Conan’s Corpse Picker

 Chapter 2060 2060【Uzo's Evaluation】

Xun Zhuangping handed Jiang Xia a business card without even looking at his cheap nephew next to him.

Jiang Xia replied easily.

Xun Zhuangping glanced at the occupation above and smiled enthusiastically: "As expected, it's you. You are also very famous in our legal community."

Mrs. Xun looked at this scene in surprise. This brother-in-law had always had a bad temper, and he was even more indifferent to her step-brother. He didn't expect to be so polite to Jiang Xia.

 …a little strange.

Just as he was thinking about it, Xun Zhuangping turned to look at Mrs. Xun: "I originally invited a detective to come here to discuss the commission, but who knew that guy was involved in a theft case and got into the police station, so he let me go - you are Mr. Jiang Xia at the moment. As your client, if your matter is not urgent, why not give the person to me first?"

Mrs. Xun nodded: "I'm not in a hurry, but..."

Xun Zhuangping has turned to Jiang Xia and said: "Let's go, my office is over here. I have a commission that I want to ask you for help."

Although he tried his best to show enthusiasm and politeness, he obviously did not give others room to refuse.

Jiang Xia looked him up and down and followed him decisively.

He thought of something after taking two steps, and looked back at Curaçao: "Miss Akiko, this Mr. Sohei Tatsuda is a senior in the legal field. Don't you plan to ask him for an autograph or something?"

Curacao thought of the female high school student next to Uzo who had accumulated a stack of out-of-print autographs, and her eyes twitched slightly: "No, thank you. We in the legal profession don't pay attention to signatures, and we prefer to put admiration in our hearts."

Lawyer Xun was very excited after hearing this, and his eyes on this group of people became a little friendly. Just as the elevator arrived, he said, "You want to go back upstairs too? Let's go together."

As the elevator ascended, Jiang Xia and Lawyer Xun chatted casually: "Is your client scheduled to be discussed at the hotel?"

Lawyer Xun nodded: "I rented a suite in this hotel for a long time and used it as an office. I usually have many guests coming from all over the country, so I set up my office here. It happens that they can talk about things as soon as they check in, so I don't have to worry about it. It took a lot of time.”

Hashimoto Maya yawned and looked at this expensive five-star hotel, thinking that the profession of lawyer would be really profitable.

When it comes to his career, Maya Hashimoto can't help but feel sad: he was exhausted when he followed Ireland, but as a member of an organization walking in the dark, there will always be a trace of confusion in his heart when he is busy. With the chicness of a second grader.

　　But now that he has a more qualified boss, his life safety has become a big problem. The precarious days are passing day by day. Now he just wants to be an ordinary civilian away from the disputes.

Maya Hashimoto: "..." If he had known this, he should have studied hard and worked in any industry. It would be better than falling into Uzo's hands now.

Just as I was thinking absentmindedly, there was a ding and the elevator arrived.

 The first to arrive was Mrs. Xun’s room.

Maya Hashimoto also lived here recently under the name of entrustment. He was about to sneak down with three companions in a low-key manner. Just as he was about to take a step, a hand suddenly landed on his shoulder.

Hashimoto Maya: "!"

Jiang Xia introduced to the lawyer: "This is the assistant of our detective agency. Let him stay with us."

 Hashimoto Maya: “…”

Tatsuma Zhuangping stared at this mixed-race man and frowned, looking up and down very critically.

 After a while, it felt a bit familiar.

He thought about it seriously and really remembered that when he happened to watch the news, he had seen something about Maya Hashimoto - it seemed that he was some kind of heroic co-pilot? Why did you become a detective again? Although he had some doubts in his heart, since Jiang Xia said so, Xun Zhuangping did not forcefully refute it.

 He ​​pressed the door button of the elevator and continued walking to the floor he reserved: "Then let's take a look together."

 …

 The elevator soon reached the floor where Xun Zhuangping was located.

Xun Zhuangping opened the door, revealing a spacious and bright business suite with floor-to-ceiling windows.

It seemed that he had lived here for a long time. When he came back, he felt as relaxed as going home. He entertained two guests and said, "Would you like something to drink?"

Seeing that he was planning to have a long conversation, Maya Hashimoto didn’t want to have anything to do with the commission: “No, we’ll leave as soon as we finish listening.”

"Haha, don't be nervous." Xun Zhuangping looked at his watch, "It's not an urgent task, let's talk about it slowly. It would be too boring if we don't have something to drink to pass the time."

With that said, he picked up the landline receiver at the entrance, called room service, and asked the hotel to bring coffee.

Maya Hashimoto looked at him and gradually felt something bad: when this man was looking for Jiang Xia just now, he looked very anxious, and he had been looking at his watch from the moment he went upstairs to now. Why was he not in a hurry after entering the room?

And judging from what he just said, Lawyer Xun made an appointment with another detective in advance, but that person was still unable to keep the appointment due to force majeure, so Xun Zhuangping hurriedly found Jiang Xia again - as if the important thing was not the detective or the commission, but at this time It's the same as asking a detective to ask for a commission.

Maya Hashimoto: “…” There was one case the day before yesterday, two cases yesterday, and another case this morning. It won't happen again so soon.

What exactly does Uzo want to do? Could it be that he was trying to show his new subordinate what it means to be a real king?

Maya Hashimoto broke into a cold sweat thinking about it, and some bad scenes gradually emerged in his mind: For example, when he went to Uzo to report his work, Uzo sat behind the large desk with his legs crossed, flipping things in his hands. Case reports from this period.

Then the boss suddenly threw the thick stack of reports to him: "You have read a lot during this period, and you should have learned them all. From now on, this work will be handed over to you. Continue to follow this frequency and This quality makes cases. If there aren't enough... you make the top yourself."

Hashimoto Maya's eyes darkened.

He suddenly remembered that when he was in the five-story pagoda, before he could find a few clues, Jiang Xia asked him to fast forward to solve the case.

Maya Hashimoto: "..." The Tokyo version of Sherlock Holmes and the organization version of Moriarty are indeed similar, as to his subordinates, they are all devils.

 Of course, the properties are different. Jiang Xia is sincerely creating opportunities for employees, but unfortunately she is an undercover agent whose identity cannot be revealed to the public.

 Across the street, Lawyer Xun felt that the detective assistant was a little strange. But now it's too late to change the client.

He looked at his watch and said, "I'm going to the bathroom, please."

He entered the toilet, and within two seconds, the phone in the entrance rang.

"Why did you call me at this time?" Lawyer Xun complained through the toilet door, "Can you answer the phone for me? Just say that I am busy and will call you back soon."

Jiang Xia nodded and patted Maya Hashimoto.

Maya Hashimoto stared at the ringing phone, took a deep breath, and moved over in small steps.
