Chapter 2959 2971 [Bad Breath]
"?" Everyone turned around in confusion and looked at Inspector Shiratori.
Officer Shiratori looked at Takagi Wataru and asked him in the same tone as when questioning a suspect during an investigation: "Did you solve the robbery just now?"
He put emphasis on the word "you".
"This..." Officer Takagi hesitated for a moment and shook his head honestly: Although he had thought of some key information himself, to be fair, if Jiang Xia had not helped him sort out the testimonies of the first two witnesses and break that crucial gap, he would probably still be dealing with the four suspects until now.
When Inspector Shiratori saw him nod, a sly smile appeared on his lips: "Also, the person who first walked into the box and interrupted this blind date was not you - you were supported by Jiang Xia, so you were half a step slower. When you entered the door, the sun had already set."
"?" Officer Sato heard something wrong in the tone and looked up at him.
The young master flicked his hair and said in a judge-like tone, "It was Jiang Xia who solved the case, and it was also Jiang Xia who walked in here first. So, the person who interrupted this blind date and is eligible to date Officer Sato is actually Jiang Xia."
Crash——!
Before he could finish his words, the shoji was pulled open.
A high school girl who was passing by and objected to this rushed over from the next box and said viciously: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Ms. Suzuki?" Officer Shiratori looked at this familiar person who appeared out of nowhere with some surprise, and then looked at Mao Lilan who followed, "What a coincidence, you are eating here too?"
Suzuki Sonoko, who had been climbing the wall for a long time, paused: "Uh, this..." She was embarrassed to say that she actually came all the way from the city just to eavesdrop on gossip.
Fortunately, Officer Shiratori's attention was not on this little thing. He quickly responded to what Suzuki Sonoko had just said, saying seriously: "This is not nonsense - strictly speaking, Officer Sato and I are betting on Takagi's ability and sense of responsibility, but it is obvious that he is far from qualified in this matter."
Officer Takagi thought of his previous behavior, was speechless and lowered his head in shame.
Officer Sato didn't come back to her senses until now. She looked at Officer Shiratori speechlessly: "You are just as outrageous as my mother. This is a matter between adults, don't involve students - besides, have you asked Jiang Xia for her opinion..."
Jiang Xia: "Sure."
Officer Shiratori: “?!”
He looked over in disbelief, and at the same time realized belatedly that as a love rival, the threat posed by the detective in front of him seemed to be much greater than that of Takagi.
"What's going on? Why didn't I realize that Jiang Xia was interested in Officer Sato before?" Officer Shiratori suddenly realized that he seemed to be inviting a wolf into the house, "Could it be that my love rival radar is not working?
Just as he was thinking, Jiang Xia looked at Suzuki Sonoko, Mao Lilan and Conan who just ran over from the toilet: "But it's really boring to be alone with two people, why don't we go together - I remember Sonoko mentioned a holiday villa for Valentine's Day before, how about going there?"
Officer Shiratori: “…”
...So your understanding of dating is this kind of date where everyone goes out to play together?
"It's okay, it's okay." He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and muttered to himself, "I am narrow-minded. I shouldn't use dirty adult thinking to speculate about a young detective who has not yet fully entered society."
Just as he was thinking about it, Jiang Xia looked at him and the dejected Officer Takagi again, and politely invited: "You are free anyway, why don't you come with us?"
Officer Takagi's eyes were filled with hope: "!" Has the wish of dating Officer Sato on Valentine's Day finally come true? Although there were many other people present, this could definitely be considered a real Valentine's Day date!
This time, he must perform well and win fairly, and not let down like he did today.
Next to him, Officer Shiratori had a similar expression: "!" This detective was unexpectedly fair. He didn't completely favor Takagi just because he had a lot of contact with Jiang Xia - it seemed that the banquet that was just arranged was not in vain.
Miwako Sato on the other side: "..."
She looked at the two guys who were full of fighting spirit and pressed her forehead with a headache.
But no matter what, hanging out with a group of people is always better than dating someone alone. With this group of lively and cute high school students, I don't think it will be awkward at all. It just so happens that I haven't relaxed for a long time...
Without hesitating for too long, Sato Miwako made the decision: "That's settled!"
After she finished speaking, she remembered something and asked Suzuki Sonoko: "By the way, which resort are you going to? Valentine's Day is only a few days away. Is it too late to make a reservation now?"
"Of course there's still time!" Suzuki Sonoko was in a good mood. She didn't expect that Jiang Xia actually remembered what she had casually talked about on the way home from school.
As the original proposer of the tourist spot, she waved her hand and introduced it to everyone like a competent tour guide: "It's the Fukito Sanso. The original selling point of the place was 'close to nature', but later people found that the chocolate made there was like magic - it helped many couples get married!"
"I see!" The two male policemen's eyes flashed, their fingertips resting on their mobile phones, planning to learn how to make chocolate in advance.
…
In the same city, other young girls were also excitedly talking about this place.
Calvados, who had thrown away his last gun, searched unwillingly next to the public toilet. As the sky darkened and the night became quieter, the sound of conversation in the public toilet also came out.
"Magic chocolate?" Calvados paused as he searched for his gun, and suddenly remembered that Valentine's Day seemed to be approaching.
"I remember there's an old saying that goes 'If you lose something in one place, you may gain something in another.' I've been so unlucky in my career recently. Maybe it means I'll make great progress in other areas?"
In an instant, a beautiful figure appeared in his mind.
"If that goddess can eat the chocolate I made and fall in love with me..."
The wonderful fantasy effectively alleviated the severe pain of losing his gun.
Calvados took one last look at this sad land, then he stood up, took out his cell phone, and began to think about what he had just heard about "Fukito Villa".
…
“A-choo!”
In Shuidu Building, an organization cadre dressed as a doctor turned his head and sneezed.
Vermouth frowned and rubbed her nose: "..." Here it comes again, this strange feeling of being talked about by someone...
Just as she was thinking about it, there was a sudden noise and the door of the box where she was hiding opened. A good-looking face, but one that she didn't want to see at the moment, appeared in front of her in an irresistible posture.
"Dr. Shinchu is here too." Jiang Xia looked at her and smiled hospitably, "That's great, let's go together then."
Vermouth: "..."
