Corpse collector in Conan

Looking over like this, Curacao happened to see a slender man standing behind the spotlight on the second floor. The man put a pistol in his arms, turned around and ran away.

That's the angle the bullet came from. The banquet hall was dark just now, and the only lighting was there. The gunman hid behind the light source, facing the light. At the moment when he fired, he could not be seen by anyone in the hall.

Not to mention the congressman, even if the gunman suddenly shot at her, she would probably be plotted because she could not escape in time.

In other words, if it was her that Uzo wanted to kill tonight... then he only needed to add a casual line in the script: "The gunman was too nervous, the gun went off, and he accidentally killed an innocent waiter."

This dangerous fact flashed through his mind, and a layer of cold sweat silently broke out behind Curacao.

Even members of the organization rarely shoot targets directly on such occasions. This kind of blatant assassination almost touched Curacao’s blind spot.

She suddenly realized that she had underestimated the danger level of Wu Zuo - this guy was different from other cadres in that he did not need to kill people himself. Even his "subordinates" were mostly disposable and could be used and thrown away.

This means that Uzo does not need to abide by the "confidentiality" principle that ordinary cadres have always adhered to. Instead, he can use his innocent identity as a detective to run rampant at the crime scene and easily ignore those subordinates who do not know him at all. Clear relationship.

...The best way to deal with Uzo has never been the so-called testing and adaptation, but to stay away, completely stay away. You must hide somewhere out of reach of this guy, otherwise as long as you appear in front of him, you will no longer be able to control what happens next.

Curacao wiped the cold sweat from his palms, forced himself to calm down, and wanted to evacuate according to the previous route.

But as soon as he turned towards the safe passage, there was a person standing behind him. A gentle voice sounded directly in her ear: "Are you okay?"

"?!" Curacao heard this voice that was engraved in his DNA. He almost threw the camera at Jiang Xia's face, then turned around and ran away... Fortunately, he held back in the end.

She raised her head and saw Jiang Xia, who had not caught up with the murderer, returned to the banquet hall and was looking at her from half a meter away.

The two sides looked at each other, and the young detective asked with concern: "You don't look good. Do you want to call a doctor?"

Curacao: "..." Find a doctor? Shouldn't she normally be advised to go to the hospital? Is it not enough for this guy to kill a congressman, but he also wants to trick a doctor into killing her?

She stared at the person in front of her, wondering for a moment whether she should accompany Uzuo to continue the show of caring for the innocent waiter.

After a while, Curaçao took a deep breath and decided to pretend not to hear the details of Uzo's words and leave here first before saying: "I really don't feel well, then I will go to the doctor first..."

"You want to leave here? The police will be here soon. As an enthusiastic colleague, my suggestion is that you'd better not leave."

With his back turned to the others, Jiang Xia finally restrained his righteous detective look, and showed her an imaginary smile that belonged to Uzuo. He said softly:

"If you dare to appear here, I guess you must have prepared a fairly complete false identity. Even if you are pulled to take a transcript, it will not be exposed. In this case, you are here, why not stay and play your part well? .”

"..." Curacao has given up thinking about why this guy can always see through her disguise at a glance.

After all, he was also a senior cadre. Since his identity had been exposed by the other party, Curacao had no choice but to bite the bullet and maintain the momentum that the second-in-command's confidant should have. Her voice became cold: "A role? You seem to have made a mistake. I'm not your actor."

"No, you are." Jiang Xia bent her eyes and smiled, "You have important clues related to the case. If you abscond with the clues at this time, this carefully crafted false identity will be gone - even if it is It’s not easy for you to create such a verified identity. We are all colleagues. If you have any misunderstandings, you can sit down and talk slowly. Don’t waste precious information. "

Curacao looked at him silently. A high school student who looked sunny and cheerful, with a gentle expression, but standing face to face with him, she felt like there was a cold snake leaning on her ankle, slowly wrapping around her body.

As if in just an instant, the snake's head reached in front of her, and its emotionless eyes looked polite, but in fact stared at her with full of threats, as if waiting for the only answer he wanted to hear.

If she shakes her head and refuses, the hidden fangs will probably pierce into her neck immediately - "I can only work overtime." What kind of overtime is that? Of course, I would write one more script about "the waitress who knew too much was brutally silenced while on the run"!

Even if she managed to escape with her own abilities, it would never be a pleasant experience.

...This is a threat, a naked threat.

Curacao grinded his teeth, assessed the current situation, and thought of the overwhelming police and reporters outside, but in the end he still maintained an elegant smile.

She nodded like a real waiter: "Of course, you are a detective. Before the police arrive, the scene should be under your command."

Uzo nodded with satisfaction.

Curacao suddenly discovered that this scary young cadre was actually quite easy to coax. After agreeing to stay with him, the sharp sense of crisis hanging above his head actually faded away.

Curacao: "..." But we cannot take it lightly. This sudden change in attitude may be just another trap for Uzo.

Just like Ireland, his sense of crisis and intuition are not weak, but while he is washed away by Uzuo's never-ending tide of malice, he gets along well with Jiang Xia, and his impression of Jiang Xia is actually very good... I just said The goodwill she felt after nodding was probably just a signal to confuse her. When she relaxed, she would follow in the footsteps of Ireland.

Curacao watched the surrounding situation vigilantly and secretly.

…

The ambulance arrived quickly, and even a doctor came with the car. President Ishimoto’s arm that was scratched by the bullet quickly received timely treatment.

His female secretary was busy running around, but at this time, there was another secretary who was busy.

——After the shooting incident just now, too many guests escaped from the banquet hall. Most of the people who came to the banquet were dignitaries from Tokyo, and the security guards did not dare to stop them. Therefore, the news of the congressman's death spread quickly.

At this time, the dead congressman's cell phone and the congressman's secretary's cell phone were all ringing non-stop, and the congressman's secretary was answering the phone anxiously.
