Okiya Subaru: "..." Even if Jiang Xia has the habit of "feeling uncomfortable if he doesn't beat people". Assuming that it is true as he thinks, Jiang Xia is a cadre who can be on an equal footing with Usa... If he wants to beat people for fun, he can organize whatever he wants.
Why take the risk and have a picnic outside when you can bring out a lot of people to beat him.
...Maybe he is overthinking it. Jiang Xia beats people not for fun, but because he really hates those prisoners?
For a moment, Subaru Okiya seemed to have two villains fighting in his mind: one said Jiang Xia was just a detective with a very personal personality; the other said Jiang Xia was suspicious, very suspicious, and that something was wrong.
"..." Speaking of which, Subaru Okiya suddenly thought: When Mr. Akai mentioned Jiang Xia before, his tone seemed a bit strange. Maybe he knew some inside stories?
When I get back, I can try to ask...
…
In any case, this possibility of "Essence is indeed a good person" made Subaru Okiya feel a little more relaxed than before.
So in my mind, the villain who advocated "Jiangxia's problem is not a big deal" gained the upper hand again.
Okiya Subaru: "..." Thinking about it carefully, the reason why he climbed up to the attic and eavesdropped just now was because he received instructions from Uzuo Cat. If Jiang Xia and Uzuo are really partners, there is no need for Uzuo to trick him like this.
...In comparison, this is more like Wu Zuo discovered that "his little brother wanted to run to hug Jiang Xia's thigh", so he deliberately let his little brother see the other side of Jiang Xia and sow discord.
Okiya Subaru: "..." In short, before we have more basic materials, it's better not to think randomly.
He silently lowered his presence and followed Mao Lilan towards Misari Ito's house.
…
The two went up to the attic and found that the scene inside was quite harmonious.
The handcuffs of Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha have been pried open. The two of them waved their wrists and approached Kusukawa Taro to check his condition.
Jiang Xia found a piece of rope from somewhere, and together with Conan, tied up the three unconscious gangsters.
"It went really well. I didn't expect to get out of danger so easily." Hattori Heiji checked Taro Kusukawa's vital signs and found that they were quite stable, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
After a moment, he looked at Jiang Xia with curiosity: "Speaking of which, how did you find out that there was something wrong with Misari Ito?"
Conan also pricked his ears silently: when he first came to visit this "Ito" house, he could see the entrance hall from where he was, so he noticed the messy footprints on the ground.
But Jiang Xia couldn’t see it from his perspective... Why did Jiang Xia think there was something wrong with Ito Misari, so much so that she decisively gave up going to the more suspicious abandoned building to investigate and turned back directly?
Jiang Xia looked around and picked out a dark cloud-treading snow cat from behind the debris.
Then, with Subaru's trembling eyes, he stretched out his hand and pulled a small black listening device from the cat's neck:
"I'm actually not sure, but after the cat sneaked into this house, I vaguely heard some strange conversations."
As he spoke, he pulled out an earphone from his pocket and shook it towards everyone, indicating that he had listened to the live broadcast before: This earphone was very small and was not obvious when hanging on his ears. Conan had seen it once, and at that time he thought Jiang Xia
He was listening to the news - the news often broadcast some strange cases, and Conan himself often listened to it without thinking much about it.
At this time, Conan discovered the true use of the headphones. Conan was a little surprised. He squatted down and touched the cat's head, thinking thoughtfully: "Xiao Hei actually has such a wonderful use..."
Subaru Okiya's fingers trembled: How dare these people use Usa's cat as a tool cat?! Even Mr. Akai didn't dare to install a bug on the cat. Of course, it's not that he doesn't dare, he just thinks it's inappropriate...
Mao Lilan noticed his surprise and turned to look at him, thinking that the graduate student was surprised by the IQ of the black clouds and snow cat, and smiled:
"Little Hei is very smart and enthusiastic - once I forgot to bring my eraser to an exam, and he picked up a new one from nowhere and gave it to me. Because it was so cute, the teacher didn't take it seriously when he was walking around the classroom.
Drive it out..."
Okiya Subaru: "..."
He stared down at the cat on the ground, wondering for a moment whether it was the cat he knew. Why was there such a huge difference in attitudes toward high school students and him?
However, with such recollection, Okiya Subaru suddenly remembered: when he first met Xiao Hei and didn't know that it was Usa's cat, the cat seemed quite friendly.
Only later...
Okiya Subaru's mood was extremely complicated.
At the same time, thinking of his previous speculation that "Wu Zuo's aura is too strong to approach strangers and drop hints, so he asked Jiang Xia to take his place", he suddenly thought of more:
Maybe Uzo is actually using a cat to get close to strangers? - Let the cat get close to the target first, and then he goes over to talk to him as if nothing has happened. With such a pet, when others look at the cat owner, they will naturally feel a sense of intimacy.
Filter.
Moreover, Subaru Okiya thought carefully about the scene when he first saw Usa: At that time, Usa didn't seem that scary. He looked like a college student who had just left society. It was later that his image slowly changed.
Terrified.
Okiya Subaru: "..." By the way, there are those sunglasses.
Thinking about it carefully, every time I saw Uzo, he had a pair of sunglasses on his nose.
And things like sunglasses will undoubtedly have a great impact on a person's image: for example, some guys who look fierce will actually look harmless if they take off their sunglasses.
"..." To sum up, if Wu Zuo really wants to get close to the victims and guide the drama, then what he needs may not be Jiang Xia, but...
In Subaru Okiya's mind, he slowly imagined Usa taking off his sunglasses, holding a cat, and approaching the innocent "actors" with a smile on his face... Suddenly he felt that this assumption made sense.
Okiya Subaru: "..." But, what does this have to do with me?
——I will be traveling far away soon anyway. I should leave these matters to Mr. Akai to worry about...
He cut off his messy thoughts and stopped thinking about them. He was ready to run away with peace of mind before the time came.
But after thinking about it, I'm still a little curious...
"..." When we get back, we should ask Mr. Akai about Jiang Xia. I always feel like they are very secretive...
…
Police cars and ambulances arrived quickly. Police and medical staff rushed to the attic one after another.
Taro Kusukawa was the most seriously injured and was carried into an ambulance.
Unfortunately, the gangsters woke up when the police arrived, and were separated and thrown into the police car.
The car door clicked shut, blocking out their bloody accusations against the high school detective such as "intentional harm!" and "unscrupulous detective!"
