Chapter 1769 1776 [The Popular Uzo]
Conan sighed: "The secretary must have some secrets... I'll go back to the venue and take a look. I'll leave this to you!" With that, he ran away.
After all, Jiang Xia is a famous detective and an adult. It would be more convenient for him to communicate with the staff in the shopping mall and borrow surveillance.
So he didn't follow Conan, but instead planned to look for that little braid.
Seeing that he was not motivated, Curacao was secretly alert: "Who else do you want to kill?"
According to the speed of "Famous Detective Jiang Xia", under normal circumstances, everyone should be gathered together to prepare to solve the case - even she had vaguely guessed the murderer's method, so it was impossible for the person who wrote the case not to understand it.
Curacao: "..." According to experience, there is usually only one reason why Jiang Xia is so racked by thought: the murder case is not over yet.
This is probably not a single ordinary murder case, and it will require the blood sacrifice of others to end it.
"You know the process of murder cases very well." Jiang Xia praised her, but did not answer directly. Instead, he asked, "Why do you ask this? Is there anyone you know among the participants of the banquet? Can you tell me who cannot be killed?"
Curacao said stiffly, "No."
Actually, yes.
...Fortunately, the only consolation is that Uzo values talents. In a homicide case, not too many people die suddenly. Single digits is already the limit.
Therefore, if he was not told, then at most there would be no more than three casualties among the remaining people - with so many people in and outside the banquet hall, the possibility of killing members of the organization was very low.
But if he told him, it would be equivalent to telling Wu Zuo that those people had special identities. Even if Wu Zuo didn't take action immediately, he would definitely keep thinking about it secretly.
Many of the members of these political and business organizations joined later. Their original jobs were in politics or business. They did not have the skills of Irish Bourbon. If Uzo just went over and said hello, their people might be gone.
Whether Uzo, a potential stock with some psychological problems, will be held accountable at that time is yet to be determined. As a normal cadre who leaked the information, I will definitely be in trouble.
Jiang Xia seemed dissatisfied with her answer and sighed: "You are quite tight-lipped."
Curacao deadpanned, "Thank you for the compliment."
I thought the conversation was over. However, after walking two steps in silence, Jiang Xia suddenly spoke again: "I think you are quite suitable to be an assistant."
"..." Curacao had been avoiding eye contact with him, so as not to arouse his unnecessary interest. But at this moment, she couldn't help but suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Xia, and she felt the hairs on her body stand up.
Thinking of Hashimoto Mayana's foolish appearance when she was caught in a plane accident and then thrown into the air by the crowd in front of countless cameras, she thought for a moment and said cautiously, "As someone who has just been promoted to a cadre, you already have a lot of people under your command."
Jiang Xia: "If you are willing to come, they can..."
Curacao: “No.”
"..." Jiang Xia, "You answered too quickly. I think you should think carefully about this matter that concerns your future and the rest of your life."
Curacao thought about it for a few seconds and said again: "I don't want to."
Jiang Xia: “…”
He turned his head to look at Curacao, and suddenly realized that although this second-in-command confidant seemed to ignore him, as long as he spoke to her, she would definitely respond.
...quite polite, very different from those who pretend not to hear.
He said with emotion: "I admire you more and more."
"Thank you very much."
"If you don't want to be a subordinate, you can be a partner."
"no thanks."
Jiang Xia: “…” Poking and moving, it’s really fun.
…
After a casual search in the shopping mall, Jiang Xia didn't find the little braid, so he returned to the banquet hall.
In the banquet hall, President Ishimoto, whose arm was injured, was arguing with the police: "I have said everything I need to say, you should let me go!"
He shook his hanging arm and said, "You'd better understand that I am the victim and should not be the target of your suspicion!"
Inspector Megure smiled and said, "Of course we know it wasn't you who did it, but the brutal killer hasn't been caught yet. If you go to the hospital now, aren't you afraid of being attacked by him? How about this? I'll send a police car over and take you to the police hospital. We'll protect you closely. How about that?"
That sounds very thoughtful and appropriate.
But President Ishimoto snorted coldly: "With your efficiency in solving cases and your personal protection, if I really leave everything to you, I'm afraid that by the time my company goes bankrupt, you still haven't caught the murderer."
The female secretary also stepped forward and said, "The president doesn't like dealing with the police. He has his own familiar hospital. Besides, it is the president's freedom to decide whether to accept police protection. You have no right to interfere, let alone send people to forcibly protect him."
Jiang Xia heard the noise and walked over here.
Curacao followed him and glanced at the female secretary: "..." Working hard to free the employer from police protection seemed like something the murderer would love to do.
Combined with what we just saw, this secretary really looked like he was very secretive.
Curacao quickly assessed this person: She has the potential to become a murderer or a victim, so it seems that he should be more cautious about her recently. However, the secretary's figure and muscles did not look like those of a specially trained person. Moreover, her dress was very slim, and it could be seen that she did not hide a gun.
After a simple consideration, Curacao gave her a lower risk rating in his mind: if this female secretary wanted to assassinate her, the success rate would be very low. He just needed to be more careful and not drink water that had been handled by this person.
She then relaxed a little and looked at other people.
Curacao looked away, but the secretary suddenly turned towards him.
But she was not looking at Curacao, but her gaze was on Jiang Xia.
While looking at the young and promising detective, she said to Inspector Megure: "Even if you really want to send someone to protect us, you should let us choose ourselves - in fact, we have already made an appointment with the detective."
President Ishimoto glanced at Jiang Xia and nodded: "Although this guy was of no use in the shooting incident just now, he has just received the commission and has not yet figured out the situation. This cannot be entirely blamed on him. I think Jiang Xia is at least more reliable than you police officers, so let him protect me closely... Hmm? What's that look in your eyes?"
He suddenly looked at Curacao behind Jiang Xia and frowned.
Curacao forced a smile: "I'm sorry, it's just that I also wanted to ask Mr. Jiang Xia to protect me before, so I was a little surprised to hear you say that suddenly."
