Chapter 1699 1707 [Bourbon, what are you doing?]
Jiang Xia: “…” In his daily life, school seems to appear very rarely. This fake cat should be reciting the lines given by the program team according to his conscience.
But it's not a big problem, just pretend to be a normal student and go for a walk. With his reputation given for free, I don't think the principal or teacher will come out to drive him away.
He thought for a moment and said, "Then let's come here first."
Jiang Xia left the camera and returned with two cats a short while later: "My basic business is to find lost pets. I usually have a group of reliable assistants to help me, and my efficiency is very high. If you need anything in this regard, you can contact the Amuro Detective Agency at any time."
Speaking of the office, he couldn't help but glance at the fake cat with a round head next to him.
Fake cat: “…”
It tilted its head to the side uncomfortably, pretending to greet passers-by, as if it didn't notice Jiang Xia's gaze.
Jinpei Matsuda floated to the shoulder of the fake cat, peered into the headgear to take a look at its face, then came out and stared at the cat, somewhat puzzled: Why did its old classmate come here to be a mascot?
Yoko Kinoshita had no idea what the ghosts were doing.
When she heard Jiang Xia introduce his detective agency, she smiled: This little detective is still so dedicated - fortunately, she had guessed it long ago and asked someone to put the agency's contact information on the top of the public screen in advance. Of course, this is only one of the top ones. The news at the top, which is emphasized in bold, is still the upcoming commendation meeting for Councillor Takata.
After the live broadcast started, the first part was the customs and culture of Beika Town, which is also where Jiang Xia grew up, in every sense of the word.
It was a bit boring to just watch the detective show, so the camera quickly turned to the "mascot" in a doll costume, and he gave a brief introduction to the neighborhood.
…
While the mascot was promoting the famous store in Beika-cho, Jiang Xia slipped out of the camera and whispered to Kinoshita Yoko: "What's going on with that big cat?"
Kinoshita Yoko looked back at the giant cat doll, pulled Jiang Xia a little further away, and whispered: "The male host originally scheduled was a senior host of our company. But he accidentally ate allergens during lunch and was rushed to the hospital. Although it's not serious, he is in no condition to continue the live broadcast today, so we can only temporarily replace him.
"Just now, another male artist from our company, Yuya Miyazaka, happened to pass by and recommended himself. He does have experience as a host, but his character seems to be a bit problematic - I heard that he had a good momentum in the past, but because of drunken trouble and using dishonorable means to compete for roles, his popularity has dropped sharply. Although there are signs of a comeback recently, this program is related to politicians, and the production team really dare not use him, so they can only continue to replace him.
"Just at this time, the owner of the cafe heard that we were short of a host, so he enthusiastically recommended an employee and also provided the doll costume and voice changer they used for their store celebration - this is the mascot who never showed up."
Jiang Xia seemed to be thinking about something. He guessed that Toru Amuro had heard about the assassination of a congressman and wanted to come over to see if he could get some information. However, his detective nature kicked in and he encountered a scene where male artists were secretly competing for work, so he reluctantly became the oriole.
Anyway, with someone familiar nearby, Jiang Xia was very satisfied with the live broadcast: "So from now on, Mr. Cat will be the host?"
Kinoshita Yoko shook her head. "The originally scheduled host's allergy wasn't too serious. The company wanted to let him go on stage once he got a little better, which could be tomorrow at the earliest. That's why they didn't use any other male hosts, but asked this mascot to take over temporarily. Changing the host midway would make some viewers uncomfortable, but that's fine for a cat doll. It just so happens that our filming today includes Beika Town, so it's a good idea to let this representative of the neighborhood participate."
"So that's how it is." Jiang Xia sighed inwardly, feeling a little regretful.
…
Toru Amuro standing next to him had no idea of his subordinates' feelings and was still working inside a cat doll.
"This cafe is a century-old shop. Some of the decorations from that time are still preserved in the shop, and the taste of the coffee is also a secret recipe. Although some crimes have happened nearby, many customers still come here just to drink the coffee. There are many similar shops in Beika Town."
Jiang Xia: “…” Boss, is there something wrong with your introduction?
He looked at the cafe manager who was smiling next to the cat doll, but found that the owner of the cafe didn't mind at all - perhaps he felt that the fact that "there are many cases in Beika Town" was well known, and instead of trying to cover up the truth, it would be better to use the fact that "even if it is unlucky, there are still customers coming" to emphasize how attractive their store is.
The streets in the footage are clean, quiet and peaceful, and it is indeed hard to associate them with a murder case.
In the peaceful and pleasant atmosphere, the cat doll pushed open the door with intricate and exquisite workmanship.
Before I took the cameraman in, suddenly, there was a loud bang of hammering on the table in the store.
Then a loud voice rang out: "Let me apologize? Dream on! Why should I apologize? I didn't do anything wrong!"
Another person was also roaring, his voice no less than his: "Why are you playing dumb? Don't you know whether you are right or wrong?"
"I did that all for work! Don't pretend to be a righteous person in front of me, it's disgusting, you hypocrite!"
"Who are you scolding? This is the last time I'm warning you. Don't regret it if you don't listen!"
"I'm scolding you! You're making so much noise, shut up now!"
“…”
"……" Amuro Toru was hit head-on by the two loud quarreling voices. He adjusted the head of the doll that almost fell to the ground, and the lines he had prepared were stuck.
He couldn't help but look back at Jiang Xia: Beihua Town was indeed quiet and peaceful most of the time... as long as there was no employee like him with a strong physique passing by.
Toru Amuro: “…” But fortunately, it was just a quarrel. He thought it was another murder case.
The smile on the store manager's face almost collapsed, and he hurried over: "You two, let's talk."
There are many regular customers sitting in the store.
Seeing this, the female office worker at another table stirred her coffee in silence: "These two people quarrel every day, and there is no peace at all. It's been a year, and there is still no result."
She was a colleague of the quarrelers, but she didn't sit with the two men.
As she spoke, she glared at her two embarrassing colleagues. When she looked up, she suddenly saw Jiang Xia walking in from the door, and then the high school student began to look at her colleagues intently.
"Jiang Xia?" The female white-collar worker was stunned.
She is a reporter for Nichimi TV. Although she does not do variety shows, she has some impression of related programs.
Looking behind Jiang Xia, he saw someone carrying a camera, and it seemed like he was broadcasting a live broadcast.
