Not long after, the police received a relevant call.
——The gas station near Dusk Villa, after receiving their inquiry, began to search around its own station and nearby convenience stores.
Then in an old warehouse, Jiang Xia was found abandoned by an unscrupulous thief.
Toru Amuro and a group of policemen rushed there in a car.
When I arrived at the place, I found Jiang Xia wearing someone else's coat and eating oden cooked by the convenience store lady. The elderly store manager passed by with a teapot and asked him kindly if he wanted some hot tea.
"..."
Toru Amuro was silent for a moment. Compared to him, a kidnapping suspect, Jiang Xia lived a very comfortable life...
However, this is thanks to Kidd having a little conscience - he only took away his coat, not all his clothes. Otherwise, the clerk here would probably just panic and shout when he suddenly saw a young man without clothes in the warehouse,
I feel like there is a pervert in the store, how can I get such excellent treatment...
Toru Amuro yawned and compared the current situation between the two parties, feeling vaguely resentful.
…
When the police asked Jiang Xia and people at the gas station about the situation.
A "staff member" who seemed to have noticed the commotion here and ran to watch the commotion took a few glances, confirmed the situation, and slipped away quietly.
——This "staff member" is none other than Kidd in disguise.
Half an hour ago, Kidd heard that Terai Huangnosuke had not received Jiang Xia's call, and that Kiritengu could not be contacted. So he changed his voice and called the police station to ask about the situation.
After discovering that Wutiangu didn't send Jiang Xia to the police, Kidd fell into silence with sweat on his forehead, and began to talk about "Go to the deep forest to look for any food reserves hung on the trees" and "Go to the nearby gas station to check
Tangled back and forth in the situation.
Then decisively chose the latter.
After all, the woods were so big that he didn't know where to look.
Moreover, Brother Youkai should be quite trustworthy, otherwise Kiritengo would not have handed over the detective he caught with his own ability to him at that time.
Now, in a gas station.
Facts have proved that no matter what the process was, Kidd finally came to the right conclusion.
——As expected, he saw Jiang Xia at the gas station.
So... maybe Kiritengu and Grandpa Terai got bored and went shopping elsewhere alone. Then Jiang Xia woke up on the way and found himself fainted in the woods, so he ran hard to the warehouse of the gas station.
Afterwards, because it was safe for the time being, after relaxing for a while, the effects of the anesthetic took over again, so I slept until now?
"..." It feels quite reasonable.
Let's just take it as such.
As for the specific situation, it will probably become clear when you encounter the foggy dog next time you are robbed.
Thinking of this, Kidd glanced at Jiang Xia, who was surrounded by police and enthusiastic citizens, and then at his scumbag boss who was surrounded by police. He was very satisfied with the situation.
He pressed the brim of his hat while hiding his merit and fame, and left in a low profile.
…
Faced with the police's inquiry about "Is Toru Amuro a human trafficker"...
Of course Jiang Xia did not cheat his boss.
After all, he just wanted to resolve the matter as soon as possible and get on the road.
So he just said that he lost his cell phone midway. As for why Kidd thought he was kidnapped, he didn't know.
Although the police were still a little suspicious, they thought of the frequency of Jiang Xia's crime solving in the past few days in the news and the speed with which he contacted the police. They felt that if Jiang Xia wanted to seek help, there would be a huge number of opportunities.
In addition, although Kidd has a good reputation, he is after all a mysterious thief with a lot of illegal records.
Therefore, it seems that Kid’s words cannot be fully believed—perhaps Kid secretly stuffed the note “There is a problem with Toru Amuro” into other detectives just now, just to make the detectives focus more on Toru Amuro.
So that he can escape in time.
After asking a few more questions, they had no choice but to let the two of them leave.
…
When the police left, no one was staring at him eagerly.
Toru Amuro took out his cell phone and took a fair look at it.
I saw an unread email on my phone.
After clicking on it, judging from the email address, it was a message from Rum, the second-in-command of the organization.
Toru Amuro was not surprised by this.
Previously, in order to maintain the behavior that "Bourbon" should have, he had reported the news in the Dusk Villa to Rum.
Toru Amuro clicked on the email.
I originally thought it was just a cliché like "well done".
However, when his eyes fell on it, his pupils suddenly shrank.
It was completely different from what he thought, what was written there was actually.
——[The adult already knows].
"..."
Toru Amuro subconsciously glanced at the delivery time.
He found out that Rum had replied to him just one minute after he sent the email. Rum and the boss read emails quite frequently... However, this is obviously not the current focus.
Toru Amuro looked at the few words on the email and was shocked by the overwhelming amount of information, and was silent for a moment.
Already know...
Does this mean that before him, someone had already informed that gentleman about the Dusk Villa?
The mystery of the treasure was just solved today, and only a few people saw the gold...
The faces of the detectives, the maid who looked like a stranger no matter how she looked, and "Matsuda" flashed through Toru Amuro's mind, and she felt like the hairs on her back were about to stand up.
... This feeling of "the organization cadres are by my side", for normal organization members, will only lead to the unhappiness of being robbed of the first credit, and the secret annoyance of being played by colleagues.
But for this fake bottle of bourbon, there is only horror and deep fear.
And among this group of people, who is the most suspicious...
The faces that flashed through his mind one after another finally settled on "Kurosawa".
Amuro Toru's eyes darkened slightly.
Although he had doubts about "Kurosawa" for a long time, it was just a polite suspicion based on the principle of "If you can't confirm that there is no problem, treat it as a problem first".
I didn't expect that now, things might actually come true.
For a moment, Toru Amuro's mood was subtly synchronized with those unlucky people who were "worried that the ceiling fan above their heads would fall down, and then one day found that the ceiling fan actually fell down while spinning."
But after a while, he luckily thought that that night, he actually didn't stare at the "Jiang Xia" disguised as Kidd. Instead, he kept staring at Matsuda.
——There was no signal in the dusk annex, and Toru Amuro remembered that when the helicopter that picked up the detectives arrived at a place with signal, and until Toru Amuro sent a message to Rum, Matsuda had not used his mobile phone.
The detectives stayed up all night together, catching up on sleep...
Did Matsuda use some means to avoid his eyes while pretending to be asleep and send a message to that gentleman?
Or is it that someone else actually informed the boss of this information, such as other detectives that he has not paid much attention to, or even the police who came to rescue people?
