Chapter 503: Gudiaoqin Bar
Jiang Xia thought that the boss might not be unable to find any physical evidence related to "Wu Zuo", so he turned to Ke Xue's arms - for example, in an unfamiliar place and without giving him time to plan the case, to see if any case would happen.
Whether it was showing up suddenly or blocking the cell phone signal, it was probably to prevent him from spreading the news and looking for help.
Jiang Xia was silent for a moment. If this was true, then the person who came up with this plan was truly a talent...
Unfortunately, it is very difficult to block information from the psychic, and he can always find loyal helpers - his puppets.
In addition, Jiang Xia felt that with his luck, even if he didn't encounter a case, he might meet acquaintances like Conan - he heard that Kogoro Mouri was going to attend the funeral of a classmate soon, so there was a great hope of meeting him by chance outside.
Of course, we can't just rely on luck.
So Jiang Xia has other ways to deal with this kind of investigation.
——Not only Tokyo and Osaka, but other prefectures also have their own well-known high school detectives. Although their fame varies, the nature of their cases is similar.
At that time, if you really can't encounter any cases on your own, you can use the puppet to knock out a nearby person, secretly carry him to your location, and use him to attract cases...
If all else fails, you can also send puppets onto the stage to perform a "death" such as falling off a cliff, jumping into the sea, or exploding, making it difficult to find the body - the parent ghosts rarely appear and are not convenient to move, but they are just the right setting for a pair of deaths.
After coming up with some emergency measures, Jiang Xia relaxed and prepared to enjoy this spontaneous ghost hunting trip.
I hope the harvest this time is worthy of his consideration just now...
…
Under the control of Toru Amuro, the white Mazda was driving on the road leading to the suburbs.
The vehicle stopped briefly when passing the red light intersection.
Jiang Xia leaned against the passenger seat, looking out the window at the phone, his expression as if he was in a daze.
Not long after, the red light turned green and the car continued to drive away.
Ten seconds later, after the Mazda drove away, a man in a black casual suit and with naturally curly hair walked out from the shadows in the alley near the intersection.
He pushed the light-colored sunglasses on his nose, glanced in the direction the Mazda left, and walked away quickly.
——This time, the puppet will be responsible for communicating with Gin via typing.
So it was Jiang Xia himself who possessed and controlled it.
After all, if you calculate the time, since Toru Amuro is about to leave the city, he probably won't be able to return to Tokyo during the time period agreed with Gin.
If the puppet were allowed to go alone to negotiate with Gin, not only would he not be able to report the fact that "Situ" was used as a substitute for "Uzo", but the innocent Situ - that is, the puppet of Jinpei Matsuda - might also be shot and socially killed in front of everyone in the brewery.
With the speed of Amuro Toru's car, when the time for the transaction with Gin came, they both had no idea where they were. It was too far from Tokyo, and leaving the puppet behind would consume a huge amount of murderous aura... It was more cost-effective to give up.
…
Not long after.
The other side of Tokyo.
Gin was taking some time to catch up on his sleep when he suddenly felt his phone vibrate.
He frowned and opened his eyes, then opened it and saw that it was an email from Uzo:
[I have something urgent tonight.
Bourbon suspected that I was an "ouzo." When I refused to admit it, he decided to do some verification in his own way.
I don’t know how long it will last yet, so let’s postpone the meeting.]
“…”
Gin frowned.
He actually didn't reserve much time for tonight's meeting - there were only two possible outcomes: "Take the money, leave the assassination list and leave", or "Kill the rebellious Uzo and leave", either of which would only take a few minutes. Canceling the reservation wouldn't delay things too much.
But as an efficient person who pays attention to time management, Gin doesn't like the situation where the scheduled schedule changes suddenly.
In addition, the words sent by Uzo seem to contain a lot of information...
So much time has passed, and Bourbon still hasn't realized that "Uzo" is active under his nose... Even so, Bourbon has the nerve to mock others for being uninformed and unable to judge people?
Gin snorted coldly and even wanted to review how Bourbon got the code name.
However, despite his contempt, Gin did not actually send the message to the Human Resources Department.
——Thinking rationally, as far as he knew, Bourbon was not in the office all year round. In addition, Uzo himself was also very good at hiding and disguising. If he had not seen Uzo complete the task with his own eyes, Gin suspected that he might have been kept in the dark.
...From this aspect alone, Bourbon was able to connect the famous detective Jiang Xia with "Uzo", which was considered sharp. There was nothing wrong with this.
The problem is that Jiang Xia doesn't seem to want Bourbon to know his identity as "Uzo".
…Will this bring risks to Uzo?
He thinks there's something wrong with Bourbon?
Gin's eyes turned cold and he slowly stroked the handle of the gun.
However, in the email sent by Uzo, there was a sentence "I didn't admit it"... This means that Bourbon asked him directly, so the verb "didn't admit it" came into being later - and if Bourbon was a rat sent into the organization by other agencies, even if he had doubts about Jiang Xia's identity, he would only investigate secretly and would not directly ask a code-named cadre.
Gin thought for a moment and tentatively replied:
[Don't waste time. Just tell him the code name.
—Or do you think there is something wrong with him?]
…
Ten kilometers away.
Jiang Xia, who was driving the Matsuda Jinpei puppet, glanced at his phone and muttered to himself: Just tell him directly... Then my prison break can be officially put on the agenda...
Jiang Xia will actively cooperate with Amuro Toru's "experiment". In addition to wanting to pick up ghosts, he also has other plans.
——Amuro Toru probably took this action just to do a final bit of verification.
If you cooperate with the investigation at this time, you will be able to get a good guy card from the police in the future, and continue to mix with the red team identity, which is really a big deal.
If he were to stubbornly refuse, this happy ending would of course not exist, and it might even make Amuro Toru suspicious.
Now that he had decided to leave, according to the organization's sometimes-worse intelligence network, the fact that he and Bourbon were going out together might suddenly reach the organization's ears one day.
At that time, if Gin comes back to ask, or if the boss's identity is exposed and he plans to withdraw one day, he will be exposed as well... It is better to prepare a case in advance and avoid investigation in the future.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia pushed up the light-colored sunglasses on his nose, pressed the buttons on his phone, and typed a reply:
[Question
……]
…
When Gin saw the words "there is a problem", he sat up straight without making a sound, his eyes slightly drooping, and entered the working mode of strangling the mouse.
However, after quickly reading the entire reply letter, he fell silent again.
