Chapter 125 Is Jiang Xia also going to become smaller?
Jiang Xia left Gin's car and returned to the detective agency.
He briefly counted his harvest and went about his daily work with satisfaction.
…
But on the other hand, some people cannot return to their peaceful daily lives.
——While Conan was tracking Tequila, he was stabbed unconscious by an unknown child.
He had a chaotic nightmare and suddenly sat up, and found himself back home.
Mao Lilan brought him a glass of water and said, "You're awake. Don't run around anymore, especially in crowded places."
"...Yeah, okay." Conan answered absentmindedly.
What happened today made his mind a mess.
——What is the man in black dealing with? Who is that strange kid who made him faint? In addition, he pretended to be sick and paralyzed people with great skill. Could this person be a fake kid like me?
…
Conan slipped out of the house while Ran Mouri was not paying attention and returned to the venue.
On the way, he tried to call Jiang Xia to ask about the situation, but no one answered the phone.
I thought Jiang Xia was busy solving the case, but...
…
Conan looked at Sato Miwako and repeated in confusion: "... Already gone? Didn't solve the case?"
"Yes." Officer Sato sighed, "There is no specific suspect in today's case. We can't pinpoint the exact time when the bomb was placed. The bomb may have been taken away by someone who didn't know about it. We can't even confirm the initial location... No matter how good Jiang Xia is at solving cases, it's difficult for him to provide us with effective advice without any clues. Besides, he had other things to do at the time."
"Something else?" Conan thought of the tall man in black and his heart trembled. Could it be that Jiang Xia also noticed the people from the organization?
But it is not.
Officer Sato raised his hand and flicked Conan's head, feeling that this kid was very clueless: "We were looking for you. We thought you were stepped on, and we searched for a long time together - why did you run out alone again? Where are your parents? What's their phone number?"
Conan: “…”
Seeing that Officer Sato was about to escort him home, he hurriedly changed the subject: "Well, what happened next? Where did Brother Jiang Xia go?"
Miwako Sato really thought about it and said, "When I came back, I saw him walking out of the door with two girls. Then he said he had something else to do and left in a hurry."
Conan was stunned. He felt that this sentence and this scene gave him a strong sense of déjà vu.
After a moment, he remembered - a while ago, in the amusement park, Kudo Shinichi also said similar words to Mouri Ran, and hurried away with a similar expression... Then that night, "Kudo Shinichi" turned into "Edogawa Conan".
From Conan's perspective, the man in black at the press conference looked even more suspicious than Gin and Vodka. Jiang Xia's observation skills were so strong. What if he was the same as Kudo Shinichi back then...
As Conan thought about it, his face turned pale, and under Sato's puzzled gaze, he rushed out the door.
He recalled the call he had just made to Jiang Xia, but the call was hung up in seconds. His eyes gradually became solemn, and his mind had automatically fast-forwarded to the scene of the young version of Jiang Xia holding his bleeding head, wearing adult clothes, standing at the door of the doctor's house with a cold face and ringing the doorbell...
"..." However, if you think about it carefully, Jiang Xia's skills are much better than "Kudo Shinichi".
...But this is not a good thing. If Gin or someone else hits him with a stick and Jiang Xia dodges, then what will be behind him is definitely a gun loaded with bullets - those lawless lunatics will not have any martial ethics!
