Chapter 1187-1195 [Vodka's Conspiracy] Added to the leader [Gan He Zushi]
With the fragrance of apples lingering around her body, Vermouth stepped on the accelerator and merged into the traffic. Soon, she and Jiang Xia disappeared from the police's search range.
…
"We can't catch anyone..."
The next day, in the Metropolitan Police Department.
Vodka sat in his spacious and bright office, staring at the information compiled by his police subordinates, feeling a headache.
The idea of "locking Wuzo up in a small dark room and beating him up" is a very good idea.
But in reality, after a serious search, Vodka discovered to his dismay that he couldn't find even a single hair of Uzo... Of course, Uzo had normal black hair, and even if he lost his hair, he wouldn't be as easy to find as Shirley and Big Brother Gin... But anyway, Vodka realized that if he continued like this, his ambitions would not make any substantial progress.
Vodka: “…” How about just let it go?
...But if you miss this opportunity to chase Wuzo everywhere and gain an absolute advantage, there may not be a next time. And once you succeed, you will never have to worry about being dragged into a disaster. It is like clearing all future death traps with one click.
Vodka thought about it and decided to give it another try.
——The police inspector's identity still has its advantages. He explored around these few days and found that he could use almost any of the props and personnel of the Investigation Section here... Of course, he couldn't use rocket launchers or machine guns, but some other props were enough to give him more advantages.
Vodka: “…” Anyway, make a few more small attempts.
If that doesn't work, then retreat behind the scenes, wait until the game is over, and then pretend nothing happened and blend into the team... By the way, before that, you must keep your vest tightly.
So what should we do next?
It was a rare occasion that Vodka used his own brain without Gin's instructions.
…
The next day, Jiang Xia was enjoying dessert in another hotel when his pager suddenly rang.
He opened it and found that it was an unfamiliar number, which was different from the number Gin had sent before - he didn't know whether Gin had changed places again or it was sent by someone else.
Jiang Xia thought for a moment, found a telephone booth some distance away from the hotel, asked Vermouth to pick him up on the roadside, and dialed the number.
"Hello? Senior Jiang Xia?" A young voice came from the receiver, sounding a little sneaky, "It's me, Zuo Mu!"
"..." Saaki?
Jiang Xia recalled the events surrounding the new member gift package and quickly formed an impression of it.
This person seems to be "Jiang Xia's" junior, Saki Ryuta. Because the Saki family runs a video company, Saki Ryuta usually keeps a camera in his hand - on the night of Tachibana Goryu's death, it was Saki Ryuta who carried a camera and went to the study with the servants, and then witnessed the crime scene of "Jiang Xia".
Therefore, the videotape from that incident became an extremely important piece of physical evidence in the death case of Tachibana Goryeo.
——By now, this videotape should have been taken away by the police and stored in the Metropolitan Police Department.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia had a vague premonition in his heart: "What's the matter?"
"Inspector Uozuka has copied the relevant evidence, and he just returned the videotape to me!" Junior Sasaki sounded a little happy, "I heard from Mr. Kurosawa that you need to collect clues to get rid of the crime - this videotape records the crime scene, and it should contain a lot of key evidence. I wanted to give it to Mr. Kurosawa just now, but when I went there, I found that there were police officers around his house, so I came back..."
It sounds like Junior Sasaki has a clear mind: he knows that he is helping a "fugitive murderer" in the eyes of the police, and this matter must be kept secret from the police.
"The videotape..."
Without Zuo Mu emphasizing too much, Jiang Xia also knew that this must be the key clue and must be obtained.
"It's better to do it today than to wait for a better day. No matter what preparations you make, you will definitely be followed. Let's do it this afternoon." Jiang Xia thought for a while, told him a few things about the handover, and then hung up the phone.
…
After Jiang Xia left the phone booth, he quickly got into Vermouth's car.
However, the two did not go far. Instead, they went around to where they could see the telephone booth and stopped quietly for a while.
The call just now lasted a long time, enough for the police to locate Jiang Xia.
But after waiting for nearly half an hour, no one came.
"It seems that this Zuomu doesn't stand on the side of the police." Vermouth leaned against the car window and looked out. "Of course, we can't rule out that the call was not long enough. The police knew that they would not have time to block you in the phone booth, so they deliberately did not show up and planned to arrest you when you went to get the videotape."
Jiang Xia nodded: "There must be a trap. How can evidence like the on-site videotape be returned to the owner immediately? But generally speaking, it shouldn't be that difficult."
As he spoke, he looked at the parkour people who were riding motorcycles on the suburban roads in the distance, then turned to look at Vermouth, and like a friendly elder, he raised his hand and patted her shoulder: "Go, it's your turn."
Vermouth: “…Hmm?”
…
That afternoon.
Ryuta Saki recalled what Jiang Xia had said to him on the phone earlier, went out, got on his bicycle, threw the paper bag containing the videotape into the wire basket in front of him, and quickly rode away.
Not long after walking along the street, a car that had been parked on the side of the road for a long time started up and followed silently.
Vodka sat in the car, with a group of his subordinates, following behind Ryuta Saki.
Although it looked low-key, there were few vehicles on this road. Against this backdrop, this kind of tracking looked almost blatant.
"Inspector, isn't this too..." The police inspector sitting next to him hesitated to speak.
Voltga waved his hand and said, "Keep this distance and keep following!"
It was bound to be exposed, there was no way around it. Whether it was Uzo or Vermouth, Vodka didn't expect that this "tracking" from the police could be hidden from them.
——Let alone this group of useless policemen, even if Vodka went alone, he would definitely be found soon. In fact, the moment Uzo heard that the videotape was returned, he would realize that the police had to take action.
Vodka was also very open-minded:
In this case, we might as well not pursue the "hiddenness of tracking".
One thing is certain - no matter how it happens, Uzo will eventually be attracted to the tape.
As long as we grasp this point, we will definitely be able to find Wuzo. This is much easier than searching for people on the busy streets at night.
