Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 526 Rum: Uzo is too motivated

   The seat where the waiter led Jiang Xia and Amuro Toru was right by the window in the hall.

  The dishes were served quickly, and the taste was much better than the snacks in the car.

   Jiang Xia finished eating and ate dessert, and spread out comfortably on the seat to digest his food-the best thing about traveling with Amurotou on business, apart from picking up ghosts, is that he doesn't have to worry about his boss being too simple. On the contrary, Bourbon always chooses the best food and lodging, and is often very tasteful, and even the ghosts can follow.

  I don't know how Amuro Toru discovered this restaurant with outstanding taste. Maybe he came here to work before? After all, Rum has come to work... Speaking of this, Jiang Xia is actually a little curious about the purpose of Rum's personal work.

   As he was thinking, in the box next to him, there was a vague sound of clapping.

  ——Before someone speaks, use this action to remind everyone to draw their attention.

  This hotel has poor sound insulation... Opposite Jiang Xia, this thought flashed through An Shitou's mind.

   Seeing Jiang Xia turning his head to look at the box, he also instinctively glanced along, quickly regaining his attention, and continued to scoop the dessert in front of him.

  …

   At the same time, in the box where two people have been watching.

   At the luxurious round table, Kureno Jiro, the president of Creno Network Club, stood up and cleared his throat:

"Today's parting party was quite abrupt. Anyway, in short, I would like to thank everyone for their hard work over the years. This is the reason why our club is prosperous. I'm sorry to sell the company at this time. Reluctant, but this is also for everyone's good, don't blame me, hahaha. In fact, with your ability, even if you go elsewhere, you can quickly find a suitable position. "

  “…”

  “…”

  “…”

   Several key members who were sitting around stared at him and fell silent.

  ——Selling the company is such a big thing, the president never told them anything, and the news leaked only after the matter was settled. This parting meeting was held full of resentment.

The woman who had spoken to Jiang Xia just now—the manager of the Kreno Network Club—looked around for a week, saw the expression of everyone glaring at the president, and smiled and rounded up: "He probably didn't mean to tell us, he just didn't know how to speak. "The president is not good at explaining things, but he's actually a very good person."

   The other two male employees at the table scoffed at this explanation.

  Toda Junnosuke, the publicity director closest to President Wu Ye, was relatively calm.

   He stood up calmly, took out a large bouquet of flowers from the seat, and handed it to President Wu Ye:

   "Although the separation came suddenly, this time in the company was indeed a beautiful experience - this bouquet of flowers is a little bit of our common heart, please accept it."

   President Wu Ye looked down at the half-person-height bouquet and the group photo of the five of them in the middle of the flower, and was a little moved.

   He hugged the bouquet and sighed: "There have been many twists and turns in the past few years. Thanks to you, the company has been able to have the scale it is today. What a pity...?"

   In the middle of his words, his neck suddenly stabbed, and his breathing became sluggish, his chest suddenly became stuffy, and his smile froze on his face.

   Two seconds later, the president's lips trembled, he closed his eyes, fell to the ground, and gradually stopped moving.

  “…?”

   Several employees approached suspiciously and anxiously, probed for his breath, then turned pale, and after half a second...

"what--!!!"

  …

  Across a wall, Toru Amuro, who had just finished eating and was wiping his mouth gracefully with a napkin: "...?"

   Jiang Xia was startled when she heard the shout. Then, like a serious detective, he got up anxiously.

   was about to rush to the source of the shouting, but at this moment, Amuro Toru suddenly circled in front of him, blocking the way.

   At the same time, Amuro turned his head and whispered to him, "Be a little bit more restrained this time."

   Jiang Xia: "!"

   He was a little surprised. These words seemed to be the words that Jinjiu always said to "Uzuo" - let Wu Zuo kill innocent citizens on the road, so as not to attract unnecessary attention...

   At this moment, this sentence suddenly appeared in Amuro Toru's mouth. Jiang Xia's first reaction was that he had lost his horse unknowingly, and the boss was so terrifying; the second reaction was to suspect that Jinjiu had secretly possessed the boss for unknown reasons...

   But soon, he reacted rationally. The "convergence" that Amuro said should not refer to sharks, but to solve cases - let him not quickly find out the murderer like most of the times before.

   Jiang Xia vaguely understood when he remembered the Rum he had just met by chance.

   But he still had doubts on his face, and then nodded reluctantly.

   Amuro saw this, and only then gave way to the private room.

   Although according to Jiang Xia's current speed of fame, it is only a matter of time before the top management of the organization notices him. But if possible, it is best to prolong this time as much as possible.

And this kind of reminder to "be a little more restrained" will not reveal his own position as an undercover agent - if Jiang Xia is Wu Zuo, then this sentence can be interpreted as telling Jiang Xia not to steal Rum's limelight, lest Rum make other arrangements , was later interrupted by them.

   was blocked by Amuro, and the speed of the two of them heading to the door of the box was a little slower than before.

   At this time, there was already a small group of people watching.

   Jiang Xia persuaded the onlookers to walk away, and then slowly began the routine process of detectives encountering murder cases - checking the situation, calling the police and calling an ambulance, and clearing the scene.

  …

  The kitchen of the restaurant.

  Rum heard the commotion and came out to check.

   Then, at a glance, he saw the box he was watching, and Uzo who was watching.

  ——I pulled a passerby to inquire about it, and learned that just now, someone died suddenly in that box, and the deceased was the president of an Internet company.

  Rum: "..."

   He glanced at the other people in the box.

   In addition to the deceased, there were a total of four people, three men and one woman, who participated in the company's "parting party".

   Among them, there are two people who had contact with Uzo just now.

  ——While ordering food, the woman and Uzo chatted for a long time.

   In addition, when a man seemed to be going to tell her to leave, he briefly had a face-to-face with Uzo, and vaguely showed an emotion similar to that of cringe.

  Rum focused on these two people, frowned slightly, and thoughts flew in his mind.

... Among the few rumors about Uzo in the organization, Uzo has always been known for his expertise in seducing and murdering people quietly, and he can even bury deadly hints in just one face-to-face contact—these The process, described by vodka, is amazing.

  When he first heard these rumors, Rum only thought that it was that stupid big man who was mixing water. Or maybe Uzo just happens to have an event constitution, so he often encounters cases.

   But later, as Uzo's mission files increased; and on the assassination list sent to Uzo, one person after another died precisely...
