Chapter 2764: 2776 [Passing by Huiyuan Ai]
Amuro Toru suddenly made eye contact with Jiang Xia: "..."
At this moment, he suddenly wished his skin could be darker so that he could completely blend into the shadow behind the door.
Unfortunately, Jiang Xia had obviously recognized him, and judging from his expression, the employee was not surprised at all at this moment - that is to say, Jiang Xia had recognized him long before he turned around, and probably had been staring at him quietly for a while.
Facing that gaze, Toru Amuro felt his head getting bigger: Why is it so difficult to quietly steal a programmer from the Black Organization?
However, the next moment, he actually saw Jiang Xia raise his hand and stroke his lips, making a gesture of silence - this rare sensible employee nodded slightly at him, as if encouraging him to do whatever he wanted.
Toru Amuro: "...?"
The sun really rose from the west. He thought Jiang Xia would definitely invite him over to sit down and have a few drinks, but he didn't expect...
But it’s better this way.
Amuro Toru was even more worried that Jiang Xia would change his mind, so he quickly walked into the employee passage and took out his cell phone to send an email to Jiang Xia:
[I have something important to do. Leave here immediately, and keep an eye on that annoying kid next to you, don't let him come over to bother you.]
Not long after, the phone buzzed and Jiang Xia's reply came:
[Okay, I'll go find Conan and take him away.]
It was clearly a promise, but Toru Amuro suddenly paused: "..." That kid actually avoided his tunnel trap and ran here?
I don't know why, but I always have a bad feeling...
…
Conan, who "didn't know where he had gone", was still hiding behind the green plants, eavesdropping on the strange middle-aged man's phone call.
After Endo Keigo shouted that just now, he immediately realized that he could not control his emotions.
He smiled and nodded to apologize, then picked up the phone and walked aside, arguing with the other party in a low voice: "Why did you terminate the transaction? I have already prepared the money, and I have not called the police at all... You, don't hang up! Let me hear my son's voice first!"
Conan: “…”
Wait, where's the dirty deal?
How did it turn into a kidnapping case?
...But it seems that no one has stipulated that Toru Amuro cannot get involved in kidnapping cases. On the contrary, the boss looks like an experienced worker in this field.
Conan certainly would not give up the case that was put in front of him. Seeing the middle-aged man walking out of the store with his briefcase under his arm, he immediately trotted back to Jiang Xia and said, "I have something to do. I have to leave for a while."
Having said that, he turned and ran...
Then he was easily picked up by one hand.
"Your skateboard has so much water in it, how can you still catch up with him?" Jiang Xia stood up and predicted his actions again. "Although I didn't hear some of his words clearly, from the look of him, he must have encountered a kidnapping case. Let's follow him and see."
He still had to give his boss face. As a high school detective who didn't want to be too involved with the organization, he should leave as soon as possible.
...But leaving is one thing, and whether to come back is another.
Jiang Xia carried Conan and deliberately walked past the surveillance camera, leaving humbly with the attitude of a model employee.
…
Keigo Endo, who failed to pay the ransom, didn't dare to run around with large sums of cash.
Although he was extremely unwilling and worried about his son's safety, since the kidnappers were unwilling to make a deal, he could only take a taxi and return home dejected.
Ten minutes later.
Three other figures, one big and two small, set foot in this area.
When she went out to buy groceries, Huihara Ai ran into Jiang Xia and the others. She yawned and looked up at the sign of the house across the street: "A single-family house that has been converted into a dental clinic... What are you doing here? Do you have a toothache from eating too many desserts? I guess I have to make less sweets in the future."
"No, it's good like this now." Jiang Xia withdrew her unnecessary thoughts. He looked down at the fake child who was also prone to incidents. "I didn't expect to meet you, but it's better like this."
"?" Huiyuan Ai was a little confused, "What do you mean?"
Jiang Xia: "The dentist's son was kidnapped. Under the threat of the kidnappers, he did not call the police, but I think he needs a little help now."
Huiyuan Ai understood immediately and whispered, "Most of the time, kidnapping is committed by acquaintances. If the kidnapper is hiding nearby and happens to see someone looking for him, things will be troublesome... So you need to find a legitimate reason to contact him?"
Jiang Xia nodded, took out the mask and put it on his face.
Then he pulled the two fake children out of their hiding place and headed towards the dental clinic: "The rest is up to you - start crying."
Huihara Ai looked at the passers-by and her face turned red: "I, I..."
Before she could say anything, Conan screamed and threw his head back and cried, "Ah! It hurts! My tooth hurts!"
Haibara Ai instinctively moved to the side, trying to stay away from him: "..." Your acting is terrible. Don't tell others that you are the son of the world-famous actress Yukiko Kudo.
However, when it comes to acting, Haibara Ai suddenly had an inspiration: When it comes to acting, it is also important to substitute the right identity. Who says she can only play a child with a toothache?
Thinking of this, she came up with an idea and turned to Conan: "Don't cry, my brother is already helping you find a doctor."
Conan: “?”
The shout he made was clearly intended to serve as a starting point, just waiting for Haibara Ai to join the duet...but why did this guy take the initiative to go off on another tangent, leaving him alone to embarrass himself?
Conan, who had just backstabbed Hattori Heiji, felt the deep malice from his companion.
Fortunately, the kind-hearted Jiang Xia didn't let him embarrass himself for too long.
The high school detective walked over quickly and rang the doorbell of the dental clinic like a good brother who was concerned about his children.
After a long while, a listless voice came from the electronic doorbell: "Who is this?"
Jiang Xia: "Hello, I have a 7-year-old patient who has a terrible toothache, and other clinics are too far away. Can you help him?"
"The 7-year-old patient..." This child, who was almost the same age as his own son, and the background sound of his screams in pain touched Keigo Endo's heart.
Although he was in no mood to open the shop, he still sighed and said, "Come in."
…
The three of them successfully sneaked into Endo's clinic.
Keigo Endo looked at the two children in front of him with mixed feelings, and said to the crying little boy, "Don't be afraid, little friend. Come with me to the clinic."
Jiang Xia pressed Conan's head and manually muted this classmate who was too immersed in the role.
