Chapter 2845 2857 [Survival Rules] Ask for monthly ticket (づど)
Thinking of the righteous detective who had helped him clear his name, Okiya Subaru couldn't help but feel a little worried. And if he remembered correctly, the task that Usa gave him was to take Jiang Xia to any place where a murder might have occurred. If Jiang Xia was gone, he, the peripheral member responsible for connecting with Jiang Xia...
The weak, pitiful and helpless members of the organization shuddered silently and suddenly felt that things were becoming serious.
While he was considering whether to take on the mission of "Exploring Kenbashi Station" which was full of unknown dangers, at this moment, Subaru Okiya suddenly remembered something.
He dragged the mouse and clicked on an inconspicuous software in the corner of the screen.
Soon, a lively communication group appeared in front of them, and an announcement popped up, which wrote about the latest Itakura Taku incident - someone compiled a news summary of this case and included it in the group file.
"Hmm?" Okiya Subaru took a curious look, only to find that the date was yesterday afternoon.
He sighed and put the document aside for the time being: what he wanted to know was not what happened yesterday, but Jiang Xia's whereabouts since last night.
I flipped through the chat history and suddenly, Subaru Okiya's eyes fixed on one place.
A few minutes ago, someone sent a message:
[The detective's office is open now. My driver just passed by that street and saw him opening a lock - does anyone have an appointment today? If not, I'll go over first.]
Another person tactfully retorted:
[Your Coco just got lost last week, so this week it should be our Taozi's turn.]
After that, there was a series of tug-of-war that made Subaru Okiya tremble with fear and quickly jumped over it. Ten minutes later, a message suddenly popped up and a group photo appeared in the group.
——The photo shows a calico cat, a famous detective, and a lady holding the calico cat with a big smile on her face.
It seems that the one who finally won the right to find the cat was Mrs. No. 3 who appeared out of nowhere - action speaks louder than thought, and while others were still arguing in the group, she had already stepped on the accelerator and rushed straight to the detective agency.
[My Xiaohua disappeared this morning. I rushed to the detective agency to ask Jiang Xia for help. Unexpectedly, when I arrived, I saw Xiaohua squatting at the door, eating canned food from Jiang Xia's hand.]
Mrs. No. 3 happily shared her experience: [Xiaohua also likes him very much, this must be the wonderful fate between us. ]
“…”
After a brief silence, the chat history in the group started scrolling rapidly again.
[Is it just canned food? It seems that Mrs. Matsushita has been in the group for too short a time and doesn’t understand the situation yet.]
The intercepted wife No. 2 typed quickly: [When Taozi went there, she had fresh steak. It seems that Jiang Xia was very busy today and didn’t have much time to entertain you.]
Mrs. 1: [Speaking of fate, my Coco and Jiang Xia have a deeper bond. When we were at Mika Park last week...]
Okiya Subaru: "..."
Does Jiang Xia know that he has inexplicably developed a bond with a dog?
He glanced at the increasing number of words on the screen, sighed, silently scrolled up, and found the photo he had just taken.
"Yes, it was taken today. The newspapers on the shelf were just released this morning, and there are no signs of synthesis in the photo." Okiya Subaru carefully examined the photo, "Jiang Xia's expression is also very natural, and his height has not changed. It doesn't look like a disguise or an imposter."
Having achieved his goal, Subaru Okiya left the troublesome chat group and started to think calmly.
"That means Jiang Xia had a one-on-one encounter with the gem robbers last night, but he was fine, and the robbers were not caught?"
Subaru Okiya always felt that something was wrong: "What happened last night? A high school detective should not reconcile with the robbers. Also, why did Wu Zuo specifically ask me to take Jiang Xia to Gunma Prefecture? Jiang Xia and the three robbers, and Wu Zuo..."
Countless fragments were pieced together in his mind, and he vaguely felt that there was some connection between these things.
"Forget it. I don't want to think about it anymore."
Realizing that he was trying to figure out Usa's script, Okiya Subaru braked hard and began to try to forget last night's experience: "The more I think about it, the deeper the connection, and the deeper the connection, the easier it is to be involved... As a stage tool, I'd better forget all this as soon as possible and prepare for the next job."
Just as I was thinking about it, there was a ding sound and an email came into the mailbox.
Okiya Subaru looked at the screen with a start. Seeing the sender clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It turned out to be the professor..."
In fact, he would feel a pang in his heart whenever he saw emails from professors.
But now, with the comparison with Uzo, the professor's news suddenly became more attractive, and even those papers that were originally puzzling became attractive in an instant.
"He agreed to my leave and approved two weeks of leave for me?" Subaru Okiya didn't expect that the seemingly old-fashioned professor was so easy to talk to, and he could even offer a buy 1 get 1 free deal on vacation.
But that suits him just fine.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and began to prepare to order water and daily necessities needed for the next two weeks.
…
Opposite the computer.
"The student asked for a week's leave, but you approved two weeks?" The professor's old friend was a little surprised. "Don't you always say that time is money and you don't like students asking for leave? Why did you change your temper today?"
The old professor looked at the recipient on the email and sighed: "He ran into a jewelry thief last night and almost lost his life. And..."
Moreover, this student seemed to have a bit of evil nature - he didn't pay much attention at first and just accepted him as an ordinary student, but later he found that Okiya Subaru would always take leave to attend various funerals.
At first, the professor thought that the student was just making up some lame excuses. However, after a little investigation, he was silent: funerals are real, and there are usually accompanying news. And when the murders happened, Okiya Subaru was often nearby.
Since then, he has not imposed too many restrictions on this student. Occasionally, when Subaru Okiya asked for leave and was not in the laboratory, he would secretly breathe a sigh of relief... But these unmaterialistic things don't need to be told to old friends.
With this in mind, the professor responded perfunctorily: "In short, in addition to academics, we should also pay more attention to students' mental health - learning is endless, and these two weeks are not a big deal. Just wait until he has rested enough before coming to school."
…
When everyone is busy with their own things.
New clinic.
The phone of “New Doctor” buzzed as he received an email.
On the bed, Vermouth, who was sleeping comfortably, stretched her body and stretched herself. Then she reached out from under the quilt and slowly took out her cell phone.
After taking a look at the content of the email, Vermouth's eyes, which were originally narrowed, suddenly opened slowly.
"News reports of Tequila's death?"
She frowned and looked at the email: "How long ago was this? Why did Gin send this to me all of a sudden?"
