Chapter 1803 1810 [The Predestined One of Gin and Vodka] Asking for a monthly ticket (づど)
Jiang Xia approached and handed over his business card with very skilled movements: "I'm Jiang Xia, and I'm currently working as a detective on the side. Judging from your appearance, you probably don't live on the island all the time. If you need to use a detective in the future, remember to contact me at any time."
Kurosawa Kazuma: “…”
Taro Inozuka: "..."
As two experienced criminals who have developed in many fields and have been involved in various crimes, they really don't want to have too much communication with the detective, especially a detective with such a loud reputation and who sounds very observant.
But they all came over with their business cards...
Thinking that they were still following orders to act as island watchers, the two looked at each other, then reluctantly reached into their pockets and took out their business cards.
Although they are members of an organization, they actually have a fixed identity in society. A mature social person always carries a corresponding business card with him to avoid embarrassment in social situations.
So soon, Jiang Xia got what he wanted.
He lowered his head to look at the two business cards of different styles, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes: "..." Is it really called this?
These two people have a special connection with gin and vodka. Gin seems to be called Kurosawa Jin, and vodka often uses a name like "Uozuka Saburo", which sounds like the neighbor brother of Inozuka Taro.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia took the time to take a photo of the two business cards, intending to send them to Gin and Vodka so that they could be appreciated by their destined partners.
Too bad there's no signal here.
After discovering this, the famous detective held his phone and sighed regretfully: "…" Forget it, let's talk about it after we leave the island. By then, there might be some interesting cases that can spice up life. And if these two Kurosawa Kazuma and Izuka Taro are unfortunately involved in the incident, it's just right to talk about them together so that I don't have to post them twice.
Suzuki Sonoko was also one of the few people who paid attention to the people watching the island, but her focus was obviously different from Jiang Xia's.
Suzuki Sonoko looked at the two middle-aged men, a little confused: "I remember my sister said that the island keeper was an elderly man, so she told me not to disturb him and to do it myself... How come they are two young men now?"
Kurosawa Hema said quickly: "The man you are talking about is my father. He has been in poor health recently and returned to Tokyo for surgery, so he asked me to help him look after the island for two days. Izuka is my friend. He usually works as a cook in a small shop and is very good at cooking, so I asked him to come along."
"Cook?" Suzuki Sonoko immediately looked at Izuka Taro with a smile on her face. Although she knew that she might have to cook for herself after arriving on the island, her own cooking would never be as delicious as that of a professional chef. Now that a young and strong chef has come to her doorstep, she will of course take advantage of the meal. "Then I'll leave the meals for the next few days to you? We can help out."
Taro Inozuka: "..."
Kurosawa Kazuma: "..." This is different from what my father said before, "You don't have to do anything, just show me the way." But the superior told them to be good islanders...
He had no choice but to keep smiling and patted his reluctant companion: "Don't worry, leave it to us. We will make sure the guests feel at home!"
…
Although they were reluctant at first, there were too many young and beautiful high school girls and college girls in the group going to the island. Compared with the days and nights before when they could only look at each other and Hashimoto Maya, now their eyes seemed to be cleansed and they felt much more comfortable.
Taro Izuka and Kazuma Kurosawa's attitude became a little better, and they led them through the jungle like real island keeper's and headed for the building in the middle of the island.
Suzuki Sonoko felt the sea breeze and looked at the dense trees on both sides: "This place is even more deserted than I imagined. It's like an undeveloped island."
Izuka Taro smiled and said, "There are no residents here. I heard that apart from regular maintenance, there is no other contact with the outside world. It is normal that it is a bit deserted. But you can't say that it is undeveloped. If you walk a little further in, you can see the buildings on the island."
…
Walking along the path, it didn't take long before we saw some clustered buildings in front of us.
The houses here are a bit old-fashioned, but with red walls on a white background, delicate patterns carved on the railings, and gorgeous decorations. After seeing it, Suzuki Sonoko finally understood why her sister liked this island - this style is really good for taking promotional photos.
"A theater with a Western-style house?" The dark-faced guy scratched the back of his head. "The style is weird and spooky. The play you are going to stage is not a horror movie, is it?"
Jiang Xia thought carefully: "This is a good suggestion."
The mermaid seemed to like this place very much, and she floated around as soon as she arrived. Suddenly, she heard Jiang Xia say this, and she quietly tidied up her hair and the shells on her body, and floated in front of Jiang Xia, passing by gracefully.
Mao Lilan knew nothing about the mermaids that were swaying around. She was most afraid of ghosts. She shuddered at what Xiao Hei Lian and Jiang Xia were talking about: "How can you use such a beautiful house to shoot a ghost movie! Let's choose some normal dramas."
A group of people walked into the hall while chatting.
This seems to have been a hotel before, but now it has been converted into a residential building for guests who come to the island. There are also many decorations inside, all in modern European style, which is very suitable for the occasion and matches the island's biggest selling point, the "Centennial Opera House".
A group of students looked around with great interest, trying to determine whether they were authentic or fake.
Jiang Xia's eyes also fell on these things, but he quickly moved away and looked at a corner of the hall from a distance.
He had observed this when he came here. There were several buildings on the island, clustered together in an orderly manner.
And among them, in the room farthest from the hotel...
It actually seems to have a scent of iced black tea?
Jiang Xia touched his chin, and his gaze paused slightly on Kurosawa Kazuma and Izuka Taro, as if he understood something.
Then he winked at the ghost floating beside him, and the Mist Tengu, who was most often on field trips, immediately understood and flew towards the faint scent of clear iced black tea.
…
In the house in the distance.
Maya Hashimoto hid behind the curtains, holding the telescope that she had stolen from Kurosawa Kazuma, and looked back at the group of tourists who had just come to the island.
The most eye-catching ones were indeed Jiang Xia and his group. In addition to the four of them, there were some young people of similar age who also looked like students. They were completely unfamiliar faces to Hashimoto Maya.
The atmosphere among the group was harmonious, as if this was just a relaxing outing. Even Kurosawa Kazuma and Izuka Taro, who were very anxious before leaving the group, seemed to have become much more calm after joining their group.
"Strange, this is not what I expected." Hashimoto Maya was a little confused. "Could it be the calm before the storm as the legend says?"
