Chapter 502: Amuro Toru's Journey into Hell
Amuro Toru analyzed the situation calmly. Then he realized that if he could not come to a conclusion that was convincing enough to convince himself, then in the future, to be on the safe side, he would have to deal with Jiang Xia in the same way as he dealt with organizational cadres, and find an excuse to get him to leave the office.
And if Jiang Xia was not Wu Zuo... Treating an innocent student who yearns for a normal life with the attitude of a criminal, I always feel a little guilty.
Although the detection method of "testing the physical constitution of the incident" sounds outrageous, it is not what a police officer who attaches importance to physical evidence should do.
But if you think about it carefully, the most suspicious thing about Jiang Xia, apart from the fact that his movements overlapped with Gin's in Tottori Prefecture, isn't the most important point that "cases often occur around Jiang Xia"?
In other words, if the opposite were true - if Jiang Xia had not made any plans at all and the case still happened to him, then to some extent, this "major doubt" would no longer be considered a doubt.
And most importantly, for Toru Amuro, this testing method is almost zero cost.
——Amuro Toru happened to be out on business, so he did this experiment while he was there. At most, he would take a detour and delay the trip for a day or two, and bring a group of subordinates with him to help monitor. It would be a waste if he didn't try it. Anyway, his subordinates were usually free, so he just treated it as a training session.
And if he tried, as long as he encountered one or two cases along the way and confirmed Jiang Xia's incident-prone physique, he would no longer have to be on guard against Jiang Xia without any evidence - suspecting the people around him was itself a very energy-consuming thing.
"Emergency mission?"
Jiang Xia always felt that Amuro Toru probably wanted to say the same thing the last time he came to the agency.
...But if it was really urgent, would the boss leisurely accompany the client to climb the mountain two days ago?
...suspicious, in short, very suspicious.
He suspected that this was an excuse for Toru Amuro to take some action against him, but unfortunately there was no evidence.
Speaking of which, I don’t know what decision the boss made after investigating for so many days without any evidence that “Jiang Xia planned the case”.
If I follow Amuro Toru now, I won't be sent directly to the juvenile detention center or the National Police Agency, right?
In that case, we have to consider using puppets to break into the prison. Then when rescuing the main body, we can capture the boss as well. When we catch Akai Shuichi later, we can lock the two of them up door to door as neighbors, creating a murderous perpetual motion machine to barely make up for the loss of the identity of the famous detective Red Fang...
However, it is unlikely that we will be able to break into the prison at this stage.
In the absence of evidence, even if the police in this world arrested someone, they would not be able to keep him for too long and would have to release him again after a while... This might even be a trap specifically used to hook people - the police wanted to see if anyone would come to silence him or break into the prison after Jiang Xia, the suspicious individual, was taken away.
In short, let's go and take a look at the specific situation before making a decision.
A series of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Jiang Xia did not ask any more questions.
He put down the pillow, stood up, and prepared to get in the car.
Toru Amuro was slightly stunned when he saw Jiang Xia's smooth movements.
...He was ready to point a gun at Jiang Xia and force him into the car like a villain in the organization if Jiang Xia refused or evaded. He didn't expect Jiang Xia to follow him so smoothly.
Come to think of it, Jiang Xia really seemed to like being invited out. He might really think there was a commission or a mission...
When Toru Amuro thought about how he used false tasks to oppress his subordinates who were so obedient to his orders, he suddenly felt like an unscrupulous teacher who threatened his students to help him do something bad... His conscience began to hurt.
However, as a seasoned undercover agent, he quickly suppressed his conscience as if nothing had happened.
After Jiang Xia walked out of the office and got into his car parked at the door, Toru Amuro locked the store door, got in the car, and set off for a random destination.
…
Jiang Xia didn't ask any extra questions. He propped up his chin and looked outside the car, thinking about the method that Amuro Toru might have come up with to "detect that Jiang Xia = Usa", and his subsequent actions.
As he watched, he found that the car passed the police station without stopping, passed through the busy streets, and drove all the way to the suburbs...
It looked like he was planning to leave the city.
...Is there really a mission?
...or some path he had not envisioned?
Jiang Xia was slightly stunned, and then felt a little surprised.
When Jiang Xia thought of "Toru Amuro" and "leaving the city", the next thing he thought of was "flat tire".
——If you think about it carefully, every time they travel through the suburbs with their boss, they always pass by some murderous or ghostly places.
Jiang Xia suddenly remembered the murderous aura and Shikigami in the mountains a few days ago, and once again recalled Amuro Toru's magical physique that was like a double experience card.
The boss's ability to attract cases doesn't seem to be outstanding.
But every time I meet Conan and the others, if Toru Amuro is present, the number of cases will often increase magically, starting with two.
In this case, I'll just forget about the 100 million yen I promised to hand over to Gin tonight...
Anyway, they had only agreed to hand over the money, so Gin probably wouldn't have reserved too much time for this matter. Cancelling it wouldn't delay anything, and it would also allow Gin to use the free time to rest, which would also be good for the health of the hardworking model...
And now, since he already knows that the organization's funds can impress Gin, even if Gin is fooled and gets angry and doesn't want the 100 million yen and refuses to see him, he can still look for other treasure hiding places.
If 100 million is not enough, then 200 million. If 200 million is not enough, then 400 million… The anger of being stood up can always be extinguished by money, and it comes with a wave of murderous aura generated when the anger burns.
The thing that this world lacks the most is treasure. As long as there is enough money, even if Gin doesn't want to come, the boss will probably let him come over...
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia took out his cell phone and took a look.
Originally, he just wanted to check the time out of habit after thinking of the keyword "schedule".
However, after turning on the screen, Jiang Xia was slightly stunned.
——There is no cell phone signal.
At this time, although the vehicle has left the city center, it is still far from the suburbs. Just now, there was someone on the street holding a mobile phone and making a call... There was no signal, it couldn't be because the location here was too remote.
...Is there a signal jammer in the car?
This doesn't sound like the police's way of doing things. Instead, it sounds like human traffickers...
Jiang Xia muttered to himself and glanced at Amuro Toru.
I saw the other party driving the car calmly, without any guilty feeling that a human trafficker should have.
Jiang Xia silently withdrew his gaze and reviewed his Uzo vest from the beginning, as well as the progress of the investigation into Amuro Toru, and the situation a few days ago when this boss suddenly came to the office and wanted to do something but was interrupted by the client.
Combined with this sudden "business trip" and the blocked signal, he had some vague guesses in his mind.
