Conan’s Corpse Picker

But this time, among the people attending the food festival, there were many female bosses who were originally only responsible for investing and collecting money, and rarely participated in the catering business. Compared with the food festival, this was more like a social banquet.

Rum couldn't help but touch his head where the hairline was gradually receding, feeling that letting Curacao leave just now was a wrong decision.

However, after taking a closer look, he saw that there were many serious food trucks among them, so he felt relieved and continued to the food court.

At the same time, I couldn't help but feel even more satisfied: "This appeal is really wonderful. Obviously Wu Zuocai is only a high school student, but he has already reached this level. When he grows up a little longer, he can fully enter the society and become an adult who can concentrate on business. detective……"

The greater the ability of subordinates, the easier it is to lead. Rum's mood skyrocketed.

"Of course, it is undeniable that good seeds will also come with certain risks. But for me, these are all controllable."

…

When Rum rushed to the food court.

On the other side, another person whom he had just mentioned had already arrived at the square in an old and dilapidated dining car.

Toru Amuro observed the situation in the square, found a perfect location that was neither inconspicuous nor suspiciously remote, and where he could escape at any time, and stopped the car.

After parking, he packed his things and looked out of the car.

There were many police cars parked in the square, and some police officers were busy at the podium.

Toru Amuro was not surprised by this scene. He had heard of this preaching for a long time.

But what shocked him was that the person making the announcement to the police was actually not a police officer, but his terrifying employee who was no longer calm wherever he went.

Toru Amuro: "..." Who made such a mindless decision?

But then I thought about it, why can't I invite Jiang Xia? Is it because of the incident that has no scientific basis?

While Toru Amuro expressed his understanding of the employee's experience, he also wanted to follow his instinct and turn around and leave.

But as soon as they arrived at the square, the boss jumped out of the car happily and squeezed to the front to listen to the lecture. Now Toru Amuro is in charge of all the dining carts - he can't just leave the cart here, the boss here too, and run away by himself.

That would be too unprofessional, and the female boss has a wide network of contacts and likes to get together with other ladies to chat and gossip. Many of her friends are running stores, so she occasionally talks about the daily life in the store - -If he really does that, if he passes it on to others, it will only ruin his reputation as a part-time worker.

"Why is it necessary to hide from your own employees?" Toru Amuro finally took a deep breath and stayed in the dining car calmly, "Jiang Xia is not a scourge. I can't always link him to the case without any basis. ."

He tried to use some more practical things to convince himself to stay here: "And now, this food fair looks no different from a banquet. These are just some of the permanent staff who come to open the food truck. There will definitely be more in the future." Guests arriving, and passers-by simply attracted by the excitement. This would be a perfect place to obtain information, and as an intelligence agent, I can't let it go."

"I set up the stall first, and then I started chatting with the person closest to me. Then I asked him to look after the food truck for me, so that I could move around freely."

With this thought in mind, after setting up the table and chairs, Toru Amuro got out of the car.

Just then, a food truck parked next to him.

Toru Amuro raised a hearty smile and greeted him enthusiastically, intending to help the new guy get familiar with the venue and sell him a favor.

The plan was good, but when he saw the "new guy" clearly, Amuro Toru's steps froze, and his expression barely remained tense.

...Why does this person look so familiar?

...Rum? !

Toru Amuro barely maintained a calm heart, as if a bombshell had been dropped and exploded - although he had just thought that he might meet some useful people at this "banquet", but who knows? The idea came true when I turned around.

And the person I met... was so important.

Toru Amuro couldn't help but began to regret: If he had known that Jiang Xia's incident could attract such things, he should have set up a dragnet here before coming, and then arrested the second-in-command in one fell swoop.

...Unfortunately, it's too late now.

There were too many innocent citizens around this square, and it was impossible to evacuate them without alerting Rum. However, if they are not evacuated, the arrest process may cause irreparable tragic consequences.

And if you arrest someone while Rum is away, the success rate will be very low, but you will expose yourself.

In just one step, the thought of an ordinary person taking a hundred steps flashed through Amuro Toru's mind. In the end, he suppressed all thoughts and showed only a hint of surprise as if he had met by chance: "Mr. Wakita? Are you also here to participate in this event?"

Wakada Kanori, this is the pseudonym that Rum often uses when he is out and about.

Rum looked up, and the black band around his left eye made him look a little more shrewd and sinister. He quickly grinned like a philistine boss: "Oh, isn't this the working boy who came to my store to help before? You went to help another store again? It's really in demand."

Toru Amuro could only show the same smile as when meeting an acquaintance, and said hello in a normal manner, but his heart was so full that he was about to burst into flames.

Toru Amuro: "..." Speaking of which, why does Rum appear here? Are you targeting the high-ranking police official who will appear briefly in the safety lecture as a guest? Or is there someone important here? Or does the organization have some sinister plans nearby?

So he, like Curacao just now, tried to ask: "Is there anything I can do to help?"

But Lang Mu waved his hand to him without revealing any flaws, and smiled generously: "You are not my employee today, how can I exploit the helpers invited by others? Don't worry, I am also an old chef, and there is no one in the gourmet party I have attended. There are tens of hundreds, and I’m more familiar with things here than you are.”

Toru Amuro: "..."

His immediate boss had said so, so he could only stop nagging, silently turned around, and continued to pack up his dining car.

——This time I can’t leave at all.

But with such important information nearby, even if someone else asked him, he would not leave at this moment.

As Toru Amuro wiped the table skillfully, his eyes lit up with fighting spirit.

…

This pair of superiors and subordinates had such the same idea of ​​​​choosing the location of the food truck that they happened to be right next to each other.

The location is not inconspicuous, and their dining car is also quite low-key, so after waiting for a while, no customers came.

On the contrary, after the lecture ended and the food party officially started, Amuro Toru's temporary female boss led Jiang Xia and happily walked over here. (End of chapter)
