Chapter 2070 2078 [Curaçao's Nightmare]
Curacao wasn't sure whether it was a good dream or a nightmare.
Maybe because she had seen too many policemen recently, she actually dreamed that she turned into a heroic female police officer, leading her subordinates to chase Wuzo who had been exposed for thousands of miles.
Perhaps she subconsciously felt that as long as she sent that guy in, she would be safe. A member of an organization in Curacao, she worked particularly hard as a policeman in her dream.
But Wuzo was good at running, hiding and cunning, so she led people to chase him all night but failed to catch him. Finally, she finally caught him in a complicated alley.
However, she had just started the alley chase and had not run far when she was misled by Uzo and stepped into a cliff.
In the dream, Curacao had no time to ponder questions like “Why did such a deep cliff suddenly appear in the alleys of Tokyo?”, just as she had no time to think about “When did I become a police officer” before - at this moment, the only thing left in her mind was the image of Uzo standing on the cliff, looking down at her against the light.
In the dawn of the rising sun, the cunning criminal smiled at her: "Have a good rest and have a sweet dream."
At first glance, the voice seemed very gentle, and it was exactly the same as the "blessing" she heard last night.
Curacao's heart trembled, her pupils dilated with fear, her hand holding the small tree on the cliff slipped, and then she suddenly fell...
With a thud, it fell on the fluffy carpet in the hotel room.
Curacao jumped up and realized that the extremely real feeling of falling just now was because she accidentally fell off the bed.
“…”
Thinking of this dream, Curacao just wanted to cover his head in pain.
To be fair, the process of leading the crowd to chase and intercept Wuzo was still very happy. At least she saw a glimmer of hope.
But in fact, until the end, she didn't catch up with the person, but was so tired that she felt like she was exhausted.
So is this considered a nightmare?
In response to Mrs. Xun's concerned inquiries, Curacao finally nodded.
——The fact that Uzo appeared in her dream alone was definitely a nightmare within a nightmare!
…
After waking up, the group went to eat the breakfast provided by the hotel one after another, and then suddenly met in the restaurant.
Curacao saw Jiang Xia and turned a corner calmly. She originally wanted to go to the dessert area, but now she went to get a salad and a sandwich.
When Hashimoto Maya saw Curacao, she was stunned for a moment and then suddenly became alert: the woman's dark circles under her eyes had become heavier.
This shows that during the last lunch break and last night, Curacao must not have not slept, but was secretly doing other things behind everyone's back.
After a quick calculation, she realized that with her ability, this period of time was enough to fill the entire restaurant with bombs.
Hashimoto Maya was silent for a moment, and began to observe and familiarize herself with the hotel's escape route for the Nth time.
He was not as panicked as he was yesterday. He was not idle last night. He placed an order overnight and paid extra money to have the store deliver two sets of high-altitude rappelling equipment. He then hid them very carefully - in case of an emergency, these are life-saving equipment. If the store was out of stock, he would even want to buy a few more sets.
This would certainly make it easy for him to be suspected of being the murderer because of his suspicious behavior when something happened in the hotel, but with Jiang Xia, his wise and powerful boss, present, no one would be able to slander him!
Although he would definitely be given high attention by the police during the process of being suspected, he had actually gradually gotten used to it after so many days.
While thinking, Hashimoto Maya picked up some food at random, not bothering to choose the taste, and hurried to fill her stomach: Who knows when something might suddenly happen, she has to eat well to have the strength to deal with various emergencies.
…
After all, everyone was traveling together and of course they ate at the same table - in fact, two people wanted to sneak away, but they were caught by the detectives who were united, friendly and focused on teamwork.
Hashimoto Maya and Curacao ate in silence.
Jiang Xia took the initiative to liven up the atmosphere at the table: "Where are you going to play today?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole table became even more silent. Xun Zhengwan choked on his toast and coughed for a long time before he finally breathed enough air.
"We still want to go out and play?" Xun Zhengwan said angrily, "We haven't played at all these days. We have been encountering murders, solving cases, and taking confessions. Look at what a stupid process you planned!"
Curacao and Hashimoto Maya secretly gave him a thumbs up in their hearts.
Jiang Xia felt that this statement was not very rigorous: "Nothing was played? You watched the mermaid show, right?"
Xun Zhengwan: "I saw it, but one floated up in the second round..."
Jiang Xia interrupted: "You also watched the masked performance."
Xun Zhengwan: "I can't say I didn't watch it at all, but he died in the river halfway through the performance..."
Jiang Xia: "Have you entered the maze mirror house?"
Xun Zhengwan: "I entered, but just halfway through the maze, I found a dead body lying in the maze..."
Jiang Xia: "You also went to the Five-Storied Pagoda."
Xun Zhengwan slammed the table and said, "I did go there twice, but who wants to see a place where ghost stories are told with hanging corpses?"
Jiang Xia couldn't understand: "You have visited all the guests and people you should have visited. It has been such a fulfilling three days. What on earth are you dissatisfied with?"
Xunzhengwan: "..."
After counting like that, it can't be said that I didn't play anything.
All I can say is that every entertainment is accompanied by a murder case that is tailored to the circumstances, and sometimes even two.
Xun Zhengwan stuffed the last piece of fried goose egg into his mouth, slumped in his seat, and answered Jiang Xia's question: "I'm not satisfied with anything! I hate Tokyo, there is simply nothing good in the city!"
Guests at several tables nearby looked over with gloomy eyes, as if they were looking at an impolite bumpkin.
Xun Zhengwan didn't care about these looks at first, and even wanted to take advantage of his temper to say "What are you looking at!"
…But thinking of the bloody cases, he finally looked away and shut his mouth.
Humph, don’t bother with people from Tokyo.
Mrs. Xun may be older and more experienced, so she didn't react as enthusiastically as Xun Zhengwan. She just looked at Jiang Xia and said, "There is still some time before the ceremony for the succession of the head of the family. Do you have any recommendations?"
Jiang Xia was about to speak when an email suddenly came on his phone.
Judging from the vibration pattern, he is a person who has been marked for special attention.
Jiang Xia immediately stopped talking and took out his phone. He clicked on it and saw that it was indeed a message from one of his good classmates, Suzuki Sonoko.
Jiang Xia pressed the buttons and finished reading, then realized something belatedly: "Today is actually the weekend."
Xun Zhengwan glanced at the date on his phone and found that it was true: for someone who neither went to class nor went to work on weekdays, the days were inevitably a bit confusing.
Jiang Xia sent an email back to the other party. After a while, he saw the reply and said to the two clients: "Since you are a little tired of Tokyo, how about changing your taste and going out of town for a few days?"
