Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1184 1184 [Beauty Trap]

Jiang Xia thought about it and continued: "I heard that every book of his is very popular, but there is no regular cooperative publishing house, so every time a new book is published, it will attract countless publishers to compete...so you come to find Me, because Mr. Ju has published a new work, and his criterion for choosing a publishing house is to 'decipher the code he gave'?"

"...No, that's right." The editor under the duck was stunned for a moment, and then he was even more pleasantly surprised.Before hearing "Gin Jiu" say that he knew a reliable high school detective, he was worried that the other party was young and unreliable, but now it seems that this young detective is very reliable.

He hurriedly explained in detail: "Mr. Orange is about to celebrate his birthday. At that time, he will hold a birthday party in his villa in Karuizawa. The password will be announced at the party. And the first person to decipher the password will be able to Get the opportunity to cooperate with him... I, our publishing house really need this publishing right!"

……

The high school student detective did not refuse the commission.

On the day of the gathering of great writers, the four people in the restaurant - "Jiang Xia", "Belmode", "Gin Wine" and editor Yaxia drove to Karuizawa.

The car drove through the mountains, and for an unknown amount of time, a magnificent villa gradually appeared in front of my eyes.In front of the vast villa, there were rows of various cars parked. Apparently, apart from the editors and reporters who had heard the news, there were also some big figures who came to join in.

The party is held in the evening.Dozens of dining tables were set up in the courtyard, on which were all kinds of exquisite meals.

While the guests were chatting with different thoughts, the emcee stepped up on the temporary stage in front of him: "Mr. Ju Wuliu's birthday celebration is about to begin! Thank you for coming. I am today's emcee, Gui Hengping."

"Gui Hengping?" Behind "Jiang Xia", a person who was familiar with "Qin Jiu" showed doubts and said in a low voice, "I heard that Xiaofuting Chunle was chosen by the master of ceremonies, why did they suddenly change?"

The two melon eaters came over at some point, and said with a smile, "Mr. Ju forcibly asked for a replacement—maybe because Chunle's popularity has plummeted recently, and he felt that it would be a shame to find such an emcee, haha. After all, it is his 50th birthday, I can understand if I want to be a little more grand."

The subject of discussion, Ju Wuliu, had already stood on the stage.

"Thank you for coming to my birthday party." Ju Wuliu is over fifty years old, a little fat, with an uncomfortable haughty smile on his lips, he doesn't seem to want to talk nonsense to the group of editors who want him. Quickly cut to the chase, "Then, let's immediately start the long-awaited reasoning game."

"I saved the completed manuscript on a floppy disk and hid it somewhere. If you find it, it will be published by your publishing house." As he spoke, Ju Wuliu showed a malicious smile, "In addition, this In this new work, there is actually an 'easter egg' - although this is only a documentary novel, the villain in the novel has a prototype, and that 'villain' is currently hiding among the crowd attending the party. "

Hearing this, Jiang Xia subconsciously removed the memory bubble and glanced at the nearby gin.

However, Gin obviously didn't have the self-consciousness of being a "villain". At this time, he was sticking to his memory bubble, carefully checking to avoid missing any details-no one knew whether this bubble would only be played once.

Jiang Xia thought for a while, after all, he was playing a game of "gambling his life", so he had no choice but to get serious, and continued to look at the bubbles while no one was paying attention to him.

……

Tangerine Five Willows has already announced the clues, and the clues are written on a huge banner. It is a very unnatural sentence that seems to be made up-[Li Chuanbe Qi々なる草を].

A group of editors are a little confused, but at least they can recognize the place "Satokawabe".

It happened that there was a small river behind the villa, so a group of intellectuals sitting in the office rolled up their sleeves, put on their shovels, and began to rummage along the river.

Jiang Xia seemed to think of something, but wanted to enjoy the time of taking leave and absenteeism again, so she didn't say the answer.

A full night passed, and no one successfully dug out the floppy disk from the river.But the editors were apparently not discouraged, convinced that it was because of the dark sky and poor lighting.So early the next morning, I picked up the shovel again and ran to the river.

Jiang Xia and Belmode are not editors, so they are not anxious about this matter, they are sitting in the courtyard and having breakfast leisurely.

On the table next to it, Ju Wuliu was sitting, chatting with a beautiful female editor, Noaka Tomomi, and Ju Wuliu, suddenly approached, smiled and asked in a low voice: "Teacher Tangerine, what is the code?" It has nothing to do with 'Little River', right?"

Ju Wuliu didn't reject her approach at all, and teased, "Oh? You've unlocked the code? You really deserve to be a leader of B1 Publishing House—since you've unlocked it, go and get the original manuscript."

"Haha, I just wanted to ask you for a hint because I couldn't solve the secret code." Tomomi Nonaka pressed her closer, and gently raised her white and delicate hand to cover the big rough hand of Tangerine Wuliu, full of hints Sexually, "Are you right?"

Ju Wuliu was in a good mood, and she also squeezed her hand: "Then let me give you a little hint - if someone comes to you, just say so..." He whispered something.

Nonaka Tomomi was stunned for a moment: "Ah? What does that mean?"

Although Ju Wuliu is lustful, she seems to love his puzzles more, got up and left: "I won't tell you any more, go if you want!"

Tomomi Nonaka thought for a long time, but obviously she didn't gain anything. She turned her eyes slightly and landed on Jiang Xia next to her. Not long ago, she seemed to have heard that Yin Changzhi was chatting with another editor and complained that the young detective was a hateful riddler. If you know the answer and don't say it, you can see that you are very lacking in social beatings.

She actually suspected that Jiang Xia was bluffing - how could a young man solve a puzzle that a well-known writer painstakingly laid out, so she still looked for Ju Wuliu first.But now...

Ju Wuliu refused to say, so why not take a detour and try Jiang Xia, since there is nothing to lose anyway.

Thinking of this, Nonaka Tomomi regrouped and prepared to move to Jiang Xia's table.But before standing up, she suddenly saw the woman next to Jiang Xia turn her head and wink at her.The side face that was covered by the hair just now appeared in front of her, so beautiful that Tomomi Nonaka's breath stopped.In the next second, she saw the woman suddenly leaning to the side and sticking to Jiang Xia's shoulder.

Tomomi Nonaka: "..."

Damn it, it's fine to get involved in serious business these days, but you even have to get involved in a beauty trap? !
The corners of her eyes twitched slightly, she weighed the strength of both sides, snorted, gave up trying, turned and left.
