Chapter 15001508 [Case Closed]
Conan froze for a moment, then, with a cold sweat on his face, he moved away silently and hid behind a full-length clothes rack in the corridor.
He held his breath and hid behind the wide and fluffy skirt for a few seconds. He was just about to see if anyone was chasing him out from the bedroom.
But before he could stick his head out.
Boom, boom, boom
There were several gentle knocks on the bedroom door.
The man knocked on the door calmly and leisurely, as if he knew someone was snooping in the corridor but didn't care. Instead, he knocked to greet them out of politeness.
It sounds like the other party has no ill intentions.
However, thinking of the "adult" behind the woman in black, Conan could no longer understand it in a positive way - the knocking sound just now was a warning from the person in the door? !
…
At the same time, Conan was not the only one whose heart rate soared.
Separated by a wall.
When Okiya Subaru heard those knocks, he was also stunned for a moment: The person who was so elusive and didn't panic at all after being discovered, but instead showed a sense of self-righteousness, must be Wu...!
Okiya Subaru: “…” No, calm down.
Theoretically, Uzo should still be in Tokyo.
Besides, what should we do now? —The person outside is knocking on the door.
Okiya Subaru: “…” Do you want to open the door and take a look?
If the person knocking on the door was really Uzo, locking him out would only lead to a more miserable death.
Why not just open it and take a look? If it's someone else, then there's still room for maneuver. If it's Uzo, then there's no point in struggling...
Having said that, reason told Subaru Okiya to open the door and check, but his feet remained fixed in place and he refused to move even a step towards the door.
…
Subaru Okiya hid behind the door and Conan hid behind the clothes rack in the corridor while they were brainstorming.
Bedroom door.
A dark cat squatted at the foot of the dark wall in the dim light of the corridor and quietly retracted its claws that had just knocked on the door.
Then he looked around and raised his paw stealthily and knocked a few times.
Afterwards, it kept its fame and achievements hidden and dissipated in a low-key manner.
…
The knock on the door again finally broke the delicate balance.
In the bedroom.
A pair of heavy footsteps, ready to die, slowly walked to the door, and Subaru Okiya raised his hand and pressed the door handle.
Click, and the door opened a crack.
At the same time, a few meters away, behind the life-size clothes rack in the corridor.
Conan stuck out half of his head and looked at this scene. His heart beat violently and he swallowed unconsciously.
Just as the door was about to open, allowing him to see clearly who was in the room.
"Conan?"
A voice suddenly sounded from the other end of the corridor.
Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan seemed to notice that a child was missing, and they walked along the corridor to find him: "What are you doing hiding here?"
Mao Lilan took a few steps closer, looked at the "naughty child", and picked him up skillfully: "The front is the store where customers can enter. This is the private space of the store manager. Good children, don't barge in."
The two men returned to the front store with the naughty child they picked up without disturbing the beautiful store manager too much.
Conan was carried away stiffly.
On the way, he struggled to look back and found that the door that was just opened a little was closed again, like a closed secret.
…
After the three of them walked away.
In the bedroom behind the Gothic Lolita clothing store.
Subaru Okiya leaned against the door, slid down to the ground exhausted, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Subaru Okiya: “…” Judging from the noise outside just now, the person hiding in the corridor was not Usa, but the first-year boy with glasses who got excited whenever he encountered a case.
That being said, thinking back carefully, the location where the door was knocked just now did not sound very high.
It’s hard to imagine the indecent scene of Uzo squatting and knocking on the door, or kicking the door... In other words, from the beginning, the person standing at the door and knocking on the door was the child?
Okiya Subaru: “…” This naughty kid is really causing a lot of harm to others!
If Jiang Xia hadn't taken the person away in time, and the stalemate had continued for a while, he almost suspected that he would have developed high blood pressure.
"...Haha, I'm too suspicious. Uzo is so busy, how could he delay the battle abroad? If he really found out, there's no way I could walk out of Tokyo alive."
Having escaped a disaster once again, Subaru Okiya kept reminding himself in his heart:
"Don't make such assumptions in the future. There are many cases of sudden death among young people nowadays. If you escape from your boss but scare yourself to death, you will die with regrets... This is a foreign country. There is no Uzo here, really not..."
…
A police car came roaring in and quickly took Zhuang Tang Weijia away.
"I didn't expect that the murderer was really her. Then all my previous arrangements are useless."
Inspector Yasa muttered to himself, and when he found that the police officers who were escorting the murderer were very slow in coming, he suddenly remembered that he was still sending people to look for the "brutal Asian man" who was identified by the two tourists and appeared at the crime scene.
"Well, the case has been solved, let them all withdraw."
While sending a message to his subordinates, Inspector Yasa couldn't help but frown: Those two people should not have lied, so what's the matter with the brutal Asian man who appeared near the public toilet? It always feels a bit suspicious...
However, after a long time of searching, no one was caught. In addition, the case had already been solved, so Inspector Yasa had to put aside his suspicions for the time being.
He turned to look at the high school detective who was surrounded by several reporters, snorted, and handed the follow-up matters to his subordinates, then hurried back to the nearby pub - he was originally on vacation today, but who knew that a murder case would suddenly occur. Now that the case has been solved, it is time for him to continue his leisurely vacation.
Inspector Yasa: "..." Speaking of which, why is there so many cases around Jiang Xia? Including the murder on the plane last night, there have been two cases in less than 24 hours. He is really a disaster star...
He shook his head, stopped thinking about these bad things, and left quickly.
…
Next to it, in front of the store.
Jiang Xia didn't expect to meet reporters in the UK.
However, after a quick glance, he found that among these reporters, there was a person who spoke Japanese English, so he suddenly felt that he understood something: this person seemed to be a reporter who came from Tokyo to develop his career, no wonder he was so sensitive to murder cases.
Jiang Xia naturally would not refuse when a well-informed reporter came to interview him.
…
A few minutes later, he put a few brand new business cards into his pocket, picked up Haibara Ai, who was still shivering in the corner, and left the store.
Although London also has some famous detectives, the number seems to be less than that in Tokyo, and the response speed of the related industrial chain is also slow.
Half an hour later, Jiang Xia was sitting in a nearby store, drinking afternoon tea and refreshing the webpage when he finally found the relevant case report.
