Conan’s Corpse Picker

Uzuo was surprisingly easy to talk to, and he wasn't even angry when he heard this not-so-honest explanation.

Instead, he nodded as if he had the same feeling: "Indeed, in fact, I have always felt that Ireland and I are very compatible and should have become friends, but he seems to have a little misunderstanding of me."

Maya Hashimoto: "?"

I was just talking nonsense, but why did you follow the nonsense!

Uzo thought of something again: "But there is one thing you said wrong. Although I am not interested in the news about Ireland, even if you tell me his intelligence, it cannot be called 'betraying' - you are now my subordinate." .”

"..." Maya Hashimoto broke into a cold sweat: Impossible. Even though Naoko Tormaru had revealed this news before, could her confidants be mobilized at will?

Although Mr. Ireland has indeed been offending people everywhere for the Pisco incident, not doing his job well, and almost leaking the secret, it seems normal for senior officials to wear small shoes...

But in short, this is not a reason to mobilize your confidants!

Maya Hashimoto suddenly thought of a possibility, and his eyes gradually became firm: Uzo must be trying to find a breakthrough from himself, and use these words to influence him and make him take the initiative to surrender to the enemy. Therefore, he must be firm in his heart and cannot...

Just as I was thinking about it, my phone buzzed and an email came in.

Maya Hashimoto was agitated and had a bad feeling in her heart.

Seeing that he was stiff and motionless, Uzuo nodded to him: "Open it and take a look. There might be something important."

"..."

Maya Hashimoto stiffly took out her phone, opened the screen stiffly, and took a stiff look.

The sender is Curacao.

[Although you probably already know this, I still need to tell you - the position has been transferred, and you are now Uzo's subordinate.

[Please perform your basic duties as a subordinate, obey the instructions of your superiors, be a loyal and attentive person, and do not have any contact with me in the future. ]

Maya Hashimoto: "???"

This woman is indeed in cahoots with Uzo! No matter where she hides these days, Uzuo will find her. Is it because she is secretly informing Uzuo?

For a moment, Maya Hashimoto felt that all the trees and plants were soldiers, and the whole world was an enemy.

Originally, Mr. Ireland, the vanguard elite who resisted Uzo, was united with him, but now that this inexplicable job transfer has been made, Mr. Ireland's vigilance... let alone a united front, maybe he would be worried about his confidant leaking the secrets. , find an opportunity to think of a way to shut up forever.

The only companion who would not betray finally left him.

"You have such a rich expression. It's just the most common job transfer, why do you have such a look like the sky is falling?" Uzo took a sip of wine and said with a gentle smile, "Ireland hasn't closed in yet. I heard about your resignation. I am a generous person and don’t mind sharing my subordinates with my colleagues - my work here is actually not busy. If you want to continue to serve him part-time, I have no objection."

Maya Hashimoto: "..." But I object!

Now that the matter has come to this, it seems it's too late to say anything else.

Maya Hashimoto stared at the doomed email, and the terrifying Saburo Inozuka who was hiding deep and lurking around him flashed through his mind: from top to bottom, from his former boss to his current colleagues, and even to the person in charge of custody His passerby superior... Once the net was pulled down, he never gave him a chance to refuse.

Although one can also die to clarify one's ambition...

Maya Hashimoto: "..." But if I think about it carefully, the conflict between myself and Uzo was not because Mr. Ireland had a grudge against Uzo. Now that he has resigned from Mr. Ireland, even if he dies, what will he achieve?

... Having said that, it is strange for the word "resignation" to appear in an organization. Can something like a confidant be adjusted at will?

But soon, thinking of the only special thing about him in Uzo's eyes, Hashimoto Maya came back to his senses.

He took a deep breath and set the bottom line: "Since it is the request of the organization, I will concentrate on working for you, but I still will not betray Mr. Ireland's information." - Not betraying companions, even former companions, this is The basic principles of an outlaw!

Uzo stirred the wine in the glass casually, and the ice cubes clicked lightly against the wall of the glass. He sighed: "I seem to have said that I don't need information from Ireland. But I do have work to do. I leave it to you, and I hope that after you come under my command, you will still be a loyal subordinate."

Maya Hashimoto was suspicious: "..." Do you really need information from Ireland?

But then I thought about it, even without him, Uzo had smashed Mr. Ireland countless times before. If he hadn't been concerned about not fighting among himself... well, if he hadn't been concerned about the organizational rules of not fighting among himself to the point of killing people, maybe Mr. Ireland is no longer alive.

In other words, it seems that Uzzo doesn't need his help at all when it comes to dealing with Ireland.

...So this is actually a true statement?

This thought flashed through his mind, and Maya Hashimoto suddenly became even more confused: "..." Why did you come here to dig him up? It can't be just to spite Ireland.

While making random guesses, Uzo gently placed the wine glass on the table.

In a short and crisp collision, he said: "You and Jiang Xia seem to have a good relationship?"

Maya Hashimoto: "?!"

Jiang Xia is now the only hope to defeat you. What do you want to do to that famous detective? !

Maya Hashimoto was silent for a moment and spoke carefully: "Actually, we have a very normal relationship. It's just that I have met him often recently. In order not to arouse his suspicion, I can only pretend to be an enthusiastic citizen, so we seem to get along quite harmoniously." He emphasized, "But it just seems like, in fact, the relationship is really ordinary."

Uzo: "Don't be humble. I remember that he helped you a lot - and when it comes to rescuing people, not only will the person being saved be grateful, but the party that saves the person will also become familiar with the person being rescued. Feeling. In his eyes, you are no longer a stranger."

While Hashimoto Maya cursed the cunning cadre in his heart, his subordinates' instincts kicked in and they speculated on Uzo's meaning: "...Do you want me to make friends with him, then stay with him and become an undercover agent?"

"It's a good suggestion, but I guessed wrong." Uzo smiled, "I want you to kill him."

"?!"

"I don't...!" Maya Hashimoto took a deep breath and changed her words, "I don't want to refuse your order, but this matter is not easy to succeed."

...Not to mention that he didn't want to kill Jiang Xia at all. Even if he wanted to, it would be Jiang Xia.

The detective could reconstruct the criminal's movement trajectory and thoughts at a glance, and even noticed that there was an Uzo hiding behind the scenes. If he were an ongoing criminal like me, I'm afraid he would be exposed during the preparation stage.
