Chapter 1885 1893 [The Revenge between Jiangxia and Wuzo]
Hashimoto Maya was looking at the direction where Jiang Xia and the others had left, deep in thought, when suddenly she saw Izuka Saburo approaching her, and he asked mysteriously, "Do you think so too?"
“?!” Maya Hashimoto looked at this fool in shock. He seemed so stupid on the surface, could it be that this guy could read minds?
You really can't judge a person by appearance...
Thinking of this, his opinion of Izuka Saburo changed a little and nodded.
"Okay!" Having a supporter, Izuka Saburo immediately rolled up his sleeves and was full of energy. "I also think we should ask Jiang Xia to switch rooms. This red room full of puzzles must be very attractive to detectives. If it doesn't work, we can pretend to be scared and ask him for help. How can a righteous high school detective refuse a poor and helpless ordinary citizen?"
"?" Hashimoto Maya was stunned: Things seem to be different from what I thought?
Seeing that Izuka Saburo was ready to go out, he quickly reached out and pulled him back: "Change rooms? You are still asleep, right? This sounds too suspicious. Besides, didn't we just figure it out? This red room is just where someone died. There's nothing to be afraid of."
Of course, this is just the surface statement, and the deeper reasons cannot be revealed: Jiang Xia, a person who lives in Tokyo, suddenly ran all the way to Hokkaido. Who knows whether this abnormal event is caused by Uzo's script behind the scenes.
What if Wuzo happily planned for a long time and was ready to make a big move, but just before the show started, he found out that his most satisfied leading actor was replaced by a bunch of rubbish...
Just thinking about the consequences, Maya Hashimoto felt the hairs on her body stand up: at that time, a simple death would probably become a luxury. Maybe Uzo would let them play the leading roles and have fun, experience all the horrors of the world, and finally go to the underworld to reincarnate with their eyes open.
Hashimoto Maya: "..." No, wait, isn't Usa the same Naoko Torimaru? Now that she was defeated by Jiang Xia, she was on the run and recuperating. She should be shrinking her neck and not daring to cause trouble... What on earth is she afraid of?
Saburo Izuka didn't notice his companion's complicated thoughts. He thought that Hashimoto Maya really had the same idea as him, but it turned out not to be the case.
He had no choice but to explain: "Haven't you noticed that Jiang Xia always appears at the crime scene, but he survives unscathed every time - on the other hand, his room must be safe! After all, it is safer than our special red light room."
Hashimoto Maya came to her senses: "..." Unexpectedly, Izuka Saburo actually thought the same thing as her, but the conclusions they came to were different.
...But no matter what, Izuka Saburo's decision must be rejected! Although this guy has been slacking off and eating melons everywhere and heard some rumors about Uzo, he is, after all, just an outside member who is not well-informed and does not know what it means to disrupt Uzo's script at will.
Putting aside the question of whether Naoko Torimaru would act on impulse, to be on the safe side, Maya Hashimoto planned to find an excuse to stop Saburo Izuka.
But before he could think it through, Kurosawa and Ma next to him spoke first.
He looked at Izuka Saburo with an expression that looked like he was looking at an idiot: "You only know that he survived every time, but you don't know how he survived - in fact, I also felt that it was too coincidental to meet him twice in a row, so I searched for information about Jiang Xia."
Then the most recent ones popped up first - for example, something about getting on a plane and experiencing the encyclopedia of air crashes; another example about going into a warehouse to save a cat and the warehouse suddenly exploded... I heard that there was another time when they went to an underwater restaurant, but the restaurant was destroyed by a bomber, and Jiang Xia forced Dadi to float up from the bottom of the sea with his classmates.
Besides, let's not talk about other things, just talk about these few times: Not long ago, on that deserted island, if Hashimoto Maya hadn't pushed Jiang Xia for no reason, then the flying crossbow arrow would not have pierced him, Kurosawa Hema, but would have hit Jiang Xia. In addition, there was the murderous intention of himself, Taro, and Izuka Jiro towards Jiang Xia. Although the two Izukas died before they could do anything, causing Kurosawa Hema to have a bad start... But that kind of threat was real.
After listening to him, Izuka Saburo was stunned for a moment: "..." He is just a high school student, but his life is so eventful?
Is this guy really unlucky, so unlucky that even drinking cold water will cause his teeth to ache, or has he made a big enemy with "that thing" in the organization and is being targeted?
In any case, it seems that Jiang Xia’s room is not suitable for living in - maybe there is some killer trick hidden inside that will catch people off guard.
"I see. In that case, maybe this weird-looking house of ours is actually just a cover for murdering Jiang Xia - just like in detective dramas there is always a character who looks like the murderer in every way, but in the end that character turns out to be innocent. So according to this line of thought, our house is also the safest?"
The three of them looked at each other for a moment, and two of them felt a little more at ease.
Hashimoto Maya was even more conflicted: Should she join the detective team?
At this moment, a panicked voice came from the half-open door: "Oh no, backstage, backstage...!"
It seems like something happened backstage.
Three people: "...What should we do?"
However, before they could figure out what attitude to take towards Jiang Xia and his group, whether to approach or stay away, at this moment, the footsteps of the person who brought the news were getting closer and closer, and finally stopped at their door.
The informant seemed to have heard that there were three temporary workers living in Room 315, so he banged on the half-closed door and said, "Don't be lazy, come and help!"
“…”
Well, don’t worry anymore, someone has chosen for them.
…
On the other side, after hearing those voices, Jiang Xia and the others put down their luggage, and following the source of the commotion, they followed the panicked crew members downstairs to the prop room of the crew.
As soon as I entered the room, I heard an old, sharp voice - Bandai Lingjiang, who had just reprimanded Wen Yue Karen, the mainstay of the troupe, was now shouting with a voice a hundred times more angry than before: "Who did it? Who did it?! The performance is about to start tonight, do you really want to destroy our troupe?!"
Jiang Xia walked to the door, listened to the roar, and tentatively poked his head out of the door.
Seeing that Bandai Suzue was busy checking the broken props and had no time to drive away outsiders like them, he sneaked into the house to check the situation.
The prop room was in a mess at this time: various performance costumes were cut into tatters, props were broken, flower pots were pushed to the ground, and even the mirrors on the wall were not spared and were smashed into pieces, making it difficult for the actors to put on makeup.
