Chapter 2690 2702 [Found a good person] Ask for monthly ticket (`)
Mao Lilan shook her head and unconsciously imitated Jiang Xia, speculating like a detective:
"Although it's a murder case, you didn't describe the specific process. In other words, Teacher Judy is probably not afraid of the story itself, but after hearing this incident, she associated it with the experience of being involved in a case in the past and remembered the horrible corpse she encountered at that time."
Suzuki Sonoko's eyes twitched slightly, unable to understand: "Then she is too fragile. I have experienced so many cases since I was a child, and I didn't feel scared, right?"
Mao Lilan vaguely felt the same way: she didn't expect that teacher Judy, who looked strong and outgoing, actually had the soul of a little girl who was afraid of murder... But after all, she was their foreign teacher, and the students always talked about her behind her back.
After thinking for a while, Mao Lilan changed the subject: "Let's go to the Dongdi Building tonight. I heard there is a lottery event there. It just so happens that the ingredients at home are almost gone. Let's go there to replenish some supplies. Maybe we can win some good prizes."
Suzuki Sonoko nodded and began to think about what to bring when going out: With Xiaolan's luck... maybe they will go out traveling again soon.
…
After school in the evening, the two girls happily went to the shopping mall together to shop.
On the other side, on the theater island.
A member of the organization was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Hashimoto Maya wanted to go to bed early to adjust her biological clock, so she tossed and turned for a long time. Finally, she sat up with a somersault: "No, I can't go with her after all!"
With Lord Usa's reply, a trip to Hokkaido became inevitable.
On this basis, there are many things to figure out - for example, why did the female magician give him two tickets after recommending the Fantasy Magic Troupe?
"One must be for me, the unlucky guy...who should I give the other one to?" Hashimoto Maya's first reaction was to the lawyer's wife who went with him to persuade the female magician to join the gang.
But after thinking about it... he killed the idea.
"Lord Uzo only said 'go find it' without giving any other details. Perhaps this is actually a test from him."
Maya Hashimoto never forgets what kind of terrible guy he is under: survival of the fittest, which certainly does not only refer to the performance among colleagues, but also includes all his usual actions - if he is not careful, he might become the corpse that is eliminated.
"At first glance, the lawyer's wife seems to be warm-hearted and good-tempered...but her husband and sister, who she lives with day and night, cheated her without hesitation, and those two idiots were completely unaware of her actions. This shows that you can never judge this woman based on superficial signs."
Hashimoto Maya assessed the danger posed by the other party: "She may not be hostile to me, but I actually know nothing about her. This trip to Hokkaido will definitely not be an easy one. It is too dangerous to carry a time bomb with me in an unfamiliar place."
"And if I invite other colleagues to join me...they are not good people either. Not only will they cheat me, they might even steal my sales and say they poached the magician."
One figure after another flashed through his mind, but was ruthlessly eliminated by Maya Hashimoto.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up and a candidate flashed through his mind.
——Jiang Xia!
A powerful and kind detective who will not only not cheat him, but may even rescue him at the critical moment!
"Yeah, who said I can only go with those annoying colleagues?" Hashimoto Maya felt that she had found the correct solution to the problem, and everything became clear to her. "And in another sense, Jiang Xia is also my mission target. Isn't it great to kill two birds with one stone?"
Just do it.
Considering Jiang Xia's busy schedule, Hashimoto Maya did not dare to delay. She picked up her mobile phone and started writing a text message, inviting Jiang Xia to go to Hokkaido to find the Fantasy Magic Troupe.
"According to my observation and experience, detectives are more or less interested in magic, and they especially like to crack magic tricks. Didn't Jiang Xia go to see a magic show not long ago?"
Hashimoto Maya felt very hopeful: "Now that I know there is a superb magic troupe hidden in the city, as long as there is no urgent schedule, Jiang Xia should not mind going out for a walk."
Soon, Maya Hashimoto prepared her message and pressed send with anticipation.
…
East Empire Building.
Jiang Xia was strolling with two classmates he "accidentally met" on the way home from school.
The three of them were standing in front of the lottery table. Mao Lilan nervously reached into the box, fumbled among the rolling balls for a moment, and grabbed one.
"That's it."
She took out the ball and placed it on a tray beside her. The sleepy lottery staff took a casual glance and was about to reach for a tissue. However, when he saw the color of the ball, he suddenly stopped and his eyes began to bulge like two copper bells.
"Special..." He stood up, picked up the bell beside him and rang it, "Special Prize!"
Jiang Xia: “…” Xiaolan’s performance is as stable as ever.
Mao Lilan was also a little surprised, but not too surprised. She happily took the prize handed over by the staff and glanced down: "Hokkaido Shikotsubahara three-day and two-night family package... Eh? Wait, Shikotsubahara?"
Seeing these words, her voice of surprise got stuck in her throat. Mao Lilan froze for a moment and couldn't help asking the staff: "Is this a haunted house experience ticket?"
"Of course not." The staff shook their heads repeatedly, pretending that their prizes were of high value. "It's just that the name sounds a bit strange. I heard from the boss that the scenery there is very nice, the air is fresh, and many traditional art troupes stop there to perform. No matter from which angle you look at it, it's a great place for a vacation."
Suzuki Sonoko: "Why is it called this name?"
Staff: "Well... I heard that some scenic spots deliberately give themselves some impressive names in order to attract attention and customers. For example, this Bone Field, isn't it easy to remember at a glance?"
Jiang Xia nodded quietly in agreement: the person who came up with the name was quite talented, and after seeing it I really wanted to go over there.
Mao Lilan always felt that this name was not very auspicious, but since she had drawn it, and this long-distance trip was expensive, she couldn't bear to waste it anyway.
"We'll leave the day after tomorrow." She looked down at the detailed information of the prize, "I remember that there will be a concert of Miss Yoko the day after tomorrow, and my dad will definitely go to the concert - in this case, let's go to Hokkaido together."
But having said that, new problems arise.
——This family package is two normal tickets plus one child ticket. But there are three of them...
Suzuki Sonoko rolled up her sleeves and looked at the staff: "How many special prizes do you have here?"
