Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 1967 1967 [The younger brother takes office]

“In addition, there is one more thing.” Uzo’s voice recalled Maya Hashimoto’s divergent thinking, “I want to build a theater under the sea, and the location has been selected. All I have to do is implement it.”

He moved his fingers and sent the relevant information to Maya Hashimoto: "Go and do this."

—Jiang Xia still remembers the theater on the isolated island not long ago, and the vague aura of ghosts in the theater.

Since the ghost fetus is suspected to be the earthbound spirit in the theater, it is better to try moving the entire theater closer, and then slowly study the method of abducting it. Otherwise, you cannot run to a deserted island every day.

As for the location in Tokyo, Jiang Xia has also thought about it - the previous Crystal Restaurant was very good. Although part of it was blown up by the bartender who lost his sense of taste, the foundation is still there, and it will be better to rebuild it than himself. Filling a building is much simpler.

Moreover, both the theater and the Crystal Restaurant are remnants of murders, and the price is affordable. You don’t need to use the gold obtained from digging the boss’s old house. The usual bonuses are enough. The organization is quite generous in distributing money. .

Maya Hashimoto: "...Okay."

Although the news that "Uzo is going to open a theater" is horrifying, compared to the previous mission, Hashimoto Maya instantly felt down-to-earth - this is what normal subordinates should do.

Jiang Xia looked at him breathing a sigh of relief, and his eyes fell on Maya Hashimoto's face: without looking around the eyes, this subordinate did look like Shuichi Akai.

Jiang Xia: "..." I have iced black tea, and also come with fried eggs and sweet water. The taste of the meal is getting richer and richer. I don't know when Shuichi Akai, this all-powerful murderous aura, will be able to join the team.

Although Akai Shuichi is cautious, he is not the kind of person who stands still for the sake of safety. When necessary, he does not lack the spirit of adventure.

“There is such a clear opportunity for Subaru Okiya. Even if he takes some risks, the FBI will definitely find a way to contact him and then get in touch with me..."

I don’t know if Akai Shuichi will have a lot of random thoughts and increase production when he sees Hashimoto Maya’s face that looks like him when he puts on Subaru Okiya’s disguise in the future.

 It’s really exciting.

Across the way, Maya Hashimoto was looking down at the mail, but suddenly felt a chill.

He was startled and raised his head alertly, and saw Wu Zuo looking at him thoughtfully. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he seemed to be in a good mood.

"Work hard." The two sides looked at each other, and Uzo showed a pleasant smile that made people's scalp numb. "I will introduce you to a colleague in a while. I believe you will get along very well."

Maya Hashimoto: "..." No need, I just want to be a lone ranger under the command of the demons, and stay as far away from those demons who have contaminated your aura as possible!

He originally wanted to say this, but as he turned around, what he finally said was a dry sentence: "Okay, I will work hard."

 …

Uzo dropped a bunch of tasks and left, letting Maya Hashimoto drink whatever he wanted, and the account was all put in his name.

That’s what he said, but Maya Hashimoto didn’t want to stay in the box where Uzo stayed. He sat anxiously in the room for a while, thinking that it would be enough time for Uzo to go far. He immediately got up and planned to leave.

Before leaving, Maya Hashimoto thought about it and ordered another glass of wine - it was customary for the boss to help his subordinates pay the bill. If he left without drinking anything, if Uzo saw it and thought he had a problem with him, things would be in trouble. .

While waiting, Maya Hashimoto quietly glanced at the records and discovered that Uzo had also brought some drinks outside just now, and might have gone to catch up with someone else.

 The name he left on the account book was actually "Kurosawa".

Maya Hashimoto: "..." Dare to sign his name on the account book openly. This should not be Uzo's real name.

 Speaking of which, this last name...

Maya Hashimoto's expression changed slightly, and she suddenly thought of her unlucky temporary accomplice, and couldn't help but mutter in her heart: "Is this the real cause of Kurosawa's death? Even under a pseudonym, Uzo doesn't want to bump into others... How arbitrary. Terrible thugs."

"But the good news is that after encountering Uzo, I not only survived, but also became his subordinate. As long as I complete the work seriously, I don't have to worry."

Maya Hashimoto breathed a sigh of relief, but when she came back to her senses, she couldn't help but feel depressed: I actually succumbed to the enemy and gained life through this way of surrender. Is that good? This is not good.

"But if you think about it carefully, Uzo and I actually don't have any grudges. Especially now that I am no longer Mr. Ireland's subordinate, there is no reason to keep going against Uzo." Maya Hashimoto secretly adjusted her mentality, "Not too much I thought, this is just an ordinary job transfer. Who wouldn’t change jobs several times in a person’s life? Normal, this is normal.”

The clerk quickly helped him pack the wine, and Maya Hashimoto walked out of the bar carrying it.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Ireland seems to have said that he met Usa in a bar when he was in London." Maya Hashimoto recalled that she had always thought that Toriyama Naoko was Usa's, and suddenly she felt that at that time I am so self-deceiving and so stupid.

"No wonder Mr. Ireland thinks that the curly man in black is Uzo, not the smoke bomb released by Uzo. Now that we have talked face to face, I finally understand - this terrible sense of oppression, this game-oriented attitude, this kind of He is polite on the outside, but he doesn’t treat people as human beings on the inside... There is no one else but Uzo who is such a scumbag!"

Although she just muttered a few words in her heart and did not make a sound, after a while, Maya Hashimoto couldn't help but look around guiltily, especially paying special attention to the top of her head, worried that the new boss could really read minds. Then he smashed something down, giving him an unforgettable punishment.

Maya Hashimoto: "..." Stop thinking about this. It's too dangerous. Think of something else.

“I don’t know who the new colleague is going to be introduced to me. I hope he can be easier to get along with, or at least not as keen on persecuting his colleagues as Uzo.”

Maya Hashimoto sorted out what to do next: "In addition, how should I get close to Jiang Xia? Although Uzuo said that as long as there is no evidence, it doesn't matter if he is exposed, but Jiang Xia is also scary sometimes! The kind of person who seems to understand everything. eyes...

"No, I still have to try my best to avoid being exposed. I have to listen to Uzo's words, but if I accept them in full and obey them, I'm afraid I'm not far away from 'resigning' or 'dying on the job.'"

"Why don't you go to the detective agency in Jiangxia and pretend that I have a commission?" Maya Hashimoto nodded inwardly, "This is a good idea. First, check around Jiangxia to see if there is an opportunity to strike up a conversation. If not, I will go directly to his office.”
