Chapter 115 These people are very suitable to be witnesses
Jiang Xia pushed the door open, walked to the counter like every customer who orders food, and ordered a drink.
While looking for a seat, he passed by a Maori table and was stopped as expected.
Mao Lilan waved to him happily: "What a coincidence! Are you also coming to see Miss Yoko's concert?" She remembered that Jiang Xia often lent her father some albums that were difficult to buy.
Jiang Xia nodded and took this as an opportunity to successfully join the professional ghost picking team - the others were responsible for luring and producing, and he was responsible for picking up. He walked to the table, pulled out a chair and sat down.
Across the table, Mouri Kogoro looked disheveled and hesitated to speak to Jiang Xia.
Mouri Kogoro is a fan of Kinoshita Yoko. Of course he also bought a ticket for the concert, but when he touched his pocket just now, he discovered that there was a hole in the inside of the pocket and the ticket had fallen into nowhere.
Just when he was anxious, he was lucky enough to meet Jiang Xia - Mouri Kogoro remembered that Jiang Xia had a good relationship with Kinoshita Yoko, so he wanted to hug her in a low-key way.
However, it always felt a bit embarrassing to ask a junior to take him through the back door to sneak into an idol's concert. So Mouri Kogoro was embarrassed to say it directly. He only hoped that Jiang Xia could understand his longing eyes and take the initiative to help him like before.
Provide a little help in his pursuit of stardom.
However, for some reason, Jiang Xia, who used to be so considerate that he seemed to be able to read minds, seemed to be a different person today - Jiang Xia didn't receive his hint at all, and didn't even look towards him. She just focused on holding the paper cup.
He lowered his head and drank the juice silently.
…
Jiang Xia had long been aware of Mouri Kogoro's burning gaze, and he deliberately pretended not to see it.
In normal times, Jiang Xia would have led Mouri Kogoro into the venue without saying a word - even if the door was closed, he would have to cut through the wall to send the Shinigami in. No matter how happy he was to listen to the concert with them, he would watch it by the way.
See if there are any lost ghosts...
But not today.
Today, Kogoro Mori would be better off taking another approach.
Thinking like this, Jiang Xia's eyes turned slightly and landed on the short-haired woman next to the public phone.
The woman is wearing a wide-brimmed black headband on her forehead. This is a bonus item included in the Yoko Kinoshita commemorative album, which was just released yesterday.
The short-haired woman—that is, Qingdao Quandai—called several times before the call was finally answered.
She showed an expression of joy, but as soon as she heard the sentence, she realized that she had been cheated.
So he immediately became furious: "You can't come with a cold?! What's the point of resting from such a minor illness! You don't think it's easy to get concert tickets, do you? I don't care, you come to pick me and my sister up right away!"
What she responded to was the sound of "beep——" and "beep——" as the other party picked up the phone.
Qingdao Quandai's expression was extremely ugly, and she slammed the receiver back onto the phone.
There were not many customers in this store, and the store was not very big. And because Jiang Xia kept looking over there, the three people sitting with him unconsciously paid some attention to Qingdao Quandai.
Mouri Kogoro's eyes lit up when he heard Qingdao Quandai's conversation just now. He keenly captured the two key words "concert ticket" and "can't come".
He immediately realized that he had the ticket.
Mouri Kogoro stood up and hurriedly walked to Qingdao Quandai, wanting to buy the extra ticket.
Qingdao Quandai held his chin and thought for a moment, then suddenly pursed his lips and smiled: "No need to buy it, you can just use the ticket. It's a waste if I keep it anyway. But you have to do me a favor..."
…
The "help" proposed by Qingdao Quandai was to ask Mouri Kogoro to take her to her sister's house, and then drive the two sisters back to attend the concert.
Mouri Kogoro readily agreed, feeling that he had earned a lot.
After getting in the car, he started the car and glanced at the rearview mirror out of habit, and suddenly found that there was an extra person in the back seat.
Mouri Kogoro turned around and looked at Jiang Xia doubtfully: "Why are you following me? Did you lose your ticket too?"
Jiang Xia held the straw in his mouth and began to make up excuses in a perfunctory manner. In his normal state, Mouri Kogoro was easy to fool, so he could just say anything.
But before he could speak, Mao Lilan next to her suddenly raised her hand and pressed her father's face, pushing Mao Li Kogoro's head back to its normal position: "Isn't this better? There are more people and it's more lively."
...Jiang Xia must have suddenly realized the beauty of being with friends after meeting them, and didn't want to go to the concert alone anymore, so she mustered up the courage to follow them uninvited, but her father
The meaning behind the words was to ask Jiang Xia to get off the bus... This is too much!
Thinking of this, Mao Lilan snorted, crossed her arms and said non-negotiably: "The space in the back seat is quite enough - Conan doesn't take up any space. When the Qingdao lady gets in the car, if the seat is really not big enough, I can still hold him
Hold him."
Jiang Xia caught a glimpse of Conan stiffening out of the corner of his eye.
Then he saw the misbehaving primary school student blushing silently. At the same time, Conan turned his face and secretly gave Jiang Xia a look of gratitude and learning, saying, "You are such a talent."
Jiang Xia: "..." You have LSP eyes, so you look like an LSP to everyone.
Conan failed to understand what Jiang Xia meant. He withdrew his gaze, leaned back in his seat shyly and expectantly, and began to think about a bright future.
…
Qingdao Quandai was sitting in the passenger seat. On the way, she chatted with a few people very talkatively.
She cleverly brought the topic to her sister, saying that her sister was about to get married recently, but she was in a very bad mood. So she got tickets and wanted to invite her sister and brother-in-law to the concert. But tonight, the agreed time came
, her sister never showed up and could not be contacted. She was a little worried and planned to go home to pick her up.
Mouri Kogoro was not interested in these short-lived parents. He glanced at Qingdao Quandai's headband: "I have always wanted to ask, is that on your head..."
"It's a gift from the album released yesterday. In addition to this, I also got a keychain of the same style." Qingdao Quandai pointed to the headband with "yoko-" printed on it.
After saying that, she felt a little strange: "None of you have any?" Since you can get Miss Yoko's concert tickets, you should also be able to buy yesterday's album. Why...
Mouri Kogoro sighed: "I almost bought it, but I met a talkative client on the way, which delayed my time. That guy wouldn't even buy it——"
As he said that, he pointed to Jiang Xia in the back row: "He has helped Miss Yoko before, and he also went to the 'Perspective Detective Agency' with Miss Yoko. They have a good relationship, so his albums are all sent directly by Yoko.
There are no gifts." In these words of Mouri Kogoro, there was a bit of pride and showoff hidden in "My acquaintance knows Ms. Yoko!"
He originally thought that Aoshima Zendai, as a fan of Kinoshita Yoko, would look envious and even scream in surprise when he heard this.
In fact, Qingdao Quandai's reaction was even more exaggerated than he expected - she froze on the spot, and the peripheral key ring in her hand fell onto the armrest box and slid along the box lid to the ground in the rear row.
