Chapter 2048 2056 [Where are you, Bourbon? ]
Inspector Megure stroked his chin and looked at the temple manager: "So you are the first person to discover it?"
The temple manager nodded.
Inspector Megure's eyes suddenly became sharp: "But I remember you didn't seem to be the one who called the police. Why didn't you call the police immediately?"
The temple manager was still terrified: "I was shocked at the time, and then I remembered that Jiang Xia had been here yesterday, so I called a detective."
Inspector Megure felt that this guy was weird: "Shouldn't a normal person call the police first? Could it be that detectives are more reliable than police officers?"
After a pause, he silently changed his words: "Anyway, any normal person would call the police first, including the detective himself!"
Abbot Danhai suddenly snorted coldly and looked at the temple manager: "Although this guy is in my temple in name only, his heart has long been with the Oda Company. So when something like this happened, he panicked and wanted to find a detective to settle the matter privately."
The temple manager was shocked: "I don't have it!"
Abbot Danhai stared at him angrily: "If you hadn't introduced that scumbag Xiaotian to me, how could our temple have fallen into this situation! How dare he dare to slide on the top of the Buddha's head? How could he think of that!"
The temple manager hesitated and said, "I didn't expect him to be so... uh, so creative. I just wanted to increase the number of tourists in the temple." Then he would hire more people. Otherwise, he would be the only one sweeping the temple, which would be really tiring.
Inspector Megure caught another key word: "Deceived by the deceased? In that case, you three are also suspects."
Abbot Danhai was furious again: "How dare you slander me?! I am already showing leniency by allowing you, the common people, to come to my temple. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will kick you out right now!"
Inspector Megure: “…” It’s so difficult to communicate with the old monk.
When Inspector Megure was dealing with a troublesome suspect.
Jiang Xia walked around and caught a man from behind a tree.
"Although you are only a detective assistant now, you will become a detective on your own sooner or later." Jiang Xia pushed Hashimoto Maya to the side of the corpse, "Observe carefully and don't be distracted."
Hashimoto Maya: “…”
From various perspectives, Jiang Xia is a perfect boss who is good at cultivating his subordinates. But he is just an undercover sent by the evil organization, and he doesn't want to be involved in the case!
While protesting loudly in her heart, Maya Hashimoto could only pretend to be very motivated and observe like a real detective.
Curacao glanced over here, as if he had already seen the scene after the case was solved, when Hashimoto Maya was pushed to the front as a "remarkable new detective star" to face the wave of flash lights.
Curacao: “…” Fortunately, he is not Uzo’s subordinate and does not need to be forced to be a detective.
Fortunately, the stubborn Rum gave in in advance and agreed to transfer Hashimoto Maya to Uzo.
Otherwise, if it weren't for Hashimoto Maya, Usa's attention would have been all on her during this encounter... something bad would have definitely happened.
As she thought about it, she quietly hid behind Mrs. Xun.
…
Curacao is now nominally the lawyer of the Xun family and has the protection of his employer.
Maya Hashimoto has nowhere to hide.
He walked to the corpse with a bitter face. He didn't dare to show off too much, but he also didn't dare to be too secretive, for fear that Jiang Xia would cancel the order in anger, and then his mission in Wuzo would also fail.
If you make a mistake elsewhere, you may be fired, but if you make a mistake in Uzo...
"There's some mud and grass clippings on the deceased's elbows." Hashimoto Maya collected clues in an orderly manner. "There's some mud on the soles of his shoes, too. Maybe he stepped on the lawn and fell on it before he died?"
This conclusion is a bit crude.
Fortunately, Jiang Xia seems to be a tolerant boss, so this clue is enough for Hashimoto Maya to complete her mission.
Jiang Xia nodded and added, "Just now when I went to look for you under the tree, I saw something not far away."
He pointed in that direction, and Hashimoto Maya turned her head to look, and suddenly she felt something shiny flashing in her sight.
He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Could it be that diamond tie pin?"
Jiang Xia responded: "So do you understand who the murderer is?"
Hashimoto Maya: “?”
...How should I know this!
He suddenly realized that he had thought too much: there was no need to hide his incompetence, as he was completely unable to keep up with the standards of a rising star detective.
Jiang Xia sighed and patted his shoulder: "Forget it, let's proceed step by step and keep working hard in the future - go find a policeman first and ask them to deal with the collar pin on the ground. That should be the real crime scene."
Maya Hashimoto stood up and left with mixed feelings.
Curacao silently watched him pass by: "..." What is this person missing? Shouldn't he be thankful that he got away with it?
...It seems I have to stay away from him in the future. This guy may have been influenced by Uzo.
She turned around thoughtfully and suddenly found a figure in front of her.
Jiang Xia: "Ms. Shirai seems to be looking over there, are you also interested in solving the case?"
Curacao nonchalantly shifted his hand holding the folder, revealing the lawyer badge on his chest: "I'm just a lawyer." Don't ask me to solve a case, and stay away from me on the stage.
Jiang Xia: "Being a detective is actually an interesting side job."
Curacao: "I'm so sorry, I'm afraid of corpses and I'm not qualified for such a sacred position."
Mrs. Xun heard her conversation and nodded as if she understood.
Jiang Xia: “…”
It would be great if I could have Curacao as my subordinate, what a pity. I don't know if Rum would be willing to let him go if I approach him.
But Curacao is also a cadre, so the chances of him being transferred to his position are almost zero...
He looked at the colleague in front of him with envy, who was exuding the fragrance of aloe vera and murderous aura, and left with regret.
Curacao: “…”
She recalled the feeling of staring at prey just now and shuddered silently.
At the same time, she couldn't help but feel resentful: Where did Bourbon go? Why didn't he come with her today? If he was here, Uzo probably wouldn't have time to find her...
The faint smell of aloe vera spread faster.
…
The police soon found the sparkling diamond brooch under the tree and expressed their gratitude to the enthusiastic detective assistant who provided the clue.
But Inspector Megure had more questions on his mind: "Finding the diamond is a good thing, because it means there was no robbery involved. The man was most likely committing suicide. But if he died on the top of the tower, how come his collar pin was on the lawn? Did it accidentally fall off when he committed suicide?"
"It wasn't suicide." Jiang Xia pointed to the top of the tower. "The location of the hanging noose is relatively outside. If you calculate the distance, you can find that the height of the deceased plus the length of the hanging noose is not enough to fill the distance from the noose to the railing. So he didn't hang himself by standing on the railing or the eaves, but someone else hung him up there."
