Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 1519 1519 [Okiya Subaru: Jiang Xia wants to shark me]

  Okiya Subaru never felt that Jiang Xia was a scary person. In his eyes, this sunny and righteous detective has always been a symbol of "hope"—if he is framed as a murderer, Jiang Xia will definitely be able to crack the truth and find the real culprit.

  However, theory is theory. In fact, at this time, after seeing Jiang Xia for the first time, especially after seeing the stick in his hand, Okiya Subaru's intuitive alarm began to buzz.

  He threw the ball of rope in his hand towards the detective who had fallen into the room, and instinctively turned around and wanted to run.

  However, the messy fishing net-like rope failed to block it at all, and was gently swept aside by Jiang Xia's unfolded swinging stick.

   Then a hand grabbed from behind.

   "!!"

Although he didn't see the scene behind him, as Jiang Xia's hand approached, Okiya Subaru felt that his scalp was about to explode. For some reason, he thought of the boss who didn't look like a human when he met Uzo for the first time. Pressing his head from behind, let him admire the scene of the half-rotted skeleton buried under the cosmos.

  The breath of death coming from behind was so strong that Okiya Subaru dodged to the side with the desire to survive, but actually managed to dodge it.

  However, in the next second, he stumbled suddenly. Okiya Subaru lost his balance unexpectedly and fell to the ground with a thud.

He wanted to get up immediately, but before his thoughts turned into actions, a foot had already stepped heavily on his back, like a wedge pinning the specimen in place, before Okiya Subaru said a complete "Help!" Exit, there was a grunt from being stepped on, and the sound disappeared from his mouth.

  In the chaos, he could only see shadows on the ground.

  Light and shadow flickered, Jiang Xia swung the stick in his hand, the light came from the window behind him, and his thick and dark shadow was cast on the ground, like a demon wielding a sickle and grinning.

  The next moment, the cudgel rolled with the sound of the wind, and fell down with a bang, rubbing the tip of Okiya Subaru's nose and gouging into the ground.

  Crack—

  The ground was smashed into a deep hole by the metal material at the tip of the stick, and the cement fragments splashed, and a small piece of it slapped across the graduate student's face, leaving a long and thin line of bloodstains.

   "..."

  Okiya Subaru has never realized so clearly that from the perspective of a criminal being chased, a sunny and righteous high school student detective can be so scary.

Cold sweat slid down the corners of his forehead, his eyes turned to the corners of his eyes, and he stared at the concrete ground in front of him with difficulty. For a moment, he even forgot the pain on his face, and there was only a blank space in his mind, which was brushing shoulders with death. — If this stick hit his head just now...

   "Mr. Okiya?"

  In the mind of Subaru Okiya, there were countless versions of being knocked to death with a stick.

  There was a sudden light on his back.

The force that seemed to embed him into the ground disappeared without warning. Jiang Xia moved away from the foot that was stepping on him, knelt down and poked him with a stick, as if surprised: "Why are you? You dressed like this What are you doing. By the way, why did you go to England?"

  Okiya Subaru: "..." Recognized, he actually recognized it! With this level of camouflage, is it really impossible to hide from a sharp detective like Jiang Xia at close range...

   Once, Okiya Subaru was very worried that his disguise would be seen through by people he knew.

   But now, hearing this sentence, he felt like hearing the sound of nature—at least it meant that he would not be accidentally injured by this terrible detective and locked up in the warehouse as a pig.

  For a while, Okiya Subaru couldn't tell whether it was Uzo's terrible stage, or being beaten to death by the detective as a criminal. Obviously reason told him it was the former, but when Jiang Xia swung down that stick just now, the air seemed to freeze, and he really felt that he saw the other side of death.

   "Mr. Okiya?...Could it be a mistake?"

Maybe it was because he didn't respond after seeing him for a long time. The detective hesitated for a moment, thinking that he had recognized the wrong person, stood up again, and stepped back again, as if he was worried that the criminal he had finally caught would run away, or as if he wanted to take advantage of the police's absence. Step on and knock a few sticks to try the feel.

The oppressive feeling from just leaving came back, Okiya Subaru did not expect that he would return to the gate of **** so soon, seeing the detective tentatively raised his stick, he immediately couldn't care about anything else: "It's me, wait, I'm not the murderer what!"

  Okiya Subaru's original voice is undoubtedly very convincing.

   The few times he met before, it seemed that he was reluctantly classified as a "companion" by this detective.

  Jiang Xia finally stopped stepping on him, but stretched out his hand to pull him up, and wrapped the rubber part with a swing stick intimately, and patted the dirt on his body.

  Okiya Subaru was shocked by the shot, and instinctively moved away a little.

Jiang Xia didn't care, but just looked at him in surprise: "I didn't expect it to be you. Someone was shot upstairs just now, because the people guarding below didn't see anyone leaving the building. The police suspect that the murderer is still in this building." Louli—I thought you were that vicious murderer."

  Okiya Subaru: "..." The word "cruel" comes out of your mouth, I always feel something weird...

"By the way, you haven't told me yet, why did you dress up like this?" Jiang Xia's voice sounded again soon, he looked at Okiya Subaru, and besides the joy of seeing his friends in a foreign country, his eyes seemed to be confused. There is a trace of detective thinking that doubts everything equally:

   "Speaking of which, did you take the same plane as me when we came here? At that time, I felt that one of the passengers was very similar to you, but at that time the light was dim and the distance was far away, so I thought I had made a mistake."

   This day has been full of ups and downs, Okiya Subaru's usually flexible head has rusted a little, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

   But from the corner of his eye, Jiang Xia caught a glimpse of Jiang Xia's swinging stick that was not put away, and occasionally shook it, so he didn't dare to really pretend to be dumb.

After struggling for a moment, Okiya Subaru had no choice but to grit his teeth and try to be a deep-rooted riddler: "There are some things I can't say, but this current identity is very important to me, if possible, I hope you don't expose it—as for this time The case really has nothing to do with me, I only realized something happened when I heard gunshots suddenly."

   Although Jiang Xia is still a high school student, because of his part-time job as a detective, he seems to have come into contact with many mysterious clients, and he seems to accept this kind of riddleman's behavior well.

  He stared at Okiya Subaru, thinking silently.

   It wasn't until the other party finally couldn't maintain a calm expression that he nodded his head: "No problem, I won't say anything. But I will investigate this case—you really don't know anything?"

  Okiya Subaru nodded like clockwork.

  Jiang Xia responded, but didn't say whether he believed it or not.

He pointed to the door of the warehouse: "In this case, let's go to the police together. After all, you are also a witness in this case. I can't just let you go like this—and in case the murderer is still hiding nearby, pretending to be afraid of crime If the appearance of suicide is the crime, things will be troublesome."
