Chapter 1578 1586 [Uzo's Terrible New Hobby] Ask for a Monthly Ticket ()
After confirming the situation at the main gate, Conan walked back with a serious expression.
Hearing the conversation between Jiang Xia and Xiaosong Jun, Conan quickly understood the situation. He looked at Xiaosong Jun's coy look and decisively joined the conversation: "Show us, Xiaosong brother - to be honest, we have never received a love letter from a cute girl, and maybe we will never see it in this life, so give us a chance."
Mao Lilan: "..." She remembered the magical hole in Jiang Xia's desk that was never used but was always filled with all kinds of pink gifts and envelopes.
Although it may sound a bit exaggerated, it is fact that as a detective who can bend and stretch himself, he must have the skill of "sweet talk" when necessary.
"Hahaha, really? Maybe you are still young. When you grow up and enter society, you will be able to receive love letters like your brother."
Xiao Songjun was obviously very pleased with these words. He no longer hesitated, and took out a piece of beautiful letter paper from his pocket and handed it over: "Here, read it carefully, don't damage it."
Jiang Xia raised his hand to take the letter, but before he could open it, Xiao Songjun's stomach growled across from him.
The somewhat innocent man touched his big belly and said belatedly, "Oh, I suddenly remembered that I haven't eaten yet. I wanted to treat everyone to a meal at noon and talk things over, but this unfortunate thing happened and the girl didn't show up... Let's go to a nearby restaurant and talk while we eat. I know a restaurant with very good food!"
…
Although investigating the case is important, we cannot let important witnesses go hungry.
So even though the group had just finished their meal, they still went to the restaurant that Xiaosong Jun mentioned.
Jiang Xia and others followed Xiao Songjun and left the building where the fall occurred.
In another building nearby.
Subaru Okiya stood behind the window, munching on the ice cream he had just bought while gazing at the scenery like a tired tourist.
But of course he was not looking at the scenery of London, but Jiang Xia and the witness in the case.
Watching the detectives running around investigating the case, Okiya Subaru actually enjoyed the rare pleasure of solving the case.
Subaru Okiya: “…” The choice just now was indeed the right one. It would be wiser to stay with Jiang Xia than to follow Ireland.
——After all, the only dangerous thing around Jiangxia was murder. In fact, all those murders were controlled by his superiors, so no matter how thrilling the case looked, the fatal danger contained in it would not hit him, a loyal subordinate who had surrendered, for no reason.
Subaru Okiya couldn't help but recall the great sense of security he had gained after raising the white flag. After a moment, he realized what he was thinking, and his conscience suddenly felt a pang again.
But even though my conscience aches, I am so happy now that when I encounter a case, I don’t have to panic, I don’t have to be nervous, I don’t have to be afraid of the police, and I don’t have to worry about being chased... Especially compared with the hellish experience of the past few days, my current situation is like heaven.
Okiya Subaru: “…” Come to think of it, it must have been within Usa’s expectations that he would have such thoughts.
He knew that this change in mentality was a conspiracy by his superiors, but he still fell into the trap irresistibly. Is this Uzo's method? It's really terrifying.
...Come to think of it, Miss Misa also gradually became a puppet loyal to Usa.
He suddenly thought of the "kind" woman in black who had saved him from danger many times, and also thought of how after the truth was revealed, Miss Misa only obeyed Usa's orders and completely ignored everyone else... The sharp contrast between the two made Okiya Subaru feel like his heart was pierced by an ice cone, and he felt very cold.
He couldn't help but raise his hand to cover his chest: Miss Misa who only lived in his memory...hiss, wait, why does this feeling seem so familiar?
Subaru Okiya was briefly confused, and after a moment, he suddenly understood - that's right! Not long after he became Uzo's subordinate, when he accidentally met Xiao Hei and wanted to adopt this unique black cloud snow cat, it was Uzo who appeared in front of him from the sky.
Then the aloof yet very human-like cat let go of all its reserve, and turned into a dog, rubbing against and meowing at Uzo's feet, like a completely different cat.
...Including this time, this is the second time.
There is no such thing as chance with Uzo. This must be another of his bad tastes... How many lifetimes of bad luck did he have to be assigned to such a terrible boss?
Subaru Okiya: “…” It seems that in the future, whenever I see any good things around me or encounter any good things, I have to think about whether this is another conspiracy of Usa.
- Although now, as Wu Zuo's subordinate, he and this boss with a wide range of interests seem to be in the same camp and will not be harmed innocently. But we must never forget that Wu Zuo is essentially a bad organization cadre who likes to treat people as toys.
You never know, one day Wuzo might suddenly lose interest in his subordinate... or become interested in him, and then his hellish life will begin.
Thinking of these two extremely difficult years, the light in Okiya Subaru's eyes gradually lost its luster, and the ice cream in his hand suddenly no longer smelled good.
…
At the same time.
The innocent boss who was being talked about by the brain monster did not have any intention of harming his subordinate. The famous detective Jiang Xia was concentrating on following the procedures to solve the case.
On the way to the restaurant, everyone looked curiously at the love letter in Jiang Xia's hand.
Conan was so anxious that he wanted to jump. But realizing that he couldn't see the letter even if he jumped, the calm elementary school student had to change his strategy rationally and communicate verbally: "What does it say?"
Jiang Xia glanced at Xiao Songjun and saw that he didn't mind, so he read the contents of the letter:
"Although you have bad luck, you never give in to fate. You are really charming and attractive. In fact, I have always been paying attention to you.
"Can you date me?
"I'll be waiting for you in front of the main entrance here at 1 o'clock the day after tomorrow..." There was a cute map drawn on the paper, with the names of the main streets and buildings marked on it, and a pink heart was drawn at the location of the building.
"——by the girl who has been keeping an eye on you."
Xiao Songjun couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth from the moment he read the first word. By the time Jiang Xia finished reading, he was laughing so hard that his eyes were invisible, and he scratched his head shyly.
Suzuki Sonoko was stunned when she heard the ending: "That's it? On such a large piece of paper, you only wrote such a short love letter?"
Jiang Xia nodded, and seeing that she seemed incredulous, he simply handed the letter over.
Suzuki Sonoko took it and saw that there were only a few short lines on it. Fortunately, there was a map in the middle, so at first glance, the page didn't seem too empty.
