Chapter 95 Don't turn me against me
Jiang Xia subconsciously held the phone tightly, not wanting to give it to him.
But then he thought, no matter how murderous Gin's voice was, he couldn't pull it down over the radio waves.
"……"well……
Jiang Xia silently handed the phone to Amuro Toru.
Amuro Toru picked up the phone: "Jiang Xia is helping me now. If you need anyone, go and recruit them. Don't always disturb other people's subordinates. By the way, how long do you plan to continue your simple collective responsibility thinking?"
Gin sneered: "Simple methods are more effective. Starting from interpersonal relationships is also the most basic method of investigation. Also, I'm asking Jiang Xia, why did you get involved? Are you afraid that he will let the cat out of the bag? Ha, I was just asking him out of routine, but now, I doubt your position."
"I can be sure of this because Jiang Xia has been in my office during the time you lost Shirley." Amuro Toru paused, and suddenly sneered like Gin, retreating to advance:
"Since you insist, let's make a bet. You can arrest the man and interrogate him, but if he has nothing to do with this matter, you can give me your newly acquired potion. It's a waste for a guy like you who is keen on shooting his prey to have such a precious assassination poison in his hands."
Gin was silent for a moment and did not agree.
He snorted disdainfully and hung up the phone.
…
In Gin's eyes, after the incident of silencing Miyano Akemi, Jiang Xia's suspicion this time when Shirley defected was actually not as high as last time.
He asked Jiang Xia because it was not easy to escape from the organization. Shirley was able to succeed, most likely because she had help.
As for who the helper is...
Shirley's parents and sister were all dead, and she was usually cold and didn't like to talk to people, and rarely made friends. Counting down the interpersonal relationships, it soon came to Jiang Xia.
That's why Gin made this call.
…
After hanging up the phone, Gin remembered something and searched Jiang Xia's name.
Two more incidents appeared in the related news.
One was a murder case of a potter in Izu, and the other was an old case in an ancient castle.
Gin looked at the time and place, and his suspicion of Jiang Xia was reduced a lot.
——During this period, due to the death of Miyano Akemi, the relationship between Shirley and the organization became visibly tense.
If Jiang Xia was really her helper, at this critical juncture, he would not leisurely run to other places and wander around to solve the case.
The same goes for bourbon.
...In other words, these two people can be temporarily removed from the list of suspects.
Gin looked at his notebook.
Bourbon - this was added temporarily when I was making the phone call just now, cross it out.
Jiangxia, cross it out too.
After that, Gin looked at the next suspicious person, then picked up the phone again, with murderous intent, and continued to ask questions.
…
In the detective agency.
Jiang Xia took the phone handed back by Amuro Toru and became a little alert.
——During the daytime today, Amuro Tomoyuki was not in the office, so his whereabouts should not be known.
But just now, Toru Amuro actually dared to tell Gin directly that "Jiang Xia is in the office."
“……” I always feel that the boss is too friendly - even if you want to persuade him to defect, there is no need to extend an olive branch so blatantly.
Jiang Xia thought about this and felt that things were getting complicated. He was a little worried that in the next second, Amuro Toru would suddenly slam the gun on the table and say something like "Turn over the dark side and join the light side right now, or you'll be sent to juvenile detention."
…
Jiang Xia didn't mind helping the Red Team, just like he didn't mind working for the Black Team - as long as there were ghosts and murderous aura to be caught, the diligent psychic would not be picky about the job.
But Jiang Xia did not want to officially join the Red Team, especially the Public Security Bureau.
If I remember correctly, in the future, the police will leak a batch of recorded undercover information, which will kill a large number of diligent counterfeit winemakers... If I join in, it will undoubtedly affect his peaceful life of picking up ghosts.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia looked at Amuro Toru with a slight vigilance.
…
But fortunately, the temporary boss didn't say anything.
Toru Amuro walked to the computer and pulled up today's surveillance video.
——Shirley is the organization’s top scientist, and her sudden defection is definitely not a trivial matter.
And Bourbon, as a well-known intelligence agent of the organization, actually received the task of arresting Shirley today.
However, Toru Amuro did not seriously look for him. The task was sent to a group of people, so it was easier to slack off with more people. Toru Amuro just went to the scene and pretended to track him, but actually left early.
However, because of this, Toru Amuro knew the time period when Shirley disappeared.
The detective agency was equipped with surveillance cameras. If we compare the time Jiang Xia spent in the agency with the time Shirley disappeared, we could prove something.
…
Toru Amuro tuned the surveillance video to a specific time and fast-forwarded it.
He didn't capture the part where Jiang Xia was filmed, so he pressed pause and estimated the time Jiang Xia was not there.
It turns out that Jiang Xia did stay in the office during the time when Shirley disappeared. The only time he disappeared from the screen was when Jiang Xia tried to steal a client's cat, but the cat escaped and Jiang Xia chased after it.
But it only took more than ten minutes for Jiang Xia to come back carrying the cat.
This period of time was far from enough for him to help Shirley defect.
…
Jiang Xia secretly observed Amuro Toru's actions and always felt that his boss's hoe of poaching was hanging over his head at any time.
But saying nothing now would make it even more suspicious.
Jiang Xia hesitated for a moment, then asked in confusion: "Check the surveillance now...didn't you check it before you came here? What if I did leave the office?"
Amuro Toru looked at him strangely and replied as a matter of course: "Then I will hand you and the surveillance camera over to the organization, and I will make a profit by missing Gin in the middle - I also need merit."
…This is actually an excuse.
Toru Amuro had almost thought of what Gin thought of.
And he remembered that it was Jiang Xia who insisted on going on the business trip with him. Jiang Xia really did not do anything about Shirley's matter.
So Toru Amuro just protected Jiang Xia, gave him face, and also got some personal stuff in by the way.
Amuro Toru said in the tone of a senior: "There is also some competition within the organization. You haven't been exposed to it yet. You should pay more attention in the future." He wants Jiang Xia to realize that superiors are different from superiors. Compared with Gin, he should be more inclined to his side in the future.
Jiang Xia: “…”Oh.
