Chapter 1180 1188 [Socially Dead Gin]
"Whether he is a murderer or not, we'll have to investigate to find out." Gin tapped his fingers silently on the armrest, his eyes moving back and forth between the two men's faces.
Under normal circumstances, these two naysayers might have had a few more bullet holes in their bodies.
Unfortunately now...
Gin thought unhappily that he didn't have many bullets, so it would be best not to waste them on these noobs who could be killed with one hand. And it would be best not to kill anyone right now, lest he accidentally bury important information that could help him escape from this game along with the suspect's death.
He glanced at the guests in front of him who were all thinking about their own things, and suddenly sneered:
"By the way, let me remind you. Jiang Xia is not in the hands of the police now - you have all read the latest news. He has already escaped, and two of the police officers who were searching for him have also disappeared for no reason and have not been found yet."
"..." Everyone looked at each other, thinking of the "Jiang Xia" who looked like a good student, and a chill crept into their hearts: the police couldn't have helped Jiang Xia escape for no reason, not to mention that two people disappeared at once. In other words, those two people might have been killed by Jiang Xia in some way?
…
"In your words, Jiang Xia is now a free 'murderer' who can act at any time - he used to be Ju Wuliu, now he is a policeman, and in the future he may be one of you."
Gin spoke in a gloomy tone, like telling a horror story, from the perspective of the guests, and said slowly:
"Young people are prone to acting on impulse, just like Jiang Xia would impulsively smash Tachibana Goryeo's head when he was angry. If he was favored, he would definitely feel touched."... Of course, this is only "Jiang Xia" in the eyes of the guests. If it were Uzo, this young devil, he would probably only let those who helped him experience what it means to be evil, such as Bourbon who accepted Jiang Xia as a "detective junior". Oh, Anonymous should really bring him in to discuss...
Gin has been busy for a long time and has long since mastered the ability to multitask.
While he was criticizing his colleague, he continued to persuade him:
"You can help Jiang Xia find some clues that 'may be used to clear his suspicion'. If you ever meet him in the future, this action may be a golden ticket to avoid death - I don't want you to lie, just tell the truth and collect objective evidence.
"Of course, what I said is only based on the premise that 'Jiang Xia is really a murderer'.
"And if he is not, helping an innocent famous detective to clear his name is also a good thing.
"When Jiang Xia writes an autobiography based on this twists and turns experience, or when he becomes a real detective after graduating in a few years, the priority for publishing his works will naturally be in the hands of the person who helped him. I heard that the guy is very good at writing something readable, and he may be a writer who is not inferior to Tachibana Goryeo in the future."
Everyone: “…”
After hearing what Gin said, it seemed as if "helping Jiang Xia" was a sure win...
Several people looked at each other, and their hearts were vaguely shaken:
Those who always think that "Jiang Xia is not the murderer" will help.
As for those with a strong sense of justice, they felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong in helping to find objective evidence - if they could save an innocent high school student, that would be great; if Jiang Xia was really the murderer, then it could also provide the police with some additional clues.
Those who are afraid of death think it would be a good idea to get a life-saving talisman to avoid following the fate of the two missing policemen.
The ambitious one calculated and found that if Jiang Xia was not the murderer, then regardless of Jiang Xia's future achievements, this case would also involve "Ju Wuliu was killed", "the police disappeared", "high school student detective", "frame-up" and other explosive points. If it was written as a documentary event and published, it would definitely be a good achievement, and the cost-effectiveness might be higher than digging the river to find the floppy disk at Ju Wuliu's villa.
Gin scanned their expressions and understood: "That's settled then. If you have any clues, please tell me. Of course, since communication is not very convenient, if Jiang Xia finds you directly at your door, you can also tell him directly."
As he was speaking, his home phone suddenly rang.
Gin glanced at the caller ID and picked up the phone.
In this era, mobile phones are still a rare device.
Jiang Xia called from a coin-operated phone booth: "I suddenly remembered, among the guests you gathered, is there anyone with the surname 'Omura'? - The riddle left by Tachibana Goryeo, '里川辺奇々なる藻を' written in romanization and then changed in order, it can be spelled out exactly as 'Go ask Omura'."
"Omura?" Gin looked at the people behind him and fell silent for a moment.
To be honest, he really didn't remember who these ants were...
Fortunately, the people in the living room are either extroverts or often deal with others because of their work, and they are all good at reading people's expressions.
They then thought, "Omura? You mean the president of Feiyue Publishing House? He went back to Tokyo after taking the transcript. I heard he's working on a new work."
Gin repeated the words, listened to the phone, and then turned back to ask the person who had just spoken: "Do you know Omura's address or phone number?"
The guest nodded and quickly provided the information he knew: Since he had decided to help collect evidence, there was nothing to worry about now, and President Omura often dealt with all kinds of people, and it was only a matter of time before others wanted to know his family information, so he might as well do him a favor.
…
Gin told Jiang Xia everything about Omura, hung up the phone, and looked at the group of people behind him who seemed to him to be a mob.
"It's already late today, so let's leave it at that for now. If you have any other news, tell me as soon as possible." He was quite satisfied with this group of people's ability to understand the current situation, "Also..."
Gin suddenly stood up and walked in front of Tomomi Nonaka.
The former angel, Tomomi Nonaka, tried to get an answer by using a honey trap but failed. Later, she followed her colleagues to dig the river for a long time. Now she was exhausted and wanted to go home to rest. Unexpectedly, just as she was about to leave, a terrible shadow suddenly fell in front of her.
Nonaka Tomomi was startled, and stood up, looking up at the tall man in front of her, with a nervous look: "What, what's wrong?"
Gin reached into her pocket with a sullen face, and before she could react, he pulled his hand back, revealing a small recorder the size of a palm.
The tape recorder was running. Gin looked down, pressed the button to open the lid, and took out the tape.
Nonaka Tomomi's face changed slightly.
Then he smiled awkwardly and said, "Sorry, I forgot to turn it off before, I didn't mean to record it..."
