Chapter 599 Unqualified (Anti-theft added)

the other side.

In the dark mountain forest, the little Beetle turned on its pale headlights and went down the winding mountain road.

Nearly ten minutes later, we finally arrived near the suspension bridge.

 Qianjian Granny stopped the car and opened the door.

After half of her body got out of the car, she seemed to feel a little cold, so she wrapped herself in a scarf and shrank back.

The other three glanced at her but said nothing. They got out of the car and went to the suspension bridge to check out the situation.

I saw a strong wooden bridge, with signs of being blasted and burned at both ends, and the middle part completely fell into the bottomless ravine below.

"Jiang Xia" lowered his head to observe for a moment, stared at the bridge intently, and said to the car: "Grandma Qianjian, please change to low beam, so you can't see your feet clearly."

As he spoke, he knocked on the handrail and judged the distance between the two sides of the canyon: just as he had thought before, combined with the wind blowing this way, it was not easy to use a hang glider to float over.

Toru Amuro was looking at the road across the bridge, trying to see if there were any public security men poking their heads.

Jiang Xia followed Toru Amuro and looked in that direction—if there were police officers there and they saw a suspicious man in black next to Toru Amuro, they would not take the initiative to poke their heads in.

In this case, a group of people can naturally stay in the annex for a while, waiting for the drama detectives to finish their drama and lose their murderous aura before leaving here.

 Behind the three people, the car lights changed.

At the moment when the light beam changed from high beam to low beam, the vehicle suddenly exploded with a "boom".

—The remaining car also exploded and burst into flames.

The three people on the bridge turned around quickly and looked in through the front window of the car, only to see a blaze of fire.

The handbrake of the vehicle failed, and the broken car was pushed by the blast wave, slid down the slope, and instantly ran over in front of the three people.

None of the three people tried to stop him, but instinctively moved away.

The car followed the road they vacated and plunged into the cliff.

Jiang Xia raised her hand to extinguish the small flames on her body: "..."

I always feel that according to this scene, if I rush over and shout "Mother-in-law!", the scene will be considered complete.

 …However, this is not quite in line with Uzo’s character. Forget it.

Just as he was thinking about it, "Jiang Xia" next to him seemed to have come back to his senses.

He was surprised and chased to the broken bridge, looked under the bridge, and shouted in vain and painfully: "Qianjian Granny—!"

 Jiangxia: “…”

He stared at "his" back faintly: When he saw a vehicle exploding at close range, shouldn't he consider a reasonable hang-up here?

...However, according to Jiang Xia's observation, in the occasional relevant reports, reporters, perhaps out of consideration for "protecting the privacy of underage detectives", did not describe in detail his specific state when he hung up, and only said "the speed of solving the case" will be significantly affected."

Kidd may have been misled by this description, thinking that Jiang Xia would just lose his cool and slow down in solving crimes after encountering a vehicle explosion.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia sighed inwardly—although Kidd would conduct detailed investigations on disguised targets most of the time. But occasionally, this phantom thief would be lazy, and even made a major mistake of "while pretending to be a tomboy, he mistakenly thought the other person was a man, so he acted as a man."

This time, Kidd suddenly wanted to replace "Jiang Xia", probably more out of interest. Breakthroughs are inevitable.

And thinking on the bright side, this is actually more convenient - if Kidd really starts to hang up dedicatedly, this bridge is so far away from the Dusk Annex, and he and Toru Amuro will have to find a way to get people back... It's better to be like this now. The fire and the car quickly disappeared at the bottom of the cliff.

 The sound of burning fire and the sound of materials cracking are all kept away.

Jiang Xia looked away from "Jiang Xia" and secretly glanced at Toru Amuro.

 Seeing the way the boss looked at "Jiang Xia", it turned out that something was completely wrong.

After staring at "Jiang Xia" twice, Amuro Toru thought of something, turned around, and gave Zhen Jiang Xia a complicated look.

At the same time, Kidd also finished playing the "painful" part he added. After turning around, he also looked at "Kurosawa" secretly and warily.

—They all saw the flaw that Qianjian’s mother-in-law had revealed before, and realized that this old lady was probably the “organizer” who planned everything tonight.

 And Kurosawa is the "companion" who appears with her.

Jiang Xia thought of the identity of the "companion of Qianjian descendants" whom she had encountered, and understood the reactions of the two people.

As if he didn't see anything, he said in a relaxed tone: "Let's go back and tell everyone about the situation here. Fortunately, it's not too far from the annex, and it doesn't take long to walk back along the road... I didn't expect it to show up so soon. Another victim."

　　　…”

Although the atmosphere between the three people was a bit strange, they finally set foot on the return journey together, walking farther and farther along the mountain road.

 …

 Half a while.

  It seems that they are sure that they are completely far away and will not kill another carbine.

Beside the bridge, the weeds half as tall as a man suddenly moved, and an old woman with a stooped figure walked out of them.

Senjian Shidai, who was "sitting in a car and being blown up by a car", looked at the direction the three people left, then turned to look at the broken bridge with small flames, shook his head, put his hands behind his back, and slowly walked towards the dusk to say goodbye. direction of the pavilion.

—Senjian Yoyo was the "host" who pretended to be Kidd, summoned the detectives, and killed the gourmet detectives.

The **** story she told in the restaurant just now as the "host" was half true and half false.

—Forty years ago, a massacre did occur in the annex, but in fact, it did not occur during Karasuma’s memorial service, but when Karasuma Renye was still alive.

At that time, Karasuma discovered that there was a considerable treasure hidden in this family-herited dusk villa, so he wanted to ask someone to help him find it.

 Chienjian’s mother-in-law’s father is an archaeologist. At that time, Senjian's father and a group of scholars were invited by Karasuma Renya to hunt for treasures in this annex.

 Chianjian and her mother were initially pleasantly surprised by the generous rewards that Qianjian’s father sent back one after another.

However, the good times did not last long. Half a year later, Qianjian’s father lost contact.

The last letter he sent home had countless small holes pricked with needles. It was the code left by Qianjian's father, describing the atrocities that happened in the annex:

Karasuma Renye felt that his death was imminent, and the scholars he invited only ate money and found no treasure at all. In the end, the ruthless Karasuma killed them one by one in the annex, hoping that those who had not yet been killed would be able to unleash their treasure-hunting potential with their blood.

If someone could discover the truth hidden in the letter early, they might have a chance to take someone there and capture Renya Karasuma, who had not left at that time, or at least rescue the survivors.

Unfortunately, by the time Qianjian’s mother-in-law deciphered the truth hidden in the family letter, more than twenty years had passed since the tragedy.
