Chapter 1823-1830 [It was you who killed Kurosawa! ] Ask for monthly votes ()
As soon as Jiang Xia pushed open the door, he heard a scream from inside the house. At the same time, a crossbow arrow passed by Toda Takako's head, leaving a splash of blood, and shot straight towards him.
Jiang Xia: “…”
Although he could avoid it, Kurosawa and Ma were still walking behind him. As a qualified detective, even if it was a subconscious reaction, he should not affect innocent people.
Jiang Xia had no choice but to secretly put some clay on his palm and planned to raise his hand to grab it.
However, just as he was about to grab the arrow, Hashimoto Maya next to him reacted incredibly quickly and blurted out, "Be careful!"
Then he pushed Jiang Xia on the shoulder.
A tall and well-trained member of the organization, his strength should not be underestimated. Jiang Xia did not expect that the can of iced black tea would suddenly attack him, and he fell to the side two steps in surprise.
In a flash, the crossbow arrow passed through the gap left by Jiang Xia, and with a puff, it pierced Heize and the horse.
“…”
Kurosawa Hema had a dazed look on his face. He slowly lowered his head and looked at the arrow.
Jiang Xia stood firm, turned around and saw this scene: "..."
Hashimoto Maya kept extending her hand, stunned.
Facing the incredulous gazes of Kurosawa and Ma, he subconsciously took a step back: "I'm not, I didn't, I forgot you were standing right behind me... Kurosawa!!"
Kurosawa Kazuma covered his wound and fell to his knees, while Hashimoto Maya stepped forward and supported him, crying out in pain.
The "Doctor Shinide" who was watching had a complicated look in her eyes: "..." Ever since she saw the smooth stone at the place where Konda Eimi hanged herself, she felt that this "Kurosawa" was going to be unlucky.
But he didn't expect Uzo's little knock to come so quickly.
By the way, the trap that could cause people to slip and break their necks should have been prepared by Kurosawa and Ma last night.
After that, she and Wu Zuo had hardly ever been apart. She was sure that Jiang Xia had not gone to the hanging point to observe, and the crossbow mechanism was set up before they left this morning...
In other words, Usa not only knew that Izuka Taro and Kurosawa Kazuma were planning to deal with him, but he might even have guessed their methods, and took the opportunity to include these two people in his script.
Vermouth silently touched the goose bumps on her arms.
Although she knew from the first two cases where no one died that all of Uzo's methods had traces, she still couldn't help but break out in a thin sweat when she saw this guy's insight, his ability to predict and his terrifyingly powerful action up close.
Vermouth: "..." Those two deserved it. Using the surrounding environment to set up an "accident" to murder a specific target was considered a very smart move among the peripheral members.
It was a pity that they encountered Wuzo, and the methods they relied on happened to be the target's best area...
"Dr. Shinde!"
A voice interrupted the storm in her mind.
Vermouth came back to her senses and lowered her head to see Conan anxiously saying, "He's still alive. Didn't you bring a first aid kit with you when you went to the island? Treat him as soon as possible, there should be hope!"
Vermouth: "..."
So should I save him or not?
Did Uzo want this man to die?
She was a little conflicted in her heart. But no matter what, as long as she wanted to continue using her current identity as a doctor, she had to pretend to save people.
"Doctor Xinchu" seemed to have just recovered from the shock and said seriously: "I'll go get the medicine box!"
She ran away quickly.
And next to her, Maya Hashimoto finally reacted.
He suddenly remembered that he had also studied medicine, so he began to observe the wounds of Kurosawa and Ma and tried first aid - according to his medical knowledge which was half learned by doing, half learned, and half learned by practice, the location where the crossbow arrow hit was not fatal, so Kurosawa and Ma should still be saved.
Hashimoto Maya: "..." But no matter whether this colleague can be saved or not, it seems that I am almost doomed...
He couldn't help but pull at his thick hair in despair.
——Ever since she learned that Taro Izuka died tragically on the way to murder Jiang Xia, Hashimoto Maya's mind was filled with only two life-saving rules: "Don't have the intention to kill" and "Don't have the intention to kill the detective."
People always tend to associate similar things with each other. The two rules kept swinging in his mind and somehow became connected with "Jiang Xia cannot die!"
So just now, when she saw the arrow coming, Hashimoto Maya pushed Jiang Xia away.
After pushing it, he realized that this arrow might also be part of the script. Did he accidentally... change Uzo's script?
However, soon after Kurosawa and Ma were shot, Hashimoto Maya realized that he might not have to wait for Uzo to settle the score, because he would die first: he was the unlucky guy who was on the verge of being killed and was being detained for observation. Now, one of the two members who were responsible for guarding him was dead, and the other was dying, and the latter was directly related to his actions...
It was such a coincidence, no matter how you look at it, he couldn't be separated from it. If his superiors knew about it... would that woman believe that he was innocent?
Hashimoto Maya: “…” Even with Taro Izuka’s brain, he knew this was impossible!
...But, it seems that’s not necessarily the case?
Hashimoto Maya's brain was working rapidly, and she suddenly grasped a glimmer of hope: after hearing that the famous detective had landed on the island, Curacao's attitude seemed to have wavered.
In other words, as a cadre, perhaps she also knew that Uzo loved to compete with Tokyo Holmes when he had nothing to do.
Once these coincidences on the island are mixed with factors related to Uzo, other people will appear very innocent in the eyes of those who know the situation.
Thinking of this, Hashimoto Maya wiped the sweat from her forehead and decided to try her luck and try to save Kurosawa Kazuma.
——Kurosawa Kazuma and Izuka Taro blatantly disobeyed the orders of their superiors and intended to kill the detectives who landed on the island. Their guilt was obviously greater than his own.
Living people are more likely to let things slip than dead people. As long as Kurosawa and Ma are still alive, the blame will not be placed on them.
Thinking of this, Hashimoto Maya suddenly became motivated.
When seeing "Dr. Shinde" running down with a first aid kit and intending to treat Kurosawa Kazuma, Hashimoto Maya raised her hand to stop him: "Leave this to me, you go check on the female student in the restaurant."
——This school doctor was distracted, wandering around, and frightened by a sudden crossbow arrow. He was unreliable. And leaving aside the medical skills, this doctor himself made Hashimoto Maya feel that something was wrong.
Hashimoto Maya: "..." You can't rely on such a person. Your destiny is still in your own hands.
After Hashimoto Maya finished speaking, she thought that Dr. Shinde would refuse, but she didn't expect that after a moment of shock, the other party actually gave him some medicine very quickly.
Then he stood up and left: "Then I'll leave it to you."
