Chapter 3359 3371 [Tear up the script]
"Jiang Xia?" Mao Lilan was stunned for a moment before she confirmed the person who was speaking by the voice.
She was confused for a moment, her face full of questions: "Why are you with Shinichi? Isn't he out of town solving a case?"
When Conan heard this, alarm bells rang in his heart, and he gestured towards Jiang Xia with excitement.
And Jiang Xia really lived up to his expectations, and quickly found a reasonable reason: "His phone was broken, so he sent it back to have the doctor fix it."
Conan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling grateful for having survived a disaster.
"So that's how it is." On the other end of the phone, Mao Lilan believed it: Shinichi really did run to Dr. Agasa whenever he had something to do since he was a child, and that kind and enthusiastic neighbor also helped him make props a lot.
Now that his cell phone is broken, he sends it all the way to Dr. Agasa to repair it, which is in line with Shinichi's habit - who knows if his cell phone has also been modified by Dr. Agasa, and can only be repaired by sending it back to the original factory?
I was muttering to myself when the enthusiastic classmate opposite me asked a soul-searching question: "What happened to you?"
Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment: "This..."
Glancing at the pitiful Nanakawa Xuan next to her, she sighed and lowered her voice: "Sonoko and I were with Teacher Judy. When we came to the convenience store, we..."
"Which convenience store?" Jiang Xia was more enthusiastic than she expected. "I'll be there right away."
"No, no!" Mao Lilan refused firmly, "There is no murder, it's just a small matter."
She was about to explain the whole story as quickly as possible, but at this moment, her hand was empty. Judy took her phone and hung up.
The timing chosen by this foreign teacher was so clever that, combined with her last sentence, it seemed as if she had hung up the phone herself.
Mao Lilan was stunned. She didn't expect Teacher Judy to be so direct. Her eyes changed slightly, and her body tensed quietly, ready to fight back.
However, after taking the phone away, Judy did not take any other extreme actions.
The teacher simply made a mysterious "hush" sound, then said seriously, "As a teacher, I want to teach you one final lesson - when you encounter a difficult problem, you must think carefully on your own, instead of immediately asking for help from others at the slightest setback."
...It would be fine to ask for help from Kudo Shinichi, but how did he end up asking Jiang Xia for help?
The increasingly frequent coincidences made people very uneasy, so Judy quietly took action and disrupted the process of summoning Jiang Xia.
After a brief moment of distraction, she looked at the two students across from her and said righteously, "Let the three of us figure out a way to solve this problem!"
Suzuki Sonoko sighed in her heart: "..." Teacher Judy really wants to solve a case...Okay, but if the matter cannot be solved in the end, then for Xiao Xuan's innocence, she can only find Jiang Xia.
"Also..." Thinking of Ran Maoli's call of "Jiang Xia" just now, Suzuki Sonoko asked in confusion, "Didn't you call Kudo? Why is Jiang Xia answering the phone?"
Judy's ears pricked up as well.
Mao Lilan smiled when she saw this: "Maybe they just happened to meet each other - well, let's find a way to solve the case as soon as possible."
At the same time, she glanced at the weird teacher Judy with a bit of confusion: Does this somewhat strange foreign teacher want to get close to Jiang Xia?
If she wanted to, why did she hang up the phone and not let Jiang Xia come over?
There seem to be more and more doubts...
…
Of the three reinforcements present, two were preoccupied with thoughts, and only Suzuki Sonoko was concentrating on solving the case.
“Because of the surveillance and the store manager’s supervision, we can rule out the possibility that the thief was an outsider.
"The items lost were varied, ranging from snacks and lunch boxes to game software and even toiletries. None of the three guests would need such a wide variety of items, so they can be ruled out..."
Suzuki Sonoko muttered, analyzing various possibilities: "Come to think of it, I remember Xiaoxuan loves snacks, drinks, and playing games..."
"Sonoko!" Mao Lilan quickly came back to her senses after hearing the wrong tone. She interrupted, "We are here to prove Xiaoxuan's innocence, not to arrest her!"
"Ahaha, I know!" Suzuki Sonoko scratched her head guiltily, "I'm just trying to think like Jiang Xia, trying to think like a detective..."
If I remember correctly, Jiang Xia had just caught a junior high school classmate: Takamori Masumi not long ago.
...Alas, when necessary, only by disowning all relatives can the truth be found. In this regard, Xiaolan is still too naive.
Thinking of this, Suzuki Sonoko patted her friend's shoulder with a vicissitudes of life look.
Mao Lilan didn't know where her childhood friend used her extraordinary imagination.
She shook her head helplessly, took her phone back from Judy, and while preparing to tell Jiang Xia that Teacher Judy hung up the phone, she was thinking seriously about the case in front of her.
"Although Sonoko's ideas are a bit vague, there is one thing she is right about," Mao Lilan thought secretly, "'Put yourself in the detective's mindset', the detective's mindset..."
What is Jiang Xia’s thinking when solving cases?
...He seems to have no thoughts. My impression is that as long as he sees the necessary clues, Jiang Xia can immediately output a set of correct answers, making the criminals kneel down and cry, and letting the police go home happily.
If Jiang Xia fails to solve the case, it means that the clues found by the police are not complete enough.
Forget it, I can’t learn this one, let’s try another one.
Ran Mao Li began to think about Kudo Shinichi's steps to solve the case.
As she thought about it, a sentence emerged in her mind.
"If you want to solve a case, you first need to identify any differences from the usual. The occurrence of an incident is always accompanied by corresponding anomalies. Therefore, the first step in solving a case is to observe carefully and identify these 'anomalies'."
"Even if it's a seemingly insignificant detail, as long as it's slightly different from usual, we must pay the greatest attention. Because the more ordinary the details are, the less likely they are to be abnormal."
"Unusual, unusual..." Mao Lilan muttered like chanting a mantra, "If there is one thing that is different from usual, it is that every time something is lost, it is when Xiao Xuan is on duty."
Thinking of this, she asked Nanakawa Xuan: "Xiao Xuan, when you are on duty, do you have any habits that are different from others?"
"Different habits?" Nanakawa Xuan hesitated. "I don't think so. I just go to work and clean like everyone else."
"Is that so?" Mao Lilan looked at the store manager unwillingly. "A bystander sees more clearly. What do you think is different about Xiao Xuan from other employees? - Except for the fact that she loses things while on duty!"
