Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 45 I'm not suspicious at all

   The next day, Jiang Xia originally wanted to continue the plan from last night - go to Marudenjiro's house, that is, the unscrupulous creditor's house who secretly sold the collateral to see the situation.

   However, there are still a few clients with appointments in the office, so Jiang Xia could only go to work for another day.

   In the afternoon, Jiang Xia closed the door and left the office after returning the two newly found cats to the owners.

   He continued the unfinished plan yesterday-following the address on the business card, looking for it all the way, and saw a detached house with a yard.

   This is Marudenjiro's house.

  The yard is quite big.

  Marudenjiro is very rich, but like most people in this world, he has no surveillance or security, and the difficulty of breaking in is as low as a walk.

  Jiang Xia first went around the nearby hill and overlooked the layout of the yard.

   After remembering the location, he put on his hat, mask, etc., lightly climbed over the wall, went in, and went straight to the warehouse on the side.

   Jiang Xia did not use puppets.

  Marudenjiro's family, the security force, used a puppet to kill a chicken with a knife.

   And although the puppet is very convenient, after it is used up, whether Jiang Xia himself or the ghost child, will be very tired.

   There are a lot of ghost mints on him, but he doesn't really take it, especially now that he has to raise two ghosts, and the recovery of Miyano Akemi's new skills is linked to murderous aura. It is better to save a little.

  Jiang Xia entered the warehouse, compared the photo of the pottery given to him by the client, and successfully found the target on the shelf.

   This is just a three-layer hollow structure of pottery. Jiang Xia opened it in the middle and threw in a black-tech transmitter.

  When the transmitter is fully charged, it can be used for nearly forty hours.

   Once the pottery is sold or moved, Jiang Xia can find it immediately.

   Next, as long as he comes over every two days and changes the transmitter, he can always keep track of the location of the porcelain. By the way, he can see if something has happened to this family. If something happens, he will pick up a ghost.

  …

   A few days later, when the signal on the receiver began to intermittent again, Jiang Xia came to Marudenjiro's house again and planned to replace the transmitter with a new one and take the original one back to charge.

   He walked around to the fence and lowered his hood, put on his mask and gloves, and jumped up to smash the hospital wall.

   As soon as he stuck his head out, he suddenly saw two people, a man and a woman, walking out of the side room.

   Among them, the short-haired woman just glanced over here and met Jiang Xia.

   However, because of the hood's occlusion, to be precise, this "look at each other" is one-sided.

  ——Jiang Xia saw the eyes of the short-haired woman, the police officer Sato.

   And Sato...

   She saw only a pair of silhouettes shrouded in shadow.

  Sato was stunned for 0.5 seconds, then shouted, "Who's there?!"

   said, she rushed over.

  Sato Police Flower made a sound, and a few people ran out of the room. Jiang Xia glanced at it and saw a bunch of police officers.

   Jiang Xia: "..."

   It was like when he was late, he climbed over the wall to enter the school, and as soon as he climbed up the wall, he saw the principal holding a teachers' meeting under the wall. This...

   Jiang Xia was a little embarrassed, let go and fell.

   Across the wall, Officer Sato could be heard shouting "Stop!".

   Jiang Xia thought about it and stopped.

  Illegal entry is indeed illegal. But in this world, such behavior is rarely pursued, especially if the perpetrator is a detective.

   In addition, strictly speaking, Jiang Xia has not yet entered the house today.

   He just illegally ripped off other people's walls.

   There's really no need to act like a perverted murderer and stage a life-threatening chase with the police.

   However, Sato obviously did not expect that when he shouted "stop", the suspicious person really stopped running.

   Jiang Xia stood at the base of the wall for two seconds, and suddenly felt a shadow fall over his head.

  He looked up and saw Sato lightly climbed up the wall, then without looking sideways, he passed over Jiangxia like a hurdle, and landed gracefully four or five meters away.

   followed closely, didn't stop for half a second, and rushed out along the street.

   Jiang Xia raised his hand towards her, and was about to call to stop her, but the person had already disappeared.

   Jiang Xia: "..."

   He silently put down his hand.

   At this time, a few small earth and stone particles fell beside him.

   Jiang Xia was startled and raised his head again.

   This time, he saw another subordinate of the Meguro Police Department - Takagi Shibu.

   Officer Takagi struggled to climb up the wall and was about to jump down.

   However, when he lowered his head, the "suspicious person" who was blocking his face was standing still at the base of the wall, and he was stunned.

   The two looked at each other silently for nearly half a minute.

  Takagi asked hesitantly: "...What are you standing here for?"

   The "suspicious person" also replied hesitantly: "Didn't you tell me to 'stop'?"

  Takagi: "..."

  Although...he actually wanted to ask why the suspicious person was ripping off the walls of other people's homes.

   However, the suspicious person didn't run away anyway, and his attitude was pretty good, so we can wait and talk about it.

   The most urgent task is to call back the police officer Sato who rushed to somewhere...

  Takagi sat on the wall, took out his phone, and dialed his beloved Sato-senpai.

  …

   Five minutes later, in the courtyard of Marudenjiro's house.

   In addition to the police, Jiang Xia also saw several acquaintances-Maolilan, Maori Kogoro, and Conan.

   Jiang Xia's target, Marudenjiro, happened to be the client of Kogoro Mouri.

   Jiang Xia took off his mask and put it back on immediately after Officer Sato confirmed it was him.

   Sato's reaction was so extreme just now, because this afternoon, there was a murder in this family.

  ——Marudenjiro was killed.

   Of course, she hadn't told Jiang Xia about this yet, so she planned to keep it as a backstop for the cliché.

   Although emotionally speaking, Officer Sato does not think Jiang Xia is the murderer.

   But whoever makes Jiang Xia suspicious.

  Sato held the pen and asked suspiciously, "Why do you want to block your face?"

  Jiang Xia pulled the mask up and the brim of the hat down, like a vampire scalded by the sun, weakly said: "Allergic to the sun."

  Sato: "...?"

   She originally thought Jiang Xia was bluffing her.

   But after thinking about it for a while, Sato suddenly realized that every time she saw Jiang Xia, it was either at night, indoors, or indoors at night... In short, she had never seen Jiang Xia in the sun.

Next to   , Conan was wearing a pair of dead fish eyes, very hesitant to say anything.

   He used to go to the doctor's house to play, and when he stood on the balcony on the second floor and looked out at Mihua Town, he often saw Jiang Xia carrying a deck chair and spreading the sun next door.

   But in the end, Conan swallowed the revelation.

   According to his judgment, Jiang Xia should not be the murderer.

  Conan is very clear that Kudo Shinichi is still alive and cannot possess Jiang Xia to help him solve the case.

   In other words, Jiang Xia's cases must have been solved by Jiang Xia himself. He is a very qualified high school detective.

  In this case, if Jiang Xia really killed people, he shouldn't have made this basic mistake of "returning to the crime scene to see the situation after killing people".

   Besides, when Conan was playing in the yard just now, he actually saw the suspect's feet from under the bushes.

  The man was wearing very serious trousers and leather shoes. It's completely different from Jiang Xia's dress.

  Conan then speculated that Jiang Xia would overturn the wall, probably because he received a commission-I heard that Jiang Xia was working part-time as a detective recently.

   He would use such a perfunctory excuse as "allergic to the sun", probably because Jiang Xia didn't know that there was a human life here, and didn't realize the seriousness of the matter.

   If things go on like this, if you make false testimony or become a suspect, you will be in trouble.

  Conan, relying on himself as a child, stretched his voice to remind:

   "I heard from Uncle Maori that the murderer was afraid of being seen when he committed the crime, so he liked to cover his face - did you really not kill that bald uncle?"

   Jiang Xia was startled at the right time and looked at Officer Sato: "What happened?"

  "..." Sato sighed, "It's nothing, it was a murder case."

   At this time, the Muki police department finally had enough of Mouri Kogoro's shocking reasoning.

   He pushed open the sliding door with a big head, looked over here, and then gestured towards Jiang Xia with a chubby hand, implying anticipation.

   The Mumu police department also heard about Jiang Xia climbing the wall and knew that he was suspicious.

   But suspicious is suspicious, which does not conflict with listening to Jiangxia's reasoning.

  After all, solving cases is all about evidence, and when detectives reasoned, no one asked them to prove their innocence first.

   Even, in order to prove their innocence, there are not a few major suspects who show reasoning on the spot.

  Compared with them, at least Jiangxia solved the case quickly and professionally...
