Chapter 1999 2007 [Uzo’s Human Efficiency]
At first, Maya Hashimoto didn't realize that the three people who came to the station were employees of the agency - because the front desk person who contacted him at the time was not these three people, but another woman.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look behind the three people: Where's the repeater? Didn't he come?
The three employees noticed his gaze, and the man among them looked up and glared at him again.
"?" Hashimoto Maya was puzzled: Does this guy have some dissatisfaction with him?
Having said that, he didn't cause any trouble in the agency, but these employees disliked him. No wonder this crappy company was going to go bankrupt.
Hashimoto Maya snorted in her heart and looked away.
Just then, the loudspeaker in the station started announcing that the subway was about to arrive.
The young woman among the employees saw the vending machine more than ten meters away, remembered something, and trotted over: "I'll go buy a bottle of juice."
The man was startled: "The car is coming soon."
The young woman waved her hand: "Don't worry, we can make it in time. I shop very quickly."
As we were talking, the subway arrived at the station.
Jiang Xia withdrew his gaze and got into the car with the two fake children.
Maya Hashimoto was hesitating next to her, and she really wanted to go to the vending machine to buy a bottle of juice and avoid going with Jiang Xia and the others.
But after hesitating for a moment, he finally followed into the carriage out of his determination not to be defeated by two elementary school students.
Soon, the vehicle started.
Conan whispered to Huibara Ai: "This guy followed Jiang Xia, he must have something to hide. You see, he looked thoughtful even when he got in the car, maybe he was up to something bad - do you really have no impression of him?"
Haibara Ai: “…” If you remove the lower half of the face alone, it’s quite impressive, but even without the eyes.
She shook her head.
Conan sighed inwardly.
Next to them, the two colleagues from the agency were also mumbling to each other. The female senior complained, "She ran to buy drinks before getting on the bus. What was she doing earlier? She always thinks about things and is so leisurely. I think she will lose her job sooner or later."
The man sighed: "I don't know if she caught this train. Let's go and see. If she did, we'll meet her up."
The female senior nodded, and the two of them walked towards the door and quickly went to the next carriage.
…
The further back we go, the fewer people there are in the carriage.
The two office workers walked all the way to an empty carriage. Through the transparent partition door, they could see a young woman holding a drink in her hand and sighing with her head down.
"Yukiko?" The man opened the car door and asked her, "Why didn't you come to find us after you got in the car?"
Yukiko Mori was flustered: "I wanted to go find you guys right away, but I accidentally spilled my drink when I was in a hurry to get in the car."
The man shook his head helplessly: "You are always so clumsy."
After finding his companion, he sat down on a nearby stool. As his vision changed, the man was suddenly startled: in the corner of the bench diagonally opposite, there was a woman sitting very low-key, sleeping against the wall, and she looked very familiar.
"Qingmei?" The man stood up and casually confirmed with two female colleagues who were still chatting, "That's Qingmei, right?"
"Ah?" The two were startled, turned around and looked in the direction he was looking, and found that there was indeed a familiar person sitting in the corner.
Female senior: "It's really her. Didn't she say she had something to do tonight and skipped work early? How come she caught the same bus as us?"
The man laughed. "I guess he fell asleep as soon as he got on the bus, and then he took this circular line back. We have a lot of work in our company recently. Although there is no sales, there are a lot of miscellaneous tasks that make us exhausted."
As he spoke, he nudged the pretty female colleague who had unfortunately missed her stop: "Wake up."
After the blow, the person didn't wake up, but fell to the ground with a thud.
“…”
"???"
"ah--!!"
…
The piercing scream echoed in the carriage and faintly reached the ears of Jiang Xia and the others.
Jiang Xia turned his head and looked to the side: "Is someone shouting?"
Hashimoto Maya blurted out: "You heard it wrong."
Conan's eyes were sharp. He suddenly turned his head to lock the direction of the sound, then rushed over.
Jiang Xia quickly followed. As soon as he left, the mixed-race child also trotted after him.
Hashimoto Maya: “…”
For some reason, he began to have a bad feeling again.
…
The four of them moved through the carriage, either actively or passively, and soon reached where the screams came from.
When the door was opened, there were four people in the carriage: one was lying on the ground, and three were squatting next to him. The one man and two women who were still alive were anxiously surrounding the man on the ground, as if they wanted to give him first aid, but they didn't know where to start.
Jiang Xia showed his detective nature and quickly blended into the crowd: "Let me take a look."
In the chaos, Hashimoto Maya also quietly poked her head out and took a look at the person on the ground.
Hashimoto Maya: “…”
...Isn't this the repeater? Why is it lying here?
In the afternoon, he wanted to buy land for Wuzo, but this woman perfunctorily gave him the OK. As a result, she died in the evening. This, this is really...
Hashimoto Maya was in a very complicated mood, but after thinking about it, he felt that it made sense: that string of unprofessional Tai Chi words made even him furious, and it was no wonder that things turned out like this when Uzo heard it.
Having said that, it was a good thing that he didn't hack the agency's system before, otherwise he might be punished again now.
Just as he was distracted, Jiang Xia seemed to remember something and looked back at him: "Come and take a look."
Give newcomers opportunities to exercise.
Maya Hashimoto came to her senses, quickly switched to work mode, and reached out to explore.
Soon, his expression became complicated: "Dead. He may have been dead for nearly an hour."
Jiang Xia sighed, as if mourning the dead. He quickly looked at the three passers-by next to him and said, "Is this someone you know? When I came in just now, I seemed to hear you calling her name."
The three people never imagined that the person who was still alive and kicking in the afternoon would suddenly die in the car.
They nodded with lingering fear: "Qingmei is our colleague. She left early today because of something. We thought she must be happy now, but after entering this carriage just now..."
Halfway through her words, the female senior suddenly realized something and stared at Jiang Xia's face: "You look familiar... Wait, are you the famous detective who's always on TV?!"
Jiang Xia: "Not really...you guys step back a little. Try to preserve the scene as best as possible."
The three of them didn't often run into celebrities in their lives, so when they suddenly encountered a murder case, they were at a loss. Now, hearing what the detective said, they immediately cooperated and silently stepped back.
Maya Hashimoto squatted beside the corpse, and her eyes quickly fell on the ear of the repeater.
