Conan's Corpse Picker

However, the situation was a little better than she thought.

——The overly optimistic muscular man and Minagawa Katsuhiko failed to fight in the end.

The gentle Mrs. Minagawa came out of the kitchen at some point.

After admonishing her youngest son who ate chocolate, she brought over some desserts: "Okay, don't fight, let's have some refreshments to relieve the bar."

Chapter 742 Matsuda's Strange Ability

On the tray distributed by Mrs. Minagawa, there were some coffee and handmade cakes, emitting a tempting aroma of food from a distance.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko both love sweets, and Conan also likes this one. When he was a male high school student, he was embarrassed to eat it every day. Now that he has become smaller, he often follows the Boy Detective Team and Jiang Xia from Huiyuan Ai. Rubbing sweets.

The three of them briefly broke away from the oppressive atmosphere of the college students, breathed a sigh of relief, dragged past the cake and coffee, and began to pass the time with snacks.

……

Jiang Xia found her motorcycle parked nearby, and drove towards the direction where the ghosts vaguely sensed.

After walking more than ten meters, the ghosts started muttering again—that mass of murderous aura was approaching them quickly.

Not long after, an ordinary Toyota appeared on the empty road ahead.

As it quickly approached in the field of vision, Jiang Xia also felt the murderous aura - the source of the murderous aura was in the car, which faintly smelled of sweet and greasy perfume.

"...?"

Jiang Xia glanced at Matsuda Jinpei with a complicated expression, remembering that it was the first to discover the source of murderous aura just now.

Matsuda Jinhei met his gaze, and a "?" appeared cautiously above his head.After a moment of doubt, it suddenly understood what Jiang Xia was thinking, and hastily waved his hands to deny it—it didn't like this smell, but it was more sensitive to murderous aura of this nature...

It doesn't matter what flavor of murderous spirit the ghost likes.Jiang Xia quickly gave up the pastime of "observing the habits of ghosts" - this kind of thing is suitable for doing when you have nothing to do.Now, obviously, it is not in that kind of "idle" time period.

He looked back at the car driving this way.

Compared with just now, the distance between Toyota and him at this time has been greatly shortened again.

Through the front window, the driver can be vaguely seen.The man was wearing a hood that covered his forehead, and the mask tightly covered the lower half of his face, and the gap between the upper and lower sides was covered with sunglasses.On the straight road, the driver kept stepping on the accelerator, and quickly passed Jiang Xia.

At the moment of approaching, Jiang Xia looked at the car, his whole body tensed up slightly, and then slowly returned to his original state, giving up the idea of ​​jumping into the car and knocking the people inside when he passed by... Find out who exactly is in the car.In case it is a colleague or boss who needs to deal with frequently in the future, it will be a bit embarrassing to see him again.

The two parties driving opposite each other missed each other, the distance was shortened to the extreme, and then they quickly turned their backs and moved away.

As the vehicle went away, Jiang Xia turned the front of the car, held up his helmet, and followed subconsciously.

But after driving for a while, the phone vibrated.

He kept the speed of the car, took out his phone and checked it, only to find that it was from Mao Lilan.

[An accident happened here!Mr. Minagawa suddenly fell to the ground, and it was said that he was out of breath.Conan said that he didn't seem like a sudden death, but more like poisoning...]

"..."

... something happened so soon?

Jiang Xia is a little different.However, thinking of Minagawa Katsuhiko's ability to pull hatred, the messy emotional vortex around him, and the atmosphere at the fraternity party, I feel that this is not too strange...

He put away his mobile phone, looked at the direction the vehicle was leaving, and hesitated for a moment.

... There was a murder case at the party I just stayed at, and there were not too many people at the party.When the police arrived and found that he was not there, they would definitely look for him again.But now, he still doesn't know exactly where the murderous car is going.If you are too far away, you may have some trouble following the past.

In addition, there are very few cars on this section of the road, and even fewer motorcycles.Tracking is easy to be discovered... Fortunately, he learned from Conan and Amuro Toru the excellent quality that a detective should have-carrying a transmitter and a bug.

The moment he passed the car just now, Jiang Xia threw one onto it, and saw it sticking to the roof of the car.

He took out his phone, found the tracking software, and clicked on it.

The little red dot above is heading all the way to the urban area, and the signal is stable.

Jiang Xia nodded secretly, turned the motorcycle in satisfaction, and returned to the meeting place just now.

……

a few minutes ago.

Minagawa Katsuhiko doesn't like sweets, and he's in a bad mood right now.For the refreshments brought by Mrs. Minagawa, he only drank a cup of coffee, and then pushed away the tray in front of him irritably, intending to go to the yard, smoke a cigarette and look at the scenery to relieve his mood.

However, when I pinched the cigarette case, it was already empty.

The man with glasses saw it sharply, took out his cigarette, and threw it to him in the air.

Minagawa Katsuhiko frowned and shook out one, took it and pushed open the door, and walked into the yard.

Ten seconds later, Komi Watanabe also got up, took a box of chocolates, and chased after her with a reddish face.

As soon as the center of the storm left, the atmosphere in the room eased slightly.

Junxiu Wakamatsu moved his butt, put his chin on the side of Mao Lilan, and continued his career of flirting with girls: "Xiaolan, that..." He clasped his hands together and gestured shyly.

Mao Lilan was a little puzzled: "...Huh?"

Junxiu Wakamatsu hinted at failure, so he had to say, "Where's my chocolate?"

Mao Lilan: "Ah, this..."

She did make a piece.

But obviously not for Toshihiko Wakamatsu...

Mao Lilan smiled awkwardly, then suddenly remembered the way Suzuki Sonoko had handled her piece of chocolate just now, and decided to learn it.

Just as she was about to take out the chocolate, she said "Why don't we share it together" and then chopped it into pieces.

But at this moment, a scream suddenly came from the yard.

Conan was startled, and quickly looked away from Wakamatsu Junxiu, got up and ran into the yard.

Someone took the lead, and the others came back to their senses and rushed out one after another.

……

Running around the corner of the house, he saw Katsuhiko Minagawa lying on the ground in the front yard without any ups and downs.

He held the smoke in one hand, and the misty white smoke rose slowly.The other hand rested on the ground, and beside it lay a piece of chocolate that had been bitten a few times.

A few meters away, Watanabe Komi covered her mouth in shock, and fell to the ground, staring blankly at Katsuhiko Minagawa who suddenly fell to the ground—she was the one who made the scream just now.

"Keyan?" Mrs. Minagawa was stunned, and then, ignoring the elegant kimono on her body, she threw herself beside him and knelt on the ground, "Keyan, what's wrong with you!?"

When Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko heard the screams, they instinctively picked up their phones.

Since they didn't know if the person was still alive, they gave first aid this time.

After confirming that Minagawa Katsuhiko was dead, Mao Lilan sighed and dialed 110 silently.

After reporting to the police, hang up the phone.

Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment, while listening to the movement next to her, she sent the situation to Jiang Xia who had wandered somewhere.

If this is a homicide case, Jiang Xia who was present just now is regarded as a witness, and will eventually be found by the police.Moreover, Mao Lilan remembered the chat with Suzuki Sonoko in the past—they found that Jiang Xia seemed to like to solve cases, maybe it made him feel the value of his existence.

"..." She actually didn't want Jiang Xia to be involved in the case.

But since the matter has already happened, why not let Jiang Xia come over and take a look...

Chapter 743

With Mori Ran and Suzuki Sonoko present, the ambulance and police car always came faster than usual.

The Mumu Police Department quickly brought people to arrive.

When he arrived in the yard, he looked at the open space with a serious expression, and first saw Conan who was looking for clues at the scene.

The corner of Mumu Police Department's eyes twitched, trying to drive this overly daring kid away from the scene.

But before he could speak, someone approached from behind.Mu Mu Police Department turned his head and saw Jiang Xia.

"..." It's been a long time since I've seen this efficient detective, and I miss him for a while.In the past few days, I don't know if it was because Jiang Xia was on a business trip, but he always felt that there were fewer murders in Mihua Town than usual.But less doesn't mean zero - with the comparison, the Mu Mu Police Department has a clearer realization of how agile Jiang Xia usually solves the case.

"How is it, Brother Jiang Xia." Mu Mu Police Department quickly approached, pricking up his ears to hear the spoiler, he asked in a low voice, "Do you have any ideas?"

"..." Jiang Xia also reminded him in a low voice, "I left for a while just now, and I just came back now, so I need to look for possible clues."

"...That's right." Mumu Police Department nodded.

So he ran to the corpse again and urged the investigators: "Try to hurry up."

Today's manpower is not enough, Sato Miwako took people to deal with another murder case.

If his side ends early, maybe he can recommend Jiang Xia to go there for a walk... Good detectives, let's hang out together.

……

The autopsy soon had preliminary results, and Minagawa Katsuhiko died of pesticide poisoning.

The police also conducted tests on physical evidence next to the body.

The first thing to come out was the plate of chocolate that fell next to the corpse and had been bitten twice—it was mixed with pesticides.It was sent by Watanabe Komi.

"Why did you kill him?!" Guan Guxiang overheard the conclusion, and looked at Komi Watanabe angrily, "Today is Valentine's Day, if someone you like gives him chocolate, he will definitely eat it—you rely on him liking you, give him He poisoned? How could he be sorry for you!"

Komi Watanabe was very innocent, sobbing: "I, I didn't..."

The man with glasses was stunned for a moment, with a strange expression on his face.

At this time, another policeman also ran over holding the evidence bag:

"Police, there is poison in the smoke!"

Guan Guxiang looked over again in embarrassment.

She liked the dead, and she cared more about this murder case.Hear this new lead.Guan Guxiang quickly remembered the key point.

She left Watanabe Haomi behind and glared at the man with glasses: "He's finished smoking his own cigarette, and when he went out, he took the cigarette you handed him!"

The man with glasses sighed, like the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

He straightened his back and admitted it directly: "Yes, it was me who poisoned me - I hated him for a long time, he has been playing me for a fool, and ruined your precious heart. Hmph, he used to always forget I bought cigarettes, so I put poison on the filter, unexpectedly today, he just asked me for cigarettes..."

"..." Jiang Xia watched for a while, and before the Mumu Police Department walked towards the man with glasses and said the sentence "Please come with us", he said, "Only the filter tip of that cigarette is poisonous?"

The inspector and the man with glasses were startled, and subconsciously nodded at the same time.

"Then don't rush to take the blame."
