The VIP table chosen by Mao Lilan is very close to the stage.
As soon as Jiang Xia moved, Nakamura Yusuke on the stage subconsciously turned his gaze and looked at the audience who turned to him.
Seeing Jiang Xia's face clearly, he was startled.
After a brief pause, Nakamura Yusuke's eyes scanned the entire audience again and returned to the state of singing.
He continued what he just said and announced the track: "S·G's "Farewell"!"
…
Next to him, Belmode keenly captured the tiny interaction between the two.
Mao Lilan and Conan went to add food and couldn't hear them talking.
Belmod pulled the stool, leaned towards Jiang Xia, and asked in a low voice as if he was very interested: "What's the matter? Someone you know?"
"That's right." Jiang Xia glanced at her empty draft beer cup and said, "I met him at the Japanese TV station before and had a few words with him."
Belmode: "That's it..."
She recalled that when Nakamura Yusuke spoke just now, Usa looked at the stage with a slightly expectant look. She always felt that something was not right.
After feeling doubtful, I thought about it further:
Before that, when Yukiko Watanabe was singing, Usa looked at the stage several times.
At that time, Bermod felt that the position of Uzo's gaze was a bit strange. It seemed that he was not looking at the lead singer who should be the most conspicuous, but was looking slightly away.
She originally thought this was because she happened to be sitting next to Jiang Xia and the light here was very dark, which created an illusion.
But now it seems that he is looking in the direction where Uzo's gaze was shifted just now.
——What Uzo saw several times at that time was the drummer who was singing.
After discovering this, Bermod couldn't help but think of the unstandardized observation reports and cases that Gin handed her when she came to be her "psychiatrist" some time ago.
Belmod: "..." I heard that Uzo has a bad habit of randomly grabbing lucky passers-by to be extras.
In addition, according to Gin, Uzo also likes to "sow the seeds of evil in other people's hearts"... Speaking of which, Gin is obviously a killer, but sometimes he speaks in a polite manner. But in this scene
, this description is quite appropriate.
At least Belmod looked at the current situation, combined with what Uzo said just now, "I had a few chats with Nakamura Yusuke", and suddenly there was a picture in his mind: Jiangxia and Nakamura Yusuke met by chance at Nippon TV Station. While chatting casually, Uzo
Zuo's seemingly polite eyes examined the other person's heart like a cold and precise machine, and then waved his hand when saying goodbye, silently spreading a handful of terrible things into the darkness of Nakamura Yusuke's soul.
So... this drummer who is singing is also the "actor" who unfortunately was chosen by Uzo?
After coming to this conclusion, Bermod suddenly understood the reason why "Uzo always rejected him in the past, but today he suddenly agreed to go out together."
"..." Could it be that Wuzuo agreed to her invitation in order to watch and supervise the upcoming murder? This rooftop restaurant is right next to the bar they made an appointment with before, and there is probably not even a straight line distance.
More than a hundred meters. With such a distance, if something goes wrong at the rooftop restaurant, even if they are at the bar, they can rush there immediately and watch what they need to see.
Based on this, Belmode's thoughts were racing:
At first, when she sent a message to Uzo, she actually didn't expect that she would actually be able to ask someone out. So the location she chose was very random, and she just randomly picked a bar among the bars she planned to go to in the near future.
...However, there are actually not that many well-known bars that "recently launched new seasonal dessert wines".
Perhaps a few hours ago, Uzo realized through her few words of description that the bar Belmode mentioned was near the "stage" he was looking for, and that's why he agreed to the invitation.
Thinking of this, Belmod suddenly realized.
Everything seems to be explained.
——If it was just for drinking, Uzo might not come.
But add the murder and her...
I heard that Uzo has always had the habit of "drawing important audiences to watch murder dramas".
And "Belmod" is a mysterious organization cadre. Even vodka can be attracted by Uzo, and he is often forcibly dragged to "appreciate" murder cases. In this case, Belmod thought, a person of his weight can take the initiative
Delivered to the door, Uzo will not let it go...
No wonder Uzo agreed so readily before.
"..." When she thought that Uzo was just inviting her to watch the show and not intending to treat her like Bourbon, Belmod's tense mood eased a little.
After she "thought" this point, her attention quickly fell on another thing that she paid special attention to.
…
...If that's the case, what's going on with the sudden appearance of angel and cool guy?
Is it a mere chance encounter, or is it a deliberate arrangement by Uzo?
It was difficult for Belmode to come to a conclusion for a while.
At first glance, it seems that the main reason why they are sitting in this rooftop restaurant now is that Xiaolan has won a VIP seat ticket for the rooftop restaurant.
But carefully recall the process of the encounter between the two parties. If Uzo had asked for a treat, or wanted to try this newly opened restaurant, they would still come - the "accidental" content in this is actually far less high than it seems.
...anyway.
Belmode looked at Uzobi who had been paying more attention to the song after the lead singer was changed. He realized that it wouldn't be long before there would be a murder here.
Belmode: "..." Fortunately, things have developed now, and Angel is probably not that afraid of murder anymore.
The cool guy doesn't have to worry - although he really doesn't want to see his life disappear, he also really enjoys the process of solving crimes and discovering the truth...
Um?
Thinking of this, Belmode was suddenly startled:
In my impression, Uzo would not only carry out targeted assassinations when completing organizational tasks.
Usually, he prefers to create some daily cases casually.
But now that I think about it, the reason why the latter happened was, besides "Uzo himself liked it"... maybe there was also the entertainment idea of "posing a difficult problem to his friends"?
Belmod remembers that in many reports about Uzo's solving crimes, you can see a little bit of Conan.
Before, she was a little confused about this behavior, thinking that it was the cool guy who took the initiative to pursue the case. As soon as she heard that there was a murder around Jiangxia, she would rush there quickly.
...but now I think about it, if Uzo had the intention to prevent Conan from getting involved in the murder case, with his current relationship with the police, Conan, a child, would not be able to sneak into the murder scene.
So if cool guy can get close to those cases, there must be Uzo’s tacit approval behind it.
"..." After thinking about it like this, all the previous inconsistencies were immediately answered.
——These small daily cases that happen around us may be the "Daily Puzzles" that Uzo gave to the cool guy, as well as a little friendly challenge.
This heavy "truth" made Belmod feel a little complicated, and he sighed silently.
If one day, cool guy and angel discover the true face of Wuzuo "Jiang Xia" under the skin...
