Chapter 865: Stop adding settings to me
"Yeah." Vodka responded calmly and dodged Jiang Xia's hand without making a sound.
The two of them walked into the club, one in front and one behind.
Vodka: "..." Calm down, the silver needle is just a prank, or it could really be a coincidence. In short, don't panic, you will lose if you panic.
And you have to believe in big brother Gin - since big brother left, it means he thinks Uzo is not a big problem. Big brother's vision and judgment are always correct!
…
Jiang Xia didn’t know how many thoughts flashed through Vodka’s mind in an instant.
Turning his head and seeing that Vodka was indeed quite calm, Jiang Xia nodded secretly with satisfaction.
After all, Vodka's positioning is "famous fan Mr. Yamada", "admirer of the famous detective". If he always jumps when walking next to him like he did when he saw the pine needles just now, it would be too easy to expose his mistake.
Now, this calm but slightly tense reaction can be explained as "the excitement and nervousness when working with the idol", which is just right.
Jiang Xia: "..." I didn't expect Vodka's acting skills to be so good. It seems that besides his murderous aura, he does have many other advantages...
…
After entering the club and reporting your membership number.
Jiang Xia brought vodka and came to the reserved box.
There are still a few minutes left before the appointment with Yoko Kinoshita.
Jiang Xia pointed to the box in Vodka's hand. This was the "detective assistant toolbox" he had prepared for his colleague:
"It contains various commonly used tools and possible identification documents. However, the identification documents were hastily made based on your identity as 'Yamada', so they are a bit crude... Fortunately, it is only a one-time identity, so it is fine to use it temporarily - of course, if you like, you can make a more realistic set and keep it for next time."
Vodka said coldly and briefly: "Okay."
...Humph, next time?
——Burn it when you get home.
It always feels unlucky to keep things that have the smell of Uzo around.
...Of course, the poster given as a meeting gift does not need to be burned - the idols' lovely aura is enough to break through Uzo's gloomy aura.
Vodka secretly counted the things he had gained during this trip, and quickly and coldly decided on their destinations.
…
Vodka quickly looked through the tools and documents in the box and wrote down the details.
Jiang Xia was bored, so he sat on the chair next to him, leaning on the back of the chair to watch Vodka work, while he talked nonsense with him:
"Although it is unlikely to be used, you must remember your identity as 'Yamada Taro' - you are a big fan of many celebrities, a wealthy tech geek, and you don't like to go out normally, but you are very active in chasing stars. A while ago, you became a fan of me, so you begged me to be my assistant and experience the life of a famous detective. You happen to have mastered good hacking skills, as well as many skills that private detectives may use. I was moved by your enthusiasm and love for the detective career, and finally agreed to take you out to handle some commissions and try to make you my assistant."
"...Oh." Vodka just felt that the devilish sound filled his head and he didn't want to remember a single word.
He hesitated for a moment and lowered his voice: "What are you going to do later?"
Vodka was actually a little confused: Uzo had said before that he needed his help in the assassination of Thomas Sindorah.
But the best time to take action - the game launch conference will be held tomorrow.
But Uzo only asked him "Are you free tonight?" and didn't care about his plans for tomorrow at all.
...As far as Vodka knew, Gin had asked Uzo a few more questions last night. However, in the end, apart from a rise in blood pressure, nothing else was gained.
Vodka thought that even Brother Gin couldn't get the answer, so if he asked, it would probably be difficult. But now, seeing that Uzo's plan was about to begin, maybe he would reveal a little bit in advance?
Jiang Xia heard the question and turned to look at him: "When you should know, you will know it naturally. When you shouldn't know, you still won't know it even if I tell you."
Vodka: “…#”
There was a sudden knock on the door. Someone came.
Vodka closed the detective toolbox cautiously, fastened the buckle, put it next to the seat, and sat up again as if nothing had happened.
Jiang Xia glanced at him, waited for him to finish packing, then walked over and opened the door.
Yoko Kinoshita appeared outside the door.
She greeted him happily, walked into the room, and looked Jiang Xia up and down: "I always feel that you have become thinner. No matter how busy you are, you must eat on time."
As she spoke, Kinoshita Yoko handed over an exquisite gift box: "This is the Yatsuhashi cake that Reina brought back from her business trip to Kyoto. It may take some time for dinner tonight. If you are hungry, eat these first."
Xiaobai floated over happily and landed on the snack box, like a translucent human-shaped mochi.
Jiang Xia silently glanced at this unrestrained fellow and responded. He took the snacks and his ghost from Kinoshita Yoko.
Almost at the same time, the waiter knocked on the door and pushed in a dining cart with some other exquisite refreshments on it.
…
After the waiter left.
Yoko Kinoshita took off her hat and mask and sat down at the table.
She looked at Vodka beside her, smiled, and took the initiative to greet him: "Hello, are you the assistant friend Jiang Xia mentioned?"
Vodka nodded, stood up and shook hands with her modestly: "Hello, I'm Taro Yamada." ... Miss Yoko! It was actually the real Miss Yoko!
Vodka looked at the living idol across the table that could talk, laugh, and move, and his heart felt like a ball of brilliant fireworks exploded.
When shaking hands, under the slightly curious gaze of Yoko Kinoshita, Vodka's old face turned red slightly, and he couldn't help but turn his eyes to the side.
Then he happened to meet Uzo's smiling gaze.
“…”
It was like a basin of ice water was poured over me.
Vodka suddenly sobered up.
He did not continue to indulge in the joy of "suddenly shaking hands with a top idol". He extended his hand and walked away as soon as it touched him, like a cold-blooded thug.
"..." You can't show your hobbies too obviously. That would definitely be seen as a weakness by Uzo and exploited.
...I don’t know if this restrained measure has any effect.
Vodka discovered that Uzo's gaze really didn't linger on him for too long.
…
Jiang Xia looked at the closed door, then at the three sets of tableware on the table, and asked Kinoshita Yoko: "Is it inconvenient for the friend you mentioned who encountered a stalker and needs detective help to come over today?"
Although Jiang Xia knew in his heart that the friend would not come, he still had to ask in public.
——In the past, when Yoko Kinoshita had a friend who needed a detective, she would bring her friend along, and then the three of them would discuss the matter in this fairly secure club.
This club has become a small branch of the detective agency, specializing in receiving various celebrities that Yoko Kinoshita knows.
