Chapter 351 A lot of bad guys (two in one chapter)
So Toru Amuro's thoughts turned elsewhere - the situation was somewhat different from what he expected. He thought that Bellmode was here for Shirley. However, judging from Jiang Xia's words, although she mentioned Shirley, Shirley
But that's not the point of what she said.
So why should Bellmode pay attention to a high school detective? Theoretically speaking, if Kudo Shinichi is really not dead, this is definitely a major mistake in Gin's work. Is Bellmode trying to catch Gin's mistakes?
She came to Jiang Xia because Jiang Xia and Kudo Shinichi were classmates, and there were rumors that "Kudo Shinichi was possessed by the dead soul." So Belmode, like the black-skinned high school detective from the West, felt that Jiang Xia solved the case suddenly.
Is it faster because Kudo Shinichi, who faked his own death, is giving guidance behind the scenes?
...that makes sense.
In addition, we should really check whether Kudo Shinichi is dead.
Speaking of which...
Toru Amuro looked at Jiangxia next to him and suddenly asked: "I heard that you are not only Kudo Shinichi's classmate, but also his neighbor. What do you think? Is he really dead?"
Jiang Xia, who was still pretending to be hungover, was startled.
...Is it so direct?
He was pretending to be asleep and telling the truth. He hesitated for a second before lying, and then quickly ruled out telling the truth.
After thinking carefully for a long time, Jiang Xia closed her eyes and whispered: "I should be dead."
He made some calculations in his mind: At present, Toru Amuro doesn't know that in Jiangxia, he has fallen off the horse and fallen into the lower reaches of the valley. So in Toru Amuro's eyes, Jiangxia doesn't know that he is a policeman, and still treats him as an organization.
Treat it as "Bourbon".
If Toru Amuro is told that Kudo Shinichi is indeed alive at this time, it will undoubtedly provide the organization with a very useful piece of information.
Although Jiangxia himself knew that Toru Amuro was a spy in the science world and would not take the initiative to attack innocent citizens who had no vengeance, even if Conan lost his vest to Toru Amuro, he would not be captured and taken back to the organization's laboratory for dissection... But Toru Amuro did not
I wonder if Jiang Xia knows this.
If Jiang Xia revealed the whereabouts of Kudou Shinichi at this time, he would undoubtedly be betraying his classmates and helping others to do evil, and he would easily be targeted by the Red Party as a sinister person.
...Sigh, it’s really tiring to deal with the sock-taker. Every time I talk about business, I have to jump back and forth between countless positions several times to figure out what to say in order to maintain my image and painlessly get involved in the case.
…
Of course, since Conan contacted the police using Kudo Shinichi's voice, if Toru Amuro wanted to investigate, even if he didn't expect that Kudo Shinichi had become smaller, he would soon know that Kudo Shinichi was actually still alive.
In this way, the long period of thinking before Jiang Xia's answer can be seen as a struggle between lying and telling the truth. The reason for the struggle can be understood as the boss Toru Amuro is quite kind, and Jiang Xia does not want to be so
Lie to him decisively... you can save a small boat of friendship.
Toru Amuro seemed to sense a problem from the tone of Jiang Xia's answer. He glanced at him out of the corner of his eye. He didn't ask any more questions on his face, but in his heart he had already put the search for relevant information on Kudo Shinichi on the agenda.
This matter is suppressed for the time being and brought to an end.
Toru Amuro talked about something else:
"That woman's code name is 'Bellmode'. If you have paid attention to the entertainment industry, you should be able to recognize her. Her usual identity is Chrissy Wynyard - that international female star with outstanding acting skills."
As he said that, he remembered Jiang Xia's vague mercy towards Belmod just now, and added:
"Belmod is good at disguise and voice change, and has a rather bad personality. Many people who partner with her will lose their lives without knowing it, but she is very valued by the boss and will not be held accountable for this. So even if she has a code name
Many of her members died in vain while performing missions with her, let alone ordinary members... In short, don't be fooled by her appearance."
Jiang Xia nodded, but he didn't want the Red Party cadres to discover his murderous covetousness towards Belmode, so he defended: "I thought she was Ogata-sensei at first."
"..." Toru Amuro was even more eager to speak but then stopped.
After the Mazda drove out two streets, he said after careful consideration: "In the future, when you go out, don't drink drinks handed to you by others."
...Although this is actually common sense, Toru Amuro suddenly discovered that most of the time it was girls who were reminded of this sentence. Now it seems that gender discrimination is not advisable. Publicity and education should take into account all aspects and should not be ignored.
Another vulnerable group.
Jiang Xia also hesitated before speaking, suspecting that his social common sense was being despised.
But because he did drink with someone he didn't know well yesterday, he couldn't refute him directly, so he had to use a roundabout way to argue: "The waiter handed me the drink."
"..." There was a longer silence, "Anyway, don't go into the bar."
"...I usually walk around the bar, but yesterday it was so welcoming that I couldn't refuse."
"..."
…
silence.
Silence is today's Mazda.
When the car passed by the detective office, Jiang Xia glanced out the window and whispered: "I'll stay here."
Toru Amuro recovered from the education problems of the younger generation and remembered that Jiang Xia had the habit of frequently checking the mailbox, so he found a place nearby to park, dropped the people off and drove away.
He was indeed a little busy today. In addition to his original part-time job, he also temporarily added a lot of new tasks for himself - such as when did Belle Mode and Gin have a new enemy? Another example is to find out who Schrödinger is in a life-and-death situation.
A has-been detective in status.
Jiang Xia stood on the side of the road, watching Toru Amuro's car drive away, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, in the middle of last night, he was bored and drove his vest over to check his mailbox once, so he was in no hurry to come today.
But the atmosphere in the car was really awkward - he didn't expect Toru Amuro to suddenly jump from business to yesterday's drinking.
It sounds like a good experience to pretend to be drunk and be taken away by a beautiful sister...at least after removing the age, she is completely a beautiful sister. But from the perspective of others, being drunk and being picked up by a beautiful sister and trying to use that
What, it's a completely different situation... I don't know if Toru Amuro saw those fatal "caregiver tools" when he entered the bedroom just now. I hope that Belmode will be more shameless and come in advance after he leaves.
Kick things into places where others can't see them...
Jiang Xia shivered in embarrassment as she thought about it.
He silently wrapped his coat that was originally open to the wind tightly and walked quickly to the detective office.
…
As Detective Jiang Xia's reputation grew, the growth rate of letters in the mailbox also increased significantly.
But according to Jiangxia’s experience, the extra ones rarely contain useful invitation letters and appointment forms, but mainly include some advertisements and insurance.
Even as his fame grows, the things he sells in advertisements become more and more outrageous. Last week, someone actually made an appointment to sell a yacht...
At that time, Jiang Xia saw the unique appointment slip, and after a few minutes of silence, she decisively accepted the appointment.
Afterwards, he chatted with the middle-aged capable saleswoman who came to the door for a while, and found out the lady's name, her old name, her husband's name, her father's name, her sister-in-law's old surname, her friend's name, etc... and then confirmed it. The sales lady has nothing to do with the case.
So Jiang Xia politely rejected the other party's sales, and sent away the salesman who was slightly disappointed and said that he wanted to get the next time and the next appointment.
…
Jiang Xia recalled the past incident of getting twice the result with half the effort. While trying to learn lessons and come up with more efficient methods of clichés, Jiang Xia gathered the papers and magazines in the mailbox.
He brought everything into the office and spread it out on the coffee table. Then he skillfully put a bunch of fancy advertisements into a large box with miscellaneous letters, and then swept the newspapers aside.
At this time, apart from some entrustment appointment forms, there was only one envelope left on the table.
I took a look at the sender's name, "Naito Ryoko".
Combined with the current time, Jiang Xia had a vague premonition of the content of the letter.
He opened the envelope and pulled out a card folded in half with the title "Invitation Letter to the "Memorial Reunion of Akira Sakemaki" written on the letterhead.
...it actually got sent over.
As a funeral invitation, this letter actually came a little late.
However, Jiang Xia was very self-aware and knew that Miss Naito had most likely squeezed in her quota without authorization. She immediately felt that it would be great to receive the letter, regardless of whether it was late or not.
After all, although he is considered a famous detective, his qualifications are still relatively low, and there are many people in the upper class who hate detectives. With his status as a director of Sake Roll, under normal circumstances, he should not be on the invitation list.
Jiang Xia silently thanked Mrs. Naito and decided to try harder when catching her cat in the future.
…
After confirming the time and place in the invitation letter, Jiang Xia originally wanted to send a message to Ginjiu, telling him that he had received the invitation letter and could join the organization's assassination team to hunt down ghosts with the sharks.
But when I touched my pocket out of habit, I found it was empty.
Jiang Xia was startled, then belatedly remembered that her two mobile phones had been brutally murdered by Belmode.
He was silent for a moment, and secretly encouraged the ghosts next to him, telling them that if they saw Belmode again in the future, they must remember to use more murderous intent, and they must not be polite and cut her bald.
The mermaid listened carefully and coldly broke Jiang Xia's spiritual victory - every time they saw someone with murderous intent, they would fight with all their strength and never hold back, so even if they saw Belmod again next time, they would not be able to do it again.
Increased intensity.
Jiang Xia looked at her with a smile on her face for two seconds, then flicked the fish away with a flick of her finger.
Then when the mermaid swam back to hit him confused and angry, he stood up and prepared to get a new mobile phone and mobile phone card.
Although there is a computer in the office, Jiang Xia has no intention of using it to send emails to Gin.
Usa, a vest that was made slightly crazy by Gin's imagination, should be covered up first if Toru Amuro can do it.
As for Toru Amuro, an agent with the bonus of science power... using his office's computer to look up things, it always feels like telling him directly, "I'm involved in Gin's mission!"
…
It was almost dark when I got the new card and new phone.
Jiang Xia first sent a message to Ginjiu to inform him about the invitation letter.
Then I picked up my motorcycle nearby, got on it and rushed to the doctor's house, intending to have a nutritionally balanced and delicious meal.
Thinking about it carefully, the last time he ate was sushi mixed with gin at a sushi restaurant yesterday. Speaking of which, the rice served by Belmode at noon was actually quite delicious. If he had known this, he should have pretended that nothing happened.
After finishing the meal, I went to ask those death questions that caused the boat of friendship between the two to sink in place...
…
On the road, the new black mobile phone vibrated.
Gin called.
After confirming that the person who answered the phone was Jiang Xia himself, he wrote down Jiang Xia's new phone number and told Jiang Xia that he did not need to make too many preparations on the day of the memorial service. At most, he could make arrangements for the execution personnel this time while hiding his identity, and focus on
Watching and learning.
Afterwards, he asked about Belmod.
From Ginjiu's wording, Jiang Xia deduced that the model worker had probably contacted Belmod and heard about the general situation.
He thought about the explanation that Belmod might use, blurred Kudo Shinichi's part, and focused on the fact that Belmod seemed to be trying to pull Gin's pigtails.
Gin felt that there was not much conflict between the two statements, so he said "Well done" and hung up the phone.
Jiang Xia: "..."
Does this "not bad" mean that he pushed back on Belmod... Jiang Xia fell into deep thought and didn't know whether it was because he had succeeded in winning the war or because Gin didn't like Belmode in the first place.
In any case, once two high-quality murderous aura-making machines confront each other, it will only benefit Jiang Xia, a psychic who picks up murderous aura. Even if the two become mortal enemies, he may be able to own a perpetual motion machine...
Jiang Xia hung up the phone, put away his cell phone, and continued riding his weather-beaten motorcycle to the doctor's house.
Inside the house, Hui Yuan Ai heard the familiar sound of an engine. She was startled, then put down the frying spoon, moved behind the kitchen window, and looked out.
Seeing Jiang Xia coming, and there was no strange man in black behind her, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the spoon as if nothing had happened, and continued to stir-fry.
Dr. A Li and Conan have also returned home since they didn't gain much.
At this time, the grandfather and grandson were squatting next to the notebook, thinking that if that person touched Jiang Xia's mobile phone again and the whereabouts were recorded by the plug-in, they might be able to follow the clues and reach the destination.
However, until dark, there was no operation record.
Instead, Jiang Xia himself was waiting.
As expected by Jiang Xia, Conan also asked a lot of questions related to the loss of contact.
Considering that among the group of people who asked him today, Conan knew the least about his identity, Jiangxia was more vague than when he answered Gin and Amuro Toru before. He only said that he met Mr. Ogata and was invited to a bar for a drink.
After a few drinks of low alcohol content, I woke up and found that my phone was gone. So I took Toru Amuro's car back to the city and got a new phone. I planned to go home and rest for a while until I recovered.
Let’s explore the truth again…
Although this version of the story has many gaps, it basically only gives a beginning.
But Jiang Xia believes in Conan's brain power.
For Conan, let alone giving the beginning and the end, even if only the ending is given, Conan can considerately help him complete it automatically.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Conan nodded with an expression of "Sure enough."
