Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 788 Uzo candidates added

at this time. After listening to Jiang Xia's words, several police officers were watching the manhole cover in the alley, trying to extract traces from it.

  Mian Guanyi rushed to the front, raised his finger to a few police officers, and asked sharply, "What are you doing?!"

   Sato Miwako followed closely behind him. Just facing an elderly person, there is nowhere to start. Seeing Mian Guanyi running closer and closer, worried that he would destroy the evidence, he was planning to hold people back with all his heart. At this time, Koda Masao jumped out from nowhere, pressed Mian Guanyi against the wall, and looked at Jiang Xia: "Where is the body?!"

  Jiang Xia took a half step back, looked at the manhole cover under his feet, and recalled the details he just asked an enthusiastic passerby:

"According to what Mr. Mochida said just now, on the night of Miss Koda Sanae's disappearance, the road outside happened to be under construction, and a truck was parked at the entrance of the alley, blocking the view of the alley from the outside. Hard to find.

"Across the alley, there is a construction site on the other side. If Mr. Mianguan wants to hide the body, it is undoubtedly very convenient to bury it at the construction site next door. On this construction site, an apartment is being built. Once the body is hidden, When the apartment is completed, it will not be turned over for tens or even hundreds of years, and it is very safe.

"However, things were different from what he had planned - not long after the body was hidden, the construction of the apartment stopped. In this case, the place could be rebuilt at any time, and the murderer felt very uneasy, but because the location of the burial was relatively The edge may not be renovated, so he took a chance and didn't move the body immediately, but just kept staring at it with binoculars."

  Mian Guanyi's forehead jumped and stubbornly denied: "The construction site is locked, can I still carry the body over the wall! I don't have such a strong body at all, you are slandering!"

   "Don't change the subject." Sato Miwako glanced at him, "It's through the manhole cover." She remembered that Jiang Xia had been staring at the manhole cover, Mian Guanyi must have noticed it too, but he was still struggling.

  Mian Guanyi's mind went blank.

   "Block this alley, find someone to go down, and see if you can get to the construction site next door." Officer Sato knocked on the iron wall of the adjacent construction site, "Get evidence first after going down to minimize damage to the surrounding area."

  Takagi Shibu resignedly opened the manhole cover and started to climb down.

   Not long after, on the other side of the iron wall, there was a banging sound of metal crashing.

   Soon, a group of people heard Takagi Shibu shouting through the metal wall: "I can get here!"

  …

   The police quickly contacted everyone at the construction site.

   Opened the lock on the construction site, and the group entered inside. Start looking for bodies in the wide open space.

  Since the fast-forward has already started, it is better to fast-forward to the end.

Jiang Xia looked at the cosmos in the corner and pointed at it: "It may be here—Miss Koda's colleague distributed her a few cosmos seeds that day, if Miss Koda wrapped them in a paper bag, Put it in the pocket, the body is buried in the ground again..."

   Having said this, he sighed and did not continue.

   Okiya Subaru also looked at the cosmos and pushed his glasses.

Even if it was deliberately disguised, there would inevitably be some differences between the land that was turned over a month ago and the land that had just been turned over a few days ago - the day before yesterday, Uzo had just asked him to turn it over, and then it was like introducing materials. , showed him the body buried there.

And now, Okiya Subaru is worried that this will be seen by others: as the promoter of this case, although he has tried his best to be very natural, there are still some suspicious things, and what he is facing is A genius detective like Jiang Xia who can see through the script of a genius boss in an instant, in case these doubts are linked together...

   Fortunately, these fears did not come true.

  ——Okuda Masao, who was carrying a shovel, suddenly jumped out from an unknown corner, broke away from the police and rushed over to dig.

   Those problematic soils were quickly picked aside. It was already dark by this time, and the police did not notice anything wrong. Only the little boy with glasses who had been following Jiang Xia, because his height was relatively close to the mound, leaned over and glanced curiously, and grabbed a handful of soil and twisted it. Before he could do anything, he was taken away by the police and kept away The place where the corpse appeared.

   Okiya Subaru glanced at Conan. Although this child is very smart, no matter how smart a child is, he should not understand such a complicated matter... He breathed a sigh of relief and continued to stand by and watch.

  …

   Not long after, the field where the cosmos was located was carefully dug up, revealing the corpse below.

   On the other side, Sato Miwako has sent people back to the sewer to try to find possible bloodstains.

  Mian Guanyi looked at the corpse for a while, and then looked at the policemen who were busy at the manhole cover, and finally felt that the situation was over.

  ——Sanae Koda broke the back of his head at the time. When carrying the body, he was a little flustered and didn't cover it in time. The blood stained all the way from the villa to the sewer.

  Thinking of this, Mian Guanyi finally covered his heart, knelt down, struggled to sip a heart-saving pill, and then said regretfully:

   "I didn't mean to kill her. It's just that I lost all the stocks I bought from her, without exception.

"Although to me, this amount of money is nothing, but I always feel like I've been fooled - when selling, the **** woman looks like "this will definitely make a profit", and when it loses, it will only repeat Say 'there is risk in the stock market'. When she came to my house that day, I was very angry and asked her to compensate, but she kept bowing and apologizing, never talking about money, and showing no sincerity!

"That's why I said I was going to suspend cooperation with their company, and told her to get out of the way, and then I didn't want to talk to her anymore, so I went upstairs by myself... Who knew she would catch up after hearing this, and suddenly pulled me around the corner. her arm, let me think again. As soon as I struggled subconsciously, she rolled down the stairs. I panicked and had to…”

  …

  No one knew whether what he said was true or not.

   But the police did find bloodstains under the stairs of a house in Mianguanyi.

   Okiya Subaru watched this scene, and he calculated the algorithm in his mind - Mianguan Yoshiichi must be in prison for a long time.

   The task of "making Mian Guanyi disappear" was solved so secretly and easily, and the police didn't find any traces of the soil being turned over. Everything was perfect.

  Okiya Subaru: "..." It's just, for some reason, since the body was dug up, he always had the feeling that something was staring at him...

  Okiya Subaru touched his chin suspiciously, remembered the terrible corpse of the rotten woman, and silently put his hands together in his heart—maybe it was because he had dug up someone else’s grave earlier, which caused unhappiness, so he was targeted?
