Chapter 483 Kidnapper Amuro Toru asks for monthly tickets (〃 )
The plan proposed by Yuya Kazami was to cut off Jiang Xia's communication with the outside world and suddenly take him to a random location, far away from Tokyo, so far that Jiang Xia didn't know anyone and couldn't set any possible traps in advance.
Then, under this situation, let’s see whether Jiang Xia will encounter a case like before.
...When he heard this suggestion, the first thought that flashed through Amuro Toru's mind was -
Outrageous.
But thinking about it afterwards, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it made sense.
...This seems to be the one with the simplest operation, the highest feasibility, and the most definite conclusion among the countless plans at present, and it will not cause much harm to all parties - he can completely package this trip as a confidential mission from the organization and reasonably take away Jiang Xia's communication tools. In this way, even if the suspicion is wrong, Jiang Xia should not think too much about it.
And today is the day to just go.
Toru Amuro walked into the office, looked at Jiang Xia, chose his words, and was about to speak.
But at this moment, the door was pushed open and a burly man rushed in in a hurry.
Toru Amuro: "..."
He silently glanced at the person who came and swallowed his words for the time being.
At the same time, he turned his head to look at the door of the detective agency, thinking with a little regret that he should have hung a "Closed" sign or lowered the roller shutter door when he came in just now... He used to hang up the "Closed" sign frequently, and he was very familiar with this operation, but since Jiang Xia came, he rarely used the sign, and now he didn't know where it was thrown - as long as Jiang Xia was in the agency, he would almost never refuse anyone and would not give up any customer.
Such a hardworking young man, I really don't want him to be a cadre of the organization...
Jiang Xia looked at Toru Amuro, then at the anxious guest, his face showing hesitation.
Toru Amuro remembered that he had not said anything yet and Jiang Xia would not be aware of the "leave at any time" plan, so he nodded to Jiang Xia, signaling him to go and receive the guests first, and he turned around habitually to make tea.
——If he forced Jiang Xia to ignore the guest, close the door and follow him, what if Jiang Xia is really Uzo, and the guest happens to be someone connected to Uzo, and spreads the news that Jiang Xia was taken away, Uzo's subordinates may take the opportunity to respond. In this way, Amuro Toru will have to guard against possible tracking and smoke bombs released by Uzo's subordinates on the road, there are too many variables.
It would be safer to wait a little longer until no one is around before starting to plan.
Hiss, why do I feel like a sneaky kidnapper...
Toru Amuro's thoughts were distracted for a brief moment, but he quickly returned to the main business.
——The guest who just came to our house, judging by his clothes, watch, and so on, seems to be a wealthy man with some social status.
In other words, he is someone who is eligible to be assassinated by the organization.
...This is also a good opportunity for observation.
——Although he had already decided to try out Yuya Kazami's "go wherever you want" plan, Amuro Toru's behavior patterns always made him instinctively want to avoid this metaphysical experimental method that sounded very unrigorous, and he was more inclined to observe on the spot, see the situation with his own eyes, and find the flaws - just like now.
While I was thinking, the water in the pot was already boiling.
Amuro Toru came back to his senses and turned off the switch skillfully.
Then he stared at the teacup.
...Why is he helping Jiang Xia again?
This agency is the "Amuro Detective Agency", right?
...Forget it, since it's my own office, I should do some work myself. The service industry is about serving customers. This is not being an employee, it's just embodying the spirit of service.
Amuro Toru sighed, brewed some tea and brought it to the table. Then, while the client wasn't paying attention, he took a cup for himself, sat aside to listen to the details, and secretly observed.
The man was a burly man, wearing a brown tailor-made suit and had a fierce moustache.
He glanced at the entrustment registration book that was handed to him along with the black tea and wrote his name on it.
The following entrustment reasons and so on are all left blank.
The guest threw down his pen and said anxiously, "I came to you because I'm being hunted by someone recently - I want you to find the killer and tell him to stop!"
Toru Amuro: "...?"
Being targeted and attempted assassination is not uncommon, after all, there are many people who have enemies... But the guest with the name "Chaobenzao" used very strange words.
"Find the killer", "Tell him to stop"...
How did he know that it was not a revenge killing, but that he was being targeted by a professional killer? Moreover, since he knew so clearly that he was being hunted, it meant that the killer must have already taken action. At this time, shouldn't he consider calling the police first...
Although he had many questions in his mind, Toru Amuro still remembered the main purpose of staying here to listen to the commission - to observe Jiang Xia.
He held the teacup in his hand and said nothing.
Jiang Xia, who was standing beside him, seemed to have noticed something unusual in the words and asked directly, "If you tell him to stop, will he really stop? Do you know the killer?"
Chao Wenzao sighed, and wiped his sweat with a handkerchief: "Five days ago, when I went for a physical examination, my gastric ulcer was misdiagnosed as advanced gastric cancer. I didn't want to wait for death in the hospital bed, so on an impulse, I hired the famous 'Silver Fox' to kill me.
"Who knew that after paying the deposit, that bastard doctor actually said he was wrong...
"I wanted to contact Silver Fox to stop, but I couldn't get in touch with him using the previous methods. When I looked for other ways to contact him, I inevitably saw some reports about him - he is really a very dangerous person. The more I read, the more anxious I became. I heard that detectives are very good at finding people, so I had to come to you and try."
Jiang Xia nodded thoughtfully: "I heard that in order to avoid leaking information, Silver Fox would cut off all unnecessary contacts after receiving an order, just like he was in seclusion. He is a very dedicated killer - no wonder you can't find him."
Amuro Toru glanced at Jiang Xia after hearing this. Dedicated? He actually used a compliment to describe a killer. After being tortured by the organization for so long, his thinking is still different from that of his peers...
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt a flash of reflection from the window of a building a hundred meters away from the corner of his eye.
“……”Is there someone over there?
...Sniper rifle?
…
When Jiang Xia saw the client's name, he had already recalled the information about the person involved in the case from his memory bank, and realized that there were ghosts and murderous aura to pick up this time.
So he was quite friendly to the customer, and at the same time, he glanced out the window because he remembered something.
Just when he vaguely determined the sniper's position, Toru Amuro suddenly stood up - he approached at a speed so fast that it was hard to see clearly, pushed Jiang Xia to the side, and pulled the customer along the way.
The heavy sofa was knocked to an angle, and the three people fell simultaneously into a blind spot.
