After Jiang Xia returned to consciousness, she left the stairwell and walked quietly to the bathroom. She happened to hear Tequila calling in a thick Osaka accent: "Hello? It's me, Tequila. Don't worry, vodka. The deal is done.
Hey, I will go over to meet you before evening, please remember to tell Gin."
In just one sentence, the codenames of three people were exposed, and the point was precise.
When Tequila hung up the phone and was about to go into the bathroom to check her briefcase, Jiang Xia took out her cell phone and sent an email.
Soon, his cell phone rang.
Jiang Xia picked up the phone.
"'There's something wrong in the tequila bag'?" Gin's murderous voice came from the receiver. He repeated what Jiang Xia had just sent, and then said in a cold tone, "You'd better explain clearly.
Why did you suddenly send this email to Vodka?" This is obviously Tequila's mission.
Jiang Xia had just finished using the puppet and had consumed some energy. She was a little hungry after listening to the phone.
He casually picked up a ghost, took a sip like a cat to satisfy his craving, and used the two seconds to pretend to organize his words.
After that, Jiang Xia returned to the normal tone she should have when facing her boss.
He briefly explained the matter of the luggage storage tag being exchanged: "..., I didn't intend to take care of it, but suddenly the luggage tag was handed over to Tequila. This man was dressed like vodka. When I saw him
I have always been a little concerned and suspected that he was one of our members, so I followed him to have a look, and then I heard him announcing himself and your agent on the phone..."
boom--
A fire suddenly lit up in the corridor, and almost at the same time, a series of loud noises came from the direction of the bathroom.
Brother Pingtou was very determined to kill Nakajima. He didn't know how many bombs he had stuffed into his bag. Jiang Xia's ears were numb from the shock even after he left for some distance.
After the air wave passed, he put down his cell phone and quickly ran to the bathroom, ready to see if there was any ghost that had been stunned by the explosion. If so, he could teach it how to take revenge.
…
Gin heard the explosion and realized that there was another problem with this mission. He suddenly stood up and went out with a sullen face.
Vodka also heard the violent sound in the receiver. He was startled and followed Gin: "Brother, something happened?"
"I'm afraid Tequila is in trouble." Gin thought of what Jiang Xia said just now, and subconsciously looked at Vodka, and then recalled Tequila's appearance, and found that the two people were really similar, especially their clothes.
Since Jiang Xia can prosper in the detective industry, it makes sense that he has this level of observation and association skills. And after being in the organization for a long time, he will indeed have a special aura. Gin Jiu is not too
I doubt what Jiang Xia said just now.
In addition, Jiang Xia did not remind Tequila, but sent them a message first, which is actually very reasonable - if Jiang Xia went directly to stop Tequila and mentioned the mission, Tequila would definitely be very alert.
He even attacked this stranger who seemed to know the identity of his organization. Rather than a sudden fight between the two, it would be more appropriate to exchange information through people they both knew.
As for the fact that there was a bomb in the briefcase... Gin felt that this was indeed an unexpected surprise.
When Jiang Xia described to him just now that the luggage tags were secretly exchanged by Flathead, Gin had suspected that Flathead knew about the deal between the organization and Nakajima and was deliberately blocking it; he also suspected that Flathead wanted to find an opportunity to exchange Nakajima's bag.
Important items in the bag so that this colleague could be criticized and other workplace infighting... In short, he did not expect that there would be a bomb in the bag. Jiang Xia probably had the same idea.
Thinking of this, Gin became a little irritated. This group of murderers regardless of occasion is really the eternal enemy of the organization, and they will come out from time to time to cause trouble for them.
When he came to the car, Gin held the phone to his ear again and asked again: "Can you hear me?"
He felt that with Jiang Xia's caution, he probably wouldn't have been too close to Tequila when he made the call just now.
Moreover, the phone was still able to maintain the call, so Jiang Xia should still be alive. He had not spoken just now. He was probably just shocked by the sudden explosion, or was suddenly impacted by the explosion, and his eardrums had not yet recovered.
Now after some time, Ginjiu asked again, and Jiang Xia answered as expected: "Yes."
After a pause, Jiang Xia pressed his still aching ear and said with a heavy heart: "Tequila is dead." He didn't give birth to a ghost at all, he just turned into an ordinary shikigami... which is too much.
Gin frowned when he heard this. He had not recruited many people recently, but now he suddenly lost one.
However, things have happened. Rather than worrying, what is more important now is how to deal with the aftermath.
Fortunately, Jiangxia is near Tequila, otherwise we would have lost all our money this time...
Gin said in a deep voice: "With that information, you should be able to identify the transaction partner."
Jiang Xia: "Okay."
Although he had one more task, he did not feel unhappy because he had to work overtime.
This was originally the purpose of Jiang Xia's call - suddenly there was one less capable colleague, the colleague died at the hands of an ordinary passer-by, and almost lost human and financial information... Gin must be full of murderous intent now.
.
If you just report today's events to Gin, then a phone call or email is enough. You may not be able to contact a real person. But with the information, it is very different. Gin will have to come and get the information.
This is one of the reasons why Jiangxia took the initiative to contact Gin and Vodka.
Another reason, of course, is to clear himself of suspicion.
As a famous detective, as long as Jiang Xia is at the scene of the explosion, whether he goes to solve the case or not, he will definitely be reported by the media. At that time, if Gin and Vodka see the news, they know that Jiang Xia was also nearby when Tequila died.
, and also witnessed the whole process of Tequila's death...explaining it then would definitely not be as effective as taking the initiative to explain it now.
As for sneaking away without solving the case, this can indeed save the trouble of being suspected by the organization, but it is not easy to escape the sight of the police - there is surveillance at the door of this building, and a bombing suddenly occurred, everyone who has been here will be
Police inquiry and investigation.
As a detective who seems to have a very sense of justice, Jiang Xia sneaked away without saying a word after encountering an explosion, which is a bit abnormal. Although an occasional violation will not cause him to be suspected by the police, he may not be able to pinpoint him in the future.
What else will you do? If there are too many doubt points, it is definitely not a good thing.
With this thought in mind, Jiang Xia left the smoking bathroom and headed to the lobby.
The explosion was loud and the hall was very chaotic. Jiang Xia once again recruited the Xiaobai puppet. He drove the puppet to avoid surveillance, stole two briefcases in the locker, and found a place to hide them.
After that, Jiang Xia took back the puppet, first found Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko, and then went to the explosion site with them, intending to show her face in front of the police first.
