Chapter 3058 3070 [A Genius with a Trick]
Amuro Toru put on a polite smile and interrupted the small talk. He put on an admiring tone like a star-chaser and said to Yanase Takashi, "How did you take such a wonderful photo?"
"Of course it depends on luck." Yanase Takashi was as humble as ever. He smiled mysteriously, "These are all gifts from God."
...Is your god called Uzo?
Toru Amuro really wanted to ask like this, but of course, his reason made him swallow the words back.
Yanase Ryuichi didn't notice the subtle change in this fake fanboy. He continued what he had just said, "For example, the winning painting 'A Person Falling from a High Sky' - I happened to pass by there and suddenly heard screams from upstairs. I took a photo and I actually took a photo like that. I couldn't believe it myself."
"Heh." A malicious sneer suddenly came from the side.
Several people were startled and turned to look, only to see a half-bald man with a high hairline coming over to them at some point.
The man looked at Yanase Ryuichi and said meaningfully, "'Coincidence'? --Don't you feel guilty when you say that?"
Yanagisawa Ryuichi's expression changed slightly and he looked at him angrily.
Amuro Toru was cheered up, feeling that a clue had been delivered to his door. He took the initiative to greet the half-bald man: "Who are you...?"
The other party ignored him and turned to Jiang Xia, took out his business card, and said jokingly: "You must be Jiang Xia. I have been waiting for you to come to me just now, but unfortunately you never came."
Jiang Xia smiled and took out a business card: "The opening time is too short. Before I can exchange a few business cards, it's already time for the awards ceremony - it shouldn't be too late to exchange now."
Seeing that he had taken the initiative to give him a way out, the half-bald man handed over his business card with satisfaction: "My name is Nakai Akira, and I'm a correspondent. If you encounter any cases you want to expose in the future, you can always contact me."
"in addition……"
He looked at Yanase Ryuichi who was standing beside him and said, "Same to you. If you want to make yourself the news one day, you can always come to me."
"What do you mean?" Yanase Takashi couldn't stand it anymore. He grabbed the half-bald man by the collar and said, "Since the last time we met, you have been treating me in a weird way. If you have time to be jealous of me, you might as well practice your report-writing skills!"
Seeing that a fight was about to break out, the half-bald man did not panic at all. He laughed and showed an intriguing look: "I advise you to be respectful to me, otherwise..."
He pushed Yanase Ryuichi away, grabbed a handful of white powder from his pocket, and then blew a breath with a playful look on his face, blowing the powder towards the reporter Xinxing in front of him.
Yanase Ryuichi coughed twice due to choking. After he came to his senses, he stared at the powder and his face suddenly changed.
The half-bald man asked slowly, like a cat teasing a mouse: "How is it, have you calmed down?"
"..." Yanagisawa Ryuichi was silent for a long time, gritted his teeth and cursed a few words, then turned around and hurriedly left the venue.
The half-bald man looked at his back with a smug look of a winner.
Then he raised his chin, looked at Jiang Xia with some indescribable gaze, and turned and left.
The other reporters noticed the brief episode, but as colleagues, they knew the two men’s personalities to some extent, so they quickly pretended they hadn’t seen anything and continued eating and drinking.
The three people present could not pretend that nothing had happened.
Mori Atsushi recalled the fine white powder and whispered, "Could it be drugs? Nakai found out that Yanase Ryuichi was taking drugs, so he threatened him with this?"
Jiang Xia shook his head: "If it really was drugs, he wouldn't have taken it out so brazenly in such an occasion." That wouldn't be a threat, but a mutual destruction.
While the two were discussing in low voices, Toru Amuro, standing next to them, looked at the half-bald man's back as he left and sighed.
——It can be seen that, like Atsushi Mori, reporter Nakai also feels that Yanase Ryuichi’s genius personality is a bit weird, and has already found certain flaws.
There was no problem originally, but now because of this, he seemed to feel that Jiang Xia, who was also a genius, might have a similar handle and was looking forward to holding it.
This is really...
Toru Amuro shook his head, not wanting to bother with such a mortal who had never seen a genius.
He turned to look at Atsushi Mori and realized that he had some preconceived ideas: this time, Jiang Xia seemed to be right - after a night of contact, this reporter with a gloomy appearance was much more normal than his two colleagues.
"I don't know what that reporter Nakai found." Amuro Toru reviewed his busy schedule and managed to find some time for the next day. "I'll go to his house tomorrow and check his computer. I should be able to find something useful."
…
The party was over. Although no clear conclusions were reached today, a very important clue was obtained.
Toru Amuro had something urgent to do, so he drove away first.
Atsushi Mori didn't think it was a bad thing to stay with the famous detective. He got in the car and took the detective home.
When they arrived at the place, looking at the back of the young detective, Atsushi Mori was thoughtful.
"Although Jiang Xia seems to have done nothing, things have inexplicably made great progress... Could it be that he solved the case by relying on 'luck'?
"No, that's not right. It can't be said to be all luck. If Jiang Xia hadn't been there, those two guys who were at odds with each other wouldn't have met in front of us just to get in touch with this famous detective. If they hadn't met, we naturally wouldn't have been able to get any useful information from the conflict between the two."
After a brief thought and confirming that Jiang Xia was different from Yanase Ryuichi, Mori Atsushi nodded and returned home.
…
Day 2.
Jiang Xia spent the daytime in the detective agency, then went around to Teitan Elementary School on the way home from school and accurately intercepted Conan who was about to go home.
The fake elementary school student watched his three friends run away like frightened monkeys, and said to Jiang Xia speechlessly: "I have told you many times not to hit children, but they don't believe me."
Huiyuan Ai, who was carrying a schoolbag, yawned and guessed Jiang Xia's intention of stopping them: "Do you want me to continue to help you look up information?"
Conan was stunned for a moment, then he perked up: "What information?" Did Jiang Xia receive some difficult commissions that are difficult to solve? Let him take a look!
Jiang Xia looked at this eager detective, and with the all-seeing eyes of Huihara Ai beside him, he whispered mysteriously: "Come to my house and you will find out."
…
Conan happily followed Jiang Xia.
Ten minutes later, he looked at the screen full of information about the Snow Girl and fell into deep thought for a moment.
