Chapter 1553 1561 [Ireland: It must be Uzo's trap] Ask for monthly votes ()

Subaru Okiya: “…” And it was indeed true - the unknown cadre had just appeared when he was hit by a killing machine gun thrown by Usa. If he had been a few inches off, he would have died on the spot. No matter how you looked at it, he had suffered a great loss.

Since my boss has already taken action, I should just concentrate on being an innocent tourist passing by before receiving his instructions...

Having said that, after being on edge for so long, the tension has been so high that it is not so easy to relax.

After looking out the window for a while, Subaru Okiya finally couldn't help but take out his mobile phone, opened his small app, and began to search for news related to the fall from the building.

…

There is no complete news report yet because the police are still struggling to maintain order at the scene.

The detective had already sneaked into the building while he was not paying attention.

Jiang Xia walked up the stairs to the rooftop.

The rooftop is surrounded by steel wire railings on all four sides, with a huge billboard standing on the edge.

Going around the billboard, you can see that there is a 2 to 3 meter gap between it and the fence. The two people who were pushing each other just now should be in this position.

"Did he fall from here?" Jiang Xia walked to Conan, leaned over and looked down, and saw a large group of people downstairs and the balcony on the third floor.

Conan nodded: "It seems that he fell onto the balcony below, and then fell to the ground from the third floor - no wonder he fell for so long."

"Oh? Is it really that simple?" "Kudo Yusaku" twirled his mustache and pointed to the balcony illuminated by the street lamp below. "If you look closely, there is a drag mark there. The person who fell from the building probably didn't just lie on the balcony for more than ten minutes."

"..." Conan looked up at him. Although such meticulous observation was very consistent with a father's characteristics, he always felt that something was wrong with this father and there was a strong sense of incongruity.

Thinking of this, Conan turned and looked at Jiang Xia again.

But Jiang Xia didn't say anything. This high school detective seemed to have no interest in "Kudo Yusaku" next to him and was concentrating on the case at hand:

"I heard from those 'enthusiastic passers-by' that no one left the building after the fall. The person who pushed the victim to fall from the building may still be nearby."

After hesitating for a moment, Conan decided to be as dedicated as Jiang Xia and concentrate on solving the case at hand: "But a building of this size must have more than one exit - it's night time now and the light is not good. If that person escaped from the back door, or even climbed out of a random window on the first floor, he could have easily left and may have run far away by now."

Several people stood in front of the billboard, discussing the case in low voices.

In the building diagonally opposite, a gun was slowly raised and the muzzle was gradually aimed at them.

Ireland narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the extremely conspicuous figures set off by the glowing billboards, and his gaze finally fell on Jiang Xia who was standing on the right.

——As soon as these three people went upstairs, they immediately got closer to Ireland who was hiding in another building, making it extremely convenient for him to aim.

Ireland thought of his previous speculation about "there is a connection between Uzo and Jiang Xia", sneered, slowly aimed the gun at Jiang Xia, and gradually tightened the finger on the trigger.

At this distance, he could easily shoot through the target's head. At this moment, Jiang Xia was standing there, just like a ready-made target, attracting him to pull the trigger - as long as he wanted, he could immediately shoot this suspicious high school detective in the head.

Ireland stared at Jiang Xia for a long time, then suddenly pressed his finger hard on the trigger. At the same time, his body swayed backwards, as if pushed by the recoil of the gun.

It looked like a shot was fired, but in fact, no bullet came out of his gun.

——Although Ireland touched the safety on the gun just now, he did not open it.

After firing a shot, Ireland put down the gun and looked at Jiang Xia, who was not dodging at all and was still concentrating on whispering something to the child next to him, with a thoughtful look on his face.

As an organizational cadre who had experienced hundreds of battles and had taken countless lives, Ireland was very sure that as long as he fired that shot just now, Jiang Xia would definitely die on the spot.

This was a life-threatening situation, but Jiang Xia seemed to be completely unaware of the impending danger. Moreover, the position where he stood was too easy to aim at, just like an ordinary person who rarely came into contact with guns or people with guns.

Ireland: "..." If Jiang Xia and Wu Zuo were really in the same group, Jiang Xia would not be so lacking in information about "Ireland". And no one came out to stop the "shooting" just now.

If you think about it carefully, the pattern of "Jiang Xia has been solving cases related to the Japanese since coming to London" is so obvious that it seems to be waiting for others to discover it.

So it feels like something is not right.

Ireland Mosuo held the handle of his gun and looked at Jiang Xia opposite him. His thoughts gradually became clear: never underestimate the enemy, especially a guy like Wuzo who has strong brain power.

If you think about it carefully, the pattern of "only harming Japanese" is so obvious, but Jiang Xia still rushes out to solve the case as soon as he encounters it... Compared with Wu Zuo's accomplices, this detective is more like a simple detective who is attracted by the case. At the same time, he is also a deadly trap set by Wu Zuo, waiting for the organization cadres to step into it.

As for who the "prey" targeted by the trap is, it goes without saying.

On the other hand, Uzo might be happy to see him confront Jiang Xia: shooting a celebrity like Jiang Xia would bring a lot of trouble if not handled with care, especially when there are a large number of police officers surrounding the scene.

Ireland: “…” Speaking of which, the Mr. Pisco, whom he respected, died in the assassination of a famous congressman. The direct cause of death was that Pisco's assassination action with a gun was "unfortunately" photographed by reporters, and then he was shot to death by Gin to silence him, and the indirect cause of death was that he was ambushed by Uzo.

It can be seen that Wuzo is actually very good at using celebrities and killing organizational cadres like this. I must be vigilant enough about this and never fall into the same trap.

And there seemed to be no benefit in killing Jiang Xia now. It would be better to try to dig out some information about "Wu Zuo" from Jiang Xia - after all, he was a sharp detective, and perhaps Jiang Xia had accidentally discovered some information about Wu Zuo.

…

While Ireland was quietly adjusting its policy.

Several ghosts were working hard on his body, and soon succeeded in pulling out a large ball of fluffy smoky murderous aura.

Diagonally opposite Ireland, on the rooftop of the building where the fall occurred.

Jiang Xia mingled with the detective and the thief, trying hard to restrain himself from looking at the murderous aura.

Then he felt the murderous intent inexplicably begin to weaken, and sighed in disappointment.
