Chapter 344 The Art of Gin Rebounding
In addition, Amuro Toru didn't know what commission Jiang Xia had taken, so he couldn't answer Conan's question.
So his attention was naturally focused on digging holes in Conan's words:
"You didn't ask Jiang Xia because you couldn't get in touch with him?
"He is an adult, and he only accepted the commission in the afternoon. In the evening, you felt that he lost contact and started looking for someone... What happened in the middle?
"Also, where did you hear that he had a commission in the afternoon, he told others on purpose, did you hear it?"
If the answer to the last question is yes, it means that Jiang Xia realizes the danger of today's entrustment, so he has left clues to those he trusts in advance... Then again, why didn't Jiang Xia come to him? How could he be more reliable than those neighbors... Could it be that Jiangxia discriminates against the cadres of the organization, or is he doing something unfavorable to the organization?
"..." Conan was hit head-on by a series of questions, and suddenly understood why those who had been questioned by him in the past gradually became less friendly.
He hesitated. I remembered that I had reported to the Mumu police department that Amuro had a gun with him. After that, the Mumu Police Department did not do anything else, indicating that the police did not find any problems with Anshitou, and the boss of this detective agency was barely credible.
And there are no other clues at the moment.
Conan then decided to reveal a little detail: "Brother Jiang Xia's classmates invited him to go to the concert this afternoon, but brother Jiang Xia said that he had an entrustment today and refused. I overheard the news at that time. Then today evening……"
He briefly explained what had just happened.
Of course, I omitted everything related to Kudo Shinichi, and only said that I heard the voice of another person on the phone call from Jiang Xia, and that person could not have appeared next to Jiang Xia at that time.
Amuro listened silently, and couldn't help but glanced at the receiver on the way, the more he listened, the more he felt that something was wrong with this child named Conan.
Obviously only a first-year elementary school student, but his speech is smooth and his logic is clear. And it seems that today's incident is that he discovered the abnormality himself, not someone else told him-if it was another child, he might easily be deceived by the voice changer, and he would not think that someone on the other side of the phone would impersonate him.
However, speaking of first-year children, another figure uncontrollably appeared in Amuro's mind.
—that was another little boy he had met at the Izu Princess Hotel.
Although the kid in the scarf is not as long as Conan, he can touch porcelain, calculate, and stick needles very accurately, and Amuro Toru was confused by his appearance at the time, and he was careless at the time. In contrast, Amuro immediately suppressed the strangeness in his heart.
Maybe he has been out of childhood for too long, and he lacks a correct understanding of today's children... The flowers of the motherland are really growing stronger and stronger, but the direction of growth is worrying. Especially the little boy who loves needles.
Amuro Toru took a moment to look away, and his thoughts quickly returned to the right track.
Although he learned the general situation from Conan's description, he still can't see the purpose of the person who controlled Jiangxia's mobile phone through this information.
In addition, when it comes to "voice change", he thinks of a person.
Belmod, known as the "Witch with a Thousand Faces".
According to Amuro Toru's intelligence, Belmod had secretly came to Tokyo from the United States not long ago.
...If it was her, she would indeed be able to do such a thing, but her motives were puzzling—why would a new organization cadre target Jiang Xia, who had almost no contact with the organization?
...Wait, if you have to say it, it can't be considered unrelated. In the impression, Belmod seems to hate Shirley, and part of the reason she came to Tokyo is to track down this bottle of defected wine.
In Xue Li's few interpersonal relationships, Jiang Xia was clearly able to rank first.
If I remember correctly, Jinjiu approached Jiang Xia because of this.
I didn't expect that Belmod came again after so long.
... And Belmod has always liked to consume members of the organization, people with code names can't escape, not to mention the peripheral members. If things go on like this, even if Jiang Xia doesn't do anything, she may be angered by her.
Amuro Toru gradually frowned.
After hung up Conan's call, he first called Jiang Xia to confirm.
After discovering that Jiang Xia's mobile phone was indeed turned off, Anshito took out another mobile phone.
As a waistcoat with multiple jobs and multiple salaries, he also has more than one phone.
Amuro doesn't have Belmod's current mobile phone number, but as far as he knows, Belmod has a pretty good relationship with Gin.
And there are many part-time jobs for gin and wine, including part of the personnel authority. Belmod will definitely contact him when he comes here. Therefore, Jinjiu may know what Belmod is doing recently, and whether he has nothing to do to persecute innocent underage peripheral members.
After entering Gin's phone number, Toru Amuro pressed the dial button without any burden, without the slightest guilt that he was occupying the labor force of the organization.
can add to the busy gin, which in itself makes him +1 mood.
In addition, even if Jiang Xia's disappearance has nothing to do with Belmod, this can also be a good excuse for inquiring about news - in normal times, Bourbon asks Belmod's whereabouts for no reason, which is a bit suspicious no matter how you look at it. .
But now, Belmod may have taken Jiang Xia, and Jiang Xia is now his employee, and he will ask this matter again, and it will be a lot more justifiable.
The phone rang several times before someone picked it up.
The sound of gin came, accompanied by the clatter of flipping the calendar: "What's the matter?"
Really works all the time... Fortunately, there are not many people like this in the organization. Amuro Toru was a little worried at first, but quickly calmed down.
"Jiangxia lost contact, I suspect he is in Belmode."
Toru Amuro omits the intermediate reasoning process, and directly states the conclusion, by the way, he habitually adds a provocation:
"The idea of you looking for Shirley is really the same. If you can't find anyone, take out the irrelevant members - because you can't start and you're embarrassed to sit, so you have to use this kind of ineffective labor to fill the empty time, so that you can let yourself Is there an illusion of high efficiency?"
Jin Jiu said in a cold voice, "It is the task of all the cadres in Tokyo to recover Shirley, including the intelligence elements like you who have spent a lot of money in the organization but haven't even found a hair of Shirley. You are also worthy of this. To make fun of me?"
Halfway through his sneer, he suddenly remembered that among the funds in Bourbon's pocket, many of them were brought back by himself, and the smile gradually disappeared.
