Conan's Corpse Picker

Jiang Xia looked away from Conan in disappointment.

But soon, he remembered another person.

Jiang Xia took out her mobile phone, flipped through the address book, her eyes lit up vaguely: "I almost forgot, I saved the phone numbers of Mrs. Hattori and Mr. Hattori before—maybe they will have some clues there."

Conan: "..." Mrs. Hattori and Mr. Hattori?

...Is it Heiji Hattori's parents?

The Hattori family has been infiltrated by Jiang Xia's forces to such an extent...

Conan thought of Hattori Heiji's miserable appearance of trying to avoid Jiangxia several times before, but failed repeatedly, and he understood the reason belatedly.

Speaking of which, compared with the somewhat impulsive Hattori Heiji, Jiang Xia does have a better impression on the elders, looking gentle and reliable... Hey, fortunately, my parents don't like this ...well, probably.

Mao Lilan didn't think so much.She was a little worried about the two friends who had lost contact, and looked anxiously at Jiang Xia who was on the phone, hoping that he could ask some clues.

……

Jiang Xia did inquire about some news:

"Kazuha's father, Toyama Ginjiro, used to have a subordinate named 'Kusukawa Taro'. That person has now resigned and works at the Kubado Detective Agency."

Toyama Ginshiro and Hattori Heizo are close subordinates, they chat about everything, including this situation.

"A few days ago, Taro Kusukawa wrote an email to Ginshiro Toyama, saying that he had something important to discuss with him, but there was no news after that—the matter that Hattori said he had to deal with urgently probably referred to this .”

Conan nodded, and his mind was quite peaceful - he and Hattori Heiji were both high school detectives, and Hattori Heiji's force value was even higher than him.Just as Conan has always been very reassuring about himself, he is also very reassuring about Hattori Heiji.

He didn't think that something would happen to Hattori Heiji, but secretly guessed: This guy Hattori may have encountered some difficult and miscellaneous cases, so he used "business" as an excuse to ask Yuanshan and Ye to accompany him to mute the phone so that he could hide the case. People secretly check.

Conan: "..." It's okay to hide it from Jiang Xia, why should you hide it from the reliable Kudo Shinichi?

... Does he look like the kind of eccentric classmate who would inform Jiang Xia?

Hmph, since that's the case.This time he supported Jiang Xia—find out Hattori as soon as possible, and investigate his case together.

……

Out of various considerations, the three quickly reached an agreement.

According to the news of the friendly sponsorship of Hattori's father, they boarded the tram and went to the Kawado Detective Agency.

……

It is different from "Amuro Detective Agency" and "Maori Detective Agency" with few people.

The Kawado Detective Agency is larger in scale, and the interior is an ordinary office room, and each station belongs to a busy detective.

Unfortunately, Kusukawa Taro was not among them.

The bald uncle who was accosted touched his shiny head and frowned: "Nan Chuan? Why did you come to him again?"

Jiang Xia looked at his watch, not forgetting to grasp the key words precisely: "Again? Someone came to him before?"

"That's right, it's also a high school detective like you, with a high school girl, but one child is missing." The uncle patted Conan's head.

Conan's eyes twitched and he wanted to avoid it.

However, considering that there are still questions to ask at this time, he endured the humiliation and showed the child's innocent smile: "Does the uncle know where they went?"

"I didn't notice, I don't know Nan Chuan very well. And it was Noda who received them at the time." The bald man thought for a while, "Noda is going to deliver a mission report to the client. He will be back soon, you can ask him later Just ask."

……

Rather than searching blindly, it would be more cost-effective to wait for that "Detective Noda".

There happened to be a coffee shop nearby, and a few people went there instead of waiting in the busy detective agency.

On the way, Mao Lilan looked around, and belatedly said to Jiang Xia, "Huh? Isn't this the neighborhood we just visited?"

Thanks for the [Monthly Pass] (σ≧?▽?≦?)σ-☆

1127【Stop reading minds】

Jiang Xia discovered this earlier than Mao Lilan.

He pointed out the direction to Lu Chi: "We were here just now—there is Mr. Okiya's apartment over there, and the station is in that direction."

With such a positioning, although Mao Lilan still didn't understand the way, at least she understood the general meaning: "So that's how it is, what a coincidence."

What a coincidence, maybe I will run into Okiya Subaru again later.

Jiang Xia also took advantage of the effort to show Mao Lilan the way, and looked around.

It's a pity that there is still no trace of Akai Shuichi's haunting.

Jiang Xia: "..." Speaking of which, even if Akai Shuichi is really nearby and staring at Okiya Subaru.The maximum range of this fbi also seems to exceed the sensing range of the ghosts.Unless Hideichi Akai is extremely murderous, it's really not that easy to find... Tsk, a nasty long-range shooter.

But fortunately, now he has a fixed bait—although it doesn’t look very useful, Okiya Subaru is idle anyway, why don’t you ask him to come over to liven up the atmosphere and exchange feelings, wouldn’t it? wonderful.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia's thoughts moved slightly, and on the way to the coffee shop, he sent a message to Ganfanmao who was visiting Okiya Subaru's house.

——Maybe Okiya Subaru meets Conan, and there will be some wonderful case reactions.Just like when Hattori Heiji met Conan, it was prone to serial murders...

……

a few minutes ago.

Near Kubado Detective Agency.

In an old coffee shop.

"I'm still in business, if you have nothing to do, just go away." The proprietress stood in front of the bar, rolling out the dough for dessert, her voice was cold, "Don't delay my entertaining guests."

Behind her, a man in a suit and leather shoes pushed his glasses and showed a sneer: "Business? There are no customers, are you serving ghosts?" He glanced at the kitchen counter, his tone disgusted, "... how dare you take The waterproof calendar is used as a backing board, but you can figure it out, it's no wonder someone would come to such a dirty store."

"Ha, anyway, I don't eat it myself, and I don't rely on it to make money." The proprietress sneered:

"Have you prepared all the money I asked you to prepare? It's agreed in advance that you can't lose a penny, otherwise I won't be able to stop my mouth.

"It's not that simple for you to change careers to become a teaching assistant at Dongdu University. When the information in my hand is released, you will suffer from the reputation, and there will be more suitable candidates than you-the quota will be determined in a week. Until then, come on and raise money."

The man didn't answer, but just raised his hand in a murderous look.

——He secretly reached into the freezer next to him just now, and took out a piece of steak that was frozen firmly.

As the landlady's last word fell, Hideshi Katsumura stepped forward, grabbed the steak as solid as a brick, and smashed it down hard.

thump—

Blood spattered from the back of the head.

Eiji Katsumura looked at the fallen body and pushed his glasses: "...you forced me to do this."

……

After killing the man, Hideshi Katsumura quickly hid the body, dealt with the scene briefly, and planned to move it away and throw the body away at night.

After doing this, he was about to go out, but suddenly found a few bloodstains on his coat.

"... Tsk." This kind of clothes can't be worn on the street.

Katsumura had no choice but to stride back behind the counter, take off his coat, stuff it in the most hidden place, and prepare to take it away with the corpse at night.

After finishing these, just stood up straight, the wind chime at the door of the store suddenly rang clearly.

——At this damn time, someone actually came!

……

"Let's wait in this store first—the uncle just said that if Mr. Kusukawa or Mr. Noda came back, he would contact us immediately." A young man's voice came from the door.

Eiji Katsumura's whole body was tense, and when he turned his head from the bar, he saw two high school students and a child walking in.

"..." Eiji Katsumura breathed a sigh of relief silently: It's okay, it's just a few students.

When I heard a guest coming in just now, my first reaction was "people from the nearby detective agency came to the door", thinking that I was finished.Unexpectedly, there is no unparalleled road...

……

After thinking for a moment, Hideshi Katsumura did not leave immediately.

He planned to pretend to be a clerk, and deal with these people first - after all, he was at the bar at this time, and he could no longer pretend to be a "passing customer", and it would be suspicious to insist on leaving.And if he left, it would be troublesome for this group of students to turn over the corpse by mistake.

Eiji Katsumura: "..." Just now, the high school boy who just entered the door said, just come in and "wait a minute".

In this case, they will probably only order some drinks and desserts.There are stocks in these refrigerators, and simple processing will do.

Eiji Katsumura quickly cleared his mind and showed a natural smile: "Welcome!"

At the same time, relying on the dim light on the side of the bar, he used his body to cover the blood-stained parts, quietly covered them, and wiped them clean.

……

When Hideshi Katsumura turned around with the menu, he happened to meet the three new guests.

Seeing the man coming out, Jiang Xia casually sized him up, and suddenly said thoughtfully:

"There seems to be a bloody smell in the store."

Mao Lilan looked at the small kitchen inside the bar on tiptoe, and said with a smile: "You detectives are too sensitive to these things. This coffee shop sells main meals, and the people in the shop should be cooking - I usually cook and cut meat It also smells like blood."

Although it makes sense, Conan couldn't help but rectify the detective's name when he heard her words: "The case can only be solved by being sensitive - there have been cases of using frozen meat as a murder weapon before, and kitchen meat may not be harmless."

Eiji Katsumura shook his hand holding the menu silently: "!"

... What are these three people talking about! !

Coincidence, it must be a coincidence... Speaking of which, that young man is actually a detective?

Eiji Katsumura's heart began to tremble, but he could only maintain a business smile on his face.

—Hold on, what's up with the detective?

Detectives wait until they see the body before they begin to solve the case.But now, the corpse is still well hidden, so it's not a big problem.Concentrate on fooling these people away first, and destroy the physical evidence as much as possible—for example, the piece of frozen meat that was used to smash the proprietress, boil it, chop it up, and stuff it into the cake. Who would guess that it was the murder weapon?

……

When Hideshi Katsumura comforted himself in his heart.

Beside, the three young people are still continuing the topic just now.

"Indeed, I have heard of similar cases."
