Chapter 918 Dirty Detective plus update to the leader [Yuegu City]

Haihara Ai was feeling a little emotional when a red dress suddenly flashed across her eyes.

She raised her head and saw Suzuki Sonoko, who was wearing a rare backless evening dress, walking over from nowhere.

Conan is hiding next to Jiang Xia, taking refuge from three naughty kids from the young detective team who are worrying him.

At this time, when he looked up and saw Suzuki Sonoko, he was startled for a moment, and his eyes fell on the other person's clothes: "Do you also have the experience badge?"

"Huh? What do you mean?" Suzuki Sonoko glanced down at the badge on her chest and flicked it nonchalantly, "The Suzuki Foundation sponsored this game, and the organizer sent one to my home - I was the only one who was old enough to experience it, so the family gave it to me.”

　　The Young Detective Team originally stayed far away.

At this time, attracted by this extremely rare badge that symbolizes "qualification for holographic game experience", they couldn't help but get closer and tried to hint: "It's great, I really want to play 'Cocoon'."

 Hunted to wait for Suzuki Sonoko to answer.

Beside him, a childish sneer suddenly came in: "That's not okay—not everyone is worthy of experiencing this game."

Jiang Xia took a sip of grape juice, looked around in boredom, and saw several children of seven or eight years old.

 —It is the second generation who were recognized by Moori Kogoro just now.

Even in this banquet hall where celebrities gather, their family background is considered prominent.

 …

The young second-generation students wore experience badges on their chests and were bathed in the envious eyes of the Junior Detective Team. They couldn't help but feel proud: "A person's status and the height he can reach have been decided since birth - whether you are worthy of it or not." Don’t think about getting this badge, just wipe your saliva and watch from the side.”

This is something that deserves a beating.

While the Young Detective Team was angry, the label "Bad Boys!" instinctively flashed through their minds. The three of them slapped it on the foreheads of the children opposite. Then he looked at Jiang Xia expectantly.

Several second-generation men followed the young detective team's eyes for help, and their eyes also fell on Jiang Xia.

I thought that these civilian children wanted Jiang Xia, the "famous detective", to support the show.

The second generation suddenly sneered with disdain: "Don't you think that he is the kind of person who has 'changed his background through his own efforts'? What about a detective? It just sounds glamorous, but in fact, they are still You can only come into contact with those shady and shady people, take over dirty jobs from those people, and earn dirty money..."

As they were talking, several shadows suddenly fell behind them.

 The second generations were startled and turned back menacingly.

At first I thought it was another commoner who didn't pay attention and came to look for trouble.

However, before they began to curse, they suddenly saw the person behind them clearly, and their faces suddenly turned pale:

"…mom?"

"…elder sister?"

 “Aunt?!”

Jiang Xia held the juice cup and looked at the wives of clients who often came to see cats, and their eerie eyes: "..."

 …

  One minute later.

"…sorry."

Several children, with ears that were as swollen and shiny as light bulbs, with tears in their eyes, bowed humiliatingly towards the hateful civilian detective and apologized to him.

The ladies stood nearby, covering their lips elegantly and smiling: "I'm really sorry, I usually spoil them too much..."

Just now, when they saw their children gathered around Jiang Xia, their eyes lit up and they thought they could come over and have a chat.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they got closer, they heard the naughty child scolding them and Jiang Xia.

 …Why can’t the client come to the forefront?

 Why is it so dirty to find a cat?

 Deserve a beating! "It's okay." Jiang Xiazheng regretted that the guardians would not risk murder.

 At this moment, the mobile phone on his body suddenly vibrated.

“…” Judging from the location, it seems to be the organization’s mobile phone.

"Excuse me." Jiang Xia left more space for the ladies and naughty children, then turned and walked to the bathroom.

 …

 Arrived in a deserted corridor.

Jiang Xia took out her phone and glanced down.

 There is an email from Gin inside:

 [All the helpers you need are here]

Attached are some photos.

 —These are some of the "elites" selected by Gin to come to help at Jiang Xia's request.

　　Although Gin, Belmode and Vodka will also participate in this operation, it is not convenient for them to appear in public.

 So now, the three of them are waiting in the car on the next street as Jiang Xia said.

 These selected "elites" have already blended into the venue.

 …

Jiang Xia swiped the screen to view the attachments.

I quickly matched the numbers of the men in black in the photo with the passers-by I just happened to see.

Then I realized indifferently that the quality of these people was not very good.

—There is not a single person with murderous intent, just a few ordinary people who look a little fiercer.

  “…” is really stingy. Can't we send a few more gins or those of Belmod's level?

Jiang Xia lamented for a while about the number of talents in the organization.

 Then ruthlessly shut out these "elites":

　　[The quality is average, let them wait outside. When the operation begins, I will send them directly to the control room - in the meantime, everyone will leave the ballroom. Don't follow me, don't disturb me. ]

 —If you don’t have murderous intent, why don’t you take part in some action? Go out and stay.

 After all, Haihara Ai was still present at the venue. Jiang Xia thought, what if some man in black happened to catch the fake child's hair when he was passing by Haiyuan Ai while he was playing a holographic game later, and then those burgundy hair were seen by Gin again...

There may be a sudden explosion party here, which will cause headaches.

 …

at the same time.

 On a street with a straight line distance of nearly one thousand meters.

Ginjiu looked at Jiang Xia's reply email. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was not quite right.

—Uzo’s words actually seemed like he was clearing the place.

“…” Could it be that he wanted to break up the organization and run amok inside alone? Thinking about it carefully, the glamorous celebrities in the banquet hall seemed to be in line with Uzo’s taste in picking prey.

Thinking of this, Gin's eyes narrowed slightly and he became alert, but did not immediately reply "yes".

Rather, ask cautiously:

[What do you want to do? ]

 …

After a while, the phone vibrated and Uzo’s reply came:

Those few people staying here will only arouse the target's vigilance. People's sixth sense can sometimes be very accurate - occasional eye contact, the direction of other people's attention, repeated unfamiliar faces... may cause changes in his mentality. ]

　　[Those people you found are not up to standard in tracking. Rather than letting them stay and cause trouble, it would be safer to stay outside and wait - I am not familiar with the target in the first place and we just met today. The plan is risky, and clearing the site is just to reduce the difficulty of your mission]

  Gin: “…”

 …Looking at it this way, it does make some sense.
