Chapter 1693 1701 [Give a gift to the boss] Ask for monthly tickets ()
Both rumors have a certain degree of credibility. In short, no matter what, the ring should be lying in the police station with Maki Shuli's body, rather than appearing in the hands of an organization member.
Gin suspected that the ring in his hand was fake. If you give a wrong gift, it's better not to give it at all: "You're giving a dead person's things as a souvenir? And I heard that this ring may not be real."
Jiang Xia seemed to know more than him: "The ring that Mu Shuli wore on her return trip was indeed a fake, but she used a real ring when she performed on stage before.
"On the night of the play, there was some chaos because of Kidd's appearance and Ireland's body lying on the street outside. When Mushuli was changing her clothes after the performance, someone took the opportunity to replace the ring she took off with a fake one. Then my cat happened to take the real ring back from the thief. So the one you have in your hand now is the real one."
"As for whether it has been worn by a dead person..." Jiang Xia sneered, imitating Gin's behavior. He happened to have a cigarette at hand, so he could perfectly replicate this sarcastic action and expression. "The most valuable treasures are often passed down for hundreds or thousands of years, and each one has come into contact with countless dead people. The fault is never the treasure, but the former owners who are not worthy of them."
Vodka: "..." Stealing something back from someone who stole it, isn't that still a thief? At most, it sounds more like a chivalrous thief.
But this is not the point. The point is, Uzo's hobby has shifted?
Could it be because the "Magician Under the Moon" by Kaito Kid looks quite cool, and Uzo thinks that mysterious thief who appears and disappears without a trace is very handsome, so he also wants to try his hand in this industry?
Thinking of this, Vodka suddenly had a secret expectation in his heart: If Uzo really fell in love with the career of a phantom thief, would everyone be able to calm down a little?
...But, having said that, when Kidd appeared before, there would usually only be one theft at the scene. But now, the dead began to appear around the crime scene of this thief.
Vodka immediately understood the whole story - when "Jiang Xia" was not so famous, he used the thief to improve his reputation.
At first, Uzo thought stealing was boring, so he was too lazy to write a script nearby and just wanted to get the shots and leave early. But later, as he watched, he gradually became interested and added some cases to Kidd's performance to liven up the fun.
By analogy, even if Wu Zuo really became a phantom thief, there would probably be a lot of murders around him. And before, it was losing lives, and in the future, it would be losing lives and property together... tui! It's worse than now.
…
After Jiang Xia let Ganfanmao take the ring back, he hesitated about what to do with it.
Kidd can now produce magic regularly. If I secretly return the ring to Makiri and let Kidd steal it from her again, it would be troublesome enough, and I would not get that many energy cores, and it would also easily disrupt the progress of the plane incident.
In the end, Jiang Xia stared at this beautiful "Stone of Destiny" from left to right, decided to keep it, and decided to play with it for a few days before returning it.
No matter how beautiful it is, it is just a gem, and Jiang Xia got tired of it soon. He originally planned to find an opportunity to let Ganfanmao throw the ring to the donor, and then take a look at the donor's home to see if there is anything that needs to be investigated.
But before it could be implemented, it was heard that the ring donor was heartbroken and planned to have the gem buried with Makishuri.
“…”
Jiang Xia gave up the idea of returning the ring and decided to give it to the boss. Instead of burying it in the soil to accompany the corpse, it would be better to let it play another role.
——On the surface, this was a thank you gift to the boss for allowing him to go abroad.
Jiang Xia: "..." But in fact, approving to go abroad is just a piece of cake, which is equivalent to doing nothing. The boss should not just accept the gift without doing anything. I hope that after he gets the ring, he will give him an extra small gift as a return gift, such as Hashimoto Maya or something - anyway, in the eyes of the boss, he is just a peripheral tool who is ready to be silenced.
As for Curacao, I asked her for someone last night, but there has been no response so far. It seems that she and Rum behind her can hardly be relied on in this matter, so it is better to find someone else to handle it.
It is indeed difficult to mobilize someone else's confidant. But first of all, that confidant is a member of the organization, and secondly, he is Ireland's subordinate. If the organization asks to transfer people, there is no reason for Hashimoto Maya not to change her boss.
Thinking of this, seeing that Gin was still hesitating, Jiang Xia praised the sapphire again: "Don't you think its name is very meaningful - 'Stone of Destiny'. Our organization secretly controls the fate of countless people, countless countries, and even the entire world. This stone... this gem is the best match. 'That Lord' will definitely like it."
Gin: “…” Only the weak believe in fate.
He wanted to say that, but suddenly remembered that the boss was still listening remotely - he didn't know whether the boss liked the ring or not, and whether he believed in fate. If "that lord" was willing to accept it, and he said that, wouldn't the situation be quite embarrassing?
After a moment, Gin closed the lid of the box and said only, "I'll pass it on later."
After a pause, he warned: "The organization's mission for you is to expand your reputation as a detective and gradually infiltrate the upper class - don't develop those side jobs that are not worthy of being mentioned on the stage, as stolen goods are most likely to leave traces."
"I'm not interested in being a phantom thief. I just happened to meet him and brought him back." Jiang Xia waved his hand. "Okay, I've said what I need to say. Just drop me off near my home."
Vodka came back to his senses, perked up, and said coldly: "The investigation on the plane is not over yet. You must be under our surveillance now."
Jiang Xia was startled: "I don't mind staying with you guys, but I'm very busy this week. How about next week?"
Vodka: “……?”
Jiang Xia counted: "I have an exam on Friday, and there is a banquet on Saturday night. A congressman wants to commend me for the plane incident."
Gin: "It's only Monday." A few days is enough time for the organization to investigate. After all, "Jiang Xia" is a celebrity, and the organization cannot detain him for too long unless they plan to use him again in the future.
Jiang Xia: "But starting from this afternoon, I have to cooperate with them to record a live video broadcast to build momentum - the secretary of that congressman said that there are many detectives, and my special feature is that I am a 'high school student detective', so I have to go to school to film my daily life.
"In addition, if I have time, I will go to the detective agency and ask a few clients to share their thoughts on me, that is, to praise me a few times, so that there will be enough momentum when the awards are given out later."
Vodka: "..." Your daily life? What does your daily life have to do with school? You haven't been to school many times.
