Chapter 521: Failed to Seduce → Died
At this time, Xiaobai was poking the waitress's face and fiddling with her hair.
After observing carefully for a moment, it suddenly turned around and muttered something to its parents.
The parent ghosts understood it without any difficulty, and then moved to Jiang Xia's side at a speed that was very fast for them, and hugged his legs happily.
Jiang Xia: “…”
He suddenly remembered that in order to prevent Vermouth from plotting against him, the "dark member lurking around Angel and Cool Guy", he once let his parents' ghosts float over and hug his legs when they saw Vermouth or someone in disguise - contact with his parents' ghosts seemed to activate some strange aura in him.
Although now, when interacting with Vermouth, they no longer need the amplification of their parents' ghosts, they still like to find an excuse to cuddle up to her and hug her - before this pair of ghosts were signed, they had clung to their daughter's legs for a long time, and seemed to enjoy the feeling of fulfillment of having legs to hug.
At this time, the waitress next to her was in disguise.
Judging from Xiaobai's feedback, her disguise skills were not as advanced as Vermouth's. She simply used materials to blur her original facial features. In addition, she also wore a pair of colored contact lenses and a black wig.
“…”
These characteristics, combined with Rum who was hiding in the kitchen and peeking over here, made Jiang Xia vaguely think of someone.
——Curacao.
Curacao is Rum's confidant, a tall beauty with long straight silver hair and heterochromatic eyes.
As Rum's right-hand man, in addition to superb skills such as shooting, racing, and fighting, she also has an excellent memory and can accurately remember a large amount of information with the help of five-color cards. In my impression, this is the woman who will sneak into the public security in the future, record a large number of undercover agents from the public security database, and almost cause Bourbon to overturn.
Thinking of this person, Jiang Xia fell into deep thought for a short while.
For a programmer, Rum and Curacao were dispatched at the same time? Did this programmer master some incredible high-tech technology... or did Rum and Curacao have other purposes?
However, think about the weird hobbies of each organization member, such as Rum's job as a chef.
Think about another programmer who was once threatened by Vermouth himself...
Jiang Xia also felt that this was actually quite reasonable.
Here, talented programmers seem to be treated in this way.
Compared to those who were persecuted by the organization, the doctor who had remained strangely unknown seemed very clever...
"Brother Jiang Xia?"
Inspector Megure interrupted his chaotic thoughts.
The fat police captain came closer and asked in confusion, "I heard you say 'homicide' just now. What exactly happened?" Although Jiang Xia's voice was very low just now, he would never have heard it wrong.
Jiang Xia came back to his senses.
Curacao also withdrew his gaze from Jiang Xia, and like a normal waiter, he showed an expression of confusion and wait for the answer to the question, along with the onlookers.
"There are traces of dragging on the ground. In addition, the strangulation marks on the deceased's neck are rather strange." Jiang Xia looked in the direction where the deceased had left. "The 'hanging rope' hanging on the door handle of the warehouse is a loop of cloth, but underneath the rough strangulation marks, there are faint traces of several thinner marks. So the deceased may have been strangled to death with something else first, and then disguised as suicide."
"…Other things?"
"Yeah." Jiang Xia nodded and gave an example, "For example, the width of Ms. Narita's bag strap is very suitable for the size of those scars."
“?!”
The group of people were stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned their heads to look at Narita Mayu, and then their eyes fell on the bag on her shoulder.
When Toru Amuro heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and his movements became a little more relaxed than before.
...Solving a case should indeed be done more efficiently, just like Jiang Xia usually does.
Come to think of it, these colleagues are too stupid. They actually have to rely on a high school student for help... Unqualified, all of them are unqualified.
Inspector Megure felt an inexplicable chill on his back.
He shuddered and wrapped his coat around himself slowly.
Then, following what Jiang Xia had just said, he looked at Narita Mayu, especially at her bag and the stripes on it.
"..." Narita Mayu clutched the strap of her bag and was silent for a moment, unable to think of any suitable way to fool him.
So he snorted coldly and admitted neatly: "Oh, yes, I killed him."
…
Narita Mayu had long felt that there was something wrong with Yue Yuanrong Road.
During the break just now, she went to ask for details alone.
After learning that President Wu Ye was indeed poisoned to death by Yue Yuanronglu, she wanted this colleague to surrender.
The letter that looked like a "suicide note" was actually a letter of surrender that Yue Yuanronglu wrote unwillingly after being exposed by her.
The confession letter must, of course, include the motive for the murder.
When Yue Yuanronglu wrote "Mr. Wu Ye took all our joint achievements for himself", he felt angry again. He was unwilling to surrender himself and wanted to pull the woman next to him who had seen through the truth to his side.
He turned to Narita Mayu and said seductively, "Actually, you also want him to die, right?"
"?" Narita Mayu was stunned, his eyes narrowed in confusion, "What do you mean by that?"
Yue Yuanronglu looked at her shocked and confused expression and felt that there was something going on. He became more and more excited as he spoke: "Don't pretend - a selfish guy like Wu Ye will only have enemies around him. Even if I don't do it, someone will do it sooner or later. In the final analysis, you and I are both poor people who were used by him. He is just a hopeless scum. Now that he is dead, aren't you all secretly happy in your hearts?"
However, Yue Yuanronglu's words did not attract loyal teammates to protect him as he had imagined.
On the contrary, Narita Mayu opened her eyes grimly, and in the woman's eyes, which lacked brilliance, there burned the tremendous anger of a bootlicker when she heard her male god being insulted.
…
"...The president is the person I admire the most. He does have his shortcomings, but he really cherishes the bond between him and everyone. Yue Yuan actually dared to say that about him, I can't tolerate it!" Narita Mayu recalled the scene a few minutes ago, slapped the table in front of Jiang Xia, and looked at him with gritted teeth, "You can understand, right!"
Jiang Xia silently took a step back. No, he couldn't...
The other police officers were startled by the knocking sound and came back to their senses from this bizarre reason for the murder. They ran over quickly and dragged the woman who was out of control away.
Jiang Xia looked at the scratch marks on the door frame made by Narita Mayu: "..."
…
This restaurant is some distance from the Metropolitan Police Department.
In addition, Toru Amuro was determined not to turn around and return to the city, so in the end, the two of them used facial recognition to make a simple record in the restaurant, then got in the car and left, heading towards a place outside Tokyo overnight.
After they and the police left one after another.
Rum glanced toward Curacao.
The latter nodded slightly, not noticeably, and walked around the surveillance camera towards the parking lot.
