Conan's Corpse Picker

Jiang Xia didn't plan to stay for too long, and she was not a professional in firefighting, so she excused that there was an exam at school, and quickly set foot on the road to leave from Moon Shadow Island.

It was getting late, so he returned to the island first and stayed on the island until dawn.

The next morning, I took a passenger boat to land in Tottori Prefecture.

While on board, Jiang Xia conveniently bought a newspaper.

I saw the police gave a basic guess about the explosion last night-when Heiyan, Chuandao and other families gathered in the community center to open a small stove, something went wrong in the kitchen and they were killed.

Jiang Xia: "..."

It's quite perfunctory.

But there is no way, most of the police in this world have this style of painting... I don’t know if gin and vodka have kept alive in the families of those drug dealers. "Police handling the case" and other news in the newspapers... But, um, it's probably a very long time from then.

After turning over the newspaper several times, the boat docked.

……

Jiang Xia got off the boat, set foot on the coast, and then got on a passing bus, ready to go to the train station.

On the road, the vehicle travels through the mountains.

Jiang Xia looked at the mountain scenery and the occasional villas in the mountains through the wide and clear car window, and a word slowly emerged in his mind.

——Golden Annex.

Ah no, it's the Twilight Annex.

A while ago, after accidentally picking up the maple leaf gold coins delivered to the door, Jiang Xia had nothing to do, and also checked the burial locations of several other treasures, planning to get some money to spend when he was short of money .

But later, I have never encountered a place to use money, and for a psychic like him, except for the ghosts and shikigami that can be taken away at any time, everything else is real...

Therefore, after Jiang Xia confirmed those locations, he didn't rush to find them on purpose, but only planned to collect them when he passed by in the future.

But now, he remembered that Tottori Prefecture, which he was passing by at this time, happened to have a huge gold storage point - Twilight Annex.

Decades ago, the Twilight Annex was the property of the Karasuma family—that is, the property of "that gentleman" in the organization.

But at that time, Karasuma Renye, the owner of the annex, only knew that there was a treasure hidden in the annex, but he didn't know what the treasure was or where it was.

Renye Karasuma, who was in a hurry to spend money after the search failed, finally sold the annex.

As far as Jiang Xia knew, in fact, there was no treasure hidden in the annex, the treasure was the annex itself.

——The entire annex is wrapped in gold, and there is an ordinary shell outside the gold.

As long as the clock mechanism inside the villa is dialed, the old castle shell used to cover it will fall off, revealing the vast amount of gold underneath.

……

Now that everyone is here, Jiang Xia decided to drop by to have a look.

First, he remembered that there had been a massacre in the annex.Now, there may still be ghosts left in it.

In addition, although Karasuma's old house has long been sold, it has been transferred through numerous hands, and the low price has fallen into the hands of a down-and-out gourmet detective.

But since this castle is related to the organization, once it is revealed that there is gold in it, unless the official agency intervenes first, the organization will probably not let this castle go. organization's property.

And not long ago, the loyal cadres of the organization not only let him pick up three ghosts out of thin air, but also tried to shock him with a semi-finished necklace that is still under development. Now when he watches ghosts, he can pry a little gold from the boss's hometown, which shouldn't be too much Bar……

Jiang Xia found a barely plausible excuse for the upcoming illegal behavior, then settled down and prepared to become a gold miner.

……

The bus quickly came to the nearest urban area.

Jiang Xia got out of the car and walked two streets to the car rental shop, but she didn't go to battle in person.

He found a hidden place, released a large number of shikigami from the prints on his heart and mouth, and let them hug together and turn them into solid puppet clay.

Then he picked up Miss Spider, who was watching from the side with her sleeves rolled up, and threw it in.

Ghost tires are fused as basic scaffolding.

Soon, a figure wearing a kimono and a white gauze hat took shape in front of Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia sized up this fairly normal puppet, then went around behind her and carefully checked her back.

After confirming that the clothes are neat, there are no strange bulges, and no strange claws protruding, Jiang Xia can safely let the main body stand nearby and hang up, attaching consciousness to the new puppet.

Soon, a "woman" wearing a kimono and a white gauze hat came out from the alley.

She looked around and walked slowly to the car rental agency.

Miss Spider is a new ghost who just brought her home, and Jiang Xia hasn't had time to give her a fake certificate.

But in the past, Jiang Xia had prepared a set of certificates for the two forms of the ghost parents when they turned into puppets.

——The parents and ghosts usually hug each other tightly, their abdomens are glued together, and they cannot be separated.

So when you throw them in puppet clay, you can only make a couple who hug each other all the time...or try to shrink one into a young guy with a huge beer belly, or a pregnant woman who looks like she is about to give birth.

For pregnant women of this level, car rental companies may not dare to rent them.And the guy with the beer belly once rented a sports car for Jiang Xia in Tokyo, and that car also came across Gin... If he were to show up in Tottori Prefecture at this time, there would always be a flaw.

So this time, Jiang Xia simply adopted a brand new puppet.

……

When renting a car, Jiang Xia took out the fake driver's license that had been issued to his mother ghost before.

——Miss Spider turned into a puppet with heavy makeup.In addition, every time a puppet is generated, Jiang Xia will also support the puppet together, so the appearance of the puppet is half according to the ghost fetus, and half according to Jiang Xia's spirit body.

Therefore, upon closer inspection, Miss Spider and the "pregnant woman" are actually somewhat similar.And when taking the ID photo on the driver's license, no one deliberately took pictures of the bulging stomach... It is completely possible to use one card for two purposes, and use it as a temporary replacement.

Chapter 417 Who Should the Organization and the Police Choose?

Jiang Xia drove a dummy and walked into the car rental shop with a fake certificate.

Two and 10 minutes later, a truck was successfully driven away with the puppet.

He drove the car to a hiding place and hid the main body in the car first, lest the main body and the puppet be too far apart later and consume a lot of murderous energy.

Then he returned to the driver's seat, took out money to buy a set of tools, and piled them on the car.

After getting ready, the truck set off and drove all the way to the Twilight Annex.

Vehicles pass through dense forests and old bridges.

Finally, through the branches and leaves blocking the view, an old castle can be seen standing in the forest.

Jiang Xia looked at the tall castle from a distance, raised his hand to support the bamboo hat, and a glint of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes.

……

When approaching the annex, Jiang Xia first walked around the area.

He was driving a puppet framed by Miss Spider at this time.The eight claws protrude from the back, and they move lightly and silently, with a fast speed, which is more convenient than a truck in this complex mountainous terrain.

After walking around, no one was found.

Only then did he follow the wall to the gate, stretched out his claws to pry open the gate, and drove the truck in arrogantly.

On the way, Jiang Xia sensed it carefully and asked the ghosts to help him find it.

But no traces of ghost fetuses or shikigami were found.

Although there seems to have been a massacre here more than 40 years ago, Shikigami usually picks up his own corpse or the murderer's leg.Now that the corpse has been transported away and disposed of, the murderer has already left. It seems that none of the shikigami can stay.

Moreover, according to the results of the inspection next to the annex just now, there are no ghosts here...

After failing to find the ghost, Jiang Xia had no choice but to look back at Huang Jin with regret.

……

Most of the day later, at the foot of the annex at dusk.

Jiang Xia carefully put the last piece of gold dug out on the truck, looked at the full truck, and nodded secretly with satisfaction.

He didn't dig too much, he just pried a batch of gold from the humble corner room.

Although this precious metal is very heavy, Jiang Xia already has many shikigami now.

As the number of shikigami increases, the quality of the puppet clay gradually improves, and the strength of the puppet also increases.Today, the power of puppets has already surpassed the scope of ordinary humans.He easily carried it back and forth with a puppet, and quickly piled up all the prized gold on the cart.

After digging, Jiang Xia did not forget to sweep the tail and restore the dusty castle shell to its original state.

Finally, before the sun went down, I drove away in a low-key manner.

I have to say that although money is useless, the act of mining itself gives people a sense of accomplishment.

Jiang Xia intends to launder this batch of gold collected from the boss's hometown into money, and just open a puppet that can pretend to be a human being, and try to buy the Twilight Villa.

If you are under a lot of pressure in the future, or if you are robbed by gin again, come and dig a mine to cultivate your body and mind.

As far as Jiang Xia knows, the current owner of the Golden Villa, Dashang Zhushan, is now in poverty—a few years ago, Dashang Zhushan heard about the treasure, so he put all his wealth on the purchase of the Twilight Villa , Looking for treasures.

Dashang Zhushan is also a famous detective.

He thought that according to his reasoning ability, as long as he bought the other house, the treasure would be within his grasp... Unexpectedly, there was a huge gap between the ideal and the reality. He searched for many years, but still had no clue, and the pressure on his body was increasing.

Up to now, Dashang Zhushan has even come up with the idea of ​​"find a few detectives and lock them up in the annex, kill them one by one if they can't solve the mystery, and use their lives to let them burst into potential"...so poor To this extent, if someone is willing to bid for the castle at this time, Dashang Zhushan may agree to change hands, and drop a bunch of good-quality murderous spirits by the way.

If you don't want to, then you have to find other uses.

——Don’t buy another building, but wait for Dashang Zhushan to kill but was killed instead, first pick up the ghost he lost, and then use some tricks to block the mechanism, so that the gold in the castle cannot be exposed temporarily.

Afterwards, tell the gentleman about the news of the Twilight Villa, or disclose it to Toru Amuro as appropriate, or do both at the same time, with each side changing a little friendliness, so that they can catch their ghosts in the future.

With so many detectives in the castle, there will still be murders at that time. Even if Jiang Xia doesn't notify Amuro Toru, it is normal for the police to find the Twilight Villa.Don't worry about that adult suspecting that he sells two sides with one message.

As for Toru Amuro... The Twilight Annex used to be the property of the boss family, and the organization's eyes and ears are all over the island country, so it's not surprising to know anything. After the case of the Twilight Annex was exposed to the outside world, the boss suddenly had an association and sent someone to find it. Here, it's also normal...

After the news of the sale is finished, you can eat melons and watch the show, and open a market to see who will end up with this pile of gold.

……

After playing the miner game, Jiang Xia used a puppet to drive a fully loaded truck into the black market, found an institution that had a chain relationship with Tokyo and he frequented, and left behind his gold and account.

Afterwards, he left the body in a hidden place, returned the car, scattered the puppets, and returned to the body.

Then headed back to Tokyo overnight.

……

At noon the next day, Jiang Xia returned to Mihua Town.
