Chapter 537 Xiuyi's Survival Instinct Asking for a Monthly Pass (▽`)
Hearing Amuro Toru's words, the student Tiansuo Junya was startled, looked down at his mobile phone, and indeed found relevant urgent news: "...It seems that several other guests have to stay today, I will go to give them later. Everyone, clean up your room, please come in first."
…
Although the process was a little tortuous, in the end, Jiang Xia moved into the villa smoothly.
After pushing the door open, the interior of the hall reveals the decoration of medieval European style, with the gloomy sky outside, the bottomless cliff behind the villa, and the whistling snowstorm... The environment is reassuring.
Entering the hall, just a few steps away, the door on the right was suddenly pushed open.
Tokura Etsuko came out wearing a coat.
Amuro glanced at her and found that as expected, this is the mystery novelist they met when they were climbing together a few days ago, and also the hostess of this villa.
... Fortunately, Hucang Etsuko seems to only know Jiang Xia unilaterally, and he is not familiar with Jiang Xia, so it should not have much impact on the observation.
Speaking of which, I always feel that in addition to the incident physique, Jiang Xia's physique when he goes out and has an affair with an acquaintance is even more daunting and impossible to prevent...
…
Hucang Yuezi wanted to find Jiang Xia before, but was interrupted by a sudden murder case and a landslide.
At this time, he found that the person he was looking for descended from the sky and took the initiative to deliver it to the door. Huokura Etsuko was surprised and ran out subconsciously. Then I suddenly remembered that my "entrustment" was inconvenient for others to hear.
... So I had to stop again, smiled awkwardly at the guests, and pretended that I was just a hostess who came out to welcome the guests.
After a few polite words, she took a few steps back to the room.
Tasso Junzai looked at Hukura Etsuko and Jiang Xia suspiciously, and it was difficult to ask about the teacher's family affairs. So in the end, he didn't say anything, pretended not to see it, and led the guests to the living room on the other side.
…
Before Jiang Xia and the others entered, there were already three people in the living room, two men and one woman.
Among them, the middle-aged man and the young man sat opposite each other at the same table, talking in a low voice, and seemed to know each other.
The other woman in a cheongsam sat alone on one side.
An Shi glanced at the past, his eyes stopped on the cheongsam woman, and he thought numbly: Jiang Xia met more acquaintances...
In my impression, this is a private detective named "Gun Tian Yumei".
"Gun Tian Detective Office" is not far from the "Amuro Detective Office".
After Jiang Xia came, the passenger flow of Guntian Yumei gradually decreased. But she already had a lot of savings, so she simply passed all the guests who came looking for cats and dogs to Jiang Xia, and she only took large orders. In this way, the income is not small, but instead a lot of time is freed up for entertainment and travel. Not only has she not become gaunt, but she looks much more nourished than before.
At this time, seeing Jiang Xia and An Shitou coming in, Gun Tian Yumei didn't get up, just nodded as a greeting.
——A few days ago, she received an invitation from Daisuke Torakura, saying that she had an important request to discuss with her. Today, she came a little earlier than scheduled. Daisuke Torokura is still soaking in his favorite study room and has not come out, so she has to wait here for the time being.
Compared to the slightly cold Guntian Yumi, the middle-aged man on the side was much more enthusiastic.
Doi Fumuri looked at Jiang Xia in surprise, and quickly recognized the detective.
He took the initiative to stand up and approached, and introduced himself: "I am the editor-in-chief of "Terrorist Times Monthly", and my surname is Doi."
said, and distributed some business cards to the people who came.
In the impression of editor Doi, the young detective in front of him always encounters some cases that contain horror or horror. And Jiang Xia is also very famous, if you can find an opportunity to cooperate...
Seeing editor Doi like this, the young man beside him did not know Jiang Xia, but he followed suit.
He pressed the simple pince-nez on his face, and also handed out business cards to everyone who came:
"My surname is Yumura, and I work in the Folklore Research Office of Dongcheng University, mainly engaged in vampire-related research - if you have any questions in this regard, you can come to me at any time to communicate."
Jiang Xia took the business card and looked at it politely.
Then, facing the full name of "Hamura Shuichi", he fell silent for a while.
Almost at the same time, the tip of Matsuda's nose spread on his shoulders moved, and suddenly a salted fish kicked up.
And earlier than it, the mermaid had swum gracefully to Amuro Toru, and stretched out his arms unelegantly, hugged the murderous smell of coffee, and shook his tail happily.
"..." Humura Shuuichi vaguely felt that the atmosphere was not right, his hair stood on end, instinctively stared at Toru Amuro and took a step back: "...What's wrong?"
"...Huh? No, it just feels like the subject you are studying is very interesting."
Amuro Toru's tragic memories brought back by the keyword "Shuichi" were interrupted by Hamura Shuuichi's conversation.
He smiled and put away his business card, his murderous aura also subsided.
Mermaid and Matsuda Jinhei let out a disappointed sigh at the same time.
The other ghosts are a little more reserved, but although they didn't sigh, they all looked a little disappointed-the high-level rations came too fast, and the supply was too fast.
Opposite , Hideo Hamura didn't know the reason for the strange atmosphere, so he had to temporarily take the sense of crisis just now as his own illusion.
He hesitated for a moment, moved further away, left the group of guests, and returned to his seat.
…
Suzuki Ayako has not encountered many cases, and her sense of killing intent is a little dull.
After seeing several people exchange business cards peacefully, and after barely getting to know each other, she looked at Toshiya Tian, who was like a housekeeper: "Sorry, something happened on the way, we came much later than the scheduled time. Is Mr. Torokura convenient now?"
When guests come, they should say hello to the host, and the host should also come out to receive...or drive away the uninvited guests.
This is the way it should be.
But Torokura Daisuke is an eccentric writer who is not bound by secular rules.
Tiansuo Junya hesitated: "At this time, the teacher is writing in the study, so I may not be able to receive guests..."
"It doesn't matter." A mature female voice was inserted next to it.
Guntian Yumei turned over her wrist, looked at her watch, and stood up from the table at the same time: "In three minutes, it's time for Mr. Torokura and me to meet up -- you go to say hello now, it won't affect him. writing ideas.”
After provided the news, she looked at Jiang Xia, and the second half of the sentence was addressed to this fellow detective. Compared with just now, the tone is still mild:
"Mr. Torokura is looking for detectives recently, and I don't know what kind of difficult cases he is going to investigate... Maybe he will be happier to see you."
