Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 790 Close the case and ask for a monthly ticket ヾ()

On the way, Conan whispered: "...I always think that person is a bit strange, although it seems that all his actions seem to have a reasonable explanation, but in combination, it is really a coincidence - it seems to be deliberately guiding us Discover the same murder case.

"Also, I don't know if it was my illusion. In the place where the body was buried, there is a piece of soil with slightly different colors. Unfortunately, Mr. Koda rushed too fast, and I didn't have time to distinguish whether it was an illusion of light and shadow or the truth. has a problem……"

  Haihara Ai has a different view.

   She has always been instinctively wary of strangers appearing around her.

——In the eyes of the organization, "Shirley" must have already fled far away, so the organization relaxed its search efforts in this area. In addition, there is also an anonymous president who provided information to Haiyuan Ai in advance, and even personally Help her escape... But even so, Haibara Ai hasn't escaped for too long after all, and her instinctive fear of the organization has not completely dissipated.

  Under this premise, she naturally observed Okiya Subaru seriously.

   Okiya Subaru... In Haibara Ai's view, he doesn't seem to have much organization.

  Even though she has been beside Jiang Xia for a long time, her sense of this aspect is a little dull, but even if you put this aside, just looking at the simple good or bad, Okiya Subaru didn't give her too much "evil" feeling.

"Since it looks like a coincidence, it may be just a coincidence - people who are under a lot of pressure are not surprised to do anything. And it is true that the closer they are to the dead end, the more they like to escape and take time off from work, such as indulging in cases and not writing papers. some type of."

  Ai Haibara remembered the way Subaru Okiya sat beside them while they were playing baseball and typing on the keyboard, a little sympathy flashed in his eyes:

   "In addition, it may also be that he accidentally discovered the body buried at the construction site before, but for some reason he did not dare to solve the case, so he pushed the process of solving the case around the corner.

  "—In short, I don't think you need to worry too much, there doesn't seem to be much malice in him.

"And for whatever reason, his purpose is to solve this case, which at least shows that he is not a bad guy - shouldn't you detectives and policemen appreciate this kind of enthusiastic citizens? Although his enthusiasm is too cautious a little..."

   "It also makes sense..."

  Conan said so, but I still feel that something is not right.

  Thinking for a moment, he remembered that there was a reference book on case solving next to him, he couldn't help raising his head and asked Jiang Xia, "What do you think?"

  ... This is not asking for an answer, he has also thought about it, and now he is just looking for a companion to confirm his conjecture...

"I don't know, there are two possibilities." After Jiang Xia finished speaking, as if he had remembered something, he frowned and whispered, "'I hope the case is solved', it is not necessarily a good person. After all, after the case is solved, the person who benefits It's not just the police and the victims..."

   Haibara Ai was startled and nervous. Jiang Xia actually said that... Could there really be a problem with Okiya Subaru?

   "Why do you think so?" Conan's eyes lit up, "You found something suspicious about him?"

   "...No, I don't have any contact with Subaru Okiya, I just remembered something else." Jiang Xia sighed softly, cut off the conversation skillfully, and acted as a riddleman.

   and sold a wave of Wuzuo, resolutely making a clear distinction with this cunning and insidious organization cadre - anyway, the current "wuzuo" is just a ghostly puppet. Taking a step back, even if one day in the future, the "Jiang Xia = Wu Zuo" matter is exposed, Conan and the others will only suspect that Wu Zuo's conscience found out that he wanted to reveal some news to the red party instead of the current sentence. As for the thought that Jiang Xia drove the vest overturned...

   "What else?" Conan raised his ears, and really began to ask.

   However, the essence of Riddler is that after speaking a sentence, he cuts off the topic in various ways and refuses to give the following.

   Jiang Xia has a spirit of riddles and did not answer.

   He glanced at his phone, then raised his hand and beckoned on the side of the road, stopping a taxi passing by.

   This time, even Haibara Ai was taken aback.

   In her impression, when Jiang Xia doesn't ride a motorcycle, he obviously prefers other spacious public transportation, such as subway trains and buses, rather than cars.

  But this time...

  Haihara Ai asked cautiously, suspiciously, "You have something to do, and are you in a hurry?"

  ...If the organization suddenly sends out a mission, then next, she can help Jiang Xia take away the troublesome problem of Conan, so that he has time to act alone.

   However, Jiang Xia just raised his hand and pressed his forehead, then sighed: "Maybe the temperature difference has been big these days, and I have a little cold. I'm not feeling well... Go back early."

"……Ok."

  The taxi stopped on the side of the road and three people got into the car.

  Conan remembered the topic that stopped abruptly just now, and wanted to ask more.

   But in the front row, Jiang Xia was already leaning against the car seat and closed his eyes, looking like he was in Do Not Disturb mode.

  Conan hesitated for a moment, but finally retreated under the increasingly fierce eyes of Haibara Ai, silently closed the mouth that he wanted to ask, and looked at the fast-swept scenery outside the window, thinking for himself.

  ... The contact between Jiang Xia and Okiya Subaru is really not that much, and many suspicious points have not been observed.

So compared to Subaru Okiya, it should be a later topic, which evoked his memories, and then suddenly began to be "uncomfortable" and refused to answer questions - when he went to Koda Sanae's company before, Jiang Xia was still very normal look.

   "..." So what was the "other thing" Jiang Xia remembered?

  Conan's mind began to turn like a book, rushing through all the cases that Jiang Xia had solved, trying to find out the parts that were similar to today's cases.

  …

   Jiang Xia didn't answer Haibara Ai's question directly.

   But the mini-scientist was right - he was in a hurry.

  ... After the main body "goes home", he has to leave secretly again, rush to follow Subaru Okiya, and try to find Shuichi Akai. Although now, the dry cat has wandered around Okiya Subaru with a puppet, Jiang Xia always felt that this cat was not very reliable.

   In short, these two days, Jiang Xia would occasionally wear a cat vest, go to the side of Okiya Subaru, and put something like a transmitter or bug along his claws.

Judging from the signal, at present, Subaru Okiya has not left the scene too far - he seems to have returned to the cafe near Mian Guanyi's family, and he doesn't know what to do. He left a good opportunity.

Of course, only relying on the transmitter and the eavesdropping device will not achieve a good tracking effect - Okiya Subaru has never lived an undercover life with eavesdropping devices flying around, and he does not deal much with detectives, so he lacks vigilance in this aspect. .

   But if he comes into contact with Shuichi Akai, Shuichi Akai is likely to find a problem.
