Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 1018: 1017 [Kudou, look at this pot...]

   After making this decision, Haibara Ai took a deep breath, suddenly stood up, rummaged through the boxes for a while, found an electric shock from the drawer, took it out and put it in his pocket.

   Then he cluttered up with something that could be used to smash people.

   Finally, she walked to the door, opened it, and looked out carefully.

  The street is filled with dense fog, and the street lights are like hazy light balls, connecting to the distance.

   There was no one else on the street, and all kinds of houses stood in the fog, like a haunted house.

   Haibara Ai watched silently for a while, and finally made up her mind.

   She pushed out the door and walked towards the sign on the street corner. At the same time, I secretly thought to myself that if there is any obstacle or danger, I will run back immediately—at present, it seems that exploration at night is an indispensable part. It's daytime. But right now, time isn't fast-forwarding, which means she has to do something. .

  …

  Although Haihara Ai is only an 18-year-old girl in bloom, she has spent a lot of time in the black organization after all. Currently, she is only afraid of people in black, not the dark, and she is much more courageous than her peers.

   However, when she came to the street corner and looked at the road sign shrouded in mist, she was suddenly startled.

  "..." The "pole" supporting this road sign is not a normal iron pole, but a figure! That "person" stood quietly in the thick fog, his figure occasionally distorted by the shaking fog, like a monster with a road sign on its head.

   This bizarre shape made Haibara Ai's mind buzz. At this moment, the "road sign man" suddenly took a step towards her.

  "!" Haibara Ai grabbed the electric shocker and slammed it towards the "person".

  's wrist was suddenly grasped, like iron pincers, Hai Yuan was mournful and horrified, he struggled hard, and couldn't get away at all. She gritted her teeth and reached behind her waist with her other hand, holding a small dumbbell.

   was about to take it and smash it hard when the "road sign man" suddenly made a familiar voice: "...what are you doing?"

   Haibara Ai was startled, her movements froze.

   After a while, she recognized the owner of the voice: "...Jiang Xia?!"

   "Well." Jiang Xia took two steps forward, left the road signpost that he was leaning against, and stood under the street lamp.

   He looked at Hui Yuanai for a moment, then let go of her hand: "You also want to go to school?"

   "Yes, I don't know which direction the school is in, so come and look at the road sign." Haibara Ai breathed a sigh of relief. She looked left and right, "Where are the others?"

   "We're all at home, probably won't be able to get out." Jiang Xia pointed to a house in the distance:

"I was passing over there just now, I heard movement in the house, I got close to observe the situation, and saw Hattori Heiji being beaten by his mother, it seemed that he was preventing him from going out... I knocked on the door and no one listened to me. Several other houses The same is true.”

  "..." Haiyuan Ai thought of the troubled black-skinned detective, and silently ordered a wax for him.

   She quickly understood what Jiang Xia said just now, and sighed: "It seems that tonight, only we can act normally."

"Let's go to school first." Jiang Xia didn't seem to want to talk about this topic, and turned to move towards Fudo High School, "Although a game of six people, only two people search, it is difficult to clear the customs. But we can collect some relevant clues first, by the way. Find a way to keep everyone moving at night."

  Haihara Ai nodded.

   She trotted a few steps and caught up with Jiang Xia before he disappeared into the thick fog.

   The two of them walked in tandem to the high school in the distance.

  …

  The school gate is locked.

   Fortunately, the school walls are not high.

  Jiang Xia skillfully climbed over the wall, stretched out his hand to pull Huiyuan Ai up, and looked at the ancient ginkgo tree next to him amid the rustling of leaves.

   Haibara Ai also quickly climbed up.

She carefully supported the wall and followed Jiang Xia's gaze to the tree: "This is the sixth most incredible thing... I didn't see any corpses on it. Maybe it's because we are investigating those 'incredible events', which is equivalent to rushing It came with a corpse, so you don't meet the conditions to see it?"

   "It may also be because there are no corpses on the tree." Jiang Xia insisted on materialism, "From the words of Sakurashu-senpai, there should be someone behind the scenes with some purpose."

  …

   Until they jumped off the wall, escaped the security and sneaked into the teaching building, the ginkgo tree was not abnormal.

   After the two entered the building, they went straight to the activity room of the "Mysterious Phenomenon Research Association". In order not to disturb the security guard, they did not turn on the lights.

   Haibara Ai blocked the light of the flashlight and took a picture on the table.

   I saw that the stack of bound editions of the conference journal and the disk containing the information on the "Seven Mysteries" were still well placed on the table.

   She breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the computer in the corner with the documents, and turned on the computer.

   A faint fluorescent light appeared, and Haibara Ai opened the bound book and glanced at it.

   She remembered the speed at which Jiang Xia had always been able to see through the truth. She couldn't help but look to the side and asked the question in her heart: "What's going on with this game? When I was pulled in, I was obviously not in the game cabin."

   Jiang Xia withdrew his gaze from the pitch-black window, sighed on his face, and secretly gave the neighbors the pot:

   "It's the same for me. I just played with my phone before going to bed, and things turned out like this... When you have time, ask Kudo. He seems to be the first to come, and he seems to have some understanding of the situation."

Haibara Ai remembered that when the five of them fell into the "office", Kudo Shinichi really stayed there early in the morning, and he asked them "why did you agree to it?" Nodding: "It may be the situation caused by the last 'London copy'."

   At the same time, she thought to herself: I'm afraid I won't get much information if I ask Kudo Shinichi. Kudo also looked confused.

   But if I can meet my sister, maybe...

  Haihara Ai quickly regained his senses, turned over the information, and cleared his throat as if nothing had happened.

  Jiang Xia obviously had plans for a long time: "I'll go to those 'incredible' places to see the situation. If there are clues, I'll come back to you."

  Haihara Ai nodded: "Be careful on the road."

   Jiang Xia quickly pushed the door out, and the door clicked shut again.

   Haibara Ai was the only one left in the room.

   I don't know if it was because Jiang Xia opened the door just now, she always felt cold behind her back, as if a cold wind was caressing her spine.

  Haihara Ai clenched the electric shocker in his hand, and continued to lower his head and swished through the book.

  Since there are no more detailed clues, she decided to find out the most basic reports about the "Seven Mysteries" in the journal.
