Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 1773 1772 [You are entangled by Uzo]

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

  The bullet came from that angle. The banquet hall was pitch black just now, and the only light was there. The gunman hid behind the light source, against the light, and the moment he shot, he could not be seen by anyone in the hall.

  Let’s not talk about congressmen, even if the gunman suddenly shot at her, she might be plotted against because she couldn’t dodge in time.

   That is to say, if Uzo wanted to kill her tonight...then he only needs to add a fluffy line "The gunman was too nervous, the gun went off and killed an innocent waiter by mistake" in the script.

  This dangerous fact flashed through his mind, and a layer of cold sweat silently broke out on Curacao's back.

  Even members of the organization rarely directly shoot the target on this occasion. This overly blatant assassination almost touched Curacao's blind spot.

  She suddenly found that she still underestimated the danger of Uzo—this guy is different from other cadres, he doesn't need to kill people by himself at all, and even the "subordinates" are mostly disposable, and can be thrown away as needed.

This means that Wu Zuo doesn't need to abide by the "secrecy" principle that ordinary cadres have always followed. Instead, he can use his innocent identity as a detective to run amok at the scene of the crime, and easily leave behind those subordinates who don't know him at all. Clear the relationship.

  ... The best way to deal with Uzo has never been the so-called temptation and adaptation, but to stay away, completely away. You must hide in a place that this guy cannot touch, otherwise as long as you appear in front of him, what happens next will no longer be under your control.

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

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

   "?!" Hearing the voice engraved into DNA, Curacao almost instinctively smashed the camera on Jiang Xia's face, then turned around and ran... Fortunately, he held back in the end.

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

  Looking at each other, the young detective said with concern: "You don't look very good, do you want to find a doctor?"

   Curacao: "..." Get a doctor? Shouldn't it be normal to advise her to go to the hospital? Is it not enough for this guy to kill a congressman, and he wants to trick a doctor from her to kill him?

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

   After a while, Curacao took a deep breath, decided to pretend not to hear the details in Wu Zuo's words, and left here before saying: "It's really uncomfortable, then I'll go to the doctor first..."

   "You want to leave here? The police are coming soon. As an enthusiastic colleague, my suggestion is that you better not leave."

  With his back turned to other people, Jiang Xia finally restrained his righteous detective look, and showed her a smile that belonged to Uzo, and he said softly:

"Dare to appear here, I guess you must have prepared a fairly complete false identity, even if you are pulled to make a record, it will not be exposed - in this case, it's all here, why don't you stay and play your part well. "

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

  Anyway, he is also a senior cadre. Since his identity has been exposed by the other party, Curacao had no choice but to bite the bullet and show off the momentum that a second-in-command confidant should have. Her voice became cold: "Actor? You seem to have made a mistake. I'm not your actor."

"No, you are." Jiang Xia bent his 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 you , It is not easy to create such an verified identity. We are all colleagues, if there is any misunderstanding, we can sit down and chat slowly, so as not to waste precious information."

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

  As if in an instant, the snake's head poked in front of her, those emotionless eyes looked polite, but actually stared at her threateningly, as if waiting for the only answer he wanted to hear.

  If she shakes her head and refuses, her hidden fangs will plunge into her neck immediately—"I can only work overtime", what kind of overtime? Of course it is to write an extra script of "the waitress who knew too much was killed on the way to escape"!

  Even if she relied on her own ability to escape with difficulty, it would never be a pleasant experience.

  …This is a threat, a naked threat.

  Curaçao gritted his teeth, weighed the current situation, and remembered the overwhelming police and reporters outside, but still maintained an elegant smile.

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

   Uzo nodded in satisfaction.

  Curaçao suddenly found that this terrifying young cadre was quite easy to coax. After agreeing to stay by his side, the sharp sense of crisis hanging over his head actually faded away.

  Curaçao: "..." But don't take it lightly, this sudden change of attitude may just be another trap for Uzo.

Just like Ireland, his sense of crisis and intuition are not weak either, but while being washed away by Uzuo's never-ending malice, he gets along with Jiang Xia happily, and his impression of Jiang Xia is actually quite good... I nodded just now The kindness she felt afterwards was probably just a signal to confuse her. When she relaxed, she would follow in the footsteps of Ireland.

   Curacao secretly observed the surrounding situation vigilantly.

  …

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

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

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

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