Conan's Corpse Picker

Jiang Xia: "..." Thinking about it carefully, when a normal person encounters such a deadly "game", it should be normal to leave work aside and discuss the situation.

As for the client...

There were actually quite a few other detectives on that street.Although the boss is unreliable and absent all year round, there are still some dedicated people.

Jiang Xia sent a message to Qiangtian Yumei, asking her to help her receive it.

Then he put down his cell phone and went upstairs with Sonoko Suzuki, occasionally glancing behind him to see if there were any murderous clients coming to Kogoro Mori to place an order.

……

The second floor of the office.

Mori Kogoro dozed off in the room, Conan went somewhere, and Mori Lan was the only one in the hall.

She was standing by the phone, talking in a low voice.

Hearing someone entering the house, Mao Lilan hung up the phone and turned around, saw Jiang Xia and Suzuki Sonoko, and sighed: "Xinyi also..."

She didn't say the rest, just shook her head.

The two classmates quickly understood what she meant: Kudo Shinichi couldn't say anything about the "game"-the anonymous "hypnosis technique" seemed to be so superb that it didn't affect their memory, but it could actually interfere with it. their expressions.

……

The three sat sadly in front of the sofa, drinking tea and eating snacks, trying to break through the restrictions of the "user confidentiality clause" by "inadvertently blurting out", "hinting" and other methods.

But after trying for a while, it didn't work.

At this time, the door slammed lightly.

Jiang Xia looked at the door and saw Conan sneaking in.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko followed Jiang Xia's gaze and saw Conan entering the door. After being startled, they all stopped talking.

——In the "game" last night, Conan used the appearance of "Kudou Shinichi". Suzuki Sonoko and Mori Ran didn't know that this "children" in front of them had been involved in the game.So I didn't continue to try related topics.

They were worried that if they managed to tell Conan about the "game" in front of him, Conan would also be pulled in because he "knew too much"... such a terrible script, it is better not to let children touch it .

……

The three of them then turned to chatting about other things.

Suzuki Sonoko remembered something, smiled and walked to Mao Lilan's side: "Xiaolan, do you know Uemori Michimo?"

When Jiang Xia heard them talking about someone else suddenly, her body unconsciously turned a little in the direction of the two of them, and listened intently.

"Michitomo Uemori? It's the chef who is good at French cuisine." Mao Lilan did know this person.The family usually relies on her to cook, and she is very interested in cooking. When chasing stars, she also included "famous chefs" in the scope. "I even bought her new cooking book."

Suzuki Sonoko heard Mao Lilan's yearning tone, and immediately smiled, and secretly fiddled with his little abacus:

"A while ago, Mitomo Mori opened a culinary training class, and I also signed up. The next class is the night after tomorrow, but I happened to be busy that day... why don't you go to the class for me, and then come back to teach me , what did you learn that day?"

——It’s true that I have something to do the night after tomorrow, and it’s also true that I don’t want to go to class.

Suzuki Sonoko sighed resentfully when thinking of Kaemori Michimo's violent temper.

Next to her, Mao Lilan's eyes lit up, she never thought that there would be such an opportunity to get in touch with famous chefs up close.

Seeing her heartbeat, Suzuki Sonoko said in detail: "The class time is from 06:30 to 09:30 in the evening. The location is just not far from the Twin Towers in Nishitama City that I went to yesterday - in the tall building opposite it. You can enjoy the scenery, the night view is great.”

After finishing speaking, Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but feel a little pain in his conscience seeing Mao Lilan's more and more yearning appearance.

She cleared her throat, and Nene added:

"However, there is a little not so good - the actual character of Uemori-sensei is different from her usual kind appearance in public. Her temper...it's just...uh..."

A voice came from the side, helping her to conclude: "Very fierce?"

"It's not fierce." Suzuki Sonoko pointed at his chin with a finger, thinking about his words, "Very strict, a bit yin and yang, and loves to criticize... But Xiaolan is good at cooking, and it's the first time we meet, she probably won't Make things difficult."

After speaking, Suzuki Sonoko was slightly taken aback.

——She suddenly realized that it was not Mao Lilan who answered the conversation just now, but Jiang Xia.

Suzuki Sonoko looked at Jiang Xia suddenly, a little surprised: Jiang Xia is also interested in French cuisine?

"..." By the way, Jiang Xia lives alone, and usually cooks by herself... Hey, I have to find a chance to have a meal and try Jiang Xia's cooking... A look of anticipation flashed in Suzuki Sonoko's eyes.

Just as he was thinking secretly, a discordant voice came from beside him.

"Nishitama City, or does get out of class end at 09:30 in the evening?"

Mori Kogoro woke up at some point.

He strained his ears and eavesdropped on the young man's conversation for a while. Seeing that Mao Lilan wanted to go, he interrupted: "No! It's too late and too far away, so it's not safe!"

Chapter 1035 The boss is here to play

Suzuki Sonoko came back to his senses, and stared quietly at the uncle who suddenly came in: "The banquet I'm going to that night is also in the same building, and I can go with Xiaolan. In addition..."

She suddenly pulled Jiang Xia over and said happily: "Jiang Xia is also interested in French cuisine, he can go with us!"

Conan looked at Jiang Xia, then at Mao Lilan, and remembered the bloody scenes of these two beating people and doors: "..."

This level of security is indeed sufficient.Even a little over the standard...

……

After Mori Kogoro reluctantly agreed, Jiang Xia happily finalized the itinerary for the day after tomorrow with his classmates.

After that, he went to his own office... Heck, he went to the Amuro Detective Agency to deal with the work.

In the evening, Jiang Xia returned home, thought for a moment, and began to concoct a sincere invitation letter to send to her busy boss:

[I heard that in order to find out my identity, you didn't hesitate to waste the precious time of the cadres, and went to play stalking games with high school students for seven days.

Since you are so sincerely chasing after my back, as a colleague, I seem to give you a little hint to get close to me.

——Welcome to visit the Nishitama City Municipal Building.

Recently, a grand fireworks festival will be staged here. 】

"Signature, Ouzo..."

After Jiang Xia typed the email, she slid to the beginning and looked it over again, quite satisfied.

——With such a provocative tone, coupled with the mysterious "Uzo" as a bait, even if Toru Amuro is a bottle of real wine, I'm afraid he can't help but pick up his gun and run to see the situation, let alone he is a curiosity Very vigorous undercover.

……

The Nishitama City Municipal Building is exactly the tall building opposite the "Nishitama Twin Towers", and the two sides are not far apart.

In this way, once the Twin Towers explode in the future, Toru Amuro, who is circling around the municipal building, can immediately sense the situation and rush to the Twin Towers to make the already muddy water even more muddy.

In addition to evacuating the crowd, he also happened to meet Akai Shuichi on a narrow road, and offered a little bonus to the hardworking psychic.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia pressed the send button expectantly, and sent the invitation letter to Toru Amuro, who was working somewhere.

Then log out of the newly registered mailbox, no longer check the other party's reaction, and be a conscientious and cold riddler.

……

Time flies, and soon it is the time to go out that I made an appointment with a few classmates.

Before going out, Jiang Xia glanced at his watch, thoughtful.

——The cooking class doesn’t start until 06:30 in the evening.

But Suzuki Sonoko made an appointment to meet at one o'clock in the noon.

Moreover, when we were discussing the departure time together, she looked mysterious and seemed to have prepared other "surprises"...

Jiang Xia recalled Suzuki Sonoko's complex circle of friends, and couldn't help feeling a little bit of anticipation in his heart.

He deliberately brought some extra business cards, and walked briskly to the meeting place.

"Jiang Xia! This way~!"

Just after turning the corner, someone from a distance waved at him.

Jiang Xia followed the prestige and saw a car parked low-key on the side of the road.

The three classmates stood on the sidewalk, and on the other side, they were holding the driver of Suzuki's family.

"..." Jiang Xia approached and looked at Suzuki Sonoko in surprise—she was actually wearing a dress today, with a coat loosely draped over her shoulders, as if she was planning to go to a banquet, no wonder this time she Did not choose to travel by subway.

……

The vehicle set off quickly, heading all the way towards Nishitama City.

"Oh, my mother insisted that I go to that commemorative dinner..."

Suzuki Sonoko sat on the co-pilot, raised his hand to support his chin, and sighed faintly, the crystal bracelet on his wrist reflected the fluorescence: "Fortunately, I heard that there is a special flower arrangement performance, it won't be too boring, otherwise I will pretend to be sick at home rested."

In the family of the chairman of the Suzuki Consortium, there are only two daughters - Suzuki Sonoko, and her sister Suzuki Ayako.

Now, Suzuki Ayako's marriage has been decided, and Mrs. Suzuki has completely put her hope of "heir" on Suzuki Sonoko, hoping to bring up this carefree daughter as soon as possible.

However, Suzuki Sonoko has her own ideas. Every time the topic of inheritance is discussed, the mother and daughter will break up unhappy, and Suzuki Sonoko still lives her daily life as an "ordinary high school girl".

So a while ago, when Sonoko Suzuki rolled around coquettishly and wanted to get the game data of "Cocoon", Mrs. Suzuki immediately seized the opportunity-as a condition of "customizing a game room for Sonoko", she accelerated the process of her daughter. The training process includes asking Suzuki Sonoko to go to social banquets more to get used to the life of her heir as soon as possible.

……

Nowadays, the data and game cabin of "Cocoon" are of course useless, but it is not easy to release pigeons for what has been promised.

Suzuki Sonoko had no choice but to complete the py deal with her mother while sighing, while trying to find fun for herself—for example, when attending a boring banquet, she kidnapped a few friends and bored with her.

She thought in anticipation: Mr. Uemori, who teaches French cuisine, is so fierce, maybe Xiaolan can’t stand her, and then she sneaked away in the middle of the class—just in time for the dinner party, and Mr. Uemori’s culinary training Classes are located in the same building, so it is very convenient to join together.

Also, one more thing.

……

"It's just past two o'clock, whether it's a dinner party or a cooking class, it's still early."

"In that case, here we come—"

As Nishitama City was getting closer, Suzuki Sonoko turned around with a smile, resting his chin on the back of the seat, looked at Mao Lilan and Jiang Xia, and secretly suggested: "Why don't you each take a set of costume photos! "

Mao Lilan: "...?"

Jiang Xia: "...?"

As Suzuki Sonoko's voice fell, the driver drove to the side of the road very cooperatively, and parked the car firmly in front of a building.
