Chapter 2781 2793 [The murdered Mao Lilan]
Mao Lilan was relieved to see that her innocent classmate was successfully cleared of suspicion.
However, the mental relaxation made her dizziness more severe. In a daze, Mao Lilan seemed to hear a woman's voice. The beautiful voice was a little heavy and vicissitudes, and she whispered: "Are there really gods in this world?"
"An angel never smiles at me, not even once."
Several figures crossed back and forth, and suddenly, Mao Lilan remembered - the long-haired man wearing a knitted hat, the woman with a sad smile holding an umbrella, and a bunch of messy lights and shadows... These were not illusions, but an experience she had when she went to New York a year ago, which was hard to tell whether it was bad or wonderful.
The moment the memory came flooding back, Mao Lilan felt dizzy and fell to the ground.
“Ah——!” The crowd that had not yet dispersed screamed, “Another dead one! Where are the police? Why are they walking so fast? Come back quickly!”
On the second floor, Vodka, who was about to slip away in the chaos, was startled and turned back suddenly.
Seeing the next "dead person" lying on the ground, he was stunned: How could it be her? !
"...That's right." Vodka took a deep breath, and based on the principle of appearance is reasonable, he forced himself to understand the situation in front of him, "Although Wuzo often uses disposable props, no one stipulates that he can't use the people around him as a knife.
"And that Maori lady was very kind among the people of Uzo. It must be because she unconsciously did a lot of things that hindered Uzo's performance, so she finally wore out Uzo's patience and was killed."
"As expected, there is no room for pure whiteness around darkness. I thought before that this girl might be his weakness. But now it seems... I thought too much."
While Vodka was studying the small Uzo team, he was feeling emotional in his heart.
Suzuki Sonoko and Conan rushed to the person lying on the ground: "Xiaolan! What's wrong with you?!"
Vodka: “…” Haha, at such a young age, their acting skills are better than the other.
He lowered the brim of his hat and was about to sneak away quietly, but at this moment, he heard Suzuki Sonoko scream: "Her forehead is so hot!"
Vodka: “Hmm?”
...The line is wrong, shouldn’t it be “Her mouth tastes of bitter almonds”?
…
In the hall.
Jiang Xia checked on Mao Lilan's condition and looked around: "It's hard to get a taxi on this street. Who has a free car? We need to take her to the hospital as soon as possible."
In the crowd, Shuichi Akai looked at the girl lying on the ground, with long, smooth hair and a gentle face who looked like Miyano Akemi, and his heart was moved.
…but the legs didn’t move.
Of course, Shuichi Akai didn't come here just to eat today: the clues from a while ago have not yet produced any results - until now, he is still visiting the students of the dead magician who has many students all over the world.
When he passed by here on the way, he suddenly saw a car in the parking lot. The model and license plate of the car... looked like the type commonly used by the organization.
"..." Akai Shuichi stopped immediately, and based on the principle of not trying it before it's too late, he wanted to install a transmitter and a bug on the car.
However, before taking action, he suddenly discovered that the parking lot was covered with surveillance cameras and there was a police station not far away.
“…”
Recalling the painful experiences in the past, Shuichi Akai suddenly suspected that as soon as he installed the things, the bug and transmitter would be removed by the enthusiastic passers-by. At the same time, a group of policemen swarmed out and sent him to the police station as if he was an outlaw.
Akai Shuichi: "..." Forget it. If you think about it carefully, for those cunning enough members of the organization, eavesdropping devices and transmitters will not work at all - they will be discovered long before any useful information is exposed.
And if he encountered a member of the organization who was not so cunning... Such a guy probably didn't have a high status, so what's the point of arresting him? What they knew might not be as much as his bottle of "rye whiskey".
With this in mind, Shuichi Akai quickly changed his plan - instead of risking a day trip to the police station to do such a useless thing, it would be better to look around and take a gamble on catching the organization member who was wandering around.
…
After searching on the street for a while, Shuichi Akai suddenly heard some commotion in this Chinese restaurant.
He then followed the sound and skillfully blended into the crowd...then he saw a few familiar faces out of the corner of his eye.
Familiar screams, familiar murders, familiar multiple-choice questions...only this time, Jiang Xia was also included in the options.
The innocent high school student detective was attacked, but fortunately he managed to escape from the conspiracy with his own strength. However, soon after, Jiang Xia's female high school student friend was also unfortunately caught.
At this moment, Shuichi Akai wanted to help.
But with this undisguised face, thinking of the organization member lurking nearby, and Uzo who might exist deeper behind the scenes: he was silent for a moment, and finally stopped rationally - the probability of losing his life due to a fever is much lower than the probability of being targeted by the organization and losing his life because of "having an intersection with Akai Shuichi".
…
When Shuichi Akai was calmly weighing the pros and cons, he suddenly noticed that Jiang Xia was looking at him.
After a moment, the high school student seemed to think for a moment, then suddenly raised his voice to the other corner and said, "Mr. Yamada, can you take us to the hospital? I remember there is one less than 3 kilometers across the bridge."
Akai Shuichi: "!"
Conan, who was concentrating on watching Mao Lilan, suddenly turned around: "?!" Who? Who is Jiang Xia calling? ?
Vodka, who was about to sneak to the side door: "..."
... Bastard Uzo, I was only two steps away from escaping, why did you shout at this moment instead of earlier? I, I will fight you! !
While cursing in his heart, "Mr. Yamada" turned around reluctantly.
Then he showed a surprised expression: "Mr. Jiang Xia? What happened? Why did Miss Mao Li fall down? I was in the bathroom just now and didn't pay attention to the outside."
Next to him, Shuichi Akai looked at the sudden appearance of Vodka, took a step back silently, and dived deep into the crowd.
——His previous guess was correct, there were indeed members of the organization nearby.
The only surprise was that the person turned out to be Vodka.
"Jiang Xia actually asked him for help... Although compared with other cadres, Vodka is indeed easy to talk to, but after all, he is still a member of the organization."
Akai Shuichi sighed inwardly: "Jiang Xia is still too impulsive. He may have mistakenly thought that I wanted to help, so in order to prevent me from implicating his classmates, he spoke up first to remind me that Vodka was nearby, and solved the car problem by the way.
"This is indeed killing two birds with one stone, but..."
