Chapter 1863-1871 [Become Uzo] Ask for monthly ticket (づど)
Naoko Torimaru thought of the first person who died at her hands and sighed silently: "When I came to my senses, my fragile ex-boyfriend had already died at the entrance of my house.
"Of course I thought about turning myself in to the police, but I couldn't accept the thought that my life, which had finally gotten better, would fall back into the mire because of this kind of rubbish.
"So after thinking for a long time, I decided to quietly dispose of the body. But as soon as I dragged it out of the door, I ran into President Inozuka who happened to be looking for me."
Naoko Torimaru had a complicated expression: "When he saw us, I thought everything was over, but who knew that he actually... didn't say anything, didn't blame me, and instead helped me deal with the body."
Hashimoto Maya: "..." I see. For the peripheral members, handling corpses is a common basic job, and the difficulty is like taking out the garbage.
By disposing of a corpse, they can leave behind a subordinate with great potential who will be loyal to them. This is a very good deal for them.
…But there is a problem.
If Naoko Torimaru is Usa, why would he need someone like Jiro Izuka to help him?
Hashimoto Maya suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart and quickly thought in an optimistic way: nine years is enough to change a young man beyond recognition, and it can also make a young genius grow to an unimaginable level.
After this incident, Naoko Torimaru realized that the best way to kill without leaving any trace was to do so, so she began to study the case and write scripts. Then she gradually felt that Jiro Inozuka, the person who introduced her to the profession, was also a threat, so she killed him... Damn it, I can't continue writing this script!
…Is she really not Uzo?
Next to her, Naoko Torimaru finally couldn't help but glance at Maya Hashimoto: "..." From just now, this man has been looking at her with strange eyes. The eyes are unpredictable, ups and downs, so complicated that even she can't understand it. But this is the first time she has seen this person... It's really strange.
There are many weirdos in the world, but Torimaru Naoko didn’t dwell on it for too long. She continued, “President Izuka saved me, and I decided to repay him for the rest of my life by serving him.
"After that, I stopped being a model and became his ghost designer. I designed wedding dresses in his name and helped him... to manage his business, which helped the company grow to its current level. Although this is different from the life path I had imagined before, I did it to repay his kindness, so I just did it quietly."
"But not long ago..." Torimaru Naoko's peaceful face gradually showed some murderous intent that could not be hidden:
"When I passed by the office, I happened to hear President Inozuka talking to Inukai Yosuke. President Inozuka was planning to officially hand over the position of vice president to him.
"It's fine if it's just about the position, but they actually talked about my murder - the president actually told Inukai Yosuke about that. Inukai Yosuke and I have always been at odds with each other, and President Inozuka knew this, but he still handed over my handle!"
"I trust him so much, more than I trust my parents, but in his eyes, I am probably just a useful tool for him to develop Putuo Company. As long as he meets another suitable subordinate, he can throw me away like garbage at any time." Torimaru Naoko sneered, "In this case, I will use the most suitable method for a rubbish like me to get the company that he cares about the most."
…
Although there seemed to be other hidden stories behind the incident, all the parties involved in this case except Naoko Torimaru were wiped out, and the police had no way to continue the investigation.
Fortunately, the case was finally solved.
The police took Naoko Torimaru away, who confessed her crime.
Jiang Xia watched them walk away, then walked to the end of the corridor and glanced down through the window.
The mermaid floated to his shoulder, also looked over there, raised her hand and gestured, reminding him to remember to take his classmates for a walk nearby later: For some reason, the density of murderous aura in this area is much higher than elsewhere.
"It's normal to have a lot of murderous aura, after all..." Jiang Xia pondered, tapping his fingers unconsciously on the windowsill a few times, "But the quality is just so-so, not worth a special trip, you follow and check the situation, if there are ghosts or murderous auras left, bring them back."
As he said that, he picked up the mermaid and threw her out.
Then, amid the curses and slaps from the ghost, he returned to the stairs and continued doing what he was supposed to do.
Just at this moment, a group of reporters who had heard the noise came running up the stairs.
Seeing Jiang Xia, the eyes of the reporters who were already familiar with him lit up and they surrounded him like hungry tigers: "I heard that there was a turn in the case of the design company executives murdering their entire family. Is there someone else who is the real culprit?"
"High-level murder case? Is this the title you gave this case?" Jiang Xia smiled. "If that's the case, the name of this case can be changed - the method used by the real murderer to commit the crime, you must be very interested."
Reporters: “!”
Jiang Xia explained the case in a few words.
Although they were listening to the abridged version, the reporters could not help but admire it. When they came to their senses, they had already come up with a new title: The behind-the-scenes scriptwriter was arrested! ——The seemingly closed-loop case was just a pre-arranged stage play.

Maya Hashimoto glanced at their notebooks, feeling numb, but her brain couldn't help but turn reflexively: "..." Similar, similar... These adjectives can indeed make people easily think of that scary guy.
Oh, it would be great if it were true. It's a pity that Uzo would not be thrown into prison so calmly.
After the reporters left.
Jiang Xia glanced at Hashimoto Maya and said, "What's wrong? Your mood suddenly becomes so bad."
Hashimoto Maya was listless, and suddenly remembered something. He asked Jiang Xia tentatively: "Is this the prey you want to catch?"
"If the standard is to solve this case, then yes." Jiang Xia frowned, "But this kind of carelessness... is still a little short of the standard of the 'mastermind' in my impression."
Isn’t it true... Hashimoto Maya’s mood suddenly became even worse.
But he still tried to put up a polite fight: "Actually, the front desk camera you mentioned is just a bluff, right? I've seen that camera. It's installed at a perfect angle to capture the guest's face, but when taking or returning the key, the guest's hand will be blocked by the back of the front desk. In addition, the key is stored on the same side. During the entire access process, the camera won't capture the key at all."
Jiang Xia glanced at him and said, "You have good observation skills." He really has the potential to be a detective.
