Chapter 1910 1918 [Jiang Xia also likes the stage]
Jiang Xia thought for a moment and said, "It's not intuitive to just talk about it. Let's go to the stage. They were originally planning to perform the solution to "The Murderer in the Mirror" there tonight, but unfortunately three actors have died and the play can't go on. In that case, we're just sitting there anyway, so why not use the stage to perform the solution to this off-stage case?"
"Serial murders on and off the screen?" The reporters thought it was a good idea. They had a ready-made title. "Let's go!"
Fuwa Narumi's face turned pale: "That's enough! This serial case has been closed, the evidence is irrefutable - if you try to disrupt the case-solving process with your childish detective game, don't blame me for being rude."
As she said this, she waved her hand, wanting her subordinates to clear these idlers out of the hotel.
However, at this moment, with a squeak, a car suddenly braked in the yard.
A tall figure walked out of the car.
The middle-aged man glanced at the crowd and quickly recognized Fuwa Narumi, and walked over. He touched his pocket and took out his police ID, showing it to Fuwa Narumi: "You must be Inspector Fuwa, I am Matsumoto Kiyonaga from the Metropolitan Police Department. From now on, I will be in charge of this case."
Fuwa Mingmei bit the cigarette tightly: "...I told you, this case has been closed. You are late and trying to steal the credit. This is not appropriate."
"Whether the case is over or not is not up to you alone to decide." Matsumoto Kiyonaga put his police officer ID back, "I have obtained permission from Hokkaido. This is an order - from now on, you no longer have the command authority for this case. Please treat yourself as an ordinary passerby."
Fuwa Narumi's face looked extremely ugly.
While the two police inspectors were negotiating.
The door of the car that Matsumoto Kiyonaga had just gotten out of opened again.
A fashionably dressed young woman stepped out of the car, winked quietly at a few high school students standing in front of the hotel, and trotted over.
Suzuki Sonoko recognized her and was a little surprised: "Teacher Matsumoto?"
"Yeah." Sayuri Matsumoto responded with a smile, then looked at Jiang Xia, "I caused you a lot of trouble last time. I hope I can help you this time."
This is their former music teacher. A while ago, this teacher held a wedding, but the groom poisoned the bride. I don't know why, but the groom drank the poison himself.
When everyone was confused, Jiang Xia sorted out the situation, restored the inside story, and finally cleared Matsumoto Sayuri of suspicion.
I thought the matter had come to an end, but I didn't expect that the music teacher would repay me later?
Suzuki Sonoko looked at the policeman whose aura was so strong that it could not be broken. She felt relieved, straightened her back, and breathed more smoothly: "Thank you, teacher, for bringing people to help!"
Sayuri Matsumoto smiled sheepishly: "Not really, it's just that my dad and I were traveling in Hokkaido, and suddenly heard about this, so I stopped by to take a look - I should thank Inspector Megure, if it wasn't for him running around, things definitely wouldn't have gone so smoothly."
Jiang Xia touched his chin: "..." Although Inspector Megure always complains about too many cases, it seems now that he doesn't hate cases that much.
It seems that I can take Conan to visit places where outlaws are active more often in the future, to contribute to the peace of Tokyo and to the performance of Inspector Megure.
…
Anyway, after the local boss was suppressed by the superintendent who came from far away from the Metropolitan Police Department, the case was finally able to proceed normally.
Jiang Xia looked at the hotel manager: "Can the stage be used tonight?"
The manager nodded: "Of course. But the props above are still to be used in "The Murderer in the Mirror". If you want to stage a play, you may have to re-..."
"Let's just use those." Jiang Xia interrupted, "The show we're going to perform later is also 'The Murderer in the Mirror', so it's a perfect match."
"Huh?" A group of actors who were eavesdropping in the corner were stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?"
Jiang Xia looked over and said, "What this means is that you need to perform the scenes in the original script "The Murderer in the Mirror" according to the original plan. You must immerse yourself in the play and bring out the hatred and emotions of the characters in the play. In this way, the murderer will naturally emerge."
Fuwa Narumi snorted, "That's just nonsense."
Matsumoto Kiyonaga: "Just do as Jiang Xia said."
Fuwa Narumi: "..."
…
The play went on as the detective wished.
Saburo Izuka and Maya Hashimoto were huddled in a corner. One of the three men who survived was missing, and the two of them looked lonely together.
Izuka Saburo held a photo of Fumizuki Hualian in his hand, glanced at the troupe that lacked a female lead, and was filled with sorrow: "My Miss Hualian..."
Hashimoto Maya glanced at him and moved away with disgust: "..." Don't you have a reliable accomplice?
But Izuka Saburo was still muttering: "Can't Jiang Xia just solve the case directly? Why does he have to drag everyone on stage to act and poke people's scars. Oh, my little Hualien... huh?"
He suddenly felt something and turned his head, only to see Hashimoto Maya staring at him as if she had seen a ghost.
Izuka Saburo: “…What, what happened?”
After looking at each other for a while, he always felt that Hashimoto Maya's state was familiar.
After racking his brains for a while, Izuka Saburo remembered: "...Wait, you don't think Jiang Xia is that person just because of this."
Hashimoto Maya answered immediately: "Impossible!"
However, the faster he answered, the more Izuka Saburo felt that he was thinking in this direction.
When he thought of the possibility that "Jiang Xia is Usa", Saburo Izuka silently got goosebumps all over his body.
He shook his head to get rid of the terrible idea, and rarely agreed with Hashimoto Maya's judgment. At the same time, he couldn't help but muttered: "One moment you suspect Torimaru Naoko, the next moment you suspect Jiang Xia, and the next moment you will suspect me - you are too deeply influenced by him."
Hashimoto Maya: "..." Suspect you? Don't let Uzo hear this, or he'll think you're saying something bad about him behind his back.
Izuka Saburo didn't know that he was being scolded in his heart. He saw Hashimoto Maya's complicated expression, sighed, and whispered: "Don't guess, I have seen that Dong...that adult - there is no doubt about it, it is definitely him. That kind of terrible oppressive feeling is not something that anyone can imitate."
This successfully diverted Maya Hashimoto's attention from the "Guess Who is Uzo" game.
As if a basin of ice water was poured over him, he realized a terrible fact - suppose, suppose Izuka Saburo did not lie, then he... wouldn't he be in the same space with Usa at this moment?
So what does that demon want to do? Can't he just say what he wants?
Hashimoto Maya: “…” However, if you think about it carefully, what level is Inozuka Saburo? Why would Usa make a special trip to see him?
Even if they really met, how could Inozuka tell the real Uzo from the fake?
Perhaps the so-called man with sunglasses and curly hair is just a trick. Uzo is using this complicated method to cover up the truth behind it.
As for the truth...
Compared to any young and beautiful wedding dress model, it is obviously the man with sunglasses, curly hair and black clothes who fits the image of the legendary "Uzo" better.
——So we need to use reverse thinking to deal with this kind of reverse thinking. There is only one truth, and the model is the real Uzo.
Izuka Saburo: "...Look at your expression right now. Can you really deceive yourself with these words?"
Hashimoto Maya: “…”
