Conan's Corpse Picker

Buzz—a long hum, Hattori Heiji turned his head stiffly, staring at the railing that had been smashed into a dent in a daze, a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back instantly.

At the same time, he also saw Jingjing Sadao, who was holding an iron rod, trying to sneak up on him, and behind Jingjing Sadao, a stick that was so fast that it was almost only a phantom.

...This is a sneak attack that has just ended, and a sneak attack that is in progress now.

Facing the sneak attack, Hattori Heiji reflexively wanted to yell "Be careful" and push the attacker down by the way.But in the current scene, he felt that something was wrong.

In the end, Hattori Heiji just hesitated to speak as he watched the swinging stick that came from behind fall down, and hit heavily on the shoulder of Jingai Dadao.

A strong man weighing more than 200 kilograms seemed to be kicked by an elephant, rolled and fell to the side, lying on the deck, unable to get up for a while.

"I didn't expect to come out to blow the wind, and I would encounter such a thing... It seems that the murderer can be caught on the spot." Jiang Xia walked to the side of Jingjing Sadao, and took a look at Hattori Heiji, whose clothes were soaked in cold sweat and looked slightly embarrassed. "Sure enough, detective is a profession that is easy to be silenced. What did you see just now?"

"Kaniie was tied to the rope ladder outside for a long time, and he is already dead." Hattori Heiji was talking, when he suddenly caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye that Sadao Jingi reached into his arms, and took out a gun tremblingly.

He tensed up in an instant, and was about to remind, but before he opened his mouth, an extended swinging stick swung on Jingjing Dadao's wrist with a strong wind.The gun slid out along the deck, thumped against the wall, and stopped.

Jiang Xia glanced at the gun, and swung the stick again: "Go and hold it, it might be evidence, don't let it fall into the sea."

Hattori Heiji came back to his senses, ran over to pick up the gun through the handkerchief, took out another handkerchief, and checked it awkwardly through the handkerchief: "One bullet is missing, Gong... Conan picked up one in the computer room before. Bullet casings, listen to him, there's still blood on the ground there."

"So that's how it is." Jiang Xia raised his stick again, and knocked away the dagger that Jingjing Sadao had groped for again.

The dagger stuck to the ground along the track where the gun slid just now, and was held down by Hattori Heiji like picking up a gold coin, and they picked it up together and put it away.

At the same time, he also paused a little because of Jiang Xia's declaration, which was almost equivalent to "I understand everything".

Although now, he has roughly sorted out what happened on the ship, but many details are still blank.Even so, it was based on the fact that he and Conan exchanged a lot of information, and he searched around the ship for a long time.But Jiang Xia has been distracted in the dining room under the watchful eye and protection of the crew...

He looked at Jiang Xia with complicated emotions: "Have you deduced everything?"

"Not yet, I'm not in shape today."

Jiang Xia raised her hand and pressed her forehead lazily, then raised her swinging stick with an enthusiasm that didn't fit this state: "Fortunately, I caught a suspicious person. Ask him, and everything should be clear."

Hattori Heiji:"……"

Sadao Jingi was also stunned for a moment, "wait a minute, asking questions with a stick, isn't that what a detective should do.

He suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart, struggling to get up: "I didn't kill anyone! It was because I received a threatening letter earlier that someone said they were going to attack me, so I took the iron rod to defend myself. I attacked him because I just now Walking over, I suddenly saw a dark figure, I suspected that someone was going to kill me, so I hit him first... I was overreacting, but I didn't kill it—oh!"

Chapter 325 The Witch with Thousand Faces

Jiang Xia knocked Jingjing Dingxiong on the head with a stick, knocked the sitting person over again, and then skillfully entered the knocking process.

Hattori Heiji was standing next to him holding a gun, probably because he had been brainwashed by Hattori Heizo for a long time. When he saw Jiang Xia making such a move beyond his common sense, his first reaction was "to learn".

A second later, Hattori Heiji snapped back to his senses.If he really did something like torture to extract a confession, his dad could wring his head off.Heh, if Dad saw this scene, he might leave the backstab camp... In other words, why hasn't anyone reported Jiang Xia's habit so far?For a celebrity, this is a black spot.

Hattori Heiji silently condemned the professionalism of the media people, but he didn't record a small video to expose Jiang Xia's thoughts.

Anyway, Jiang Xiagang saved him from a headshot in the back.And Hattori Heiji acted on his own conscience, thinking that if he really did that, he would be like a villain who can't compare to Jiang Xia and destroy people... It's too tasteless, and he can't do this.

At the same time, in the cabin on the other side, Conan, who was looking around for news, vaguely heard a scream.

He was startled, and walked around subconsciously, and found that when he came to the door, the screams became clearer.

The rhythm of this scream sounds so familiar...

With a twitch in the corner of Conan's eyes, he quickly ran over following the sound.

As soon as he got out of the cabin, he saw Jiang Xia was beating people very intently with a stick in his hand.

Hattori Heiji held a dagger and a gun, standing a few meters away, looking like he wanted to stop it but was unable to do so.

Conan: "..."

You are going to hold him back, why are you just watching!

……

In the end, Sadao Jingi revealed a little bit of news.

He admitted that he was the robber back then, and also said that he had killed an accomplice before, but he firmly refused to admit that he had killed Kanie for a long time.

Others also heard the sound and came to the deck one after another.Jiang Xia stopped before they appeared.Put away the swinging stick, and listen to others continue to question Sadao Jingai.

After Sadao Jingi got out of the state of being beaten, his mouth became tight again.Working overtime in the middle of the night was very windy, and several people couldn't ask questions, so they had to decide to go back to the cabin first.

Minoru Ebina went to the side of Sadao Kejing who couldn't stand up, and bent down to help him.Sadao Kuwai held out his hand with a grin.As soon as he sat up, Minoru Ebina suddenly swung his other hand, and the sharp and glowing kitchen knife was firmly nailed into the mouth of Jingjing Sadao.

"You really didn't kill Kanie." Ebina Minoru pulled out the knife vigorously, staring at the blood splashed on his body, his hands trembled slightly, but a slightly distorted smile slowly appeared on his face, "——Because it was me Kill it, hahaha!"

Twenty years ago, the female employee who was involved in a bank robbery and unfortunately died was the girlfriend of Ebino Minoru.Over the years, Ebina Minoru has been tracking down the whereabouts of the robbers.

He wanted to stab himself in the chest with a backhand after killing the last enemy just now.But now, looking at Sadao Jingai's face, he suddenly felt that his life had meaning again.

……

Everyone on board pieced together the information they possessed, and barely pieced together the cause and effect of the "Guchuan University" quiz event.

In the morning of the next day, Jiang Xia finished the notes, and left the police station with some newly picked up shikigami and murderous aura.

He walked back to the detective office not far away along the not-so-busy street. When he entered the door, he took out a few copies of today's morning newspaper from the mailbox.

Originally wanted to find out about Ye Caisan's related incidents and see what the media said, but when he turned the page, Jiang Xia saw a fairly familiar name from a newspaper.

——Chris Wynyard took a temporary rest from the shadows to recuperate.

...Chris Wynyard?

Isn't this Belmode, an employee of the winery, a well-known relational householder and a counter-returner, known as the Witch with Thousand Faces... Although this title is realistic, it is really a secondary school student, and I don't know who came up with it... …

Jiang Xia quickly withdrew her scattered thoughts.

Calculating the time, this news means that Belmode is about to come to Japan.

This made Jiang Xia look forward to it—Bermode seems to have always wanted to kill Xueli, and usually casually kills passers-by, tricks teammates, etc... Such a person should have a lot of murderous intent.I hope that there will be as much overflowing as gin, and mass production will be stable.

At the same time, in contrast, Belmode will definitely bring some troubles.

Jiang Xia remembered that last year, when Mao Lilan and the high school student Kudo Shinichi went to the United States, they once rescued Belmode who was dressed as a murderer and was being chased by the FBI.Before Kudo Shinichi left, he poured Belmode a bowl of warm chicken soup.

So now, Belmode is closer to Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi than his mother, and can do almost anything for them.

Under this premise, Jiang Xia examined himself rationally again:

Classmates of Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan, they often go out to pick up ghosts with the two of them; they are very close to Kudo Shinichi's family, and not far from Mao Lilan's house; they have a "possessed by the dead soul of Kudo Shinichi" inexplicably hanging on their bodies Tag of……

And these, together with the identity of "Uzo", a winery used to swindle ghosts, were combined and placed in front of Belmode. In her eyes, "Jiang Xia" was probably like a flower beside Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi. Time bomb.

Jiang Xia: "..." I feel a little dangerous.

...However, Gin seems to have said that he wants to keep the identity of "Uzo" as secret as possible, so he probably won't take the initiative to expose this matter.

And Belmode has always liked to be alone, except for occasionally finding some tool people in the organization, he doesn't have much interaction with other people.In short, she may not be able to hear the news about "Jiangxia=Uzuo".

Of course, Jiang Xia thought cautiously: Considering that Qin Jiu was unlucky, he might be dragged down by this model worker boss, so he should also make some preparations in advance for Belmode's arrival, so as not to be regarded as a bad person who brought his own children down. Make troubles all the time, and even kill secretly.

……

After returning home, Jiang Xia searched for information about "Chris Wynyard", dragged out a photo, and zoomed in.

Then he beckoned to Piao Piao's parent ghost who was accompanying Xiao Bai to change the script: "Come."

The parents were startled, and happily moved towards Jiang Xia's legs.The mermaid lay on the edge of the fish tank and looked at it for two seconds. It seemed that it was quite displeased with this slow moving speed. It swam out to pick up the ghost, floated to Jiang Xia's hand and threw the ghost away, and then returned to the fish tank with a deep reputation. .

Jiang Xia conveniently carried the ghost to the table.

Then, facing the gaze of his parents, Ghost Inquiry, he raised his hand and clicked on the photo of Belmode on the screen: "Whenever you meet this person in the future, immediately hug me tightly. The same goes for people with disguises on their faces. "

Chapter 326 N ways to deal with Belmode

For ghosts, disguises are actually not easy to distinguish, you have to look closely at your face to be sure.

However, Jiang Xia speculates that even if Belmode's murderous aura is not as good as that of gin, it should not be less. This can be used as a basis for accurately identifying her in the future.It's just that before I actually meet her, I can only use photos as the most basic criterion for judging.

The parental ghost was asked to hug Belmode's leg when he saw him, because some psychics are born with aura.Some can attract a certain type of creature, increasing their favorability, while others can annoy them.The generation principle and specific mode of action of the aura are considered unsolved mysteries even for very unscientific psychics, and their laws can only be vaguely grasped.

According to Jiang Xia's observation, he felt that his aura undoubtedly belonged to the type that enhances goodwill and makes people feel close.And Belmode seems to happen to be the type of person who is more likely to be influenced by him.

Usually, if Jiang Xia doesn't take the initiative to adjust, the effect of this kind of aura will be negligible, and there is not much difference compared with normal people, at most, he will receive a little preferential treatment for it.

But if he deliberately magnifies this ability, the effect will gradually be revealed.

And according to Jiang Xia's previous observation, the pair of magical ghosts, the parents and ghosts, had an even more outrageous bonus to his aura.

Although Jiang Xia usually doesn't like to use this method, but when encountering Belmode, this skill, which is not considered a skill, may have a miraculous effect, at least it will not be assassinated on the spot by Belmode, who is protecting the calf.

In Jiang Xia's view, there are roughly three ways to deal with Belmode.

One is to threaten her with Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi.These two students are undoubtedly Belmode's weakness, and it is much easier for Jiang Xia to contact them than Belmode wants to contact them.

However, catching people's weaknesses is a relatively risky thing - in this world, even ordinary people will immediately come up with the idea of ​​"killing people to silence them" when they are threatened, and then formulate a bunch of fancy killing plans, not to mention It's Belmode.

In addition, a wicked person must have the appearance of a wicked person.Jiang Xia herself has no intention of doing anything to the two classmates, and will even save them at a critical moment.If Belmod found out about this, it would be too embarrassing for Jiang Xia to threaten her with Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi.

So Jiang Xia felt that he could try to turn enemies into friends first, or at least passers-by. After all, in some matters, his and Belmode's goals did not conflict.

And if both methods fail, and Belmode is determined to get rid of him, a winery worker who is very close to Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan, then Jiang Xia can only pick up one more Belmode ghost, or Waiting to be killed by Belmode, and then snatch her body...

Of course, grabbing the body is the last option - although Belmode is good-looking, rich, and has a high social status, her gender does not meet Jiang Xia's requirements for picking up the body.

That is to say, if you really get to that point, after using Belmode's identity to steal away the medicine and money from the winery, you have to find a suitable handsome guy to kill yourself... There are many risks in this process , will also lose some ghosts.

... Anyway, since there are so many solutions, it means that the problem is not big.

After his parents had memorized Belmode's appearance, Jiang Xia quickly put aside his troubles and focused on looking through the appointment book brought back from the office, looking for familiar names on it.

……

After seeing the report of Belmode's death, Jiang Xia looked forward to it for a few days, but found that his life hadn't changed much.

Disappointed, he could only preliminarily guess that Belmode had no intersection with his work, or that Belmode hadn't arrived in Japan yet.

Until a week later, Jiang Xia was invited to a design firm to discuss matters. By the way, after spoiling a case, he suddenly received news from Gin:

[11::30 noon the day after tomorrow, North Gate of Kuwano Complex Building]

Jiang Xia took out her mobile phone behind the policeman, read the text message, and said "received".

Then I began to speculate that this is a new mission, or it is related to Belmode-although Uzo and Belmode have no intersection in terms of organization, if Belmode also sees the "Revenant of Kudo Shinichi" news, and knowing that Jiang Xia = Wu Zuo, then she might indeed take the initiative to create a chance to meet Jiang Xia.
