Moreover, the previous encounter provided Okiya Subaru with an opportunity to observe Jiang Xia up close.
This also confirms the same.
——Jiang Xia wasn't really reading the script. He obviously had a period of observation and reasoning, and the lack of intelligence would delay the progress of solving the case. So...
It turns out that I was overthinking it.
…
Okiya Subaru felt relieved.
On the other side, someone's heart was lifted.
"What did you say?!" In the Central Hospital, Miantan Yoshiichi slapped the table and glared at the front desk, "Didn't you call me to get checked?!"
The receptionist nodded carefully, "Sorry, we have never made such a call." After looking at Watanuki Yoshikazu's age, he could not help but whispered, "It seems that telephone fraud is popular recently. Although I have not seen anyone using this kind of rhetoric, you must be careful."
Watanuki Yoshikazu: “…”
His face twisted for a moment, and then he suddenly thought of something. He turned around and went out, taking a taxi home.
…
However, when Yoshikazu Watanuki arrived at the door.
What was supposed to happen has already happened.
——There was a large group of police cars surrounding his house.
The police seemed to have just arrived and were hurriedly opening the door and getting out of the car.
And in the yard, there was a person standing at this time.
——Masao Koda threw away the thin stick he used to dig the soil and smiled at the police who arrived: "I want to surrender myself."
Behind him, there were now countless small holes on the neatly-knit lawn of the Miantuan family.
"I buried the stolen gems scattered throughout this yard. To be honest, there were quite a few of them, and I can't remember which one I buried where. If you want to find them..." Koda Masao waved his hand back as if showing off his work, looking relieved, "I'm afraid you'll have to turn the whole field upside down."
Sato Miwako sighed. Not long after she arranged the search, she vaguely guessed Koda Masao's purpose. After that, her personal thoughts and her responsibility as a police officer briefly conflicted. When she rushed over to take a look, she found that this was indeed the case.
The criminal suspect who surrendered himself revealed the location where the stolen goods were buried.
Now, even if Yoshikazu Watanuki objects, the police will have to search his yard.
Watanuki Yoshiichi stood in front of the group of people with a cold face. Koda Masao looked at him and sneered: "What's wrong? Do you have corpses buried in your yard that the police can't see?"
Manager Kojima looked at Jiang Xia, then at Koda Masao, and finally at the police, adding fuel to the fire: "You must get my gem back!"
"..." Yoshiichi Watanuki glared at Masao Koda for a while, then suddenly sneered.
He pushed a few steps away: "Dig if you want."
…
It so happened that no murders had occurred today, so there was plenty of manpower.
Sato quickly dispatched a number of police officers and began to carefully dig up Yoshikazu Watanuki's yard, making sure that no corner was left untouched.
——Since we are looking for it, let’s do it thoroughly. As long as Koda Sanae is not found, this matter will not be resolved.
When half of the yard was turned upside down.
Jiang Xia caught a glimpse of lighter hair color out of the corner of his eye.
He turned his head and found that Subaru Okiya had appeared nearby at some point.
After their eyes met, the new subordinate paused slightly.
Soon, Okiya Subaru walked over with a guilty look on his face and whispered: "I'm sorry, I wanted to stop him, but on the way, Mr. Koda left by himself..." Okiya Subaru still remembered that when he separated from Jiang Xia just now, the excuse he made was "I was worried about Koda Masao, so I went to see him."
Jiang Xia nodded and considerately helped his subordinates to leave: "He has a motorcycle and is very determined. If he insists on leaving, you can't stop him."
Okiya Subaru: “…” This is exactly the excuse I was looking for.
He was still thinking that if he said this in person, it would seem a bit deliberate, so he was very hesitant.
I didn't expect Jiang Xia to have considered these details and to have spoken them out on his own initiative... What a good person. Okiya Subaru once again felt the huge difference between Jiang Xia and Usa, and felt relieved.
…
After resolving this minor flaw, Okiya Subaru focused his attention back on the main business.
Seeing the police digging up the yard of Miantsu Miantsu's family, he sighed inwardly.
Robbing a jewelry store and attracting the police to search is indeed a good conspiracy, but...
It's the wrong place.
Subaru Okiya looked at his watch, then thought of the mission deadline and Usa's kind smile, and couldn't help but push his glasses to hide his anxiety.
But no matter how urgent it is, there are police officers all around, and there is also a sharp detective. The more times like this, the more patience you need... Fortunately, they have already investigated to this point, and they are not far from the truth.
Subaru Okiya looked at the group of busy people in front of him, thinking about how to help them find the correct search direction as soon as possible. For a moment, he actually felt that he was experiencing the kind of God's perspective that was higher than that of Uzo.
The only difference is that Uzo looks relaxed and confident of winning, but he has to bear the pain of conscience and worry about the time limit given by Uzo...
Okiya Subaru sighed inwardly and secretly observed the people present, preparing to find the right opportunity to speed up the progress of the case.
…
By dusk, the lawn of the villa had been turned over from inside to outside, and all the gems that Chihiro Kojima had lost had been found, but nothing related to the "female corpse" had been found. Not even a piece of clothing was found.
There is still a small half of lawn left.
Watanuki Yoshikazu looked at the policeman with a hint of provocation: "Since you guys helped me to dig up the land, I will turn this half into a family vegetable garden - do you want to continue with the remaining half?"
Sato Miwako looked at Watanuki Yoshiichi who was calm and composed, and then looked at Koda Masao who was obviously a criminal suspect but mixed in the police team and dug the soil harder than anyone else. She turned to her subordinates who were covered in dust and said helplessly: "Go on."
...Now that things have come to this, the excavation has already begun, and we have to finish it all and see.
At the gate of the courtyard, Jiang Xia, who was watching the police digging the ground, also sighed.
This time, the clue check-in point is quite far away.
However, it has been delayed until now. If he continues to solve the case step by step, he will not be like the agile detective he usually is. He touched his chin, thought for a while, and turned to walk out of the yard.
Conan and Haibara Ai noticed Jiang Xia's movements and quickly followed him out.
Okiya Subaru hesitated for a moment, then blended into their group seemingly naturally.
As Jiang Xia walked, he whispered, "Mr. Watanuki seems very confident. I feel that even if we dig up the rest of the ground, it will be difficult to find the body."
Subaru Okiya was like an innocent bystander, showing his wavering emotions as if he was bewildered by the murderer: "Did Miss Koda really come here?"
"Hmm?" Jiang Xia glanced at him and felt that he had picked up a dramatic subordinate.
He suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "Oh, by the way, I just heard you say that you were busy with your thesis... Come with us, is the thesis okay?"
