Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 1555 Chapter 1555 [Ireland vs Okiya Subaru]

   Kidd's heart suddenly splashed with a stormy sea.

  He was in a cold sweat thinking about how to get out. At this moment, the monster behind him tried to tap him with those sharp thorns after absorbing the magic power.

  Finding that there really seems to be no extra magic power, Ms. Spider stopped her action with some dissatisfaction.

   "..."

Although the magic power he had accumulated for a long time was gone again, Kuroba Kaito couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the few spikes that didn't continue to poke at the vitals—at least for now, this monster seems to just want to Gather some magic power, and have no intention of eating human flesh.

  The newly-appeared monster didn't do anything, but Kidd's curiosity couldn't help but grow stronger.

  He wanted to turn around and take a peek at this monster he had never seen before. But from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the spikes on his body, and he suddenly felt that these things looked familiar - they looked like 8 enlarged spider legs.

Kuroba Kaito: "..." Wait, the thing behind is probably a big fluffy and scary spider, it will stare at him with eight eyes as soon as it turns around, and then open its **** mouth and bite him The kind that bites off the head.

   Thinking of the spider enlarged to look like a human, Kaito Kuroba shivered silently, and silently stopped turning his head.

  He tried to communicate: "Well, I'm actually Jiang Xia's good friend too! You see, I just rescued him from that pretty aunt's clutches!"

   I don’t know if this passage played a role, or for some other reason.

  The next moment, with a slight rustling sound, those few dangerous spikes were actually retracted.

  Kaito Kuroba: "..." Is Jiang Xia's name so useful among monsters?

   Or was the big spider already full, so it retreated by itself?

  Thinking about this, he finally couldn't suppress his curiosity, and couldn't help but look back.

  However, there was an empty alley behind him, and the monster left without knowing when.

  Kaito Kuroha blankly adjusted the neckline that had been poked out, and suddenly thought of something.

  He turned his head quickly, and saw Jiang Xia on the chair opened his eyes, as if he had woken up from drunkenness.

  Kaito Kuroba: "..." What a coincidence of timing? As soon as the spider left, Jiang Xia woke up?

   No, from a logical point of view, it’s more likely to be the other way around—Jiang Xia just woke up, and the monster left.

  Kaito Kuroba: "..." So, that scary big spider is really not very good-looking, maybe it didn't want Jiang Xia to see its appearance, so it slipped away in a hurry... Fortunately, I didn't look back just now. But on the other hand, such a shy monster seems quite cute, maybe I should look back just now?

  He looked at Jiang Xia on the bench, full of questions about monsters. But I remembered that I was still wearing Yusaku Kudo's skin anyway. Out of dedication to pretending to be someone, Kaito Kuroba reluctantly suppressed those question marks.

  He pushed the thin-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, showing a gentle smile belonging to an elder: "Long time no see."

  Jiang Xia: "..."

  …

the other side.

  After the brief conversation between "Uzo" and Okiya Subaru ended.

  Okiya Subaru solved a life-long event, and sighed with mixed joy and sorrow.

No matter what impact this decision will have on his future, in short, now, he is relieved after a long absence—without the terrible case brought by Uzo, Okiya Subaru really feels alive at this time , don’t worry about being involved in a murder case in the next step, and then turning into a brutally affected corpse, or a suspect wanted by the police.

  But leaving the bar, crossing a few crowded night market streets, on the way to a place where I can get a taxi.

  Okiya Subaru was originally relaxed, but because of some information, he silently became tense.

  Okiya Subaru: "..." I always feel that among the people walking towards him, some of them will look at a certain angle behind him a few more times, as if they are following a rather eye-catching person.

   It’s just a street, and it can also be interpreted as a way. But now he has changed his trajectory several times, every street is like this...

  A terrible thought suddenly jumped out, and Subaru Okiya thumped in his heart—he should not be followed.

   Pata.

  Okiya Subaru's wristwatch seemed to be unfastened and fell to the ground.

  He turned around to pick it up, and looked behind him vaguely when he turned around, but he didn't see any suspicious figures.

   But this does not seem to represent safety: there are many small shops on both sides of this street, the billboards or large displays at the door, and even the shops themselves with poor lighting are excellent hiding places.

  If the follower is always looking for a place to hide, and quickly hides when he has a sign of turning around, then he really won't see anything.

  Okiya Subaru picked up the watch and put it on, turned around and continued walking. The pace was unhurried, but the heart was already beating out quickly.

  Okiya Subaru: "..." At this time, I really miss the glasses I have been wearing before.

  If the glasses are still there, he can still find a way to use the reflection to check the situation behind him. But now, due to the disguise of his identity when he went abroad, he no longer wears glasses.

  Okiya Subaru had no choice but to observe all possible reflective things in front of him, but he still found nothing.

  ... There seemed to be no one following him.

  But the experience accumulated in the past, and the suspicion brought out by Uzo's persecution, made him feel uneasy anyway - being unable to see people from the reflection does not mean that no one is following him.

Even thinking about it from another perspective, the other party may be a specially trained person, so when that person is following, not only is he always in a position where he can quickly hide, but he also specifically avoids the people who may be hit by the reflection. Angle... In short, the more you don't find someone following you, the more vigilant you should be.

   Thinking that there might be an invisible and terrifying opponent behind him, Okiya Subaru broke out in a cold sweat.

   This familiar oppressive feeling made him reach into his pocket and reach for the phone, instinctively wanting to blind type a string of messages like "Uzo wants me!" to Akai Shuichi for help.

  However, the slightly cool touch of the phone made Okiya Subaru quickly regain his senses, and sighed somewhat sadly.

  —The reliable Mr. Akai is already a thing of the past.

   Now what he should look for seems to be that terrible new boss.

  Thinking of this, Okiya Subaru took a deep breath, selected his words, and typed carefully: [After I came out of the bar, I felt as if someone was following me. ]

   After all, there is too little known information now, and he is typing blindly with his hand in his pocket. He didn't write too much, just left the key information, and then pressed send.
