Chapter 1881 1889 [Curaçao's heart is worthy of death] Ask for monthly votes ()
Maya Hashimoto hesitated for a moment, reached out to turn off the light, and the room immediately returned to its original state, not so bloody and scary anymore.
He breathed a sigh of relief silently, with a subtle feeling that the shooting of a horror movie was over and everything was returning to normal.
And behind him.
Izuka Saburo was still trying to persuade Kurosawa Hema: "We can't leave now. What if we leave now and get spotted by that police officer? That woman looks very difficult to talk to. Besides, we're already here. Our experience just now proves that the police here are very responsible. If we change our hiding place hastily, our situation will only become more dangerous."
Kurosawa Hema stared at the room and frowned: "But this place looks too unlucky..."
"He gave us this room, but we don't have to live here." Izuka Saburo was quite optimistic. "At worst, we can find someone to move to another room. And the more gloomy a place looks, the safer it is. Except for those perverts who kill people like drinking water, other people will be more or less nervous and uneasy when committing crimes. They will definitely choose a place that they are more familiar with, or at least a place that seems to make them feel at ease - but look at this room."
He turned on the light, and blood-red light poured down instantly: "It can scare away ghosts, let alone a few murderers!"
Kurosawa Kazuma: “…” It seems to make sense?
Hashimoto Maya thought something was wrong and turned back from the window: "Where do you get all these theories?"
Izuka Saburo scratched his head. "I studied criminal psychology in college. Although I later found the coursework too busy and tried to switch to a more relaxed major after just a few days of classes, it would be a waste to throw away those textbooks. I put them in the toilet and picked them up to flip through a few pages when I was free... I didn't expect that they would come in handy at a time like this."
Hashimoto Maya; “…” Criminal psychology?
Even if he changed his major later, these elements sound like they are very much liked by Uzo... Hiss, what is Curacao thinking? Why does he keep stuffing these people around him!
Is that woman really seriously isolating and guarding herself? Why does it seem like she is delivering food to Uzo under the guise of a mission?
A sense of solemnity and suspicion arose in Hashimoto Maya's heart, and she began to doubt Curacao's position and intentions.
And there is this half-baked guy, Saburo Izuka, who actually wants to compete with Uzo with toilet reading... Are his messy analyses really reliable?
Maya Hashimoto couldn't help but look solemn.
But soon he shook his head again, trying hard to get these things out of his mind.
——I finally escaped from the annoying Tokyo and came to the distant Hokkaido. What the hell am I thinking about on such a beautiful day?
We should seize the time to enjoy this fresh, clean air without any trace of ouzo.
Thinking of this, Maya Hashimoto opened the window, stretched lazily somewhat deliberately, and took a deep breath of the wind and snow outside.
Then his eyes suddenly fell on the courtyard of the hotel.
——From afar, five figures, four tall and one short, jumped out of the car. Four of them were extremely familiar to him. The terrifying combination was almost engraved in his DNA.
“Ahem…!!”
Maya Hashimoto was choked by the cold wind, then she quickly pulled back the window and closed it, quickly drew the curtains, and instinctively leaned against the wall beside the window.
The other two were shocked: "What happened?!"
Hashimoto Maya: “…Nothing.”
His face was calm, and he didn't want to shake the morale of the troops.
But it was like a tsunami rising in my heart: Why, why did these people come again? !
Although Hashimoto Maya knew rationally that Jiang Xia was just a very sharp and righteous detective, and even helped him survive from Uzo, and also shared the hardships with everyone on the plane and made a significant contribution to the safe landing of the plane...
But emotionally, I don’t know why, the moment I saw Jiang Xia just now, Hashimoto Maya’s head buzzed, and she felt as if she saw a line of bloody subtitles above the head of this famous detective.
——The messenger of death.
…
Ten minutes ago.
When Jiang Xia and the others came out of the station, light snow was already falling in Hokkaido.
Fortunately, they had checked the weather forecast in advance and packed their winter clothes. They took a taxi and headed to the Aphrodite Theater with great anticipation.
Unexpectedly, halfway through the journey, the ground was frozen and a car that was driving a little faster failed to brake and turned half a circle in a very dangerous way, and stopped next to their car with a squeak.
Everyone in the two cars was startled, and the drivers got out to check the condition of the vehicles. When the driver of the car next to him got out, Jiang Xia saw the man clearly and his eyes lit up: "Officer Sato?"
One more wonderful acquaintance.
…
Fortunately, the two cars did not actually collide.
After dealing with the scene, Jiang Xia and the others switched to Sato Miwako's car - because they found that their destinations were the same.
Miwako Sato looked at the high school students and a bonus elementary school student in the rearview mirror: "You won the special prize with free board and lodging? Another special prize? Does the last name 'Maori' give you any bonus for the lottery? I heard that your father, Mr. Maori Kogoro, used to win every time in the lottery - haha, but his luck is a little worse than yours. Every time he draws a bad lot, he is always forced to win the lottery."
Jiang Xia: “…” No, it’s completely hereditary in this respect - every time the bomber randomly chooses someone to plant the bomb, Xiaolan is always the one who appears next to the bomb.
However, it seems that this kind of topic should not be discussed during a pleasant trip.
Jiang Xia looked at Sato Miwako and asked another question: "Are you also traveling in Hokkaido?"
Miwako Sato: "I guess so. I happen to be on vacation these two days."
"Is it?" Conan's ears twitched, and he keenly caught the key words.
Miwako Sato sighed, "Actually, there is a classmate of mine from middle school in the Aphrodite Troupe. Their troupe recently received a threatening letter, and my classmate seems to be very worried about it, so she wants me to come and help calm the situation."
"Threat letter?!"
The four people in the car couldn't help but repeat the word at the same time, each with a different tone.
Jiang Xia quickly expressed his opinion: "It must be very hard to investigate alone, I will go with you."
Conan leaned over from the back seat: "I want to go too!"
Mao Lilan: "..." Do these merchants like to put some problematic places into the prize pool and sell them randomly? She just wants to have a good time...
Suzuki Sonoko was also a little tired when she thought about the recent case, but seeing that Jiang Xia was very excited, she immediately wanted to join in the fun and also bothered Officer Sato: "Take me with you!"
Miwako Sato laughed. "Of course I don't mind having a few more helpers, but you have to be more cautious in your investigation this time. After I decided on the itinerary for Hokkaido, I found out that the leader of the Aphrodite Group had already called the police."
