Chapter 2635 2647 [Reasons for being busy] Ask for monthly tickets (づど)
Just as he finished drinking vodka, his cell phone suddenly vibrated. Gin, who was driving, suddenly had a bad feeling.
Glancing down, I saw that it was indeed Uzo calling.
Gin moved his thumb, and his fingertips instinctively hovered over the hang-up button. But thinking of the consequences of refusing to answer calls and messages in the past...
After a moment of silence, the fallen finger finally adjusted its direction and answered the phone.
"Now that Vodka is gone, my life is going to be boring again." A familiar voice came from the receiver. The young cadre on the other side sighed and arrogantly hinted, "What tasks do you have recently? You are idle anyway, why not let me help you."
Gin: “…” It seems like there’s nothing serious going on. I really shouldn’t have answered this call.
But now that the call had been answered, it would be a waste not to say something, so Gin said, "Continue to be a good detective," and hung up.
…
On the other side, Jiang Xia looked at the phone screen that automatically exited the call interface and sighed sadly: "He doesn't even want the help that comes to his door. He deserves to be so busy every day."
The ghosts recalled the rare smell of alcohol and murderous aura recently, and nodded resentfully in sympathy.
But if Gin didn't tell them, they couldn't pry out the task list remotely. Seeing that the night was getting late, Jiang Xia had to give up for the time being and go home to catch up on his sleep.
Before going to bed, he carefully counted the list of his subordinates.
"Okiya Subaru is always going back and forth between these two places, and Akai Shuichi has managed to hold back from looking for him until now... Even the cement barrels buried in Tokyo Bay can't keep their composure as high as his."
Jiang Xia sighed: "The twins are still working as maids outside. If they leave their jobs without permission, they will be fired by their employers... After all, there is only one Hashimoto Maya who is always available. It turns out that such registered brothers are the most useful. It would be great if I could find a few more similar ones."
As he was talking, he thought of vodka again. Unfortunately, this colleague was too resistant to "working as a younger brother to Wuzo". Moreover, Wuzo was a newcomer who had not yet officially come into contact with the organization's affairs, so there seemed to be no reason to ask this busy worker to work under him.
"Let's take a look at what we have in our hands first - I wonder how the Theater Island is going." Jiang Xia turned over while holding the cold ghost, thinking of the island in the middle of the sea and the ancient theater that was moved to the island. "Speaking of which, Vodka seems to be very interested in various magic tricks and circus acrobatics these days... Why not let Hashimoto Maya recruit some magicians to add to the entertainment content of the island in the future?"
…
The other side.
Some secret base of the FBI.
"Mika General Hospital?" James passed by and saw Akai Shuichi's screen, a little confused, "What's wrong with this hospital? Did you rush out just now for this matter?"
Akai Hideya nodded.
Although the FBI adjusted its focus in time and shifted its attention back to Vermouth, who was disguised as Dr. Arata, that was only the focus of others.
——As for himself... compared to Vermouth who is already under surveillance, he certainly wants to catch Uzo's rare and tricky clue more.
However, Wu Zuo hid himself very well and never left any traces. Akai Shuichi thought for a long time before finally finding a solution that was not a solution - paying attention to places with abnormal murder rates.
This method cannot be said to be very good, because as a big city with a population of tens of millions and a fast pace of life, people here have occasional frictions, which has led to many murders that are either sudden or premeditated.
Shuichi Akai failed several times because of this, but finally, hard work paid off and he got a clue that might be useful through this stupid method.
"Have you watched the news?" When Shuichi Akai heard James' question, he did not answer directly, but instead pulled up a news case that was not very popular and asked him to check.
James finished reading it quickly, pushed up his glasses and clicked his tongue twice: "This patient is so unlucky. He was framed by the psychiatrist he trusted... I'm afraid his condition will get worse."
As he said this, he flipped through the news, wanting to see the unlucky guy who had been fooled for two or three nights. However, after looking through all the pictures, he couldn't find the figure.
"Don't look for him. He will definitely try his best to avoid appearing on camera." Akai Shuichi looked at his boss's actions and quickly guessed what his colleague was doing. He said, "I just took advantage of the chaos to go to the hospital to inquire about his condition. According to the doctor's description, this unfortunate mental patient has a broad chin, a burly figure, wears a pair of sunglasses everywhere, and has a slightly overbite appearance..."
"Why does it sound so familiar?" James listened to this description, and a figure suddenly popped up in his mind. He asked in surprise, "Could it be vodka?!"
Akai Hide nodded.
James was even more surprised. He couldn't think too much about it. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was weird. "He, he... Putting aside other things, why did he go to the psychiatric department of Mihua General Hospital? Is there something wrong with his mind?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he denied this speculation again: "No, according to the organization's style of doing things, if this is true, they will not let an uncontrollable patient run around. They will definitely control him and then treat or kill him depending on the situation."
"That's right." Akai Shuichi, "So Vodka must have another purpose for appearing there - maybe to make a connection, or maybe a trader had an accident in the hospital by mistake, and Vodka had to go find that person's lost mission item... These cannot be confirmed for the time being, but what is certain is that he stayed in the hospital for so many days, and there must be some traces that cannot be concealed."
James looked at the ace in front of him, and remembered that he had just returned from the hospital, and he was delighted: "What did you find out?"
Shuichi Akai: "According to the nurses, when Vodka was in the hospital, he paid close attention to news about magic and circus. Someone even saw him holding some simple props and studying magic techniques carefully."
James: “……?”
This is an important clue.
He was worried, but he couldn't discourage his ace's enthusiasm. So he scratched his head and commented dryly: "This guy's hobby is quite unique."
Akai Shuichi shook his head. "Although the cadres of the organization do have their own quirks, what Vodka saw in the hospital were some elementary and introductory things. Rather than appreciating the subtleties of the techniques, he seemed to be more concerned with how to understand and crack these techniques."
"Also..." Akai Shuichi thought of another thing, "When I was in contact with Okiya Subaru, I saw a dark cloud snow cat near him many times. According to Okiya Subaru, it was Usa's cat. That cat is very spiritual, and every move seems to have been specially trained."
