Conan's Corpse Picker

...However, there is no need to be too vigilant. After all, although Wu Zuo is relatively famous, his qualifications are too young, and he still has no access to those who have a major impact on the organization.

And Uzo is different from other members who are not worried-although Uzo is not worried, at least he is very obedient.After this reminder, he should pay attention.

In addition, Gin felt that it would be a bit wasteful to allow Uzo to cast a net around like this.

So he looked at his schedule and typed a few times in his notebook.

Soon, Jiang Xia's phone vibrated, and an email was received.

He took the mobile phone attached to his ear to look a little further away, and found that the email was from Gin, and the content seemed to be a list.

Gin's voice came from the receiver again: "Your main task now is still to improve your reputation without exposing yourself, and get in touch with political leaders as soon as possible. But don't be too impatient, the speed of promotion is too fast, but it is easy suspicious.

"In addition, what I just sent to you is part of our recent assassination list. Read it within 5 minutes and remember it. If you still want to find those 'high-class people' to hone your skills, choose from these people."

Jiang Xia not very confidently agreed: "Okay..."

...Unless Conan is arrested and locked up, reducing the number of sharks is probably just a wishful thinking.

But let's get down first.Thinking about it carefully, there are actually not that many dead people related to the organization.

It's really not possible, at worst, send a notice to Gin before picking up ghosts.If it is someone who cannot die, you can bear the pain to save it, change to murderous aura, and gain some reputation by the way...

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xia cheered up and looked at the list sent by Qin Jiu.

There are a total of five people on this gin-screened list.

Tasks that are too confidential cannot be released in batches by email like this.

Therefore, although the list is full of prominent figures, apart from celebrities in the business world, there is only one unlucky programmer, and no politicians are selected.

After each person's name, there is a parenthesis with an approximate date written in it, which is the deadline for the assassination by visual inspection.

Jiang Xia glanced over and saw two familiar names.

... From this point of view, the current gin is no longer simply a high-end murderous production machine.He also unknowingly added a part-time job as a ghost boy.There are really not many such useful and affordable bosses.

Soon, the mail shreds itself.

A psychic's ability to control his thoughts is inherently strong, similar to having a memory store in his brain.

Although Jiang Xia was sleepy, she still remembered the list without difficulty.

He recalled the names of the two familiar people, and then thought about the cases related to the target in the original world line, and planned to go to the relevant places tomorrow to check the situation.

……

The next day, Jiang Xia ordered an average-quality ghost mint to replenish the energy that could not be replenished by sleeping, and then checked the relevant news.

——Yesterday, on the buffet list sent to him by Gin Jiu, there was a person named "Xu Shengyi".

According to Jiang Xia's false prophecy ability, Xu Shengyi may be targeted by a serial murderer.

Jiang Xia thought for a while, and first searched for news about another person named "Murakami Jo".

Then he found this prisoner, who would soon be released after serving his sentence.

Murakami was arrested by Kogoro Mori ten years ago. At that time, he said harshly that when he came out, he wanted to make Kogoro Mori look good.

But ten years have passed, Murakami has been thinking about his life in prison for a period of time, and now he has no intention of killing Mori Kogoro.

However, an old friend of Mori Kogoro, Hiroshi Sawaki, intends to use this past of Murakami to kill a group of people, and then push the blame on Murakami.

This superficial friend, Fairy Sawaki, is a gifted sommelier.Wine tasting is his career, but also the highest pursuit of his life.

However, some time ago, Sawaki Fair suddenly lost his sense of taste.The doctor said that the cause of this result may be trauma and pressure.

Sawaki just fell in love with a female celebrity who caused him a car accident, and several other people who put pressure on him.

Coincidentally, numbers can be extracted from the names of several targets.

After meeting Takeshi Murakami, Sawaki Fairy suddenly had an inspiration—he planned to attack in descending order from 13 to 1 according to the order of the playing cards, and hide several real targets behind this number sequence.

And Jiang Xia remembered that the "Xu Shengyi" on the list given by Qin Jiu happened to be one of Sawaki's fair goals, "Nine".

If everything develops according to the original world line, not only can the task be completed this time, but some ghosts can also be picked up.But now, the situation may change slightly...

Chapter 224 Number Sequence Takes Me

Jiang Xia thought for a moment, and decided to give it a try first.

As long as you are lucky enough and operate properly, you may not be able to accomplish what you want to do.

Jiang Xia remembers that in the original world line, the intersection of Xu Shengyi and Mouri Kogoro was that Mouri Kogoro helped Xu Shengyi find his lost cat.

He turned off the computer, came to Amuro Toru's detective agency, and looked through the cat diary and the appointment book hanging at the door.

However, Xu Shengyi's name did not appear in the column of the client, nor did there be other people with the surname Xu, such as Xu Shengyi's wife.

... I don't know if the cat is not lost,

In fact, it had already been lost, but Xu Shengyi did not go to him to check, but was influenced by the stubborn world line, and went to find Kogoro Mori.

After all, although Mori Kogoro's murder cases are now taken away by young people who don't speak martial arts, the Mori Detective Agency is still famous for finding all kinds of things.

Anyway, being idle is idle, Jiang Xia simply found a few new accessories that Yoko Kinoshita gave him, and took them as an excuse to go to the Maori Detective Agency to inquire about news.

Mori Kogoro is usually unkempt, and orders are piled up on the table.Jiang Xia glanced at it, and really saw Xu Shengyi's cat-finding commission in it.

The photo shows a ginger-yellow cat with a heart-shaped white fur on its side. The color and characteristics of the cat are very unique.

Looking at the photo, Jiang Xia felt that she had found the entry point for the case of Kogoro Mori.

——Judging from the completion of the remarks on the order form, Mori Kogoro has not been able to find the cat yet.

When it comes to finding cats, Jiang Xia happens to have a group of younger brothers who are exceptionally talented in this area.

If he can pick up this cat first and send the cat to Kogoro Mouri, when Kogoro Moori meets Xu Shengyi with the "nine" in his name in the future, he might be able to think of Jiang Xia by the way and learn from "Jiang" Remove a "two" and the like from ".

In this way, Jiang Xia can naturally participate in it.

Thinking of this, when Mori Kogoro was happily dismantling Yoko Kinoshita's not-for-sale items, Jiang Xia picked up the cat photo.

He hesitated, "This cat... I seem to have seen it somewhere."

Mori Kogoro was taken aback, and temporarily put aside his surroundings. He was more concerned about the client's entrustment: "Do you remember the exact location?"

Jiang Xia thought for a while: "It seems to be next to the Metropolitan Police Department."

This is a lie.

Jiang Xia has only seen a beautiful photo of this cat, which was on Kogoro Mouri's table a few seconds ago, and has never seen its real cat at all.

Jiang Xia would say this because she just wanted to pave the way for catching a cat in the future—it would be more reasonable to have seen a cat, paid attention to this commission, and then suddenly caught a cat and gave it to Mori Kogoro.

If you can't find the cat in the future, then of course it's okay. A cat like a creature that wanders around the world as soon as it goes out, it's very reasonable to see it once but not be able to catch it.

And if he catches it, without preparation, he gets a cat for no reason and sends it to Mori Kogoro, and then a few days later, the cat's owner is suddenly brutally murdered... I always feel that something is not right after thinking about it.

Jiang Xia evaluated himself objectively, and felt that he was not a flawless law-abiding citizen.

Therefore, some suspicious coincidences can be avoided, and it is best to avoid them as much as possible.Although there is nothing wrong with one or two incidents, this kind of thing is like a toxin accumulated in the body. If it accumulates too much, one day it will be on the verge of losing the horse.

Lost the vest of a good citizen, as long as there is no evidence, you can't get into the game.But that would be wary of the case attractors, and it would not be easy to pick up ghosts easily like now...

Kogoro Moori didn't think too much, he wrote down the place Jiang Xia said, and planned to look for it later.

……

Jiang Xia punched out the card at Mori Kogoro's office, got the information she wanted, and left quickly.

After leaving the Maori Detective Agency, Jiang Xia sent a group message to his younger brothers, asking them to pay more attention to the cat with the ? on the side.

At the same time, he stopped by Dr. A Li's house, intending to see if any fresh cats were sent over—in case a younger brother with extraordinary talents saw a cat that didn't look like a stray cat, he would catch it back Woolen cloth.

Unfortunately, Dr. A Li's house does not have the cat Jiang Xia was looking for.

But there is something he wants to eat.

Jiang Xia spent a meal at Hui Yuanai's place, and continued to urge the younger brother to find a cat.

He himself temporarily returned to the detective agency to deal with the fragmentary commissions squeezed during the trip to Mermaid Island.When I got home, I had to look up other cases that might happen in the near future—on the list sent by Qin Jiu, there was another name that Jiang Xia thought was familiar.

……

Just two days later, when Jiang Xia was looking at the materials at home, he suddenly received a message from Huang Mao.

——Huang Mao said that he saw the cat Jiang Xia was looking for on the balcony of an apartment building.

Jiang Xia quickly arrived at the place he said, and looked up.

This apartment has six floors in total, and the target beautiful cat is lying on the balcony railing of a certain family on the fourth floor, sleeping comfortably.

I don't know whether it was picked up by someone or it climbed up by itself.

However, most people should not put cats on semi-open balconies at will.Jiang Xia thinks it's more likely to be the latter.

The position on the fourth floor is not up or down, and it is not easy for humans to get a cat.

Jiang Xia looked around and found that it was quite quiet and there was no one there.

So he wanted to send his younger brother away, and he just made a large bird out of clay and caught the cat.

However, the younger brother had just left, and when Jiang Xia was about to hide aside and pinch the puppet, the ghosts suddenly reacted.

——There was murder in that house.

It's not strong, but it does exist.

Jiang Xia was startled.

After thinking for a while, he put away the puppet clay and walked into the apartment building.

This condo does not have unit doors.

Jiang Xia glanced at the mailbox on the first floor, compared with the room number he saw just now, and found that the resident of the house where the target cat was located was Naoki Uemura.

This name gave Jiang Xia a sense of familiarity.

In my impression, Uemura Naoki is a little famous football player.Not long ago, during a training session, his calf was accidentally kicked by his friend Hideo Akagi and fractured.

Uemura Naoki firmly believed that Akagi hero deliberately kicked and broke his right leg because he was worried about being overtaken by him.

So Uemura Naoki took advantage of his relationship with Akagi Hero to bring Akagi Hero’s younger brother back to his home to play during an important game, and faked the illusion that his brother was kidnapped, and anonymously sent a threatening letter to Akagi Hero, demanding Hero Akagi played match-fixing and deliberately lost the game.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia let the ghost float upstairs to check the situation.
