Chapter 1892: 1892【Return to Detective】
Instead of making up an excuse for not opening the door to Jiang Xia and being suspected by this keen detective of having a ghost in his heart, it is better to say hello openly now.
"What are you talking about?" Heise and Ma had already left the door and stood behind them.
Seeing Maya Hashimoto and Saburo Inozuka refusing to move for a long time, he whispered suspiciously: "Didn't you say before that, in order to prevent false accusations, we'd better take a detective with us—now that the detective has come to the door himself, that's it." Isn't it a good thing, why are you two panicking?"
Saburo Inozuka was taken aback: "..." That's right, why should I panic. I have not committed any crimes now, and detectives are friendly forces to me, and they are good tools that can be used!
"..." Maya Hashimoto was always worried that Jiang Xia would attract Uzuo, but he didn't dare to disclose such detailed information to other peripheral members, lest he be silenced inexplicably.
Finally, he had to take a deep breath: "...Then open the door."
Extending the head and retracting the head is also a stroke.
Anyway, unless you escape here overnight, you will be bumped into by Jiang Xia sooner or later. That being the case, it is better to choose a way that is least likely to arouse suspicion.
Hashimoto Maya: "..." If I remember correctly, Jiang Xia was already testing him in Inozuka Jiro's case last time. I must not treat Jiang Xia lightly just because he is a good person, that will only leave more flaws for this famous detective - although Jiang Xia will not kill, but if he sees his identity, things will be troublesome.
…
The three of them finally opened the door with a bit of hesitation.
Maya Hashimoto also imagined that after opening the door, he would face various crises and various questions.
However, he never thought that the first question he was asked was...
"Mr. Hashimoto, it's really you." The high school student outside was stunned when he saw the scene in the room clearly, "The three of you... live in the same room?"
"..."
Maya Hashimoto took a deep breath: "We are here to help the theater troupe, because there are more guests than expected to watch the drama, and there are not enough rooms. After all, we are only half of the staff, so we have to squeeze to make room for the guests. .”
Jiang Xia seemed to believe it: "So that's the case."
The attention of Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko was no longer on Maya Hashimoto at this time.
They huddled together, and the three of them looked into the room over the door, a little nervous: "Everywhere is blood red, this kind of room is too scary, isn't it a haunted house prepared by the troupe? To let the guests better experience the drama atmosphere?"
This question is indeed critical.
It's a pity that the trio in the room didn't know anything about it: "I don't know, the hotel manager didn't tell us." That nasty riddleman.
Wenyue Hualian hesitated for a moment, and said, "I've heard rumors about this room—many years ago, a guest booked this room, and the guest's name on the registration book at that time was...'Red Beard 'Santa Claus'."
The high school students remembered the signature on the threatening letter, looked at each other, and vaguely understood why the police attached importance to that letter.
The three peripheral members of the organization have never heard of this inside story. Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly turned cold, Inozuka Saburo instinctively cheered for the idol: "Red beard? That's funny, he must be a non-mainstream uncle, hahaha...ha...haha."
Finding that other people, including Wenyue Hualian who said the name, didn't mean to smile, but looked dignified, Inozuka Saburo scratched the back of his head in embarrassment: "Cough, it's nothing, that... go on! You go on!"
Wen Yuehualian nodded: "He lived here for a long time, until one day, when the waiter came to clean up, he found the 'Santa Claus with the red beard' lying motionless on the bed—he tragically turned into a corpse."
Speaking of this, she lowered her eyes uncomfortably: "It is said that since then, people have often seen a red figure hovering in this room, or heard moans and screams from the room."
Maolilan and Suzuki Sonoko squeezed closer and closer, with unconcealable horror in their eyes.
Besides, the three peripheral members of the organization... breathed a sigh of relief.
—It turns out that someone died in the house.
What is there to be afraid of the dead, they have filled the Tokyo Bay without knowing how many. If they were even afraid of this, they wouldn't be able to drive their car.
But one thing is still puzzling: "So why are the lights in the room red? Could it be to commemorate that 'Red Bearded Santa Claus'?"
"this…"
Wen Yue Hualian had just opened her mouth when an angry voice suddenly sounded in the distance: "Hualien? Where are you!"
"Ah, here we come!" Wenyue Hualian responded quickly and ran over quickly.
Wen Yuehualian walked through the corridor and quickly disappeared at the stairs, as if she had descended to the corner of the stairs.
The person waiting there has already cursed angrily: "You know how to hang out all day long, and you have never been reliable at critical times!"
Miwako Sato heard her classmate being scolded, and looked over there: "Who is so fierce?"
Saburo Inozuka sighed sadly: "It should be Bandai Suzue."
"Bandai Suzue?" Mao Lilan's eyes lit up again, "Is that the screen actress who has been popular for many years? I have heard that she founded this troupe after she retired. I didn't expect that I would meet her in front of Kaiyan." to real people."
Seeing her happy, Jiang Xia asked, "Shall I accompany you to get an autograph?"
Mo Lilan was immediately moved. She really wanted to sign an autograph, but she heard Bandai Suzue reprimanding the members, so she didn't dare to go there.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xia saw her hesitation at a glance, and thoughtfully planned to provide help. Mao Lilan's courage returned: "Then let's put down our luggage and go there. It just happened to be able to investigate that threatening letter by the way!"
Several high school students happily went to their respective rooms. They threw their luggage into the room and slipped to the corridor, waiting for an opportunity to ask for autographs.
The three members of the organization temporarily retreated into the room and looked at each other: "What shall we do?"
"What else can I do." Hashimoto Maya looked at his watch, his heart was numb, but he could only think hard, "Come along, it's almost time for us 'temporary workers' to go to work—than Hiding in the house together and being regarded as a murderer, or being poisoned, it would be better to follow those students... huh?!"
Maya Hashimoto suddenly remembered something.
—Jiang Xia and his two weak female classmates, as well as the weaker primary school student, have met several times.
I've met them several times, doesn't that mean that their location is relatively safe?
If I also sneak into Jiang Xia's small team...
This thought suddenly flashed, and Hashimoto Maya gradually became a little moved: Anyway, it has reached the worst point now, how about...pretending to be a detective?
