Chapter 2055 2063 [Curse of Curacao]

However, thinking of Hashimoto Maya's difficult life, Curacao understood: a person who is about to lose his life probably has no time to manage workplace relationships, and it is already difficult for him to survive under Uzo.

Thinking of this, she immediately stopped caring about these little things. She just turned around and walked to the other side of Mrs. Xun, refusing communication in a physical way.

Maya Hashimoto still wanted to chat, but before he opened his mouth, he suddenly noticed someone.

——In a street watch shop ahead, a slightly plump middle-aged woman walked out angrily.

The woman held the phone and angrily said, "You were involved in a theft case and were sent to the police station? Why didn't you tell me in advance! I already made an appointment, and now you suddenly stood me up. How can I find another detective in such a short time!"

Jiang Xia paused and looked at the person. He felt that what she said was very familiar: Not long ago, Lawyer Xun seemed to have been stood up by a detective, and it was also because that detective was involved in a theft case and was forced to stay in the police station. Could it be that this was actually the same detective?

Jiang Xia: "..." Who would accept such a commission? He accepted it and then canceled it. He really doesn't know how to appreciate the blessing he has.

Just as I was thinking about it, Mrs. Xun behind me said "Huh?" and walked forward uncertainly: "Etsuko?"

Etsuko Furukawa hung up the phone heavily. Just as she was feeling annoyed, she heard someone greeting her.

She frowned and turned around, recognized the person, and put on a friendly smile: "It's you, I'm so sorry, I was busy on the phone just now and didn't recognize you - why did you come to Tokyo suddenly? I have a movie under my management and I plan to shoot it in your old house. Are you free now? I'll treat you to a meal."

This person looked uneasy and her topic was somewhat jumpy. Even Mrs. Xun could see that she was absent-minded.

Mrs. Xun smiled gently and asked in a friendly manner, "Is there something wrong? Is there anything I can help with?"

"It's nothing serious." Furukawa Etsuko sighed, "My mother runs a loan company, and someone beat her up a few days ago. We don't know which debtor did it, so I made an appointment with a detective to find the guy who hurt her - but the detective couldn't come because of something. My schedule is so busy, so I have to make new arrangements."

Mrs. Xun was startled: "Is that so..."

She thought of something and her eyes fell on Jiang Xia.

Furukawa Etsuko followed her line of sight and was stunned for a moment: "Your son has grown up so much, how come he is getting more and more handsome, as if he has been reborn. The growth trajectory of children is really unpredictable. You can even make a story about an ugly duckling turning into a white swan."

As he said this, he raised his hand and wanted to pat the younger generation on the head.

Xun Zhengwan's face turned pale: "Cough cough cough!"

Furukawa Etsuko looked at him in confusion: "This is..."

Mrs. Xun gave an awkward smile: "This is my son."

Furukawa Etsuko: "..."

When two people are embarrassed together, the embarrassment cancels each other out.

So the topic was quickly taken up, and Mrs. Xun pulled Jiang Xia over: "This is the detective I hired. He is young but very good. If you don't mind..."

"Detective?" Furukawa Etsuko's confused mind came back to her senses, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind, "Oh, I was wondering why you look so familiar! I think you made a cameo appearance in a movie I worked on."

Curacao thought of the innocent screen-opening attack he suffered in his home theater, and his forehead jumped: "..." So that crappy movie was produced by you?

Etsuko Furukawa was unaware of the murderous intent rising around her. She looked at the detective in front of her, somewhat hesitant.

But after glancing at the watch on her wrist, she thought about it and finally made a decision: "My company has something else to do this afternoon, so I can't entertain you. If you don't mind, come to my mother's house at 7 o'clock in the evening to talk?"

Etsuko Furukawa seemed very busy. She wrote down the address and contact information for them and left in a hurry.

Mrs. Xun belatedly introduced herself, “Etsuko is the president of a film and television production company. Her mother’s loan company is also very famous and has done several transactions with our family.”

Jiang Xia looked at the address left by Furukawa Etsuko and nodded secretly. It seems that she has plans for tonight.

Because the morning and evening were both occupied and there was nowhere to go in the afternoon, this became a rare rest time. After shopping and having a meal, they returned to the hotel to rest.

Hashimoto Maya and Curacao lay in their respective rooms, unable to close their eyes: Was the afternoon really empty? No plans at all? Could it be that the hotel suddenly exploded?

Unlike Hashimoto Maya who could only toss and turn, Curacao rolled over in bed twice, silently picked up her phone, opened Uzo's email, hoping that the playwright would give her some information.

Then he suddenly turned off the screen and threw the phone aside.

Curacao: “…” No.

No matter how she thought about it, the probability that the guy had given her the answer to the question was infinitely close to zero.

And what if she had nothing to do originally, but after this contact, Wu Zuo thought she was interested in those stages and arranged a role for her.

...The best option is to keep doing nothing.

Curacao picked up and put down his phone several times before finally making up his mind to put it down completely.

At this moment, she glanced at the door and found Mrs. Xun standing there, looking at her with amusement.

Curacao and Mrs. Xun lived in a 2-bedroom, 1-living-room suite. Mrs. Xun passed by the door and saw what she had just done. She laughed and said, "Are you in love?"

Curacao: “?”

Mrs. Xun pointed at the mobile phone that she had picked up and put down countless times.

Curacao looked over and stared at her phone. It took her half a minute to sort out Mrs. Xun's train of thought, and she almost couldn't control her horrified expression.

...Who would fall in love with a guillotine that indiscriminately kills passers-by in the square!

Curacao was so shocked by this bizarre idea that his expression disappeared: "Misunderstanding."

Mrs. Xun covered her lips and laughed, looking like an experienced person: "My stepdaughter seems to have a crush on someone, so she is always worried about losing and dare not send a message to the other party - if she wants to send a message, just send it. Feelings are always mutual, and the other party may be thinking about you too."

Curacao: “…”

...We have no grudge against each other, why are you suddenly cursing me?

After Mrs. Xun left, she picked up the cell phone that was thrown on the bed and placed it far away on the table, very worried that something would suddenly crawl out of it.

…

A few hours later.

The group gathered in the hall, preparing to visit Etsuko Furukawa's home.

Jiang Xia's eyes accidentally passed by Curacao, then suddenly turned back and stared at her for two seconds.

Then he sincerely sighed: "This is the first time I've seen someone get dark circles under their eyes from taking a nap."

Curacao: “…”
