Chapter 1637 1645 [The commission is to investigate Uzo]
Ireland nodded. They had just met last night. Although he was dressed as a theater security guard and had a different disguise, Jiang Xia would definitely recognize him.
So Ireland did not hide anything, but only said part of the truth and part of the lies: "I received an anonymous letter asking me to go to that theater. Although I knew it was a fraud, I couldn't stand it anymore because I had been being plotted against recently, so I went to see it. Who knew I was tricked again."
Jiang Xia touched his chin and looked at him hesitantly: "I did hear that in some recent cases, there are always some passers-by who were almost hit. Could it be you?"
"..." Although he was prepared to let the detective intervene as a "victim", when someone suddenly mentioned this matter to him, Ireland was filled with unspeakable anger and shame.
"It's me." He took a deep breath and tried his best to stay calm. "If you find someone, please inform me first rather than the police. This is very important to me."
Jiang Xia seemed to have principles: "Sorry, if the other party is really a criminal, I will choose to notify the police first. This is good for you and society."
“…” Ireland frowned and gave him a look, very dissatisfied with this response - if the police were really involved, Uzo would certainly be in trouble, but the situation would also be unfavorable to him as a cadre.
But on second thought, detectives usually have to wait until they have collected a complete chain of evidence before informing the police, and it is impossible for Uzo to leave behind such a thing as a "chain of evidence".
In other words, even if Jiang Xia found any clues, he would eventually have to come to me.
After figuring this out, Ireland nodded calmly, "Of course. But I have a feeling that the guy is a very scary murderer. So during the commission process, please be sure not to leak this information to anyone, otherwise it will definitely put them in danger."
Before contacting Jiang Xia, Ireland had inquired about the situation from all sides - Jiang Xia had a good reputation as a private detective. This young detective had never leaked secrets and handled the commissions very efficiently. It was said that except for those clients who were not convenient to rate him for various reasons, everyone else gave him unanimous praise.
Ireland: "..." Privately contact a tight-lipped private detective under a false identity, so as not to lead to the disclosure of secrets.
As for whether Jiang Xia is related to Wu Zuo...
Ireland had already imagined that if these two people were really in collusion, then for him, Jiang Xia, a detective with clear whereabouts, would be a good breakthrough point compared to the elusive Uzo.
On the other hand, if Jiang Xia did not know Wu Zo, and the overlapping itineraries between him and Wu Zo were just Wu Zo's unilateral malicious entanglement, then Jiang Xia would be a good ally.
Ireland: "..." He secretly gave the intelligence he knew to Jiang Xia, and then asked Jiang Xia to deal with Wu Zuo. When Wu Zuo was pushed to a certain extent, Ireland believed that if he were him, he would never let go of this detective who was targeting him everywhere and knew too much.
It was not an easy task to silence a famous detective, especially since Jiang Xia had already vaguely sensed Wu Zuo's existence. By then, if he made some moves in secret, it would not be difficult to bring Wu Zuo down, and let this detective who knew too much and that annoying colleague perish together.
A wonderful plan quickly took shape in Ireland's mind.
Just as he was thinking about it, the door curtain leading to the cab in front moved - Mu Shuli, who had disappeared somewhere before, lifted the curtain and walked out slowly.
Ireland looked up and saw her, remembering the woman's difficult temper, and didn't want to get into a fight with him for taking her seat in public.
So he stood up and whispered goodbye to Jiang Xia: "Let's talk again when there's a chance."
Jiang Xia nodded: "I remember I gave you my business card, please contact me anytime."
When two people are talking.
Maki Shuli looked over here and found that a strange man had sat in her seat. As expected, she frowned in disgust.
Behind her, Conan was also stunned by the scene. Soon, he looked at Ireland and his eyes became extremely solemn.
——This mini detective was still thinking about catching the thief. Considering that the thief's target was the ring on Makuri's finger, Conan's attention was all on Makuri. When Makuri went to the cab, Conan followed curiously and watched the whole process of kissing her hand.
Conan thought he had seen an interesting gossip, but when he came back to take a look, he was shocked to find that he seemed to have missed something more important.
Conan: "..." Judging from his figure, isn't this the very suspicious fake security guard from last night? He is also on this plane and took the initiative to find Jiang Xia? !
Judging from Jiang Xia's happy expression, the two of them were actually having a good conversation... What did this guy say? Damn it, I shouldn't have gone to the cockpit just now, I should have stayed and eavesdropped!
Conan regretted it so much that he wanted to rush to Jiang Xia immediately and ask him about everything that had just happened while Jiang Xia's memory was still fresh.
However, considering that the suspicious tall fake security guard had not gone far, Conan did not dare to expose himself. He could only clench his fists, forced himself to suppress the questions in his mind, and decided to ask when he was alone.
Conan stayed where he was, brainstorming.
Makuri glared at Ireland who had taken her seat, then looked down at the seat with disgust on her face.
Her assistant hurried over, holding an opened box of chocolates. "I was just wondering if you were feeling unwell because you were hungry - would you like some snacks? This is your favorite brand."
The chocolates are packed in a square box, separated by hard cardboard in the middle, with a total of 16 compartments, and each compartment contains a separate chocolate.
Mu Shuli snorted, picked up a piece and threw it into his mouth.
There were still a lot of chocolates left, and everyone who saw one could get a share. The assistant also distributed some to the people nearby.
Jiang Xia saw the box being handed to him, so he took a piece.
The younger brother and Ireland, who had not walked far, were also asked, but both chose to refuse: as members of an organization that lives on the edge of death, they did not have the habit of eating food outside, especially food handed to them by strangers, not to mention that this area was likely under the influence of Uzo.
The box was quickly delivered to Haibara Ai who was hiding in the corner.
The elementary school student, who was trying hard to reduce his presence, was wearing a rabbit hood and waved his hand, about to refuse.
At this moment, in the corridor, Mu Shuli suddenly gasped like a bellows, then she raised her hands suddenly, pinched her throat, and fell to the ground twitching.
“?!”
In the quiet cabin, this kind of noise was too shocking. Everyone around was stunned, and suddenly raised their heads and looked in the direction of the sound.
