Conan's Corpse Picker

His eyes fell on the folded wings behind Wutiangou, and his eyes lit up slightly.

Through the balcony, Jiang Xia looked at the flames on the bridge in the distance, then looked away, and looked at the point of "Jiang Xia"'s gaze: "..."

Under his silent gaze, Kidd approached nonchalantly.

Chapter 592

The strange thief who had his eyes on other people's wings thought about it, but he was embarrassed to just ask for a free ride.

So first he found a topic tactfully: "Is that detective all right?"

Jiang Xia drove the puppet of Wutiangu, thought for a moment, and nodded - although he didn't hand over the body to Terai Konosuke as Kidd thought, but in his own hands, it must be fine.

Kidd couldn't see anything wrong from Wutengu's calm expression.

He pointed at the bridge with some sparks from a distance: "The mastermind who summoned us just blew up the bridge. Although I said it for a while, if the detectives haven't returned, their friends or assistants will probably call the police for rescue." Man... but you know, I take gems and art from the cops a lot, so they don't take kindly to me, and if I get surrounded by them..."

As he said that, he glanced at the flying Wutiangou and secretly hinted.

"..." Jiang Xia received his hint, and moved her wings reluctantly, "If you can't run away by yourself, I can send you out."

Kidd was relieved.

At the same time, I couldn't help raising my hand, pinching the hard skeleton of the wings enviously: Oh, so cool.After all, hang gliding still can't compare with real wings.

Jiang Xia glanced at him, ruthlessly pulled the wings out of his hand, and said casually, "If you want, you can grow them too."

Kidd was taken aback, a little moved: "You mean using magic?"

"No, magic can't make you grow wings." Jiang Xia skillfully piled up a pair of vampire-like fangs as she spoke, and opened her mouth slightly, letting the fangs flash a frightening cold light, "But you can become a monster , then it will naturally have wings."

Kidd: "?!"

He instinctively covered his neck and stepped back a few steps.

But the curiosity couldn't be suppressed: "You monsters are like vampires? If you bite them, you will turn into the same kind..." Huh?and many more.

Kidd suddenly remembered something serious: "...you bit that detective just now!"

Jiang Xia: "..."

Just kidding, Kidd is actually quite serious... Does he think Wu Tiangou can't lie?

So he also became more rigorous, and said calmly: "Not all people who have been bitten can become the same kind, and we have to distinguish them according to the situation."

"...That's it." Kidd actually believed it, and seemed to be seriously debating whether to become a monster and grow wings that were more majestic and flexible than a hang glider.

On the opposite side, Jiang Xia silently scrutinized his expression.

When I found out that he was serious, I was a little shocked: "..."

... Kidd is also a sophomore in high school, so he hasn't cured his secondary illness yet.

Or, the encounter with the witch before made cracks in Kidd's worldview, so now he is in a state where any messy worldview can be stuffed into his brain?

…The wings are actually not that good, except that they are convenient when flying, and they can replace the wives’ cats to hug Rua a few times when they are free, but they are troublesome and difficult to fold at other times, so it is difficult to get a job in the winery.

Speaking of which, what if Kidd really nodded later?

"..." Well, let's just say you failed the assessment.Not everyone can be a monster.Moreover, Wu Tiangou has a zigzag pattern on his body, and he is considered a member of an anonymous organization. It is normal for the threshold to be higher...

Jiang Xia looked out at the dark forest outside as if nothing had happened, and pressed back the occasional conscience.

……

Fortunately, although Kaitou occasionally has a second grade, he still has reason and understands the inconvenience of monsters.

Although he was very moved by the invitation to "become a monster and grow a pair of wings", which he would never hear a few times in his life, he still planned to refuse in the end.

——Kids thought about it, and realized that he was stealing gems with a purpose, rather than stealing randomly.At present, it seems that with the collections he got, it is difficult to supply Wu Tiangou with a monster. Wouldn't it be even more difficult if he added himself.What if it finally develops into two monsters hooking up shoulder to shoulder and going out to hunt humans...

"..." Kidd didn't think so.

And judging from Wu Tiangou's past behavior, it seems that the pair of wings cannot be completely hidden.That is to say, if he also becomes a monster and grows wings, then he may not be able to mix naturally in human society in the future...

Kidd finally shook his head regretfully.

Then counting the time, he bid farewell to Wu Tiangou a little weakly: "I have to go back. Be careful when you act, those detectives are all very observant, and there is a gun hidden under the pillow in my room... Temporary lodging people like me can get guns, and maybe other people have them in their houses too. Tsk, the owner of this annex is really sinister."

Jiang Xia nodded, indicating that he understood.

After confirming that Kidd would not wander around and destroy the situation in the annex, he watched the strange thief leave, and then lit a ghost mint plucked from the main body to replenish energy.

Then let the golem slowly dissipate.Consciousness also returned to the puppet where Matsuda Jinpei was.

……

Jiang Xia opened her eyes in the living room and looked around.

Seeing that Matsuda Jinpei didn't stand in a daze all the time, but played billiards.

The opponent is Toru Amuro, who is not very serious - the boss who likes to use his brain to solve problems. He seems to be secretly releasing water at this time. He naturally misses the ball. It seems that he wants Matsuda Jinpei to move a little more and observe him. status.

"..." The opponent let the sea go, it's boring to fight... Jiang Xia picked up the club propped on the ground, and was about to settle this round before going to play something else.

At this time, on the other side of the card table, Guntian Yumei suddenly asked "Huh?" in doubt.

She flipped through the cards in her hand, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with emotion: "It seems really restored."

Although the detectives in the living room were playing their own games, they were not really immersed in these casual games, but concentrated on thinking about the affairs in this annex.

At this time, after hearing what Guntian Yumi said, a group of people realized that it seemed to be related to tonight's puzzle, and gathered around to check.

I saw Guntian Ikumi holding two playing cards in her hand - the Jack of Spades and the 4 of Clubs glued together.After separating, you can see a dark mark soaked in the middle of the card, which at first glance looks like a bloodstain.

"There is even blood splattered in the living room... Whether it's real blood or a replica, the scene back then seems to be very tragic." The cowboy detective took the playing cards and looked at them, "I'm really more and more curious about where Kidd is looking. That's why we came here."

"Jiang Xia" glanced at him: Regarding this issue, Kidd himself also wants to know...

Just as he was thinking, the door of the living room was knocked several times.

A group of detectives gathered around the card table turned their heads.

The maid gently opened the door and bowed: "I've been waiting for a long time. Dinner is ready, and the master is waiting for everyone in the dining room."

Chapter 593 Your wife is gone

"Huh? He actually showed up on his own initiative?"

Granny Qianjian pushed her glasses suspiciously.

The maid responded, and immediately remembered what she had speculated just now that "the master probably doesn't intend to show up", and lowered her head in embarrassment.

She blushed slightly, turned sideways quietly, let the door open, and led the guests.

……

A group of people walked through the corridor and came to the restaurant.

Pushing open the double doors, one can see three tables arranged in a ∏ shape in the dining room—two long tables facing each other, and the short table facing the door and farthest away from the door has a person sitting upright.

The "owner" sat at the main seat, with a set of tableware with delicate patterns in front of him.

He was wearing a black robe and a purple pointed hood. His face was tightly covered, only two faint eye holes were exposed. He looked like a villain in a game that had accidentally slipped into reality.

Jiang Xia: "..." Good, good middle school two.

Aside, Cowboy Detective apparently thought the same.

And he said it out loud: "Haha, do you watch too much TV? It is said that Kidd is an uncle in his forties. Why do you look like a 14-year-old second-year student?"

The second child in the restaurant ignored him.

Seeing that everyone is here, the host said in a deep voice: "Famous detectives present. I sincerely welcome you to this evening pavilion—please take your seats first."

"..." Kidd stared quietly at the owner who looked different from himself no matter what, and secretly condemned this person's lack of professionalism.

However, after thinking about it, the mastermind behind the scenes has already blown up the bridge, and now no matter whether the host is really Kidd, the detectives can't run away for a while... It seems that there is really no need to continue the show.

Kidd sighed inwardly, found a place to sit down, and wanted to see what kind of tricks this "host" was going to play in his name.

……

On the long dining table, several sets of utensils are being placed at this moment.

A group of people found a place to sit and looked at the table at the end.

Under the gaze of everyone, the organizer said unhurriedly: "Please come here, I hope you can help me find the treasure hidden in this annex. In order to let everyone take this commission with peace of mind... "

boom--

As his words fell to the ground, a vague explosion suddenly sounded in the courtyard.

Immediately afterwards, through the window of the dining room, it seemed that the outside seemed to become a little brighter—there was a blurred and dancing light, as if a flame was burning.

Jiang Xia was in a position where she could see a corner of the parking lot outside the window.

I saw a car parked there, which had been blown out of shape at this time.

Considering that in order to keep people, the host will not only bomb one car.Although the other vehicles in the parking lot were out of his field of vision, it was not difficult to imagine their miserable condition at this time.

"..." Jiang Xia lit a candle for the luxury car and someone's wife.

Others also heard the explosion, and the atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly froze.

The organizer seemed to have expected their reaction long ago, and said with a low smile: "There is no need to panic, this is just to prevent you from leaving without permission."

Then, he said in the tone of Kaito Kidd: "In the past, you have been chasing me, I think, based on the principle of fairness, we should exchange our status occasionally.

"This time, it's up to me to enjoy the thrill of cornering you.

"By the way, by the way—the suspension bridge leading here is broken now, and everyone should have discovered it a long time ago. There is no phone here, let alone a signal...you can't leave.

"—Unless you help me find that treasure."

Speaking of this, the organizer's voice suddenly sank, with a hint of threat and murderous intent: "It took me many years to get this wealth, even if I risked my life, I still want to get it. I hope you don't let me disappointment."

Kidd touched the goosebumps on his arms.

... It's nothing to be in the second class, but when I think that this person is speaking in front of his identity, I feel extremely embarrassed.The real Kid would not say such a thing.

Jiang Xia leaned back in the chair leisurely, looked at the host who was not looking murderous, and smiled: "You said 'bet your life to find the treasure', you mean bet our lives?"

Next to him, Toru Amuro glanced at him, thinking that he seemed to be able to talk again.Speaking of which, almost as soon as he left the living room, the familiarity of "Kurosawa"'s actions disappeared again.
