Chapter 3040 3052 [Legend] Ask for monthly ticket ()
On a small road not far from Chuidu Villa.
A black car was speeding along the lane into the distance. Halfway through the drive, the fake lawyer in the driver's seat suddenly shuddered and felt a little palpitated.
Curacao glanced at the rearview mirror vigilantly: "..." Is Uzo talking about me again?
…No matter what, the stupid mission that Rum had given her had been completed. There was no need to stay any longer, as long as she got away from here immediately, she would be safe.
"I hope he doesn't have any other tricks up his sleeve..."
An organizational cadre sighed tiredly, and began her return journey cautiously, taking an attitude a hundred times more cautious than when she broke into the confidential building to steal information.
…
At the same time, in the villa.
Calvados did not hide his doubts and asked, "Where is the female lawyer?"
Suzuki Sonoko gave him a strange look: "Why are you asking this?"... Do you sasaeng fans also have your own competition in private?
Calvados couldn't understand the look in her eyes, but he instinctively felt that something was wrong, and his whole body began to feel uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Officer Takagi was quite enthusiastic and answered his question normally: "Ms. Shirai had something urgent to do, so she left early. She should have reached the tunnel by now. Alas, the work of a lawyer is not easy. She just experienced such a life-and-death matter, and she has to go to work immediately after turning around."
Calvados: "..." Go to work? Humph, I think she knew that she had been discovered carrying a gun, so she ran away quickly.
But since the person has already gone far away, it is probably meaningless to report it now - if the person is at the scene, the police can search him even if they don't believe it. But once the person runs away, the police will definitely not chase back a person who does not look suspicious.
To put it another way, even if he really chased her, the woman would have already hidden the gun, and he still wouldn't be able to get what he wanted.
"Forget it." In the end, Calvados could only take a deep breath and was carried into the ambulance by the medical staff who came with the police.
He looked at the swaying car roof and muttered inwardly, "It's just a pistol. There's nothing to worry about. As long as I pay more attention, I have plenty of ways to replace the guns I lost."
…
The shot hero, Mr. Yamaguchi, was taken down the mountain, but for the local police, the work had just begun.
Although an enthusiastic detective helped them sort out the two new and old cases, they still had a lot of work to do - such as finding the location through the videotape left by the deceased and digging out the murderer's brother who had been buried for four years from the snow.
It sounds like a big project, but fortunately, two twin rescue dogs played a big role. With their enthusiastic help, the police finally determined the location and found the unfortunate body that was suffocated by the heavy snow.
Jiang Xia went over to watch. He looked at the corpse that was still quite intact due to being frozen, then looked down at the Snow Girl, trying to find similarities between the two.
The Snow Girl looked up at him, opened her arms in dissatisfaction, and turned gracefully in the air, showing off her beautiful kimono: she was not a man, nor was she a male ghost.
Jiang Xia thought of a doctor he had met on Moonlight Island: "Don't be so absolute..."
The Snow Girl was spinning around, admiring her own graceful figure in the reflection of the car next to her: "......?"
…
Although he really wanted to confirm the identity of the Snow Girl on the spot and recruit this ghost who was not easy to deceive under his command... however, in the end, after many eliminations, Jiang Xia could only regretfully admit that Akan Liyako's unlucky brother was not this new ghost.
A psychic withdrew his gaze from the excavation site in boredom and returned to the center of the villa.
After that, he thought for a moment and looked at the old lady at Fudu Villa, "Besides Miss Ganli's brother, how many other guests are missing here?"
The old woman muttered, "You make it sound like people often go missing or die here. But that's not the case at all. Except for avalanches, the resort is not dangerous at other times. It's just that sometimes some guests accidentally fall and get injured, or get lost and lose their temperature."
"With Sanlang's help, these guests can be found quickly, no matter they are dead or alive. As for the missing person, there has only been one missing person in all these years. Hasn't he been found by you now?"
Speaking of this, the old woman's tone softened slightly, remembering that Jiang Xia had helped a lot in this matter.
She returned to the Buddhist temple behind the house, searched slowly for a while, took out an old booklet, and handed it to Jiang Xia: "Although those guests died because they did not listen to instructions and insisted on going out when it was snowing or dark... I still erected a monument for them, and left photos and a list for their families to come and claim them in the future - if you want to know, just take your time to read it."
There is actually such a missing persons list?
Jiang Xia took it with great interest.
Conan heard the noise and hurried over to take a look. Suddenly he thought of something and asked Jiang Xia solemnly, "Do you think there is something wrong with the deaths of these people?" - Is there any other shocking murder case hidden in it?
Jiang Xia just wanted to find out if there was the original body of the Snow Girl in here, so he said perfunctorily: "I'm just a little curious, just taking a look."
Conan did not dare to underestimate Jiang Xia's every move. Seeing the old woman next to him was about to leave, he quickly spoke to keep her: "Grandma, can you help us introduce the basic situation of these disappearances?"
The old woman waved her hands and said, "It happened so long ago, how can I remember it? You can see for yourselves. I have to go give Saburo and Jiro a bath. They helped the police find the body, and the county government is going to give them an award. After they are washed, we can take pictures and put them on the news."
Conan: “…” The old lady’s service attitude towards people is a bit perfunctory, but she is very nice to dogs.
Next to them, Jiang Xia didn't pay much attention to the two puppies that were about to win the prize. He opened the booklet given by the old woman, lowered his head and looked through it, hoping to find a female victim who looked like the Snow Girl.
However, after reading it all, he regretfully discovered that the vast majority of the victims in this mountain villa were men - compared to going deep into the snow forest to hunt for Japanese wolves, the female tourists who came here seemed to prefer staying in the house to make chocolate, and the latter was obviously much safer than the former.
The only two or three women didn't look like the Snow Girl. Jiang Xia specifically asked the ghost to identify her, and sure enough, she had no feelings about the corpse in the photo.
However, after looking at the photos, the Snow Girl seemed to understand what Jiang Xia was thinking. She tugged at the psychic's scarf and said: She was not a ghost from Chuidu Villa. She heard about the legend of the Snow Girl here a while ago and came here specifically to look for a companion.
Jiang Xia: “……?”
Why didn’t you tell me such an important thing earlier?
