Conan's Corpse Picker

[We followed Kazemi's direction and searched along the way, and found that the main road had collapsed due to yesterday's rain.

[The fog is too thick, and it is currently impossible to determine where the edge of the collapse is, and the vehicle cannot move forward.We plan to investigate the specific situation of the subsidence first, and then look for him on foot]

Toru Amuro: "..." The road collapsed?

In this way, even if there is a signal, after calling the police and calling an ambulance, it will be difficult for rescue to arrive in time.Same as before at the vampire villa...

...Wait, why did he take "calling the police" as a prerequisite for thinking?

Toru Amuro pressed his forehead, pinching away the strange thoughts.

——The one who should worry most now is the missing Kazami Yuya.

Combined with the fuzzy scene photos sent by other subordinates, Toru Amuro always felt that Kazami Yu also seemed to be distracted and drove directly into the collapsed road.

And that kind of place has a very unstable structure. If the person cannot be found as soon as possible, the more time passes, the more dangerous Kazami Yu will be.

Thinking of this, Amuro took another look at the location of the collapse.

Then I found that it was not too far from this mansion, and it took only ten minutes to run there.

...It's better to find an opportunity and go over to see the situation.

……

While other people walked out of the restaurant one after another.

Amuro slowed down and was the last one.

At the same time, he turned the volume of his mobile phone to 0, and made a video call to his subordinates, intending to take a look at the situation on the scene first, and make a brief assessment... At least before he arrives, he needs to find a few people who may also exist place, let the subordinates search first.

Although according to the plan, at present, Toru Amuro should focus on isolating Jiang Xia from the others, and observe whether this employee is "Uzo" or "incident physique".

... But in fact, along the way, the two of them have been encountering cases on the road, almost never stopping.

Although among them, the background of some cases was vaguely related to Jiang Xia.But at this time, in Amuro Toru's heart, the possibility of "Jiang Xia is Wu Zuo" has almost been completely covered by "Jiang Xia is just an incident physique".

Moreover, there is another characteristic that impresses him more than event physique.

——No matter where he goes randomly, Jiang Xia can accurately meet acquaintances by chance.

... If this is the case, then the matter of Jiang Xia going to Tottori Prefecture to pick up the commission of Aso Shishi a while ago, but encountering gin and vodka on the way, as well as the "Uzo" will no longer seem so suspicious.

For example, today, Toru Amuro personally experienced a chance encounter with vodka.

Thinking about it carefully, and going forward, they even met Rum and Curacao.

...If things go on like this, Toru Amuro suddenly felt that even if one day he and Jiang Xia ran into the mysterious boss of the organization when they went out, he probably wouldn't be surprised anymore... Alas, it's a pity that he doesn't know the boss's appearance, Jiang Xia I don't know, and I can't find it at all if I meet it.

……

In addition, in Amuro Toru's view, Vodka's attitude towards Jiang Xia tonight can also explain the problem.

——The last time Gin and the others came back from Tottori Prefecture, after Amuro Toru saw the file about "Uzo" in the gin bag, he just casually mentioned this fresh code name, which aroused Vodka's strong reaction.

However, today, Vodka suddenly saw Jiang Xia at the door, but he just glanced over lightly, as if he was just looking at an insignificant passerby.

His attitude has remained calm since then.Even just now, in the meditation room, Vodka took the initiative to sit next to Jiang Xia...

In Toru Amuro's impression, although Vodka has excellent skills in computer, driving and other professional fields.But among the skills he possesses, "exquisite acting skills" are not included.

...That is to say, Vodka's attitude is very different when meeting "Uzo" and "Jiang Xia".The difference is so big that it seems to be facing two completely different people.

... Speaking of this, there is one more thing to be concerned about.

——Why did Vodka grab the position next to Jiang Xia just now?

Thinking of this, Toru Amuro suddenly thought of how, a few days ago, in that high-end restaurant, Rum was bored and looked at Jiang Xia from time to time.

He couldn't help frowning.

Now it seems that being too famous is not a good thing.

It hasn't been long since Jiang Xia became famous, and she has already been targeted by those short-staffed guys from the organization...

Of course, in the case of vodka, it should not be Vodka himself who is eyeing Jiang Xia, but the gin behind him.

Speaking of it, it is understandable that Rum is interested in Jiang Xia. After all, a private detective like Jiang Xia may be entrusted by celebrities in the future and hold a lot of confidential information, so he can be regarded as an intelligence agent.

...But what does Jiang Xia have to do with gin?

No matter from which point of view, these two people have nothing to do with each other.Amuro Toru couldn't imagine the scene of Jiang Xia carrying a heavy weapon and shooting arrogantly...

Toru Amuro suddenly thought, maybe it was because a long time ago, he ridiculed Gin Jiu that he "has no discernment", after which Jiang Xia really grew into a famous detective with great potential, so Gin Jiu felt that he was slapped in the face , so I have held grudges up to now, and I have also remembered Jiang Xia?

"..." With Qin Jiu's words, there should be no time to target a peripheral member in the growth stage.

But if it happened, he might not mind a little revenge.

I don't know if Vodka inherited his elder brother's idea, so he noticed Jiang Xia...

Thinking of this, Toru Amuro was vaguely uneasy.

He quickly glanced at the late-night forest video sent by his subordinates, circled a few suspicious locations, and sent back the email.

Then look away from the phone and into the hallway.

The corridor was empty at this time, and there was no one there—the few people who had just finished dinner and went out had probably returned to their respective rooms and were resting at this time.

Toru Amuro looked around and was silent for a while.

... When he was looking at his phone in the restaurant, why didn't Jiang Xia wait for him and went back to the room?

This is not like that polite and sensible employee. Under normal circumstances, Jiang Xia would at least say hello first.

"..." The bad feeling increased.

Chapter 563 Let's chat with a colleague

After discovering the abnormality, Toru Amuro's attention was temporarily diverted from the collapse point thousands of meters away.

He found the guest room assigned to Jiang Xia by Hirasaka Reiki, walked over and knocked on the door.

Although Kazami can't ignore it, but Jiangxia should pay more attention... Well, before going to Kazami, let's secretly install a camera or something like that in Jiangxia, and leave a loudspeaker behind.If Vodka sneaks into the room in the middle of the night to intimidate or cause trouble while he is away, he can deter him from the air...

……

However, after thinking about the location of the camera and loudspeaker, Jiang Xia's room door was still closed, and no one came to open the door.

"...?"

Toru Amuro knocked a few more times, paused for a moment, and said tentatively, "I'm in."

Then hold the doorknob, press and push.

The door opened silently.

... The room was not locked. After the door was opened, a mysteriously decorated guest room appeared in front of Toru Amuro.

The beds were neatly made, and the chairs and sofas were empty.

Jiang Xia was not inside.

"..."

...what about people?

……

a few minutes ago.

While Toru Amuro was dawdling in the restaurant, communicating with several subordinates remotely, and thinking about the next plan.

While listening to the real-time broadcast of the ghosts on Toru Amuro's phone screen, Jiang Xia vaguely guessed what the boss was about to do.

At the same time, he glanced boredly, then stopped suddenly, and stopped on Vodka in front of him.

Vodka's intuition turned out to be quite sensitive.

While Jiang Xia was watching him, he suddenly felt something, and looked back secretly.

The two looked at each other briefly.

The air seemed to freeze for a second.

A second later, Vodka turned around as if nothing had happened, and continued to walk towards his room.

However, if you look closely, you can find that his pace seems to be a little faster than before.

Jiang Xia: "..." Surprised, it's kind of fun...

He stared at Vodka's back, thoughtful.

...Speaking of which, I haven't played with my mobile phone for several days, and I haven't read those weird commission letters from the firm. It's really boring.

Moreover, although vodka and gin sometimes act separately, it is not easy for ordinary citizens like Jiang Xia, who only see them once in a few days or even more than a month, to deliberately squat down to vodka to act alone.

...If you want to squeeze out the murderous spirit of vodka, this seems like a good opportunity.

——Although Qin Jiu will kill a few people every now and then, he doesn't advocate random killings, because that will attract the attention of the police. For an organization that pursues a low-key mystery... Well, at least in terms of concept, an organization that pursues a low-key mystery Definitely not a good thing.

So, Jiang Xia thought, maybe the reason why vodka doesn't look murderous is because there is gin beside it.Whether to kill or not needs to be decided by gin, so vodka will not have the intention to kill before receiving the order.

...But now, with gin gone, vodka can only be judged by one's own efforts and brains.

In this way, maybe when he feels threatened, his desire to survive will burst out, and he will instinctively show a little murderous look... Anyway, Vodka is also a member of a serious organization, and even got a code name.He must have murderous intent, but he just hid it secretly...

Of course, except for the murderous spirit of curious vodka.At present, there is another matter related to vodka, which makes Jiang Xia quite concerned.

——The last time he met vodka was already in Tottori Prefecture.

Compared to that time, tonight, Vodka's attitude has obviously changed a lot.

To put it simply, after seeing him, although Vodka was still taken aback, but vaguely seemed to have something to rely on... Obviously, gin is not by his side now.

Jiang Xia suspected that there was something worthy of vigilance, and it happened secretly behind her back.

... It is necessary to chat with Vodka as soon as possible to find out the situation.

and……

Jiang Xia glanced back at the empty corridor, thinking of Toru Amuro who was busy because of Kazami Yuya's disappearance, and felt that it would be a waste not to take this opportunity to do something.

——When he was looking for vodka for a friendly exchange, if Toru Amuro just ran to Kazami directly, then of course there would be no problem.

And if the boss walks in a rather sloppy manner, and intends to come to him to take a look first, and then suddenly finds that he and vodka are together... Then there is also vodka, a ready-made culprit.
