Chapter 699: What about people?
Chapter 699 Where are the people?
Jiang Xia quickly stopped.
But apparently it was too late.
——When he turned his head nonchalantly, he saw Conan's expression beside him, and it turned out to be very complicated.
In Conan's opinion, the subconscious reaction of being small shows at least one thing - Amuro Toru is indeed the kind of scum who will litter bugs or even throw them on employees. Only in this way can we explain why when the topic of "bugging" was mentioned just now, Jiang Xia's first reaction was to look for it, not "Haha, how is it possible, boss, he's not that kind of person".
“…”
Thinking of this, Conan didn't know whether he should be relieved or not.
At least this time, Jiang Xia seems to have discovered something wrong with An Shitou... It seems that he is not completely incapable of distinguishing scumbags, but he discovered it a little late.
There is no way to do this, of course, the scumbags will deliberately approach geniuses first, although the purpose is not pure, but that kind of passionate approach is obviously true, because Jiang Xia will be useful to them.
Then, when necessary, the scumbags will reveal their sinister true colors in order to use Jiang Xia to achieve some unspeakable goals... Until then, Jiang Xia will want to do what he should have done to "bring the scumbags to justice". This kind of thing will become as difficult as killing a family with righteousness.
Conan hesitated for a moment, but he couldn't pretend to know nothing.
He couldn't help but ask: "What are you doing when you go out this time? - For some people, reining in the precipice is the wisest decision, and letting them break the law will only harm him."
Jiang Xia: "..." He didn't seem to say anything, and the pots flew over one by one by himself, stacking them on the boss.
…Fortunately this is not a big deal.
Although Conan is an all-rounder who graduated from the Hawaii special training class, as a primary school student, he has no right to arrest people. Even if he catches up with FBI in the future, this place will still be the territory of the island police for the time being.
In short, in the eyes of Conan and other red squares, no matter how much pot the boss has, the police can find all kinds of reasons not to arrest him, not to mention Amuro Toru would never leave anyone a clue for arrest.
Thinking that the boss is a heavyweight king who can carry countless heavy pots on his shoulders and will never fall, Jiang Xia's guilty conscience suddenly dissipated a lot.
So facing Conan's question, he hesitated for a while: "There is a commission."
Then when Conan's eyes narrowed and he wanted to break the casserole and ask the question to the end, he sighed and cut off the other party's words: "Don't ask." With a deep head slap, like a mature adult with countless pressures To the ignorant children, "I don't want to say."
Conan: "..."
... He really likes to ask questions, and he is good at it. He can always get to the point accurately, until he asks the truth, or someone interrupts, or asks that the other party can't stand the entanglement and wants to attack him.
But no matter what the situation is, those who have been asked by him are basically in a cold sweat while answering to the limit... But now, Jiang Xia suddenly and very clearly asked him not to ask.
Conan was briefly lost in thought.
... Few people ask him "don't ask". In fact, Conan still wanted to ask, but the moral sense that a famous detective should have made it difficult for him to refuse for a while.
After a little tangled effort, the topic has gone astray.
"We almost have to go back." Jiang Xia took out his mobile phone, pressed the light to check the date, and turned to Conan, "Since your maple leaves have already been read, do you want to drop by?"
As he said that, Jiang Xia thought to himself: Although the mission is over, the incident should not be over yet. On the way back, not only have to pass through half of Gunma Prefecture, but also pass through Saitama Prefecture, and finally arrive at Tokyo. Along the way, whenever the boss bursts a tire or two...
Thinking like this, Jiang Xia stood up, temporarily leaving Conan, who was very thoughtful, and walked towards Amuro Toru's room expectantly. It is the maple leaf season here, and there are many guests staying here. Their rooms are not next to each other, but separated by some distance.
…
Then got to the place and found a dolly in the hallway and the cleaner was cleaning up the room.
Jiang Xia thought at first that this might just be a daily routine.
But when I probed in and took a look, all the luggage was gone.
“…?”
…What about people?
There is so much luggage, even if some of it is secret, Amuro Toru can't carry it with him when he is having breakfast or walking. At most, the secret part will be taken out.
But now...no, nothing.
Shouldn’t…
Jiang Xia gradually had a bad premonition in his heart.
followed, and Conan, who was wary of onlookers, was also stunned.
Jiang Xia looked at the empty room for a while, then turned to the cleaner who had noticed him.
Looking at each other for a moment, Jiang Xia hesitated and said, "That, the people who live here..."
The cleaner recalled the record on the dispatch: "The gentleman has already checked out."
Jiang Xia: "?"
Conan: "??"
Conan was puzzled for a moment, then looked up at Jiang Xia.
Seeing that Jiang Xia's surprise was very real, he seemed to be completely unaware of it.
And I don't know why, Conan found that after his neighbor was stunned, his eyes fell to the air next to him, looking like he was distracted, but Conan couldn't be sure if it was his own illusion - he always felt that Jiang Xia When I was in a daze, my gaze was not the potted plants in the corner, but more like hovering in the air.
"..." Although I don't know what happened, this kind of weird situation still made Conan alert.
He stretched out his hand and tugged at the hem of Jiang Xia's clothes: "Are you all right?"
"……fine."
Jiang Xia looked back from the strange landing spot, and the whole person looked much normal. Conan breathed a sigh of relief and looked in that direction again, but saw nothing. In the end, I had to think that the dust was stirred up by the cleaners, and Jiang Xia was watching them.
When Conan looked at the air suspiciously.
Beside , Jiang Xia pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned around and went downstairs, walked through the corridor and the quaint stairs, all the way to the front desk.
…
"You mean the gentleman who has a Japanese name but looks like a foreigner?"
It was a little early, and the front desk was not on shift yet. Among the people currently on duty, there happened to be a front desk who helped Amuro go through the formalities in the middle of the night.
She obviously had an impression of An Shitou: "That gentleman checked out early in the morning and left overnight, saying that he was in a hurry... By the way, you are Jiang Xia."
The front desk endured it for a long time, but he couldn't help but turn into star eyes as he talked - watching Jiang Xia up close, compared to watching it on TV, it's different... I want to reach out and pinch to see if it's true Yes, but as an inn employee, that seems rude.
