Chapter 2486 2498 [Working Bourbon]
In any case, in the end, the three organizational cadres gathered together in the hospital.
Jiang Xia didn't seem to notice the subtle atmosphere between the three people, or maybe he noticed it but didn't say anything considerately. He turned to ask the doctor next to him: "Can we see Miss Maya?"
"Of course." The doctor nodded. Jiang Xia didn't look like a bad person. He even paid for the amnesiac's medical fee. There was no reason to hide it. He took the initiative to point the way, "It's in that ward."
A group of people walked over and pushed the door open.
In the spacious ward, a short-haired woman was leaning silently on the bed with a melancholy expression.
"Ms. Maya?" Jiang Xia walked over. "I'm the passerby who brought you to the hospital. How do you feel now?"
The woman suspected to be named "Mayo" raised her head when she heard this. She had heard the general situation from the doctor, so she was not afraid of these enthusiastic passers-by who suddenly came in, even though, uh... even though the appearances of two of them were really scary.
Maya glanced at the faces of several people, lowered her head and rubbed her eyes, and finally looked at Jiang Xia. She said weakly: "My head hurts a little, but it shouldn't be a big deal. Thank you."
"You're welcome. It's just a piece of cake." Jiang Xia pulled over a stool and sat down next to the bed. "I met you on the overpass near Qiyuan Street. Do you remember when you lost your memory? - Your condition was very bad at the time. You were staggering when you walked. The place where you hit your head should be not far from there."
Maya frowned, trying to process his words.
Next to him, Vodka looked at Jiang Xia who was sitting casually, and then looked at Amuro Toru who was still standing next to him like himself. A question mark slowly appeared on his forehead: "..." Doesn't this Bourbon guy think that there is something wrong with his position in the Amuro Detective Agency?
As he was thinking, Amuro Toru spoke after thinking for a while. He said to the woman on the bed, "You look very strong. Maybe you have the habit of exercising or working out. In addition, there are some old linear marks on your fingertips... Maybe you used to work in some assembly line factory that needed to use thin ropes?"
Vodka: "..." Why are you still helping out? Where is your dignity as a boss? At this time, what you should do is teach that kid a lesson, such as pulling him up by his collar and then sitting on the stool!
Although one onlooker was distracted secretly, overall, everyone's attention was still focused on the fact that the amnesiac was found.
Amuro Toru is indeed an elite intelligence officer who is also known as a detective, public security officer, and organizational cadre. A word he said casually seemed to touch a nerve of Maya.
The woman's originally calm expression suddenly turned into horror. She pressed her head in pain: "It hurts so much... I can't remember, I can't remember!"
Vodka: "..." If you can't remember, then don't think about it. Although I don't know what you did before, my experience and understanding of Uzo tell me that the moment you remember will be almost the moment you take your final bow on the Uzo stage... Then I'll have to stay away from you.
While daydreaming, Vodka took out his cell phone and quietly started writing something.
…
The enthusiastic high school detective is still working hard for the poor amnesiac woman.
Jiang Xia asked: "Do you have any items with you? If you don't mind, show them to me, maybe I can find something."
Maya's headache eased a little. She nodded tiredly and leaned into her bag to look for her clothes.
“That seems to be all.”
After a while, Maya found a piece of torn paper and a dark-colored puzzle piece. She looked at the two things in confusion and handed them to Jiang Xia.
Ireland looked at this scene, his eyes slightly changed: "..."Where's the wallet? Where's the phone? Where's the keys? Where's the daily necessities? ——Who would not bring those daily necessities, but put such strange things on their body?
"From this, it can be seen that this matter is indeed related to that guy. And if it's true as expected, I already know where this woman lost her memory."
Ireland was thinking rapidly in his mind, but his expression remained calm. He glanced at the scraps of paper in Jiang Xia's hand, looked at the English words on them, and acted in a way that suited his foreign identity: "This is the Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 5, Verse 3."
Jiang Xia nodded, obviously having recognized him. He looked at Maye: "Since you dare to tear up the Bible, you are probably not a Christian..." As he spoke, a person suddenly flashed through his mind.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Xia added, "But that's not necessarily the case."
——Just like his new subordinate Hashimoto Maya. Mr. Hashimoto seems to be a devout Christian, Buddhist, and Shinto shrine believer at the same time... But if necessary, Jiang Xia has no doubt that he will tear up the Bible to use as notes, and maybe even tear off the Buddhist beads to use as projectiles.
While thinking, he looked at the torn Bible page that Maye was carrying, and soon discovered the problem.
"You probably tore off this piece of paper and used it as a notepad." Jiang Xia pointed to the blank space above the title, where there was a faint mark. "9.13 'Last Supper' - did you write this down?"
Maya hesitated: "I don't quite remember."
Amuro Toru looked at the two words and couldn't help but frowned - "The Last Supper", although it cannot be ruled out that the person who wrote it down had some associations after reading the Bible, but it must be admitted that this word is easy to make people have many bad associations.
Jiang Xia didn't pay much attention to this. The very active detective had already made other inferences based on the Bible: "Tear off the paper at hand to record. This usually happens when you suddenly hear some news, especially when you are on the phone."
"That is to say, there should be a Bible at the place where you make the phone call. And it is most likely not your own home - otherwise if you want to read the Bible, you won't tear it up, and if you don't want to read it, you probably won't put the Bible in such a convenient place."
Amuro Toru thought about this and soon came up with an idea. He took the paper from Jiang Xia, flicked his finger to check the material: "The quality is good, it should be something in a high-end hotel room - I saw it when I was working part-time before."
Jiang Xia thought about how often Toru Amuro worked part-time: "...Do you remember which store you saw him in?"
"Of course." After a pause, Amuro Toru continued, "But when I say 'seen', I mean I've seen Bibles placed in hotel rooms, not specifically this kind of Bible."
