Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 1995 1995【Shirley has no conscience】

"ah-!"

The conductor lady happened to be standing at the very back. When the light came on, she suddenly saw a corpse hanging in front of her eyes. She let out a terrified scream.

Hui Yuan Ai turned to look over there: "..." He unexpectedly encountered another case.

But it's okay. Anyway, the purpose of coming out today is to enhance the relationship between Jiang Xia and the children - let the children see Jiang Xia's heroic appearance in solving the case, maybe they will change from fear to admiration for this detective?

With this thought, she turned to look at the three children.

 Then I found these children huddled together like quails again, muttering something in a low voice.

Haiyuan Ai was startled, then quietly walked closer out of curiosity and listened with open ears.

 Then I heard the content of the children’s argument:

"According to my experience, Brother Jiang Xia is the easiest to knock people when they encounter a case - don't eat your popcorn! The popcorn is too loud, what if it is regarded as disturbing the scene of the crime!"

Kojima Moto stopped talking, and Yoshida Ayumi didn't dare to continue sucking the Coca-Cola in her hands - the movie was so exciting just now, they forgot to eat, and they remembered halfway through that they had snacks in their hands, but they didn't eat much. Mouth, the case happened.

Although the corpse was horrific, the three primary school students from Didan Primary School were well-informed and had already seen more horrific corpses. At this time, it seems that brother Jiang Xia's matter should be solved first rather than the immobile corpse.

Yoshida Ayumi looked at the Coke in her hand and said with great reluctance: "Are we going to throw it away?"

"No way." Military advisor Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya carefully avoided every bad boy trap. "Wasting food is shameful, and it is also what bad boys will do."

 The two friends were completely at a loss: "What should we do?"

Although Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya is a little smarter than his two classmates, he is still only a 7-year-old child after all. After thinking for a moment, he hesitated and said, "How about we finish eating quietly without making any noise?"

Genta Kojima and Ayumi Yoshida looked at each other and nodded. They acted like thieves. One gently put the popcorn into his mouth and chewed it slowly. The other slowly opened the lid of the drink, quietly. He took a sip of Coke.

 Then he glanced at Jiang Xia in unison.

Jiang Xia is looking elsewhere. Aware of the sight here, he turned around and found several children looking at him, so he gave these case radars a friendly smile.

 The three children must have thought: Useful!

 When Jiang Xia looked away, they continued to eat secretly in this noise-free way.

Haibara Ai:"…"

 Suddenly I discovered that the children were also having a hard time.

 My conscience hurts a little.

But the problem is not big - where do the organization cadres come from?

 Continue next time.

Haihara Ai was thinking about it as she also opened the lid, secretly took a sip of Coke, and drank some popcorn.

—It’s not that I’m worried about being knocked down by Jiang Xia. Just do as the Romans do and blend in with the hapless team that is the Junior Detective Corps.

 …

 Not long after, Mumu Police Department arrived at the scene with two of his cadres.

A police cordon was set up outside some dilapidated movie theaters. This happened to be a commercial street, and there were many passers-by. When they discovered that there was a case, a circle of people immediately gathered around to watch the excitement.     The 2nd floor of the building opposite.

Maya Hashimoto picked up the coffee and took a sip as if nothing had happened. She also pretended to be watching the excitement and quietly looked through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the direction of the theater.

While looking around, I prayed secretly in my heart: "I am just an insignificant passer-by. I hope this case will end smoothly, and then a normal intermediary who is easy to talk to will deal with me."

 Don't get him involved.

 …

“The deceased Masaji Haruda, 43 years old, was the president of a nearby real estate club.” Officer Takagi skillfully reported the situation to the Megure Police Department.

The Mumu Police Department glanced at him and felt that this guy was looking more toward Jiang Xia when he was reading the information.

 …But it’s not a big problem. Anyway, I have to tell brother Jiang Xia sooner or later.

The Mu Mu Police Department didn’t take it to heart and turned to ask the director: “Did the dead Mr. Zhang Tian often come to this cinema before?”

　　The curator nodded: "He comes here almost every day recently. But he is not here to watch the movie, but to monitor the progress of the demolition here."

 Once the arrogant Haruta Masagi died, the saleswoman dared to tell the truth. She immediately added: "Actually, the demolition of this place hasn't even started yet. This guy didn't come to our theater for work at all, he just came to ridicule us."

The projectionist was also filled with indignation: "He was completely causing trouble for us and affecting our business. All the guests were driven away by him. Moreover, he always smoked in the theater, and always chose the last row to sit - right above there. It’s the projection window, and when the smoke drifts, the screen is blurred.”

The salesperson got angrier as he talked: "At first, our cinema was not full, but there were still half-time audiences. But since he set his sights on this place, the number of guests has become less and less, only single digits per show."

Jiang Xia also came over, listening to the clues and joining in the fun: "The images were blurred a few times today."

The curator nodded: "He also sat in the back and smoked today. I saw it."

Listening to the words, Mumu Police Department gradually felt that something was wrong: "I thought he hanged himself in your movie theater...but from what I heard, could it be that he was killed by someone else?"

  “!”

Everyone in the movie theater was startled, and then they stopped complaining about the deceased and changed their words: "It must have been suicide! That guy offended people every day. Maybe he had a mental breakdown after quarreling with someone, so he wanted to use his life to kill our only remaining guest. Drive them all away!”

Mumu Police Department: "..." Why did you go there long ago? Let's talk about it now.

No matter what, as a police officer, you have to investigate if you have any doubts - and there is such a big brother from Jiangxia next to him, whether it is suicide or homicide, he has no fear at all.

Megure Police Department raised his fat double chin, feeling proud that Tokyo had produced such an outstanding young man.

Of course, he should not forget the important things he had to do. He asked: "Approximately when did the deceased hang himself? I heard that you witnessed the scene?"

The projectionist thought for a while: "About the time when the elf was comforting Gomera, I saw a swaying shadow suddenly appeared outside the projection window. Because the projection window was very small and it was dark outside, I started I didn't see clearly what it was. Later, when I ran to the movie theater and the lights came on, I realized that someone had actually hung a body from the window."

The curator also nodded: "It was also at that time that I saw a shadow suddenly appeared on the screen, blocking the close-up of the elf."

The Mumu Police Department had forgotten about this series of movies, so they had to ask: "Approximately what time is it? Can you find it?"

A male college student appeared out of nowhere, pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said firmly: "It's 12:44 noon."
