Chapter 14161416【Are you also a planner? 】

Jiang Xia: "..." Why does it look like he just came back from cheating Ireland? It's obviously the cadre himself who is having bad luck, and Uzo, who is passing by, is just fulfilling his duty of "maintaining his image as a just detective" and conveniently saves Just a patrolman who almost got his head shot...

 The coffee in this shop is of very good quality.

Jiang Xia quickly put those troubles behind her, drank slowly, and enjoyed the good time in the moment.

 Halfway through the drink, I suddenly felt something was wrong: it seemed to be night time.

He looked at the remaining half cup of refreshing coffee, hesitated for a moment, and simply continued drinking: he had drank it all, and there was actually no difference between half a cup and a full cup. And thinking about it carefully, for him, having insomnia at night is not a bad thing. The worst he can do is go out for a few rounds and see if there are any cases that call the fake detective.

Just as I was thinking about it, a siren suddenly sounded from the street through the window.

Jiang Xia turned to look out the window and saw a police car roaring towards her and stopping at the red light intersection next to the coffee shop.

Looking at its direction, it seems to be going to the place where someone fell just now.

Through the half-open window, Jiang Xia saw a few familiar people in the car at a glance: Mao Lilan and Conan were sitting in the back, and Maori Kogoro was in the passenger seat.

The driver’s seat is Miwako Sato, a haggard policewoman who works overtime.

Jiang Xia's eyes lit up, and when the four of them were stopped by the red light, he ran out of the cafe and went straight to them - when he ordered, he had already asked for early settlement. Now it seems that this is indeed a good habit that detectives should have. .

 …

Mao Lilan was sitting in the car, originally a little anxious.

At this moment, she suddenly heard the wind chime on the door of a shop next to the small street ringing.

Looking around randomly, she saw the person running out clearly, and she was suddenly startled: "Jiang Xia?"

"Yeah." Jiang Xia appeared next to the police car in the blink of an eye. He had never seen him move so fast even if he was running for his life. He looked around the environment and quietly reached out to pull the car door, "What happened?"

Officer Sato saw him rubbing the car so naturally, his eyes twitched, and he shouted in a low voice: "This is at the intersection!"

 …But there are no cars around, and there seems to be no surveillance here. Moreover, Jiang Xia looked like she was determined to get in the car, and it seemed difficult to persuade him to leave. It might be even more dangerous if he continues to stay on the road.

 After a brief hesitation, Officer Sato silently unlocked the car door. After all, if there is another person following outside, it will affect her racing speed later.

Jiang Xia used his experience of rubbing cars for a long time and got into the car as he wished.

 After he sat firmly, he turned around and closed the door. His movements were silky smooth and didn't even take a second.

 Just as the red light ended, the police car started again.

Looking through the rearview mirror, Officer Sato cast a disapproving look and seemed to be planning to send him to the traffic police for education later.

 In the back seat, Conan, who skateboards along motor lanes, non-motor lanes, walls and bus bodies all year round, doesn’t have much objection to this kind of hitchhiking behavior.

 He moved inside to make room for Jiang Xia, his face looked a little solemn.   …

The vehicle set off again. Jiang Xia looked at a few acquaintances next to him and asked the question again: "What happened?"

The other people were not surprised that Jiang Xia suddenly appeared from the roadside coffee shop. After all, Jiang Xia often went to catch cats in various places, and from time to time he went to find clients from all walks of life with various personalities, and occasionally helped his exploiter. The boss of a high school student works part-time, and he also likes to go racing in the middle of the night... It doesn't seem strange for him to appear in any corner of Tokyo at any time.

Mouri Kogoro didn’t think too much. When Jiang Xia asked, he angrily repeated what happened just now:

"I won a fortune yesterday betting on horse racing. There happened to be a new store opening in the food street, so I took Xiaolan and Conan there to have a taste. Speaking of which, although the store's consumption is high, their beer tastes delicious. It’s really a masterpiece, I’ll take you with me when I have time... Oh, no, you can’t appreciate it yet.”

Jiang Xia: "..." Huh, naive. Who says he can't appreciate it. Leave the name of the store, and tomorrow he will... ask the puppet to buy it back.

Mao Lilan poked Mao Li Kogoro: "Dad, tell the important point!"

Mouri Kogoro came back to his senses, knocked his drunken head, and said seriously: "We were eating in that open-air restaurant, and suddenly the clerk came over with a phone and said that someone called the store and asked for help. Me, let me transfer."

 …

At that time, Kogoro Mouri had just picked up the phone when he heard a voice that wanted to beat him: "Ex-policeman, long time no see - I heard that you have resigned to become a detective?"

Hearing this tone and title, Mouri Kogoro had a vague premonition:

After he resigned, he was treated as a "former policeman". Except for his former colleagues, the rest were basically looking for trouble - after all, the police industry is the natural enemy of criminals, and those who were sent to prison by them were not concerned. When they are released in a few years, some will turn over a new leaf, while others just want revenge.

Mouri Kogoro frowned: "Who are you?"

“Hmph, it’s me who forgets things so much.” The tone of the person on the other end of the phone became cold and he announced his name, “Reiji Himuro.”

This surname is not too common.

Mouri Kogoro recalled for a moment and suddenly had an impression: "That bank robber I sent in? You came out so soon?"

"That's right." Although Mouri Kogoro recognized him successfully, the content mentioned in his words was obviously not pleasant.

Himuro Reiji smiled ugly: "You are so laid-back. Others live in fear because of you, but you still have the heart to take the children out to enjoy the meal - haha, by the way, you probably don't know yet, there is a Someone is going to die because of you."

As he spoke, he stood in the building opposite the restaurant, and waved condescendingly towards Kogoro Mori through the window.

 While Mouri Kogoro and the others had finished paying the bill and rushed over to arrest them, Himuro Reiji did not leave either.

 …

In the police car, Kogoro Mouri punched his thigh angrily while recalling: "I asked him what he meant, but he just said mysteriously, 'It's too late now'. What else can I do to you?" Live with guilt all your life’…”

As he spoke, he sighed, a little tired: "Actually, I hope this is just a joke, but according to my experience, the cruel words uttered by such criminals with criminal records are 80% true.

“So I tried to call the police, and then I learned that at the time Himuro called me, someone had actually died—the person had fallen from an abandoned building and died.”
