Chapter 35 You are all Jiang Xia's accomplices
Ran Mouri was still struggling over whether or not to cancel Sonoko's invitation today and accompany Conan to take the statement.
Now that Jiang Xia has arrived, the problem is solved immediately.
…
Soon, Mao Lilan took Conan downstairs. She left the children to Jiang Xia without any worries, and then walked to the bus stop without any worries, ready to meet Suzuki Sonoko for the appointment.
…
Jiang Xia led the four case magnets to the police station alone.
As a glorious spoiler, Jiang Xia was mentally prepared for the toughness of the Junior Detective Team.
But along the way, things turned out to be beyond his expectations.
The children did not hug his legs and shout things like "Please give me some eel rice!", nor did they surround him and chatter and ask questions, nor did they run around everywhere.
Instead, they were very well-behaved, consciously stopping at red lights and going at green lights, giving way to pedestrians, and the only thing missing was them lining up and shouting 121 and marching in unison.
…
Along the way, Jiang Xia turned his head with a hint of surprise and looked at them several times, almost suspecting that they were a bunch of fake children who had been shrunk by APTX4869.
Then he discovered that the more he looked, the quieter it became.
In the end, even the occasional whispers disappeared.
Jiang Xia: “……?”
Although I don’t know what happened, it was surprisingly reassuring.
…
It has been drizzling today.
When they were almost at the intersection, Jiang Xia found that Xiaobai, who had been lying listlessly on his shoulder, suddenly became alert. He raised his short hands to wipe the corners of his mouth, and even tried to wipe his mouth by pulling Jiang Xia's collar.
Jiang Xia was silent for a moment, then flicked it away with one finger.
After landing, Xiaobai floated back up and climbed back onto Jiang Xia without getting discouraged.
Soon, Jiangxia received the message it wanted to convey - mushroom soup base.
Jiang Xia was stunned, then understood.
He looked around and found that a few dozen meters ahead, there was a man in a black raincoat walking towards them.
It was the murderous doctor Feng Hu who smelled like hot pot.
In addition to a raincoat, Dr. Feng Hu also wore a hat and a mask today. The brim of the hat was pulled down very low and the mask was pulled up very high, covering most of his face and leaving only his eyes exposed.
…
Although this outfit is a bit strange, it is not easy to be noticed under the umbrella on a rainy day.
Kyosuke Fudo went out today wrapped up tightly in his clothes, and his target was certainly not Jiang Xia.
He adjusted the brim of his hat and quickly walked to a telephone booth.
There's someone in the phone booth.
When Kyosuke Fudo approached, the man in the pavilion had just finished a phone call and pushed the door open to come out.
The moment the door opened, Kyosuke Fudo suddenly pulled out a gun and fired several shots at the man.
The man in the phone booth covered his chest and fell down with a painful look on his face.
A series of screams of "Ah--!!!" were heard behind Jiang Xia. Obviously, the children also saw this scene.
Almost at the same time, the men in black with guns rushed towards Jiang Xia and the child.
…
At this time, Kyosuke Fudo could only run in this direction because there were several big men chasing him in other directions.
Among the group of muscular men chasing the man, one was a decadent uncle who was buying cigarettes in the store just now, and two were bored office workers passing by... However, at this moment, these people chased the murderer without hesitation and with amazing momentum. They did not look like brave passers-by at all, but more like plainclothes police who had planned it for a long time.
Kyosuke Fudo suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
He realized that something seemed to be wrong, but he had no idea what.
Fortunately, before this, those plainclothes officers were just following him normally and did not form an encirclement.
Kyosuke Fudo who was running wildly: “…” That means he still has a chance to escape!
…
Kyosuke Fudo looked at Jiang Xia in front of him, and paid special attention to the children next to Jiang Xia. He planned to grab a hostage when passing by to buy himself some time to escape.
Jiang Xia glanced at the masked man rushing over and said to the four children, "Stand behind me."
The three children were still struggling over whether or not to rush over to stop the murderer.
Jiang Xia suddenly spoke at this moment. Before they could react, their bodies took a step forward in unison and hid to the side of the road.
Conan had no intention of giving way.
He was just about to grab a potted plant from the roadside and kick it over to subdue the criminal. However, before he could touch the pot, his arms suddenly felt tight - Yuantai and Mitsuhiko held him on each side and quickly pulled him to the roadside.
Conan couldn't struggle free and had to be pulled away by the two men. A few days ago, if Conan had shouted "Let go!", the naughty kids might have listened.
But now, with Jiang Xia's words in mind, nothing Conan says will be of any use.
Instead, after he shouted "Let go", Yuan Tai covered his mouth with his hand. Yuan Tai nervously whispered: "Be honest, if you don't listen, you will become a pig head."
Conan: "...&*%¥#!"
…
It’s a distance of dozens of meters, and it won’t take too long for an adult to rush over at full speed.
Fenghu Kyosuke raised the muzzle of his gun and changed his voice to shout at Jiang Xia: "Get out of the way!"
Jiang Xia took a step to the side.
Kyosuke Fudo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it seemed that Jiang Xia was just an ordinary person who was afraid of guns.
When passing by Jiangxia, the doctor stretched out his hand with long-planned intention, wanting to randomly grab an unlucky child as a hostage.
However, before his fingertips could touch anyone, his neck suddenly tightened and his whole body flew backwards, with the world turning upside down.
——Jiang Xia grabbed Fuuto Kyosuke's collar from behind, and using his momentum, swung him in a half circle and threw him heavily to the ground.
Kyosuke Fudo fell flat on the ground with a thud, and the bricks on the sidewalk trembled twice.
He saw stars, his head was buzzing, and blood was flowing from his nose. After several seconds, the blur in his vision gradually faded away.
Kyosuke Fudo was in pain and confused, and struggled to get up.
But at this moment, a shadow suddenly appeared in front of his eyes - Jiang Xia walked to his side, looked down at him, and suddenly kicked him on the wrist.
The gun drew an arc, was kicked out, and landed seven or eight meters away.
On the ground, Fenghu Kyosuke roared in pain and tried to stand up. However, before he could find his balance, he was hit in the waist again and staggered and fell down again.
…
Except for the first blow, Jiang Xia did not use much force. The force was only slightly heavier than that of a massage, just like a cautious and courageous citizen.
But Kyosuke Fudo kept struggling, but couldn't get up at all.
He fell to the ground, watching the plainclothes officers getting closer and closer, his eyes red with anxiety, and after another failed attempt to stand up, he let out a helpless and furious shout: "Jiang Xia!!!"
Beside them, Yuantai and Mitsuhiko were startled.
"..."The murderer who killed people with a gun in the street actually knew Brother Jiang Xia, and was tossed around like a tumbler as soon as they met... No, it was not a tumbler.
...It was indeed a very smart decision to choose to listen to Brother Jiang Xia just now.
The two little boys looked at each other and silently held Conan tighter in their hands, feeling that they were doing a good deed every day and saving their classmates.
…
Jiang Xia felt a large group of high-grade murderous aura at his feet, and he was in a very good mood. And the more he knocked, the more murderous aura Fudo Kyosuke became - now the doctor wanted to kill not only the police, but also Jiang Xia, the "passerby" who blocked his way.
Jiang Xia originally wanted to knock for a long time.
Unfortunately, after Fudo Kyosuke called out his name, he couldn't pretend not to know him anymore...
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia was slightly stunned, hesitated and stepped back, carefully looking at the person on the ground.
When Kyosuke Fudo tried to get up again, he just watched silently without stopping him.
