Chapter 3037 3049 [Matchmaker Rum]
A fake lawyer rationally ignored the high school girl's nonsense and continued his interrupted words steadily: "So I think Jiang Xia may have guessed the clues of the case, but he is not sure, so he wants to go out alone to investigate.
"After all, I am a lawyer and I know how important the evidence collection process is. I didn't think much about it at the time and just followed with my phone.
"But detectives often rely on a flash of inspiration to solve cases, and I was worried that my presence would interfere with Jiang Xia's train of thought, so I had to follow him from a distance and didn't get close."
——In an instant, the strange scene described by the bearded robber, "a female ghost wandering around and taking pictures in the woods", had a reasonable explanation.
Officer Sato looked at her, then at Calvados, and then thought about Mr. Yamada and Mr. George, and nodded with emotion: "The friends Jiang Xia makes are really warm-hearted and kind people."
Conan's eye twitched: "..." I used to think that Officer Sato was a smart person among the police, but now it seems that she is indeed a little slow - what friends, what good people, are just a group of outlaws pretending to be good people to confuse the high school detectives.
He really wanted to loudly expose the true colors of these guys like this... However, in the end, as an innocent soul who should have died at the hands of the organization, the mini elementary school student could only take a deep breath, give up any action that might attract the other party's attention, and pretend to stand there obediently.
…
In any case, the missing Miss Shirai has finally been found.
So there is only one person left who is missing.
"Where's the other hunter?"
Calvados was very concerned about this matter, and inspired by Curacao, he quickly found a plausible excuse for himself:
"Since these two guys caused an avalanche once, they can cause it again. If we don't find him quickly, what if he uses the same trick again and buries the rescue team entering the mountain?"
"!"
This does seem to be a serious problem.
The three policemen looked serious and subconsciously turned to look at the bearded hunter - if they wanted to find out the whereabouts of the other hunter, asking the guy in front of them was undoubtedly a shortcut.
However, facing everyone's gaze, the bearded hunter just sneered, revealing an expression of a warrior who would rather die than surrender: "Don't even think about it, I've said it before, I won't betray my companions!"
Jiang Xia glanced at him, sighed, and spoke sympathetically: "You two were originally in the room last night, but he left halfway, which shows that you have different divisions of labor - have you ever thought about why your companion not only failed to complete the task, but also suddenly disappeared?"
The bearded man was stunned and came back to his senses from the passion of one man against the whole world: Yes, we agreed to let our companions plant the bomb and give a signal before the explosion to facilitate our evacuation, but now a night has passed...where are Chuang and the others?
Jiang Xia sighed again: "Do you really think that you two alone can silence everyone present? Although you have guns, this kind of shotgun cannot fire continuously. Among us are police officers, detectives, and many brave citizens who are not afraid of death--"
He turned around and pointed at Calvados, then continued in Vermouth's indescribable gaze: "No matter what method you use, we will not let you fire a second shot, and we will not let you escape from us openly."
After hearing this, Officer Takagi nodded vigorously with a sense of mission.
Jiang Xia continued to look at the hunters: "In this situation, it is easy to see that the ones who should escape are not us, but you two - but now it seems that, unfortunately, only your companions have seen through the truth, so..."
"Impossible!" The bearded man was shaken in his heart, but he interrupted him forcefully. He instinctively looked for evidence that he had not been betrayed by his companions:
"So what if the shotgun can't fire continuously? You're just a bunch of unarmed people, and a few bombs can bury you all! The reason why there is no news about that guy... must be because he sent a signal after installing the bomb, but I didn't notice it - and because I didn't evacuate in time, he couldn't detonate the bomb. He could only hide nearby, keeping a low profile as if he had already escaped... Yes, that must be it!"
"bomb?"
Officer Sato listened to his words and suddenly realized something: "Your plan is to blow up this villa?!"
The bearded man who let the cat out of the bag: "..."
…
Now that we know the hunters' sinister plan, we can no longer stay in this villa.
The three policemen hurriedly organized the evacuation, but before leaving the house, they suddenly found an unconscious guy in the corridor.
"Isn't this the hunter who went to plant the bomb?" Officer Sato looked at the scene in surprise, "Why is he sleeping here?"
Behind the crowd, Calvados, who was supported by two male policemen, was startled. He quickly shook them off and walked quickly forward.
After seeing the person lying on the ground and the gun broken into two pieces not far away, he felt choked and fell down silently.
"Mr. Yamaguchi?" Officer Takagi was startled and quickly picked him up. "Are you okay?"
"Don't make a noise." Officer Shiratori stopped his startled colleague and gave a reasonable explanation for the enthusiastic citizen's fainting. "He must have seen that the danger was over and relaxed, so he fainted. It's not a big problem. Help him go back and let him rest."
…
After confiscating the hunters' bombs and extracting more information from the bespectacled hunter who was slowly waking up, the three policemen finally breathed a sigh of relief and confirmed that the two guys had no other tricks up their sleeves.
Then all we have to do next is wait for the local police to come and clean up the mess.
The group of people returned to the living room, each killing time with their own thoughts.
Curacao sat by the window, thankful that these two troublesome days were finally over. She was thinking about how to relax after returning home and forget about this not-so-wonderful experience, when her phone buzzed and she received a message.
Curacao: “?”
When did the signal come? Could it be that the base station that was destroyed by the avalanche yesterday has been repaired?
When her phone rang, it meant someone was looking for her, and when someone was looking for her, it meant there was trouble...
For a moment, she really hoped that another avalanche would come and bury the base station, but the email had already arrived, and as a rational adult, Curacao could only pick up her phone and check it.
Then I saw the message from Rum:
[How was your fun?
I heard that the mountain villa was blocked by an avalanche. During this period, have you seized the opportunity to improve your relationship with your future colleagues? ]
