Conan's Corpse Picker

Mori Kogoro's car gradually drove into the deep forest and stopped in front of a suspension bridge.

It's winter right now, and it's just snowed heavily.Below the suspension bridge is a deep and wide valley with steep cliffs, and the bridge and rope handrails are covered with a thick layer of snow.

Jiang Xia stepped on the bridge with a few others. Amidst the creaking noise, he could faintly smell a faint smell of gasoline.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko were concentrating on chatting and didn't notice anything unusual.Conan happened to catch a cold and was wearing a huge mask, sneezing one after another.

Only Mori Kogoro felt something was wrong, he looked around suspiciously, raised his hand and slapped his nose: "Is there some strange smell?"

Jiang Xia tightened the scarf covering her mouth and nose as if nothing had happened, and answered Mao Lilan's words naturally, pretending that she was also concentrating on chatting.

Mori Kogoro just muttered casually at first, and didn't pay much attention to this matter.

Just when a gust of mountain wind blew past, the smell that had just gathered a little bit faded completely, he immediately forgot what he had just thought, followed the others, and walked quickly across the bridge.

……

Across the bridge stood a large pine tree with branches and leaves covered with snow.

A group of people walked through the jungle with poor vision, and after walking for a while, a large three-story villa appeared in front of them.

As a parent who came to "investigate", Kogoro Mori straightened his collar seriously, wanting to be the first to ring the doorbell to deter netizens who might harbor evil intentions.

However, just as he took a step, Suzuki Sonoko held him down mercilessly.

Suzuki Sonoko turned around and kept winking at Jiang Xia.

She signed up with the id of "Disciple of the Magic Messenger", so she felt that according to Mian Ji's general thinking, the first person to ring the doorbell now would be regarded as the "Disciple of the Magic Messenger", and the others would be "accompanying" A friend who came from the disciple of the Magic Messenger.

Suzuki Sonoko urged in a low voice with bright eyes, and added a reminder: "Don't forget my code name - 'Disciple of the Magic Envoy'!"

The code name... How old is he, why is he still so high school two, and the code name is so lengthy, it doesn't fit at all.Jiang Xia sighed faintly, stepped forward and rang the doorbell.

After more than ten seconds, a middle-aged man with a kind face appeared at the door.

He is one of the participants of the gathering of magician lovers and the owner of this villa, Huang Yize.

The moment the door opened, Jiang Xia quietly moved a little to the side, revealing Suzuki Sonoko and the others behind him.

Just when Jiang Xia reported the id of "Disciple of the Magic Envoy", and waiting for Huangyi to turn his attention to Suzuki Sonoko or Mao Lilan to expose her intention of wearing a vest, Huangyi stared at him in a daze.

Then the uncle said in surprise: "The disciple of the magic messenger...you are actually a man?! Judging by your usual words, you are completely a little girl."

"..." That's right, your feeling is not wrong at all.So quickly take a look behind me... Jiang Xia quietly backed away a little.

Huang Yi finally found out that there was someone else behind him.

He looked out, and when he saw two high school girls, he remembered something, and the smile on his face became weird.

Then he retracted his gaze, and looked at Jiang Xia up and down with a strange gaze that combined "this is a talent" and "this is a scum".

Jiang Xia: "...?"

Chapter 301 Don't Step On Multiple Boats Anymore

Jiang Xia was feeling that Huang Yize's reaction was a bit strange. At this time, another sister Hei Changzhi poked her head out of the door.

Kuroda Naoko pushed the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, and also looked at Jiang Xia with a look that "you can't look like you".

After a pause, she said with emotion: "You didn't exchange code names with Ms. Tanaka, did you—her 'Ikasama Boy' usually talks like a Showa tough guy, and your 'Disciple of the Magic Envoy' talks It's better than us...cough." She seemed to be unable to find the right words, so she gave Jiang Xia a look to let him understand.

Jiang Xia gradually felt that things were a little out of control. Although Ms. Hei Changzhi started with the format "You don't know how to ×××", everyone could hear that it was just a joke, but in fact, they seemed to have already decided that The "disciple of the magic envoy" who always speaks softly is Jiang Xia in front of her.

Not long after Sister Hei Changzhi finished speaking, the Miss Tanaka who was said to "talk like a tough guy" also came over after hearing the words.

She shook her head: "I didn't deliberately pretend to be a man. Everyone is used to speaking in a different way. It is definitely not accurate enough to judge men and women by tone of voice."

Naoko Kuroda suddenly thought of something because of this sentence, and nodded with deep sympathy: "Indeed. The disciple of the magic messenger at least told us clearly that he is a man. Compared with him, some people who deliberately pretend to be cute girls are the worst." beat."

As she said that, she looked at the curly-haired man behind her with a little disdain, and pointed at him: "I really thought this guy was a woman, and I discussed perfume and underwear brands with him before."

Hamano Toshino, who pretended to be a cute girl, sensed her anger, and quickly turned the point: "Haha, no matter how good I am, I'm often told, 'You talk like a boy'—it's still this magic apostle It's more natural to be a disciple. But it's no wonder, every day you mix with girls, and you have to bring two girlfriends when you come to a netizen party, so your tone will inevitably be assimilated."

As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Xia sarcastically, and then at the two young girls behind him.

Originally, he wanted to ridicule, but as he spoke, tears of envy almost flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Suzuki Sonoko was following behind for fun, but when she heard these words, she paused slightly.

... Oh yes, she bragged before that she would bring her girlfriend over. Originally, "girlfriend" refers to Mao Lilan, but the plan was temporarily changed, and Jiang Xia came along with her.

Looking at it this way, it's like Jiang Xia brought two girlfriends to the appointment, and emmm also brought one of the girlfriends, her father.No wonder Huang Yi looked at Jiang Xia with that kind of eyes just now... Wait, this won't damage Jiang Xia's reputation, after all, he is also a famous detective...

Suzuki Sonoko looked around guiltily.

Then she was fortunate to find that no one in the room seemed to know Jiang Xia.This is normal, no matter how popular a celebrity is, it is impossible for everyone to know about it, not to mention that Jiang Xia's main business is not a celebrity, um... If this is the case, let's tell them the truth when the party is over!Don't spread weird reviews.

Until then, she wants to take this rare opportunity to have fun!

……

In the mountains in winter, the weather is very cold. When the door is opened so small for a while, a few people without coats at the door have already started to shiver.

Anyway, the new members had already been received, so they chatted and went back to the room.

The topic of gender on the forum was quickly skipped, and everyone acquiesced that Jiang Xia was the disciple of the magic apostle.

Jiang Xia subconsciously moved her hands towards their backs, are these people really from the world of Ke Xue, a little skeptical!

No one heard the hatred in his heart.

Jiang Xia sighed and silently entered the room with the others.That's right, I haven't been addicted to the Internet for too long, and I have forgotten such a basic thing. No matter what happens online, the offline appearance will always prevail in the end.Careless...

After Suzuki Sonoko had a solution, he felt relieved again, and happily entered the house with Mao Lilan on his arm. ,

While no one else was paying attention, she secretly mouthed Jiang Xia: Wonderful.

Saying that gave a happy thumbs up?

Jiang Xia: "..."

Forget it, as long as you are happy.

Fortunately, he didn't know the details of the forum's previous exchanges. When this group of people talked about the content of the forum, the vest still had to go back to Suzuki Sonoko...

……

Suzuki Sonoko didn't know that her teammates who were betrayed by her were secretly planning to betray her.

After entering the door, she hung up her coat and began to look around in the living room, trying to find where the "red herring" who had turned from her netizen to her pen pal was.

Several people in the living room each told her their id, and there were no red herrings among them.

Suzuki Sonoko became more and more curious, and felt embarrassed to ask in front of Jiang Xia. After all, her current identity is the "girlfriend" who followed Jiang Xia to an offline party... Hehe, how embarrassing... Ah no, the point now is Red herring... Suzuki Sonoko's mind kept jumping left and right.

While dancing, a fat man with a kind face came down the stairs.

The man has a fat body, small eyes, a big nose, and a round face. Although he looks like a talkative person, he definitely can't touch the "ideal handsome guy" in Suzuki Sonoko's mind.

Suzuki Sonoko looked over subconsciously, stayed for a second, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart-this, could this be a red herring? !

No, no, there are still two other people who have not arrived, namely the "Escape King" who speaks very badly, and the "Shadow Mage" who has a somewhat gloomy feeling. According to the probability, the person who came down must be...

"Hi, I'm a red herring."

Fatty opened his mouth with a smile. He looked up and down Suzuki Sonoko, who seemed to have been struck by lightning, and understood: "Are you the disciple of the 'Magic Envoy'? Haha, she is indeed a cute girl."

Sonoko Suzuki: "..." %&#*@

When Suzuki Sonoko was screaming crazily, Jiang Xia looked past her and looked at the "red herring".

Although there was no obvious flaw on the outside, he still knew through the spoiler that this was Kidd, um, it was a rare disguised version of men's clothing.

At present, Kidd has not stolen anything, and there is no energy core on his body, so the ghosts did not recognize him.Therefore, they are not interested in this fresh red herring at all. Instead, they all gather next to Takahisa Tanaka who "talks like a tough guy" and play with her murderous aura.

In addition to the murderous look, Tanaka Takahisa also held a rather fresh shikigami on his lap.

The shikigami, who was just born, was frightened by the oni who approached like a bully, and clung to the murderer's leg, looking like he wanted to bury his head in it.

It seems that she has already killed someone before coming here... Jiang Xia's eyes paused on her leg, and then quickly moved away.

After Kidd greeted Suzuki Sonoko, he found that the corners of her eyes were twitching and she couldn't organize her words, so she chuckled inwardly for a while, and then began to look at other people.

Looking at it this way, he suddenly found that the boy facing him behind Suzuki Sonoko looked familiar... Wait, isn't this the famous detective who solved the case quickly? !

Chapter 302

Kidd was slightly taken aback.

What he was most worried about today was that Wu Tiangou would follow him secretly, causing a series of unforeseen chaos, and even arresting someone... Unexpectedly, although Brother Tiangou thoughtfully did not show up, another troublesome person came.

Kidd was thinking about this in his heart, when he suddenly saw that Jiang Xia seemed to be aware of his scrutiny, and turned to look at him.

As soon as the eyes of the two sides met, Kidd immediately reacted. He continued to maintain a kind smile that belonged to a red herring, and imitated the attitude of others and asked, "This is..."

Kuroda Naoko came over again at some point, pushed her glasses, and gave a narrow smile: "That's the 'disciple of the magic messenger' who always chats with you."

"...The disciple of the magic messenger? He?!" Kidd was startled.

... Isn't the disciple of the magic messenger a girl?Could it be that his previous judgment was wrong, the words "disciple of the magic messenger" always have a sense of awkwardness, not because the girl is pretending to be a boy, but because the man is trying to pretend to be a girl? ?

Thinking of this, Kidd suddenly remembered one thing - "The Disciple of the Magic Envoy" once wrote to ask him for his name, and at that time he reported "Doi Tucker Tree".

... If the recipient is Jiang Xia pretending to be a cute girl, according to the speed at which this detective cracked the notice letter before, he must have reassembled the message of "Kidd the Strange Thief" by now.So why does Jiang Xia continue to pretend to be a girl who admires him?What is this detective up to? !

The words "fishing!" flashed through Kidd's mind instantly.

He secretly listened to the movement around him, worried that a police helicopter suddenly descended from the sky at this moment, and worried that the police would come down from Jiang Xia's prompt to make a move to invite you into the urn... But there was nothing, there were only some faint sounds of the mountain wind whistling outside.

All kinds of thoughts flashed in Kidd's mind for a short time, and soon returned to calm.Because he suddenly remembered that he didn't come here to steal anything today, and he didn't have any hard evidence on him that could prove that he was a monster thief. Even if the police came, he would be right...

Just when Kidd was observing Jiang Xia nervously.

Beside, Sonoko Suzuki was also observing the Doi Tucker tree.

Her expression as if struck by lightning just now had also turned into a smirk when she saw Doi Takshu's bewildered look.Sure enough, online dating is untrustworthy, but luckily I brought Jiang Xia here this time!Is this the legendary good man is rewarded...

Mao Lilan vaguely felt that "Doi Tucker Tree" was looking at Jiang Xia with unfriendly eyes. She was about to ask tactfully what was going on, but suddenly saw Suzuki Sonoko approaching Jiang Xia, and then stared at Jiang Xia intently. look from behind.

Mao Lilan was immediately attracted, and looked along suspiciously: "What's wrong?" Jiang Xia has something on his back?

Suzuki Sonoko let out a breath of joy, covered her eyes exaggeratedly, and whispered, "Ah, the eyes are much more comfortable."

Mao Lilan: "..."
