Conan's Corpse Picker

When passing by the tear-like crystal, he stepped on the road and walked over without stopping.

Then the pace got slower and slower, slower and slower...

When reaching the door, Jiang Xia stopped.

He glanced back at the crystal that doubled the magic power of Hongzi Koizumi and Kidd combined: "..."

Although I don't know the function, it must be something from the witch - it has a faint aura of the same origin as Koizumi Hongko and the magic power wrapped around her body when she pretended to be Kidd that day.

...It's not that I want this energy core.It's just that if you throw it here, it will always feel troublesome if the witches follow their breath and carry a bunch of heavy weapons to find it.

But if it is taken elsewhere, the energy core will eventually be picked up by the witch and strengthen them.In that case, the witches who are in good health may come to this kind of surprise voyeurism from time to time.

...In short, this crystal cannot be left alone.

Gotta figure out a way to get rid of it.

From a rational point of view, the safest and most convenient way is to completely erase its remaining traces through absorption...

……

Jiang Xia temporarily threw the energy core crystal into the tattoo space.

It will take a certain amount of time to completely smash and absorb.However, the printing space is completely isolated from the outside world, so there is no need to worry about the witches repeating their tricks and divination to the location of the crystal.

Moreover, although they didn't know what happened, judging from the screams they vaguely heard just now, they probably didn't bother to check him for a while.

At this time, Lu Yexiu and his elder brother, who were standing next to him, were strong enough to wake up stubbornly again and get up again.

The old man rubbed the back of his head and looked up to see Jiang Xia. After being dazed, his expression suddenly became alert, and he secretly touched a wooden stick on the ground next to him. It seemed that he still hadn't given up his wish of "surviving the prosecution period".

...the attitude returned to normal.

Shuji Shikano's appearance just now was probably coerced by violent emotions originating from other existences, and he failed to hold on to his position. At this time, the source of influence disappeared, and he naturally changed back to his original state.

What happened just now, and the sudden emotion, will probably only be regarded as a strange dream... It's not a big problem.

Jiang Xia took a brief look, and before Lu Yexiu'er made a surprise attack, he once again went over with a knife and made him lie down quietly.

The murderous aura on Shikano Shuji's body was washed away just now.Now there is only a little thinness left, and Jiang Xia is not in the mood to knock people for the time being.

He dialed a police number to the Megure Police Department, saying that he had just kindly sent the old man home but was attacked for no reason. He is now at the abandoned warehouse at [-]-chome, Shinagawa District, hoping that the police can come to help deal with the aftermath.

After hanging up the phone, not long after, a group of police cars rushed over.

For some reason, an ambulance was sneakily mixed in.

Chapter 479

Jiang Xia heard the sound of police cars and ambulances, and as soon as he walked to the warehouse door, he saw Officer Sato and Police Department Megure rushing over one after the other.

Miwako Sato first looked at Jiang Xia who seemed to be in good spirits, and then immediately looked at Shuji Shikano who was lying beside him, showing a complex expression of "it really is".

Then she squatted down and felt for Shikano Shuji's pulse.

It was only when he found out that the person was still alive that he felt relieved.

The Mumu Police Department approached and asked, "What's going on?"

Jiang Xia recalled: "This old gentleman said that he forgot to take medicine for high blood pressure and asked me to take him home. As a result, he walked to such a desolate place. I thought he was in poor health and took the wrong path. I was about to remind him, but suddenly realized that he was going to attack me with a metal kettle... Fortunately, I was lucky and escaped in time."

After speaking, he sighed in fear.

"...Is that so?" Mumu Police Department was dubious.

He looks towards the ambulance.When Jiang Xia was explaining the previous situation, Lu Yexiuer had already been carried into the car with simple monitoring equipment on it.From the current point of view, all the vital signs of Shikano Shuji are stable, and it seems that he just passed out... Well, it's not a big problem.

Sato found that there was no murder case here, so he turned his attention to the "Chousirou Incident".

According to the investigation, on the day Shuji Shikano returned from Italy, his flight was late for some reason, and the deadline for the prosecution period is actually tomorrow.She had to find the 5000 million hidden by Shuji Shikano in the nearly [-] hours, and send this person to prison with iron-like evidence.

……

Amidst the sound of the ambulance running, Conan and Hui Yuanai also took advantage of the chaos and came to Jiang Xia's side.

——They confirmed the scene of the arson with Miwako Sato just now.After learning that Jiang Xia and Lu Yexiuer disappeared at the same time, a group of people anxiously helped to search.

Later, the Mumu Police Department received a call from Jiang Xia and dispatched someone to come, so the two fake children also mixed in with Officer Sato.

When the police left Jiang Xia temporarily, Conan looked at Jiang Xia, paused for a while, and suggested:

"When you're doing those variety shows, why don't you take on some fighting shows? It's so troublesome to waste time because of this kind of thing." And make them worry about the safety of the prisoners...

Hui Yuanai didn't speak, but nodded silently.

However, this proposal was firmly rejected by Jiang Xia: "I am a detective, not a fighter. Moreover, criminals will not give up crimes just because they encounter an inappropriate target. They will only look for other targets... instead of letting innocent people It’s better for me to be the target if I’m victimized than for other people to be assassinated or attacked.”

Conan: "..."

Haibara Ai:"……"

Although it was touching at first, and Jiang Xia's tone was sincere, they always suspected that besides "protecting the masses", there was another hidden motive, but Jiang Xia didn't add it into the words...

But not everyone has glimpsed the truth.

——Besides, a newly recruited little policeman heard what he said just now, and was looking at this side, his innocent eyes full of emotion.He bowed to Jiang Xia with bright eyes.Jiang Xia was startled, then nodded to him reflexively.

At this time, the mermaid who was full and paralyzed on Jiang Xia's shoulder suddenly moved.

The mermaid touched her round belly, sat up with difficulty, flicked her tail, then raised her hand and pointed in a certain direction - there was a faint murderous and shikigami aura over there.

...Although it is being filled to the brim with the energy core, the murderous aura that slipped nearby cannot be let go.

Jiang Xia glanced at the other ghosts, and found that they obviously did not have the awareness of mermaids.It was only after the mermaid reacted that he slowly got up and glanced in the same direction, quite a picky feeling of examining the steamed buns and mustards after feasting on delicacies from mountains and seas.

Jiang Xia took advantage of the chaos and knocked on the heads of these ghosts one by one to express his condemnation.You can't be too greedy as a human being, but you can be a ghost. If you are too Buddhist, you can't support yourself.

The ghosts hugged their heads silently, humbly accepting.

Jiang Xia followed the ghost's direction and looked at the entrance of the alley.

I saw a man wearing a windbreaker, gloves, and a hat, with sharp eyes and upturned eyes, got out of a car and walked towards the alley with a bag of things.

Just after taking a step, he saw a bunch of police cars here, and suddenly turned back into the car, intending to escape.

Jiang Xia poked at the passing Shiratori Police Department: "...Do you think that person looks like the arsonist you are looking for? It is rare to see people wearing such thick clothes in hot weather."

Shiratori Ren Sanlang was startled, then turned his head quickly,

Almost at the same time, Yoshida Ayumi, who had been eavesdropping on Jiang Xia's words, also exclaimed: "It's him! I saw him next to the arson scene yesterday!"

With this immature but high-decibel scream, the warehouse and alley suddenly returned to silence, and time seemed to freeze.

The next moment, the arsonist slammed the door open, got into the car, and started the car.Countless policemen also rushed towards him at the same time.

Miwako Sato originally ordered a few people, and was about to run the case of "Shou Sirou", but she didn't expect another criminal to show up here.

Instinctively, she took a step towards the arsonist with her colleagues, and then immediately remembered that human legs cannot outrun a car, so she turned to run to her own car parked on the edge.

While opening the car door and getting in, the co-pilot's door was also opened and slammed shut again.

Miwako Sato turned her head in doubt, and found that the young detective who "was still sad when he was attacked by the old man who avenged his kindness" had already got into her car very naturally. : "Hurry up, he's going in the direction of Kubotocho."

Miwako Sato: "..."

She was silent for a moment, thinking that she was also in the car, even if she really caught up with the arsonist, she didn't have to worry about Jiang Xia beating him too hard, so she stepped on the gas pedal.

The vehicle slammed into the path and chased away at high speed.

There is a very narrow alley between the place where the robber's vehicle is and the place where the police car is parked, and the vehicle can't pass through it-it can't be driven sideways like Amuro Toru.

So Miwako Sato could only choose to detour.

……

The six arson locations chosen by the arsonists happened to be able to draw a huge "fire" character on the map of Tokyo.

Of course, in order to avoid interference, when he set fire, he tried to pick places that were inaccessible.

The previous arson attacks went smoothly, and there was only one single witness, and the arsonist easily silenced them.

But this time, he followed the plan and came to the side of the desolate abandoned warehouse, and was about to set fire to the predetermined location to complete the huge "fire" character.

Unexpectedly, after getting out of the car, he just took a step while humming a ditty, when he saw a group of policemen standing densely next to the warehouse.

Chapter 480 Learn about the contract

Crashing into the police pile at the beginning, this is really an overly stimulating horror story for an active criminal.

The arsonist fled back into the car in agitation, and just focused on racing along the path, knocking down many things along the way.

It was also these traces that made Sato, who was detoured, not follow him immediately, but chased him for a long distance.

However, this tracking method is no longer easy to use when we reach Kuboto Town and get on the main road.

At a signal intersection, Miwako Sato's car stopped slowly.

She frowned and looked in three directions in front of her, not knowing which side to go for a moment.

Next to her, on the co-pilot, Jiang Xia leaned back in the chair and looked straight ahead.

——When he knocked on the ghost's head just now, he also threw Wutiangou out by the way, let it hitch a ride with the arsonist, and act as a metaphysical locator.

At this time, Jiang Xia felt the location of Wu Tiangou, and was a little hesitant whether to make up an excuse to guide the way, or just push it to "gut feeling".

Just thinking about it, I was about to speak.

But at this moment, the ghosts around him started to stir slowly, one by one leaning on the car window, looking towards the sky obliquely above.

——Beside this intersection, there is a commercial building, which is a shopping center in Kubado-cho.

On the outside of the commercial building, there is a Ferris wheel that is slowly turning, and there is a small commemorative plaque hanging beside it.

Jiang Xia sized it up, and was surprised to find that there was a ghostly aura here, and it was getting closer to him.

He followed the eyes of the ghosts and looked upwards.

I saw a normal-sized ghost tire jumping off the Ferris wheel on the side of the road, and it was fluttering and falling towards the place where the car was.

It quickly grabbed the window, and then squirmed into the car along the crack of the window.

Jiang Xia's gaze was fixed on the new ghost that was sent to the door for nothing, and it was difficult to move.

——the adult male ghost he had always wanted.
