Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 324 Lazy Tips

   After throwing the bomb bag, Jiang Xia turned around and saw Hai Lao Ming Ren staring straight at the sea, thumping to his knees as if he had been hit by a huge blow, and the murderous aura lingering on his body gradually drifted away.

   After more than ten seconds, a new murderous aura slowly rose from the retired social animal who had decided to blow up a boatload of people, and his serious face was slightly distorted.

  Jiang Xia leaned against the railing and said as if chatting, "You came to find those robbers back then."

   The word "robber" touched Eina Minoru's mind. His sluggish pupils zoomed slightly, retracted his gaze towards the sea, and turned to the black-clothed puppet in front of him whose hem was swaying with the sea breeze.

He heard her say softly: "Ye Caisan is already dead, the three remaining members of the gang are all on the boat now, one of them has become a charred corpse, the other is hung on the escalator outside, and the other is mixing with the crowd. Concentrate on acting—I mean Kashii. You can wait for the infighting to end, or you can do what you want.”

  …

   Hattori Heiji and Conan were still looking around the ship, sometimes arguing together, and sometimes acting separately.

   After a while, both sides have the basic idea of ​​​​forming, and only the last bit of verification is needed.

  Conan returns to the cabin and asks the crew where there is a good hiding place on the ship.

   Hattori Heiji is a practical school. He carried a borrowed searchlight and looked around for a place to hide.

After    searched all the cabins, finally, when he came to the edge of the deck shrouded in the dark night, as the searchlight shone down on the hull below, a figure suddenly appeared in the aperture.

   Hattori Heiji made a sudden movement and turned the flashlight back.

   Directly below, a man was tied to a soft ladder with the churning sea water under him.

  ——That person was Hisashi Kanie who had been missing for a while. However, it was completely different from what he had expected before, instead of actively hiding here, Kan Jiangjiu was tied to the ladder. In addition, there was a tight loop of rope around his neck, and the other end of the rope hung down, swaying gently as the body swayed.

   Hattori Heiji's gaze swept across Kanie Jiujiu's ferocious face, and his chest that no longer had ups and downs, his expression slightly stagnant.

  … This man is dead.

   The sudden increase in the amount of information caused him to fall into a brief confusion. The appearance of this corpse overturned most of his previous inferences, and by the way Conan's.

  ... Could it be that they asked Jiang Xia who was right just now, but Jiang Xia didn't say anything, not because he didn't figure it out, but because Jiang Xia thought they were both wrong?

   Hattori Heiji frowned and straightened out his thoughts.

At the same time, behind him, a tall figure approached secretly under the cover of the sound of the waves and the sea breeze, and raised the steel pipe in his hand—Sadao Kujii passed by just now, when he saw Hattori Heiji standing in this position, carrying a searchlight down. If you take a photo, you know that the detective knows too much and must not stay.

  …

   Hattori Heiji was concentrating on his thoughts, when a voice suddenly came from behind him, "Dodge!". The person who reminded them seemed to be running fast, and when the last sound came out, the sound source was already much closer.

   is Jiang Xia's voice... At the same time as this thought flashed through Hattori Heiji's mind, he moved to the side subconsciously.

   An iron rod rubbed his shoulders, and hit the railing with a strong wind.

  hum——With a long buzzing sound, Hattori Heiji turned his head stiffly, looking at the railing that had been smashed into a pit, and a layer of cold sweat instantly appeared behind him.

   At the same time, he also saw Jinguo Jingai who was holding an iron rod, trying to sneak attack on him, and behind Jingxiong Jingai, a stick that was almost only a shadow.

  ... This is a sneak attack that just ended, and a sneak attack that is now in progress.

   In the face of the sneak attack, Hattori Heiji reflexively wanted to shout "Be careful" and press the sneak attacker down by the way. But in the current scene, he felt that something was wrong.

  In the end, Hattori Heiji just watched the swinging stick that came from behind fall down and hit Kujirai on the shoulder.

   The 200-pound burly man was kicked by an elephant and rolled to the side. He lay on the deck and couldn't get up for a while.

"I didn't expect to come out to blow the wind, and I would encounter such a thing... It seems that the murderer can be caught on the spot." Jiang Xia walked to Jingxiong Jingjing, and took a look at Hattori Heiji, whose clothes were soaked in cold sweat and looked a little embarrassed, "Sure enough, a detective is a profession that is easy to be silenced. What did you see just now?"

   "Kanie Jiu was tied to the rope ladder outside, and is already dead." Hattori Heiji was speaking, and out of the corner of the light suddenly caught a glimpse of Kujii Dadao's hand, and he took out a gun tremblingly.

   He tensed up instantly, and was about to remind him, but before he opened his mouth, an elongated swinging stick held Li Feng and slammed into Jing Jing Dingxiong's wrist. The gun slid out along the deck, hit the wall with a thud, and stopped.

   Jiang Xia glanced at the gun, and once again raised the swinging stick: "Go and hold it, it might be evidence, don't let it fall into the sea."

Hattori Heiji regained his senses, ran over to pick up the gun through the handkerchief, took out another handkerchief, and checked it awkwardly through the handkerchief: "One missing bullet, Gong... Conan picked up one in the computer room before. Bullet casings, listen to him, there's blood on the ground there."

   "So it is." Jiang Xia raised his hand again and knocked the dagger that Kujii had found out again.

  The dagger moved along the track where the gun just slid on the ground, and was held down by Hattori Heiji as he picked up a gold coin, and picked it up and put it away together.

   At the same time, he was also slightly taken aback by Jiang Xia's statement, which was roughly equivalent to "I understand it all."

  Although now, he has roughly sorted out what happened on the ship, but many details are still blank. Even so, it was based on the fact that he and Conan exchanged a lot of information and searched everywhere in the ship for a long time. But Jiang Xia has been distracted in the dining room, under the watchful eyes and protection of the crew...

   He looked at Jiang Xia with mixed feelings: "You reasoned everything out?"

   "Not yet, not in the state today."

  Jiang Xia raised his hand and pressed his forehead, and raised his stick with enthusiasm that didn't match this state: "Fortunately, I caught a suspicious person. If you ask him, everything should be clear."

Hattori Heiji:"……"

  Kujii Dingxiong also stayed for a while, wait, ask questions with a stick, this is not what detectives should do.

He suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart, struggling to get up: "I didn't kill anyone! It was I who received a threatening letter before, someone said that they would attack me, so I took the iron bar to defend myself. I attacked him just now because of me. When I came over, I suddenly saw a dark figure, I suspected that someone was going to kill me, so I hit me first... I was overreacting, but I didn't kill—Ow!"
