Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 1050: 1049 [Uzuo has a good temper]

   "Huh?...Oh, thank you."

The secretary reached out and took the business card in surprise, and her eyes fell on the place with Jiang Xia's signature. She subconsciously ignored the meaning of the "business card" itself, and assumed it as a "signature board" by default. After admiring for a moment, she happily put it into her pocket. .

  Jiang Xia waited for a while, but before the person on the other side handed over his business card, he couldn't help but glance at her more, and issued a silent urging: "...?"

  The secretary really didn't come to sign, she obviously misunderstood the purpose of Jiang Xia's urging: "Well, I'll make a long story short, it's actually like this—"

   She put away the surprise gift from Jiang Xiagang, looked around vigilantly, then approached the detective and whispered:

   "The banquet performance is about to start, but my boss hasn't gone out. I went to his lounge and knocked on the door, but no one responded, so I want to invite you to come and take a look."

   Conan stretched out his ears to eavesdrop: "..." That's it?

  ...Who would run over to find a detective because the boss didn't open the door!

   Jiang Xia glanced at Conan's complicated expression, showing a similar expression. He looked at the secretary opposite: "Is it possible that he left temporarily, or was on the phone and didn't hear it?"

   The secretary shook his head: "The boss's lounge is a suite with a bathroom. According to his habit, if he hears a knock on the door, even if he doesn't want to make a sound, he will definitely respond in the email, but he doesn't.

   "I knocked on the door for a while, and remembered that there have been similar incidents in many documentary reports of cases-some people's door was suddenly unresponsive, and then they knocked on the door and went in to see that someone had an accident, etc...

   "Actually, I tried to call the police just now, but the police refused to come. I was worried about what to do, and I saw you unexpectedly - the detective must be very good at handling these things!"

  Conan: "…"

   His gaze towards the secretary suddenly became more complicated: Has this guy read too many detective novels? He looks mature and stable on the outside, but he didn't expect that on the inside...

   Jiang Xia looked at the secretary and then at Conan, and was silent for a while:

   This secretary who came from nowhere can see things clearly, very different from some high school students who have become smaller... Maybe detectives are so blindly optimistic before encountering a case?

  It’s right to think about it. With the frequency of high school detectives encountering cases, if there is a slight disturbance, they will immediately take precautions, then they may all have to go to see a psychiatrist on a regular basis.

  …

   However, for now, maybe we should take care of it.

Jiang Xia met the secretary's expectant gaze, sighed, and showed a little "although I think you are making trouble unreasonably, but since you insist, I will accompany you to see it": "Where is your boss's rest room? "

   "Please come this way!" The secretary's eyes lit up and bowed to lead the way.

  Conan and Suzuki Sonoko also sighed, gaining a new understanding of how good Jiang Xia is to talk.

   But idle is idle, anyway, they have not found the threat, then follow the secretary to the staff area, maybe they will find something else.

   The two quickly followed Jiang Xia and the secretary, and entered the staff passage next to them.

  …

at the same time.

   A dozen meters away, in the direction of the elevator.

   Amuro Toru came out of the aisle with the tray in hand.

   Just now, after separating from Jiang Xia and the others.

  Amuro Toru went all the way to the floor where the cooking classroom was located, and tried to investigate the situation on Okiya Subaru's side, and touched the bottom of this suspicious person.

  The door of the classroom is well soundproofed, and there is not much movement through the door, only a shrill female voice is vaguely heard, swearing all the time.

   After listening to it for a long time, the voice gradually became familiar, and Amuro, relying on his strong memory, slowly found the source of the familiarity in his mind - this is the voice of Mizhi Kamimori, the master of French cooking.

   Uemori Michi has been on food-related variety shows before, and when Amuro Toru was working in an izakaya, the owner of the izakaya seemed to be a fan of Uemori Michi, and the small TV in the corner had played a lot of her pictures.

  Amuro Toru: "..." Since Shang Mori-sensei is still in the mood to scold people, there shouldn't be any major incidents yet.

   Originally, Tomo Amuro wanted to wait for Mori Michi to feel better, so he pretended to go to the wrong place, pushed the door and went in to see the situation, and caught a few words by the way.

   However, after waiting for a long time, the scolding continued.

  “…”

   After more than ten minutes, Amuro jumped through his forehead and finally decided not to waste any more time.

   He held the doorknob and quietly opened the door, his eyes swept across the cooking classroom, and immediately settled on Okiya Subaru.

   When I saw Subaru Okiya and other students who were serious about cooking, their actions were completely different.

  —Others were paying attention to the ingredients on the table, or pricked up their ears, trying to hear some useful knowledge from Mr. Kamori’s scolding.

   But Okiya Subaru's attention was obviously not on those things related to "cooking", but was staring at an iron sign on the small table next to him, thoughtfully.

   In addition, Okiya Subaru obviously has an alertness that ordinary people do not have.

  - Amuro Toru just silently pushed the door open a crack, when Subaru Okiya raised his eyes and looked over, his level of vigilance was nothing like an ordinary "graduate student who came to study cooking during a break".

   Without waiting to observe any further, Uemori-sensei had already followed Subaru Okiya's gaze and found Toru Amuro who was secretly observing.

   The corridor was a little dark, she didn't see Amuro Toru's face, but she could see the waiter's clothes. So he walked over and slammed the door, with a scolding: "Go back to where you should be!"

  Amuro looked at the closed door in front of him: "..."

  ...In my impression, when I overheard just now, Okiya Subaru seemed to be scolded a lot.

  If this person is really "Uzo", then he has a good temper.

   However, Toru Amuro thought about it: Sometimes, some people are always more tolerant towards those who are dying—although there is no evidence, Toru Amuro always felt that the situation of Michiko Kamori at this time might not be very good.

  …

  Amuro wanted to stop him, but soon, his reason told him—even if she ran over to remind Kasumi Mori to "be more careful", she probably wouldn't listen, instead she would become more irritable, and it would be easy for some people to take advantage of it.

  Thinking of this, Amuro sighed secretly, and decided not to play tricks, but to try to start with his behavior, figure out what Subaru Okiya wanted to do, and then stop him in a targeted manner.

  —Although in front of this suspected "Uzuo" person, Amuro Toru must be an organization cadre who treats ordinary citizens like dust and is ruthless. But fortunately, Uzo used that "invitation letter" to provoke him before.

   Now, even if Amuro saves people, it can be completely interpreted as "deliberately demolishing Uzzo" - in the organization, "Bourbon" has never been a good-natured person.
