Conan's Corpse Picker

She silently took a sip of the wine in her hand.He murmured in his heart how diligent Uzo was in this aspect, and at the same time followed Uzo's line of sight, Weidai looked over curiously: I don't know which unlucky ghost is being targeted by Uzo this time... huh? ?

……Maori Kogoro? !

Belmode's face changed slightly, and the whole figure accidentally stepped on the air when going down the stairs, and his heart suddenly hung up.

At this time, the street below the building.Under the reflection of street lamps and shop door lights, you can see Mori Kogoro walking shoulder to shoulder with an uncle of the same age.Both of them looked very drunk.

Belmode looked at Uzo, at those two people, and then at Uzo...

After careful comparison, she confirmed it.

——Uzo's dangerous eyes full of expectation fell on the place where Mori Kogoro was.

Belmode: "..." Mori Kogoro is Angel's father.According to my previous speculation, Uzo cared a lot about angel and cool_guy, so he probably wouldn't suddenly attack Mori Kogoro... Maybe Uzo was actually eyeing the uncle next to Mori? ——The two people are so close, and they are staggeringly embracing each other. It is indeed difficult to distinguish the specific point of Uzo's sight in detail from this distance.

While Belmode was so lucky to think.

below the building.

Mori Kogoro and his uncle friend walked to the side of the street and hailed a taxi.

Then the friend got in, closed the door with a click, and the taxi sped away.

Mori Kogoro didn't go with him. He stood drunkenly on the side of the street and waved to his friend in the taxi to see him off—the reunion reception of the two uncles seemed to be over.

"..." Belmode looked at the car driving away, and then at Jiang Xia.

Then he found that Wu Zuo's gaze didn't move with the taxi that was going away.

Instead, it still stays on Mori Kogoro.

Belmode: "...?"

……

At the foot of the building.

Mori Kogoro, who had already had a round of drinking, knew nothing about the gaze from above his head.

He yawned drunkenly, reached into his pocket and fumbled a few times, took out his phone, trying to press the light to check the time.

However, after pressing it for a long time, the phone screen still failed to light up.

Mori Kogoro touched the back of his head suspiciously, and then he remembered slowly - before going to bed yesterday, he forgot to charge his phone.Not long ago, the phone was automatically turned off when it ran out of power.

"..." Mori Kogoro had no choice but to raise his head, looked at the dark sky, estimated the time with his brain paralyzed by alcohol, and felt that it was already very late.

Although he remembered that the children were eating nearby, Mori Kogoro tried hard to think for a long time, but couldn't remember which restaurant they went to just now.He simply stopped meddling and staggered towards the station, intending to go home and rest by himself.

……

The roof of the building, the edge of the newly opened rooftop restaurant.

Jiang Xia watched Mori Kogoro walk towards the station.He remembered the murderous aura he captured in the apartment near Mihua Middle School when he went out.

He has some impressions of this case, and judging from the current traveling route of Mori Kogoro and his usual appearance after being drunk, Mori Kogoro may accidentally bump into that case.

……

Belmode was secretly thinking about the situation.

Suddenly, I heard Uzuo looking at Mori Kogoro's back, and muttered in a low voice, "It's just this time to go back, and the phone is dead..."

He rested his elbows on the railing, as if thinking about something.He paused for a moment, probably thinking about it, and suddenly smiled faintly, but didn't say the following words.

"..." Belmode felt more and more uneasy the more he looked at it.

She rubbed the wine glass subconsciously with her fingers, and then murmured in her heart: Uzo really won't let Angel's father go?

It couldn't be because Mori Kogoro and angel stopped Uzo from going to the bar just now, so he was held hostage... In Uzo's heart, Mori Kogoro's status is probably far worse than that of cool_guy and angel .

However, Belmode thought about it rationally, and quickly realized that from what Uzo said just now, even if Mori Kogoro was really related to a certain "murder drama" arranged by Uzo, this drunk uncle was not a drama The protagonist in the novel is more like a passerby who was accidentally involved.

However, judging from Uzuo's interest just now, even if Mori Kogoro joined as a "guest role", his upcoming role in that future case, or "play role"... I'm afraid it won't be real It's as easy as a cameo.

Belmode: "..." But it must not be a "surprise" such as the guest star of the dead, or the No. 2 murderer.According to the survey when she first came to Japan, Uzo was really nice to angel and cool_guy, but to Mori Kogoro...

Belmode didn't focus on investigating this aspect, and suddenly encountered this situation at this time, and he really didn't know what to do.

Chapter 827

Anyway, from Belmode's point of view, for the sake of Angel's mood, and the harmony between the three children in the future...

She couldn't sit back and watch Mori Kogoro get killed by a "murderous drama" that Uzo randomly unfolded.

"..." I had to think of a way to rescue him from Wu Zuo's hands.

However, thinking about it carefully, Wu Zuo didn't necessarily want to kill people.

Maybe he just wanted to play a little prank on Mori Kogoro, to tease and take revenge on the elder who didn't let him into the bar.

……

In short, the current situation is unclear.

Belmode felt that he couldn't mess with himself.

"I remember just now, on the way here, you said that there is a task that needs my help. It should refer to the matter of dealing with Sindora." Belmod walked to Jiang Xia's side and spoke in a low voice as if nothing had happened, "This juncture Now, if someone related to you has an accident, won't it easily attract the attention of the police?"

Uzuo was blowing the night breeze head-on, and didn't care about her advice: "Even if I don't do anything, I still have a strong sense of presence in the eyes of the police. What does it matter to me? I'm just passing by and trying to solve a case - only the murderers are to blame for breaking the law."

Belmod: "..."

She had some words in her mind, but she really didn't know what to say, so that Uzo could realize what Kogoro Mori meant to Angel without revealing herself——as the "Belmod" in the organization, she always You can't just say something like "If that guy dies, Xiaolan will be very sad"...

Just as she was thinking, Uzo suddenly turned her head and looked at her with interest: "You seem to care about Uncle Maori very much. Is there anything on him... or around him that attracts you?"

"..." Belmode's face was calm, but cold sweat broke out silently behind him.

...Although Uzo used interrogative sentences, Belmode, who had a ghost in his heart, was really worried that his feelings for angel and cool_guy would be exposed, even if the insider was Uzo.

——Those two children were her unavoidable handle and weakness.And Belmode's character and identity made her instinctively want to keep this news firmly hidden and never be known by anyone.

And, Belmode thought.

How would Uzo react if he found out?

...Thinking of this, Belmode couldn't help but think of the piles of innocent passers-by who were framed by Uzo for no reason in the newspaper.

"..." With Uzo's dangerous personality like a shadow hunter, which is completely opposite to his appearance.Belmode couldn't imagine that after the truth was exposed, she and Uzo shook hands with each other in a friendly way: "You want to protect Shinichi and Xiaolan? Oh, what a coincidence that I am too. Let's be allies!"... Such a situation.

This is impossible.

On the contrary, at that time, maybe Uzo will suspend the murder of Bourbon just because of inexplicable reasons such as "Bermod's situation is too similar to him in this matter, and the person setting overlaps", and he will concentrate on dealing with it instead. she.

Or think that Belmode, an insider who also knows "Kudo Shinichi = Conan", is also a threat, and then in order to prevent cool_guy from being silenced by the organization, return to the previous speculation and concentrate on murdering her.

... In short, it is difficult to end.

Gin and vodka have seen too many cases summarized, and even Belmode, who is confident and good at grasping people's hearts, inevitably has a little fear of Uzo.And she didn't want to be an enemy of Uzo.

In short, from all aspects, Belmode felt that he should try to conceal this news as much as possible.Unless after further observation, it is determined that Uzo's aggressiveness is not as strong as the newspapers...

Fortunately, Belmode thought, he was an actor after all.He is very good at manipulating subtle expressions, and has also studied the human heart.

Compared with others, she obviously has certain advantages when facing Uzo.

A series of thoughts flashed like lightning.

Soon, facing Jiang Xia's question.Belmode smiled skillfully and mysteriously:

"I was just wondering, what fun script did you write?

"Being a spectator for a long time will feel boring. After all, the motives, methods, techniques of murder, and the hatred and entanglement between people... In the final analysis, there are only a few kinds. Arrange and combine over and over again, watch more You can even guess the next step of development.”

In the moonlight, Belmode turned around and leaned his back against the railing.

She raised the wine glass in her hand and lightly touched the glass in Jiang Xia's hand.

In the clear and low voice, Belmode looked into Jiang Xia's eyes, lowered his voice, and there was a hint of coaxing and request in his tone: "Show me the perspective behind the scenes, huh?—I want to know that the world is in your eyes , what exactly does it look like?"

When clinking glasses, the froth in her cup splashed like starlight.

...and then fell into Jiang Xia's juice glass.

Jiang Xia looked down slightly, looking at the two cups that were incompatible with the atmosphere: "..."

Belmode followed his line of sight subconsciously.Realizing something, the corners of his eyes twitched imperceptibly.

"..." She just felt that when she said this, she should clink glasses with meaning - this is a sense of ritual.In the past, when she was discussing matters with other organization cadres, she often liked to hold a glass of wine in her hand... But at that time, they were all beautiful and clear crystal glasses, and the glasses were also high-end red wine with the aroma of wine.

And now...

Belmode glanced at the huge draft beer mug in his hand.

Look at the bright yellow juice in Uzuo's hand again.

There was a brief silence.

"..." Fortunately, Uzo didn't seem to care about these details.

When Belmode held his breath and wanted to hear the spoiler.

Jiang Xia walked to the side, under the smiling gaze of the staff in the distance, put down the juice, changed to a glass of cola that looked calmer in color, and then added a piece of rounded ice to it like a spirit.

Looking down, I feel that this is more formal than juice.

Only then did he take a brand new drink, and walked back to Belmode as if nothing had happened, and continued the topic just now.

"Behind the scene is the most boring. Although at first glance, the method and emotion of the murder are indeed limited. But within those few broad categories, every detail is different-like the three primary colors, mixed together in various proportions , can finally give birth to dazzling colors."

Jiang Xia imitated Belmode's accent, talking nonsense mysteriously and seriously:

"Compared with the unpredictable effects of emotions and techniques, there is no insurmountable difficulty in a case as long as it is committed by a person. Another person can do the same thing-in other words , the 'behind-the-scenes perspective' you want to see is nothing more than some boring journals."

Chapter 828 Cadre Battle

Belmode listened and felt that it made sense.

Moreover, after hearing what Wu Zuo said, she suddenly thought of her colleagues who had been tortured a lot:

No wonder Uzo is always obsessed with attracting audiences to appreciate his "drama", and even seems a bit unscrupulous in attracting people - this is probably because in Uzo's eyes, the "drama" he planned by himself is actually very boring , what is interesting is only the real struggle between the murderer and the deceased in hatred, and the audience's reaction to it.

"..." But he understood, Belmode did not give up the plan to "trick out what Uzo wanted to do to Mori Kogoro".
