Chapter 2405 2417 [Uzo's Double Guns]
The guy who recommended himself at that time secretly wore the male protagonist's clothes and helmet, leaving only the lower half of his face exposed.
Suzuki Sonoko thought he was Kudo Shinichi at first sight, so she always treated him as Kudo Shinichi, but now...
Suzuki Sonoko: “…”
She touched her chin, raised her hand to cover Hattori Heiji's eyes, carefully looked at the lower half of his face, and then looked back at Kudo Shinichi, whom she hadn't seen for a while: "Look closely, if you change the color, he really looks like him..."
Although the "male protagonist" who volunteered at the time seemed to have the voice of Kudo Shinichi, without much of an Osaka accent, looking back now, Suzuki Sonoko couldn't be sure.
People's memory is unreliable. She even forgot for a moment whether she really heard Kudo Shinichi's voice at that time, or because the man looked so similar to hers, she automatically imagined Kudo Shinichi's voice.
…Anyway, it was the fault of this Osaka high school student that she recognized the wrong person.
Suzuki Sonoko: "Why are you pretending to be Kudo?"
Hattori Heiji's mind raced, and his reaction to solving a case was usually not so quick: "At first I was just afraid that your performance would fail, so I went on stage to help you, but you mistook me for Kudo Shinichi. I thought it was very funny, so I pretended to be happy."
Mao Lilan was skeptical: "Really..."
A few high school students were reviewing what had just happened.
Beside him, the "new doctor" pricked up his ears silently.
As an expert in disguise, Vermouth is very sure that although the two are very similar, the "male protagonist" she saw on the stage is definitely not the dark-skinned Osaka detective in front of her - it must be Kudo Shinichi, and it is actually the high school version of Kudo Shinichi.
“Cool Guy actually found a way to change back to his original body?” Vermouth had mixed feelings for a moment, “This is a good thing, but in another sense, it’s actually a fatal bad thing… Speaking of which, what role did Uzo play in this matter?”
"Besides, this change is probably related to Shirley. After the couple died, she was one of the people in the world who knew the medicine best..."
Vermouth's mood was suddenly filled with ups and downs, and the scent of apples on her body became stronger.
As she thought about it, she couldn't help but secretly look at Jiang Xia.
——Although there was no evidence, she always felt that this colleague who had close ties with Teitan Junior High School must know everything.
But after hesitating for a moment, Vermouth did not approach to ask: experience told her that whether Wu Zuo knew or not, she would definitely not be able to get anything out of him. Maybe asking would cause some trouble that she did not want to see.
...That's what should be the case intellectually.
But in fact, after cleaning up the backstage and leaving the theater, Vermouth still couldn't help but talk to Jiang Xia, trying to get some information out of her indirectly.
She calmly took a few steps back, and distanced herself from the other high school students with Jiang Xia, then asked casually, "Although your class's drama performance failed, you seem to be in a very good mood?"
When she opened her mouth, Vermouth was already prepared for irony or counter-probing.
However, unexpectedly, Wu Zuo just smiled at her mysteriously and said nothing more.
Vermouth: “……?”
She was stunned for a moment, then slowly realized what was happening: she had originally been teasing the other person for being in a good mood just casually, but now it seemed that Wu Zo was in a really good mood, so good that it was beyond her expectations.
…What on earth happened?
Could it be that he took the opportunity to play with Akai Shuichi twice and had a lot of fun?
But apart from almost sending that guy to the police station, nothing special seemed to have happened today. Even if the opponent was the rare "Silver Bullet", it didn't seem to make Uzo's mood so obviously improved...
This made Belmode feel a little itchy, and she became uncontrollably curious. She asked again, "What happy things happened to you?"
Sure enough, a young cadre who loves the stage would not mind showing others the results of his busy day.
Jiang Xia hooked his finger at Vermouth like a mysterious cowboy in the movie, and when she came closer curiously, he slightly opened his coat to show her what was inside.
Vermouth: "..."
Vermouth rubbed his eyes and looked again at the cold, hard black metal that he had pinned to his waist: "......?"
Why does it look so much like a gun?
Wait, no matter how you look at it, it's a gun, and it's a Jericho 941, a rare model in China and not often used in the organization.
...Where did you get this stuff? !
A dangerous and uncontrollable young cadre, plus a dangerous hot weapon. This bad combination made the Thousand-Faced Witch feel a chill on her back, and she had the urge to turn around and immediately pull Mao Lilan back out of Uzo's range.
But things have come to this point. If I run away now, my back will be exposed and I will die faster.
Vermouth took a deep breath and had to bet her life on the fact that Uzo would not resort to such crude means as "shooting people in the street".
She looked away as if she hadn't seen anything, and walked forward as if nothing had happened, but she couldn't help but twitching her eyes: "Who gave it to you?"
Jiang Xia straightened his clothes and was in a good mood: "A passerby gave it to me."
Vermouth: "..."
Although she knew that the gun was not given to her by Shuichi Akai voluntarily, and that the guy next to her must have used some means, at this moment, her murderous intent towards Shuichi Akai could not help but reach its peak: useless ace, he can't even take care of his own gun, do you know how many people will be harmed by this?
If Shuichi Akai didn't know Usa's identity, she would have suspected that the FBI had deliberately put the weapon into Jiang Xia's hands in order to cause trouble for the organization.
Vermouth: "..." Damn FBI... No, I have to tell Gin about this as soon as possible. Gin has a lot of mission lists, and there may be mission targets that Uzo is interested in. I have to ask him to bring more to exchange.
Just as she was thinking about it, Jiang Xia looked her up and down, his eyes stopped on her, revealing a thoughtful expression.
Vermouth was forced to come back to her senses. She looked back, her eyes suspicious but slightly alert: "?"
After looking at each other for a moment, she saw Jiang Xia raise his hand... and then hooked his finger at her again, the same action as before.
"?!" Alarm bells suddenly rang in Vermouth's heart.
However, whether it was curiosity or the desire to survive, she had no choice but to hesitate for a moment, then grit her teeth and move closer again.
This time, Jiang Xia took two slow steps and changed positions with her, then quietly pulled open the other side of her clothes.
Vermouth looked carefully and found that her bad premonition came true.
——There was another gun on the other side, this time it was a Browning M1935. If I remember correctly, this is the model that Vodka often uses.
Vermouth: "..."
