Chapter 2007 2015 [Curaçao just wants to resign]
Jiang Xia held his chin and waited at the door for a while, but perhaps because Amuro Toru intended to conceal his part-time job hobby, he did not come in directly.
Instead, after a while, three other people came.
There were two women and one man. The oldest one was a wealthy lady wearing a kimono. She should be the distant cousin that Mrs. Xu mentioned, the second wife of the former head of the family. The man was much younger and looked like her son.
In addition to them, behind the two of them was a white-collar worker dressed in a suit and skirt, who was well-dressed.
The white-collar worker was holding a document in his arms, his long hair was combed back into a neat bun, and he was wearing half-frame glasses on his nose, looking very professional.
However, when he opened the door of the private room and looked down to see the people inside, the white-collar worker's expression suddenly froze, and a trace of shock as if he had seen a ghost appeared in his eyes.
Jiang Xia was also stunned when he saw her.
But he quickly came to his senses and took the initiative to greet them, "You must be the client introduced by Mrs. Xu. Please take a seat. You're welcome."
Curacao, who pretends to be a lawyer: "..."
The scent of aloe vera on her body suddenly gave off a murderous aura.
Curacao: "..." What kind of a task is this that Rum gave me? Is it too late to abandon the Xun family and turn around and leave?
…
Maya Hashimoto also felt that the lawyer looked familiar.
He stared at the woman's ordinary black hair and black eyes suspiciously, but had no clue. Finally, he had an idea and found the flaw in her lips, which were fuller than those of ordinary people.
Hashimoto Maya: “?!” Isn’t this the female cadre who was in charge of detaining me? You suddenly showed up here, and you still say that you and Uzo are not in the same group? !
No wonder he, Kurosawa, and Izuka were always caught by Usa no matter where they escaped... It turned out that there was a traitor lurking around, and besides Izuka Saburo, there was another traitor who held a high position!
His superiors had already taken the lead in the rebellion, no wonder he couldn't escape...
Jiang Xia was staring at the aloe vera with murderous intent when he suddenly noticed that the iced black tea next to him was also floating up.
However, this bucket of iced black tea knew how to judge the situation. Perhaps it had measured the strength of both sides and felt that the chances of winning were not on its side. The murderous aura decisively fell off and was happily embraced back by the ghosts.
…
No matter how much internal fighting there is, the organization's tacit understanding to keep it secret from the outside world is still there for the time being - Curacao pretended not to recognize the two people opposite her, and Hashimoto Maya and Jiang Xia also pretended not to recognize her.
However, Hashimoto Maya didn't know that Jiang Xia also knew Curacao. His eyes swung back and forth between the two of them, and all he could think about was: Uzo actually sent out other executives for his own entertainment of Holmes vs. Moriarty... Was this really a scene that he, a new employee, could stay in? He always had a bad feeling.
Curacao pulled up a stool and sat in the corner, placing the documents in her hand on the table. She reached for the menu and accidentally caught a glimpse of Hashimoto Maya's wary eyes. She was speechless for a moment: Stupid, why are you staring at me? You should be on guard against the thing next to you.
Anyway...
She glanced at Tatsumi Shino, the successor of the Tatsumi family, and the new head of the family, Tatsumi Masahiro—no, it was too early to call him the new head of the family. This person first had to live to the festival in a few days.
Unfortunately now...
She glanced at Jiang Xia and felt a little complicated for a moment.
…
Curacao was actually entrusted by someone to help another child of the former head of the family take over.
Although they are called children, in fact, the four children of the former head of the family are all adults, and each has his own thoughts - the reason why the organization is willing to intervene in this matter is because one of the children has something the organization needs, and he is also a talent.
Organizations usually don't mind this kind of win-win transaction involving ancient families.
This task is simple and a bit high-end, but it is not that difficult. Curacao originally took it as a half-time job. Her current identity is a lawyer and secretary responsible for executing the master's will.
Using this neutral identity, she stayed beside Tatsumi Shino and Tatsumi Seimaru, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Originally, tomorrow was the day for the action, but last night Xun Shino suddenly came to the door and said that she had a way to protect her son. If it was convenient, she hoped that Curacao, the person in charge of keeping the will, would come along as well, so that she would not be found by others and the will would not be destroyed.
Curacao followed suit.
"Originally, I wanted to see which confident guy dared to stop the organization from taking action, but why did it turn out to be..." Curacao was aiming at his two targets at this time, with murderous intent.
Hashimoto Maya had a vague sense of something and suddenly became nervous. She stared at the floor and pretended that she was a tall ball of air.
"That's what I mean."
Mrs. Xun shook hands with Jiang Xia and said to her son with a smile: "Jiang Xia is a very powerful detective. He will definitely protect you until the end of the festival and you can become the head of the family."
Xun Zhengwan glanced at Jiang Xia and said casually, "Hello."
Jiang Xia nodded at him and asked Mrs. Xun: "I have understood the general situation. Are you going back to your old house these days, or do you have other plans?"
He secretly prayed to go to a crowded place.
Mrs. Xun is indeed an unusual client.
She thought for a moment and said, "It's a rare opportunity for us to leave our old house and go to Tokyo. Since we're here, we might as well visit various tourist attractions and interesting places."
Jiang Xia was like a ruthless entrustment machine, never contradicting the client's wishes. When he heard her say this, he quickly agreed: "Okay."
Hashimoto Maya was stunned for a moment: "Attractions and interesting places?" It's not safer to stay at home in such a crowded place.
Mrs. Xun saw his doubts and sighed softly: "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I used to be poor and I was busy every day trying to survive. I have never been to any of the tourist attractions and entertainment venues that young people like to visit."
She lowered her eyes and touched her now well-maintained hands: "Later, I accidentally entered Xun's family as a maid, and was favored by the previous owner and became his successor. Every day, I was busy managing the household. As the wife of the owner, it was even more inconvenient for me to go to those places."
"If anyone wants to kill my son, he must step over my body first. Perhaps these days will be the last days of my life." When Mrs. Xun said this, tears welled up in her eyes.
She lifted the wide sleeves of her kimono, wiped the corners of her eyes, and adjusted her expression before continuing, "I just want to spend these few days meaningfully. This way, even if something unexpected happens, I won't have lived in vain."
Maya Hashimoto couldn't help but admire this great maternal love, but at the same time she felt it was not auspicious.
The assassination of other heirs has not even begun, how can you make your words sound like a will?
Stop talking now, what if you really attract Uzo?
