Jiang Xia originally wanted to continue last night's plan - to go to the house of Marudenjiro, the unscrupulous creditor who secretly sold the collateral, to see the situation.
However, the office still had a few customers with reservations, so Jiang Xia could only go to work for another day.
In the afternoon, Jiang Xia returned the two new cats found by the delinquents to their owners, then closed the door and left the office.
…
He followed the address on Marudenjiro's business card and searched for it. Finally he came to a single-family house with a yard.
——This is the home of the creditor Marudenjiro.
"..." The yard is quite big.
Although Marudenjiro is a rich man, like most people in this world, he does not install surveillance cameras in his yard and does not hire security guards. Breaking in is as easy as taking a walk.
Jiang Xia first went around to a nearby hill and looked down at the layout of the yard.
After memorizing the location, he put on his hat, mask, etc., climbed over the wall easily, and went straight to the warehouse on the side.
This level of security does not require the use of puppets.
——Now he is a psychic who has to raise two ghosts. The recovery of Miyano Akemi’s new skills is also linked to murderous aura. Can it be saved or not...
…
Jiang Xia entered the warehouse, compared the photos of pottery given to him by the client, and successfully found the target on the shelf.
This pottery has a three-layer hollow structure. Jiang Xia opened it from the middle and threw in a black-tech transmitter.
After the transmitter is fully charged, it can be used for nearly forty hours.
Once the pottery is sold, Jiang Xia will be able to find out immediately, and then notify the client as agreed.
Next, he only needs to come here every two days and change the transmitter, so that he can always know the location of the porcelain.
…
after a few days.
When the signal from the receiver starts to intermittent again due to insufficient battery.
Jiangxia came to Marudenjiro's house again, planning to replace the transmitter.
He walked around to the lower part of the fence, pulled up his hood, put on a mask and gloves, and jumped up to claw at the wall.
As soon as I stuck my head out, I suddenly saw a man and a woman walking out of the side room of Maru's house - they were both familiar police officers, Takagi Wataru and Sato Miwako.
Among them, Officer Sato happened to glance towards the wall, and Leng Buding and Jiang Xia met their eyes.
However, due to the obstruction of the hood, to be precise, this "looking at each other" was one-sided.
——Jiang Xia saw Officer Sato’s eyes.
And Miwako Sato...
She only saw the outline of a pair of eyes shrouded in shadow.
Officer Sato was startled for a moment and shouted sharply: "Who is there?!"
With that said, she rushed over quickly.
As soon as the police beauty spoke out, several more strong men ran out of the room. Jiang Xia glanced around and found that they were all policemen.
Jiang Xia: "..."
It's like being late and climbing over the wall to enter the school. As soon as you climb up the wall, you see an impromptu teachers' meeting being held at the bottom of the wall. This...
Jiang Xia was a little embarrassed, let go and fell down.
Through the wall, Officer Sato could be heard shouting "Stop!".
Jiang Xia thought for a while and stopped.
Illegal home invasion is indeed illegal. But in this world, this kind of behavior is rarely pursued, especially when the perpetrator is a detective.
In addition, strictly speaking, Jiang Xia has not entered the house today.
He just illegally dug into someone else's wall.
There is really no need to act like a perverted murderer and stage a sudden and passionate chase with the police.
…
However, people sometimes have different ideas.
Miwako Sato in the yard obviously did not expect that she just shouted "stop" and the suspicious person really stopped running.
So, when Jiang Xia "stopped" at the root of the wall.
Suddenly a shadow passed over his head.
"?"
Jiang Xia was startled, raised her head, and saw Officer Sato climbing up the wall easily. Then without looking away, she crossed over Jiang Xia like a hurdle and landed gracefully four or five meters away.
Immediately afterwards, without stopping for half a second, he rushed out along the street.
"Um..." Jiang Xia raised his hand towards her and wanted to call her to stop her. But as soon as he spoke, the person had already disappeared.
Jiang Xia looked at that overly muscular figure: "..."
At this time, a few small earth and stone particles fell on the wall next to it.
Jiang Xia silently raised his head.
This time, he saw another subordinate of the Megure Police Department—Takagi Wataru.
Officer Takagi struggled to climb up the wall and was about to jump down.
However, as soon as he lowered his head, he saw that the "suspicious person" who was covering his face did not run away, but was standing at the base of the wall, raising his head to watch him climb over the wall.
Officer Takagi was stunned.
The two people stood up and down, looking at each other wordlessly for nearly half a minute.
After a moment, Takagi Sheba asked hesitantly: "...What are you doing standing here?"
The "suspicious person" also hesitated to reply: "Didn't you ask me to 'stop'?"
Officer Takagi: "..." Indeed...
No, he actually wanted to ask why the suspicious person wanted to pick up the wall of someone else's house.
However, the "suspicious person" didn't run away anyway, and his attitude was pretty good, so we can wait to discuss this.
The most urgent task is to call back Officer Sato who has rushed to who knows where...
Takagi Wataru sat on the wall, took out his cell phone, and dialed the number for his beloved Sato-senpai.
…
five minutes later.
In the courtyard of Marudenjiro's house.
Jiang Xia and Sato Miwako walked in one after another.
In addition to the police, Jiang Xia was slightly surprised to find that there were several acquaintances here - Mao Lilan, Maori Kogoro, and Conan.
…
Several waves of people appeared here for different reasons.
The commission Jiang Xia received was to help the client's wife keep an eye on Marudenjiro to prevent this unscrupulous creditor from selling off the collateral in advance.
And Mouri Kogoro also received a commission. The client was Marudenjiro himself. Marudenjiro suspected that his wife had cheated on him and asked Mouri Kogoro to look for evidence.
The police are here not because of the commission, but because Marudenjiro is dead.
Just this afternoon.
…
Of course, considering that his commission included the element of "illegal entry into the house", Jiang Xia did not immediately tell the truth.
He made an excuse at random: "I was passing by just now, heard a noise here, and saw a police car outside, so I curiously went up to the wall and took a look."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Sato Miwako was doubtful: "Then why are you covering your face?"
Jiang Xia pulled up the mask and pulled down the brim of his hat. Like a vampire burned by the sun, he sighed: "Sunlight allergy."
Officer Sato: "...?"
She originally thought Jiang Xia was bluffing her.
But thinking back for a moment, Sato Miwako suddenly discovered that every time she saw Jiang Xia, it was either at night, indoors, or indoors at night... In short, she had never seen Jiang Xia sunbathing.
…
Next to him, Conan watched the conversation between the two people with a pair of dead eyes, but hesitated to speak.
He used to go to the doctor's house to play, and when he stood on the balcony and looked at Miwa Town, he often saw Jiang Xia carrying a deck chair and spreading it out next door to bask in the sun.
But in the end, Conan still didn't expose it.
——According to his judgment, Jiang Xia should not be the murderer.
When Conan was playing in the yard just now, he actually saw the murderer's feet from under the bushes.
That man was wearing very serious trousers and leather shoes. It was completely different from Jiang Xia's dress.
Moreover, Jiang Xia is a detective, so there is no way he would commit suicide by committing suicide by going back to the scene after killing someone.
…
Although Officer Sato still has some questions.
But at this time, the crime scene was in the hut.
The Megure Police Department finally had enough of Kogoro Mori's sudden reasoning.
He pushed open the sliding door and looked over. Then he waved his chubby hand towards Jiang Xia, implying expectation.
——The Mumu Police Department also heard about Jiang Xia’s climbing on the wall and knew that he was suspicious.
But being suspicious is suspicious, and there is no conflict with listening to Jiang Xia's reasoning.
After all, solving a case is all about evidence. In the past, when detectives were reasoning, no one asked them to prove their innocence first.
There are even many major suspects who demonstrate their reasoning on the spot in order to prove their innocence.
Compared with them, at least Jiang Xia solved the case quickly and professionally...
