Chapter 1455 1463 [Uzo's affairs have nothing to do with me]
Subaru Okiya refreshed the interface over and over again, and every time he refreshed, a new way of Akai Shuichi's death emerged in his mind.
But even though he was worried, he actually preferred to believe that Shuichi Akai was still alive.
There is a reason for not replying messages.
In fact, today, before leaving for the airport, Subaru Okiya received an email from Shuichi Akai - the fake "Subaru Okiya" had accepted a mission and was currently busy with it.
Subaru Okiya had also received missions assigned to peripheral members by the organization before, and he knew very well that most of the time, people were too busy to check their phones.
I have refreshed my mailbox numerous times with no success.
Okiya Subaru had no choice but to suppress his temper and switch back to the group chat interface.
The group he was watching was the crew he was following this time.
When I clicked on it, I saw that just like before, those people who had run out to watch the show were uploading the news they saw at the crime scene.
While silently praying that they would not take pictures of Uzo, so as not to bring fatal disaster to the entire crew, Okiya Subaru carefully recorded the various situations at the scene and tried to analyze the possible role Uzo played in it.
As he was thinking, his gaze stopped on Jiang Xia and the little boy through the phone screen.
Okiya Subaru: “…”Come to think of it, why are they this group of people again?
Mr. Akai said before that Jiang Xia would not be Usa.
Based on Okiya Subaru's own observations, he also felt that Jiang Xia's personality was completely different from Usa's, and they were not the same kind of people at all.
But... this is such a coincidence.
Okiya Subaru: "..." There is no such thing as a coincidence in the world. There must be some conspiracy by Usa.
If we can figure out why Jiang Xia showed up at the airport, we might be able to get some information about Wu Zuo, or even find out his undercover. But...
Subaru Okiya quickly drove this thought out of his mind: What do Usa's other subordinates have to do with him, a man who is about to breathe the free air on the other side of the ocean?
Getting involved in this now will only lead to fatal disaster. It is better to keep a low profile and focus on escaping. As for the rest, I will deal with it after I successfully escape...
…
In a lounge at the airport.
Inspector Megure walked to the table and sat down. Across the table, on the other side was Sugimoto Hideki, the young man who had argued with the man who fell from the building.
Jiang Xia looked around, dragged a stool over, and sat on the side to listen.
Sugimoto Hideki glanced at him, seeming to be a little repulsed by the presence of the detective, but he soon lowered his head and said nothing more.
Miwako Sato looked at the taciturn man and asked, "Why did you have a conflict?"
Sugimoto Hideki sighed, "I was thirsty just now, so I went to the vending machine to buy a bottle of juice. But when I drank it, I accidentally spilled the drink on my hands. I like to be clean, so I wanted to go to the bathroom and rinse it off immediately, but I had my luggage with me."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the side.
There was a suitcase and a backpack there.
"My hands were stained with sticky drinks, and if I didn't want to get them on other places, I had to drag the suitcase through the door with one hand, but the bathroom was narrow and that was really inconvenient.
"I happened to see people coming and going in the nearby shops. I thought that with so many people present, no one would shamelessly steal things, so I temporarily put my luggage at the door of the bathroom, intending to go in and rinse my hands and come out right after that."
Officer Gao Mu looked at the young office worker and felt that he lacked common sense. He could not help but remind him: "It is easiest to lose things in places where there are a lot of people coming and going."
Sugimoto Hideki sighed: "I have never lost before, so I have no experience. Now I know."
He continued, "When I went in to wash my hands, I found that the drink had flowed deeper than I thought and had already stained my sleeves. I had to turn up my sleeves to rinse. When I wrung out the water and came out, all my luggage was gone."
He shook his head in fear: "Looking more carefully, I saw that the man was holding my bag, dragging my suitcase, and was about to leave.
"I rushed over to him to ask for my luggage, but although he released the suitcase, he refused to give me my backpack back... It's really a world gone wrong. I was very angry and started fighting with him for it.
"He was very strong. At the time, I was concentrating on the bag and didn't notice that we had moved to the railing. As a result, the bag strap suddenly broke, and he lost his balance and fell backwards. Then..."
At this point, Sugimoto Hideki seemed to remember the horrific appearance of the corpse falling from the building. He closed his eyes, unable to bear to watch it, shook his head, and said no more.
"I see..." Sato Miwako confirmed as she checked the records, "So you don't know him?"
"Of course I don't know him!" Sugimoto Hideki shook his head, a little angry, "I don't have such a shameless thief friend!"
Inspector Megure hummed, touched his chin, and felt that he understood:
"So in general, the situation is that a thief stole a bag, but was caught on the spot, and fell during the struggle. Alas, another unfortunate, uh..."
He was going to say, it was just another unfortunate accident.
But before he opened his mouth, Inspector Megure suddenly remembered something and unconsciously turned his head to glance at Jiang Xia.
"..." Although he didn't want to admit it, his experience told him that when these detectives were present, there would be no such thing as a simple accident...
He took a quick glance and saw Jiang Xia was also looking at him.
As if seeing that he had finished speaking, the young detective spoke politely.
Jiang Xia looked across at Sugimoto Hideki and said, "When you go to the bathroom, the suitcase is hard to drag, so it's acceptable to leave it outside, but why did you leave the backpack with it? If you're just washing your hands, the bag on your back won't affect your movements. On the contrary, the action of putting down the backpack will make it more likely that your luggage will get stained with juice."
Inspector Megure was startled, then he was enlightened, and his eyes became sharp: "Yes, why?"
Sugimoto Hideki was still calm and was not stumped by the question. He raised his hand and gestured: "My suitcase is cheaper and does not have so many hidden locks. Doesn't it have a handle on the top? Even if the handle is retracted, it can be easily pulled up again.
"So I think if there was only one box there, it would be a piece of cake to steal it. It's too easy, and it would be bad if someone had bad intentions.
"So I put my backpack on top. This way, if someone wants to take my luggage away, they have to move quite a bit, which makes it much more difficult. This way, no one will steal it! And once you get used to carrying it, it's actually very easy to put it down, and the juice won't get on your hands during the process."
