Chapter 2099 2107 [Your role has been increased]
Xun Longzhi took two steps to the side and opened the door.
Jiang Xia and the others looked towards the courtyard and saw a middle-aged man in a uniform with a family crest using a ladder to prune the trees in the courtyard - it was none other than Senda Saruhiko, the servant of the Xun family who had taken them into the mountains the day before yesterday.
Mrs. Xun was stunned. She ran out and asked, "Xiantian, didn't you go out with Zhengwan this morning?"
Senda Saruhiko explained, "That's true, but not long after I left, Master Zhengwan suddenly said he wanted to go alone, and he resolutely drove me back..."
Tatsumi Ryunosuke laughed: "See, he really escaped."
Conan couldn't stand it any longer. Tatsumaru was already very arrogant, but he didn't expect that Tatsumaru Ryunosuke was even more arrogant. "But it's so strange. If Tatsumaru was the murderer, why did he send that threatening letter? Obviously, as long as he did nothing, the family property and the reputation of the head of the family would all be his. Compared to him, those who could have inherited the property but missed out on these things should be more anxious."
"You...!" This sentence did not mention Xun Longzhi at all, but every word was piercing to the heart.
Xun Longzhi was so angry that he wanted to beat someone up, but there were police officers around. Finally, he raised his hands in anger: "You outsiders are so uneducated--"
He suddenly raised two fingers, put them together and scratched the side of his neck: "I curse you!"
Everyone: “…”
Is this person three years old?
Curacao glanced at Ryunosuke Tatsumi and found that he was also within the range of his curse, and immediately felt that it was not a good omen.
However, how could a staunch materialist member of the organization be shaken by a few words from a dandy young master? And Jiang Xia was in front of her just now, so even if there was a curse, it would fall on Wu Zuo.
Thinking of this, Curacao felt relieved: What does all this have to do with her? If there really are undead, they will definitely go to find Uzo, who has a lot of blood debts. As for her, Shirai Akiko, she is just an innocent lawyer who is responsible for keeping the will of the Xun family.
Next to him, Jiang Xia looked at the murderous aura that once again emerged from Xun Longzhisuke and nodded with satisfaction.
Then he looked at Conan, then at Hashimoto Maya who had said nothing from beginning to end, and silently sent an email to Uzo's email:
[Since you are a detective assistant, you should do what an enthusiastic detective would do.]
If you can't add fuel to the fire, can't support the main character, and can't find clues, what's the use of you?
Learn more from Conan. Regardless of anything else, at least learn how to add fuel to the fire.
…
No matter what, Xun Zhengwan fled for no reason, and the most important thing now is to find the talent.
Shancuncao ordered his men to search the village and the woods.
The guests had nothing to do anyway, so they went to look for someone nearby.
Xun Menghuang also came to help. The only daughter of the Xun family, holding her well-behaved black cat, followed everyone like a ghost.
Halfway through the walk, she suddenly said, "I heard that Big Brother was very rude just now. I want to apologize on his behalf."
She raised her hand and made the same gesture that Ryunosuke had used just now: "This gesture is what our village uses when we put a curse on someone. It means that we hope the cursed person will die immediately."
Mao Lilan shuddered.
Jiang Xia comforted his old classmate who was afraid of ghosts: "Don't be afraid, if the curse is effective, then why do we need murderers?"
Mao Lilan: "Thank you... huh?"
I always feel like there's something wrong with this sentence.
Everyone was in a very bad mood after being cursed for no apparent reason and it was such a vicious curse.
Curacao looked at the quiet atmosphere and felt that there would be troublesome follow-up. She actually had a mission to come to Xun's house this time, so the less trouble the better.
Thinking of this, while Jiang Xia was right next to him, Curacao moved his mind and leaned over to whisper.
"Just now when I passed the police search area, I vaguely saw someone passing through the woods." Curacao observed Wuzo's expression and skillfully used a trick to divert the trouble. "The man has blond hair and is agile - he looks like a detective agency boss who escaped on the way."
Jiang Xia: “…” As expected, the boss followed.
Moreover, he refused to stay in the nice guest room, but had to hide in the cold and damp woods alone, watching from afar, and spent the night outside like a wild man. Now there was a murder case, and the police were searching all around, and the woods happened to be the key search area. Amuro Toru was affected by it, which was so unlucky that anyone who heard about it would cry.
"If he acted like a real firm boss, there wouldn't be so much trouble." Jiang Xia sighed and looked at Curacao again.
Feeling that this colleague was not acting seriously, he said in order to protect his own aloe vera: "And you actually saw someone the police didn't notice - such a keen eye can be easily exposed. If I were you, I would carry out the image of a lawyer to the end."
Curacao's ears twitched, and he immediately became alert: Was this a warning, a reminder, or a threat? Was he dissatisfied with her behavior, as it was not in line with the norm and had disrupted the established stage?
She pricked up her ears, waiting to hear more information, but Jiang Xia only said that one sentence and then there was no more news.
Curacao hesitated between asking and not asking.
Before she could think it through, there was a sudden sound of armor colliding in front of her.
The others also heard it, and they looked up in confusion. In the increasingly thick fog, they saw a group of armored warriors walking in a group. Their momentum was terrifying, and combined with the rumors, it seemed particularly eerie.
"Don't be afraid." Xun Menghuang stroked the cat in his arms, "Those are all people from the village - this is our 'Samurai Festival', the villagers will dress up as samurai and march around the village in groups."
As they were talking, a group of warriors approached and passed by them.
There was only one path in the forest, and everyone was forced to pass through the warriors.
Mao Lilan was so nervous that she became stiff. She was pulled forward by two classmates like a zombie.
Her two classmates were also very nervous, worried that Mao Li Ran would be frightened and punch or kick out of fear - although the villagers wore armor, it was more like a decoration and might not be able to protect against a frightened attack from Mao Li Ran.
Fortunately, the tragedy did not happen in the end, and the three high school students successfully passed through the group of warriors.
The armored warriors walked away with a clatter, not knowing what they had just brushed past.
The two groups met and then walked away separately.
Soon, only one figure was left at the intersection.
Curacao lowered his head and looked at his bare feet: "..."
When she was passing through the group of warriors just now, she stared at the swords on their waists, which she couldn't tell whether they were real or fake, and defended herself against possible attacks from all directions.
However, no one drew his knife to attack her, but someone stepped on her high heels and knocked them off.
