Chapter 455 Huiyuan Ai is a good undercover (Monthly ticket plus more)
Unable to ambush the witch, Jiang Xia turned around and looked for Kidd a few more times - seriously speaking, Kidd's place is actually one of the possible spawn points for the witches. In addition, you can also come to Kidd to get a little magic power.
As for why he knew the address of Kidd's family...
Jiang Xia had indeed never followed anyone by driving the Mist Tengu. He had just gone to Jianggutian High School to wait for the witch and took a look at the files in the archives. The addresses of the students were recorded there, including Kidd's information.
Kidd heard the noise on the balcony in the middle of the night, opened the sliding door, and saw the uninvited guest coming to his door. He didn't seem too surprised. There was a hint of resignation in his calmness, "I knew it..."
However, after going there several times, Kidd failed to bring good news to Jiang Xia - he has not yet contacted his easygoing mother.
Once when Jiang Xia drove the Mist Tengu to visit a friend, Terai Huang Zhisuke happened to be at Kid's house.
Seeing the huge wings of the flapping fan blocking more than half of the balcony when it fell, the old man's expression changed from kind to terrified, and finally he opened a box of quick-acting heart pills on the spot with a distorted face... Fortunately, his heart seemed to be exceptionally strong, and he finally didn't take drugs and got through it on his own.
After that, the old man bought a mobile phone for the Mist Tengu overnight, saying that he could use it to contact him if he had anything to do, instead of always coming to his house in person - the occupancy rate in this neighborhood was very high. Terai Huangzhisuke was worried that if the man-eating Mist Tengu suddenly got hungry one day, he would see the delicious residents in the houses on the street and break through the wall as the legend said, pick up a favorite and take it home, and hang it on the tree as food to fill his stomach...
Jiang Xia glanced at the frightened Terai Huang Zhisuke, then looked at the mobile phone wrapped as a gift, and accepted it.
Of course, he didn't take the phone home, he just found a place to hide it.
After that, he went to see Kidd as usual.
After all, it is impossible to collect magic power through the phone - although Kidd does not know how to use magic yet, he seems to have mastered some methods of producing magic power.
Although compared to the two witches, Kidd's magic power is very weak.
But I'm just sitting around doing nothing anyway, so instead of waiting for cases in boredom, I might as well come here regularly to harvest some magic power and give myself something to do...
…
However, Kidd's magic power grows slowly after all, so he cannot go there too often, and his days are still not fulfilling enough.
So these days, Jiang Xia also took time to do some other things.
For example, he sent a batch of idol peripherals to Mouri Kogoro - these peripherals were exclusive and out-of-print products sent by Yoko Kinoshita, and Mouri Kogoro was a crazy fan of Yoko Kinoshita... While Mouri Kogoro was happy, Jiang Xia took the opportunity to inquire about his next travel plans.
Then Kogoro Maori happily told Jiang Xia that he planned to stay at home until he could recite the albums, magazines, etc. that Jiang Xia brought by heart.
...Jiang Xia left disappointed.
I secretly decided that I would only give key chains, posters and other items as gifts, and would never give anything that was just for show.
In addition, Mao Lilan did not win the new travel prize. Suzuki Sonoko has no plans to stay in the new villa for the time being.
I sent an email to Gin asking if he had any tasks, but he ignored me. The same went for Vodka.
Jiang Xia even took the time to go to school to see if Vermouth had successfully sneaked into their school, but the answer he got was no.
After sending messages to ask indirectly, this mysterious witch of a thousand faces only said that she was currently busy dealing with the FBI, and after she had dealt with those annoying people, she would invite Jiang Xia over to slowly mix the drinks.
As for Amuro Toru...
Jiang Xia looked at the address book, but didn't press the dial button in the end, and decided not to actively look for him in the near future. After all, at this stage, due to the incidents of Tsukikage Island and Uzo, Amuro Toru's attention to him is already high enough. If there is really a case, he would have already found it long ago, so there is no need to go out of his way to find him...
Jiang Xia roughly counted the people in a circle and eliminated them one by one.
Finally, only a few young figures remained in my mind.
——Those naughty kids who are very likely to attract cases.
...This seems worth a try.
And he remembered that he had promised to take the children to the movies for Professor Agasa before. But at that time, they were delayed a lot of time because of several incredible events at Teitan Elementary School, so they were unable to go out successfully.
Afterwards, I took a few kids to visit the photography studio in Gomera. As a result, I didn't watch the photography process at all. Instead, I watched a murder case... So strictly speaking, this trip was still not a success.
In this case, Jiang Xia thought it would be reasonable to take the children out to see a movie to make up for the regret. This is also what a mature and responsible adult should do - if you promise, you must do it.
Jiang Xia nodded secretly and entered Huibara Ai's phone number.
——If he invited them directly, those children would probably shyly refuse him.
It would be better to find the people directly and invite them face to face when the children are playing together. It would be difficult for them to refuse such a sincere attitude.
Today happens to be the weekend, which is the usual time for the Junior Detective Team to get together.
As a member of the Junior Detective League, Haibara Ai might know which neighborhood the kids are in right now.
…
I pressed the dial button and the call was connected quickly.
From the receiver, there was a sound of the oven running from Haibara Ai's side, followed by the sound of the door closing with a click.
Huiyuan Ai left the kitchen, and a disembodied voice came through the receiver:
"Jiang Xia? What's wrong?"
Jiang Xia had just sent away the last cat stranded in the office and was now locking the door.
He fiddled with the door lock with one hand and held the phone with the other, and asked Huihara Ai in a brisk tone:
"Are your friends doing anything today? I remembered that I promised to take them out to play, but I haven't had time to fulfill my promise yet. It's a good time to make an appointment to go out together - I haven't seen them for a long time, and I miss them a lot."
Huiyuan Ai: “……?”
...Long time no see?
She remembered seeing her at the police station a few days ago. When the kids saw Jiang Xia, they instinctively shrank behind her.
After that, Huiyuan Ai went to play with Jiang Xia and the Siamese cat, and didn't pay attention to whether the children went to say hello to Jiang Xia...
At this moment, Haibara Ai thought of the common reactions of the children when they saw Jiang Xia, and also thought of Jiang Xia's sincere inquiry just now, and fell into deep thought.
I have to say, Jiang Xia is quite good at finding people. She actually knows where those kids are now...
——After all, she is also a member of the Junior Detective League. Every time there is a group activity, Haibara Ai can receive news from the badge or in person.
Afterwards, no matter whether Haibara Ai attends or not, the three children will solemnly add to her and Conan, "Don't tell Jiang Xia brother."
And now...
