Chapter 3260 3272 [Rebellious Canary] Ask for monthly votes ()

As they were talking, Mao Lilan suddenly felt that the atmosphere was not right.

When he looked up suddenly, he saw Eri Kisaki and Yukiko Kudo approaching him with smiles on their faces. "And then? Whose name is written on it?"

Mao Lilan blinked her eyes under the double pressure and stammered, "I, I can't see clearly. The dress has been washed several times. Although the voting paper has not been washed away, the ink on it has long been blurred into a ball..."

Hibiki Eri looked skeptical: "Really?"

Kudo Yukiko's aura was gentler, but the suspicion in her words was obviously no less than that of Kisaki Eri: "It's okay, Xiaolan, don't worry about us, just speak freely!"

Mao Lilan: “…” It’s been 20 years, why are you still so competitive... Come to think of it, she really didn’t see it clearly at the time!

…

When two social elites teamed up to interrogate an innocent female high school student.

On the other side, in the gap of the surveillance video, another oppressive conversation was taking place.

"When can you change your habit of running away when you see Jiang Xia?" Torimaru Naoko frowned and looked at the "twin sister" in front of her. Her voice was very low, but the majesty in her words did not diminish at all, "Don't forget our identity!"

They are not innocent little maids - two of them have killed people, and their wanted warrants are still prominently displayed on the Metropolitan Police Department's website.

But this is not what worries Naoko Torimaru the most. What's worse is that murder may not result in the death penalty, but if their identities are exposed, then the organization they are in now, or their terrible boss, will be truly fatal.

Moreover, if he did so, he would lose the chance to fight back against him forever, and could only be an insignificant canary, tragically heading towards death...

After a brief moment of distraction, in order to avoid such an outcome, Torimaru Naoko quickly returned her attention to the present and began to prune the useless branches that grew out of her plan.

"You didn't even dare to enter the door, and found a lame excuse to stay outside..." Torimaru Naoko looked at Takamori Masumi with a sinister look, "Are you afraid that others won't see that there is something wrong with you?"

Even if Jiang Xia has reached a certain degree of consensus with her and will not expose it, what about others?

"Let's not talk about Jiang Xia for now. As for the two women who were traveling with him, one was a lawyer known as the 'Queen of Law'. To be a good lawyer, one must be bold and careful. As far as I know, Hibiki Eri has also taken on many criminal cases. Such smart people have been involved in many cases, and their reasoning ability is not much worse than that of ordinary detectives.

"There is another woman, Kudo Yukiko. Her husband is a world-famous mystery novelist who can solve cases faster than a detective." Of course, she is a detective other than Jiang Xia. "She is also known as the 'wife of the Dark Night Baron' and has shown some outstanding reasoning skills... Although it doesn't seem like her own reasoning, if she finds out something is wrong with you and talks to her husband about it after returning, what do you think will be the consequences?"

Takamori Masumi had a face exactly like hers, but with a completely different dull expression. She listened to all this in a daze: "Is this... so dangerous?"

The relationship between her and Naoko Torimaru is full of incredible harmony: in fact, strictly speaking, there is a feud between the two, and it can be said to be a blood feud.

——If Jiang Xia had not suddenly appeared, then she, Takamori Masumi, would have become a scapegoat for Naoko Torimaru, killing people inexplicably, being discovered inexplicably, and then going to prison inexplicably, ending her miserable life.

But an accident happened - Naoko Torimaru's plan was exposed, and then the two discovered that behind her, there was another mastermind who was even more deeply hidden.

It was like two groups of enemies were fighting, but suddenly a more powerful enemy came rushing in. In the face of huge external pressure, Takamori Masumi and Torimaru Naoko instantly became sisters in distress and were forced to unite together.

After spending these days together, Takamori Masumi has become more and more dependent on this fake sister - whether in terms of IQ or life experience, Torimaru Naoko seems to have really crushed her. The grudges of the past, in the face of the future life, seem to have become unworthy of mentioning.

Now, facing such a rebuke from a teammate, Takamori Masumi really couldn't say anything to object. She just explained in a daze: "I know, I understand, but I can't control it. It's okay at ordinary times, but once I get close to him, I can't help but want to run... Come to think of it, don't you think Jiang Xia is scary? When he looks at you, it seems that he sees through you completely from the inside out."

Naoko Torimaru: “…” With your stupid look on your face, with all your thoughts written all over your face, not to mention Jiang Xia, even the little kid next to Jiang Xia can probably see through you completely.

However, I have to admit that when Jiang Xia pointed out the criminal, he felt very oppressive. His reasoning, which was as if he had seen the scene with his own eyes, would make every criminal standing opposite him feel desperate... But now, the murder case has long been over, so he wouldn't be so scared for a little aftermath.

"Could it be that when I designed that case, I let Gao Sen commit the crime right under Jiang Xia's nose, causing her to be so scared that she has a psychological trauma?" Torimaru Naoko muttered to herself, "Well, for a girl who is not even twenty years old, this kind of experience is indeed enough to give her nightmares for a long time."

At this moment, opposite her, Takamori Masumi belatedly realized something else.

She looked at this fake sister questioningly: "Did 'that person' give you a new task?"

Naoko Torimaru sighed with mixed feelings: "It would be nice if that was the case... No. He only gave us one task, asking us to apply for a job at a wealthy family and then wait for orders."

What she feared more than death was actually this kind of precarious life. Therefore, whether she had approached Jiang Xia and wanted to join forces with him, or had changed from passive resistance to actively completing Wu Zuo's task, she had only one goal - to pull "that person" out of the fog, or to help Jiang Xia, who had also noticed something, pull "that person" out of the fog.

As a behind-the-scenes mastermind, although her ability cannot be compared with Usa's, Torimaru Naoko feels that the biggest advantage of the behind-the-scenes mastermind lies in being "behind the scenes" - and as long as the person is brought to the surface, he will definitely become much more vulnerable when hiding behind the scenes... just like herself who was once caught by Jiang Xia.

After thinking about something else for a while, Naoko Torimaru looked at her colleague and comrade-in-arms and asked, "Why do you ask this suddenly?"
