Conan's Corpse Picker

"..." Thinking of this, Toru Amuro, who stayed up all night, didn't struggle anymore.

He yawned and got into the police car back to the city.

……

Jiang Xia also quickly followed the car.

He glanced to the side and found that Toru Amuro fell asleep leaning against the back of the chair not long after getting into the car.

"..." It seemed that Night Owl was less powerful than Gin.

Jiang Xia secretly compared the strength of the red and black sides, and came to a useless conclusion.

Then he took out the dice with confidence and admired it against the light.

Although there are so many cases encountered along the way, it should be mainly due to the boss.

But thinking about it, maybe this dice is actually a good dice with event physique.

——Before, although Jiang Xia had made a good plan to "if the dice doesn't turn well, try to find a way to do something".But in fact, along the way, he didn't have much chance to intervene.

...Because he actually doesn't know where there will be cases.

In short, Jiang Xia thinks that this dice is very good at choosing the way, and it may bring good luck to the psychic.

If one day you can't find the event physique, maybe you can take a walk following its directions to relieve your mood...

……

Jiang Xia's main body hung up all night, and when the puppet was still sucking ghost mint, he rubbed some murderous energy that could replenish energy.

So now he is not only not sleepy, but rather energetic because of his abundant murderous aura.

The vehicle was moving smoothly, and Jiang Xia looked boredly at the winding mountain road outside the window, feeling that this environment is very suitable for encountering certain incidents, and then a flat tire is logical.

However, I don't know if it's because the dice are not used to guide the way, or the magical boss who is like a double experience card is catching up on sleep, or the cases in this area have unfortunately reached saturation...

In the end, until we arrived at the police station, there were no signs of a tire blowout, a passerby's tire blowout, or a sudden road collapse.

Looking at the peaceful gate of the police station, Jiang Xia sighed faintly.

……

With the police car parked and turned off.

Sensing the change in the surrounding environment, Toru Amuro opened his eyes alertly.

Looking out of the window, he found that the target police station was outside instead of some weird forest villa, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he seemed to be in a better mood.

Jiang Xia glanced at him secretly, and suddenly felt that this was like some kind of strange conservation law—the boss was happy, but to be honest, he was a little disappointed now...

However, due to the expression management of a certain psychic master, it is still in place.

Toru Amuro failed to discover the clue.

He got out of the car, stretched comfortably, looked at the bustling urban area in the distance, and began to think about any restaurants or attractions nearby that were worth visiting as he did when he was on a business trip.

Although I was worried that there would be more people and chance cases, but then I thought about it again: In the past few days, he and Jiang Xia went to places with few people, but has the chance of encountering murder cases decreased?

No.

...Since the probability of encountering a case has nothing to do with the number of people around, why bother with yourself and hide in places where no one is around?

Anyway, I can't avoid it.Maybe detectives have the fate of being called by events...

After going through an unforgettable journey, Toru Amuro finally reached a compromise with himself.

……

Amuro Toru was not so sleepy after just taking a nap in the police car.

After accompanying Jiang Xia into the building to fill up the notes about Kidd, Toru Amuro led the people out of the police station and went to find a place to settle down—this way he could take a break in the middle, and wait for his subordinates to finish searching the ventilation ducts and find out Matsuda's work, let's start together again.

after an hour.

The two booked a hotel, and then had a peaceful meal without screaming at the restaurant with the highest rating nearby.

During this period, Toru Amuro asked Jiang Xia about the details of meeting Kidd.

After listening to his description, he didn't find any problems, so he nodded and started to figure out how to get to the mission location without delay.

After dinner, on the way back.There are many passers-by in kimonos coming and going.

——The nearby Zhifeng University happened to be holding a themed cultural festival.In addition to the lively stalls of the students, the school also opened some old historical buildings, which attracted many people from the society who came to visit.

Amuro looked at the scene full of laughter and laughter, and smiled a little because of this harmonious picture.

In the next second, a heart-piercing shout suddenly came from the western mansion next to it:

"Ahhhhhh! Dead!!!"

The passers-by who were still laughing and talking just now were startled, and they all froze.A gust of cool wind blew, the branches on the side of the road shook, and a few dead leaves swirled and fell, the atmosphere changed in an instant.

Chapter 619 I Think It Can Be Rescued

Toru Amuro: "..."

Although my heart is a little tired, the detective instinct is extremely strong, even if it is only a part-time detective.

Sighing again, he still ran over quickly the next moment he heard the shout.

——Protect the scene as soon as possible, and it will be easier to find the real culprit.And the woman who screamed sounded terrified, and she might be in danger if the murderer remained in the same building.

Jiang Xia is also a detective in name, and together with Toru Amuro, he ran to the place where the screams came from.

On the way, he looked at the old mansion in front of him, and found that he couldn't feel the aura of ghosts or shikigami from inside, but there were two vague murderous auras.

...not an overly attractive gain.

However, anyway, it is the materials on the side of the road, so if you don't want to waste it, it is better to just pick it up.Leaving aside the practicality of murderous aura, the process of watching them fall off slowly is as comfortable as picking the harvested fruits...

……

The two quickly came to the entrance of the mansion, and opened the door with a bang.

I saw a person running towards me—it was a young woman in a foreign dress, with blood on her hands and splashed blood on her body, a short knife gleaming with cold light in her hand, and her face was calm.

She seemed to have intended to leave through this door.

Now, as Jiang Xia pushed open the door, the two sides suddenly met each other.The woman showed a surprised expression and seemed to want to stop, but her inertia made her continue to rush forward.

Amuro Toru lowered his eyes to catch a glimpse of the approaching sword light, instinctively walked around in front of Jiang Xia, and swiftly knocked away the weapon in the woman's hand.

After that, he waved his hand down and gave her a hand knife.

Before the young woman with no strength could react, she was hit miserably. With a muffled grunt, she closed her eyes and fell to the ground.

Almost at the same time, the door opposite the mansion was pushed open with a bang.

Two high school students barge in when they hear shouts about a "murderer".

Their eyes stopped on Toru Amuro and the woman at Jiang Xia's feet, and they were quickly attracted by something more eye-catching.

——Following the bloody footprints of the young woman, looking back, one can see a middle-aged man in the middle of the hall of the mansion.

The man was dressed in a kimono, lying on the ground silently, his hairstyle turned out to be an ancient Tsukiyo head, and a pool of blood was lying on his pillow.

Jiang Xia looked at the "corpse" and then at the woman who was laid down under her feet.

Finding that there was neither ghost nor murderous intent on the two of them, he looked away dully and turned to look at the two high school students who had heard the sound.

Looking at them this way, they turned out to be two acquaintances.

- Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha.

The two sides looked at each other for a second, Jiang Xia was a little happy when he saw the genuine detective with an event physique, and waved his hand: "Long time no see."

Yuan Shan and Ye were also very pleasantly surprised, and waved at him as well, and the haze of being frightened after seeing the corpse dissipated a lot.

Toru Amuro raised his head, and found that it was someone Jiang Xia knew again, and he gave a habitual click in his heart.

It was only later that I remembered, thanks to Kidd, now, he no longer has to be busy isolating Jiang Xia from the outside world—Toru Amuro even thought about returning Jiang Xia’s mobile phone, but on second thought, he took it away before When Jiang Xia was on the phone, he used the organization's mission as an excuse.Now that the task has not been done yet, the sudden return always feels very suspicious, so I gave up.

While heaving a sigh of relief, Toru Amuro looked at Hattori Heiji with some doubts: "It's you. Aren't you at home? I remember that when I was in the Twilight Annex yesterday, the maid said that you refused the invitation to go out in order to prepare for the exam. "

"My mother refused on my behalf." Hattori Heiji's face darkened when he thought of this.

——After that, he ignored his mother's objection and sneaked over to attend the mysterious dinner party.

However, some wicked guy threw nails on the road. He had a flat tire on his motorcycle and was delayed for a while, so he couldn't make it.

However, these things, of course, do not need to be explained to someone like Toru Amuro...

Hattori Heiji remembered the news Conan sent him about "Jiang Xia lost contact", looked back and forth between Jiang Xia and Amuro Toru, and frowned secretly.

Just wanted to test out the specifics.

But before he could speak, at this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side: "How long are you going to chat?"

At the same time, out of the corner of my eye, something moved.

The four were startled, and looked over quickly.

In the hall, the "corpse" with Yuedai's hair combed sat up.Following this movement, the plasma on the side of his brain dripped continuously down his cheeks.

Yuan Shan and Ye stared at the scene of fraudulent corpses, were stunned for a moment, then jumped up on the spot with a groan, and dodged to the side.

After shouting, she suddenly thought that maybe she had misunderstood.

——The conclusion that "the one lying on the ground is a corpse" is actually a subconscious judgment made by them.

In fact, after being hit by a blunt instrument, the victim may still be alive.

It was only because the people she saw "bleeding from the head and fell to the ground" in the past were almost all dead without exception, so she was led by inertial thinking and came to a wrong conclusion.

"Sorry, I thought you were dead just now."

While apologizing in a low voice, Yuan Shan and Ye secretly pressed twice on the phone, deleted a number from the "110" that was pressed beforehand and almost dialed out, and changed it to "119", and said thoughtfully: " I'll call an ambulance for you right now! You lie down and wait..."

"..."

The "corpse" on the ground is fresh and deceitful, hesitant to speak, and hesitant to speak.

Finally, he gave up communicating with these strange high school students, turned to an inconspicuous corner of the mansion, and shouted: "Sakakibara! Why don't you call 'ka'!"
