Chapter 71: The detective and the police are at odds
After packing up his belongings, Ritsu Sasashima rode his motorcycle to Tokyo International Airport.
It was almost 15 p.m. U.S. time when I arrived at Washington Dulles International Airport, so I might not be able to catch dinner. While there's nothing good about a good meal, it's okay to cook a priceless steak.
As long as you don't need money to peel some white truffles and black truffles, it will always make someone bleed.
However, Ritsu Sasashima's luck was not very good, and after arriving at the airport half an hour early to check in the formalities, he noticed Shinichi Kudo and Moriran sitting in the waiting hall talking excitedly.
Why would these two high school students have nothing to do and go to New York to play after school on the day of the golden day?!
Detectives paired with police officers always have an ominous premonition of being forced to work overtime.
Ritsu Sasashima decisively turned around and left before the other party noticed him. After communicating with the staff at the airport, the flight was successfully rebooked to the next flight.
Stay away from Kudo Shinichi, refuse the double BUFF, and put an end to the possibility of overtime.
He cautiously left, only to remember that he was now in the form of Ogier, and even if he sat across from Kudo in the open, he would not be recognized.
Ritsu Sasashima sat in the first-class lounge on the next flight as he pulled out his cell phone and called Belmode to inform him that his arrival at the New York airport would be delayed by an hour.
The original afternoon of 15 o'clock became 16 o'clock, because it was close to dinner time, Sasashima Ritsu deliberately did not enjoy the plane meal, he fumbled his phone to unlock the airplane mode, but he didn't expect to hear a "Sorry" as soon as he connected it.
"What do you apologize for? Aren't you going to pick me up at the airport? ”
"yes, something went wrong... I'm sorry, but I'll treat you to a big dinner in the evening, and I'll bother you to go straight to the place where the email says and wait for the fish to take the bait. ”
It was rare to hear Belmode use the word "tired", and Ritsu Sasashima had to agree: "Oh, hang up." ”
Hanging up the phone, Ritsu Sasashima checked the email he had just received late, only to find out that the destination was actually in New York.
“…… Vermouth, this woman is kidding me? Why didn't you say it was in New York earlier? ”
He frowned at the distance from Washington Dulles International Airport to his destination, which would take at least two and a half hours by car.
Ritsu Sasashima let out a heavy breath and walked towards the outside of the airport with his satchel. In order to complete the task, I had to rush to New York by car.
After three hours passed, Ritsu Sasashima, who had successfully arrived outside the abandoned factory, paid the fare with the US dollars he had prepared in advance. He lowered the brim of his hat to look at his surroundings, and once again fumbled for his phone to dial Belmode, but he didn't expect the call to be answered quickly.
Ritsu Sasashima was about to speak when she noticed that the voice on the other end of the phone was a little noisy, and there was the sound of high heels stepping on the wooden floor, more than one pair.
Belmode put the phone in his pocket and adjusted the mute mode, so he didn't find that the call was connected?
Just as Ritsu Sasashima was puzzled, a slightly familiar woman's voice came, and it was still in Japanese.
"Isn't that good? They're about to start in 40 minutes, so why bother them so much? ”
"Don't worry, there will be a narrator in the first 20 minutes of the show, and the audience will first lead the stage to create a place where Greek mythology is staged."
The latter voice made Ritsu Sasashima stunned, this was not the voice Belmode usually uses, but her voice after changing her appearance into Sharon Wynyard.
What is this woman doing? Why did she suddenly change her appearance to become Sharon? And the voice from before, I don't think I've heard it somewhere.
Soon, Ritsu Sasashima got the answer.
"Excuse me... What's on the ceiling? ”
"It's a stage costume, and it's hanging on it because it takes up too much space."
It's Mao Lilan's voice, no wonder I think that voice is familiar, isn't that the voice of Kudo Shinichi's mother, Yukiko Kudo? Although she doesn't know what Belmode is doing, Ritsu Sasashima knows that she can only respond to her now until she goes to the right place.
But at this moment, there were shouts and screams on the other end of the phone, and he clenched his fists with a worried look on his face, shouldn't the beast be okay?!
"Danger!"
"It's armor!"
The sound of panicked footsteps rang out one after another, and it was not difficult to tell from the previous conversation that it was the stage costumes hanging high in the air that had fallen, and they were avoiding danger.
"Ahh NO——”
"Xiaolan!"
Bang!
The loud sound of a heavy object falling on the floor, Ritsu Sasashima subconsciously took the phone away, and he asked as low as he could, "Hey, Vermouth!" What's going on? ”
In the midst of the chaos, Belmode realized that her mobile phone was actually connected, and as soon as she picked it up, she heard Ogier's slightly anxious voice, this child would actually worry about his safety?
Seeing that everyone's attention was not on him, Belmode responded softly: "I'll call you later, I'm fine." ”
The phone was hung up like this, and Ritsu Sasashima wondered, the object of his real concern was the "Xiaoran" shouted by Kudo Shinichi, could it be that Maoriran was hit?
Belmode, who hung up the phone, happened to hear Rose Schwert say, "Yes, that mirror is our patron saint", she frowned and walked forward, standing in front of Maolilan, and said in a displeased tone: "I said did you figure it out?" ”
Seeing that their eyes were focused on themselves, Belmode, who was disguised as Sharon Wynyard, pointed to Maolilan behind him, and said solemnly: "You should be thankful for not mirrors or gods, it should be this girl!" ”
“Oh!” The rescued Rose Schwewit ran to Maolilan excitedly, showed a bright smile, and said gratefully: "Thank you, thanks to you just now!" ”
Mao Lilan didn't expect to be held by the big star, and said embarrassedly: "It's just a gesture, no need to thank you." ”
Sith Flockhart looked at the golden watch and saw that it was too early, and he reminded him loudly: "We should be ready to take the stage." ”
Rose Xiu Witt smiled and waved her hand to Xiaolan, and said cordially: "Then wait until the performance is over, and then talk backstage." ”
"Good!"
Seeing the actors leave, Mao Lilan, who realized it later, felt a little pain in her left wrist, and when she lifted it, she found that she had bruised when she saved Miss Rose.
Kudo Shinichi was anxious to find a band-aid in his pocket, but he didn't expect Sharon Wynyard to take out his handkerchief and hand it to Xiaolan.
"I'll just say, there is no god in this world, and if there is a god, you won't be hurt now."
"Huh?"
Belmode handed over the handkerchief and walked towards the exit, and she paused and said slowly, "There is Kiko, then I will go back first." ”
"Sharon, aren't you going to the audience to see their show?" Kudo Yukiko wondered.
"Well, I was going to see it." Belmode retracted his gaze, thinking of what he was about to do, and his tone became indifferent: "But I suddenly thought of something, I'm afraid there will be an unprecedented storm tonight, so I'll go first." ”
The meaningful words puzzled Kudo Shinichi and others, what exactly did Sharon Wynyard mean by "unprecedented storm"?
