Chapter 231 Detective Don't Come Near Me, Ask for Monthly Tickets ()
"Nine, nine..." Maori Kogoro racked his brains for a long time and hesitated, "'Nine' can't be thought of for the time being, but I thought of 'eight' - I have a wine taster friend, his name is Sawaki Kouhei."
"Then let's go find him first." Inspector Megure sighed, "Save as many as you can."
A group of people rushed to Sawaki Kohei's house.
Jiang Xia quietly joined the team.
No one came to stop him. Instead, after seeing him, Inspector Megure secretly breathed a sigh of relief, with an expectant look that "the case will be solved soon."
…
Sawaki Gonghe lived alone in a two-story villa. When he saw a group of people coming to his door, he welcomed them in with surprise and even served them tea attentively.
Then a group of people sat on both sides of the coffee table. Sawaki Kouhei glanced at the police and detectives and asked gently, "What happened?"
"It's like this." Inspector Megure was in no mood to drink tea. He sighed, "Recently there has been a series of attacks against Mr. Maori Kogoro."
He briefly explained the previous cases: "According to the calculations, the next person to be attacked should be 'Nine', but we couldn't think of anyone with the name 'Nine', so we came to you first."
"I see..." Sawaki Kouhei seemed to be more cooperative than Tsuji Hiroki, "So I'm 'Eight'?"
"That's right." Inspector Megure nodded, "Please try to avoid going out alone in the near future."
"Avoid going out alone?" Sawaki Kouhei listened carefully, then revealed a troubled expression:
"But I have a very important appointment soon. You know Asahi Shengyi, the famous industrialist.
"Recently, he built a large marine entertainment facility in Tokyo Bay - the Crystal Water Restaurant. After hearing about my plan to open a restaurant, he intended to let me run one of the restaurants. So we agreed to discuss the details at three o'clock this afternoon."
Jiang Xia repeated thoughtfully: "Xu Shengyi? ...Xu?"
Inspector Megure was startled, and suddenly looked at Maori Kogoro: "Do you know this person? - His name contains 'nine'."
Maori Kogoro hesitated and said, "Asahi Katsuyoshi once asked me to help find a cat. It's the cat with a heart on the side... But other than this one request, we have no other intersections. Can this also be counted in the sequence? The attacker is too unrefined."
"Indeed." Jiang Xia sighed, "However, there is no other 'Nine' at the moment, and Mr. Sawaki Kouhei must go to the appointment..."
After hearing what Jiang Xia said, Inspector Megure made the final decision: "In that case, let's go with Mr. Sawaki! We can't find Jiu at the moment anyway, so let's just try our luck."
Sawaki Gongping smiled. He looked at his watch and stood up gracefully: "Okay, thank you for your help."
…
The group quickly drove to Tokyo Bay.
The weather was clear, the wind was calm, and the sea was blue. A long cable car track protruded from the shore and extended all the way into the center of the bay.
Jiang Xia got off the car, put his hands on the pergola, looked along the track, and found that at the end of it was a sea building shaped like the Sydney Opera House.
——This is the “Water Crystal Undersea Restaurant” that was completed not long ago.
"There's an unmanned cable car upstairs. We have to take that." Sawaki Kouhei lowered his head to look at his phone, seemingly checking the email that Asahi Katsuyoshi had sent him in advance. He quickly looked at the small building next to him and said, "Let's go."
