Chapter 863 New Character
Many things that humans can eat and drink are highly toxic to cats and dogs.
Haibara Ai didn't know the specific ingredients of Jiang Xia's fake cigarette, and was worried that if something went wrong with the anonymous cat, the anonymous member who drew the "Z" on the cat's paw would come to kill for the cat.
In Huiyuan Ai's eyes, compared with the organization, Anonymous is obviously not as scary and gloomy. But she has never forgotten that Anonymous is also an extremely mysterious and dangerous organization, and the members of Anonymous do not seem to be shy about taking other people's lives.
Although there is no evidence so far, Haibara Ai always feels that Pisco, who recognized her identity in the Haido City Hotel a while ago, was killed by Anonymous.
——That night, when the anonymous lady who saved her left, she said casually, "Pisco will not survive the night."
Then that day, Pisco really died in the fire. He died in the most intense burning place...rounded up to the nearest digit, he was cremated on the spot.
…
Therefore, although Huiyuan Ai has a lot of sense of belonging and affection for Anonymous, she actually hides a trace of indelible fear in her heart.
...She didn't want to see any member of Anonymous focusing their unfriendly eyes on Jiang Xia because of the hatred for the poisonous cat.
Although Haibara Ai once speculated that there might be a tattoo there because Jiang Xia always wore a wristband, and Jiang Xia was also a member of an anonymous organization.
But in the end, she knew very well in her heart: this was just an unfounded association. The possibility that Jiang Xia was a member of the Anonymous group was not very high - the Anonymous members that Huiyuan Ai had met so far were all very mysterious, and they had no fixed identities in society and had always been walking in the dark. In comparison, Jiang Xia, who had recently become famous, was obviously different from them.
Besides, Jiang Xia is very busy most of the time: commissions, organizational tasks, part-time jobs pushed over by the unscrupulous boss of the firm, and cases caused by the nature of the incident... If he also serves as an "anonymous member"...
Huiyuan Ai shook her head secretly. Jiang Xia would be too tired and would definitely not be able to manage her time.
…
Jiang Xia heard Huihara Ai's reminder and glanced at the cat curled up on the chair.
The eating cat was stunned for a moment, and suddenly had a bad premonition. It startled, rolled over, and tried to run away with its ears pressed down.
But it was too late.
Jiang Xia quickly stretched out his hand, picked the ghost mint from the cat's mouth before it slipped away, and held it in his own hand.
Then he smiled sadly at Huibara: "I really shouldn't have given it the cigarette. It was just that it was acting coquettishly just now, so I squatted down and touched it. When I came to my senses, the cigarette had been snatched away..." As he said this, he sighed, shook his head, and looked helpless.
The cat hugged Jiang Xia's legs: "QAQ!!"
…Although the ghost mint was held in the hands of the psychic master, it could still be inhaled. But the feeling of the two was different after all, and it was obvious that it was inhaled more when it was held in its mouth.
...damn little girl!
The hungry cat didn't dare to climb onto Jiang Xia to snatch the ghost mint. It could only angrily meow and stomp on Huiyuan Ai several times, and finally curled up sadly.
Then, Haibara Ai picked him up and touched his head.
…
After feeding the cat and having breakfast, Jiang Xia didn't stay at home for long.
He went to the office to sort out the mailboxes, sent a few cats to the wives, and then went to the Rice Flower Municipal Building to finish what he had planned to do last night but forgot to do - to explore the terrain of Thomas Sindorah's game launch site.
It was evening.
Jiang Xia looked at the time and went home to get the small gift he had prepared.
Then we came to the place where I had agreed to meet Vodka last night - Beihu Baitian Club.
The store manager here is a friend of Yoko Kinoshita.
Most of the people who come here are the presidents of various companies. There are not many artists here, so it is not very popular with reporters. The confidentiality is pretty good.
The meeting place Jiang Xia agreed to meet was at the back door of the club.
He arrived at the agreed place on time and waited for a while on the deserted street.
Not long after, a black car drove up silently and stopped on the side of the road.
Jiang Xia looked into the car through the front window and found that it was Gin who was driving.
...As expected, he came too.
Jiang Xia showed a relieved look.
The ghosts pounced on him as if they were familiar with the situation and began to steal the new murderous aura that Gin had revealed in the past few days.
Amid the lively harvest scene, the passenger door clicked open.
Vodka adjusted his collar and got out of the car with a calm look on his face.
He was still wearing a black suit today. But he changed his usual burgundy shirt to a white one that was more in line with the average office worker. He also stopped wearing a black tie and changed it to a sapphire blue stripe. He took off his hat and combed his hair back to look like a modern man. But he still wore his sunglasses stubbornly, but changed them to a more casual style.
...Only some details were changed, but the overall feeling given by people suddenly changed from "a thug of evil forces" to "a sturdier office worker".
Jiang Xia looked him up and down.
At first, Vodka raised his chin and tried hard to ignore Jiang Xia's gaze.
But after a few seconds, he couldn't bear it anymore. His face was stern, his movements became a little stiff, and he looked a little gloomy.
Jiang Xia smiled and stepped forward to pat the vodka: "Don't look like that, be more natural - you are now 'a passionate assistant who admires Jiang Xia so much that he came to me with his skills and wanted to experience the life of a detective'."
Vodka: “……?”
...Is this the character that Uzo set for him?
Oh, it’s too long, I can’t remember it.
And it's so incongruous - who would want to worship Uzo? And what about "worship", "enthusiasm", "assistant"... Each of them sounds like a foreshadowing for future "cannon fodder"!
Vodka remained extremely alert.
He just nodded calmly: "I know."
Vodka thought: We are all cadres, and I have more experience. Moreover, Wuzo's most terrifying behind-the-scenes attributes have been exposed in front of them. As long as they are vigilant enough and guard their hearts, this guy is nothing to be afraid of.
Vodka silently recited the key points he had summarized all night, quickly calmed down, and raised his hand to push up the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose.
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "That's good."
He handed a medium-sized box to Vodka: "This is your detective assistant toolbox. Take some time to familiarize yourself with the contents later."
After Vodka took the box.
Jiang Xia took out another roll of posters and handed it over: "This is a very commemorative poster. I'm not a fan of celebrities, so it's useless to keep it. I'll give it to you as a thank you gift for your help."
"...I don't often chase stars, but I have some understanding of this aspect." Vodka responded lightly, his eyes fell on the tube of posters wrapped in transparent material.
