Chapter 977: The Building Close to Heaven Asking for a monthly ticketヽ(〃〃)~
It seemed like a peaceful night, and it passed without incident.
The next day, Jiang Xia finished taking the statement and went to the detective agency carrying the cat he had just found.
After flipping through the newspaper and waiting for a while, the customer finally arrived.
Jiang Xia was about to pour tea when he suddenly saw a tall coral-headed man walking in with a client. The man stood by the door and looked inside carefully.
Jiang Xia: “……?”
Coral Head was looking around the store when he suddenly met Jiang Xia's eyes.
His eyes lit up and he came up to me warmly: "Hello! Do you remember me? We met before in that case at the Izu Pottery House - you even signed an autograph for me!"
Jiang Xia certainly remembered: "Officer Yokomizo... why did you come here from Shizuoka? Were you transferred?"
Yokoguro Sango said happily, "No, no, actually it's like this - we have a difficult case, and we have been investigating it for a few days but still have no clue. That incident has a big impact, and the police station just happened to have some extra publicity funds recently, so we wanted to ask you to go over and take a look..."
Yokomizo Sango is a rare star chaser among police inspectors.
He has been chasing after several legendary detectives, but the only one he has met in person and asked for their autograph is Jiang Xia.
So Yokomizo Sango would often hold up the signature and brag about it at work. Perhaps they were unintentionally brainwashed by him, and when they encountered a case this time, everyone in the police station agreed to his proposal to "seek external help."
On the one hand, the case is indeed urgent.
On the other hand, I also want to see what the legendary detective "Jiang Xia" is like in his daily life.
…
Jiang Xia didn't expect that instead of receiving an invitation letter from afar, he received a police officer who came to his door from afar.
“……”It was really an unexpected success.
He nodded immediately and said considerately, "No problem. Helping the police is the duty of citizens."
Then Jiang Xia turned to the client's wife next to him and handed the cat to the driver behind her: "Your cat - sorry, I have something urgent to do. If it's not too urgent, how about coming back next time?"
client:"……"
She glanced at the soft sofa in the store, and then at Henggou Chanwu.
Inspector Yokomizo felt a sudden shock, as he felt that the other person's eyes were a little resentful.
However, before I could analyze the complex meaning, the other party had already politely bowed slightly, turned around and left, getting into a luxurious car on the street.
Yokomizo Sango watched the car go away, confused: "...I have offended her? No way, I have never dealt with rich women in Tokyo."
Jiang Xia locked the door of the shop expertly and asked him expectantly, "Are you on a business trip? How long will you be gone? What case? Why did they ask you to come all the way here? Is it a difficult serial murder case?"
"No, it shouldn't take too long. I'll be back after solving the case." Yokomizo Sango came back to his senses. Following the questions from the dedicated detective, his thoughts turned to business.
He patted the heavy suitcase in his hand and said, "There's a lot of information here, it's not convenient to read it here, let's talk about it after we get in the car."
…
The two caught the nearest Shinkansen and headed towards Shizuoka.
When seeing Mount Fuji from afar, Jiang Xia always felt that something was not right.
He withdrew his gaze from Mount Fuji through the thick car window and looked out the window on the other side.
Then he was slightly stunned: When did such a tall building appear here?
Yokomizo Sango was flipping through the case files.
He caught a glimpse of Jiang Xia's movements out of the corner of his eye, and followed the young detective's focused gaze. When he raised his eyes, he saw the Nishitama City Twin Towers.
"Haha, are you also interested in this kind of architectural masterpiece?" Yokomizo Sango seemed to like that building very much. "319 meters and 294 meters high - the tallest twin buildings in Japan!"
Jiang Xia nodded: "It's really impressive." Theoretically, the taller the buildings, the more dangerous they are... When will this building explode? Could it be that Gin has already targeted it?
…But wait, the Twin Towers?
Across the street, Yokomizo Sango looked eagerly out the window: "It's a pity that it has just been built and is not open to the public yet. If I come here on a business trip later, I can stop by to take a look."
Jiang Xia: “…” The more I listen, the more familiar it sounds.
…I should finish the case in Shizuoka Prefecture as soon as possible and return to Tokyo early.
He thought for a moment, lowered his head and pressed his phone, switched to the "Anonymous" mailbox, and sent an email.
Then he looked up at Yokomizo Sango, who was clinging to the car window and wanted to go to the Twin Towers to play: "By the way, where is the case you mentioned?"
"Oh! Here it is." Yokomizo Chango came back to his senses and once again marveled at the detective's professionalism and concentration.
Then, like magic, half a person's height of information suddenly came out from the suitcase.
Jiang Xia: “…”
…
A few minutes ago.
Hundreds of meters away.
On a lane running parallel to the Shinkansen.
Dr. Agasa's little beetle, carrying an old man and five children, was happily speeding on the way to the camping base.
Dr. Agasa is a playful person and he likes children very much.
Now, with a few children clinging to him, he suddenly had double the happiness. After experiencing the dangerous holographic game last time, in addition to the "Nishitama City Twin Towers Opening Ceremony Invitation" transferred by Kudo Yusaku, Dr. Agasa actually arranged a trip himself to calm the children and use happiness to experience and wash away the previous fear... Although the children themselves didn't seem to be too scared.
They were in a similar position to Jiang Xia, and they also saw the shiny building, and couldn't help but sigh in a simple way: "It's so tall and beautiful."
Dr. Agasa thought of the invitation in his pocket and cleared his throat proudly: "Nishitama City Twin Towers, currently the tallest twin towers in Japan - I heard that the view from above is like looking down on the world from heaven."
"Wow……"
Several children looked envious.
Ayumi looked at the building eagerly: "I really want to go in and take a look."
Mitsuhiko sighed very realistically: "They won't let us in."
Huihara Ai came back to her senses and comforted Ayumi: "There will be a chance."
As he said that, he raised his hand and patted Dr. Agasa's driver's seat.
Dr. Agasa couldn't help but reveal a mysterious smile: "Don't be picky about food during this camping trip. Eat all the vegetables honestly, and I will make an exception and take you in."
As he spoke, he freed his hands and, like a proud Doraemon, quickly took out the invitation to the opening ceremony.
Conan looked at Dr. Agasa driving with one hand, and remembered that the doctor was distracted while driving and hit an anonymous lady passing by. He decisively snatched the invitation letter from him: "Drive carefully!"
Then he unfolded the invitation letter and took a look at it.
The other kids also crowded over to watch, their eyes lit up as they watched: "Great, unlimited buffet, and a great gift event! - All-you-can-eat eel rice!"
