Chapter 246 Uzo's Psychological Assessment 1 Request for monthly pass (つヮ)
Jiang Xia saw two familiar names on the list of sharks that Gin gave him.
Now that one has been marked with an "X", the other one may be available soon.
When he reached the door of his house, Jiang Xia took out the newspaper he had subscribed from the mailbox and opened the first page. As expected, it was about the serial murder case that caused the bombing of the Crystal Restaurant.
Jiang Xia simply browsed through it, and then was relieved to find that although he was forced to appear on the stage this time, the focus of his appearance was finally not on his speed in solving cases, but on exposing his "weakness" that his thinking would slow down after a car accident.
This should be effective.
For example, some murderers who really want to find a famous detective to testify but are afraid of being found out can invite him over first, then create a car accident or something, and then commit the crime with confidence...
Jiang Xia put down the newspaper, went out again with a little anticipation, went to the detective agency, and looked through the mailbox, looking for any expedited letters of commission from a distant place.
But it couldn't be found.
It was a rare occasion that I met Toru Amuro at the Amuro Detective Agency.
Toru Amuro chatted with him casually for a few words and left him a box of gold-packaged tranquilizing oral liquid, which he said was a benefit given by his boss at the place where he worked, and the agency couldn't leave it there, so they let him take it home to drink.
After Toru Amuro left, Jiang Xia left disappointedly with the oral liquid.
No rush, it’s only the first day.
We always have to give potential criminals some time to see the news and consider. In addition, perhaps some bold and decisive people have already sent the letter, but it's still on the way.
Being a psychic requires patience. As long as you are willing to wait, the invitation to a serial murder case will always come.
Then Jiang Xia waited for another day, but still got nothing.
In the afternoon, he continued to check his mailbox, but just as he went out, his cell phone suddenly vibrated.
It's the organization's special machine.
He took out his cell phone and found a message from Gin, asking him to meet at the Hegson Bar on the B2 floor of the Beihu Building at 6 pm.
Jiang Xia had just seen the address clearly when the screen of his mobile phone suddenly flashed.
The information was deleted remotely by Vodka's black technology.
This method of crushing information is Gin's normal operation.
but……
Jiang Xia was secretly condemning that he had deleted the message too quickly, wondering what if he hadn't seen it. But the next second, his phone vibrated again.
The new text message was still from Gin.
The content has not changed, but the address is slightly different - the Hegson Bar on B2 has been changed to a sushi restaurant on the 3rd floor.
Jiang Xia: “…”
The class is gone in an instant.
In fact, he still thinks the bar is better.
…
Fortunately, for a pragmatic psychic, location is not important, as long as there are ghosts and murderous auras to pick up.
What surprised Jiang Xia a little was that it had not been long since Gin assigned the five people to him, but he already had a new task so soon.
As expected, in addition to Conan, the organization also has a powerful ghost-hunting guidance machine.
However, when he arrived at the place, Jiang Xia found that the situation was not quite what he expected.
——In the past, Gin would directly give the kill list and precautions, and then let Jiang Xia go immediately after he finished reading the information.
Compared with his previous efficiency, today, for some reason, Gin was still reluctant to give him the task.
The leader remained silent the whole time, flipping through the documents in his hand in silence. He did not speak until the sushi was served.
...This is not only abnormal, it's a bit weird. In the time it takes to stare at each other in silence, I could have killed a dozen traitors.
Jiang Xia then glanced at Vodka. This man must know what Gin was thinking.
However, Vodka kept a straight face and looked straight ahead, not giving him a chance to look at her.
Jiang Xia could only look away and guess to himself: Could it be that something serious went wrong during the assassination of Asahi Shengyi this time?
But if that were the case, Gin would have fired a volley of bullets at him long ago. It would be impossible for him to sit here face to face with him peacefully and even order three servings of sushi.
More importantly, the murderous aura on Gin did not increase, and remained at the usual level - this was not the attitude Gin should have when something went wrong on a mission.
It was awkward to just sit there doing nothing. After hesitating for a moment, seeing that it was already time for dinner, Jiang Xia tried to reach out to the sushi.
No one stopped him, and no one said anything.
He then randomly picked a sushi with a nice color and took a bite. The fish was sweet and juicy, and the rice grains were distinct. The taste was worthy of the high-end decoration of this restaurant.
It is worthy of being a sushi restaurant riding on top of the mysterious Hegson Bar.
…
Jiang Xia temporarily ignored the two and concentrated on eating dinner. Across from him, Gin was reviewing the evaluation materials that Vermouth had sent him.
To be honest, in Gin's opinion, those evaluation methods were a bit rough and lacked details, which made him suspect that Vermouth was actually a half-baked layman.
However, there were some items that seemed to make sense, and since Vermouth had always been reliable in serious matters, Gin decided to do as she said and see how the situation went.
Therefore, from the moment Jiang Xia stepped into the door of this private room, Gin had already started to check each item according to his own understanding. If there was a problem, he would immediately take him away for treatment.
He recalled the watch he had seen before.
First of all, the mood is irritable...unlikely.
There was a long gap between when Uzo came in and when he started eating. During that time, Gin and Vodka deliberately refused to communicate. But Uzo never showed any of the anxious little movements that Vermouth listed, and he was not just in a daze, but was observing him and Vodka in a very rational way.
This performance is not inferior to that of other normal members of the organization, and even surpasses it. According to Gin's understanding of some of his colleagues, many of them, if they were in the same situation, would either be sweating profusely or banging their heads on the table, asking what was going on.
After finishing the first item, Gin quickly started thinking about the next one.
Loss of appetite, even anorexia…are also ruled out.
The sushi in this restaurant is not served separately. Three portions of sushi are delivered to the private room one after another and all placed on the table.
Gin watched as Uzo ate a lot of his and Vodka's portions, and it was obvious that Uzo was not eating mechanically to maintain his body functions - he was really eating normally, even picking colors and skipping the yellow and green ones.
