Chapter 3298 3010 [Passerby]
The program crew didn't expect Jiang Xia to agree.
But it makes sense not to take the pie that falls from the sky. They happily invited people to the stage, and after a warm-up, they asked solemnly: "Then next, please ask Mr. Detective to answer this question!"
He waved his hand and pointed at the five "masked wolves" with different body shapes and clothing: "Excuse me, among these five wrestlers, which one is the undefeated 'wolf-faced warrior'?"
As he spoke, he held up a poster with a very impactful background and a "wolf-faced warrior" standing proudly in the background. The man in the poster was wearing a black and white wolf head mask, shirtless, and draped in a black cloak, and was dressed exactly the same as contestant No. 3 among the five people.
Conan looked at the poster, then at the five contestants, and fell into silence for a short while.
"Whether it's the clothes, the black and white wolf mask, or the bronze skin and well-proportioned figure... this contestant No. 3 is exactly the same as the one on the poster!" Conan's eyes twitched slightly, and he muttered to himself:
"I thought they would let the other people wear the clothes that the 'Wolf-Faced Warrior' usually wears, and then let the Wolf-Faced Warrior wear other clothes to confuse the audience and increase the difficulty of solving the puzzle. But now... the other four people, whether in skin color or body shape, are very different from the Wolf-Faced Warrior on the poster."
"You call this a puzzle? Even kindergarten's spot-the-difference puzzle is harder than this!"
On the stage, Jiang Xia also looked at the poster and fell into silence for a short time.
The ghosts secretly breathed a sigh of relief: with such a visible difference, they didn't have to peek through the masks.
"Then who is it?"
On the opposite side, the host was holding the poster, still working hard to create the atmosphere.
Seeing him getting closer and closer, the poster was about to hit his face, Jiang Xia could only sigh and pointed to where the five muscular men were standing: "It should be number 3."
"That's right! It's number 3!!"
Although he had only answered a simple question with the answer written on the riddle correctly, the host looked so excited that it seemed as if Jiang Xia had solved some unsolved mystery in the world. He cheered at the top of his lungs, "The famous detective's reasoning ability is well-deserved!"
"Wow!!!" The crowd also cheered out of respect, and Suzuki Sonoko applauded especially loudly.
This made Judy look at her, and she couldn't help but start to wonder if Uzo had someone assign this commission to mock the smart detective who always saw through his cases.
…
Different from the usual group of people who were used to solving murder cases, the organizers and other onlookers were quite satisfied with this mystery-solving activity: the organizers successfully promoted the star players of today's game, and let those citizens who didn't know much about wrestling and just came to watch the fun know about the "Wolf-Faced Warrior". The onlookers also saw the celebrities and enjoyed the lively atmosphere of the day off, and everyone was happy.
After completing this perfunctory puzzle and handing out business cards to the enthusiastic spectators, it was almost time for the competition to begin.
A few people mixed in with the crowd and walked towards the competition venue.
The two high school girls enthusiastically surrounded teacher Judy, who had been neglected by them recently, wanting to leave the American foreign teacher with pleasant memories of this trip to Tokyo.
Conan noticed that their attitude was different from before, and followed them curiously, wanting to eavesdrop on what was going on.
"Dr. Arata" was left alone for a short while, but soon, an equally enthusiastic high school student came up to her and said considerately: "You don't talk much today, and you don't get close to Xiaolan and Conan."
"Dr. Shinchu" laughed and said, "I've played too many leading and supporting roles. In your place, I just want to be a quiet passerby."
After a pause, she suddenly realized that her words seemed a little ambiguous, and she quickly added: "Of course, it's a living one." Not a quiet corpse.
Jiang Xia nodded: "I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship with Teacher Judy. You came as soon as she invited you."
Vermouth sighed deliberately: "You don't know how annoying these FBI are. They are just like flies that stick to people and won't give up once they get stuck."
"Really?" Jiang Xia seemed unable to empathize with her. "If you feel annoyed, give it to me. I like it very much."
Vermouth: “…” It’s no problem to give it to you, but the problem is that you’re a greedy director. I’m afraid you’ll pack up both the gift and the giver. It’s better for me to handle it myself.
Besides, I gave it away before, but in the following period of time...
"Dr. Shindou" pushed his glasses and laughed, "Okay, we've been chatting for too long. If the FBI comes to her senses in a little while, she'll probably come after you for questioning. You might as well take the initiative to talk to her now, so you don't have to make up unnecessary excuses."
…
Theoretically, this was true, but today, Judy was treated too warmly. She used all her brainpower to analyze the reasons behind the sudden enthusiasm of these two high school girls towards her, and for a moment she really forgot to observe what Vermouth was doing.
When she finally remembered her job and wanted to sit next to Vermouth when she arrived at her seat, two female high school students were already there, one on each side, sandwiching her in the middle.
Judy: “……???”
You, what do you want to do?
…
Suzuki Sonoko is actually not very satisfied with the current formation.
——According to her expectations, the seats on her left and right would be best with Jiang Xia sitting on one side and Dr. Xinchu sitting on the other side, with her hugging him on both sides, which would be very wonderful.
But today, in order to take care of Teacher Judy, she had to give up one of them regretfully. After sitting down next to Teacher Judy, she patted the stool on the other side of her and brought Jiang Xia over.
"Dr. Arata" originally wanted to sit between Conan and Mouri Ran, but there were FBI nearby. If she deliberately went around them, her intention would be obvious. In the end, she had to compromise and sit down on the other side of Jiang Xia.
Seeing this scene, Judy's eyes twitched slightly: there were actually two people between her and her target... In this way, even if Vermouth secretly chatted with her colleagues on her mobile phone, she would not be able to see it.
On the other side, Conan was also dissatisfied: According to his idea, he should sit between Judy and Mr. Arata and observe these two suspicious persons closely. It would be even better if he could quietly place a bug or something, but now...
"What's going on between these two guys, Xiaolan and Sonoko?" Conan sighed as his plans were disrupted. He could only comfort himself that there was no need to rush into such things, and he reluctantly picked a seat and sat down.
