Conan’s Corpse Picker

Saijiao Naoya stared at the back of President Saeki, still with the same arrogant expression of winning. He snorted coldly, staggered a few meters away from the president, and left.

When passing by Jiang Xia, as he took his hand out of his pocket, a photo happened to float out and landed on the ground.

Conan picked it up and turned it over curiously.

Jiang Xia also looked at it, and saw two familiar people in the photo - the splashy "little pretty face" holding President Saeki's shoulders, and the two people were walking out of a love hotel intimately.

After reading it, Jiang Xia poked Conan: "Go and give it back to him."

　　Conan was a little embarrassed when he broke into this kind of thing: "Why don't you go?"

Jiang Xia: "Children don't know much, so it's okay if you pick up this kind of photo. But if I pick it up, someone might come to silence me."

 Conan: “…” There are so many murder cases, you just don’t want to embarrass yourself.

But it was indeed him who picked up the photo, and Conan had been a primary school student for so many years and had been in the women's bathroom, so he had developed his shame long ago.

He didn't shirk any more at that moment, and ran forward with this innocent photo on his face innocently: "Uncle, your things have fallen off!"

Saijiao Naoya actually ignored him.

It wasn't until Conan caught up with him, jumped up and patted his arm that Saijo Naoya came back to his senses and looked down at him.

 Seeing the photo in Conan's hand, Saijo Naoya finally understood.

He took off the training earplugs he had just put on, took the photo, and flicked it with his fingers frivolously: "Thanks, this is my cash cow. Fortunately, I didn't lose it."

Conan: "..." What is this guy muttering in front of a pure first-year elementary school student? He is really ruining the future of Tokyo.

 Played with the equipment for a while, had another meal, and even went to see a movie. However, nothing happened, and the ordinary day ended like this.

Judy still didn't come back to her senses until everyone said goodbye after dinner and went back to their homes.

 Judy: “…” is it over?

So simple?

 What about the murder case?

 After feeling dazed, joy surged in her heart: Although it was possible that "that person" didn't pay attention to her for the time being, there was another possibility - her random travel plan worked!

So when she contacted Akai Shuichi again, Judy's voice became lighter: "I didn't expect it to be really effective! That guy really needs a lot of lead time if he wants to commit a murder - if one day we really If you face him head-on, then as long as you pay attention to the places you must pass through, you can effectively avoid his attacks."

On the other side of the phone, Akai Shuichi was silent for some reason.

 Judy felt something was wrong: "...What's wrong?"

Hideichi Akai: "Just now when you were enjoying dessert at a nearby restaurant, a police car drove towards that club."

 Judy: “…”

Akai Shuichi continued to watch: "Now the police have sealed off the scene. The commander is a middle-aged man in a brown suit. He should be the police officer from the First Investigation Division."

 Judy: “…”

Akai Shuichi: "According to the police department's attention to Jiang Xia, you, a fellow traveler who spent the day with Jiang Xia, will definitely not be able to escape the police's sight - pack up and prepare to go back."

 The phone was hung up.

Hideichi Akai opened his notebook and flipped through several pages before turning to the place where he was going - not a single suspect in the first two cases had been ruled out, and now a new string had been recorded.

 Hideichi Akai: “…” When was the last time you had so much work piled up? It was so long ago that he almost forgot.   …

 Judy hung up the phone and glanced at the phone blankly.

She, how come her random plan just started...

Before I could start the long chanting in my head, my phone suddenly vibrated.

Judy was distracted and almost threw the thing in her hand ten meters away. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and grabbed the phone as soon as she let it go.

I turned it over and looked at the caller ID, and the two characters "Jiangxia" suddenly popped up.

 Judy answered the phone numbly.

"Teacher Judy?" Jiang Xia's voice came from the receiver, like a polite and good student who respects teachers. "That's it. I just received a call from the Mumu Police Department. He said that we went there during the day. There's something going on at the fitness club and we need to go back - are you free now?"

 Judy: “…” It’s so late and I don’t really want to be free.

 But now that I have come to Tokyo, I have to adapt to the rhythm of life here and become a roll king.

 Judy took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Then he quickly regained his composure and showed the optimistic spirit that foreigners should pretend to have: "Oh, of course! I'll go back right away!"

 …

As soon as Jiang Xia arrived at the door, she saw an acquaintance circling around the door.

Seeing Jiang Xia, the eyes of the police department brightened up: "Brother Jiang Xia—!"

 Much more enthusiastic than the previous two times.

Jiang Xia glanced at the hall and immediately understood: Tomorrow is the opening ceremony of this fitness club, and President Saeki held a celebration banquet tonight. The female president was somewhat influential in the local area, so there were several big shots at the banquet, as well as reporters who came to support her.

Everything was ready, but before the opening ceremony started, and before a few photos of the celebration banquet were taken, a team member broke in in horror, saying that a body was floating in the diving pool.

This next murder case, which was originally unremarkable, suddenly became a murder case that may have some impact.

"We have picked people up from the pool." Megure Police Department walked in with Jiang Xia while wiping the sweat from working overtime. "It is confirmed that the person who died is the ace player of this club, Saijo Naoya."

Not long after I walked out, there was chaos again behind me.

The police department was startled. Looking back, they saw Jiang Xia's friends and a new English teacher rushing over.

"It's this foreign teacher again..." Police Department Mu Mu touched his chin. Maybe it was because Judy's suspicion in the last throat-cutting case in the swimming pool was too deeply rooted in people's hearts. When he saw this foreign teacher again, he always felt a little suspicious.

But this case seems to have little to do with Judy.

The Mumu Police Department briefly put aside their prejudice and asked their subordinates to greet them in while continuing to lead Jiang Xia to the swimming pool.

Soon, we arrived at the diving pool we had visited during the day.

Jiang Xia pushed open the door and entered. When several policemen saw him, they immediately got out of the way and watched him expectantly as he walked to the body.

Beside the pool, a dark-skinned corpse fell to the ground - Saijo Naoya was wearing a swimming cap and covered in water. His arrogance disappeared along with his life. He was so quiet that Suzuki Sonoko took a few glances to recognize it: "This, Isn’t this the diving ace! Why did he die suddenly?”

Judy had mixed emotions: "..." During the day, she thought this person would die, but this person happened to be alive. Now she thought everything was fine, but the person died again...
