Chapter 3120 3132 [Uzo's Bloody Love] Ask for monthly ticket (づど)
Vodka breathed a sigh of relief and fell back into his seat exhausted.
"There seemed to be a doorbell ring. Looks like someone went to look for her again. This Usui is quite popular. There were constant visitors and phone calls all night."
Vodka scratched his head in pain, trying to speed up his thinking in this way: "But the visitor is only temporary. She will be back soon, and I don't have much time to react. I have to think of a way without exposing my existence..."
"ah!"
Suddenly, a short scream was heard, but it disappeared as soon as it came out.
Vodka was startled and moved closer to the screen again. Soon, he saw Usui Ritsuko reappear on the screen... but in an unconscious state.
Vodka: “…”
With a snap, all the ambiguous atmosphere and pink bubbles were instantly shattered into a bloody residue on the ground.
...So all the preparations were just for his new script?
An overthinking cadre twitched his eyes slightly: "Fortunately, I was confused just now and didn't report directly to Brother Gin. Otherwise, Brother Gin would definitely think that I was jumpy and would no longer pay so much attention to my information... Wait, is this also the purpose of that little bitch?"
"No, no, that's not right. First of all! He doesn't even know that I'm in Izu, let alone that I accidentally found the hidden camera in this room."
Vodka pressed his brows and sighed: "I actually started to think based on the premise that 'Uzo knew I was spying' without realizing it... This subtle intimidation is really scary - relax! No matter how perverted that guy is, he can't crush a professional like me in the field of information technology."
"... Even if he is gifted with a programming genius, he is still under the covers. How could he possibly discover my existence?"
After comforting himself like this, the organizational cadre who was once nervous about everything finally managed to convince himself.
Vodka moved the stool, adjusted it back to the most comfortable angle, and continued to observe carefully like a shadowy peeper.
…
A few hours later.
Kisara asked all her colleagues one by one, but no one noticed where Jiang Xia had gone.
"Jiang Xia is missing?" The three male colleagues scratched their heads and gave similar answers. "We were halfway through drinking when we felt the cool sea breeze blowing in from the door, so we couldn't help but go out to enjoy the breeze - maybe the detective also likes the night view of the seaside, so he ran out to hang out?"
Hibiki Eri frowned and shook her head: "We looked around the hotel, on the rooftop, and on the stairs. Jiang Xia is a celebrity. If he really walked around the street, someone should have noticed him."
"In addition, we called him but couldn't get through. Later, his phone was turned off..."
Mao Lilan also became worried. She looked at the watch: "It's already 2 o'clock in the morning. When we went out together before, Jiang Xia never stayed out so late..."
Conan suddenly turned his head and pointed at the elevator entrance with a sharp gaze: "Someone is watching us over there!"
“?!”
A group of people turned around at the same time and looked over there vigilantly.
But unexpectedly, there was no suspicious person with a gloomy face at the corner, only a waiter in hotel uniform.
The waitress was peeking around in the stairwell, as if she wanted to come over but couldn't find a reason. Now that she was seen by several people, it was natural for her to come over and ask.
"You guys seem to be looking for something." The waiter looked at these suspicious guests and asked politely, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Only then did Hibiki realize that it did seem strange to be walking around the hotel corridor at 2 a.m. and knocking on three or four people's doors. She explained, "The high school student who came with us is missing, and his cell phone is unreachable. We are looking for him."
"High school students?" The waitress looked at Eri Kisaki, then at Ran Maoli and Conan, and finally remembered these familiar people. She covered her lips with surprise and asked, "Are you Mr. Jiang Xia's companions?"
Just after the surprise, the waiter realized that something was wrong and said in his heart, "Mr. Jiang Xia is missing?"
Hibiki Eri looked at the waiter with some surprise: "..." Jiang Xia is really popular. His fans can be found everywhere...
She nodded, then suddenly remembered something and asked casually, "Can you help me ask the front desk? There is a road leading to the lobby from the restaurant. If Jiang Xia walks this way, maybe someone will see him."
The waiter nodded quickly and joined the team looking for someone: "I'll go ask now."
After some inquiries, as expected, the front desk brought new clues.
"My colleague who was on duty at the restaurant said that he saw a short-haired lady leaving the restaurant with Jiang Xia. He did not stop them because he had seen them sitting at the same table before and they probably knew each other."
"The lady with short hair?" Hibiki suddenly remembered something, "Could it be Ritsuko?"
…
With this important clue, the group hurried back and went to Usui Ritsuko's room.
Kisaki Eri lowered her head and suddenly discovered that compared to the last time she came, there was an extra small "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door handle of Usui Ritsuko's room.
"Huh? What is this?" Conan also discovered this thing that was as tall as himself. "It wasn't there when we came here last time."
The more she thought about it, the weirder it seemed. Recalling Usui Ritsuko's usual personality, Kisaki Eri frowned, and gradually had a bad feeling.
She knocked on the door quickly, but no one came to open it. After thinking for a while, Kisaki Eri took out her cell phone and called Usui Ritsuko.
A ringing sound could be heard faintly in the room through the door, but no one answered.
"It's 2 a.m., Lawyer Usui should have fallen asleep." The fat lawyer yawned. He looked at the solemn-looking Eri Kisaki and realized something belatedly, "...Wait, you don't think that the little detective is in Lawyer Usui's room, do you? - How is that possible! They just met for the first time today."
The male lawyer who had bought ties with Hibiki Eri also nodded and agreed with this statement: "Why don't we call Jiang Xia again to ask, maybe the signal was just bad before, so it showed as turned off - there is a shopping mall nearby, and their basement floor signal is very poor."
The squinting lawyer took out his cell phone and put his knowledge into practice: "Let me call. I just got Jiang Xia's business card this afternoon."
He pulled up his address book and quickly dialed the saved number.
The next moment, a familiar ringtone sounded clearly in Usui Ritsuko's room.
A group of people: “?!”
