Chapter 3319 3331 [Graybara Ai's Move]
Soon, everyone, some happily and some not so happily, got into Dr. Agasa's Beetle.
The vehicle set off and drove towards the suburbs where the air was fresh.
Ai watched them leave, then turned around and planned to go back to the house alone. She looked up at the spacious house and suddenly felt a little deserted. At this moment, her phone suddenly vibrated and a message came in.
Haibara Ai was startled, and when she opened her phone, she saw that the message was from Jiang Xia who had just left:
[I guessed that your cold would get worse, so I contacted Xiaolan in advance and asked her to take care of the sick elementary school student who was home alone.
She'll be here to pick you up soon, so pack your things. The Maori Detective Agency is safe, so remember to always be with Ran.
Huiyuan Ai: “……?”
Although she looked like a child, Jiang Xia should have known that she was actually an adult. A minor illness like a cold didn't require anyone to take care of her.
Although Mao Lilan's personality and long black hair always remind her of her sister, and it is also comfortable to be with Mao Lilan...but it is better not to trouble others.
Haibara Ai wanted to reply like this, but before sending, the phone page suddenly refreshed and the email shattered by itself.
“?!”
Huiyuan Ai's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately realized that this must be a small setting like "burn after reading" that Jiang Xia had made up...
"Although Jiang Xia likes this feature very much, she rarely uses it when sending me daily emails." Huiyuan Ai pondered, "Could it be that the content of this email needs to be kept confidential? ... Is there another hidden reason behind this arrangement?"
As this thought flashed through her mind, she had to activate her brain, which was a little confused after catching a cold, and think seriously about it.
Soon, she thought of a strange place: "'The Maori Detective Agency is safe'...conversely, this place is not safe?"
Ai Haibara looked up at the empty house and suddenly felt a chill in her heart, as if there was something very scary hidden inside, but she couldn't see it.
After hesitating for a moment, Huiyuan Ai took out her phone and wanted to send an email to ask Jiang Xia. But then she thought, if she could tell Jiang Xia, she would have already told him, and now...
"Xiao Ai!"
Just as I was struggling, a voice sounded at the gate of the courtyard.
Ai Haibara looked in the direction of the voice and saw Ran Mouri standing outside, waving at her through the fence.
As the mixed-race little girl in plush pajamas turned around, Mao Lilan's eyes lit up. She felt that the dolls were even more exquisite than the rag dolls she liked when she was a child.
She looked at the cute little girl and said with a smile, "Why are you standing in the wind when you have a cold? Come quickly and go home with me. I will make you some porridge."
In the sunlight, her black hair was scattered on her shoulders, and her figure gradually overlapped with another shadow.
When she came to her senses, Haibara Ai discovered that she had been abducted to Maori's house.
Looking at the hot porridge in front of her, Huiyuan Ai: "..."
Never mind, it doesn't matter where I live - and Jiang Xia's judgment is always very accurate. Since even he said this place is better, I might as well stay at Mao Li's house for two days. Anyway...
Haibara Ai looked at Mouri Ran who was smiling and wrapping her in a small blanket, and was silent for a moment: "..." Anyway, this couldn't be considered a disturbance. After all, this childish high school girl seemed to be having a lot of fun.
…
On the other side, outside Tokyo.
Jiang Xia eliminated the possibility of Vermouth stealing the house. He put down his phone and began to concentrate on enjoying the journey.
Next to him, Dr. Agasa was driving, feeling a little sleepy: usually, there were noisy children, and screams from time to time. Although it was a bit noisy, it had to be said that it was quite refreshing. But now...
Looking at the three little guys who were as quiet as chickens in the back seat, and the fake little guy next to them who was not afraid of Jiang Xia but couldn't chat alone, Dr. Agasa shook his head helplessly.
"Hasn't it just happened that they saw Jiang Xia knocking people a few times? Why are these kids so scared?" He muttered to himself:
"The baton Jiang Xia used was modified by me personally. I'm pretty sure that just using a baton alone wouldn't be enough to cause a person to bleed. So, theoretically, the scene of Jiang Xia beating someone shouldn't be scary at all. It should just be a heroic act."
"Alas, maybe they are too young and get scared when they see fighting, so they can't tell who is good and who is evil. Anyway, let these children play with Jiang Xia more, and they should know that Jiang Xia is also a good kid."
The more Dr. Agasa thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was reliable, so he began to recall the arrangements for the next trip and prepared to coordinate the schedule with Jiang Xia. When taking the children out to play, he would take this innocent detective who did good things every day but was misunderstood by the children with him.
He was lost in thought when suddenly a voice entered his thoughts. Jiang Xia said calmly, "Doctor, step on the brakes."
"Hmm?" Dr. Agasa came back to his senses, looked at Jiang Xia, and then followed his gaze to the front.
The next moment, he suddenly saw a Mazda blocking the way ahead, and an RV further ahead of the Mazda - the two cars were parked in the middle of the road, motionless. As the Beetle moved forward, the distance between the two sides was rapidly shortening!
“!!!”
Dr. Agasa was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly stepped on the brakes, but it was too late. After slowing down, the vehicle failed to stop and crashed into the back of the Mazda with a bang.
The driver of that car reacted quickly. When he noticed the car behind him turned straight towards him, he immediately turned the steering wheel hard.
This allowed it to avoid the tragic ending of being sandwiched between two cars in front and behind. The white Mazda was pushed diagonally by the car behind and then successfully braked before hitting the tree.
"Sorry, sorry!" Dr. Agasa stopped the car and crawled out.
While apologizing to the unfortunate car, he couldn't help but glance at Jiang Xia through the windshield: "..." In this situation, wouldn't a normal person yell "Brake! Brake! Step on the brakes!!"? - What does "step on the brakes" mean? This kid is too calm!
But after a moment, Dr. Agasa remembered something and took a breath: Wait, my impression is that Jiang Xia doesn't seem to like car accidents. According to Conan, sometimes when he encounters a car accident scene nearby, he will even disconnect and hang up... So it seems that Jiang Xia has tried very hard to convey the message to himself before a car accident is about to happen!
Dr. Agasa, with tears in his eyes, instinctively turned a corner, ignoring the unlucky driver in front of him, and ran to the passenger seat.
Jiang Xia was about to open the door when she saw him coming. She looked at him through the car window in confusion: "?"
Dr. Agasa: "Are you okay?"
"I think this problem..." Jiang Xia pointed ahead, "We should ask the owner of that car first."
——It’s so hard to bump into someone, so don’t let him get away.
