Conan's Corpse Picker
Page 207
Hattori Heiji just felt the name "Yesai San" sound familiar, when he saw the expressions of all the passengers in the restaurant changed, some were panicked, some were complicated, and some hated.
The detective radar alerted Hattori Heiji and Conan: "... Ye Caisan?"
The short-haired woman sitting nearby looked at them, smiled lightly, and said with reminiscence: "He is a criminal genius known as the 'Shadow Planner'. He was also responsible for a 20 million bank robbery [-] years ago. The mastermind...after that case, he disappeared."
Not far away, Wu Tiangou hovered over the dining table, watching the scene seriously.
Jiang Xia didn't show up at dinner either.He didn't want his appearance to interfere with what was going to happen next, but he was a little curious about how far it had progressed, so he temporarily moved the vision and hearing of the main body to the ghost, and let the ghost float out to check the situation.
For Jiang Xia, apart from Hattori Heiji and Conan, everyone else in the restaurant was unfamiliar.However, he still used the characteristics of each person to match the real person with the character in the spoiler.
Chapter 321 Don't Knock on the Door Casually
The short-haired woman who spoke just now is actually Ye Caisan's daughter.She didn't believe Ye Caisan was dead.Suddenly saw the advertisement published by "Gu Dachuan" in the newspaper, so he boarded the boat to look for clues.
Listening to her science popularization, Hattori Heiji gradually got an impression of the "Shadow Planner". He remembered hearing about this person from Hattori Heizo a long time ago.
Almost at the same time, a man with frosty temples and deep nasolabial folds on the next table came back to his senses from the news that "Ye Caisan is on board". He stood up abruptly and asked the waiter sharply, "Where is Ye Caisan's room?" ?”
The waiter was taken aback: "...in Room 1."
Shimaji Samezaki pushed away the dining chair, turned and rushed to the guest room - he was the father of the bank employee who unfortunately died in the robbery, and he was also one of the policemen in charge of the case.
Today, it happens to be the 0th anniversary of the "[-] million bank robbery".If Ye Caisan can be caught before [-] o'clock, the gang can spit out the stolen money and pay some price for what happened back then.
Although Hattori Heiji and Conan were still a little dazed, they chased after him reflexively.
The waiter hesitated for a moment, followed uneasy.
As the four of them ran away in a mess, the group of people in the restaurant who were more or less related to "Ye Caisan" fell silent for a moment, lost the mood to eat, and soon dispersed.
Wu Tiangou, who was hanging in the air as a monitor, looked left and right, and soon floated towards Jiang Xia's room.
……
Room 1 was locked, and Shimaji Samezaki knocked for a long time, but no one responded.
The waiter opened the door with a spare key, and saw that the room was very empty, let alone people, not even luggage.
Shimaji Samezaki punched the door angrily, and then quickly ran away, ready to search for the ship.
Hattori Heiji and Conan had already figured out the prosecution period and wanted to help.
But before leaving, the two passed by Room 2 with the closed door next door, suddenly thought of something, and stopped at the same time.
The two looked at each other, and called the waiter who hadn't gone far: "Is anyone staying here?"
The waiter took out the registration book, looked at it, and nodded.Originally, at this time, he should have added "It's Mr. X", but he glanced at it and couldn't recognize the name of this person.
While the waiter was struggling to read, Hattori Heiji and Conan's attention had completely shifted to Room 2.
——Although there is a lot of noise from the sea, just now, Mr. Yuzaki was hammering the door and shouting in room 1 next door. The people in room 2 should be able to hear some movement, but now, the guests here But he doesn't care about the outside world...
Suspicious, very suspicious.
Having said that, the fact of not going to the restaurant for dinner itself can be regarded as a suspicious factor.
...Maybe the person living here will be the mysterious client?
Hattori Heiji thought of this, stopped and began to knock on the door.
His intuition told him that there might be extremely important information hidden behind the door.
He frowned and knocked for more than ten seconds, and when he was about to ask the waiter to help open the door, the door lock turned with a "click".
Hattori Heiji cheered up and looked towards the open door.
A second later, his confident smile froze on his face.
... After a lot of hard work, he actually knocked out a Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia seemed to have just woken up, with one hand arranging the uneven neckline, and the other resting on the doorknob.
Looking at each other, Hattori Heiji couldn't control his expression: "...Why are you here?!"
At the same time, he subconsciously began to find the answer for himself: after he told Conan about the entrustment, he never separated from Conan until he sailed, so it was not Conan who informed him.
In addition, Mao Lilan and Yuanshan and Ye can also be ruled out - if they were the two who informed, they must have boarded the boat together, but now, Jiang Xia is obviously the only one in the room.As for the other two passengers who were said to be resting in the room, one was Ye Caisan, and the number of the remaining one was wrong, it should not be the two of them.In this case……
Could it be that Jiang Xia also received the same anonymous entrustment letter.or……
Hattori Shizuka who met in the morning emerged in Hattori Heiji's mind. In order to prevent backstabs, he only told Hattori Shizuka about the commission he had received.
It won't be what he thinks...
Under Hattori Heiji's eyes gradually shaking, Jiang Xia looked at him, then at Conan who subconsciously hid by the door, and calmly said: "I saw the advertisement in the newspaper and thought it was very interesting, so I came over to take a look. "
Hattori Heiji was taken aback: "Newspaper?"
Jiang Xia was also startled: "You don't know?"
Seeing that Hattori Heiji was very confused, he raised his hand and took the bag hanging on the hanger next to him, found the newspaper with the advertisement in his backpack, and handed it to Hattori Heiji.
Hattori Heiji glanced at it, and his first reaction was a sigh of relief: Great, mom didn't betray him.
... Having said that, if you think about it carefully, my mother actually doesn't know Jiang Xia at all.Tsk, I have suffered too many backstabs, and my thinking has become inertial.
Hattori Heiji pressed his forehead to calm his expression.
Then he glanced at Jiang Xia who seemed to have just woken up, held the doorknob as if nothing had happened, and said while closing the door: "Well, it's actually nothing, you continue to sleep, we'll go first..."
"Knocking on the door was so urgent just now, what happened?" Jiang Xia also grabbed the edge of the door as if nothing had happened, preventing the door from closing. His eyes glanced over Hattori Heiji, and finally fell on Conan.
Hattori Heiji's gaze also turned to Conan.
Conan who received a double stare: "..."
He paused for a moment, and said in a chatty tone, "It seems that a wanted criminal has sneaked into the boat."
"That's it..." Jiang Xia straightened out the hair that was messed up when she hung up the phone just now, and walked out of the door under Hattori Heiji's slightly desperate eyes, "I can't sleep anyway, let me look for it with you."
Hattori Heiji looked at the back of Jiang Xia who naturally blended into the team: "..."
... He no longer knocks on doors in public.
After all, no one knows what creature will come out of the door.
……
Although Hattori Heiji has some complaints about Jiang Xia joining him and Kudo's two-person team.
But now that Jiang Xia is here, he knocked it out himself. In the end, Hattori Heiji could only learn the lesson from the bottom of his heart while telling Jiang Xia about the past, with his own opinion:
"I always feel that the passengers on this ship are very suspicious-no matter how famous a thief is, after 20 years, it shouldn't be so well-known, but just now, except for the two of us, all the other guests in the restaurant knew him, and they were very concerned about his behavior. Existence showed varying degrees of shock."
Jiang Xia nodded and signaled that he was listening: "That's why you came here, want to see that mysterious 'Ye Caisan', and help him arrest and bring him to justice by the way?"
Chapter 322
"Yes, and besides him, the other two...another passenger who didn't come to the restaurant is also suspicious. We asked the waiter on the way here, and he said that there is no food delivery service here. It is very unreasonable to hide in the room during dinner time. "
In all fairness, Conan actually felt that Jiang Xia was also suspicious.But thinking about it carefully, Jiang Xia seems to have a habit of leaning in any corner to catch up on sleep when he has free time, so he feels that Jiang Xia overslept and forgot dinner, which seems reasonable.
Jiang Xia murmured thoughtfully.
He knew that the three so-called "passengers resting in the cabin", one of them was "Ye Caisan" pretended to be "Ye Caisan", and the other was an anonymous puppet who had been disbanded. None of them existed, only Jiang Xia was a real creature.
Of course, these things cannot be said to the two detectives.
Jiang Xia and the two knocked on the door of Unknown's room, but no one opened it.They went back to the dining room.
In the dining room sat two robbers and a bank employee with a bomb on board.In addition, Ye Caisan's daughter was also there.
Jiang Xia's eyes stopped on the leg of the robber No. 1 Jingjing Dadao, and when he saw a fresh ghost there, he knew that the remaining kidnapper had been invited out by Jingjing Dadao to kill him.
The serial murder case has already begun, and Jiang Xia no longer has to worry about shocking Sadao Jingai with her appearance.
He looked at the murderous bank clerk again, and was about to choose a place closest to the murderous look to sit down. At this moment, Ye Caisan's daughter looked at them, holding a box of poker, and came over boredly: "Playing cards?"
Jiang Xia glanced at her and felt that her eyes were wandering and her attention was not very focused.
He took the poker from Isogai Nagisa's hand, and said casually, "You seem nervous?"
Hattori Heiji and Conan moved their ears, looked away from the side, and looked over at the same time.
Isogai laughed softly, and took out another box of poker from nowhere. She cut and shuffled the cards skillfully, and said in a slightly erratic voice: "Nervous? There is indeed a little bit. The sea is a scary place. Especially the dark sea at night, which can hide painful memories, disturbed futures, and even... corpses."
Such inexplicable and weird lines made the eyes of the two detectives looking at her gradually become sharper.
Which does not include Jiang Xia.
In his eyes, Isogai Nagisa is a rare person on board who is not murderous.Compared with other passengers who have their own thoughts, she just wants to board the ship to find someone——Ye Caisan has been missing so far, and although Isogai Nagisa always says that she lost her father, she still has a little hope in her heart.He felt that if it passed 0 o'clock and the prosecution period was over, if Ye Caisan was really on the boat, he should come out to meet her.
Jiang Xia withdrew her gaze, and also began to look forward to the arrival of 0:[-].
……
Isogai quickly shuffled the cards, and by the way called several other passengers in the restaurant, and a group of people gathered around to play poker.
Jiang Xia was distracted for a while by the murderous people around him, but fortunately, this had no effect on the game - Mao Lilan was not here today, and almost all the good cards were in his hands.
After playing for a few rounds, when he came back to his senses, Jiang Xia had already piled up a pile of jelly beans as chips.
The other people stared at him rather complicatedly.
Hattori counted the number of people playing cards together, looked at the messy pile of cards on the table, and couldn't help asking, "Have you been counting cards in your mind?"
Isogai held a handful of bad cards with her slender fingers. She sighed wearily, but she was a little envious: "This has nothing to do with mental arithmetic. The cards he holds can be played by anyone with this effect."
"No, I want to say that when shuffling the cards, did he count the position of each card..."
Hattori Heiji fell silent as he spoke, thinking that this speculation is not reasonable-Jiang Xia is not responsible for shuffling every card, and the order of drawing cards is also stipulated, so it is impossible to get a specific card in this way.
So Jiang Xia cheated?
Or is this guy actually a European Emperor?
... Cheating should not be possible, this is just a game for entertainment, but if it is the latter... Hattori Heiji suddenly realized: No wonder it is difficult to avoid him every time.Even if no one backstabs, they will always bump into Jiang Xia for various reasons.Wait, on the other hand, doesn't this mean that one's luck is particularly bad?
Hattori Heiji was lost in thought.
And gradually a little autistic.
