Chapter 1981 1981 [Secretary Uzo’s Night Visit]
Maya Hashimoto lowered his head and looked at Conan. At this time, he very much hoped that a heroic parent would fall from the sky, then pick up this kid and beat him on the butt... Unfortunately, nearby Mouri Kogoro was drunk, and it was not him who Conan was annoying. , so the middle-aged uncle pretended not to see it, yawned and passed by leisurely.
Hashimoto Maya: “…”
He had no choice but to get out of the predicament by himself and explained the reason why he switched jobs from Edward: "Didn't I say before that after the plane accident, Mr. Edward and I would always think of that bad experience when we saw each other, so we haven't known each other for a long time. Got in touch."
Conan knew about this, but it always felt like an excuse: "We are also passengers on the plane. You look at Jiang Xia every day and think it's okay?"
Maya Hashimoto took a deep breath: "If Mr. Edward hadn't accidentally touched the gate switch to balance the oil volume, causing all the oil to leak out, we would have experienced a lot fewer emergencies. Although it's not a good thing to say, but In my mind, he was actually a part of the disaster at that time - but Jiang Xia was different. Jiang Xia was the one who saved the entire plane. When I saw him, it was like I saw the dawn of hope."
…I'm sorry, Mr. Ireland, it was all Uzo's minions who forced me! These words I said are all for work needs and have nothing to do with my true inner feelings. You are not a disaster, you are my former good boss!
Conan appraised this statement suspiciously and had to admit that it made sense. Asking too many questions might reveal his own abnormality, so this aggressive fake child decided to give it up.
He nodded: "So that's it. It seems that I wrongly blamed you."
Trying to use the innocent voice of a child to make Maya Hashimoto relax her vigilance, so that this guy can reveal more solid flaws next time.
…
Although Maya Hashimoto seemed eager to take up the job immediately, being too eager made him appear too suspicious.
So in the end, the newly hired employee suppressed his ambition, politely said goodbye to Jiang Xia, and then left with a calm face, but in fact he was very happy.
Jiang Xia looked at his back from a distance: "..." Does this person want to get off work or not?
But forget it, what does it matter whether you think about it or not? It’s not necessary to come and check in.
The unscrupulous boss looked back and started on his way home.
…
"Maya Hashimoto should be going to the detective agency soon." Jiang Xia thought of something, "After all, he is a new employee, so he has to meet boss Amuro. It is too ordinary to work for him, so he has to help him dress up and give him some advice. The real boss of the firm was sufficiently impressed.”
Thinking about this, he quickly thought of a nice set of decorations—sunglasses and a knitted hat.
"It's not because the knitted hat is Akai Shuichi's standard accessory. Maya Hashimoto's similarity to him will be greatly increased when wearing this. It's because the new boys have become detectives to prevent him from accidentally removing his hair when checking the corpse. If it falls on the scene and causes trouble, it is necessary for me, the boss, to give him a hat to remind him to wear it at all times to protect his innocence."
The more Jiang Xia thought about it, the more he felt that this arrangement was good.
So soon, the lights in Jiang Xia's house dimmed, and the owner seemed to have entered a regular sleep. But not long after, another figure climbed out of the window of his house and landed silently.
Jiang Xia drove Miss Spider's puppet, straightened her skirt after landing, turned and walked out of the courtyard.
—Sending a gift is a trivial matter, but if Matsuda Jinpei, the "Usa", comes in person, it seems to be a bit of a fuss.
In this case, let this temporary external secretary appear. Anyway, she had already met Ireland when she was in London, and now it was normal for her to meet Ireland's former confidant again.
…
Early morning. Maya Hashimoto was resting in her new residence. Suddenly, in her light sleep, she vaguely heard the sound of a window sliding open.
He was startled. Before he was fully awake, he had already grabbed the gun hidden by the pillow, rolled over to the inside of the bed, then leaned his back against the wall, and quietly poked his head out as if huddled in a trench.
—Normally he is not so alert, but now that he has just changed his residence, he has a terrible new boss, and Maya Hashimoto can't sleep even if he wants to.
I thought that this kind of light sleep would only reduce my efficiency, but I didn't expect that there would be an accident on the first night after I changed my accommodation.
He looked at the window with great vigilance, and then through the moonlight, he saw an additional figure in the room.
It was a strange woman, wearing a slightly fluffy black dress, with her shoulders exposed, shining in the white moonlight. She wore a black gauze hair ornament diagonally on her head. It was not wide and only lightly covered half of her forehead.
Trespassing into someone else's room and being discovered by the owner of the house, she did not panic at all. She just stretched out a plain white hand, pulled out the stool next to the desk, and sat down very elegantly.
Then his eyes fell to the bedside: "What are you doing there? You're welcome, please sit wherever you like."
Hashimoto Maya: "?"
…Am I the owner of the house or am I the owner of the house?
Speaking of which, who is this person?
Maya Hashimoto’s eyes fell on her, staring at the black dress and hair accessories, and suddenly she remembered something.
While in London, Mr. Ireland revealed some of his experiences, including information about a woman in black—it was said that she was one of Uzzo's minions.
Maya Hashimoto: "..." Uzo has too many minions. He is already so scary, why should he continue to develop offline?
However, thinking of Uzzo's extremely high murder efficiency and seemingly high status in the organization, he felt that everything made sense.
Maya Hashimoto looked at the woman in black and didn't see her hiding a gun, nor did she have a gun in her hand. Then she spoke cautiously: "Are you the person sent by that gentleman?"
He felt awkward after calling him, and "that gentleman" sounded too flattering.
…But he didn’t dare to reveal Uzo’s code name before he fully understood the other party’s identity. If you don't call it that, you can't say "that guy", "that thing", or "that person" - no matter which one sounds disrespectful.
Compared with being put in the shoes of your boss, please be more flattering.
After conscience, Maya Hashimoto abandoned moral integrity in despair.
Fortunately, the woman in black opposite seemed to have no objection to his title. She nodded slightly: "Mr. Uzo is quite satisfied with your performance today. Let me give you an entry gift on his behalf."
Hashimoto Maya stood up at first, but almost shrank back when he heard the induction ceremony: Will Uzo give gifts? Is it a murder or a serial killing? Did he do something bad today and this woman is here to silence him? !
Just as she was thinking in a cold sweat, the woman in black reached out and touched it, and took out a pure black bag with silver patterns from behind - it turned out to be a gift bag, and it was the kind of expensive brand name. , at first glance, I bought it now.
Hashimoto Maya: "?"
