Chapter 2291 2303 [Vodka Brother]
Conan lay by the French window, looking at the body in the living room through the glass for several times. Finally, he couldn't help but sneak into the house to look for more clues.
As soon as the door opened, Vodka's eyes immediately moved over behind his sunglasses.
Vodka: “…” You actually dared to sneak into the crime scene alone and wander around. Humph, you are just relying on the fact that you are a child and cannot be held accountable by the police. Otherwise, you would have left traces and been suspected of being the murderer.
Just as he was cursing the little devil who was trying to trick Akai Shuichi, suddenly, a voice came from the side.
"When we were in the study just now, why did you stay at the door? Why didn't you come in with everyone else to take a look?" Jiang Xia patted his shoulder as if he was familiar with him. "Are you shy?"
Vodka was startled and almost wanted to grab him and throw him over his shoulder, but fortunately his common sense made him stop without any danger.
He silently moved aside to avoid the claws, and then said, "I'm worried about destroying the clues at the crime scene." Oh, what else could it be? Of course, I'm worried that I'll leave traces after entering, and you'll use this as an excuse to turn me into a suspect of the police - don't think I don't know, this is your usual trick when you're trying to trick people!
Jiang Xia nodded thoughtfully, and said in a voice that the two high school students next to him couldn't hear: "Are you afraid that you will leave traces after entering the house, and I will use this as an excuse to attract police investigation?"
Vodka: “?!!”
He subconsciously covered his mouth, his eyes blank: Did he accidentally say what was in his heart? !
Jiang Xia glanced at him, then looked at the police car approaching in the distance, and suddenly smiled:
"In fact, if I were you, I would go into the house with the others just now - otherwise, if the police come and find your hair in the house, and everyone else can prove that you have never entered the house just now, how are you going to explain it then?"
“?!”
Vodka's heartbeat suddenly became violent. He felt as terrified as if he had walked into a dead end just when he thought he was safe. He blurted out, "You, you put my hair in there?!"
Two high school girls were waving excitedly at the police car. When they vaguely heard the noise, they turned around in confusion: "What went in?"
"Mr. Yamada" smiled distortedly: "...Hehe, nothing, I was just discussing some professional issues with Mr. Jiang Xia."
"So that's how it is..." The two naive high school students felt that his expression was a bit strange, but they couldn't see too many details through the huge sunglasses.
In the end, they stopped suspecting anything and turned around to welcome the police - they didn't want to stay in this terrible villa where everyone was wiped out for even a second longer, they just wanted the police to wrap up the matter as soon as possible so they could return to their safe homes as soon as possible.
After sending away the passers-by who might expose his identity, Vodka looked at Jiang Xia warily, and touched his head in grief and anger: "What on earth do you want to do!"
Jiang Xia looked at the thin wisp of ice cream he had just plucked and sighed in disappointment: "I just felt that your handling of the matter just now was too blunt, so I'm going to teach you what to do next time you encounter a similar situation - you're so wary of a colleague who gave you a kind reminder, you're really not an easy person to get along with."
Vodka's fist hardened: "…" Who is so hard to get along with? If everyone who knows you were to vote for the "most annoying colleague", you would definitely win all the votes and be the first by a large margin!
And what does it mean to teach with good intentions? If I really listened to it, next time I would definitely be like your unlucky blonde foreign teacher, being investigated by the police as a suspect every day!
Staring at the innocent face in front of him, Vodka's heart was filled with grief and indignation.
Then he squeezed the phone in his pocket hard to comfort his devastated heart.
——Brother Gin was listening to all of this conversation simultaneously. Your sinister face has been exposed. Don’t even think about disrupting the solid working relationship between me and my brother!
Vodka: “…” But, did this guy really not put his hair in the study?
Vodka touched his hair which was doubly protected by a hat and hairspray, and was momentarily lost in thought between "rushing into the house to remedy the situation before the police get out of the car" and "sticking to myself".
…
In the end, Vodka gritted his teeth and didn't dare to enter the house.
Seeing that the police car was about to arrive at the yard, if he turned around and went into the house at this time, the word "suspicious" would be engraved in capital letters on his face.
After all, it was well known that the police were extremely sensitive to those who turned away when they saw them. If he really did that, his suspicion would probably rise sharply, and he would immediately receive the burning attention of all the police officers until the real culprit was found in this case - maybe this was the real purpose of what Uzo said just now.
"Also, we must guard against the dangerous child in the house."
The more Vodka thought about it, the more he couldn't move. "If I stay alone with Conan, what if that brat inherits Uzo's insidiousness and shamelessness, and relies on his face as a good kid who can't lie, and suddenly lies on the ground and rolls around saying that I beat him up? Then I will have to go back with the police to be investigated - this is undoubtedly a walk through the gates of hell for a member of an organization."
…
In the end, Vodka still couldn't make up his mind to go into the place where Conan was.
And the time he had to hesitate was over - a group of police cars came roaring in and stopped in the yard.
Inspector Megure pushed the door and got out of the car, stretching his body tiredly. Then he raised his head and looked at the people in front of him who seemed so familiar to him.
When his eyes swept over Vodka, Inspector Megure was stunned - a suit, sunglasses and a burly man, this common configuration of gangsters, made his heart skip a beat and he suddenly became alert.
But he soon came to his senses, scratched his head and remembered something: "I seem to have seen you somewhere, you are...right, are you the Yamada brother?"
Jiang Xia couldn't help but look at him: "..." Inspector Megure has a really good memory about his younger brother.
Of course, Vodka also recognized this policeman. Thinking of his last experience with the police, he could only hold his nose and continue to maintain his identity as a "Jiang Xia fan" and "honest technology geek", trying his best to show his most honest smile: "Hello, hello, Officer Megure, see you again."
Inspector Megure shook his hand politely.
Vodka withdrew his hand and looked down: "..." He actually shook hands with the policeman. This hand is dirty.
Of course, what’s even dirtier is the shoulder that Uzo just hit!
Vodka felt uncomfortable all over and wanted to go back to the organization's safe house to take a bath immediately, but for various reasons he had to stay there with a grievance.
