Chapter 692: Reliable Belmode. Please vote for me (? ? ?)
Conan had sneaked away a lot in the past, and the naive Mao Lilan did not suspect this.
She knew that Suzuki Sonoko was indeed not good at taking care of children, but she was quite good at fighting with them... So she said something to Mouri Kogoro and Eka, and quickly returned to the room.
The two righteous little lambs who entered randomly have all escaped from the battlefield. Amuro Toru and Jiang Xia are very satisfied with this status quo.
Toru Amuro is innocent and cannot eavesdrop on other people's phone calls.
But he glanced at Mao Lilan's retreating back, and the mobile phone she held in her hand, and then thought of "Suzuki Sonoko" who left here at some point, and guessed that this was probably the work of Bermod.
This is a bit nosy. But if you think about it carefully, it seems normal. Bermod has always been a strange cadre. Most of the time, she is ruthless and has one vicious scheme after another. Sometimes she even does not hesitate to abandon a little bit of moral integrity and use beauty traps against her enemies and friends.
But sometimes, she will take the initiative to avoid hurting innocent passers-by. She is especially tolerant towards children. Maybe she has reached the age where she likes children?
Toru Amuro had a vague feeling that maybe he could dig out more of Belmod's secrets based on her habits and use them as handles or bargaining chips.
But now, it's not the time to think about this. You have to complete the tasks given by the organization first.
Toru Amuro turned around and looked. Currently, the only irrelevant person among them was Mouri Kogoro. Fortunately, Mouri Kogoro looked easy to fool and would not cause trouble easily...
Toru Amuro temporarily turned his attention away from the innocent passers-by and began to concentrate on this mission.
…
Although the police identified three suspects, they were only suspects after all, not criminals.
It was already very late, and there was no progress in the case, so Yamamura Cao asked the three of them to go back to rest, and planned to ask them to go to the police station to take notes the next day.
The other two people left quickly. Watanuki Tatsuzo did not leave the hall, but went to the vending machine and bought a bottle of hot coffee in a metal can. After opening it, he drank it slowly while looking at Jiang Xia from the corner of his eye.
Just now, the information provided by Watanuki Tatsuzo's assistant was not accurate. He only said that "a detective saw the maple tree with an old handkerchief tied around it." Watanuki Tatsuzo glanced at it and mentally assumed that the "detective" was
The more famous Jiangxia.
And now, Watanuki Tatsuzo discovered that something was not quite right about Jiang Xia's demeanor. This young man seemed to understand something, but he also seemed to be half-hearted. It was very subtle...
But all in all, one thing is for sure.
——For the murderer Watanuki Tatsuzo, this was an expression that was enough to make him sound the alarm.
…
After a few minutes, Watanuki Tatsuzo felt that his decision to observe Jiang Xia was really wise.
——Jiang Xia was pacing in the lobby of the hotel, walking here and there, pondering for a moment about the evidence secretly photographed on her mobile phone, and then suddenly, as if confirming something, she met the foreigner next to her who looked like a foreigner.
The blond man muttered something.
Then the two people turned around and left, entering the mountains.
"..." Wankuan Chensan took a breath silently, waited for a moment, and followed him as if nothing had happened.
You really can't relax at all when dealing with these detectives. If you just went back to rest, and Jiang Xia and the others found some important clues during that time, and then took the police there overnight, things would be in trouble.
Fortunately, now, thanks to his wit, everything is still under control.
Although I am not sure what the two detectives are going to do, the so-called one force can defeat ten societies - Mian Guanchen Sanzu has brought more than sixty brothers. It is very difficult to make two people disappear quietly in the mountains.
It's like raising your hand to kill two annoying mosquitoes.
…
Jiang Xia and Tohru Amuro went out together.
Considering that Watanuki Tatsuzo who followed behind him, although he was a criminal, he was still an old man.
So the two of them slowed down their pace respectfully, chatting in low voices, pretending to discuss important issues, and flashing flashlights. They walked toward the mountains not too slowly, but not too fast, maintaining the composure that adult detectives should have.
speed.
At first Watanuki Chensan was worried that he would not be able to catch up, so he sent a message to his younger brothers in advance to ask them to keep an eye on him.
However, the detectives went from thinking to going out, fast or not, but not slow either. So when the two detectives went out, Watanuki Tatsuzo followed him for a long way, and then he realized that the younger brothers were not there yet and had not returned.
His news was only followed by the assistant who was at the hotel with him.
...I don’t know if the other people are being lazy, or the signal in the mountains is not working, or they are focused on looking for things and haven’t seen the message?
Fortunately, it doesn't matter. There are more than a dozen of his brothers around all possible places where corpses are hidden. Once there is any movement, other teams will be able to rush over quickly.
With this thought in mind, Watanuki Tatsuzo continued to follow intently.
…
Ahead, two detectives were walking along the mountain road, talking in low voices as they searched, seemingly exchanging information about the case.
However, if Watanuki Tatsuzo and his assistant's hearing skills were better, they would have discovered that Jiang Xia and the others were talking about another topic entirely.
"The mission is finally over." Toru Amuro couldn't help but reveal his innermost thoughts, and his tone sounded a little relieved.
Jiang Xia nodded. In the night, the dim light from the flashlight hit his face, giving him a dark outline, making him look inexplicably heavy.
Toru Amuro glanced at him and said casually: "The name of Mud Shenhui sounds a bit rustic, but in fact it is not an honest organization. Their branches have expanded to Southeast Asia and South America, all the places you can name.
They were all involved in criminal acts... Murder and hiding corpses were commonplace, so Watanuki Tatsuzo didn't care much about the case where his assistant was killed. He only cared about the fate of his colleagues who were killed by him five years ago.
Whether the body will be exposed, in his opinion, this is the only thing that can threaten his current status - in short, we will face a group of desperadoes later, so don't take it lightly."
It seems that he is reminding Jiang Xia of the danger of this mission, but in fact he wants to tell Jiang Xia that Watanuki Tatsuzo is not a good person. After catching his mistakes and handing him over to the organization and the mud to participate in the meeting, this old guy will not live long.
, but it was his own fault, not the indirect murder by the person who caught his evidence.
However, high school detectives generally seem to value human life, whether it is a good person or a bad person.
After hearing what he said, Jiang Xia just nodded seriously to show that he would be more vigilant, but his expression did not look much relaxed.
Amuro Toru sighed inwardly and changed other topics.
…
The two of them just murmured meaningly for a while to match their deliberately slow pace.
Ten minutes later, Jiangxia and Toru Amuro stopped in front of a maple tree.
An old red handkerchief was tied to a branch, floating faintly in the night, as if summoning spirits.
