Chapter 2283 2295 [Bodyguard at Work]
As he walked towards the group of people in Jiang Xia, the middle-aged man comforted himself in his heart: "…" Relax, don't panic. It's just a few more people joining in the fun, it's not a big problem.
——Young detectives are impatient and like to take risks alone when encountering any problems. As long as you seize the opportunity and guide them well, there will be no big problems with the plan.
Thinking of this, the middle-aged man smiled at Jiang Xia and introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Haitang Yangtai."
He pointed to the side and said, "This is my wife, Haitang Qianhe. She has been writing mystery novels, and has read many reports about you. She respects you very much!" - Start by praising her, praise her hard, and praise her until she forgets everything else!
Upon hearing this, Haitang Qianhe strode forward with a weight of 200 kilograms and shook hands with Jiang Xia.
Then she retracted her plump hand and pointed at the low-key young female assistant behind her: "This is my assistant, Sachiko Shimura. During your stay at my home, if you want to eat or drink anything, just tell her and she will arrange it."
Shimura Sachiko, who was hiding in the back like an invisible person, was startled when she heard this, and could only smile and walk out: "That's right, just give me your orders."
Haitang Yangta: “…” He was just worried that Shimura Sachiko was too stupid and would be discovered by Jiang Xia, so he deliberately ignored her just now to reduce her presence. As a result, this yellow-faced woman actually pushed her in front of the detective... Humph, women are indeed the most vicious. I will kill you tonight and get rid of this harm to the people.
…
Mr. and Mrs. Haitang took the few visitors on a brief tour around the villa.
Vodka followed Jiang Xia silently: "..." What is this for, warming up the stage? Ha, this guy probably knows more about the structure of your house than you three do. I bet this guy knows at least ten places where you can get killed, but you are completely unaware of the hidden dangers in your house.
Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Li Ran fell behind, looking at the flowers in the garden and gossiping curiously.
Suzuki Sonoko asked Mao Lilan quietly: "Do you think 'Haitang' is Mrs. Haitang's original surname or Mr. Haitang's original surname?"
After marriage, the couple has to change their surnames to the same. In very rare cases, the man takes the woman's surname, but most of the time, the woman takes the man's surname - for example, Maori Ran's mother, Kisaki Eri, is now actually called "Maori Eri" in official documents.
This is a curious question. Mao Lilan looked at Haitang Youta, then at Haitang Chizuru, and whispered: "I don't know why, but I always feel that Mr. Haitang Youta doesn't have that kind of... well, he doesn't have that kind of temperament of a live-in son-in-law."
He didn't care about his wife at all, but instead interacted more with the female assistant next to him.
Suzuki Sonoko also felt strange: "Maybe this Mr. Haitang is not 'unemployed' as the newspaper said, but has some great job that we don't know about?"
Under normal circumstances, Conan might eavesdrop with his ears perked up and suddenly interrupt to analyze the situation.
But now, he had no time to listen to the two classmates talking. Conan focused all his attention on Vodka, and walked carefully in his blind spot, eavesdropping and peeking, always ready to interrupt Vodka's plot to get close to Jiang Xia.
Vodka: "..." What is this kid doing circling around behind me? He must be plotting something bad again. I really want to crush him with one foot!
...No, no, no, calm down, the atmosphere in this villa is already tense enough, he can't add fuel to the fire, that will only make the situation out of control!
As the two people were in silent confrontation and wary of each other, wisps of soft, sweet, and fluffy ice cream-flavored murderous aura floated out, then automatically fell off and were caught by the ghosts who were happily welcoming them.
…
After touring the villa and having a simple afternoon tea, it was time for the storytelling requested by the client.
The two parties sat down in the lounge.
At this time, Haitang Qianhe suddenly turned to her husband and the young female assistant and said, "You two should go out first. The following conversation may become the material for my new book. I hope to keep a sense of mystery in front of you. After all, you are the first audience I am most looking forward to."
Young female assistant: “…” Haha, you speak so nicely, but who knows if you are afraid that we will steal your ideas.
She rolled her eyes in her heart, but still stood up respectfully and retreated with Haitang Yangtai.
"What is this woman doing!" After closing the door and walking a few steps, the young female assistant couldn't help but complain to Haitang Yangtai in a low voice, "She was so secretive and even kicked us out. How petty."
"Haha, isn't this just right?" Haitang Yangtai laughed, "Go wait for me outside on the lawn, we'll go for a walk later."
The young female assistant nodded and walked towards the door.
Haitang Yangtai restrained his smile, went straight to the kitchen not far away, turned on the valve of the gas tank, and quickly closed all the windows.
——What if there are many people coming? A gas explosion can kill them all!
"I didn't expect the opportunity I was waiting for would come so soon..."
He laughed and left in a good mood.
…
Not long after the figure in the kitchen disappeared, another figure walked in.
Vodka moved his nose and smelled a strange smell.
He was startled and his eyes fell on the gas tank. He immediately rushed over to tighten the switch again, then pushed open the window.
"Those two guys are really restless. Fortunately, I was vigilant enough!" Vodka felt fortunate when he thought of the smug look in Haitang Yangtai's eyes before he left.
After feeling thankful, he was suddenly startled.
"Wait, why should I turn off the gas?" Vodka looked at the tightly closed valve and fell into deep thought. "Actually, if I just leave it open like this and then quickly leave the villa, I can let other people die in the sea of fire. In this way, I won't have to endure the terrible threat brought by Wuzo anymore. It's like killing two birds with one stone!"
This thought suddenly flashed through his mind, making his heart beat fast.
The next moment, Vodka's eyes, which were full of fantasy, suddenly became clear.
"No, I can guess that those two people are plotting something, how come Wuzo doesn't know anything about it?"
Vodka realized it belatedly and broke out in a cold sweat: "If this place really exploded, it would not be Uzo who would be in trouble, but me who is hiding somewhere else.
"As long as that guy is present, any weapon of death may turn against its owner and kill him. If you want to avoid this, the best way is to make sure there is nothing lethal on the field, such as these dangerous gas leaks!"
Vodka quickly sorted out his thoughts. He completely gave up the idea of reopening the valve, left the room as if nothing had happened, and went to the bathroom - he had just followed him out of the room on the pretext of going to the bathroom.
