Chapter 3316 3328 [Flag Planting]
"It's actually about Teacher Judy." Mao Lilan lowered her head, fiddling with the pebbles on the ground with the tip of her shoe, and said in confusion:
"During the boxing match, didn't you and Conan go to the backstage restroom and then encounter a murder? At about that time, Teacher Judy suddenly stood up in the competition venue, and her expression became a little strange... Her expression was very similar to when she saw a murder before."
"Then she suddenly said she had to go to the bathroom. We followed her backstage and then we saw a murder taking place there..."
Jiang Xia understood and nodded. "Because Teacher Judy knew that a murder had occurred backstage, but she didn't say it directly. Instead, she rushed to the crime scene under the pretext of going to the restroom... So you suspect that there's something wrong with her source of information, and maybe she's planted a bug on us?"
Mao Lilan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: It's great to have a detective friend. He guessed everything before I could even organize my words.
In this case, Jiang Xia must be able to guess the reason why Teacher Judy is acting strangely.
The uneasiness that Mao Lilan had accumulated tonight gradually dissipated. She looked at Jiang Xia expectantly, hoping to get an answer like "You misunderstood."
Unfortunately, Jiang Xia did not immediately say that Teacher Judy was innocent.
The famous detective simply thought about it carefully, then said objectively, "There are indeed some strange things about Teacher Judy. She must have a lot of secrets."
“…” Mao Lilan’s heart skipped a beat.
The reliability of Jiang Xia's words was beyond doubt. Could it be that Teacher Judy really...
Jiang Xia: "But at the moment, Teacher Judy hasn't done anything bad to us - as long as her secret has nothing to do with us, let's just pretend it doesn't exist. As for what happened today..."
Jiang Xia shook his phone and said, "I check my phone regularly, so there shouldn't be any problems. Actually, if I think about it rationally, Teacher Judy might have gotten the news from somewhere else—perhaps one of her friends happened to be watching the game at the venue and happened to discover the murder."
"Of course, to be on the safe side, you can also have Conan give his phone to Dr. Agasa for inspection. If you don't want the child to know about these dark sides of society, just have him hand the phone over to Dr. Agasa. I will inform the doctor in advance."
Mao Lilan: “…” “Just right” and “just right” superimposed, the probability that Teacher Judy has no problems is so slim.
And based on the personality that Teacher Judy usually displays, if she really had friends at the venue, she should have gone over and greeted them in a high-profile manner.
...But no matter what, this is at least a very good possibility. Mao Lilan had no choice but to suppress the many questions in her heart, said goodbye to Jiang Xia and Huiyuan Ai, and returned to the Mao Li Detective Agency with a heavy heart.
After she left, Huiyuan Ai looked up at Jiang Xia: "That teacher Judy..."
Jiang Xia knew what she wanted to ask: "There's nothing wrong with her. She's just an enthusiastic person against the organization."
"..." Huiyuan Ai hesitated, "But don't forget that you are still a member of the organization. If this is the case, then the people she is targeting may also include you."
Jiang Xia smiled and shook his head: "I'm not under her jurisdiction." Because within the FBI, Uzo seemed to be assigned to Akai Shuichi... Of course, this is not the point. The point is that the innocent detective has something to do with Uzo?
Just as they were finishing their meal, Jiang Xia looked at his watch and didn't stay any longer: "I'll go back first. By the way, things don't seem to be too peaceful recently. If you encounter any problems, remember to contact me at any time."
Haibara Ai nodded and was about to speak when she suddenly sneezed.
Jiang Xia glanced at her and said, "Do you have a cold? I felt that you looked listless when we were eating just now."
Huiyuan Ai rubbed her nose and said, "It may be the sequelae of the recent adjustment of work and rest schedule. It doesn't matter. I cooked some egg custard. It should be fine after eating and taking a nap."
It would have been fine if Jiang Xia hadn't mentioned it, but now that she was talking about it, Huiyuan Ai's eyelids suddenly felt heavy and her eyelashes fluttered. She yawned again, wrapped her furry nightcap around her, and waved goodbye to Jiang Xia: "I'm going home first."
Jiang Xia watched her carry Miyano Akemi on her head into the house, then turned and walked towards her own yard.
After a while, when he fell asleep, Miyano Akemi also came back.
She looked a little worried because of her sister's cold symptoms.
"Don't worry, it won't develop into a serious illness." Jiang Xia yawned and turned on the lamp. According to the mysterious convention, this cold should be a preparation for the coming storm. When this is over, Huiyuan Ai will naturally get better.
He counted the ghost fetuses next to him and the one who was temporarily out of the group, and soon fell asleep contentedly.
…
Day 2.
Jiang Xia went next door to have breakfast and saw that Huibara Ai's cold was indeed a little worse than last night.
The mini scientist blew her nose dizzily, the tip of her nose turning red from being rubbed with the paper. She threw the paper into the trash can, picked up her knife and fork, and was about to cut the fried egg on the plate when Huiyuan Ai suddenly remembered something and looked at Jiang Xia: "Will this infect you? How about packing it in a lunch box and taking it home to eat."
"It's okay. Breakfast is best eaten hot." Jiang Xia smiled. "And don't worry, I have a strong constitution and won't catch a cold."
Huiyuan Ai was about to say something else when a child suddenly opened the door, rushed in, and ran straight to Jiang Xia: "What's wrong with Xiaolan?"
Jiang Xia looked at Conan, dragged the juice cup from near him to himself, and said, "What's going on?"
Conan's nose twitched, and he politely grabbed a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth, wondering, "She suddenly went out last night, and when I asked her, she said she forgot something at the doctor's place. Xiaolan doesn't come here often, so how could she have forgotten something here?"
"When I asked again, she said that Dr. Agasa asked her to remind me that my phone had a problem and asked me to send it to Dr. Agasa for inspection tomorrow - that is, today."
"This is too weird!" Conan felt that there were loopholes everywhere. "My phone is faulty, how could I not know? And if Dr. Agasa really found something, he would have texted or called me. Why would he go through Xiaolan?"
"Anyway!" Conan ate something and his hunger eased. He wiped his mouth and looked at Jiang Xia with a look of anticipation, "The problem must have been yesterday! - Was there something wrong with the case yesterday? In fact, when I was solving the case, I felt that Xiaolan was a little strange. She kept looking at Teacher Judy."
