Conan's Corpse Picker

"I'm here to help! Who knows that Heiji actually said that I was in the way, and asked me to go shopping alone to buy special products-is this something a person should do! Heh, you look down on people!" Speaking of this, she The fragility and panic in her eyes disappeared, and she couldn't help but clenched her fists angrily, a piece of rope in her hand was crunched, and powder faintly fell from her delicate white fingers.

Jiang Xia has become accustomed to the weird fighting power of this group of "weak high school girls".

While listening, he calmly covered the coffin next to him and put it back in place.

Then he said thoughtfully: "What you did just now... is there really a problem with this troupe?"

"Hmm! The problem is big." Yuan Shan and Ye came back to their senses and continued:

"I couldn't get angry, so when Heiji was watching the rehearsal at the front, I sneaked to the back to investigate.

"While checking in this prop room, the rehearsal seemed to be over, I heard footsteps approaching this room... Well, you know, trespassing on other people's prop rooms is not good, so I hid .

"I thought the person who came in was the staff who stored the props, but unexpectedly it was the Komazuka Hiroshi who played the 'king' in the masquerade—that super famous old actor!

"He stayed by the sword stand for a while, replaced a sword on it, and then muttered eerily into the phone—"

Yuan Shan and Ye changed into an old man's vicissitudes of voice: "'Jingzi, I don't know where you have been, but you must read the latest news--that bastard who played with your feelings is about to die unexpectedly. His The chest full of sin will be pierced by the sword of judgment.'”

"He must have replaced the retractable prop sword with a real sword! ——It was the last rehearsal just now, and when the real performance starts later, the prince's chest will be pierced by the minister's 'sword' , Komazuka Hiroshi must take this opportunity to kill the prince!"

"Before I came, I didn't expect that someone would actually want to harm someone. And he laughed so scary, I, I was really shocked, and accidentally knocked off a prop ball next to him. Subconsciously bent down to pick it up, he just Suddenly, he gave me a shock from behind."

"When I wake up later, I will be in the coffin." Yuan Shan and Ye touched their waist with tears in their eyes, "He actually carries an electric shock device with him, he really is not a serious person!"

Jiang Xia's eyes fluttered indistinctly: "..." To be honest, he also brought an electric shock device...

After all, this kind of thing seems to have a special attack effect on people with high force values, and can easily knock down terrifying opponents across levels.

The only problem is, I don't know if this is only effective for high school girls, or if it can be used by men... If you meet Akai Shuichi some other day, you can ask "Uzo" to try it with it.

……

Jiang Xia quickly recovered, nodded as if nothing had happened, and echoed what Yuan Shan and Ye said just now: "Indeed, he must have planned it for a long time."

After a pause, he deliberately asked his classmates for their opinions: "What are you going to do next, go to Hattori first?"

Yuan Shan and Ye recalled the quarrel just now, and looked at Jiang Xia, who was an excellent helper in solving the case, and shook their heads decisively: "Don't look for it!"

After all, she is the daughter of the Chief Criminal Officer of the Osaka Prefecture Police, and Toyama and Ye know a lot about some things.

She rubbed her chin and said sadly: "It's just that the real and fake swords have been replaced, and nothing has happened. At this level, even the police can't deal with it. The 'king' can completely quibble and say, 'I'm old. , props misplaced’, or something like that, send the police away.”

Jiang Xia nodded, and continued her words: "And if things are fooled by him, the victim 'Prince' who is targeted by him can't be vigilant, and they are performing in the same theater troupe. There will be homicides—in that case, why not make things bigger?"

"Making things bigger?" Yuan Shan and Ye Di low repeated the word.Hattori Heiji's personality is relatively straightforward, and the two of them rarely deal with incidents in a roundabout way. She looked at Jiang Xia curiously, "How to do it?"

Jiang Xia sat on the coffin opposite her, like a leisurely playwright: "I am afraid that only the person concerned will really care about such a big or small matter as 'being stabbed by a sword' Who is the 'Prince Through the Chest'?"

"It's Robert." Yuan Shan and Ye were deeply impressed by this little fresh meat actor—not all because of his handsome appearance, but because he has very pink hair, which I heard was natural, and I don't know if it is Where did the wonderful lineage come from.

Listening to Jiang Xia's words, her eyes lit up: "I know the location of his lounge, I passed by there when I came here."

Chapter 991 The End of the Prince

Jiang Xia nodded approvingly: "In this case, let's not worry about the real sword for now - as long as you pretend to be a staff member and reveal this news to 'Prince' before the show, he will definitely have a big reaction. Be vigilant Sex will increase accordingly."

"Okay!" Yuan Shan and Ye stood up, feeling that things had become more interesting... Cough, no, the entrustment has become more interesting.

But soon, she looked at Jiang Xia, then at herself, and said hesitantly: "We don't look like staff..."

"Have you ever heard of a saying?" Jiang Xia smiled with a certain chance of winning, "A man depends on his clothes."

……

3 minute later.

In the staff lounge.

"I found it." A middle-aged woman in her 40s turned around from the wardrobe, holding two sets of spare employee uniforms she had just found, and handed them to Jiang Xia.

She sized up the young detective and said with a smile: "I never thought that Zhishui could invite you to investigate. I thought she only found that black-skinned young man from Kansai."

"I happened to pass by here, and when I heard about it, I wanted to come and help." Jiang Xia smiled, "This is a secret investigation, please keep it secret for us."

"Don't worry!" The eldest sister slapped her chest, "Our reliable adults have always kept our mouths shut. From now on, you two are employees here."

……

It is true that people make clothes.

Jiang Xia, Yuan Shan and Ye put on loose staff uniforms, lowered the brim of their hats, and immediately blended into the staff team.

The two quickly found "Prince" Robert's lounge.

But pushing open the crack of the door and taking a look inside, there was no one inside.

This is a development Yuan Shan and Ye never expected.

She was stunned, and pressed the brim of her hat in confusion: "He's not here? Where did he go?"

"Look around. If you're lucky, you might meet him right away—some artists just don't like to stay in the lounge, because they think it's too boring."

As Jiang Xia said, smelling the murderous aura, she took Yuan Shan and Ye as if nothing had happened, and "fortunately" went to where Robert was.

——The murderous aura of this "prince" is actually a rare strawberry flavor, mixed with the murderous aura of vodka, maybe it can create a brand new taste of strawberry ice cream...

……

He swayed for a while in the direction of the murderous strawberry.

Yuan Shan and Ye Yan saw a mass of pink hair sharply, she gently tugged at Jiang Xia, and whispered, "Over there!"

The two looked at Robert's back from a distance, and whispered their lines.

Then pretended to be passing by and walked over.

……

Before the elevator.

Robert was facing the elevator, operating it clangingly—this is also a very important prop in the masquerade of "Stupid Victory".

"Stupid Victory" has three protagonists, and in the play, all three of them are going to die.

The prince played by Robert will be pierced through the heart by the minister with a sharp sword.

Afterwards, the victorious ministers would come to the edge of the balcony, fall down, and fall to their deaths.

But this is a drama after all, and it is impossible for a theater troupe to "fall and die" an actor just once.At this time, the elevator will be used - secretly raise the platform of the machine to the same height as the balcony, and when the minister falls from the sky, he will fall onto the elevator without any damage.

Robert held the pliers and wiped his sweat.

He looked up at the elevator and let out a long sigh of relief: It's done.

……

was about to leave.

But at this time, on the side road, two young staff members walked side by side.

The two were talking in a low voice.

The man among them seemed very worried: "I went to the props room just now and found that the one on the shelf is not the fake sword that can stretch, but the real sword—isn't that a prop for the official performance?"

"Don't mind your own business. The props must have changed their placement." The woman patted him on the back and said with a big heart, "How can it be possible to use a real sword, so the prince will be impaled?" , Hahaha—don't worry, we won't have such a major accident, everyone is a veteran."

The two walked away talking and laughing.

Behind him, Robert, who plays the role of "Prince", has changed his face.

"..." A real sword?

... Isn't that the sword that the "minister" wants to stab him with?How did it become a real sword?I haven't heard that the prop group will change the position of the real and fake swords!

Once he made a mistake, he would be stabbed.

Robert really couldn't be relieved.

He stood up from the lifting platform and ran quickly to the props room.

……

in the corridor behind.

Yuan Shan and Ye secretly turned their heads, glanced at Robert's far away back, and pressed the brim of their hats to hide their achievements and fame.

Then happily gave Jiang Xia a high-five: Done!

"Let's go, let's fight the fire." Yuan Shan and Ye remembered Jiang Xia's plan, "It was Hiroshi Komazuka who pretended to be a witness and broke the sword, let them be vigilant - if the person being targeted, someone If you are vigilant enough, even if Hiroshi Komazuka wants to do something later, it will not be so easy for him to do so."

"Yeah." Jiang Xia glanced at the elevator next to him, retracted his gaze, and hurried to the props room together with Yuan Shan and Ye.

……

When he arrived, Robert had already pulled out the long sword on the sword stand.

The light of the sword is bright, press the tip of the sword back and press it back, the sharp steel does not move at all.

This is indeed no longer the retractable short sword, but has become a real sharp sword with a sharp edge - once stabbed by this thing, he, the prince, will definitely die on the spot.

When Robert thought of the scene at that time, he suddenly became angry: "How can this group of people do things, and this can be wrong?!"

Angrily, he put his sword back into its sheath, raised it, and planned to find those foolish fools with pipes and tools to make a theory.

But at this moment, Robert suddenly remembered something and stopped.

"Wait." He rubbed his chin and said to himself, "It's more natural to be stabbed to death by a sword than to have that bastard Yabuki get electrocuted on the lift platform! It has nothing to do with me—I'm not the guy who messed up real and fake swords."

As he spoke, Robert's eyes lit up: "That's right, Yabuki has been eyeing my role as 'Prince' for a long time. Anyway, it's a silent drama, and I can't hear the actor's voice. Find an excuse to give him the role , he will definitely not refuse!

"At that time, the 'Prince' who was stabbed to death by the sword will be him, hahaha! Let him keep asking me for debts, isn't it just borrowing some bad money from him, tui!"

Yuan Shanheye, who eavesdropped at the door: "..."

Jiang Xia: "..."

...so loudly conspiring.

But for the sake of his big fluffy mass of murderous aura... Forget it, it's not a big problem.

……

Yuan Shan and Ye never expected that things would turn out like this.

——A potential murderer has not been solved, and now another one has emerged.
