Conan's Corpse Picker

Taking a closer look, I found that there was a piece of hard candy slowly melting in my mouth.

Mori Kogoro: "..." When did you eat the candy... Maybe you bought it in Shibahama before.

He yawned drunkenly, quickly gave up thinking, walked out of the station, and walked towards his home.

The station was a few streets away from the Mori Detective Agency.

On the way, when he passed the back door of Mihua Middle School, a gust of wind blew by, and a few cherry blossoms fell from his field of vision.

Mori Kogoro sneezed violently when the petals passed by the tip of his nose.He rubbed his nose, raised his head, and saw the night cherry blossoms blooming and falling with the wind, he was stunned for a moment: it is really elegant scenery.

As I said that, I wanted to take out my phone to take a picture as a souvenir.

However, the phone was dead.

"..."

Mori Kogoro put away his phone silently, and comforted himself in his heart: Don’t fall into the bad habit of young people to take pictures of everything they see. As expected, it is most meaningful to record this kind of beauty with your own eyes.

Next to it, there is a section of steps leading to the back door of Mihua Middle School.Mori Kogoro walked over with his feet fluttering, sat down on it as a stool, and looked up quietly admiring the cherry blossoms.

After a few seconds of appreciating, sleepiness surged up again.

But this time, before falling asleep, a sound of footsteps came from a nearby apartment, quickly approaching, and passed in front of Mori Kogoro

——Sachiko Shimamura didn't see someone sitting in the corner of the stairs. After passing Kogoro Mori, she ran straight to a car parked on the side of the road, opened the door, and threw a package of things into the car.

Shocked by this movement, Mori Kogoro opened his eyes in a daze.

He looked around and saw a familiar woman. He stood up in surprise and walked over to say hello: "Haha, Miss Sayuri? What a coincidence!"

Saiduri Shimamura didn't expect that there was someone next to her, and she was shocked, and the bag in her hand fell back into the car.

She straightened up quickly, and looked at Kogoro Mori intently.As the man approached, a smoky smell of alcohol rushed towards him.

Saiduri Shimamura's heart rate was soaring.At this moment, seeing Kogoro Mori drunk, she suddenly thought of something and forcibly calmed down.

She greeted her with a smile, and at the same time tightly grasped the hard object in the bag: "It turned out to be Mr. Maori, long time no see."

——Sayuri Shimamura is the president of an export company. The two live not far away, and they met before when they were eating in Poirot's Cafe.

While exchanging greetings, a distant bell rang.

Kogoro Mori heard the movement representing "the hour", touched the back of his head, and muttered: "It's only eight o'clock..." He suddenly remembered something, looked at Sayuri Shimamura, and suggested, "Why don't we go have a drink together?" A cup?"

——Could it be that there are such beautiful cherry blossoms, and such a beautiful chance encounter, if you don’t drink a glass of wine together, you always feel like a waste of the night.

In the corner of the wall, a black cloud treading snow cat poked its head out soundlessly, and eavesdropped on their movements.

Of course Sayuri Shimamura couldn't find the black cat hiding in the corner at night.

Her attention was now on Kogoro Mouri.

Hearing the other party's muttering, she immediately became enthusiastic: "Haha, I don't like drinking. But it's really early, how about... let's go for a ride together?"

She blinked playfully: "I know a lot of beautiful night scenes, and I've always wanted to go there before, but it's not interesting to drive alone, and my friends don't have much time..."

Kogoro Moori punched his palm, and said cheerfully, "Then I'll go for a ride with you! It just so happens that I drank too much today."

The two hit it off.

Sayuri Shimamura reversed the car from the side of the road.Then Mori Kogoro opened the door and got into the car.

……

When they start their happy ride.

Shibahama Town is a few stations away.

In the rooftop restaurant, Jiang Xia ate the new snacks while waiting for Mao Lilan to report. At the same time, he took the time to ask about the situation of Ganfanmao. The whole evening was quite fulfilling.

Chapter 833

The cat puppet is small in size, and it is extremely murderous without inflating into a leopard.Even if the distance from the main body is extended, as long as it is not too far away, the consumption of murderous energy will usually not exceed that of a humanoid puppet.

However, as the distance becomes farther, the communication delay between them will inevitably become very high.

Before Jiang Xia could hear the cat's ghostly voice, Mao Lilan's voice sounded in his ear: "Jiang Xia, someone is dead down there!"

Conan: "!"

Jiang Xia also synchronized: "!"

……

The two detectives, both true and false, got up at the same time, and while listening to Mao Lilan's description of the situation at the time, they followed her to the elevator entrance and took the elevator down.

The three of them went down from the top floor to the first floor, and ran to the lounge.

The elderly guard seemed to have finally sensed something was wrong, and he was poking his head around the door of the lounge suspiciously, wondering what happened.

Nakamura Yusuke had already escaped from the room containing the corpse. At this time, he was sitting at the door with his head buried in his palm, looking shocked and sad.

Three high school students ran close and stopped in front of him.

Belmode, who was dressed as a bad girl, came out from nowhere and sneaked into the team without making a sound.

……

Jiang Xia looked at Yusuke Nakamura's calf, and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

"Mr. Jiang Xia, Yukiko..." Yusuke Nakamura sighed sadly in the middle of speaking.He looked at the door of the lounge, as if he couldn't continue, and finally just shook his head.

A group of people followed his line of sight and looked towards the lounge, together with the information provided by Mao Lilan just now.As a qualified high school student detective...

Jiang Xia didn't say any more to Nakamura Yusuke.

He quickly ran to the lounge and opened the door.

Pushing and looking down.

Sure enough, seeing the side, Conan also ran over, and the two moved almost in sync.

Jiang Xia withdrew her gaze, and secretly nodded with satisfaction.

——I am becoming more and more like a serious detective.

……

The two entered the lounge, came to a corner of the room, and lifted the blanket covering the floor.

A long-haired woman emerged from under the blanket.The woman lay on the ground, motionless, her hair disheveled.

Jiang Xia brushed aside her thick hair, poked at the side of her neck, and sighed: "... really dead."

…This is not a sabotage scene, this is just a censorship measure accompanied by first aid measures.After all, Nakamura Yusuke said before that she "may" be dead.Didn't say he was dead.

Next to it, Conan really had no objection to this kind of inspection.

He just frowned and looked at the neck of the corpse - there were obvious pinch marks there, and even the fingerprints were clearly discernible.

……

Not long after, the police arrived with a team.

It was the busy Megure Police Department again.

"We asked the doorman in charge of keeping the keys to the lounge—the only ones who came to borrow the keys today are members of your band." Megure Police Department said, looking at Yusuke Nakamura, the leader of the band, "Can you contact How about some other people?"

Nakamura Yusuke nodded and wiped his face.Like trying to recover from grief.

Then he started contacting a few colleagues.

——Besides him and the deceased, there were three other people in the band.

……

While the forensics department is still preparing tools.

Conan hid next to Jiang Xia, and sneakily pushed the dead man's hair away, and saw her shoulder - there was a strange green mark on her shoulder.

"...What is this?" Conan approached suspiciously.

Jiang Xia took a closer look: "Look at the material, it's a bit like a crayon."

"...Crayons?" Conan looked around, but there was nothing related to crayons in the room.

Instead, when he raised his head, he was immediately spotted by the sharp-eyed police.

Miwako Sato came over, ruthlessly took him away, and added by the way: "Don't disturb your brother Jiang Xia to solve the case."

Conan: "..." He looked at Jiang Xia who was left alone, and walked away unwillingly.Obviously he is also a detective!

Belmode looked at Conan who had just been carried out of the door and immediately tried to slip back to the side of the corpse, smiled, and confirmed a certain guess in his heart.

Then she ignored this unsuspecting detective contest and turned to Mao Lilan.

……

Mao Lilan was standing in the corridor, leaning against the wall opposite the lounge, looking down at the door silently.

Belmode: "..." Angel is probably feeling sad for the person who lost his life.Although she felt that she didn't need to give too much affection to this kind of passer-by who hadn't met a few times, but...

She walked to Mao Lilan and wanted to say a few words of comfort.

But when he got closer, he could see her face clearly through Mao Lilan's hanging hair.Belmode suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"..." How does it feel, judging from Angel's expression, she doesn't seem to be afraid of sadness, but seems to be... thinking?

Belmode hesitated and asked, "What's wrong?"

Mao Lilan was stunned, recovered from her contemplation, and touched her chin: "I always feel a sense of disobedience, but I can't figure out what's wrong..."

Belmode: "...that's it."

She watched Mao Lilan touch her chin, and the corners of her eyes twitched, and she suddenly felt that this appearance coincided with Uzuo's when he was thinking.

... Then think about it carefully, it seems that the same type of action, cool_guy used to love to do it when he was not getting smaller.

Belmode: "..." Detectives are really contagious.

Angel used to be weak but strong.Although it is still the same now, but I always feel that the word order should be changed, and it should be changed to strong yet weak... The image of a muscular girl suddenly appeared in her mind.

Belmode was silent for a while, and pressed the strange picture in his mind.

She walked to Mao Lilan, followed her gaze, and glanced at the scene in front of her.
