Chapter 2783 2795 [Past]
On the other side, Suzuki Sonoko also noticed the movements of this little kid.
She followed Conan and looked down at her feet in confusion: "What's wrong? Why are you staring at the ground? Did you drop something?"
Conan was so frightened that he said, "…" Shut up! Is this something you can say? What if Vodka finds out?
...But fortunately, I am just an innocent child. It is normal for children to be interested in things on the ground.
Conan said immediately: "Look, Sister Sonoko, the pattern on this floor mat is so beautiful. The driver must have very good taste!"
Vodka: “…” Tsk, it’s so unlucky to be praised by this kid. I’ll burn the foot pad tomorrow.
He was keeping a close eye on Conan's every move, while exuding murderous intent with the sweet smell of vanilla ice cream.
At a distance behind him, the driver of another car was also openly exuding the same murderous aura.
Jiang Xia looked in front and then at the back, put his hand on the car window, and squinted his eyes comfortably: What a happy day, it was indeed right to ask Vodka to be the driver - if he asked Shuichi Akai to help deliver the car, Vodka would definitely turn around and run away, and then he would only be able to pick up some murderous aura with the same smell of alcohol as Gin, and a little bit of colorless murderous aura that occasionally emerged.
But like now, holding back the vodka can bring double the happiness... Sometimes, choice is as important as hard work.
Jiang Xia shook his fingers, feeling that he should have a successful person's goblet in his hand at this moment, with mellow red wine poured into it... Unfortunately, Vodka didn't prepare so many things in the car.
He had no choice but to put his hand down with regret, poking the ghosts, reminding them not to miss this great opportunity and to work hard.
Next to her, Mao Lilan leaned back in her chair, opened her eyes hazily, and looked at the bridge outside the window.
Similar scenes make the memory that was forgotten at some point become clearer.
…
More than twenty minutes later, in a nearby hospital.
Suzuki Sonoko trotted into the inpatient area with a fruit basket and found that Mouri Ran had woken up.
"Recovering so quickly?" Suzuki Sonoko touched her forehead in surprise. Sure enough, it was no longer as hot as it was in the hotel just now.
Jiang Xia opened the fruit basket and placed the fruits on the bedside table.
Just now, after the vehicle arrived at the hospital, Vodka actually also started to go through the formalities.
Conan was suspicious and couldn't help but be wary of whether this guy was after young girls and was eyeing Xiaolan's beauty... But Jiang Xia understood at a glance - Vodka simply wanted to take advantage of the crowd and complex terrain in the hospital to shake off possible pursuit and take the opportunity to escape.
Sure enough, as soon as Mao Lilan was sent to the ward, Vodka disappeared quietly.
Two minutes later, Conan realized that he had run away, and rushed out of the ward to look for him.
Jiang Xia did not follow, but only sent the fast-flying ghost over. He himself stayed in the ward, leaving the vast space to his dear neighbor and dear colleague.
…
It was completely different from the chaos outside, the pursuit and anti-tracking. In the ward, the atmosphere was peaceful, with only the rustling sound of raindrops hitting the window.
Suzuki Sonoko grabbed an apple and started peeling it.
On the way, she remembered something and asked curiously, "Xiaolan, just now you were mumbling 'I remembered' in the car - what did you remember?"
Mao Lilan curled up in the quilt, still watching the rain.
Hearing Suzuki Sonoko's question, she turned around and said embarrassedly: "I remembered that a year ago, Shinichi and I went to New York to play, and Aunt Yukiko took us to see a drama - it was at that time that I met Sharon Wynyard."
"Sharon Wynyard? The mother of the mysterious international movie star, Chris Wynyard?" Suzuki Sonoko became curious. "What is she like in real life? Is she as aloof and difficult to get along with as her daughter?"
Jiang Xia thought of the way Vermouth smiled when she was with Mao Li Ran, and was silent for a moment: "..." He would answer this question, it depends on the person - if you appear with Mao Li Ran, then no matter whether Vermouth uses the identity of "Sharon Wynyard" or "Chris Wynyard", she probably has nothing to do with the word "difficult to get along with".
Mao Lilan recalled carefully and then shook her head: "I have never seen Miss Chris, I have only seen her mother. If I must say, Aunt Sharon should be, um... a bit naughty."
"..." Suzuki Sonoko didn't expect this comment to come from a 50-year-old veteran actress, "Naughty?"
"Yes." Mao Lilan laughed, "In order to get to the theater in time, Aunt Yukiko was caught for speeding. I thought we were going to take a day trip to the New York Police Department, but Aunt Sharon actually disguised herself as a fat sheriff in the police station and helped Aunt Yukiko out of trouble."
"Disguise as a fat sheriff?" Suzuki Sonoko thought for a moment and gestured, "Is it like the ninjas in the movies, sticking something on and shaping their faces to look like someone else, and then tearing it off when revealing their identities? ... Strange, I always feel like I've seen something similar before."
Mao Lilan nodded. "I was shocked when I saw the 'fat police officer' suddenly tear his face. Later, I heard Aunt Yukiko say that when she was young, she went to find a disguise expert to learn how to play a spy. Aunt Sharon was also learning disguise from that expert at the time. She was Aunt Yukiko's senior sister."
Jiang Xia picked an orange from the fruit basket and peeled it while thinking: That disguise expert should be Kuroba Kaito's father - he didn't know where the great magician hid after faking his death, he really wanted to meet him if he had the chance.
At the side, when it was mentioned that Kudo Yukiko was learning disguise, Suzuki Sonoko suddenly remembered something, and she slapped her forehead and said happily:
"Come to think of it, I do remember that when I was a child, Aunt Yukiko liked to pretend to be someone else and play tricks on people. Once she even pretended to be Jiang Xia's father, but when she went to hug Jiang Xia, Jiang Xia tore off her fake face - Aunt Yukiko turned around and hugged me again, crying and saying that even a child as considerate as Jiang Xia couldn't stand looking at her face, it seemed that her disguise skills were not yet perfect.
"A grown man's body, but with a woman's face and voice, she hugged me and cried. I was so scared that I kicked off her fake abdominal muscles...Haha, although I feel a little sorry for Aunt Yukiko when I think about it now, but if you round it off, I can be considered to have teamed up with Jiang Xia to solve a disguised case. It turns out that I am the real assistant detective!" - Mr. Yamada and Mr. Hashimoto, both of you should just go and line up at the back!
Jiang Xia: "..." Kudo Yukiko's voice-falseting skills are a little poor, but her disguise skills are still very good. As for why Jiang Xia Tongzhi tore her face... maybe he was afraid that she would walk around the street with that face, and then be picked up by Gin who passed by and used as a tool.
