Chapter 1363 1371 [Vodka's Surveillance]
Suddenly realizing this, Conan silently closed his mouth and broke out in a cold sweat.
- Although Xiaolan has no experience as a detective, perhaps it is the legendary "woman's intuition". She often suspects that "Conan" is related to the missing "Kudo Shinichi", or even that Conan is Kudo Shinichi himself.
Conan hid the Black Organization and his shrinking from Ran Mouri for her safety at first. For Ran Mouri, who was as pure as a blank sheet of paper, knowing the organization hidden in the shadows was a very dangerous thing. In addition, the wise and brave Kudo Shinichi failed to track him and was knocked unconscious by Gin. This sounded too embarrassing, and Conan subconsciously didn't want to elaborate.
And now, Conan has another reason for not wanting to say that he is "Kudo Shinichi" - it would be fine if he confessed at the beginning, but now he has concealed it for so long, and suddenly the fact that "Conan = Kudo Shinichi" is exposed to Mouri Ran... He really doesn't want Mouri Ran to accidentally commit manslaughter after knowing the truth, and he doesn't want to be hospitalized.
Conan: "..." In short, in this situation, if he let it slip that his birthday is the same as Kudo Shinichi's birthday, it would be terrible.
Even if this is not conclusive evidence... Xiaolan is not a detective or a police officer. She doesn't need any evidence to find out the truth.
…
Thinking of the outcome, Conan shuddered silently, turned his head to look at Jiang Xia gratefully, and nodded slightly to this reliable neighbor.
Jiang Xia looked back, as if she knew what he was thinking. She raised her hand and patted his shoulder, her eyes seemed to speak: Don't worry, your life shouldn't end here. You still have more important things to do - such as living happily in Tokyo, or going out for a trip from time to time to relax.
…
The group of people seemed harmonious, but in fact they all chatted with their own thoughts.
In the blink of an eye it was dusk.
Pu Siqinglan looked out the window, seeing the obvious change in the sky, and breathed a sigh of relief silently: Just be patient and wait until dark - according to the itinerary, they must spend the night on the boat tonight, and when it gets dark, it will be the best time to silence the witnesses and deal with the bodies.
After tonight, Jiang Xia will stay in this water forever.
When she thought of this, Pu Siqinglan couldn't help feeling relaxed all over.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Jiang Xia walked over and opened the door, and saw the elegant-looking secretary Nishino standing outside.
The squinting secretary pushed up his glasses and said, "The view on the deck is just right right now. Mr. Suzuki asked me to ask if you guys would like to go over and enjoy the view."
…
It just so happened that a group of people had been chatting for a long time and there was nothing else to talk about in a short time.
So they quickly reached a consensus, stood up and walked into the corridor, ready to go to the deck.
The moment the door opened and closed, sunlight shone in from the window. On the ceiling of the corridor, a black decorative nail silently reflected the faint light.
The camera, which is only a few millimeters in diameter, captures the scene in the corridor clearly.
Its image was projected on a laptop screen from a considerable distance away. Vodka's face was reflected on the dim screen.
Vodka looked at the harmonious scene on the surveillance screen, picked up the cold lunch box next to him, took a bite, and silently snorted with disdain.
Chairman Suzuki's itinerary is not difficult to guess - when Jiang Xia was sleeping comfortably in the room last night counting the murderous auras, Vodka went out overnight and quietly made corresponding arrangements on the ship and installed his electronic "spy".
Although the matter of "Scotts" was nominally taken care of by Wuzo, it was just talk - if we really put our minds at ease and leave everything to the reliable Wuzo... Ugh! Wuzo himself was not "reliable" at all, so we would never be able to rest assured!
Vodka sighed silently:
Normally, it would be fine. But recently, Brother Gin seemed to be more free because of the extra care from his boss.
Therefore, he decided to keep an eye on him as long as he could. He also secretly observed how Uzo hooked his target during his actions. Although Gin had never directly asked Jiang Xia about this due to his pride as a strong man, it was unlikely that he was not curious.
Tailing is always a boring job. Although it was Gin who issued the order, when it came to actually implementing it, the responsibility fell on Vodka.
As Vodka thought about it, he couldn't help but yawn at the computer screen: Although the word "Uzo" itself is a powerful stimulus that directly hits his survival instinct. But Jiang Xia can't be making trouble every minute. In fact, it's the opposite. After peeping, Vodka found that most of the time, Uzo looked like a normal high school student who was bored. Only from his occasional changes in his eyes and his gentle gaze at Shi Kaobing, he could see a little bit of the terrible evil in his heart.
"This job is so annoying. Even if Uzo hasn't done anything yet, just looking at him makes me feel something is wrong." Vodka compared it in his mind to the feeling of "a normal person seeing a giant cockroach" and nodded affirmatively: Yes, that's the feeling.
"It's better to trade with those vicious guys. At least if they make unusual moves, we can just shoot them to death and it will count as performance. But if Wuzo makes unusual moves... Tsk."
I was mentally cursing the bastard who made me work overtime.
At this moment, in the surveillance video, Jiang Xia, who was originally heading to the deck with others, suddenly turned his head as if he realized something and looked towards the surveillance camera.
The two of them suddenly looked at each other across the screen. Vodka's heart skipped a beat, as if someone had poured a basin of ice water on him, and he instinctively held his breath.
After a moment, he finally realized that there was no way Uzo could see him through the camera.
Even if he saw it, he couldn't crawl out of the computer from such a distance.
After confirming this, Vodka snorted again. He cleared his throat, adjusted his sitting posture, picked up the coffee next to him and drank it all, then looked at the screen leisurely with an attitude of controlling everything.
I kept telling myself in my heart: Coincidence, this must be a coincidence.
Even if Wu Zo really has the ability to read minds, he would not be able to see himself - a qualified member of the Black Organization would never allow any unplanned cameras to appear around him!
Vodka looked at the camera on his laptop, which had been physically covered for years, and the surrounding environment that had been checked several times, and finally calmed down.
…
On the Suzuki family's yacht.
Jiang Xia always felt that when he opened and closed the door just now, the reflectivity of a decorative nail on the roof was different from the others, so he turned around and took a few more glances.
After a moment's hesitation, he looked away and continued to walk towards the deck as if nothing had happened.
