Chapter 275 Jiang Xia Don’t Want It
Although Mitsuhiko and Genta are afraid of Jiang Xia, they also want to save their classmates.
However, the two of them were a little slow to react and were beaten to it by Haibara Ai.
When Mitsuhiko, a precocious child, saw Haibara Ai on the skateboard, he spent a second worrying about the inappropriate physical contact between men and women, but he still went up and hugged her waist. Before the struggle in his mind could come to an end, Conan had already sped away on the skateboard, leaving a cloud of dust in his face.
Mitsuhiko coughed and choked a few times.
Yuanta was blocked by Mitsuhiko and was also unable to catch the skateboard.
The two people who were left behind looked at each other, and after a moment, they whispered: "...Should we call the police first?"
…
While chasing after Sumei on a skateboard, Conan's face became paler and paler.
At first, he was worried about Ayumi and Jiang Xia wholeheartedly.
But halfway through the walk, all he could think about was “pain, pain, pain, pain.”
——In order to avoid falling off the speeding skateboard, Haibara Ai grabbed his shoulders. And now, those hands have unconsciously pinched Conan's flesh. Half of it is probably because of the speed of the skateboard, and the other half is probably because she is worried about the two acquaintances next to the bloody head.
"Don't think too much." In order to prevent delays in important matters, Conan usually does not comfort people in an emergency. But now, if he does not speak up, he suspects that he will be strangled to death before he catches up with Jiang Xia and the others.
So she could only calmly comfort Huihara Ai: "Don't let the kid lead you astray. You don't know him - Jiang Xia can't be the kidnapper. Ayumi must have made a mistake."
After a pause, he felt that Jiang Xia's face was not really popular and it was hard to make a mistake, so he added: "...or there might be some misunderstanding."
——Since the other three people reacted very synchronously after Ayumi said "Jiang Xia was also in the car", Conan mistakenly classified Haibara Ai's thinking into the same category as Genta and Mitsuhiko, thinking that she also thought that Jiang Xia killed someone.
This is understandable. After all, Haibara Ai had just witnessed Jiang Xia's hobby of beating people a few days ago, and she has not known Jiang Xia for a long time. Most of the time they only ate together. It can be seen that her impression of Jiang Xia is at a stage where it can be easily changed by some things.
The corners of Huiyuan Ai's eyes twitched as she listened, and gradually a fierce light flashed in her eyes: "Jiang Xia would definitely not do such a thing, but..."
...But if it was an organization's mission and Jiang Xia was just helping out, then it would be different.
However, if such words were spoken, Jiang Xia's disguise would definitely be exposed.
Haibara Ai could only take a deep breath: Calm down, don’t be angry with the silly detective.
After stepping on the high-speed skateboard and taking a breath of cool breeze, Haibara Ai's thinking became much clearer.
She said something and silently changed her mind: "...but if someone is coerced, it may not be the case."
When Conan heard this, the image of the prisoners rolling on the ground flashed through his mind for the Nth time, as well as Jiang Xia's fighting power that made him so envious that he wanted to grab him and attach him to himself: "..."
Who can coerce Jiang Xia...
However, on second thought, coercion does not necessarily involve the use of force.
If those despicable criminals used the little girl as a hostage, they might really have a chance of succeeding.
Thinking of this, Conan took out his cell phone and looked at it.
Just now, after being stopped by Haibara Ai from making a phone call, he instead sent a message and asked Jiang Xia to contact him.
However, Jiang Xia hasn't replied until now... I don't know if he didn't see it or his phone was out of battery.
After hesitating for a moment, Conan still took the risk and called Jiang Xia before Haibara Ai could react.
He felt that this call could actually be made.
After all, Conan is just an innocent first-grade student, the kind of person who is least likely to arouse other people's vigilance.
Of course, I had to be careful with my wording during the call. It would be best if Jiang Xia could be aware of Ayumi's situation, but at the same time, I couldn't let any possible bystanders hear the same thing...
…
Jiang Xia was holding a paper firecracker and taking it apart for fun.
When the car stopped at the intersection, the rattling noise of the old car subsided, and he suddenly heard his cell phone ringing.
Toru Amuro also heard it, glanced over with a hint of curiosity, then quickly looked away.
The phone that was ringing was the one I used daily.
Jiang Xia picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID and found that it was Conan calling.
...Rare visitor. The God of Death rarely calls him, but if he does, it usually means that there will be a ghost to pick up soon.
But now, Toru Amuro also has a case. If the two sides conflict, should he follow Toru Amuro to pick up the case, or follow Conan to pick up the case... or should he arrange a schedule first?
It is said that Sayuri Matsumoto's husband who was about to poison was also a rich second-generation. If we find an opportunity to put a sack on him and beat him up, we should be able to quickly eliminate his murderous intent, and there might be enough time.
Jiang Xia looked forward to the future while answering the phone.
Then he was startled by Conan's cute tone.
Conan said sweetly in a childish tone, "Brother Jiang Xia, didn't you agree to make a guest appearance in our town's play? Why haven't you arrived yet? Oh, Ayumi is late too. If she doesn't come, your play will have to be cancelled."
Jiang Xia: “…”
He silently moved the phone a little further away and stared at the screen with a slight vigilance.
...Is Kudo crazy?
Under Toru Amuro's puzzled gaze, Jiang Xia hung up the phone with a blank expression.
Then I started thinking, well, it’s unlikely that Conan is crazy.
If someone suddenly acts like a child on the phone, he must be in trouble.
And Ayumi was specifically mentioned...Conan was kidnapped together with Ayumi?
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia subconsciously glanced at Toru Amuro beside him.
The police should be good at rescuing hostages, although Toru Amuro is not an honest police officer in charge of kidnapping cases, and his expertise may not be suitable...
However, before asking for help, Jiang Xia felt that this idea was not right.
——If Ayumi was really kidnapped, Conan would not have said something like "she is late" just now.
He specifically mentioned Ayumi and put her in the late group together with "Jiang Xia brother", as if Ayumi was closer to him... Wait, speaking of Ayumi...
Jiang Xia suddenly remembered the faint scream he had heard on the road just now. It was as if a flash of lightning passed through his mind, and he suddenly had an idea.
——As a "prophet" who possesses the power of spoilers, he certainly remembers an incident in which someone was hidden in a trunk.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia took the opportunity of putting the phone back to catch the mermaid who was circling around Amuro Toru, trying to find murderous aura on him. He communicated with it in his mind and asked it to go into the trunk and take a look.
In terms of perception, ghosts are extremely sensitive to murderous aura and souls, but they are very average to people. Unless that person is like Gin, who is always full of murderous aura.
