Chapter 3193 Chapter 3205 [Noble Phantasm]
Conan was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. He turned around and told Dr. Agasa through the wire fence: "Doctor, you stay here - in case Xiaolan and Sonoko come back by themselves, someone has to tell them where everyone is going, so as not to miss them."
Dr. Agasa looked down at his beer belly and breathed a sigh of relief. He was also worried about how to climb over the wire. Hearing this, he nodded quickly:
"No problem! You guys should be careful too. We'll meet here in an hour. If we haven't found anyone by then, I'll ask the people at the hotel to help search the mountain."
After Conan finished talking to him, he turned his head and saw Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya's expression. He was slightly startled: "What's wrong?"
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya looked eagerly at the direction where Haibara Ai left, and said without giving up: "Why don't we walk a few steps faster and catch up with Xiao... catch up with Brother Jiang Xia and the others."
Conan was stunned: "Follow Jiang Xia? Aren't you very afraid of him?"
After a moment of confusion, suddenly, this fake elementary school student understood everything. He looked speechlessly at this classmate who seemed to be in love with Yoshida Ayumi not long ago: "..." In order to pursue your so-called love, you are not even afraid of Jiang Xia... In a sense, you are really a hero.
But right now, gathering together to look for someone is too inefficient.
Thinking of this, Conan pointed to the other side coldly and said, "Search separately and make a quick decision. Although there are almost no black bears in Chiba Prefecture, this side of the wire fence is definitely not as safe as the other side. People who pick game mistakenly enter the hunting area and are shot by hunters as animals. This kind of thing is not uncommon in hunting areas. Don't think about those messy things. Since you are here, just look for people seriously."
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, who was poured with a bucket of cold water, said: "..."
…
The noise behind me gradually faded away.
After walking for a while, Huihara Ai asked Jiang Xia while looking for someone: "The Miss Shirai that Kudo always talks about... is she related to the organization?"
Although she didn't want to find out any organization's secrets from Jiang Xia, if this was true, she would have to avoid him in the future to avoid accidentally exposing her identity and causing trouble for those around her.
As expected, Jiang Xia nodded and acknowledged the identity of the lawyer Shirai.
Haibara Ai was silent for a moment: "I didn't expect Kudo's intuition to be so accurate..." Could it be that the fake elementary school student also has a strong sense of the organization like her?
No, it's more likely that Miss Shirai did something and Conan caught her.
So what did she do to Jiang Xia?
Haibara Ai touched her chin and fell into deep thought: First of all, it is definitely not what Conan thought, that she wants to recruit Jiang Xia to join the group - because Jiang Xia has already been a member of the organization for a long time, and in some ways has a lot of experience.
Secondly, it should not be to harm Jiang Xia. Again, Jiang Xia is a member of the organization, and the organization has no need to harm him. And if they really want to harm someone, they don't need to use such a troublesome and tortuous method.
So, what other reasons could she have for getting close to Jiang Xia? Or, because Jiang Xia's reputation was growing, did the organization really have some kind of request for him that was inconvenient to say directly?
The more Haibara Ai thought about it, the more confused she became, and her expression became more and more solemn.
At this moment, she suddenly felt a heavy sensation on her head. Jiang Xia touched her head and said, "Don't worry. It has nothing to do with the organization. It's just Ms. Shirai's personal behavior."
Huiyuan Ai was stunned for a moment, and thought of another possibility: "She... is she your fan?"
Jiang Xia shook his head regretfully. He did not dwell on this topic any more. He only said what Huihara Ai needed to know: "Don't be too afraid of her. Although Miss Shirai is very capable, she is not the kind of person who is too ambitious. She is also a little timid - you still remember the way Conan smiled sinisterly."
"Of course." A reflection from glasses seemed to flash across Haibara Ai's mind.
Jiang Xia: "If you run into her and can't avoid her, just smile at her like Conan does, and she won't bother you anymore."
"Like Kudo, smile?" Huihara Ai looked confused, but since Jiang Xia said this, she decided to take note of it.
Then I had time to think: “…” What is the principle behind this?
Could it be that the female cadre has watched too many movies like The Grudge and is particularly afraid of children, so she can get away with it in this way?
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly, I heard the sound of grass swaying in the distance, as if someone was walking through the bushes.
Huiyuan Ai came back to her senses and turned her head to look over there: "What was that sound just now?"
Jiang Xia was also looking there: "It should be the movement coming from behind the second barbed wire."
As he spoke, he walked forward a few steps, looked at the bottom of the wire fence, and said as expected: "There's a hole here."
Huiyuan Ai also came closer. Looking down, she saw a half-meter-high hole in front of her. The wire at the edge of the hole was no longer sharp - it looked like the hole had been there for quite some time.
"There is such a big safety hazard. Fortunately, there are no bears in this area... But this kind of hole is still too dangerous for children who like to run around. We have to tell the nearby management agency when we get out." Huihara Ai squatted down speechlessly:
"By the way, could it be that Maori, Suzuki and the others also got through here?"
She stretched out her hand to gesture, and then discovered with regret that the hole was big enough for two slim high school girls to squeeze through.
Although Mao Lilan was very sensible, Miss Suzuki sometimes acted more childish than her elementary school classmates. Add to that the sound coming from behind the wire fence just now...
Jiang Xia nodded in agreement after hearing her words: "The distance between the two wire fences is not too close, and Xiaolan is a bit directionally challenged. If they plan to go back after swimming for a while, they may mistake this fence for another one and go deeper and deeper."
"I thought so too." Huiyuan Ai bent down and crawled over. "There's really nothing we can do about them. Let's go over and take a look."
When she reached the other side, she stood up and was patting the dirt off her hands when she suddenly heard the barbed wire behind her shake slightly.
When she turned around, she saw Jiang Xia falling from the sky and landing next to her.
Huiyuan Ai: “…”
I almost forgot, unless this barbed wire fence is built another 100 meters higher, there is no way Jiang Xia would be able to drill a hole... Huh?
She suddenly turned her head to look at the bushes beside her - the noise of Jiang Xia climbing over the wall just now seemed to have startled something inside.
With the sound of rustling grass and trees, suddenly, a furry black head popped out from the bushes.
Huihara Ai: “?!”
