Chapter 15641572 [Vodka's paranoia]
Inspector Yasa was too far away to hear Jiang Xia's words: "What did you say?"
Just as Jiang Xia was about to speak, "Kudo Yusaku"'s eyes twitched wildly. He grabbed him and condemned him in a low voice: "You actually called for external help?"... This is not a detective ethics!
Jiang Xia looked at him in surprise: "Detectives have always been good helpers and good friends of the police. Those lone rangers are just obsessed with solving cases and forget to look for the police, not that they don't know how to look for them."
Kidd: “…”
He looked at Police Inspector Yasa who was approaching and wanted to hear clearly what Jiang Xia was saying. He struggled for a while, but in the end he was very stubborn and did not say a word. He just moved secretly to a place where there were fewer police officers and slipped away quietly.
Kidd: “…” If it were normal times, there would be nothing wrong in telling Jiang Xia.
But after his investigation this time, he found out that the gem he wanted to steal was actually very likely a fake. If the detective knew that he had traveled so far for a fake, he would feel very embarrassed...
And as far as Kidd knew, the target of the theft this time, because of his own scandals, always disliked contact with reporters - presumably that person would not tell the media about receiving the notice letter, and would try to handle it in a low-key manner. In this way, he could also cooperate and go over to take a look in a low-key manner. If it was indeed a fake, he would leave without leaving a trace.
…
Jiang Xia looked at the direction where Kidd slipped away, thoughtfully.
Inspector Yassa asked him, "What did you just say?"
Jiang Xia said sincerely: "Nothing, just asking you to cheer up and clean up the mess."
Inspector Yasa: “…#”
After sending the busy and angry police inspector to work, Jiang Xia looked down at his phone and sent a message to Yoko Kinoshita.
…
Jiang Xia had been in the UK for a few days and had encountered numerous cases. During this time, the news about these cases broke faster and faster.
But it was not because he quickly became famous in the UK, but because some reporters from Tokyo heard the news and followed him to London - for these reporters, it was not easy to get a piece of news that was interesting enough.
Rather than squatting aimlessly for days, it is better to come to the UK to find a stable income in Jiangxia. Case reports are loved by men, women, young and old, and are a performance benchmark recognized by everyone.
Therefore, compared with Britain, the people of Tokyo received the news about Jiangxia faster.
…
Early the next morning.
Inspector Megure packed his luggage for his business trip early.
He packed his things into the box, then leaned back in the recliner, sipping tea and opening the newly delivered newspaper.
The first thing that catches your eye is a straightforward headline: "High school detective shows off his prowess in the UK!"
“Cough cough cough cough—”
Inspector Megure choked on his tea.
While calming himself down, he put the cup aside and stared at the newspaper with a complicated look.
Inspector Megure: “…” How many times have you seen this?
He recalled the various headlines in the newspapers, and for a moment he felt that London was about to become a branch of Tokyo.
"What's wrong?"
His wife heard the cough and stopped at the door curiously.
Inspector Megure sighed, took out the newspaper and handed it to her: "There's another case involving Jiang Xia. Aren't you going to make a collection of clippings of his cases? This one's for you."
Seeing his wife happily taking the newspaper, he couldn't help muttering, "Although I always say that I have to work overtime when Jiang Xia wanders around, it's just talk. But now he's going to London, and the number of cases in London has increased... I didn't expect that there really is such a thing as 'incident constitution' in the world. Look at the London police inspector in the photo, I always feel that after these cases, his hair is getting thinner and thinner, so pitiful."
"Maybe he's not used to having detectives help him solve cases." Megure Midoriya laughed. "You're talking about others, but your hair is getting thinner and thinner too. Remember to rest well on this business trip and don't overwork yourself."
…
At the same time.
A black vehicle was driving silently in the cold morning light of Tokyo.
Vodka had been busy all night and finally had some free time.
He opened the software he used to observe Uzo and secretly glanced at the message.
When he saw the contents clearly, his eyes suddenly jumped: "..." Another case, and the victim is Japanese again... How many cases have there been? When there is no rest from morning to night, Wu Zuo is really energetic.
After sighing for a while, Vodka suddenly remembered something and his mood suddenly dropped: "Oh, by the way, I remember that Wuzo's flight is tomorrow."
...He hadn't had time to enjoy a happy life without Uzo, but the little bastard was coming back. Was it because Londoners weren't interesting enough? Damn it, couldn't he just live there for seven or eight years?
A voice came from the back seat, and Vermouth was actually in the car.
She propped her elbows on the back of the front seat, laughed, and said jokingly, "I heard that your trading partner almost followed you to the safe house yesterday. I thought you would spend a few days reflecting on this matter, but I didn't expect you to have such a good attitude that you even have time to follow Uzo-Vodka. You really are like his illegitimate fan. I guess those wives who go to his office every day are not as well-informed as you."
Vodka: “…” Who would be a fan of that kind of shit? Don’t compare Uzo with my lovely idols!
But what Vermouth said just now did make Vodka alert - he seemed to be too relaxed after Wuzo left. This can't go on... Wait, maybe this is actually Wuzo's plan!
Vodka: “…” Whenever Wuzo saw him, he would always make fun of him or even make physical advances towards him.
If you think about it carefully, this is actually a high-intensity continuous pressure. After Uzo left and left this terrible environment, the pressure suddenly decreased, and it was easy to reveal flaws because of a moment of slackness.
Vodka: "..." During this time, the insidious Wu Zuo can use the back-up plan he left in advance to take advantage of the situation and lure him into making a fatal mistake, or use some dirty means to sow discord between him and his elder brother - Oh, right! I heard that Wu Zuo's younger brother has been very busy recently, and has been assigned a lot of tasks and is running around. This is different from Wu Zuo's usual state of letting his younger brother run free. There is a problem, a big problem!
Thinking that Uzo and his men might be targeting him, Vodka couldn't help but clench his fists in grief and anger, and decided to launch a small counterattack while Uzo was away.
Thinking of the reports about Jiang Xia that he had seen in the past few days, Vodka ignored Belmode in the back seat, pretended to care about Uzo, and tried to tactfully complain to his wise elder brother:
"Brother, Wu Zuo said he was going on a trip to relax these days, but in fact, he was just killing people when no one was watching him, and most of the people he killed were from Tokyo. This feature is too obvious! If someone with ulterior motives discovered the connection between him and the case..."
