Chapter 2009 2017 [Keep Your Distance]

The driver and assistant whispered, "It looks like things are going very smoothly."

Mrs. Xu responded, picked up the document next to her and flipped through it, smiling.

If you look closely, you can see that this information is all about the commissions and murders Jiang Xia has received, and there is also a statistical chart at the end.

——People who seek commissions from Jiang Xia will encounter more or less unexpected events around them.

Mrs. Xu first discovered this because of several of her friends who have cats.

The wives of the same family have different fates. Among the same rich women, some are second-generation rich and were born with a silver spoon in their mouths; some marry high and often have to endure beatings and scolding from their husbands; and some keep gigolos and have 18 relationships at the same time, living an easy and happy life.

After meeting Jiangxia, some rich women went in, some went out. Others, who were lucky and good-tempered, got promoted, got rich, and their husbands died, and they lived a happy life.

Although Mrs. Xu also likes to admire some handsome high school detectives, a woman who can quickly take control of all the property and company after her husband's death will definitely not only watch these.

"I don't know whether this is bad luck or good luck for a detective like Jiang Xia." Mrs. Xu put the information aside, her mind racing. "But it's rare to come across such a strong event physique. It would be a pity not to take advantage of it."

It is the most foolish act to get your hands bloody just to punish scum like those other prisoners did.

Mrs. Xu prefers to use environmentally friendly and efficient methods.

She looked at her distant cousin and her cousin's son without much tenderness in her eyes: "Just treat it as an experiment. I hope you can survive, poor child."

Mrs. Xu's car drove away quickly.

After the luxury car disappeared, Jiang Xia walked out from the corner near the coffee shop and looked over there from a distance.

Then he quickly looked away.

…

On the way to the detective agency, Jiang Xia took out the business card and looked down at it.

This is Curacao’s new business card.

Just now when Jiang Xia was exchanging business cards with Mrs. Xun, Curacao was sitting next to her pretending to be dead. However, a qualified member of the organization should not exclude colleagues in the workplace. Jiang Xia certainly did not ignore her and went to her place to exchange a business card.

Looking down, I saw that it was a very plain business card. From the layout to the printing to the material, everything was standard, which was consistent with the image of the background lawyer that Curacao had deliberately created today.

In the place of her name, it was printed "Shirai Akiko", which should be a pseudonym made up by Curacao - it has both "白" and "晶", and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the organization. It can be seen that she is indeed trying hard to disguise that she has nothing to do with the organization that likes black.

"I don't know why Curacao is here. Is there a mission?"

Jiang Xia was puzzled for a moment, but soon stopped thinking: What does the mission have to do with him? He was just an ordinary detective who had accepted the commission and was about to accompany the client on a sightseeing trip.

But sightseeing is also a science.

——The tourist destination is not important. What is important is who should you take with you?

"Hashimoto Maya will definitely go, there is no doubt about that. If he dares to slip away, I will send him an email using Uzo's account." Jiang Xia touched his chin and fell into deep thought, "But the new little brother's physical condition has not been tested yet. To be on the safe side, it is best to randomly grab a lucky acquaintance to go with him."

Speaking of acquaintances, the first person that came to Jiang Xia’s mind was Conan’s team.

Unfortunately, whether it is Ran Mouri, Sonoko Suzuki, or the Junior Detective Team, they all have the same puzzling identity.

--student.

They have classes to attend.

You can take time off for big things like cross-border travel, but if you just want to visit tourist attractions in downtown Tokyo, it would be an overreaction if you take time off.

Jiang Xia felt a little worried and began to wonder whether he should call Okiya Subaru over to help save the situation.

But soon, this problem was solved.

——Jiang Xia arrived at the detective agency and had just distributed the remaining cats. He was about to try his luck in Beika Town when suddenly a ball of coffee pushed the door and walked in.

Jiang Xia raised his head and saw Toru Amuro's face. His eyes suddenly lit up: "Boss? Are you free today?"

Amuro Toru answered the question irrelevantly: "Did Hashimoto Maya find you a commission?"

He happened to pass by the private room while working just now. After seeing Hashimoto Maya and Jiang Xia, he went to talk to his colleague.

Then it was soon figured out. It was Hashimoto Maya who arrived at the cafe first, and then brought Jiang Xia in with her - this guy sent by Uzo was most likely the leader of this commission.

When Toru Amuro thought of this, he became murderous: not long ago, he had just warned the guy who looked like Akai Shuichi, and thought he would keep a low profile, but before he could even finish his words, he started to make trouble.

——There must be something wrong with this commission.

Otherwise, why would Hashimoto Maya be so attentive? It's impossible that she really came here to be a detective assistant.

In short, this must be Uzo's conspiracy.

Toru Amuro felt offended by Hashimoto Maya's disregard, but was also curious about what Usa was going to do this time.

No matter what, he had to get involved, and this necessity even outweighed his avoidance of Jiang Xia.

"There is a commission." Jiang Xia, "A large family with the surname 'Xun' is changing its head..."

He briefly explained the commission.

The more Toru Amuro listened, the more his brows furrowed: He had clearly received a threatening letter and had the will of the previous head of the family in his hand, but he didn't dare to fight back against a few greenhorns, and instead only pursued self-protection conservatively?

They asked Jiang Xia to protect them, but instead of staying in the hotel, they went to various tourist attractions to wander around?

No matter what the inside story is, now that Toru Amuro has heard the matter, there are only three bold warning words in capital letters - there is a conspiracy.

"I'll go too." Amuro Toru paused for a moment, "But I won't get too close. I'll just be nearby to provide support. Just pretend I don't exist and handle everything as it should be. If you encounter anything too unusual, come find me."

After that, he added: "Remember, you can only come here if there is something abnormal. Don't get close to me, don't contact me, and don't look for where I'm hiding. It's not that I don't want to be with you, but there may be other hidden stories behind this commission, so it's not convenient for me to show up."

Jiang Xia glanced at the eye-catching coffee aura on him and nodded: "Okay."

After saying that, he seemed a little curious again and repeated what Amuro Toru had just said: "Is there another hidden story?"

Toru Amuro hesitated and didn't mention Uzo.

On the one hand, this will definitely affect Jiang Xia's ability to solve the case, causing Jiang Xia to consider whether this will affect the tasks of other cadres when reasoning.

On the other hand, Jiang Xia is now becoming more and more cheerful and like a normal high school detective. If the scriptwriter is mentioned in detail, and Jiang Xia's competitive spirit is aroused... there will probably be trouble.
