Chapter 2080 2088 [Incompetent Detective]
No matter what the onlookers were thinking, the battle in the Daha family nearby had not stopped yet.
Seeing that her son and mother-in-law were arguing again, Da He's mother hurried to smooth things over: "Mom, don't be angry yet. Look, the wedding is already done, and there's only one ceremony left..."
Grandma Ohga suddenly interrupted her, her tone mysterious: "Madai, think about it carefully. Ever since this child said he wanted to marry that woman, bad things have happened to our family one after another. Now even the heirloom has been lost. We still have a lot of other rings, but they can't be compared with the heirloom."
The groom was so angry that he almost murdered himself: "Grandma, this is superstition! Our bad luck is just bad luck, it has nothing to do with her."
Curacao: “…” No, your bad luck is not because of bad luck, but because Uzo is standing in this room - who told you to invite the daughter of the Suzuki family to visit? These rich families really don’t learn their lessons.
The groom's father saw his son and mother quarreling again and sighed: "Where is Xiao Qian? Find her first and let's discuss it together."
Groom: "She said she wanted to be alone in the lounge." After all, if she came, she would definitely be scolded by this group of people. Who would want to come?
However, when he mentioned the lounge, he suddenly thought of something and his expression changed slightly.
The groom looked at his sister who always had a bad relationship with him, and said meaningfully: "I remember that before my sister went to the bridal lounge, the ring was still on the dressing table. It looked so sparkling and matched Xiao Qian very well. I remember it very clearly!"
Sister Da He was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean? Do you suspect that I took the ring?"
Groom: "But the ring was lost after you went in! In order to prevent me from getting married, you actually stole it from me? - By the way, since you valued the ring so much, why didn't you call the police when it was lost? Doesn't this explain the problem?"
"Ridiculous!" The old lady slammed the table. "Why don't you call the police? Because if they find out that it was your fiancée who stole the ring, our family will also be disgraced! And having such a big detective next to us is much more useful than those useless policemen - kid, there is no need to call the police if we have you, right?"
When Curacao heard the word "little friend", he silently got goose bumps. This naive word, put together with ouzo, is really awkward, like eating sweet yogurt soaked in stinky tofu.
Jiang Xia: “…” For some reason, he felt like someone was scolding him.
But now that Grandma Da He was staring at him, Jiang Xia couldn't look away. He nodded and said, "I don't think it's appropriate to call the police either, because the person who took the ring might have been someone from your family."
Uncle Da He frowned, "Young man, don't talk nonsense. Why would our family steal our own ring? You guests should be more suspicious."
After a pause, he suddenly remembered that Suzuki Sonoko was also in the group, so he quickly changed the subject: "Well, I mean, besides you, there is another guest - the craftsman who is said to be from Otaru. He was only introduced to everyone yesterday. Although he appears to be a sunny and cheerful guy, no one knows who he is behind the scenes."
Although he changed his words quickly, Suzuki Sonoko still felt that she was being implied, so she no longer hesitated to give the other party face.
She took out a photo and snorted, "Jiang Xia of course said that because he had evidence! Look at this. This is the photo that was under the empty ring box. Ms. Katori said that this was the photo that Shinya took for her when they got engaged. You are the only one who has this photo, which shows that the person who took the ring is one of your family members."
Ohga sneered, "Katori also has this photo. Maybe she stole the ring and posted the photo to frame us. After all, Shinya is easy to deceive, but we are different. Only by making Shinya alienate us can she keep me, the future heir, firmly in her hands."
Grandma Da He and her granddaughter played the good cop and the bad cop respectively. The old lady sighed, as if she was very tired: "I never thought that one day, my grandson would suspect me of being a thief. How about this, since you suspect me, search our room thoroughly."
Ohga Shinya was indeed a little shaken: "Grandma..."
"But," Grandma Da He added firmly, "As long as the ring is not found, this wedding can't be held. Do you hear me?"
Ohga Shinya: “…” I didn’t really doubt you in the first place, but what you said made me overturn my previous conclusion.
But now that things have come to this, there is no point in arguing with this almost 80-year-old old lady.
Ohga Shinya suddenly turned his head and looked at Jiang Xia, as if he had seen a life-saving straw.
He walked over and grabbed Jiang Xia's hand: "I'll leave the matter of the ring to you!"
Jiang Xia nodded politely: "I'll try my best."
Xun Zhengwan: "..." Mom! This detective is taking extra money in front of us again! He doesn't care about his employer at all, please keep him under control!
…
The group left the lounge where the Daha family gathered and prepared to look for the ring.
"That's true, but a small item like a ring can be hidden very well with just a simple shove. Even if they allow us to search the room, it will be difficult to find the item."
Suzuki Sonoko looked at Jiang Xia worriedly: "Do you have any ideas?"
Jiang Xia thought for a moment and asked Ohga Shinya, "Your grandmother seemed to have said before that since you decided to get married, many unlucky things have happened in your family. What exactly are those 'unlucky things'?"
Ohga Shinya was originally very angry when he heard "grandma", but when he mentioned "ominous things", his expression softened a bit. Instead of anger, he looked more scared: "In fact, grandma almost died several times recently."
Almost died?
There is a problem.
Curacao pricked up his ears silently.
Ohga Shinya: "One time it was a rainy night, and when the driver was driving her out, the brakes suddenly failed. They almost crashed into a rock wall, and the car was destroyed and everyone was killed. Fortunately, the driver reacted quickly and finally drove the car onto the beach and managed to stop the car.
"Another time was in the morning. Our home is near Dutch Hill, where there is an old stone slope. My grandmother often goes there for a walk in the morning to breathe fresh air. A few days ago, I happened to accompany her for a walk. As we were walking, we found some fallen stones nearby. I looked up and saw a fallen rock taller than a person rolling down.
"I rushed to get my grandmother out of the way, and the next moment the rubble hit where she was standing, nearly killing her on the spot. If we count the heirloom that was lost today, that would be three incidents in total... Well, it's no wonder she's so suspicious."
