Chapter 1965 1973 [Surrounded by Uzo Forces]
Hashimoto Maya: “…” Threat, naked threat!
…but it works.
Hashimoto Maya: "..." Isn't it okay for me to work hard? Don't show me these anymore!
…
Of course, he was not the only one who worked hard. After seeing the corpse downstairs, Jiang Xia turned around and rushed downstairs.
Conan and Kogoro Mouri's detective attributes allow them to run faster than Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia hesitated for a moment, then moved sideways in the narrow corridor, and out of respect for the elderly and care for the young, let his two companions go down first, so that everyone would not be squeezed together and accidentally fall.
Behind him, Hashimoto Maya watched this scene silently, as if racking his brains to think of something. After a while, with his efforts, strands of murderous aura finally emerged, and the ghosts pounced on him happily.
Jiang Xia: “…” Well, although his response was a bit perfunctory, compared with Okiya Subaru’s extremely poor cotton candy, he can be considered an excellent employee.
…
The floor was not high. Soon Jiang Xia came downstairs, ran to the street, and stopped beside the fallen man.
The man's head was slightly deformed, and it looked like he was going to die. However, as a cautious detective, he should have confirmed the death of the deceased before starting to solve the case.
Jiang Xia looked at the pool of blood and didn't really want to reach out.
At this moment, Hashimoto Maya stepped forward with a sincere look on her face: "Let me see, I used to be a doctor."
As a new employee who was forced to stay in the job, Hashimoto Maya not only focused on this contact, but began to look at the long-term - if she wanted to appear next to Jiang Xia often and try to reduce Jiang Xia's suspicion, she must have a reasonable motive.
Even if he couldn't avoid arousing Jiang Xia's suspicion, he had to at least be effective. Otherwise, if he held Jiang Xia back or stood by him like a decoration every day, even if Jiang Xia had a good temper, he would probably avoid him in the future. This was obviously not conducive to his work.
So while going downstairs, Maya Hashimoto thought quickly and soon found her position.
——Jiang Xia didn't need anyone's help in solving the case. As for the finale, the police would handle it.
After counting for a while, a person suddenly popped up in Hashimoto Maya's mind - Watson.
The doctor who always appears beside the great detective Sherlock Holmes and helps him perform autopsies or save lives.
It just so happened that Maya Hashimoto had also studied medicine. Although he was not very proficient in it, he had learned it after all. If he really couldn't figure it out, he could start now to make up for it.
So at this time, Maya Hashimoto, who had found her job, began to tentatively ask for help.
Jiang Xia was startled, and then her eyes turned into admiration as she looked at him: "Thank you very much, but remember not to touch any place where fingerprints can be left, and don't drop any hair, so as not to interfere with the police's evidence collection and judgment."
Hashimoto Maya: “…” Wait, why are you saying this as if the person on the ground is already dead?
This sudden thought made his heart skip a beat.
However, after looking down at the man lying there, Hashimoto Maya put aside her doubts: the man's head was a little deflated, and checking for death was just a formality - the high school girl over there had already called the police, and hadn't called an ambulance yet, which showed that Jiang Xia didn't know anything in advance, but that this was a consensus judgment reached by everyone.
Hashimoto Maya's heart was in turmoil. She checked the man who had fallen to the ground like a professional and said regretfully, "There are no vital signs."
Jiang Xia sighed softly, as if the detective was mourning the deceased.
After that, he did not investigate it himself again, and seemed to choose to trust Hashimoto Maya's judgment.
This made Hashimoto Maya feel relieved: It worked, her plan to quietly join the detective gang as a doctor was successful!
——But it’s no wonder. Jiang Xia usually likes to recruit people to be detectives.
Moreover, I heard that these famous detectives all admire Sherlock Holmes. Now that there is a Watson coming to their door, it is normal for Jiang Xia to accept him quickly.
A relaxing thought flashed through his mind, and immediately afterwards, Hashimoto Maya seemed to see a track hidden behind the wilderness - this mission to get close to Jiangxia seemed to allow him to play freely, but perhaps everything had already been arranged.
"No wonder Wu Zuo gave me this task so directly. He probably expected that Jiang Xia would have no resistance to a doctor like me who took the initiative to join."
Hashimoto Maya muttered a few words in his heart, and suddenly thought of something: “Uzo took a fancy to Jiang Xia, perhaps because he called himself Moriarty, so he wanted to personally train a Holmes of his own as an opponent.
"I was sent here to give Jiang Xia a 'Watson'. Besides Watson, I remember that there is actually a more famous small gang under Holmes - the Baker Street Guerrillas."
The Baker Street Guerrillas were composed of street kids from London. Because of their low status and young age, they were often ignored. However, it was these inconspicuous kids who helped Holmes collect a lot of information and often provided some key intelligence unexpectedly.
so……
Maya Hashimoto's eyes moved and fell on Conan next to her.
Originally, he was just thinking divergently and taking a casual look.
Unexpectedly, this sudden glance would lead him to see a creepy look - the little boy with glasses who always appeared next to Jiang Xia was standing in the shadows, staring at him quietly. The boy's eyes were full of inquiry, and the arc of light on his glasses made people feel a chill on their backs.
The two sides looked at each other, and Conan seemed to realize his omission. Suddenly he gave him a well-behaved smile, looking like an innocent child.
Hashimoto Maya nodded as if she didn't notice anything and looked away.
Then he shuddered with a magnitude that no one noticed.
Hashimoto Maya: "..." Facing such a horrible corpse, can a normal child really smile so brightly?
Why was this guy observing me secretly just now? !
"The 'Watson' beside Jiang Xia was sent by Wu Zuo, so what about the 'Baker Street Guerrillas'?"
Maya Hashimoto originally thought that a first-grade kid who knew nothing could never be Uzo's minion.
But soon, the image of Saburo Izuka, who seemed sometimes honest, sometimes stupid, and only occasionally showed a little bit of shrewdness, jumped into his mind a few days ago.
Hashimoto Maya suddenly realized one thing clearly.
...With Uzo, nothing is impossible.
——If Saburo Izuka could lurk beside him for so long without him noticing, then why couldn’t Conan be Usa’s subordinate?
There are few gifted children, but they do exist.
Hashimoto Maya was suddenly very nervous: "Could it be possible... that he is the 'colleague' that Uzo was going to introduce to me?"
