Chapter 3041 3053 [Vodka caught in the crossfire]
The mature psychic calmed down and picked up the new ghost: "So where did you come from?"
The Snow Girl tried hard to recall and raised her hand to gesture: a place with a lot of snow.
Jiang Xia nodded and waited for the follow-up.
...and then I found out there was no follow-up.
——This ghost, who had traveled to many places, had long forgotten where he started from, and even had a hard time remembering where he had been.
“…”
The man and the ghost looked at each other in silence for a long time. Finally, Jiang Xia sighed and looked away.
...Forget it. The ghost has been detained anyway. Signing the contract is only a matter of time. It doesn't matter if we take a day or two.
As long as you take Conan and the Snow Girl to places with a lot of snow more often, I believe that it won’t take long before the magical fake elementary school student will solve the problem.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia turned to look at the mini classmate next to him, with high hopes in his eyes.
Conan was startled, and quickly flipped through the list more diligently: There must be something wrong among these missing persons!
…
Unfortunately, Conan couldn't smell any scent of murder from the list until the old woman called him to eat.
The adults nearby didn't notice the first-grader's behavior. Since the current issue was resolved, they naturally discussed the next itinerary: "Where are we going next?"
Officer Sato leaned back on the sofa tiredly and stretched himself. "Didn't we go out here to make chocolate at Fukito Villa? Now that our goal has been achieved, we should go home now."
——Compared to this tiring journey, she would rather go back and watch TV on the tatami.
Officer Shiratori also reviewed this messy trip and found that it had nothing to do with the "romantic date full of pink bubbles" he had expected - if the pink bubbles were replaced with blood-red bubbles, it would be very relevant.
“…”
Realizing that his thoughts had briefly strayed, he quickly came to his senses and gently dissuaded: "You can go home anytime. Now that we have a rare day off, we have to have fun outside."
The two high school girls had the same idea as Officer Sato. Suzuki Sonoko was a little greedy: "I've been in the woods these past few days and haven't had time to go shopping. I want to see if the dessert shop I often go to has any new products."
Officer Shiratori looked at them and suddenly an idea came to him.
“Come to think of it, when I was on vacation before, there didn’t seem to be all these messy troubles.
“Although I haven’t paid attention to Officer Takagi’s vacations, Miwako’s vacations are mostly harmonious. At least she doesn’t encounter cases along the way like this.
"But these students..."
Looking at these three high school students, Officer Shiratori's gaze changed quietly.
——Although we cannot be superstitious, it seems that when we are out there, we should at least respect metaphysics...
Thinking of this, a police officer who was still obsessed with Valentine's Day cleared his throat and said to the high school students and Dr. Shinide, "How about you go back first, and Officer Sato and I will stay here? - These two cases are not completely concluded yet, and we still need to take statements later. If everyone stays, it will be a waste of time."
Officer Takagi first expressed his gratitude for Officer Shiratori's enthusiasm, then felt something was wrong under Conan's sympathetic gaze, and quickly said: "Then, I'll stay too!"
"..." Vermouth listened quietly, and after listening, she couldn't help but look at Officer Shiratori twice.
There are some smart people in the Metropolitan Police Department who figured out how to avoid the case so quickly: Although judging from this man's attitude towards Wu Zuo, he did not discover Jiang Xia's true identity... but his intuition and ability to separate himself from the source of the case immediately after sensing something was wrong is far beyond the level of ordinary police officers.
Next to him, Officer Sato, who had been staying up all night for several days and whose brain was almost shut down, heard the proposal and nodded in agreement without giving it much thought - the boring finishing work could be done by them, the police, without wasting any extra time on the high school students.
Officer Shiratori looked at this scene and silently revealed a cunning smile. Even Officer Takagi instinctively relaxed and looked much more comfortable than before.
Vermouth took it all in, and suddenly she felt a little envious: Speaking of which, she followed here this time just to confirm whether Uzo noticed Calvados. Now that her goal has been achieved, she also wants to...
Jiang Xia suddenly looked at her and said, "Then let's go back with Dr. Shinde."
Vermouth was interrupted just as she was about to run away: "..."
…
Although everyone had their own ideas, overall, the two sides barely reached a consensus.
Soon, Dr. Shinde drove the small group of high school students towards Tokyo.
On the other hand, the three policemen stayed in Chuidu Villa with their own thoughts, continuing their romantic Valentine's Day which was probably impossible to fulfill.
"Finally, we're going back!" Looking at the scenery on the way back, Suzuki Sonoko was relaxed at first, but then she started to grumble, "Although I spent a lot of time, it seems like I didn't get to enjoy anything. It feels like I came here for nothing."
Jiang Xia held the newly found ghost in his arms and secretly denied in his heart: This trip was not in vain.
However, the ghost is only half in hand, and the contract has not yet been fully signed...
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia said casually while looking at the snow along the way, "Travel also requires fate. Maybe on the way back, we will encounter some interesting things, and we will have time to get off the car and play then."
Suzuki Sonoko's eyes lit up: "That's right! Compared to a trip with a set destination, these little surprises along the way might be more interesting!"
"New Doctor": "..."
She couldn't help but glance at Jiang Xia in the rearview mirror: Tell me straight, what little surprise have you prepared?
She had just muttered it in her heart, but as soon as she looked over, the person in the mirror raised his eyes and met her gaze.
Vermouth: "..."
Never mind, let's not tell her. She doesn't want to know at all.
…
The other side.
Vodka finished the work at hand quickly and without taking a break, he quickly took out his mobile phone and clicked on a page that popped up from a homemade mini program.
——This program will help him to grab the relevant news about Uzo, and make a simple summary and arrangement, so that he can grasp the latest movements and related information of that little bitch in real time.
"I told you, judging by the time, it's almost time for something to happen." Vodka poured himself a cup of coffee and picked up his phone like he was reading the morning newspaper. "Let me see what Uzo has done."
The next moment, a new push appeared.
Vodka looked closely and found that it was a close-up of a dog. The dog had thick fur and a round face. There was a bright medal on its chest with two equally bright characters on it - Sanlang.
Vodka, whose real name is Uozuka Saburo: “……?”
What's the meaning?
...What is that guy hinting at? !
