Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1038 1038 [He lit a cigarette and talked about the past]

"..."

The air was quiet for a moment.

In front of a group of guests, Chairman Toya was even more embarrassed.

She shook her head, changed the subject, stopped talking to Mika Taniguchi, and turned to Sonoko Suzuki: "I'll go to the office to put down the flowers first, and take down the corresponding contract documents—please wait over there."

She raised her hand to signal the hall—to the south there was a carpeted seating area with a simple bar.

Suzuki Sonoko nodded, expressing his understanding, the work area generally does not allow guests to enter: "Okay."

Chairman Toya looked at Mika Taniguchi again: "You go to the clothing accessories room on the 8th floor to prepare. Today I will take pictures of those college-style clothes. The guests have something to do in the evening, so hurry up."

Mika Taniguchi snorted as a response.

The two walked to the elevator door and waited silently for the elevator.

Okiya Subaru looked at their backs silently, and couldn't help but think of the gaze of "Uzo" from behind the building next door just now.He raised his hand and pushed his glasses, always feeling that something would happen today.

……

Subaru Okiya slowed down a few steps because he was thinking about something.

As a result, I just heard the muttering of two security guards, and they seemed to be talking about Mika Taniguchi.

The young one was full of complaints: "Who would steal a plan and sell it to a rival company just because she doesn't want to work overtime! She even asked the captain to help her erase the monitoring, and now a large number of people have left... I don't want to lose my job. If this continues, the company will not go bankrupt."

"How can it be, such a big company." The older one is quite buddhist, "If it really goes bankrupt, it will be a big deal to get compensation and find another job."

The young security guard shook his head: "It's not that easy to change jobs..."

The elder hugged the thermos cup and comforted him with a smile:
"Don't think about things too complicated. If you don't do it, how do you know you can't do it?
"To be honest, my former presidents were unfortunately killed, and now I have changed jobs several times. Look, I am still alive and well?

"Actually, at the beginning, after I came here, I found that the president of Toya always made people work overtime. I thought this time it wouldn't last long. I didn't expect the employees here to have a good temper. They just steal the plan and sell it to the opponent... ..."

Okiya Subaru couldn't help but glanced at them: "..."

He thought that his life experience was rich enough, but he didn't expect that compared with a real social person, he was actually far behind... Wait, why is it always the president who dies?Could it be that in the shadows of society, there are actually many people similar to Wu Zuo, and even Wu Zuo's assassination skills are actually some kind of family-passed occupation, or a type of work organized for special training?

"..." Hiss, it seems that by accident, something incredible came to mind.

Okiya Subaru couldn't help but froze for a moment.Then he quickly returned to normal. He walked a few steps quickly and caught up with several other people.

……

Jiang Xia and a few classmates came to the rest area.I saw a drink cabinet here.

He walked to the side to study for a while, took out the paper cup, and took a glass of Coke.

Looking back while drinking, I saw Mao Lilan looking at the elevator from a distance, seeming a little puzzled:
"They all go upstairs, why don't they take the same elevator?"

"Huh?" Suzuki Sonoko turned his head and glanced at the elevator.

There are three iron doors on the wall over there, which are three elevators.

At this time, President Toya and Mika Taniguchi entered one each, and the elevator went up.

"That. Those elevators work differently."

Suzuki Sonoko also came to Jiang Xia's side, chugging on the Coke, while casually explaining science to his friend:

“我记得有一架是1-8楼停靠的客户用电梯，一架是直达15楼的社长专用电梯，还有一架是直达8楼，从8楼开始每层正常停靠的电梯——因为8楼以上是员工区域，客户只能进入下面的1-8层。”

"..." Jiang Xia looked over there, vaguely remembering something.

At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, a figure walked up to him.

"?" Jiang Xia turned her head and saw her new subordinate.

Okiya Subaru seemed hesitant to speak, and was speaking.

Looking at each other for a moment, Jiang Xia assumed the attitude that a high school detective should have, and asked, "What's wrong?"

……

Okiya Subaru wanted to quietly find out why Jiang Xia appeared here today.

Although curiosity killed the cat, he was really curious about whether Uzo's black hands were secretly moving in today's experience.

After hesitating for a moment, Okiya Subaru chatted and said, "I just heard from the chairman that you are today's models—is this also your part-time job?"

Jiang Xia: "..." Did this person just follow in without even understanding the situation? ...Speaking of which, why did Okiya Subaru get together with them so naturally?

Although I don't mind having an extra member of the organization next to me, but thinking about it, I always feel that something is not right...

Jiang Xia sized Okiya Subaru for a moment, then thought about it and explained: "It's not considered a part-time job, but I just came here to help temporarily."

"Is that so..."

Okiya Subaru pushed his glasses back, and the lenses clicked and reflected light.Although he looked like a calm scholar, Jiang Xia always suspected that he was doing reading comprehension in his mind.

While thinking and talking, the progress of the conversation was very slow.

Before Okiya Subaru could successfully extract any information, there was a sudden "ding--" from the elevator.

Someone is coming down.

……

A few people startled, stopped talking and looked over.

The door of the "direct access to the 15th floor" elevator opened with a clatter, and Chairman Toya ran out quickly.

She ignored the guests sitting in the rest area, and ran straight to the security guard: "Has Taniguchi left?"

"Ah?" The security guards were taken aback and shook their heads, "No, no one entered or exited the hall just now."

"Really." Chairman Toya frowned, looked at his mobile phone, and the wrinkles under his eyes were piled up, "She answered my call, but she didn't make a sound, I thought she was losing her temper again... ..."

Several guests heard the movement, put down their Coke cups, and walked over.

Jiang Xia looked towards the elevator, and her eyes stopped on the display screen above: "The elevator that Ms. Taniguchi took is still on the 8th floor. She probably never went downstairs."

Chairman Toya glanced back, sighed, walked over and pressed the elevator call button: "Really... I'll go to the eighth floor to have a look."

However, after waiting for a while, the elevator that went directly to the 8th floor was fixed on the 8th floor and remained motionless.

The elderly security guard was taken aback.

After hesitating for a moment, he turned to press the ordinary elevator next to him: "Take this one and go see the situation."

This time, the elevator opened smoothly.

Chairman Toya walked into the elevator, thought of something, and looked back at the guests: "Come together, the clothing room is on the ninth floor, and I happened to take pictures on the way up, so as not to make another trip later... Maybe Taniguchi I don’t want to work overtime, so I’ll organize those accessories.”
