Chapter 418 Huihara Ai: Gin is not right

Now that Jiang Xia went home smoothly, Hai Yuan's heart was finally relieved. After all, as far as she knows, the peripheral members of Gin Jiu's subordinates have a high loss rate...

looked at Jiang Xia who was opening the door, Hui Yuanai trotted to the wall, climbed over the gap in the fence, and turned into Jiang Xia's yard.

Conan immediately followed.

Unlike Haibara Ai, Conan did not know that Jiang Xia was an ancestral member of the organization.

Therefore, he still remembered the fact that Jinjiu had shown Jiang Xia a hint of admiration on the Big Dipper a few days ago.

Although at that time, Conan remembered that the gin and vodka left the station first, and there were more than a dozen exits there, and it was unlikely that people in black would squat to get Jiang Xia and pull him in. On the other hand, Conan felt that he had also used his own way to cut off Jiang Xia's curiosity about gin and tried his best to push Jiang Xia away from the organization - there should be no intersection between the two sides.

But when I came back, I remembered the cunning of the organization, and Haibara Ai, who found out that he was familiar with Jinjiu, was shocked when he heard him talk about "meeting Jinjiu and Jiangxia on the Big Dipper at the same time", Conan, who was very suspicious, suddenly became alert again, and wondered if the organization was more persistent than he had predicted before in terms of "wooing the talents he liked"?

The two fake children ran to Jiang Xia's side so worried.

Jiang Xia glanced at their expressions, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

Haibara Ai's lips moved, but he stopped talking.

She actually cares a little about Jiang Xia's current situation.

In Haibara Ai's impression, Gin rarely repeatedly contacts with a specific peripheral member during official tasks. First, Gin's temporary subordinates have a high rate of damage, and many of them are killed because of mistakes in the middle. Killed by one shot, or killed by one's own mistakes, the dead naturally cannot be reused.

The second is that Gin is worried that after regular contact, people with ulterior motives will try to use the information to arrest him like Akai Shuichi, so he will actively avoid this situation.

So now, after Hai Yuanai found out that Jiang Xia and Jinjiu had appeared on the same occasion several times, she felt more and more wrong.

Before, when Hai Yuanai hadn't defected and was still Xue Li, because Jiang Xia's parents pushed her away in a car accident and turned herself into a mess... Xue Li has always taken good care of Jiang Xia they left behind .

At that time, because of Jiang Xia's indifferent attitude, Xue Li thought that this colleague's child hated her and worried that Jiang Xia would refuse her help, so occasionally, she would avoid appearing in person, but let Qin Jiu give Jiang Xia a few safer tasks. This will not only achieve the mission rate required by the organization, prevent Jiang Xia from being sent as cannon fodder because he fails the assessment, but also ensure his safety as much as possible.

However, after she defected, Jiang Xia would still appear near Jinjiu from time to time...

This can't be an ordinary "random encounter" - if it really "randomize" to this level, the bullet of Jinjiu may have been embedded in Jiang Xia's brain long ago, even if he has no evidence.

There is only one truth, and other possibilities are ruled out... Haiyuan Ai thought to himself, did Jin Jiu discover Jiang Xia's talent and want to promote him?

Thinking of this possibility, Haibara Ai's mood dropped a lot.

In her opinion, this is obviously a risky thing for Jiang Xia, who once said frankly that he "only regards the organization as a job" and sounds like he just wants to paddle happily.

Haihara Ai is very concerned about the situation.

However

She glanced at Conan next to her calmly. In order to help Jiang Xia cover her vest, she could only swallow everything she wanted to say.

...Forget it, since Jiang Xia seems to be fine, let's change to a more everyday topic for now.

Haihara Ai reached into his pocket, touched it, and found an exquisite gift box. Palm-sized and tied with a pretty ribbon.

She took Jiang Xia's hand and put the handmade chocolate in his palm: "Giri Chocolate - today is Valentine's Day, this is for you."

...I heard that high school students in normal schools like to give each other chocolates during this festival.

Other high school students have it, and Jiang Xia had better have it too, so that he can realize that he is actually a student who should focus on his studies. A good attitude can also relieve the pressure of being forced to work in the organization.

When I was making chocolate yesterday, Haibara Ai thought so.

But now...

She glanced at the little box of chocolates she had made.

Then raised his head again, and glanced silently at Jiang Xia's house's filled mailbox and the gift boxes that had been piled on top of the mailbox.

I suddenly understood why she didn't see Jiang Xia when she occasionally came to the living room to guard Jiang Xia this morning. Instead, she saw several different high school girls every time.

... Jiang Xia's high school experience seems to be very perfect in some strange aspects, and even a little too perfect... Speaking of which, with the frequency of his skipping classes, how did he meet so many female classmates who knew his address?

No one is secretly selling Jiang Xia's address...

Haihara Ai with a complicated mood withdrew her gaze from the chocolate pile, and wanted to raise her hand to pat Jiang Xia on the shoulder, but she couldn't reach it.

In the end, he had no choice but to pat Jiang Xia's hand and sighed softly: "Pay attention to personal privacy."

Jiang Xia was a little puzzled as to where her emotion came from, but he had already discovered that people in this world seem to be very good at brain supplementation. Everyone has a variety of worlds in their brains, and it is normal for him to be unable to keep up with his train of thought.

So he nodded skillfully and pretended to understand.

He glanced at the chocolates that Huihara Ai sent him, thought about it, and took out a small cardboard box from his pocket:

"I didn't expect a festival so soon when I left, and I didn't have time to prepare a holiday gift... I'll give you this as a return gift. I brought it back from this business trip."

...Although it is a little different from chocolate, at least the color is similar.

"Thank you." Ai Haibara raised her hand to take it, looking at the hand-folded carton curiously.

The carton is only as big as the thumb and forefinger circled, and judging from the size, it may be a small ornament.

Judging from what I just said, this should be something Jiang Xia bought for himself...

As he was thinking about it, Haibara Ai suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from the carton, and the place where the palm of the hand and the bottom of the carton touched, also felt a slight tremor, as if something was scratching.

Haibara Ai:"?"

She was sluggish for a moment, and vaguely had a bad premonition, raised her head and glanced at Jiang Xia inquiringly.

Seeing that Jiang Xia had finished returning the gift, he had already stood up and was concentrating on looking at the chocolates on the mailbox next to him, as if thinking about what to do with this pile of sweets.

... Jiang Xia's attention did not continue to focus on the small cardboard box, which shows that this is not something to be seen, it should be a normal gift.

Haihara Ai hesitated for a while, but she still didn't hold back her curiosity. She opened the small cardboard box a little and looked in.
