Chapter 990 Classmates in the Coffin
It seemed that the mask drama rehearsal ended, and many staff members in the backstage rushed to the stage to finish the aftermath.
Jiang Xia avoided the remaining staff as if she was avoiding the elite monsters and searched in the background for a while.
He gradually walked through the middle hall and came to the other area, stopping in front of a door.
This is the prop room.
Jiang Xia sniffed through the door and nodded secretly - the murderous aura that fell three days ago should be inside.
He gently pushed open the door, walked among all kinds of props, and finally stopped in the corner.
Here is a coffin - a low-end Egyptian pharaoh coffin, probably just a background prop for making up numbers. It is not fancy and has an old iron color on the surface.
Jiang Xia looked around and saw no one, so he happily lifted the lid of the coffin.
Just as he was about to take out the murderous reward from the "Treasure Box", he suddenly paused and met a pair of frightened eyes.
——A man was actually stuffed into the coffin of the prop.
And he is an acquaintance...
——Full Mountain and Ye were tied into rice dumplings by props and hemp ropes, and their mouths were blocked. The lid of the coffin was suddenly opened. She looked at Jiang Xia outside. After being stunned, she instantly changed from fear to tears, twisting and struggling, and was ummy and saying something, as if she had seen her relatives in the wilderness.
Jiang Xia: "..."
He took the man out, untied the rope, and quietly touched a large mass of murderous aura at the bottom of the coffin with his other hand.
Before they could be caught, Yuanshan and Ye Xian grabbed his hand: "Someone wants to kill someone! - That actor, he actually wants to kill someone!"
Jiang Xia: "!"
No wonder there is so much murderous in this theater... Since Toyama and Hattori appear here, then Hattori Heiji should be nearby.
...
Jiang Xia patted Yuanshan and Ye's back and comforted him kindly: "Don't be anxious, just say it slowly - what's wrong?"
Yuanshan and Ye rubbed their sore arms, collapsed and collapsed beside them, and sighed:
"A few days ago, Heiji received a letter of commission with money. The letter was sent by the agent of this Mask Theatre Troupe - they were about to star in the "Silly Victory" recently, worried that someone would suffer misfortune. And I heard that there were indeed suspicious situations during the rehearsal, so I wanted to find Heiji to come and see the situation.
"I'm here to help! Who knew that Heiji actually said that I was in the way and asked me to go shopping alone to buy specialties - Is shopping alone a thing a person should do? Haha, I'm too underestimating!" Speaking of this, the fragility and panic in her eyes disappeared, and she couldn't help clenching her fists angrily. A piece of rope in her hand was pinched and powder fell from her delicate and white fingers.
Jiang Xia has become accustomed to the weird fighting power of these "weak female high school students".
While listening, he calmly covered the coffin next to him and returned to his original position.
Then he said thoughtfully: "You just now... Is there really something wrong with this troupe?"
"Well! The problem is very big." Yuanshan and Ye came to their senses and continued:
"I was so angry that Heiji was watching the rehearsal in front, I sneaked to the back to investigate.
"When I checked in this prop room, the rehearsal seemed to be over. I heard footsteps approaching this room... You know, it's not good to trespass someone's prop room, so I hid.
"I originally thought that the person who came in was the staff storing props, but I didn't know that it was Hiroshi Komatsu who played the "King" in the mask drama - that super famous old actor!
"He stayed next to the sword rack for a while, changed a sword on it, and muttered gloomyly to his cell phone-"
Toyama and Ha changed into an old man's tone: "'Kyoko, I don't know where you are, but you must read the latest news - the bastard who plays with your feelings is about to die unexpectedly. His sinful chest will be pierced by the sword of judgment.'"
"He must have replaced the stretchable prop sword with a real sharp sword! - It was the last rehearsal just now. When the show really started, the prince's chest would be pierced by the minister's "sword". Hiroshi Komatsu must take the opportunity to kill the prince!"
"Before I came, I didn't expect someone to harm people. And he laughed so scaryly. I was really shocked and accidentally knocked off a prop ball next to me. Subconsciously bent down to pick it up, and he suddenly shot me from behind."
"When I wake up again, I'll be in the coffin." Yuanshan and Ye touched their waists with tears in their eyes, "He actually carried a shock absorber with him. He was indeed not a serious person!"
Jiang Xia's eyes floated indecipherment: "..." To be honest, he also brought an electric shock device...
After all, this kind of thing seems to have a special offensive effect on people with high military power, and can easily knock down terrible opponents across levels.
The only problem is that I don’t know if this is only effective for high school girls or if it is also useful for men… If I meet Hideichi Akai another day, I can ask "Uzzo" to take it to try it.
...
Jiang Xia quickly came to his senses, nodded as if nothing had happened, and agreed with Yuanshan and Ye's words: "Indeed, he must have planned for a long time."
After a pause, he wanted to ask for the students' opinions: "What are you going to do next? Go to Hattori first?"
Yuanshan and Ye remembered the quarrel just now, and looked at Jiang Xia, the best helper in solving the case, shook his head decisively: "Don't look for it!"
After all, he is the daughter of the Osaka Prefecture Police and Criminal Minister, Toyama and Ha are quite familiar with some things.
She touched her chin and said a little sadly: "I just replaced the real and fake swords, and nothing happened. At this level, the police cannot handle it even when they come. The 'king' could completely argue that 'I am old and the props are placed in the wrong position' and other words, and send the police away."
Jiang Xia nodded, and then said: "If the matter is fooled by him and the victim "prince" he is targeting cannot be alert, and they will play in the same theater troupe. If this continues, one day there will inevitably be a murder case - since this is the case, why not make the matter bigger?"
"Make things big?" Toyama and Ye Xiaolao repeated the word. Hattori Heiji was quite straightforward. He didn't have much time to deal with incidents. She looked at Jiang Xia curiously, "How to do it specifically?"
Jiang Xia sat on the coffin opposite her, like a leisurely scriptwriter: "If you get the wrong real or fake sword, only the person involved will really care about it - who is the prince who plays the "bringing the chest with a sword"?"
"It's Robert." Toyama and Ye were deeply impressed by this young actor - it was not entirely because of the handsome man, but because he had very pink hair. I heard that he was born with a wonderful bloodline from where he inherited it.
She listened to Jiang Xia's words and her eyes lit up: "I know the location of his lounge. When I came, I passed by there."
