Chapter 693 Investigation Conclusion (Update)
However, no matter what, Conan felt relieved when Toru Amuro left.
His thoughts were subtly synchronized with Toru Amuro's a few hours ago - although he could get information with dangerous people present, Conan still preferred to face danger alone. And now, Xiaolan, Jiang Xia, and Uncle Maori were all there, especially if Toru Amuro had any illegal goals, he would definitely involve Jiang Xia first. So now that Toru Amuro took the initiative to leave, the situation was actually better.
but……
Conan looked at Jiang Xia suspiciously. The more he looked, the more he felt that after learning that Amuro Toru had left, his neighbor was in a very ordinary mood, and even seemed a little lost... Could it be that Jiang Xia also discovered the suspicious points about Amuro Toru and was taking the risk alone and investigating secretly?
And now, when the truth is about to be revealed, the cunning boss Amuro suddenly escapes because of the better plan?
Or, Jiang Xia knew what Amuro Toru was doing behind the scenes, and Amuro Toru's departure this time meant that everything was ready and he was going to go somewhere to commit a crime?
In Conan's mind, countless conspiracies were lined up.
Just as I was thinking that this matter was of great importance, maybe I should bite the bullet and go find Jiang Xia to ask for details.
However, when he looked up, he saw Jiang Xia coming back to his senses from his thoughts, looking at him, and then looking at Maori Ran and Maori Kogoro who were walking from a distance.
Afterwards, he didn't know what he was thinking about, but the gloomy and disappointed aura on his body slowly dissipated.
Conan: “…”
...Is it possible that I was overthinking it? Jiang Xia was simply disappointed because his teammates had left him and he had to go back to Tokyo alone. And now, Jiang Xia suddenly remembered that there were other companions, so he quickly healed himself?
Thinking of this possibility, Conan's eyes jumped: No way, that suspicious boss's position in Jiang Xia's heart is not the same as theirs, who have grown up together as neighbors... This doesn't make sense! Amuro Toru must have played some tricks to win people's hearts, such as the generous transportation fees and subsidies he gave to Jiang Xia before...
Criminals who are straightforward are not scary, and all kinds of killing techniques can be cracked one by one, but these methods of playing with people's hearts are the most difficult to deal with...
Conan rubbed his forehead, feeling slightly worried.
…
Tokyo.
At this time, Toru Amuro had returned overnight to this familiar homeland which was not too far away and he had not been away for long, but it seemed as if he had not seen it for a long time and therefore he missed it particularly.
Before that, he had tracked Vermouth for some time, trying to figure out her relationship with the mysterious man, and why Vermouth suddenly appeared around him.
However, it failed - after Vermouth received the call, she went straight back to Tokyo and had no contact with the mysterious man who looked like Matsuda along the way.
Toru Amuro was a little disappointed that he didn't get any valuable results.
But it is definitely too late to go back to Gunma now.
However, he soon realized that even if he knew the result in advance, he probably still would not stay in the hotel - this time, on the way back from Gunma, the lane was extremely smooth, and even when running on the rugged mountain road, he never had a flat tire. He didn't think much of it before, but now with the comparison, Amuro Toru found that driving safely was really a pleasure.
And if I stayed in Gunma and came back with Jiang Xia...
Although Toru Amuro did not believe in metaphysics, based on his experience this week and the cases he had encountered in succession when he met Jiang Xia before... he doubted whether they could get out of Gunma if they were given two days.
...Fortunately, everything is over.
…
After a busy week, my days are now somewhat relaxed.
While Toru Amuro was organizing the information he had collected this time, he was also preparing to deal with the two mission reports.
In addition, he also went to a 4S store he often visited and asked the store owner to thoroughly check his new car, focusing on whether there were any strange things hidden in the gaps, such as creatures with sharp teeth and claws or robots... Only then could he drive with confidence.
After leaving the auto repair shop, Toru Amuro glanced around as usual.
After making sure that no one was following or observing him, he pressed down the brim of his baseball cap, walked through the alley in twists and turns, came out from the other end, and got into a car.
Yuya Kazami's car.
Although Yuya Kazami is not as good at driving as Toru Amuro, he occasionally works as a driver, and his function is a bit like Vodka to Gin.
…
After walking a distance, Kazami Yuya asked quietly: "Has this observation mission been confirmed to be over?"
Amuro Toru nodded and said, "Withdraw all the people who are watching Jiang Xia. We are still short of manpower for other tasks. You can arrange the specific work when the time comes."
They have not reviewed the intelligence they obtained this time in detail, but they have already had a relatively clear answer to the question of "whether Jiang Xia has a tendency to cause events."
Although from the beginning to the end, this investigation was gradually messed up by the endless cases and Jiangxia's acquaintances.
But at least the preceding observations are quite valid.
——At that time, all external communications of Jiangxia were cut off. The route and departure time were random, and even Toru Amuro didn't know where they would go next. The only thing that controlled their direction was the inorganic crystal dice that had no brain and could not think.
In this situation, they still encounter cases one after another. If this is really planned by someone... If the control and calculation of human hearts are so terrifying, then I am afraid they are no longer human.
Toru Amuro felt that Jiang Xia had been around him for such a long time, and even though the two of them were usually busy and didn't have much contact, if Jiang Xia was the god-like and dangerous "Uzo", then he, an undercover agent, would have been suddenly arrested and handcuffed by the organization long ago.
And now, he is still lying in the organization. It can be seen that Jiang Xia should not be equal to "Wu Zuo", unless Wu Zuo is also an undercover agent... But undercover agents will not help each other. Undercover agents are often in different camps and have a competitive relationship. Not actively pitting the other party is already considered conscientious. Even if they are both public security officers, the other party will not be so friendly to him if their identities are not interchangeable.
In short, considering all the circumstances, Toru Amuro is more inclined to believe that Jiang Xia is not Uzo, let alone an undercover agent of any organization.
Looking back, the reason why he suspected that Jiang Xia and Uzo were related was mainly because of the frequent cases around Jiang Xia, and the overlapping movements of him, Gin, and that "Uzo" during Jiang Xia's trip to Tottori Prefecture.
But now it seems that the frequent cases, the attraction of strange acquaintances and organization members...all these doubts have been answered in this observation.
