After Toru Amuro came up with that speculation, he looked at Anonymous and said in a deep voice: "Where is Jiang Xia?"
After a pause, he couldn't help it anymore and asked again: "Did you puncture my tire? Have you been following us?"
"..." Anonymous's hand, which was adjusting the hem of her skirt, paused suspiciously.
Amuro Toru was startled, his eyes became sharp, and he began to think about which question he was asking, and he got to the point.
However, Anonymous only chose the last question and answered: "I didn't follow you on purpose."
Toru Amuro didn't believe it.
In just a few days, he has met Anonymous twice. Once, Anonymous even came to him on his own initiative: "You don't mean to say that these are all coincidences."
"It's not a coincidence, but it's not intentional either." Anonymous took a step back and smiled meaningfully, "I'm here just because... we are everywhere."
...After all, as we all know, there are countless anonymous clones, anyone can be "Anonymous", and "Anonymous" can be anyone.
As soon as he finished speaking, Amuro Toubin didn't wait for the mysterious words to be understood.
Anonymous suddenly turned around, stepped out of the eaves, and instantly fell into the thick darkness below.
Toru Amuro: "...?"
He didn't expect that someone was having a good conversation and suddenly wanted to jump off the building. He subconsciously took a step towards the window and tried to catch the person, but failed.
Amuro Toru was silent for a moment, then turned around and planned to run back to the tower to check the situation.
However, as soon as he turned around, he met the shocked gaze of Suzuki Sonoko.
Suzuki Sonoko said in horror: "You...you pushed the person down?!"
"..." Toru Amuro was silent for a moment while holding the new pot, and suddenly thought that he might have mistakenly blamed Anonymous just now.
He sighed: "I want to hold her..."
…
Jiang Xia dispersed the puppet in mid-air, and his consciousness returned to his original body.
The main body is still in the secret passage of the castle.
Jiang Xia waited quietly for a while.
Not long after, I saw Miyano Akemi leading a group of shikigami, lining up and floating back through the wall.
Jiang Xia's eyes lit up slightly, and she rubbed Miyano Akemi's head as a sign of encouragement. Then she picked up the souls one by one, folded them, and signed the contract.
After that, he looked around and began to wander around, preparing to "encounter" the people who came to see him.
——The structure of this castle is complex, with secret passages crisscrossing it, and secret doors that are also very hidden. If you are not careful, you will get lost.
Coupled with the deliberate obstruction by "an anonymous person with a strange attitude", it was normal for Jiang Xia to wander around there for several hours.
…
After Anonymous suddenly jumped from the tower, the four people on the top of the tower quickly chased him down, but they were not too panicked - with the news of Anonymous jumping on the Shinkansen with a bomb in his arms, they always felt that Anonymous would not die just by jumping from a tower.
Facts have proved that these people were right.
Under the tower, there were no anonymous bodies at all.
There is only the body of an "old lady".
Although human life was at stake, the four of them could not determine the position of the others in the castle, so they did not rush to find the helpers to collect the bodies. Instead, they sneaked into the secret passage of the castle and concentrated on looking for people.
They successfully found Jiang Xia.
…
After Jiang Xia reunited with his teammates, he briefly explained a few words and then told them: There was a skeleton in the secret passage. The skeleton's foot bones were thin and it seemed to be an elderly woman.
As expected, the attention of the other four people was quickly sucked away by the corpse, especially the two detectives.
——They immediately thought of the "old lady" who fell to death under the tower, and gradually figured out the cause and effect.
…
The next day, the phone line was repaired.
The police arrived quickly, and the car called by Toru Amuro also arrived.
When Toru Amuro opened the trunk and checked the tires inside, Jiang Xia also moved over to take a look. This time, the tires were actually installed in a locked metal box.
Jiang Xia: "..."
He was shocked for a moment, but soon became relaxed again.
——If he really encounters another case later, he doesn’t need to bite the spare tire at all. He can just hide it under the car and damage the other tire casually while others are not paying attention. There is no way Tohru Amuro can bring four.
Spare tire on the road.
Unfortunately, however, the journey back was very peaceful and no further incidents occurred.
When they saw the familiar streets of Mikka Town, the five people in the car exhaled at the same time.
Four of them were thankful to have finally arrived at their destination.
The other one had a hint of subtle regret.
…
Organizational services also have specific rules and regulations.
For example, you need to write a report after completing a task.
This was originally Toru Amuro's job, but Toru Amuro left this matter to his nominal apprentice.
…
After Jiang Xia returned to Tokyo, she first went to Dr. Ali's house and brought back the cats and dogs left there.
——He has not been at home these days, but the bad guys have not stopped looking for cats and dogs. The pets they picked up need someone to take care of them.
So Jiang Xia used his tool man, the neighbor Dr. A Li.
In the past, when he helped Dr. A Li test new inventions, he often got bombed, so Jiang Xia was particularly confident when he troubled his neighbors.
…
Jiang Xia came to the office with her pet, and while waiting for business in the store, she wrote a task report according to the sample given by Toru Amuro.
By evening, he successfully completed the work.
I want to send a report to a specific email address.
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang.
——Listen to the ringtone, it’s the black one, which is the dedicated machine for contacting the organization.
"...?" Jiang Xia was stunned and picked up the phone.
Gin's voice came from the receiver: "Where are you now?"
Jiang Xia tasted this sentence and felt that something was unusual.
——When Gin sends out tasks, he usually goes straight to the task, which saves time. It is never inconvenient to ask the other party with thoughtful words such as "Where are you" and "Are you free?" first.
So... the "where are you" here is probably similar to the police investigation of alibi?
Jiang Xia: "..."
Speaking of it, I always feel that Gin's tone is murderous.
It's a pity that I'm not next to him now, otherwise I would definitely have saved a lot...
Jiang Xia listened to the voice in the earphones with regret, and pinched the ghost on her leg sadly: "In the office."
As he spoke, he glanced at the gloomy sky outside the window.
Just now, as soon as Jiang Xia moved the cats and dogs in, it started to rain.
This weather, plus this time...
He suddenly thought: Could it be that Shirley defected?
Sure enough, Gin mentioned this code name in his next sentence.
But before he could finish speaking, the back of the sofa where Jiang Xia was leaning was suddenly knocked on.
Jiang Xia turned around and saw Toru Amuro who had come back at some point. At this moment, he was standing behind him without a trace, extending his hand towards him.
