Chapter 66: Halo is so scary
Chapter 66 Halo is so terrifying
Kudo Yukiko quickly caught up and grabbed Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia turned around and looked at her silently.
Yukiko Kudo's eyes flickered, and she explained in a low voice: "There are too many people here, I'm afraid of being recognized and causing riots, that..." She changed the topic with a guilty conscience, "Why do you still go out in such a cold day? What kind of commission did you receive? Well? Listen to the doctor, you are a part-time detective recently?"
good question.
Jiang Xia shook his head: "I'm going to participate in a variety show themed on detectives. The salary is very high. I heard that if the effect is good, I will have the opportunity to appear as a long-term guest."
"Really..." Kudo Yukiko was startled.
She touched her chin and recalled Jiang Xia's words. It sounds like Jiang Xia values the salary of this show and is looking forward to becoming a long-term guest.
... Think about it too, Jiang Xia's parents who were taciturn, unsociable, and looked very irresponsible are gone. So at this age when her son was still using pocket money to engage in rebellion and secret love, Jiang Xia could only support herself.
Although I heard from the doctor, Jiang Xia has now become a well-known detective. But in fact, most of the cases that Jiang Xia solved were accidentally involved, not entrusted, and he probably couldn't get much commission fee.
Going to a variety show as a long-term guest, compared with part-time jobs, the income is undoubtedly much higher and more stable...
Thinking of this, Kudo Yukiko looked at Jiang Xia and felt that he had a suitable appearance and should have excellent professional qualities. It would be a piece of cake to get the job if you get the advice of a kind-hearted professional—yes, like her Yukiko Kudo.
Kudo Yukiko looked at Jiang Xia with a burning heart of love, and at the same time, there was a sense of accomplishment that she was about to shine in her professional field.
She slapped her chest: "Leave it to me!"
"...Huh?" Jiang Xia was a little surprised.
Although he had long known that Yukiko Kudo had a lively personality and occasionally acted impulsive, he really didn't expect that he would abduct people so quickly.
Obviously there are many follow-up rhetoric that are useless... Is your aura a bit strong?
Jiang Xia lowered his head and looked at himself secretly.
But unfortunately, even for psychics, the aura can be regarded as metaphysics, invisible to the naked eye and impossible to quantify. It's just that Jiang Xia knows that everyone's aura has a specific nature, which will have a greater impact on a certain type of person.
... Now it seems that Yukiko Kudo happens to be in that "certain kind of person".
When Jiang Xia was thinking, Kudo Yukiko stood next to him, looking at Jiang Xia more and more pleasing to the eye, and deeply felt that she had made the right decision - how could she be frustrated on the mere variety show when she looked at the grown child!
I have to teach Jiang Xia some experience... Well, by the way, it's better to go to the scene and support the scene.
When a child is on the show for the first time, parents usually sit in the audience to witness this historic moment. Now that Jiang Xia's parents are gone, let her make a friendly cameo—what other children have, Jiang Xia also has.
Kudo Yukiko kindly sorted Jiang Xia's wrinkled sleeves and asked, "Which TV station is it?"
Jiang Xia didn't keep up with her rhythm. She paused before saying, "Rizai TV, that variety show called 'Perspective Detective Agency'."
"Yeah, I've heard of it." Yukiko Kudo sorted out the main points of similar programs in her mind, pulled Jiang Xia up to the subway entrance not far away, and started making up classes temporarily.
Going down to the station and seeing the subway whizzing by, Yukiko Kudo felt vaguely that she seemed to have forgotten something.
As she tried to recall, she accidentally caught a glimpse of Jiang Xia, and her thoughts suddenly shifted.
——By the way, Jiang Xia is different from her, a complete newcomer. So when explaining the main points, it must be in line with the newcomer's position... Well, yes, she almost forgot, it must be this.
…
after an hour.
In an empty house a few hundred meters from the subway station.
The effect of the anesthesia passed, and Conan gradually came to his senses. He looked at the cold and hard floor under him, and then looked at the hemp rope tied around him, and stayed for a while.
After a while, Conan recalled what happened before, and sat up suddenly after being startled, and then found that he was in an abandoned kitchen.
When was doubting his life, Conan heard a movement in the living room.
He walked gently to the closed door and looked out through the hole in the door.
I saw a man in black with a smiling face mask in the living room.
Conan thought for a while, and judged calmly——all in black... Well, this person is probably the same as Edogawa Fumyo, who was sent by the black organization to arrest him.
In the living room, the man in black behaved very strangely, as if he was looking for something.
The man moved from the living room to the balcony, and found the bathroom, master bedroom, side bedroom... Finally, he returned to the living room with nothing, took out his mobile phone, and made a call.
Seeing this, Conan seemed to understand.
——The Edogawa Fumyo who kidnapped him was not in the room. Could the man in black be looking for an accomplice?
