Conan's Corpse Picker

……

Under her seemingly unintentional stare.

Next to the car in front.

Saiduri Shimamura whispered a few words to Kogoro Mori.

Then he ran to the vending machine on the side and bought two bottles of drinks.

The location of the vending machine is closer to the car where Jiang Xia and Belmode are.

The lights in the car were not turned on, and Sayuri Shimamura failed to notice the scrutinizing eyes.

With her back to Kogoro Mori, she unscrewed the bottle cap of the drink, then quickly took out a box of medicine from her bag, opened it, took out a piece, and threw it into one of the drinks.

Belmode watched this scene, his eyes narrowed slightly.

However, under the light next to the vending machine, Sayuri Shimamura's place was reflected quite clearly, and Belmode could clearly see the medicine box in her hand—although the text on it was not clear because of the dark sky, but Judging by the color scheme, this seems to be a fast-acting sleeping pill.

This brand of medicine has a good reputation and effect, and it is sold in many pharmacies, so you can buy it anywhere.

Many people will buy a box and take it with them out of insomnia or other considerations.The same is true for Belmode, who now has a box in her bag.

"..." Fortunately, it's not poison...

Belmode slowly drank the coffee in his hand.

Since Mori Kogoro couldn't die for a while, her thoughts inevitably returned to Jiang Xia next to her.

She glanced sideways, and found that Jiang Xia was not looking at Mori Kogoro, but was looking down at her phone, as if she had already guessed what Sayuri Shimamura would do, or lost interest in the case.

Belmode looked at his quiet silhouette, habitually lost in thought: whether there will be other changes in the future, or the direction of "Mori Kogoro will not die" originally met Uzo's expectations, and he just made a bet , is testing her attitude?

Thinking of this, Belmode suddenly became curious.

She suddenly thought, if just now, she had bet that Kogoro Moori would live, what would the situation be like?

However, in any case, she knew too little about this strange case.

And on the other hand, if Uzo's attitude towards Mori Kogoro is different from what she just conspired about.Then Uzo deliberately drove himself here for a "ride", and it may be to keep an eye on the situation and prevent Mori Kogoro from dying in an accident...

There are too many possible speculations.

Belmode guessed for a long time, but it was difficult to determine the true meaning of Uzo's actions.I just feel that the young cadre next to me is a mystery.

Chapter 843 You Did It All

Belmode sighed silently.

——Uzo's mind is too difficult to read, and his behavior is always unpredictable.No wonder gin and vodka's guesses about him are always exaggerated to the point of over-interpretation.

Now, however, this behavior is understandable: facing an elusive genius, anyone will have some curiosity or sense of crisis.Especially those of them who are outside the law and need to act with extreme caution.

Since it is inevitable to deal with Uzo, it is necessary to try to delineate the possible upper and lower limits of Uzo.Only by anticipating in advance can we take measures in a timely manner when certain extreme situations occur-it is worthwhile to be careful when facing such a young man who can quietly take the lives of others and is still growing necessary.

……

next to.

Jiang Xia, who was carefully speculated by Belmode, actually didn't think about anything now, but was simply playing with her mobile phone to pass the time.

He just needs to stay by the side and avoid closing and opening his eyes when Kogoro Mori is thrown into the river by Sayuri Shimamura.

After all, Uncle Mao Li is a good person. He also has many good classmates, good drinking buddies, and good gambling friends, colleagues and friends... Jiang Xia really wants to be friends with those friends of his, and Mao Li Kogoro is undoubtedly a build a suitable bridge.

As for whether Sayuri Shimamura has any killing intent, Jiang Xia certainly doesn't need to keep staring at her.

——At this distance, let alone ghosts, even he can clearly smell the changes in the murderous aura on the opponent.

At present, it seems that Saiduri Shimamura does have some intentions to silence her, but she is always vacillating - people's minds are inherently complicated and changeable, not to mention the current situation, for Sayuri Shimamura, it is indeed worthy of entanglement:

Killing Kogoro Mori was certainly the safest way to seal the mouth, but Kogoro Mori had no grudge against her, and such a tall man couldn't be carried or twisted, so it was very troublesome to dispose of the corpse.

In comparison, it’s better to let him live and get an alibi from him——In Sayuri Shimamura’s impression, Kogoro Mori has always been a rather confused person, and he seems to be easily confused by beauty. Just in a drunk state, very easy to cheat.It's better to use it as a tool for making alibi.

Compared with silencing, the latter is a civilized and simple method, although the security is a little lower, but it is actually more favored by Sayuri Shimamura.

Sayuri Shimamura vacillates between "secrecy" and "convenience".

This caused the murderous aura on her body to gushe out from time to time, and then slowly loosened after rational thinking, and then couldn't help gushing out again, and loosened again...

Jiang Xia simply regarded it as a ghost sneaking activity after dinner, so that a few ghosts who were bored could find something to do.

Although there is a Belmode standing close at hand.

But since leaving the scene of the last crime, as the two of them were alone, the murderous aura on Belmod's body gradually faded unavoidably.Even if there is an occasional flicker in the middle, it is not enough for the ghosts to stalk, and they can only play Sayuri Shimamura.

……

Under Belmode's silent "watching".

Next to the car in front.

Mori Kogoro happily drank the drink offered by Sayuri Shimamura.

After a while, he collapsed on the seat and fell asleep snoring.

After taking a nap for more than ten minutes, Sayuri Shimamura pinched her to wake her up.

The two chatted and laughed a few words before continuing to drive on the road.

……

after they leave.

Jiang Xia sat in Belmode's sports car and started the fire.But it didn't keep up with the people in front.

He recalled the map, changed a road, and returned to Mihua Town leisurely.

Then he found a coffee shop that was still open next to his home, and walked in with Belmode.

……

On the way, Belmode didn't say anything, and followed him like a tourist following a tour guide, looking quite relaxed.

The two found a seat by the window and sat down, and the fragrant coffee was served.

Belmode held the porcelain cup, warmed his hands, and looked around silently, but he didn't see anyone or anything related to Mori Kogoro or Shimamura Sayuri.

Then look at Uzo, who is holding the drink list and looking intently at the opposite side.

Belmode tapped the cup with his fingertips for a moment, and silently swallowed the phrase "And then?"

"..." Wu Zuo brought her here, definitely not for drinking coffee, but for other purposes.

As for what he's going to do...

If Uzo wanted to say it, he would have said it long ago.

But now he has been silent, even if he asks, he will probably only hear a headache answer like "Guess what" just like before.

...Speaking of which, Belmode suddenly thought, Uzo's accent, which is not to be punched, is quite similar to Bourbon.Could it be that he was infected by that bastard during the business trip?

Tsk, there are too many messy people in the organization.Wu Zuo already has a lot of problems, if because of his excellent learning ability, he learns some troublesome habits...

It was snowing outside the window at some point.

Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, Belmode glanced at the beautiful scenery outside, closed her eyes, and decided to put these troublesome things behind her first. Anyway, she doesn't have any useful solutions at the moment, and it's useless to think about it.

She took a breath silently, and then exhaled slowly.Then he picked up the coffee and took a sip gracefully, making himself feel as comfortable and peaceful as Uzo on the opposite side.

……

They sat opposite each other in harmony for ten minutes.

Belmode put down the empty cup, and finally couldn't help but speak.

She played with her newly painted nails, didn't mention the bet, and just asked in a chatty way: "It's too boring to sit all the time. If it's still early, why don't you do something else first—what do you have next?" What arrangement?"

Across the table, Jiang Xia heard her talking, and finally looked away from the phone screen.

It happened that the waiter approached with a tray.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Belmode stopped talking, leaned forward slightly, and leaned against the back of the chair again, pausing the conversation.

However, on the other side, Wu Zuo didn't seem to have the idea of ​​"keeping the next conversation between the two cadres a secret".

He was not at all afraid that the waiter next to him would hear him, so he naturally asked Belmod: "What are your plans for next?"

Belmode: "...?"

There was a soft click.

The waiter put down the juice, took away the empty cup, and left with a bow. He didn't think there was anything wrong with the two of them—just listening to the sentence just now, their conversation was quite normal.

When the waiter walked away, Jiang Xia looked at Belmode again.

This time, he finally had a little awareness of the "mysterious man in black", lowered his voice, and smiled at the person across the table: "Of course, you have the final say on tonight's itinerary—your status is over 20 years old." You're old, I saw your fake certificate when I bought wine.

"Of course adults have to shoulder the responsibilities of adults, how can you even ask others about the itinerary?"

Chapter 844 Belmode: Be Sober

Belmode's forehead twitched, as if he had been hit by something illusory on the head.

"..." After all, Wu Zuo didn't want to answer and kicked the question back as it was.Or did he feel that it was a coincidence that there were two cases in a row, so he threw the possible blame over in advance?

Belmode pushed away the coffee cup, facing Uzo's condemning and unreasonable words, he smirked and said "Indeed".

Then secretly decided not to ask this little bastard any more questions in the future.

She took the freshly served juice, bit the straw like grinding her teeth at an angle that Jiang Xia couldn't see, and drank it leisurely.

……

Kogoro Mori and Sayuri Shimamura, because "Mr. Mori seems to be sleepy" at this time, ended their racing time and returned to Mihua Town.

The two homes are not far from each other.

Saiduri Shimamura parked her car in the parking lot of her apartment, and warmly invited Kogoro Mori to go upstairs for a drink to sober up.

Mori Kogoro had just had a bellyful of wind, and was a little cold. At this time, when he heard the invitation from the beauty, he readily accepted it.

The two went up to the corridor on the second floor of the apartment together.
