Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Vodka: "..." Of course, the most important thing is that Nachi Shingo's suspicion is too great. From beginning to end, almost all the evidence points to him unequivocally. And according to Wu Zuo's habit of reversing, thinking in reverse, the real culprit is probably someone else!

   Looking at the coat and hat that the deceased had left beside him, Vodka found that he actually had an idea, but he wasn't quite sure.

   was thinking, when a voice floated next to him: "You keep talking, the idea is right."

  “!”

  Vodka turned his head whizzingly and saw Jiang Xia - this terrible screenwriter seemed to have guessed his thoughts from the changes in his eyes.

  Vodka listened to his words of encouragement and couldn't help but mutter in his heart: When this guy Uzo doesn't reveal his true nature, he really looks like a good senior, he is much better at talking than the big brother... Wait, stop! It must be remembered at all times - Uzo has killed one bad egg after another with this seemingly righteous appearance. The friendlier he looks, the more dangerous he is!

   Vodka touched the goose bumps on his arm, and moved away from Jiang Xia.

   Then he turned to look at Yoko Kinoshita who was close at hand, suppressed his excitement and asked: "Miss Yoko, I heard you just said that when you went out shopping, you met the dead at the door?"

   When Yoko Kinoshita saw the serious look of this "Little Brother Jiang Xia", he couldn't help feeling that Jiang Xia's vision for accepting the younger brother was really good, regardless of his ability, at least this person was very serious.

   She nodded: "Yes."

Facing the cute idol Yoko Kinoshita, Vodka's mood was much better than when he was next to Jiang Xia just now, and his thoughts became more alive. Like a serious detective, he said seriously: "When you meet him, look at him. Have you seen his face?"

"Ah?" Kinoshita Yoko was stunned, recalled in detail, and hesitated, "This... I didn't pay attention. His room was right at the end of the corridor, next to the stairs. So after he came out of the room, he went straight downstairs and stayed there. It was a short time, and we didn't speak."

  Vodka became more confident after hearing this, and nodded calmly:

   "The real death time of the deceased may be earlier than you think.

"After the murderer killed, he took off the dead man's watch, put it on and returned to the hotel. Then he sneaked into his room, found the dead man's coat and hat, put it on, pretended to be alive, and appeared in front of you. "

   He said solemnly: "That is to say, the person you met in the corridor is not the deceased, but the murderer who just killed someone."

  "?!" Yoko Kinoshita remembered that she passed by the real murderer without knowing it, and shivered silently, feeling like she was listening to a ghost story.

   But she looked at Jiang Xia, and at the little girl who slapped the shrine door bolt with a slap, and gradually calmed down.

  Kinoshita Yoko secretly moved to Jiang Xia and Yuan Shan and Ye, and sneaked a stop between them, wrapped in a sense of security again.

Only after    did he think about vodka's reasoning, and said to him from a distance: "So that's how it is."

  Vodka: “…?”

  ...It was clearly his reasoning, why did Miss Yoko move to Uzo? !

  ...Keep your eyes open when you watch Jiang Xia, Miss Yoko!

   As he was thinking, Jiang Xia suddenly gave him a thoughtful look.

   Then he put his hand on Yoko Kinoshita's shoulder, his voice was unprecedentedly gentle, like a sympathetic whisper: "Don't worry, we are all here, and we won't let the murderer touch you."

  Yoko Kinoshita only felt a sense of righteousness coming from his palm. She looked at this reliable young man who once helped her throw two stalkers as sacks, and nodded, "Yeah!"

  “…”

   The night was dark, and Vodka's face twisted suddenly, as if he had just swallowed the stone lion next to him.

   Fortunately, he just turned his back to the searchlight, and the sunglasses took up a small half of his face, so no one noticed his abnormality for the time being.

  Others are still immersed in the information given by the "detective assistant" vodka.

  Otaki Police Department touched his chin and tried to piece together the situation: "That is to say, the process of this murder is probably like this - the murderer first killed the deceased here, and then returned to the hotel pretending to be the deceased.

   "After you thought 'the dead man was still alive at 7:10', he returned to the scene, threw the watch, hat and clothes used for disguise here, wrote 'handsome guy' on the ground, and put the blame on Mr. Nachi.

"After that, Mr. Nachi came to the scene and found that the person he had an appointment with was dead, so in panic, he changed the 'handsome guy' on the ground to a 'stone lion' and wanted to blame the assistant who lived in the shrine. ?"

  Vodka recovered and nodded silently: Yes, this complicated situation is more like the plot that Uzo likes to see.

  Suzuki Sonoko listened and felt that his eyes had turned into mosquito coils: "...so troublesome."

The detectives around Mao Lilan are more concentrated, and she has been nurtured for a long time, but she actually keeps up with her train of thought, and then she has a question: "But, why did the real murderer write a death message like 'handsome guy'? - Mr. Nachi It's not that he doesn't have a name, wouldn't it be more accurate to write his name spelling? It's easy to accidentally hurt."

  The vodka was not in a very good mood, and glanced at Zhizhengo coldly: "Who knows what that person thinks, maybe the murderer is his fan."

  ... Of course, it's more likely that Uzzo deliberately designed it like this, so as to mislead him into thinking that Uzzo was exposed, observe his reaction, and wait for an opportunity to take revenge. Gee, this fish-enforcement bastard.

  Otaki Police Department has now looked at him with admiration. Hearing this casual sentence, he actually took it seriously: "That is to say, the murderer is actually a groupie?"

   He glanced at the suspicious people around him and found that most of them were crew members.

   And the only person who is more in line with the condition of "star chaser" seems to be a fan of Na Zhizhengo...

   "Huh?" Mao Lilan suddenly met his gaze, she froze for a moment, and suddenly recovered, "It's not me!"

"Of course it's not you." Jiang Xia brought the policeman's stray thinking back on track, "I wrote 'handsome guy' not to express my love for Mr. Nachi, but because under the circumstances, the real murderer could only change the words in blood to ' handsome guy'."

   "Change it to?" Several people keenly noticed the main point of his words. After a stunned moment, they gradually understood what they were saying, and said in surprise, "The words in blood were changed more than once?!"

Jiang Xia nodded: "Don't you think that in the word 'ニマイメ', which refers to a handsome guy, 'イ' looks particularly crowded? If you remove it and the previous word, the blood word becomes 'マメ'—'bean'. "
