Hearing Curaçao sneezing, the enthusiastic detective nearby looked away from the crime scene and turned his head to look over: "Are you cold?"
Curacao looked at him suspiciously: "..." Were you plotting against me just now?
Jiang Xia was stared at by her, showing an innocent and confused expression.
Curacao suddenly came to his senses and stopped talking to him. Instead, he quietly moved away and walked around to the other side of Mrs. Sunda.
Then she tightened her coat and looked at the Xun family mansion in front of her.
This is the residence of "Lawyer Xun" who came to Jiang Xia to discuss his wife's affair at noon. Coincidentally, it is right next door to Furukawa's house.
Just now, when the group of them finished solving the Furukawa family's case and were tiredly preparing to return to the hotel, a mournful cry came from the mansion next to them.
——Lawyer Xun came home from work and found that his wife had been killed in the bathtub.
So the police who were just about to get off work turned around and came back to work overtime, and they who were just about to leave had to stop because there was a famous detective among them who was enthusiastic about helping the police solve the case.
The police quickly sealed off the mansion and began collecting evidence at the scene.
Among the busy police officers, Curacao stood numbly in the yard. Police cars were parked side by side outside the yard, and red and blue police lights flashed across, illuminating her face.
This color scheme would have put Curacao on high alert and immediately planned an escape route in his mind.
But now, she desperately found that she had begun to get used to it: there were too many police officers she had seen recently.
"No, cheer up. This must also be Uzo's conspiracy." Curacao quietly bit the tip of his tongue, trying to clear up his brain that was hit by one case after another. "If my sensitivity to the police decreases, I will go to the police."
What should I do if he uses this to trick me?"
She must be alert to the police at all times like she is now.
...but she is surrounded by police all the time.
"It's just Uzo's little trick, we can't just give in." Curacao took a few deep breaths silently, "Isn't it endurance? I have plenty of it."
…
Jiang Xia glanced at the aloe vera that flickered on and off, and then looked at Maya Hashimoto who was leaning at the gate pretending to be dead, and found that there might have been a lot of cases recently, and the two of them were not used to this kind of work, and they didn't even have murderous intent.
It was strong before. Even if it faltered occasionally, it would quickly shrink back.
Jiang Xia sighed and suddenly thought of another person.
Jiang Xia: "..." Speaking of which, where is the boss?
I promised to follow them nearby, but why didn't I show up this time? He must have run away in the middle, you damn paddle monster.
After silently making a mental note to his unmotivated boss, Jiang Xia stopped wandering around and entered the room - no matter what, a qualified detective would never ignore a murder case presented to him.
...so do psychics.
…
Lawyer Xun has a good income and a large house. This makes the police who are collecting evidence everywhere busy.
Jiang Xia stepped into the entrance hall, passed through a group of tired police officers, and entered the hall.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a middle-aged man sitting on the sofa. He was pressing his temples painfully and his expression was very sad.
The Memu Police Department was sitting next to him, comforting him and understanding the general situation.
Seeing Jiang Xia come in, the police officer's eyes lit up.
...but recently he was really tired from running around the scene, so he could only show a short-term vitality like a light bulb with bad contact.
He stood up, sighed tiredly, and guided Jiang Xia: "The place where the body was found is the bathroom, right over here."
If it were a normal scene, the detective would probably rush directly to the body to confirm the situation.
But this time, detectives and police were present at the same time, so of course the police had to go in first to fix the evidence.
At this time, Jiang Xia followed the Mumu Police Department into the bathroom and saw several black and white positioning signs next to the expensive bathtub, with a young woman lying in the bathtub.
The woman's hands and feet were tied, and her mouth and nose were covered with thick cloth. She leaned against the wall of the bathtub, with her legs curled up, lying on her back in the bathtub. This person had obviously been dead for some time, and her body was quite stiff.
Jiang Xia understood something: "Is this Lawyer Xun's wife?"
Maya Hashimoto: "?!"
When Jiang Xia passed by the door just now, he pulled him in. When Maya Hashimoto heard these words, he immediately remembered the young female voice he heard when he answered the phone for Lawyer Xun in the hotel.
Maya Hashimoto: "..."
...is he really still dead?
He had guessed before that the "Mrs. Xun" on the phone might be a recording left after his death, but who knew it wasn't. So he thought he was overthinking it... Who knew it wasn't!
Wait, if you calculate it this way, there will be one incident the day before yesterday, two incidents yesterday, and three incidents today...
As he counted, Hashimoto Maya silently got goosebumps: That terrible thing... Well, that resourceful and scheming boss seemed to have heard his conjecture and used his life to complete the sequence.
.
Will it be four tomorrow...
Maya Hashimoto slapped herself on the face, interrupting the terrible conjecture: Stop thinking about it, what if Uzo realizes it again!
It’s better to think more about world peace in your mind.
Mumu Police Department was taking people to see the body when suddenly he heard a snapping sound behind him. He was startled, and when he turned around in shock, he found that the newly appointed detective assistant brought by Jiang Xia was beating himself.
Memu Police Department: "...are you okay?"
For a moment, Maya Hashimoto wanted to nod vigorously and ask the police uncle to save her from the sea of misery.
But looking at this group of policemen who were being fooled and who were diligently helping Uzuo deal with the aftermath every day, he could only silently push back all his thoughts: "It's okay, it's just that I talked to this lady on the phone at noon.
When I think about people dying in the blink of an eye - when I think about how unpredictable things are, I can't help but regret that I couldn't help her."
Mumu Police Department: "..." You actually slap yourself for someone you have never even met. You are a very nice person.
But this new news made him startled: "Have you contacted this lady at noon?"
Maya Hashimoto nodded numbly.
After clicking, I suddenly felt something was wrong: this sounded too much like a suspect.
Maya Hashimoto could only cheer up and quickly elaborated: "Actually, Lawyer Xun asked Jiang Xia to entrust him with something, and I also went to study with him. It happened that when Lawyer Xun was in the bathroom, Mrs. Xun called him.
Just let me pick up the phone and give him a few words."
Jiang Xia nodded to confirm his statement.
"I see." The Megure Police Department actually didn't doubt Maya Hashimoto, but since this man insisted on explaining, he couldn't stop him.
He continued what he just said: "The deceased's name is Xun Hemei, the wife of Xun's lawyer. She was 27 years old this year. The cause of death was strangulation and suffocation - alas, everyone was tied into rice dumplings. It was definitely not a suicide this time."
Maya Hashimoto: "..." Heh, he said it as if he had committed suicide before.
