In addition, Jiang Xia thought, in addition to battling wits and courage with the strange jellyfish skin, there were also outside matters that needed to be taken care of.
——Although Gin did indeed remove the helpers sent into the banquet hall as he said.
But today, in addition to gin, there is also Belmode.
Jiang Xia recalled the reasons he had mentioned for "asking the helpers to retreat", and then found that none of them seemed to be able to stop the Thousand-Faced Witch from sneaking into the banquet hall.
——She has rich experience in stalking; as a celebrity, she has participated in countless banquets. On such occasions, her behavior will not be unnatural; as for the "recurring" strange faces, this is not a problem for this person who is good at disguise.
people...
In short, in the eyes of the helpers, Belmode will not arouse Sindora's vigilance and will not cause trouble to Uzo.
If Belmod had followed the arrangement and waited quietly outside, it would have been easier to deal with.
But Jiang Xia thought that if she was busy looking for ghosts later, the connection with the black helpers was temporarily cut off, and Belmode came in in disguise to look for him. Then she didn't find him, but happened to meet Haiyuan Ai...
If I remember correctly, Belmod has wanted to kill Shirley for a long time.
Jiang Xia: "..." Don't forget that my sister has just been found and her sister is gone again.
He didn't want to carry around a limp ghost who cried until he was dehydrated.
…
In the banquet hall.
Although Haibara Ai is also somewhat curious about that "holographic game that allows you to experience history", she is only at the level of curiosity.
Knowing that she couldn't experience it without a badge, she stopped worrying about it and quickly focused on the buffet provided at the banquet. No one was at home tonight, and the neighbors were all at the banquet. She was too lazy to cook it alone. Now
not yet eat.
He was holding the tray and picked up the dining tote, intending to pick up a lobster.
At this moment, someone suddenly put an arm around her shoulder from behind.
Hui Yuan Ai was startled and turned back quickly.
Seeing the person behind her clearly, she breathed a sigh of relief: "What's wrong?"
"I don't feel very well. Come with me to the lounge next to you for a while." Jiang Xia is very skilled at asking for sick leave, and this kind of excuse is always readily available.
Time was running out, so he didn't give Haihara Ai any time to hesitate. He reached out and took away the plate and folder from the fake child's hands, wiped off his fingerprints, and handed them to the passing waiter.
Hui Yuan Ai vaguely felt something was wrong.
She followed Jiang Xia and walked quickly to the lounge. At the same time, she secretly looked around nervously.
——She knows that Jiang Xia is connected with the organization and sometimes participates in some tasks.
In the past, Jiang Xia had reminded her many times that "there were members of the organization around her."
And this time, although Jiang Xia didn't say it clearly, the reason for suddenly calling her away may be the same.
…
Sure enough, as soon as the two entered the corridor.
Hui Yuan Ai heard Jiang Xia ask: "Have you brought the doctor's quick-acting hair dye? Dye it first."
——Ever since Haibara Ai was exposed to Gin because of her special burgundy hair, she blamed herself and tried many remedies.
This also includes changing your hairstyle and hair color.
But often when I wake up from bed, my hairstyle will look the same as it did when I wake up, and it has no effect.
…
Fortunately, later on, the miraculous Dr. Ali developed a quick-acting hair dye. It can change the hair color in a short time. When used in conjunction with a hood, the effect is even better.
When Haihara Ai heard Jiang Xia mention hair dye, she became even more nervous, and even felt that she smelled the terrible smell of gin.
Fortunately, this corridor was relatively closed, and there were no suspicious people on both sides. There was also Jiang Xia blocking the corridor, which made Haiyuan Ai calm down a little.
"Bring it." She hurriedly rummaged through her pocket, found a small spray bottle, and sprayed it on her hair.
Jiang Xia seemed to be able to see through her thoughts. While she was busy pretending, she whispered: "Don't be nervous. If nothing else happens, no one will come in. It's just that they happen to be nearby."
"Yes." Hui Yuan Ai carefully combed his hair while following Jiang Xia into the most remote rest room.
…
As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Xia locked the door with a click.
Then he walked to the window and the window was locked.
Hui Yuan Ai had finished dyeing her hair at this time. She walked to Jiang Xia in small steps and helped him close the curtains.
Jiang Xia: "..." Really self-conscious.
He touched his pocket, took out what he took out, and handed it to Haiyuan Ai.
Hui Yuan Ai took it in confusion, and after a closer look, she found that there were five packs of unopened cigarettes.
She held those exquisitely packaged small boxes and was a little confused: "...?"
Why do you carry so many cigarettes with you?
Is Jiangxia so addicted to cigarettes?
It's not like that...
…
"Come here."
Jiang Xia walked to the bedroom door.
This lounge is a suite.
In addition to the living room where they are now, there is a small bedroom further inside.
After Haiyuan Ai approached, Jiang Xia put the ashtray next to her.
Then he took out an opened pack of cigarettes, took out a cigarette and lit it.
He placed the lit cigarette on the ashtray.
The rest was still handed over to Hui Yuan Ai:
"You wait at the door of the bedroom later. When the cigarette goes out, light another one. Keep going and don't stop... Yeah, but don't light too much and save a little. I'll go in and take a nap.
"——By the way, if there is a sudden power outage or other abnormalities, remember to stay where you are and don't move around."
…
According to Jiang Xia's estimation, if things go well, he can get his ghost out without murderous intent.
However, I think of those vaguely sensed "jellyfish skin fragments"...
He felt that to be on the safe side, it was best to leave an artificial murderous aura supply machine outside.
Haihara Ai should be able to do such a simple job well - after all, she is also the only sister of the murdered ghost, and her IQ is above the line.
Moreover, judging from the situation just now, it is safer to leave a real person responsible for lighting the ghost mint than leaving a ghost puppet.
——If a ghost left alone is snatched away, not only will one ghost be missing, but a cigarette butt may also fall onto the carpet, causing a fire.
In addition, the murderous aura that has entered the pattern space is tainted with the aura of the spiritual medium.
Unless the medium consciously uses it to feed the wild ghosts outside, the ignited murderous mist can only be absorbed by the medium and the ghosts signed by him.
You won't suddenly breastfeed your enemy without any distinction.
And without the bonus of murderous intent, it is difficult for the soul to shake the real world - even a big ghost with extraordinary talents like a mermaid, when he scratches a person with all his strength, it is at most like scratching an itch.
Those jellyfish skins just now couldn't even blow away his non-original soul. It's even more impossible to shake an original real person like Haiyuan Ai...
Human helpers are indeed very useful. The anonymous peripheral members who were collected casually have been used for purposes other than "cooking"...
