Chapter 1484 1492 [The nanny is also an organizer? ]
Jiang Xia: “…” Organization cadres rarely go out, and Jiang Xia Tongzhi’s mother seems to be a researcher, and she sounds like a homebody.
To take a step back, even if the parents wanted to go abroad, the organization would not let them take their son with them - no matter how loyal they were, they would always have to leave some hostages behind, otherwise what if the whole family ran away?
Conan actually guessed what Mao Lilan was thinking, and snorted unhappily: "The babysitter that Jiang Xia had when she was a child seemed to be a foreigner. She taught him English since he was a baby, so how could her pronunciation be bad?"
He froze after saying that, and hastily added, "I heard it from Aunt Yukiko!"
Jiang Xia: "...That nanny is a foreigner?"
He thought about it for a long time but had no impression: Jiang Xiatongzhi didn't seem to have a very good memory, and he didn't have a happy childhood himself. The more he remembered about the past, the more he forgot.
...But it's not a big problem. It doesn't affect the psychic's ability to pick up ghosts and remove murderous aura and enjoy life.
Conan was a little surprised when he heard Jiang Xia's question: "You forgot all this? Well... But it's true, I don't have much impression of her. I just heard that she is a homebody who almost never goes out. When she goes out, she covers herself up tightly, just like she is allergic to the sun... This, this is also what Aunt Yukiko said!"
Mao Lilan: "..." Why does Aunt Yukiko always say these things to children... But she does seem to like Jiang Xia very much. After all, Jiang Xia's personality as a child is like two extremes of Kudo Shinichi's. Aunt Yukiko may have never seen that type of child before, and she looks at him in a strange way, so she is also impressed by people related to Jiang Xia.
As the only adult, Dr. Agasa also scratched his head when talking about the nanny: "Come to think of it, I don't have much impression of her either - but I don't go out often myself. If two people who don't go out often become neighbors, if there is no fate, they may not run into each other for several years in a row, hahahaha."
Mao Lilan came back to her senses and suddenly remembered something, which was a little funny: "No wonder when Jiang Xia climbed over the wall and was caught by Officer Sato, he made an excuse that he covered himself so tightly because he was allergic to the sun. It turns out that he had ready-made materials around him."
Jiang Xia: “…” That’s not the case. When he said that he was allergic to the sun that day, it was just an excuse for his sneaky behavior of covering his face.
Thinking of this, he was slightly stunned.
——In that case, perhaps the nanny was not "allergic to the sun" at all, but was an outlaw who was afraid of being in the light.
Jiang Xia: "..." Tsk, it's a pity that Jiang Xia Tongzhi became independent too early, and soon she won't need a nanny. Otherwise, she should have kept her until now to see what her murderous aura smells like...
Conan seemed to have thought of this possibility as well, and joked, "Maybe he really is a fugitive."
Mao Lilan shook her head: "Uncle Jiang Xia is such a good person, how could he be mixed up with wanted criminals. In fact, many people nowadays are fully armed when they go out in order to avoid getting tanned. That auntie may just be too fashionable and at the forefront of the trend."
Neither of them took it seriously.
——Conan firmly believed in his father's judgment. If there was really something wrong with Jiang Xia's family, then Kudo Yusaku, who lived next door, would definitely be able to see it. But Kudo Yusaku said nothing about it.
Mao Lilan didn't even think about that.
Among the people at the table, only Huibara Ai stared at the magazine in front of her, using the large pages to cover herself, her whole body cold: "..." She had never met the nanny, but now that she said that, maybe there really was something wrong with that person - after all, Huibara Ai knew in her heart that Jiang Xia's parents were not ordinary civilians, and Jiang Xia's English... seemed to have a bit of a London accent.
Huiyuan Ai: "..." Wait, could that nanny be from London? ! Is that person still alive? If she is from the organization and returned to London after completing some shady missions, then aren't they walking into danger by coming to the UK this time?
Huiyuan Ai thought about the things that happened before and after coming to England, and the things became smaller and smaller. She always felt that something terrible was about to happen. If she thought about it carefully, how could someone who could get along well in the organization be a good person? Maybe the mysterious person behind the woman in black the night before was actually carrying out a terrible conspiracy against Jiang Xia...
Just as I was thinking vigilantly, the door of the cafe suddenly opened.
Several people at the table heard the noise, turned around, and saw an extremely eye-catching woman walking in at the door.
The person was wearing a black dress, her dazzling blonde hair was tied into two fluffy ponytails, and she had a black and white hat on her head. Her skin was pale, her eyes were dark, and her lips were also black.
The black and red dress she was wearing looked a bit like a maid outfit at first glance, but the changes in the details made it look completely different.
Huibara Ai subconsciously clenched the pages of the book in her hand and became even more terrified.
But after a moment, she carefully felt it and found that the person who had just entered did not have the aura of an organization - it seemed to be just an ordinary woman wearing Gothic Lolita clothes.
Haibara Ai: “…” That’s right, there are not as many organization members here as in Tokyo.
Besides, cadres are such a precious resource that normally, you can’t find them even if you want to. How can you just happen to run into them every day…
She comforted herself, barely recovered from the terrible thought, and sat up straight again as if nothing had happened.
At this time, the guest in black dress at the door also walked in.
She looked around, passed Jiang Xia and others, and sat down at an empty table in the corner.
Only after she sat down did Dr. Agasa come to his senses.
The old man patted his chest and muttered quietly: "Why are you dressed like a witch? Today is not Halloween."
Opposite him, Mao Lilan had a completely different opinion. The female high school student's eyes sparkled: "What a cute Gothic Lolita!"
Dr. Agasa: “…What is that?”
Conan retracted his gaze from the woman. "It's Gothic Lolita, a style of clothing that's dark and a bit doll-like. It can be considered a product of cultural fusion. This dress is very suitable for this occasion."
Mao Lilan: "..." How come Conan knows so much about women's clothing? Could it be Jiang... No, Jiang Xia would never teach such a thing.
Did Conan secretly look at the fashion magazines she kept in the bookshelf?
Dr. Agasa nodded with sudden realization and added this strange new knowledge to his knowledge base.
"A bit of a gloomy doll style..." At the same time, he looked at Huiyuan Ai thoughtfully, "It sounds like a melancholy little Ai, do you want to buy one too?"
Haibara Ai's eyes drifted to the side: "..." Although there is no Gothic Lolita, but just now, Mouri Ran really took advantage of her unpreparedness and made her try on a Lolita outfit.
