Chapter 335 You've been in the aura for too long
Vermouth observed Jiang Xia's various reactions and narrowed her eyes slightly.
...There is a problem.
According to her previous investigation, neither the police nor the organization had ever seen Kudo Shinichi's body.
But now, Usa insisted that "Kudo Shinichi is dead."
Combined with Uzo's non-hostile attitude when mentioning "Kudo Shinichi" just now, Vermouth suddenly realized something and slowly came up with a guess - maybe cool guy is still alive! As his neighbor, Uzo knew this through some means, and now, he is trying to hide it from her, a member of the organization.
She suddenly felt a surge of joy in her heart.
Across the small table, Jiang Xia saw the subtle changes in her expression from the reflection of the dark table top and was quite satisfied with the result.
——During this conversation, he didn't reveal any secrets. Everything was muttered out by Vermouth alone.
Even if Vermouth spread the recording of today's conversation, Jiang Xia was just an optimistic cadre who "believed that Gin's work would not be wrong and that Kudo Shinichi, who was silenced by him, must be dead."
All that needed to be said had been said. Jiang Xia flipped through the "Manual for Recruiting Vermouth" in his mind and felt that he could proceed to the next step - quietly doing his own thing, letting Vermouth, who was clinging to him, soak in the aura magnified by her parents' ghosts for a while, and eliminate her unfounded hostility.
…
On the other side, Vermouth spoke again, wanting to confirm the surprise guess just now: "Dead? But I heard from people in your school that he was just out investigating a case and was too busy to get away - even if this is just a rumor, there should be some 'shadow' to support it."
As she spoke, she stared at the person opposite her with an oppressive look.
Uzo raised his head and looked at her silently.
After a moment, he suddenly yawned, pushed away the wine glass, slowly lay down on the table, and closed his eyes peacefully.
Vermouth: “……?”
...How could one suddenly fall asleep during such a serious confrontation? ?
——Get up and chat!
Vermouth reached out and pushed him across the table.
Wuzo moved his head and turned it to the other side, with his back to her, and ignored her.
Vermouth: "..."
Her fists could not help but harden, and the sharp fangs in her mouth rubbed against each other gently. While she was angry, she also regretted that she drank the wine too quickly and did not control the threshold well.
But for the time being, she really couldn't find an effective way to fight against the ultimate trick of "falling asleep". She stood up in a bad mood and planned to try again next time.
However, she suddenly discovered that as she picked up the bag on her seat, two wealthy, plump ladies at a nearby table simultaneously glanced over here covertly.
Based on the changes in their body directions and other subtle movements, Vermouth instantly realized that as soon as she left, the two people would immediately move to this table.
Vermouth: "..."
She froze in place, looking at Jiang Xia, then at the rich woman. For a moment, she was in an unprecedented dilemma.
…
One minute later.
Vermouth took a deep breath, walked around to the other side of the table, and planned to pull Jiang Xia up and take him away.
It’s not that they are worried that he will be abducted and do something strange, but they are mainly worried that he will talk nonsense and reveal the organization’s information, causing trouble for the organization.
Vermouth struggled to prepare herself mentally, but before she could touch Jiang Xia's arm, Jiang Xia suddenly "woke up".
He stood up, glanced at Vermouth, said "Thank you for the treat, I had a great time today", and turned to walk out of the bar.
"..." Belmode's hand stretched in the air froze for a moment. After a moment, a vein slowly appeared on her forehead.
…
Jiang Xia asked the waiter at the front desk, "When did you get into the bar?" and pushed the door open under a complicated gaze.
He looked down at the phone in his pocket, thought for a moment, and instead of going home, he went to a nearby hotel.
It's still early, not the peak time for check-in. Behind the counter, there is only one receptionist.
Jiang Xia looked at her, took out the banknotes and put them on the counter: "No reservation, just book a room."
No ID was required to check in. However, the hotel had no single rooms left, so the front desk gave him a card for a king-size bed room.
Jiang Xia turned and went upstairs, leaving a slightly dazed receptionist behind.
The receptionist quietly watched Jiang Xia's back as he walked towards the elevator, and began to wonder whether this drunk young man was over 20 years old. Drinking under 20 seemed to be illegal...
As he was watching, he saw Jiang Xia step into the elevator when a drunk woman approached with her long legs like the wind. Then, the moment the elevator door closed, she quickly slipped into the elevator.
front desk:"?!"
There were clearly two empty elevators parked on the first floor. Why did that woman insist on squeezing into the occupied one?
She thought of Jiang Xia's appearance and the scary stalker-like woman just now, and instinctively turned her head to look at the phone next to her and the "1" and "0" buttons on it.
…
When the girl at the front desk was caught in a vortex of "wanting to be brave but not daring enough".
On the other side, in the elevator.
Jiang Xia glanced at Vermouth who had followed him, and took advantage of her murderous aura, then gave her an unwelcome look: "Anything else?"
"Nothing, I'm just a little sleepy, and I want to find a place nearby to rest." Vermouth leaned against the smooth metal wall of the elevator, her eyes slowly sweeping over Jiang Xia's legs, across his pockets, and finally stopping at the room card. She blinked ambiguously, "Since we are colleagues, why don't you give me half of your king-size bed room?"
…Just now, when Vermouth tricked the man into the bar, what she was actually thinking was “kill him after getting the information.”
But now, the information she got out was inconsistent with her previous expectation that "Usa was harming Kudo Shinichi and getting close to Mao Lilan"...
Although she always felt that, at the moment, she and Uzo should not be enemies.
But her reason reminded her: this matter concerns the life and death of Cool Guy and Angel, and must not be taken lightly - she must further confirm Uzo's attitude towards the two people, and finally decide whether to take the risk of killing them.
The elevator arrived soon.
Vermouth discovered that perhaps because she had mentioned "Kudo Shinichi" frequently just now, Uzo's attitude towards her was obviously much more repulsive than when they first met.
At this time, the young man really ignored her. As soon as the elevator arrived, he went straight out. Vermouth walked out at the same time, but unfortunately "tripped" and bumped into him.
Wuzo might have drunk too much just now, so his movements were not as agile as usual, and he was hit. He frowned and stood firm, raised his hand to push Vermouth away, and continued to walk towards the room.
Vermouth laughed softly and did not follow him.
After watching Jiang Xia enter the room, Vermouth looked at her hands and found that there were two more mobile phones in her hands.
——Jiang Xia’s cell phone.
…
Jiang Xia entered the room and poured out all the wine in his stomach.
This amount of liquor, mixed with various carbonated drinks, could probably knock down a leopard if drunk. No wonder Vermouth was so convinced that he was drunk.
His pockets were a little empty, and his cell phone was missing. But at this time, there was no information about "Belmaud is not suitable" in his two cell phones.
Usually, the confidential communication records are specially shattered with the black technology plug-in given by Dr. Agasa. The only one who is relatively dangerous is Huiyuan Ai - Vermouth has wanted to kill her for a long time.
However, Jiang Xia did not save Haibara Ai's account number. Haibara Ai usually did not sign her name when she sent messages to him. What she said did not sound like that of a member of an organization at all, so it was really difficult to expose her.
And if it was really so unfortunate that Vermouth had doubts about Uzo's social circle... then she would be knocked out in disguise before she could get the key information. Who told her to look through other people's phones?
