Chapter 145: Being sent back home... Is there such a good thing?
Hattori Heiji: “…” He was just one step away and was actually seen.
He clenched his fist unwillingly.
Then again, he clearly didn't make any noise just now, and Jiang Xia was looking at the innkeeper in front of him. But just as he was about to leave, Jiang Xia actually noticed him. Such terrible insight...
…
If Jiang Xia hadn't seen him, Hattori Heiji could of course leave without any pressure.
But if he leaves now, it would be as if he is deliberately avoiding Jiang Xia... He always feels embarrassed.
In addition, Hattori Heiji thought that Kazuha was a girl with principles. Even if Jiang Xia targeted him like she targeted Kudo, Kazuha would definitely not easily accompany Jiang Xia out for fun like Kudo's girlfriend did.
…
Mao Lilan was listening to the lecture attentively just now, but when she turned around, she found Jiang Xia walked to the door and was standing with Hattori Heiji.
So she also walked over and wanted to say hello to someone she knew.
However, as soon as he approached, he inexplicably received an extremely complicated gaze from Hattori Heiji.
Mao Lilan stopped in confusion: "......?"
…
After Mr. Jingu explained the rules, he handed out a thick stack of "1000 Questions About Sherlock Holmes" to the visitors.
Only those who answer more than 990 questions correctly and submit the paper before dinner tomorrow can participate in the reasoning question and answer session tomorrow night.
"And if you can't reach 990 points." Boss Jingu put away his smile and turned cold, "Get out of my hotel immediately - fake fans like you don't deserve to stay here!"
Hattori Heiji's eyes lit up slightly.
However, just as the light came on, Jiang Xia next to him suddenly gave him a silent look.
Hattori Heiji: "..."
Boss Jingu didn’t notice the interaction between the two fake fans.
He continued, "Cheating will be treated as 0 points. In addition, each room is equipped with surveillance cameras, so remember to be more self-disciplined when answering questions."
After explaining the rules, the helper came forward with a small basket and took away all the reference books and mobile phones. He also gave everyone a room key.
…
It was getting late, Jiang Xia finished his dinner and went into his room.
He wanted to open his phone and play some games, but after a moment of hesitation, he finally opened the 1,000-question test.
They were not worried about eavesdropping devices and surveillance cameras—Boss Jingu was just bluffing them. The "camera" in the corner of the room was actually just an empty shell.
But if you don’t write a single word, it will look very strange if you find out the next day.
…
The night passed quickly.
The next day was the time given by the organizer for answering questions.
At the same time, this day is also the day when the Junior Detective Team goes to Agasa's villa to hunt for treasure.
…
After lunch, Jiang Xia calculated the time, drove the Mist Tengu's puppet, and rushed towards the villa.
He originally thought that a villa rising from the ground in the deserted mountains should be very conspicuous and could be found by flying around twice.
But after climbing to the top of the mountain, Jiang Xia looked down and fell into deep thought.
At the foot of the mountain, there is a villa every few hundred meters. From Jiangxia's perspective, it looks like it is densely packed.
“……”Why do so many people like to build villas in places like this.
Keeping up with the trend?
…
Jiangxia stood on the top of a towering mountain, looking at the villa complex stretching out below him, and wrapped his wings tightly to block the mountain wind.
In this cold world and with such cold routines, only these furry wings still have some warmth.
Xiao Bai was left by Jiang Xia next to the main body, so that he could remind him to switch accounts when something happened. Mist Tengu was doing his best to support the puppet.
Jiang Xia then looked at Miyano Akemi who was lying on his shoulder: "Can you feel the murderous aura? Or sense your sister?"
Miyano Akemi closed her eyes, sensed for a while with a serious face, then opened them again and looked at him with a QAQ expression.
Jiang Xia: "..." Okay, he understood. The distance was too far to sense.
...I can only find it myself.
Jiang Xia sighed, drove the Mist Tengu's puppet, jumped off the cliff, and flew towards a villa with a pointed roof, which was suspected to have an attic.
He remembered that Dr. Agasa's villa was of this style.
…
Jiang Xia flew from dusk to dark, and finally saw Dr. Agasa's brightly colored Beetle sedan at the door of a villa.
He took a look from a distance and breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he switched to Miyano Akemi's puppet, stepped lightly, and approached secretly.
Soon, Jiang Xia's gaze stopped outside the villa.
——Beside the window, there was a sneaky figure, an adult man. He was wearing casual clothes, with a hairstyle like a non-bald kappa, a long and pointed chin, and a typical villain look.
At this time, the villain was holding a gun in his hand, looking through the window into the villa with a ferocious look on his face.
