Chapter 2096 2104 [Uzo, Five Good Boss] Ask for monthly ticket (づど)
Honest people always look particularly scary when they get angry.
When Mrs. Tatsumi stepped on the tatami and walked in front of Tatsumi Ryunosuke, Tatsumi Ryunosuke was so scared that he took a step back and released his hand on the trigger.
Mrs. Xun raised her hand and looked like she wanted to hit him, but in the end she just snatched the shotgun and glared at her stepson.
Xun Longzhi didn't come back to his senses until he was disarmed. He spread his hands awkwardly and said with a smile: "It was just a joke, why did you take it so seriously?"
Sometimes, killing is just a momentary impulse. Xun Longzhi did not take action again, and a ball of murderous aura slowly fell.
Jiang Xia poked the ghost beside him, and Miss Spider understood and ran over to embrace the murderous aura back.
Mr. Akanuma, who was dressed as "Kuroko", still didn't come, but after this incident where he almost killed someone with a gun, no one remembered this insignificant guest anymore.
They finished the rest of the meal in a few mouthfuls, then soon parted unhappily, each going their own way.
…
During the day, as the sky brightened, the originally gloomy mountain village suddenly changed, and the scenery looked exceptionally bright.
However, with so many things happening just now, people gradually lost interest in going out for sightseeing.
Suzuki Sonoko thought of the guest who was absent from breakfast and said regretfully, "In the end, Mr. Akanuma didn't come to eat. I want to see what he looks like under his veil - how about we find a chance to sneak over and take a look?"
Conan: "Then you have to be careful. He showed up yesterday just after the 'Cursed Samurai' attacked Ms. Xun. The timing is too coincidental. Maybe he is the 'Cursed Samurai'."
Suzuki Sonoko was shocked when she remembered the huge knife mark on the door, but she became more curious.
She hesitated for a moment, then pulled Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan together to embolden herself: "It's not a big problem. If he is really the murderer who wrote the threatening letter, it's just right for Jiang Xia and Xiaolan to catch him!"
Mao Lilan thought of the terrible samurai she met along the way: "..." I, I may not be able to do it.
At this moment, the landline in the guest room suddenly rang.
The Xun family members were all doing their own things at the moment, busy preparing for the succession. Jiang Xia happened to be closest to the phone, so he picked up the phone.
A strange voice came from inside: "Are you the famous detective in Tokyo?"
Jiang Xia responded and politely asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm Akana." The person opposite was actually the one they were discussing just now.
The mysterious man said bluntly: "If you want to know the true identity of the 'Cursed Warrior', then you can come to see me late tonight with Mrs. Xun."
"Remember, it can only be the two of you. If a third person finds out about this..." He threatened coldly, "You will never know the truth again."
The signature on the threatening letter was "Cursed Warrior", and since this matter seemed to be closely related to the ancient legend of the Xun family, Jiang Xia certainly had no intention of refusing and agreed.
After hanging up the phone, he turned around and was met with several curious gazes from the people around him.
"Who's calling?" Suzuki Sonoko was close to the receiver and had sharp ears. "I seemed to hear 'Akanuma' - could it be that the mysterious 'Kuroko' is looking for you?"
Jiang Xia seemed to have a strong sense of professional ethics, and looked as if the secret could not be disclosed: "This matter can only be disclosed to the client."
Suzuki Sonoko sighed regretfully: "Okay." She should just wait a few days and watch the news directly. Those reporters have written so many case reports that their writing skills are getting better and better, and are no worse than some mystery novels.
…No, this matter may not even make the news.
No, no, it’s obviously not the place where anything bad will happen.
Suzuki Sonoko clasped her hands together silently and prayed that nothing would happen to the Xun family. After all, the transportation here was terrible, and there was only one doctor in the whole village. If something happened, it would be too late to provide emergency treatment...
…
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xia belatedly remembered his commission and went to find the two clients, and was then driven by the clients to keep an eye on Xun Ryunosuke.
Xun Longzhi glanced at him, with a hint of wariness, and a little guilty if you looked closely. He shook off Jiang Xia and wanted to leave alone.
The day passed quickly as they played hide-and-seek.
Late at night, when everyone was asleep, Jiang Xia pushed the door open and went to Mrs. Xun's room as requested on the phone.
The sound of footsteps passing by startled two people sleeping in the closet.
Hashimoto Maya: "..." Was it Jiang Xia's door that rang just now? Why did Jiang Xia go out? Was it because of the phone call she received during the day?
He couldn't help but feel a little curious.
...But this tiny bit of curiosity was quickly crushed by the desire to survive.
A second later, Hashimoto Maya wrapped himself tightly in the quilt, turned over, and pretended to be asleep, while being glad that Jiang Xia did not call him - going out alone at night and strolling in such a gloomy old house was very dangerous no matter how you looked at it.
Jiang Xia dared to go alone instead of waking up himself, the detective assistant, to accompany him... He is simply the best boss in the world.
Maya Hashimoto fell asleep moved.
One room apart.
The other person who noticed Jiang Xia had left the house couldn't close his eyes no matter what.
Curacao rubbed his sleepy eyes and a question popped up in his mind: Why did that guy run out in the middle of the night?
It looks like tonight is destined to be a sleepless night. I hope the danger won't spread here.
...No, wouldn't the guest room become more dangerous once Uzo leaves?
Would it explode or catch fire? Would she suddenly be trapped and killed in the closet?
Thinking of this, Curacao immediately opened his eyes and confirmed the strength of the closet again.
Confident that he could dismantle the closet with his bare hands if necessary, and even dismantle the room with his bare hands and escape to survive, Curacao breathed a sigh of relief and lay down again.
Curacao: “…” But I definitely can’t sleep.
Let’s wait for Wuzo to come back and everything is settled before going to sleep.
She then closed her eyes to rest, while pricked up her ears to listen carefully to the movements in the corridor.
…
On the other side, Jiang Xia found Mrs. Xun and went out with her.
Mrs. Xun had obviously also received the news. She looked worried and listless.
The two people went to the "Pinmen" where Akanuma was - the guest who called himself "Akanuma" came here to stay overnight yesterday, and because there were no guest rooms left, he lived in the room called Pinmen.
Jiang Xia followed Mrs. Xun with a flashlight and walked along the corridor for a while, then found a dead end ahead.
Mrs. Xun came back to her senses and introduced softly: "The 'Pinmen' is behind the wall. It is a secret room built by Xun's ancestors. Because it is occasionally used for living, it can barely be used as a guest room."
As she spoke, she had already walked to the wall.
I pushed it with my hand, and the wall really started to rotate with the middle as the axis, just like the revolving doors commonly used in hotels, except that the glass door was replaced by a wall.
Jiang Xia followed her into the room and came to a heavy iron door.
