Chapter 2746-2758 [Conan's List]
The previous nonsense can be ignored. Curacao's eyes moved and his attention quickly focused on the most suspicious part.
——XXX
The familiar shape quickly reminded her of the lists of people to be killed that she had handled - every dead person would be crossed out and disappear without a trace.
"He wants to kill someone? Three people?" Curacao used all his analytical skills to try to parse this alarming email. "Just kill them, why send it to me? Am I one of these three people? Or is he asking for a mission list in a subtle way?"
"... Never mind. Just pretend I didn't see it like before. I'm on a business trip anyway. No matter how terrible that guy's stage is, it's too far away to reach here."
Curacao quickly adjusted his state and tried to delete this message with a sinister aura from his memory.
…
The two detectives were lost in thought, and it seemed that they could not come up with any results for the time being.
Mao Lilan did not dwell on this, she thought of another thing: "Speaking of which, compared to before, Teacher Judy seems to be more relaxed in class recently."
Suzuki Sonoko nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "When she first came, she was very serious, even more serious than that 50-something English teacher, but now she is becoming more and more approachable, and she even teaches common English usage in class... What do you think, could it be that she has encountered too many murders and feels that life is impermanent, so she decided to enjoy life while she is still alive?"
"Are you whispering about the teacher behind your back?" A voice suddenly came from behind.
"?!" The two high school girls were startled and turned around to see Judy looking at them with a smile. The foreign teacher patted their shoulders and asked Mao Lilan, "Have you figured out the meaning of 'X'?"
Mao Lilan said honestly: "No."
Judy laughed and offered a bad idea: "You can send a message to the person you like and ask him to guess - if he guesses correctly, you can give him your X as a reward."
Suzuki Sonoko sneered.
Mao Lilan: “…” It sounds weird.
Conan: "?" What? What on earth is X? You are playing a riddle, why don't you explain it clearly!
The fake elementary school student rarely felt the hate of the riddler. He wanted to shake Judy and Suzuki Sonoko's collars to make them spit out the answers, but looking at his weak, pitiful and helpless elementary school body, in the end, he could only anxiously start a new round of brainstorming.
Although Mao Lilan didn't understand, she felt a little embarrassed. She quickly changed the subject and said to Judy: "Come to think of it, I remember you lived in another direction. How did you get here?"
Suzuki Sonoko also teased: "You used to leave in a hurry after school, and we couldn't catch you when we wanted to invite you for tea. Why did you take the initiative to talk to us today?"
Judy: “…” It’s because I’ve been embroiled in cases and extremely unlucky since I came to your side… But times have changed, so there’s no need to mention these things anymore.
She brushed off the question: "Oh, I would love to have tea with you, but I just moved to Tokyo and I want to walk around and experience the local customs and practices. As for today - there was a water leak at home a few days ago, and many things were damaged. I have to go to the department store to buy some new ones to fix them."
Of course this is a lie.
In fact, not long ago, she was called in by James for a serious talk. The boss gave her new instructions - various evidences showed that Wu Zuo had noticed her again for some reason, and at this time the cadre hiding in the shadows was approaching, and she had to play the role of "English teacher at Teitan Junior High School" to life without any flaws.
...So Judy couldn't go to the base recently, and it was not easy for her to contact her colleagues. She could only buy some things in the rented apartment and actually live there.
After school today, she planned to go to the department store to buy some daily necessities. Just as she walked down a street, she saw several familiar figures.
The moment four figures, three tall and one short, came into view, Judy paused and wanted to turn around and leave.
However, remembering James' instructions, she finally gritted her teeth and braked, walked over like a normal teacher, and greeted her lovely students as if nothing had happened.
…
Suzuki Sonoko heard her words and said: "Department store..."
Judy nodded expectantly, praying that she would say, "It's not on our way, so we'll leave first. Bye, teacher."
However, the next moment, a sweet but cold voice interrupted this vision. Suzuki Sonoko snapped her fingers and said, "We are just thinking about where to go. In this case, it has been decided that we will go to the department store!"
Judy: “…”
Forget it. According to her previous speculation, Suzuki Sonoko might have some relationship with Usa. Now she is traveling with these four children... just thinking of it as collecting intelligence.
——This is a contribution to the organization, and everything she has done will eventually be rewarded.
After comforting herself in her heart, Judy smiled and tried hard to join the young team.
…
Of course, the fun of shopping is not just about shopping.
They strolled around for a while, bought a few drinks and sat down in the rest area.
Judy took a sip of her coffee and asked the two high school girls, "By the way, have you ever encountered a pervert around here?"
"Pervert?" Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan looked at each other after hearing this unfamiliar word, and then looked at Teacher Judy, "Why do you ask that?"
Judy sighed, "I heard that school girls in Teitan are often harassed by perverts when riding on the train or bus."
"Is there such a thing?" Mao Lilan asked in surprise, "We two have never encountered it, maybe because we mostly walk?"
"It's okay if we meet him." Suzuki Sonoko snorted proudly, raised her hands, and placed them on the two people beside her, one on the left and one on the right. "If he ran into us, he must have been born in the wrong family."
Conan thought of the doors that were kicked in by Mao Lilan, and the prisoners who were struggling to move towards the police after being knocked by Jiang Xia: "..."
Judy choked a bit, but she continued, "That being said, you still have to be careful. Some guys are very cunning. They will always linger near you, then take advantage of a gap and sneak in. These guys are much scarier than ordinary criminals. If you encounter similar suspicious people, or find that a certain face keeps appearing around you, be sure to tell the teacher as soon as possible."
"…repeated suspicious faces?"
Conan took a sip of the juice, and various images appeared in his mind: an old man who had been taken away by the police, a school doctor in a white coat, a blond and dark-skinned man, a tall man wearing a knitted hat, another tall man wearing a knitted hat and sunglasses and a string of cross Buddha amulets...
