Chapter 178 Hui Yuan Ai: Nutrition must be balanced

 Hattori Heizo thought it was not possible.

 So he secretly decided that if there was an opportunity in the future, he would let the two young people have more contact.

Hattori Heiji was stared at silently by his father, and a chill ran down his back.

 He looked at Hattori Heizo warily, always feeling that something bad was about to happen, but he had no evidence...

 …

 Tokyo.

Jiang Xia returned home and was in a good mood sorting out her new shikigami.

 After signing the contract, he released the ghosts as usual and lined up in a long queue, happily wanting to count them again.

 But at this moment, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Jiang Xia paused and reluctantly stood up and opened the door.

They saw Hui Yuan Ai standing at the door holding a box of fruit.

Huiyuan Ai handed the fruit to Jiang Xia and looked at the luggage he placed by the door: "Just came back? Do you want to have dinner at home or come to my place? The doctor seems to have something to see you."

 With that last sentence, of course Jiang Xia chose to go there. He likes these neighbors who have a strong physical constitution

Haiyuan Ai received this answer and nodded happily.

—In her opinion, the food in the lunch box is not as appetizing as the food on the plate. And even if the journey is short, the food will not be as fresh as before if it is stuffed by the lid of the box.

 …

 After eating.

While helping Jiang Xia adjust the new stick, Dr. Ali said enthusiastically: "The day after tomorrow, the 'After the Rain' event will be held. Come and play if you have time."

 “It’s sunny after the rain?”

Jiang Xia was startled for a moment before she connected this "rainy weather" with the bomb "tropical rainbow".

 Then I thought of the Abedo Art Museum: I had the impression that it was about to be demolished by colorful bombs.

"...Okay." Although he probably wouldn't have time to go by then, Jiang Xia agreed first. At worst, the doctor's pigeon will be released the day after tomorrow.

 …

 Blasting and demolition will be done the day after tomorrow.

In the afternoon of the next day, Jiang Xia went to the Abeido Art Museum after dealing with the ladies who went to the office to pick up their cats.

This area used to be a bustling area, but now times have changed and many buildings have been abandoned.

Jiang Xia stopped in front of the old Abeido Art Museum.

 There is a very eye-catching sign on the first floor that reads "Awaiting demolition, no entry allowed." Jiang Xia looked around and found no one. So he decisively crossed it, walked into the building, and headed straight to the fourth floor.

 …

The things in the abandoned art museum have been moved away at this time.

 In the empty building, many small movements became obvious.

When Jiang Xia walked to the fourth floor, she heard vague conversations coming from the bathroom.

 He followed the sound and walked in, stopping at the door of a cubicle.

—The door to the compartment has fallen down. At this time, in the exposed compartment, separated by the closed toilet, there was a person sitting on one side. One hand of each of them was handcuffed, and the handcuffs were looped around the hard pipe on the wall. They were unfortunately trapped in this compartment.

One of the unlucky ones was a strange man with an unshaven beard.

 The other one was Sato Miwako who looked shocked.

"Officer Sato?" Jiang Xia looked surprised, "What are you..."

Miwako Sato: "!"

She was startled and stood up subconsciously, but was pulled by the handcuffs and fell back onto the toilet seat.

 After a moment, she hid her handcuffed hands behind her back, trying to get through: "Why are you here? Haha..."

At this time of embarrassment, when he suddenly saw Jiang Xia... Officer Sato's first reaction was: It's so embarrassing.

"Calm down and tell me if you have any difficulties." Jiang Xia didn't seem to take this matter to heart. He looked upright and said, "I will definitely help."

 Police Officer Sato looked at him for a moment. Looking at his solemn expression, he lowered his head in shame, and finally couldn't help but speak.

"Takagi and I were escorting fugitives, but unexpectedly, this guy ran away." Miwako Sato glanced at the middle-aged man next to her, "He rushed into the building next door and kidnapped a girl—that's right. , you should know, the child named Bumi. She was playing there with a few friends at the time. "

Jiang Xia nodded while listening: Bumi has become a hostage again.

Officer Sato didn't know that his focus had gone astray. Seeing Jiang Xia nod, as if he had gained confidence, he continued: "I chased him all the way and saw him let go of Ayumi and run up this building... He is really capable Run, I chased him all the way to the bathroom and blocked him, but after I put him down and handcuffed him, I discovered..."

Sato Miwako silently covered her face, and shook her other hand. The handcuffs on her wrists were shining with silver: "I just realized that things turned out like this. It was stuck in the water pipe, and my handcuff key was forgotten in the office... "

"Is that so?" Jiang Xia looked down at his watch like a considerate listener and gave him some advice, "Shall I steal it for you? ... Well, I mean take it."

"No, no, no," Officer Sato waved his hands repeatedly, not wanting to be a hateful instigator, "Actually, this is quite good, because this guy said -"

She pointed at the suspect next to her: "In fact, he didn't kill anyone. He ran away in a hurry today to catch up with his daughter's wedding. I don't think... he really seemed to be lying, so I asked Takagi to investigate the specific situation - Restart Once the investigation is reported, the procedure will be too complicated, and I'm afraid we won't be able to make it in time for the wedding. So we are 'trapped' here, and it is a reasonable excuse to kill first and report later."

Speaking of this, Sato Miwako suddenly remembered something. She looked at Jiang Xia and her eyes lit up: "By the way, why don't you go to Takagi to help? With only him and those children, I really can't rest assured. But if you go If so, we should be able to draw a conclusion very quickly!”
