Conan's Corpse Picker

Even, if those are two guys with strong abilities but weak spirits, maybe he can move a little more...

However, after all, he is an organization cadre, so it cannot be a fuel-efficient lamp.

Utsumi and Kazuhiko worked up his energy and decided to be more careful and treat them cautiously before completely gaining the trust of the two patients.Then, according to the situation, choose the appropriate response strategy.

……

When Jiang Xia mixed into the small group of doctors.

On the other hand, Conan went to the bathroom.

When he came out, he suddenly heard a series of hurried footsteps approaching from the corner in front, so he dodged subconsciously and hid behind the vase.

When the man ran across the T-shaped fork and reached the other side, Conan touched the back of his head embarrassingly, and realized that he was a bit sneaky - he didn't know why he was hiding just now, maybe It is some kind of intuition in the dark.

While thinking, Conan walked to the fork in the road, and looked in the direction where the footsteps left.

Then I was surprised to find that the person who came was Ichikawa Kazuju—the eldest daughter of the president of Ichikawa, who had returned to the villa at some point, and was opening the door of the luggage room with a more sneaky gesture than Conan. .

Soon, Ichikawa pushed the door open and walked in.

Conan watched her movements from a distance, and couldn't help being curious.

A second later, he decisively slipped over, wanting to see what Miss Ichikawa was going to do.

——Of course this is not peeping.

Just "observe Mr. Ichikawa's two daughters", this is the commission Jiang Xia received tonight.

Conan: "..." I don't know where Jiang Xia went, but she didn't stare at Ms. Ichikawa, tsk tsk tsk, it's really disrespectful - but after all, she was going to stare at two people, and Jiang Xia might be staring at her younger sister right now, so she doesn't have the skills to do both.

Thinking about it, Conan pushed his glasses: Oh, there is really no way.As a good classmate who is willing to help others, I will show mercy and help Jiang Xia to keep an eye on him.Maybe I can be one step ahead of Jiang Xia, and figure out what President Ichikawa said about the "big event that is about to happen at home"...

……

Conan quickly trot to the door of the luggage room.

The decoration of this villa is classical, and the door locks are also very old styles. You can see the situation in the house directly through the keyhole.

Conan moved closer to the keyhole and looked inside.

Just in time, Miss Ichikawa walked to the table carrying a wooden box containing red wine, and put it down gently.

The beautiful and elegant woman then took out a small bag, reached out and fumbled in the bag, and soon found an ampoule containing the medicine.She rummages for another syringe, then looks at the outfit with a sinister grin.

Conan: "..." Syringes, mysterious drugs and red wine? ...Wait, it must not be what he thought.

As soon as the idea came to fruition, Ichikawa took out the unknown drug in the ampoule with a syringe, slowly pierced the cork of the red wine, poured all the medicine into the red wine, and then put the red wine back into the box, carefully packed it .

——Judging from the appearance of the red wine box, this is a gift to be given out.

And today, it happens to be President Ichikawa's birthday...

A series of information quickly pieced together into a conspiracy.

Conan couldn't help becoming vigilant: Miss Ichikawa, is this going to poison his father? !

Conan: "..." I have to tell Jiang Xia quickly.But, isn't it bad to beat up the client's daughter in public?Tell Xiaolan, so that even if something happens, Xiaolan can hold Jiang Xia in time...

While thinking, he stepped back lightly, intending to leave quietly without disturbing Miss Ichikawa.

But just after taking two steps back, he bumped into a person behind him.

"?!"

Conan was startled, and suddenly wanted to turn around.

But before seeing the person behind him, a handkerchief stained with anesthesia viciously covered his mouth and nose.

The weak elementary school student struggled uselessly for a moment and quickly lost consciousness.

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

1212【Arrears of wages to detectives】

Outside the villa, in the beautiful banquet hall.

After Jiang Xia got the doctors' business cards and memorized the addresses, phone numbers, and names on them, she stopped hanging out with this group of aloof party guests.

He went to pick up a glass of Coke with a goblet, and then continued to stop at the corner of the venue, carrying out his commission.

——President Ichikawa's attitude is a little weird, the riddleman seems to prefer to let the detective stay in the corner of the party.Jiang Xia tried to sneak into the villa, but was stopped by the housekeeper.

So Jiang Xia followed suit, took out his notebook, recalled the conversation between the two Miss Ichikawa just now, recorded it one by one, and handed it to the client after preparation.

……

Not long after, the servants set up the outdoor stage.

President Ichikawa quickly stepped onto the stage and picked up the microphone:

"Thank you for taking the time to come to my birthday party. This time, there is mainly one thing to inform you - I plan to step down as president in the near future, that is to say, I will retire.

"Next, I will resell all the stocks under my name and the right to operate the company to Asahi Industrial."

"..."

There was a dead silence in the hall.

After a while, whispers exploded, and amidst the noisy voices, someone couldn't help asking loudly: "Then what should we do?"

——A large part of the people who came to the party today are relatives of President Ichikawa.Originally, some of them could also get a share of the inheritance.

"What are you going to do?" President Ichikawa repeated what they said, and laughed mockingly, "Well, it's hard to say the details, but one thing is certain - I won't let everyone present, from me Get a penny here."

"..."

Among the silent crowd, Jiang Xia couldn't help being infected with a bit of the detective's savvy attributes: "..." You said just now that you will give me another 100 million after everything is done...

Mao Lilan felt the restlessness of the crowd, and suddenly remembered something.

She looked around and whispered worriedly to Jiang Xia and Suzuki Sonoko: "Have you seen Conan?"

"No." Suzuki Sonoko was used to this brat's getting lost, "I must have found something interesting again, let's slip away and play secretly."

……

Conan did find something interesting.

But I couldn't steal it, but was played by someone else.

——By the time he broke free from the anesthesia, a long time had passed.

Conan sat up abruptly from the ground, pressed his forehead, looked around, and found that he was locked in the basement.

He was stunned for a while, and suddenly remembered what happened before he fainted, and hurried to the door, trying to open it, but the door was locked firmly, it was impossible for him to open it.

Conan always felt that something was going to happen tonight.

He took out his mobile phone and wanted to contact a few classmates outside, but after a closer look, there was no signal here.

"Oops, that bottle of poisoned wine..."

……

In the banquet hall.

After Kotaro Ichikawa announced that he was resigning from office, he returned to the villa with different looks from everyone.

Thinking about the faces of those guys who ate a fly after hearing that "the inheritance cannot be obtained", Kotaro Ichikawa couldn't help but be very happy-he abandoned the property he had worked hard on health and integrity by any means, why should he be easily taken by these people Walk?

With his departure, the atmosphere in the banquet hall completely calmed down.

Jiang Xia thought of something and looked at the butler: "I remember when Mr. Ichikawa gave the commission, he said to observe his two daughters at the banquet tonight. If this is the case, is the commission over?"

"Of course." The butler nodded, "Please follow me."

He led several people to the villa.

This time, instead of going to the study, he went to the living room.

When he arrived at the door, Jiang Xia glanced around and saw several familiar people standing in the room - Kotaro Ichikawa, his two daughters, and the personal doctor.

He was about to go in, but was stopped by Kotaro Ichikawa:

"Next is the time for our family to talk. Just give me the results of your investigation. You wait next door, and the housekeeper will give you the remaining 100 million."

Jiang Xia didn't have any objection to this, so he agreed, and put the notebook that didn't record much in his hand.

Afterwards, the old butler also entered the waiting room, and the door was closed from the inside.

"Weird." Sonoko Suzuki pouted dissatisfiedly, trying to peek through the crack of the door, but unfortunately failed.

"Okay, let's look for Conan." After all, Mao Lilan lived in a detective agency, and his resistance to Riddler was much higher than that of Suzuki Sonoko.

Compared with other people's personal affairs, she still cares more about the whereabouts of the missing Conan: "Conan won't be captured by someone with a dark mind to vent his anger, such as being a humanoid sandbag or something... the guests at the banquet have terrible faces .”

"Maybe I went to the bathroom." Jiang Xia looked around and pointed in a direction, "Go over there and look for it."

……

At the same time, stay in the living room.

Different from the horrific atmosphere at the banquet just now, at this moment, several people in the room were enjoying themselves—at least it seemed so on the surface.

The second daughter, Mizue Ichikawa, was sitting on the sofa, looking at her father who was in the lead, and squeezed out a little smile:

"To be honest, I don't object to Dad's decision. Wealth is the sweetest thing if you get it through your own hard work." ——Hmph, old man, when you die, even if you don't want to, I can also get a retained inheritance, which is enough for me to live happily for decades.

and……

Ichikawa Mizue stroked her hair, gloating in her heart: there must be someone more anxious than her.

Just thinking about it, the eldest daughter Ichikawa also smiled and said: "Me too."

She held a wine box in her hand.

While speaking, Ichikawa opened it gracefully, took out the red wine, and poured it out:

"In order to celebrate my father's birthday, I brought this bottle of famous wine from [-] to me. I have kept this wine for a long time and I am reluctant to open it. Now it seems that only in the hands of a person with taste like my father will it be safe. underestimate its value."

She poured out a glass of wine calmly, put it in a clear goblet, and handed it to Kotaro Ichikawa.

Ichikawa Kotaro took it casually, without commenting on what they said, but just picked up the wine, looked at it, and sniffed it like a usual wine tasting.
