Chapter 15191527 [Okiya Subaru's Last Stand]
Okiya Subaru: “…” In comparison, he has not offended anyone and lives his life so cautiously, but he often feels that he will not live long... Alas, this unfair world.
Jiang Xia didn't pay attention to his younger brother's secretly changing eyes and vicissitudes of life expression.
Rather than analyzing his complex inner world, Jiang Xia was more interested in another thing at this moment.
He looked at the agent with a hint of curiosity: "Security is so strict, how did you bring the gun out?"
The agent smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Now that things have come to this, I am not afraid to tell you that I got the gun after I got here. You also know... Oh, no, you are still young and it is not illegal. You may not know that the sale of guns in the country is strictly controlled.
“I contacted many people but couldn’t buy a gun. Later, I learned that the crew would soon go abroad to shoot, so I changed my mind and contacted the seller in the UK.
"Now that I have opened my mind, I decided to do it here. Originally, I wanted to find an opportunity to ask him out and shoot him, and then throw him into the river, but I didn't expect the crew to rent a building here... The conditions are too good, and this building is really suitable for the murder method I had conceived before, so I couldn't help but do it here."
Jiang Xia: "..." Strict gun control? Maybe you just didn't find the right channel. After all, when he was in Tokyo, it felt like anyone around him could get a gun.
Okiya Subaru was lost in thought when he suddenly noticed Jiang Xia looking at him. He was startled: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Xia shook his head, like a good detective who cares about an acquaintance: "I was just thinking, it's a good thing the murderer is not you."
Okiya Subaru was somewhat touched, but at the same time, the experience in the warehouse just now emerged in his mind uncontrollably, and he couldn't help but shudder secretly.
At the same time, he completely came back to his senses.
Subaru Okiya: "..." When Jiang Xia just caught him out of the warehouse, he noticed that Jiang Xia and the fake kid next to him seemed to have other questions to ask, but there were still a lot of people here, so they didn't ask.
Now Jiang Xia suddenly said something to him, which reminded Okiya Subaru - he decided to find an opportunity to escape secretly, otherwise if he was stopped and asked why he disguised himself to go abroad, he really didn't know what to say.
…
The case has been solved, but there is still a lot of work to be done and the scene is quite messy.
Inspector Asa tiredly arranged the work, left the finishing touches to Sheriff Anna, and planned to leave as soon as possible.
During this process, Conan has been trying to ask the agent about the person who sold the gun to her, in order to determine whether this has any connection with the Black Organization.
However, the agent was tight-lipped, or perhaps she had never met the seller and only received the gun that the other party left at the transaction point. In the end, she was unable to provide any useful information on this matter.
As the agent left in the police car, Conan finally came to his senses.
Then he was surprised to find that another person he cared about had disappeared quietly without a sound.
"Where is Mr. Okiya?!" Conan looked at Jiang Xia beside him.
"Isn't it over there?" Jiang Xia withdrew his gaze from the police car that was going away, pointed casually, and then stared at the direction he was pointing in shock, "Where is the person who was there just now?"
"..." Conan then remembered that when he was trying to get some information from his agent just now, Jiang Xia had been eavesdropping curiously beside him. Probably like himself, he didn't notice where Okiya Subaru had gone.
Conan: "..." Damn it, he wanted to ask why Okiya Subaru used a fake identity to go abroad and why he worked as a prop master in the crew. But considering that Okiya Subaru would not be taken away by the police, he asked the agent first. Who knew that Okiya Subaru would run so fast.
It seems that because he doesn't know about the woman in black and the "adult" she mentioned, Jiang Xia is a little curious about the reason why Okiya Subaru did this, but he is not as persistent as Conan.
He comforted her, "Forget it, it's too late today, and Mr. Okiya seems to be very shocked because he was regarded as a suspect. Let's not bother him. Let's visit him again when we have time. Judging from his appearance, he may have something to hide. There must be some secrets in our adult world."
Conan looked at him silently: "..." You are only one year older than me, how did you confidently classify yourself into the "Secret World of Adults"...
However, Jiang Xia obviously had no intention of looking for Okiya Subaru.
Not to mention others.
Thinking of the woman in black who was nowhere to be found, Conan did not dare to persist and silently followed the others back to the resting place - forget it, they still have one day, Okiya Subaru is in the crew, as long as he is willing, he can always find a way to meet him by chance and then ask him those questions that have accumulated for a long time.
Conan nodded secretly.
…
The plan is wonderful.
But unfortunately, Subaru Okiya has decided to run away.
That night, it was pitch black in the early morning.
A sneaky figure dragged a suitcase, left the crew building, and took a taxi to the circus.
After leaving, Subaru Okiya sent an email to the director - since he was just a small-time figure, it was convenient for him to run away.
…
The touring circus has rented a special venue.
"You must be the trainee prop master who came here to help with odd jobs."
A beautiful woman received Okiya Subaru, but her reception was not so enthusiastic, and she seemed to have a hint of disdain for people with connections:
"We just arrived, and there are a lot of things that need to be sorted. Go and help us pack them up. But since you just arrived, we don't know your level yet, so don't go to the prop warehouse. What if you damage the precious props? Go and help carry the luggage."
Okiya Subaru nodded, not caring about her attitude, put down his luggage and plunged into his busy work.
Maybe it’s because circuses often open at night, or maybe it’s because I haven’t adjusted to the time difference yet.
Anyway, after entering the venue, Subaru Okiya found that this place was full of night owls. The members were organizing props and rehearsing in preparation for the performance tomorrow night.
Subaru Okiya: "..." According to Mr. Akai's plan, after arriving at the circus, he should try to mix with the animals, avoid contact with others, and minimize his presence. Then he will follow this global touring circus and successfully make it to the United States.
However, after helping the circus move all the goods on the truck into the venue, Chong Shi Subaru was stunned for a moment when he saw the rows of empty cages.
"Um, what about the animals?" His eyes swept across the cages and finally stopped at a square cage in the corner. He found a strange object thrown inside. "Imitation white tiger leather cover? What is it used for?"
