Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 36 Children, don't be afraid

   Without Jiang Xia's obstruction, Kazuto Kyosuke finally made the "legs upright" action with difficulty.

He was so excited that he wanted to wipe away tears, but before he could raise his hand, a huge force suddenly came from his back - plainclothes arrived and pressed him to the ground with all hands and feet, and then skillfully handcuffed, searched, and Pulled off his hat and mask.

   Kazuto Kyosuke struggled a bit.

   Then slowly stopped moving.

   He thought before that if his deeds were revealed and he was caught, he would definitely fight to the last second.

   However, at this time, when Kazuto Kyousuke found that the plainclothes were only controlling him and not hitting anyone, he burst into tears in an instant, and felt that the police comrades became friendly.

  …

   Jiang Xia was slightly startled when he saw that his murderous aura began to loosen.

   He originally thought that a person as tolerant and paranoid as Kazuto Kyousuke might have to wait until the police station, or even the court, to take away his murderous aura.

  ...I didn't expect him to be so impatient.

   It’s not hard to do it yourself.

   Of course, it could also be that Kazuto Kyosuke, as a decent man, was kicked and rolled around in the street, and he was severely beaten mentally.

   So it seems that it is also a good habit to love face...

   A car stopped on the side of the road. The window was covered with a very dark solar film, which was driven by plainclothes.

   Jiang Xia thoughtfully looked at Kyousuke Kazuto, who was loaded into the car by a plain clothes hanger, with a serene expression on his face, feeling that he had discovered a new way to hunt ghosts.

  Xiaobai grabbed a strand of murderous aura that had not yet completely fallen off, and also got into the car, carefully rolled up the murderous aura and put it away.

  The ambulance arrived quickly and took away the victim who was lying in the phone booth.

But Jiang Xia felt that it was too late - Kazuto Kyousuke used to be a surgeon, he knew very well how a shot could kill someone, so if he stabbed him a few times with an iron stick, he might be able to send someone on the road, not to mention at such a close distance. , fired two shots in a row face to face.

  What's more, just now, Jiang Xia saw Kazuto Kyosuke's legs, and gradually there was an extra leg shikigami.

   It's just that it's not very firm, and it can probably be torn off with the murderous aura.

   It's fine to leave this to Xiaobai who is skilled in business, and he doesn't need to worry about it.

   Jiang Xia withdrew his gaze towards Kazuto Kyousuke. At this moment, there were two plainclothes men in front of him.

  When the plainclothes were chasing people, they all heard the heart-piercing "Jiangxia!"

   They immediately realized that this young man who passed by and beat the murderer might be a relevant person in the case.

   Of course, they didn't think Jiang Xia was the bad guy, or the accomplices of Kazuto Kyousuke.

   One is that Jiang Xia's actions just now... looked like murder at first glance, but obviously they should be regarded as acts of righteousness and courage.

   In addition, there are four children next to Jiang Xia.

  When the plainclothes were chasing people, they could see clearly—when the gun-wielding murderer ran to this side, the children quickly hid behind Jiang Xia and seemed to trust him very much.

   A person who can be liked and trusted by so many children is not like a bad person.

  Thinking of this, the plainclothes looked at the unlucky children who were involved in the incident.

   found that they were huddled together like quails, afraid to speak, and plainclothes showed sympathy - poor children, must have been frightened by the murderer who shot in the street.

  Plainclothes A reached out and touched the children's heads, trying to comfort them.

   Plainclothes B looked at Jiang Xia: "You know that person just now?"

   Jiang Xia was silent for a while before whispering, "The voice is a little familiar, very similar to my attending doctor."

  Two plainclothes look at each other. Yes, Kazuto Kyousuke is indeed a doctor.

   It seems that the two do know each other.

  …

  The plainclothes came in a van, which was quite spacious, but it was not good for ordinary citizens and the murderer who wounded people with guns to crowd together.

   Fortunately, it was not far from the police station, so the uniforms left a person behind and asked him to accompany Jiang Xia and a few children to the police station.

  Conan is thoughtful all the way, and he hesitates.

   Jiang Xia's attending doctor turned out to be a murderer... He didn't expect this.

  No matter what disease is being treated, as long as the treatment cycle is long enough, doctors will gradually establish a bond with the patient, especially in the department of cardiotherapy... Could it be that Jiang Xia gradually discovered something was wrong during that process, so he never wanted to go to the hospital?

   However, judging from the fact that Jiang Xia stopped immediately when the doctor called, Jiang Xia didn't seem to dislike him very much either. Otherwise, don't say stop, why should you take the opportunity to make up a few more.

  Conan's father is a mystery novel writer after all, and Conan himself is also well-read and has a lot of brains.

  Thinking about it, his thinking was a little off, and he remembered the cases in novels and movies where psychiatrists first deceived patients' trust and then induced them to commit crimes.

   Shouldn’t…

  Conan was immediately alert and felt that the situation was serious. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it.

   Finally, he looked at Jiang Xia and sighed in vicissitudes.

  —Both parents died, the body was ill, and there was a murder case at every turn... Well, well, that doesn't count. In short, Jiang Xia could meet such a doctor with no medical ethics even if he went to see a doctor.

  Everyone grew up on the same street.

   Why is only Jiang Xia so miserable.

  …

   Jiang Xia is in a very good mood.

   Today, I went out the door, and I picked up a shikigami with legs, as well as the rare murderous mushroom soup base that he has coveted for a long time.

When    left the police station, Jiang Xia looked at the child next to him, and wanted to send a pennant to the juvenile detective team.

   The three children were stared at by him for a while, and after recovering, they whispered that they wanted to go to the park to play, making sure to be obedient and not bump into pedestrians passing by.

  Jiang Xia didn't understand why he wanted to report to himself for a while, but he didn't bother to ask, so he nodded.

  The three children pulled Conan onto him and ran away with a swish, and behind him were three little birds that left the cage and flew to the sky.

  …Well, there is still a feigned old bird who wants to turn back all the way, but tries to resist.
