Conan's Corpse Picker

She turned her head to look at the corridor, and asked curiously, "Why is the store in such a mess? I saw a police car outside just now."

While speaking, she seemed to be hesitating whether to stay or not, flipping through the register in her hand.

Then on the previous page, I saw a familiar name - Jiang Xia Tongzhi.

In the adjacent grid, lay another obtrusive name - Toru Amuro.

Chapter 668

"..."

The woman, or Belmode, who turned into a passerby, finally saw these two names, and couldn't help discarding the image of a passerby, showing a look of vigilance and dissatisfaction at the latter's name.

After that, she turned back to the latest page and wrote her fake name casually.

Then he closed the ledger, handed it back to the front desk, and waited for the other party to answer.

"Well, something happened actually..." The front desk was worried that the guest would run away from him, so he went through the check-in procedure at n times the speed.

He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the formalities were completed, glanced in the direction of the commotion, and shared the melon he had eaten after a delay:

"To tell you the truth, we unfortunately had a murder here - a high school student detective hanged himself.

"He is very famous, you should have heard of him, that Jiang Xia from Tokyo..."

"...?"

The clerk originally wanted to be like a storyteller, selling off, and then making a sudden turn, shocking the customer's jaw.

But for some reason, the more I talked, the more chills I felt down my spine.

Moreover, I don't know if it's an illusion: Although the woman in front of the counter has a calm face and even a charming smile on the corner of her lips, she always feels that her aura suddenly becomes very scary... Well, maybe she was angry that the clerk didn't put it on earlier. Tell her about "there was a murder in the shop"?

Shop clerk: "..."

The lady seemed cheerful and outgoing, not someone with a delicate mind and a fear of murder.I didn't expect her reaction to be so strong, and her aura was beyond ordinary...

He shuddered cowardly when he thought of his behavior of cheating clients just now.

Immediately, I didn’t dare to continue to play tricks, but just like when I went through the accommodation formalities, I sped up my words by N times, I just wanted to finish the topic I started and send the person away after finishing the topic:

"Then the police came and found out that the 'hanged' person was actually a counterfeit—last night, the high school student detective was not in his own room at all, but went to the room of the boss who came with him. The one who died was a Someone who looks like him.

"In addition, the murderer was an employee of ours - a voyeur sneaked into Jiang Xia's room and installed a spy camera, but Jiang Xia was not photographed, but the murderer's entire killing process was filmed.

"Originally, the case should be easy to solve, but who knows that the murderer didn't admit that he had killed someone, and insisted that a mysterious person wanted him to play some kind of 'killing game'... Sigh, although his character is not very good, but the look of being accused The miserable situation that was dragged back really doesn't seem like it can be done by itself, there should be such a mysterious person..."

In front of the counter, Belmode, who was fed with bad news: "..."

A few days ago, she found that Bourbon took Jiang Xia out suddenly, cut off Jiang Xia's external contact channels, and suspected that she and Wu Zuo had tried each other, and she has been paying attention to this.

Although Gin didn't seem to care much about this matter, Belmode couldn't rest assured - what does Gin know?In the eyes of his ignorant real wine, Wu Zuo is a member of an organization as rooted as him.

But in fact, Belmode knew that Kudo Shinichi, who was reduced by APTX4869, lived near Uzo. Uzo knew about this, but it was related to the core secrets of the organization, and he had no intention of reporting the matter to the organization. , but took the initiative to help Conan and the others cover...

In short, Uzo is not as dirty as other organization members at all, he still has a clean place in his heart.

But for guys like Bourbon, the pure land in Uzo's heart is definitely a fatal flaw.

Therefore, being idle is also idle.

The day before yesterday, after Belmode finally caught Bourbon and Uzo's clear movements, he finally couldn't help designing to get rid of a few FBIs, took advantage of the chaos and left Tokyo, chasing them all the way.

……

Now it seems that her move was indeed right.

Although I haven't fully figured out the situation, but...

...why did someone commit suicide in Uzo's room?

...Who installed those candid cameras?

...and the most important thing—what is going on with the "killing game" and "mysterious man" mentioned by the murderer?

"..." Wu Zuo is a genius in using cases to kill people, there is no doubt about it.Even if he made occasional mistakes, the extent of the mistakes was probably just a failed assassination, and he would never show such obvious flaws after the failure.

But now, a murderer is clamoring that a mysterious person ordered him to kill... This kind of situation is probably because some despicable members of the organization, after hearing some rumors about "Uzo", in order to carry out corresponding Probes, intelligence, poor imitation.

Although he didn't learn it at all, this matter is likely to bring trouble to Wu Zuo.

Gotta figure out the specifics as soon as possible, and then...

While thinking about it, she took the key tremblingly handed over by the front desk, showing an elegant sneer.

……

When Shenbao Nobita opened his eyes again, he was picked up by the passing police and returned to the waiting room where he was just now.

The two police officers who were attacked by him also came back and were sitting nearby.

Compared with just now, the situation is completely reversed.

The first is the attitude of the police towards Shenbao Nobita.

——As for just now, a group of people were still skeptical about the "threat" that Shenbao Daxiong, who was crying, said.Now, because he attacked the police, the two policemen who woke up one after another have confirmed that this is by no means an honest and innocent citizen.

In addition, Jiang Xia actually had a new idea.

He looked at the disgraced Shenbao Daxiong, and fast forwarded all the way:

"The man in red who 'hanged himself' in the Forest of the Head God should have something to do with you—five years ago, the man in red told the innkeeper that he would come back to pick up the box soon, but he never showed up. The police found that the man in red When I saw the corpse of the man in the clothes, the date on the small ticket he was carrying was four years ago... This kind of time difference is really strange, but combined with some information I just inquired about, many things have a reasonable explanation—— I heard that a year ago, you found a hanged corpse near here.

"So, it may be that you transferred the small ticket and corresponding items from this strange suicide to the man in red, trying to blur the time of the latter's death and let him 'die' during the time period when you have an alibi. It is also because of this that there are many inconsistencies in the physical evidence, which led the police to come here to investigate."

A group of policemen kept nodding their heads, while glancing at Shenbao Daxiong.

This bastard who attacked the police has already proved his harm to the society with his actions, and I don't know what excuse he plans to use this time to exonerate himself...

Just as I was thinking about it, Shenbao Daxiong gritted his teeth and nodded suddenly: "Yes, I attacked the police, but I was just too scared at the time, and I instinctively wanted to run...and!"

He slapped his thigh and said angrily, "I'm not lying about one thing! That pervert really exists."

Chapter 669

As soon as Shenbao Daxiong mentioned the "mysterious man", he couldn't help being afraid:

"He asked me if I wanted to participate in his killing game and become the second victim last night, and he planned to torture me until I agreed—fortunately, I was determined not to let go, and refused to agree, otherwise, I must be dead now!

"Besides, I saw him in the bathroom just now. He must have been around here! Go and catch him, he is the mastermind here!"

However, this time, the police's reaction was completely different from the last time they heard these words.

Shancun Cao has also recovered from "Haunted House Distress", and the never-ending spirit of doubt has grown.

He stared contemptuously at Shenbao Daxiong with the eyes of a fool, and said coldly:

"Do you need to emphasize the existence of the 'mysterious man'? If he hadn't knocked you out and thrown you into the corridor at the door, you would have successfully attacked the police and escaped without worry. Heh, and if That person is really perverted, you can still live until now? According to my reasoning, the truth must be like this——

"After you committed the crime last night, you wanted to abscond, but you were discovered by a brave mysterious man. After you fled to the mountain mansion, he chased you all the way - I have been to that mansion, it is very hidden. Big night Yes, it is impossible for a guest not familiar with the vicinity to find it in the dark forest, so you must have hid in it by yourself, and then you were chased in by the mysterious hero and beat you up.

"As for why he didn't call the police. Cough, in fact, there are many unsung heroes in our society. They are like Masked Superman, who like to do good deeds without leaving their names..."

For the previous part, others are still listening carefully.

When Yamamura's words became more and more outrageous, a group of policemen in Gunma County skillfully ignored him and began to communicate in low voices.

Then suddenly a blind spot was discovered.

The criminal policeman looked at Shenbao Nobita, and tapped the pen twice on the table:

"You have been talking for so long, but you have never mentioned the appearance of that 'mysterious man' - what are his characteristics?"

Judging from the situation when the mysterious man appeared twice, it was indeed as the mountain village police department said, no matter how he looked at it, he seemed to be acting bravely.

But now, the disappeared "Qiandao Jizo" has not been found yet.And one more witness will make it easier to understand the whole story before and after the case.If the mysterious person is in the hotel and can be found, it is best to try to find it.

Hearing the police's inquiry, Shenbao Nobita hesitated for a moment.

Although after the police find the mysterious person, they will inevitably have to confront the mysterious person to see who is lying.

But surrounded by the police, the mysterious man couldn't beat him, he just had to have a thicker skin. Anyway, no one had any evidence for what happened last night.

On the contrary, if the mysterious person is not found, but has been wandering outside.Even if he escaped from prison in the future, what if he ran into that mysterious person by chance for the third time... Who knew at that time, whether the other party would kill him or not.

In short, the best situation is that the police will arrest the mysterious man based on the clues he provided and investigate the flaws.

——Shenbao Daxiong clearly remembered the scenes of these two encounters. He always felt that what the mysterious person said and the methods used to torment them were completely outlaws.Maybe that person really has a series of bloody cases behind him. In this way, once the mysterious person gets into the hands of the police, it will be difficult to leave.

……

So now, facing the police's question of "what is the mysterious man like?", Shenbao Daxiong is not hesitating to say what to say.

He just didn't see it very clearly.

——When he met the mysterious man for the first time, he was covered in a sack and saw nothing.

The second time, he was covered with an opaque cleaning bag.I don't know how long the cleaning bag had been left, and there was a handful of dust in it. After he opened his eyes, his eyes were always fogged and his vision was blurred.

Fortunately, I can see the general outline.

Shenbao Daxiong tried his best to recall the appearance of the mysterious man: "It's a man, tall, with a high hairline. He has a haircut, wears glasses... By the way, he also has a disgusting beard."

Toru Amuro: "..."

...how come the more you hear it, the more familiar it becomes.

Wait, this is exactly Kazami Yuya with a fake beard.

She was lazy and didn't wear a wig, and was seen by others...

I was brushing and keeping accounts in my mind, when I suddenly noticed a vague line of sight.

As soon as Amuro lowered his head, he saw that Conan was looking at his hair suspiciously, as if he wanted to observe the hairline.However, there is a broken hair blocking it, so I can't see clearly.

Toru Amuro: "..."

For a moment, he wanted to brush the hair on his forehead seemingly unintentionally, to show that his hairline was healthy and not as dangerous as Kazami.

But after thinking about it, this is too naive. Jiang Xia is not bad at doing this, but he is a calm policeman...

So in the end, I didn't see it.

Speaking of Wind Seeing...
