Conan's Corpse Picker

After vigilantly entering the room, he found that the scene in the room was almost completely opposite to what he had imagined.

——There is no figure of Jiang Xia here at all. Instead, Belmode is sitting on the ground next to the bed in messy clothes. She holds a mobile phone in one hand, and the other hand is bound and handcuffed to the head of the bed by a mess of bandages.

This look of embarrassment made Amuro Toru's eyes light up.

However, before he went up to beat Belmod with a knife, and sent him to the police through one-stop service, Belmod looked up at him, and then said to the other side of the phone, "No, it's Bourbon."

Chapter 350 Belmode, You Are a Good Food

Toru Amuro took a closer look at the screen of Belmode's mobile phone, and found that he was indeed on the call, so he could only give up the idea just now with a little disappointment.

Although he didn't know why there was such a scene in the room, he realized that if he had come earlier, he might have caught a nice big fish.But in that case, Jiang Xia will also be suspected and tracked down by the organization... Tsk, if I knew that Belmode would overturn Jiang Xia so badly, I shouldn't have called Qin Jiu yesterday. It didn't help, and I got the information "Belmod and Jiang Xia are together" for nothing...

Toru Amuro didn't think that the current scene was caused by gin.

In his opinion, to Gin, Belmode is definitely more important than an ordinary member.So if Gin had come to find someone, Belmode's situation would not be as embarrassing as it is now, so there is only one truth-this is Jiang Xia's masterpiece.

...Why doesn't Jiang Xia handcuff her other hand as well, let the scourge of this organization starve to death here...or at least make her unable to make phone calls, so that he can manipulate and get people to the police station...Amuro I am deeply sorry.

In the bedroom, Belmode hung up the phone, Weisai looked at Toru Amuro warily.

She always felt that Bourbon didn't seem very friendly, and it even made her feel a little dangerous just now.

But after thinking about it, according to the information she found not long ago, Uzo is currently working part-time in the Bourbon store, and Bourbon, a lone wolf who is also said to be a mystic, finally recruited a convenient employee, but she was caught by her halfway. Take it away...Let's not talk about whether Wu Zuo is useful or not, but the fact that she provoked the people in the office is to embarrass Bourbon. It's normal for him to have such an attitude.

Belmode put down the phone, and continued to untie the bandage on his right hand that was knotted by Jiang Xia as if nothing had happened, while looking calmly at Toru Amuro: "You are late. He just left not long ago."

After a pause, she said casually again: "It's not a gentleman's demeanor to stand by and watch a lady's plight—it's already here, why don't you open the lock for me?"

Toru Amuro did not go forward, but after a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "Have you ever had a tire?"

Belmode: "...?"

This is a warning?hint?

...what is Bourbon referring to with tires?

……

In the stairwell on the same floor, Jiang Xia, who was eavesdropping with a ghost remote, froze slightly.

He made a little association based on the cause and effect, and found that Toru Amuro would suddenly ask this question, perhaps because he checked the hotel's surveillance and saw Xiaobai at the same time as Belmode.

...It was a terrible intuition that the tires and Xiaobai were connected so quickly, obviously Xiaobai had never approached his car in front of Toru Amuro.

Jiang Xia was a little guilty at first, but then became calm again——What does what the little white puppet does have anything to do with his body?As we all know, even the Kuroba family's disguise technique cannot completely disguise a person as a child.

So Xiaobai is Xiaobai, Jiang Xia is Jiang Xia, two completely different individuals... In addition, Xiaobai is a metaphysical puppet, who can disappear and escape anytime and anywhere, even if he bites a tire in front of Amuro Toru, he doesn't How about the law.

What's more, from the current point of view, Toru Amuro has not discovered the connection between Xiaobai and "Jiangxia", but more connected Xiaobai and tires.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia suddenly felt relieved and continued to eavesdrop.

Unfortunately, Belmode and Toru Amuro don't seem to have much in common.

Toru Amuro asked a few questions, but failed to get a decent answer, so he walked out by himself, and did not help Belmode to open the handcuffs.

Jiang Xia hid deep in the corridor before Amuro Toru left.

After the car downstairs drove away, he went downstairs again and left quietly.

Jiang Xia took a detour, got out of the alley halfway, and walked towards the subway station.

Just as he walked out of a street, he heard the familiar sound of racing cars behind him. The car got closer and closer, and finally stopped beside him with a screeching sound.

Amuro glanced at Jiang Xia from the car window, and nodded to him.

According to common sense, Jiang Xia should open the door and get in the car at this time, and then the two quickly left before the traffic police arrived.

However, Jiang Xia didn't move. Instead, he first looked at his car, and then looked at him with a slight vigilance.

Toru Amuro was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly felt that he understood - he learned a lot from a fall, and it must be Belmode's ability to refresh the world view that left a deep impression on Jiang Xia. Now Jiang Xia sees everyone suspecting it is Someone else pretended to be.

Thinking of this, Toru Amuro pulled his face, indicating that there was no disguise: "Get in the car first, the patrolling traffic police are coming soon."

Jiang Xia managed to discern a trace of rosiness on his face after being pulled - a characteristic that Yi Rong does not have - before he opened the door and got a ride that was much faster than taking the subway.

Toru Amuro drove the car away before the traffic police turned into the street, and asked, "What's going on?"

Although he has roughly pieced together the process of the matter, he still wants to hear Jiang Xia's perspective.

Jiang Xia shook her head: "I met Mrs. Ogata yesterday. She is usually a bit out of tune, but she is very nice. I went to have a few drinks with her, and then..."

"..." Amuro listened and felt that something was not quite right.

Jiang Xia is actually quite accurate in judging people, that is to say, his "teacher Ogata" is a scumbag who can "invite students to the bar and drink them when they meet students"?

...Well, the point of drinking is subject to discussion. According to Belmode's cunning, she may order some alcohol that does not look like strong alcohol to deceive people.But this shows that "Teacher Ogata" is at least one person who will lure underage students into bars... Heh, a cancer in society, I have to ask my colleagues to investigate when I have time.

After casually adding something to the work schedule, Toru Amuro asked again: "And then? What didn't she ask you?"

Jiang Xia pressed her forehead and thought for a while:

"Ask about detectives. Ou... The person pretending to be Mr. Ogata said that Gin used to use APTX4869 on Kudo Shinichi, the high school detective who disappeared a while ago. But this kind of The drug is still in the experimental stage and cannot be [-]% fatal, and the death of Kudo Shinichi was confirmed by Shirley who has defected, so the authenticity cannot be guaranteed, so she suspects that the detective is not dead, and has kept in touch with me to this day."

Toru Amuro listened carefully, and did not immediately connect the missing Kudo Shinichi with the witty schoolboy with glasses.

After all, "adults become smaller" is not a possibility that can be immediately thought of for a person like him who believes in science.

Chapter 351

So Toru Amuro's thoughts turned elsewhere—the situation was a little different from what he had expected. He thought Belmode was after Shirley, but judging from Jiang Xia's words, although she mentioned Shirley, Shirley didn' Not the point of what she said.

So why should Belmode pay attention to a high school detective?Theoretically speaking, if Kudo Shinichi is really not dead, this is definitely a major mistake in Gin's work. Is Belmode trying to catch Gin's fault?

She came to Jiang Xia because Jiang Xia and Kudo Shinichi were classmates, and there were rumors that "Kudou Shinichi was possessed by the dead", so Belmode, like the black-skinned high school student detective from the west, felt that Jiang Xia solved the case suddenly Faster, is it because there is Kudo Shinichi, who is in suspended animation, pointing out behind the scenes?

...which makes sense.

In addition, it is really necessary to find out whether Kudo Shinichi is dead or not.

Speaking of this...

Amuro looked at Jiang Xia next to him, and suddenly asked: "I heard that you are not only Kudo Shinichi's classmate, but also his neighbor. What do you think? Is he really dead?"

Jiang Xia, who was still pretending to be hungover, was taken aback.

... so straightforward?

He hesitated for a second between pretending to be asleep, telling the truth, and lying, and first quickly ruled out telling the truth.

After thinking carefully for a long time, Jiang Xia closed her eyes and said in a low voice, "He should be dead."

He made a small calculation in his heart: At present, Toru Amuro doesn't know that he is in Jiang Xia, and he has fallen to Jiang Gu Ling.So in Amuro Toru's eyes, Jiang Xia didn't know that he was a policeman, and still treated him as the "Bourbon" in the organization.

If you tell Amuro Toru and Kudo Shinichi that he is indeed still alive at this time, it will undoubtedly provide a very useful piece of information for the organization.

Although Jiang Xia himself knew that Toru Amuro was a secret agent of Kexue World, and would not take the initiative to attack innocent citizens who had no grudges. I don't know that Jiang Xia knows this.

If Jiang Xia revealed the whereabouts of Kudo Shinichi at this time, it would undoubtedly become a betrayal of his classmates and help the tyrant, and he would be easily targeted by the red party as a black-hearted boy.

... Sigh, it's really tiring to deal with vests. Every time when it comes to business, you have to jump back and forth between countless positions a few times, so as to figure out what to say in order to maintain your image and get to the case painlessly.

……

Of course, since Conan used Kudo Shinichi's voice to contact the police, if Toru Amuro wanted to investigate, even if he didn't think that Kudo Shinichi had become smaller for a while, he would soon know that Kudo Shinichi was actually still alive.

In this way, the long period of thinking before Jiang Xia's answer just now can be seen as a struggle between lying and telling the truth.The reason for the entanglement can be understood as the fact that Toru Amuro, the boss, is quite kind, and Jiang Xia didn't want to lie to him so decisively... so much so that he could keep a small boat of friendship.

Toru Amuro seemed to sense a problem from the tone of Jiang Xia's answer. He glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, but he didn't ask any more questions on his face, but in his heart he had already put on the agenda to find the relevant information of Kudo Shinichi.

Let this matter be suppressed for the time being, and come to an end.

Toru Amuro turned to something else:

"That woman's code name is 'Belmode'. If you have followed the entertainment industry, you should be able to recognize her. Her usual identity is Chris Wynyard—that international female star with outstanding acting skills."

As he said that, he remembered Jiang Xia's vague mercy to Belmode just now, and added:

"Bermode is good at changing appearance and voice, and she has a bad personality. Many people who work with her will lose their lives without knowing why, but she is very valued by the boss and will not be held accountable for it. So even if she has a code name Many of her members died in vain because of carrying out missions with her, let alone ordinary members... In short, don't be fooled by her appearance."

Jiang Xia nodded, but he didn't want the cadres from the red party to discover his murderous covetousness towards Belmode, so he argued, "I thought she was Teacher Ogata at first."

"..." Toru Amuro hesitated to speak even more.

After the Mazda drove two streets away, he thought about it and said, "In the future, when you go out, don't drink the drinks offered by others."

...Although this is actually common sense, now Toru Amuro suddenly realizes that most of the time this sentence reminds girls, but now it seems that gender discrimination is not advisable, and publicity and education should take into account all aspects and should not be ignored Another vulnerable group.

Jiang Xia also hesitated to speak for a while, suspecting that her social common sense was being disdained.

But because he did drink with someone he didn't know very well yesterday, he couldn't refute directly, so he had to make a detour: "The drink was handed by the waiter."

"..." There was a longer silence, "Anyway, don't go into the bar."

"...I usually walk around the bar, yesterday was too much hospitality."

"..."

……

silence.

Silence is today's Mazda.

When the car passed by the detective agency, Jiang Xia glanced out the window and said in a low voice, "I'll stay here."

Toru Amuro recovered from the education problems of the younger generation, and remembered Jiang Xia's habit of frequently checking mailboxes, so he found a place to stop nearby, put down the people, and drove away.

He is indeed a bit busy today. In addition to the original part-time job, he also temporarily added a lot of new jobs to himself-for example, when did Chabel Mode and Gin have a new enmity, or find out who was in the middle of Schrödinger's life and death? An over-the-top detective of the state.

Standing by the side of the road, Jiang Xia watched Toru Amuro's car go all the way, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, in the middle of the night last night, he was bored and opened his vest to check the mailbox once, and he was not in a hurry to come today.

But the atmosphere in the car was a bit awkward - he didn't expect Toru Amuro to get down to business and suddenly jump to yesterday's drinking.

Pretending to be drunk and being taken away by a beautiful sister... at least after removing the age, it sounds like a good experience.But from the perspective of others, it is a completely different situation to be picked up by a beautiful sister after being drunk and tried to use that thing... I don't know if Amuro saw those things when he entered the bedroom just now The terrible "caring props", I hope Belmode will have a face and kick things into places where others can't see before he leaves...

Jiang Xia thought about it, shivering awkwardly.

He silently wrapped his coat that was open to the wind, and walked quickly towards the detective agency.
