Conan's Corpse Picker

Forget it.

……

Vodka quickly followed Gin's instructions and parked the car in a deserted place.

Jiang Xia had already got what he wanted, this time he didn't stay much, and left quickly with a ghost and a murderous look.

After he got out of the car, Gin kicked the briefcase brought by Jiang Xia with his toe - half a day ago, it was Tequila who took these two briefcases, but now, the middle-aged labor force of this organization has become There was a miserable charred corpse.

Qin Jiu said gloomyly: "Another one died."

The newly recruited members have not yet been properly trained, and the identification work has not yet been completed. He is not at ease to use this kind of person as peripheral cannon fodder, let alone to do serious work... Thinking of this, Qin Jiu's eyes were thoughtful It landed in the direction Jiang Xia left.

Vodka quickly understood the meaning of the big brother, and was not surprised at all.

Once again, the innocent child who was stuffed into the bag by Jiang Xia and folded like a building block flashed through his mind again... If you have to say it was an accident, vodka would only be an accident. Become regular.

Chapter 125 Is Jiang Xia Getting Smaller Too?

Jiang Xia left Qin Jiu's car and returned to the detective agency.For him, since the shikigami and murderous intent had been obtained, the bombing case was over.

He briefly counted his gains against the desk, and started his daily work with satisfaction.

But on the other hand, some people can't return to the peaceful daily life.

——Conan was stung by an unidentified child on the way to track Tequila. He had a messy nightmare, sat up suddenly, and found that he had returned home.

Mao Lilan brought him a glass of water, and by the way condemned his behavior of running around in the morning.

However, Conan didn't listen to a word.What happened today made his mind a mess, and he realized that he had encountered an unusual event.

"Organizing men in black" is associated with "children who pretend to be sick and plot against others", so Conan couldn't help thinking that the child who paralyzed him might not be a real "child" at all, but the same thing he ate. Poison, an unfortunate tissue experiment that got smaller.

Even, the organization may be secretly cultivating such fake children to do things for them.This kind of mourning method of using children to commit crimes fits well with the organization in Conan's heart.

But soon, Conan ruled out this line of thinking—let’s not talk about the death rate of poison, just judging from today’s situation, there were only him, the tall man in black and that fake child in that corridor at that time. When it comes to him, the tall and strong man in black can directly come over and strangle him to death, why bother to send a child to assassinate him.

So the child and the man in black should not be accomplices.Could it be... the fake child is actually a victim of organizational poison?The fake kid didn't want someone to follow the man in black, so he used anesthesia to stop him?

This is barely plausible, otherwise it would be difficult to explain why a first grader would suddenly use drugs to murder another first grader.

...I don't know what the purpose of the fake child is.However, one thing is certain - he didn't have too much malice towards him, otherwise he wouldn't be lying at home safely now.

Thinking of this, Conan looked at Mao Lilan next to him: "Sister Xiaolan, where did you find me?"

"It's on the second floor." Mao Lilan knocked on the top of his head angrily, "I can really run around. Fortunately, there are police officers to help find someone."

"Police?" Conan stood up abruptly, "Why did the police come?"

Mao Lilan was taken aback, hesitated for a moment, and did not tell Conan the truth.

She felt that the scorched corpse in the bombing case was not suitable for children, so she lied unnaturally: "Because...of course it's because you disappeared."

Conan wasn't fooled at all.He guessed that there was a murder case at the press conference... Well, after all, Jiang Xia was there, so it was normal for such a thing to happen, but he didn't know if the murder case had anything to do with the organization.

Conan didn't continue to question Mao Lilan, but took the opportunity to sneak out of the house and went straight to the press conference in Paradise.I secretly prayed in my heart that the man in black hadn't gone far.

On the way, he called Jiang Xia.

Xiaolan may hide the news because he is a child, but in Jiang Xia's eyes, he is a peer, and Jiang Xia will definitely tell him the real reason why the police went to the press conference!

However, just as Jiang Xia's phone rang, it was immediately disconnected.

Conan was taken aback.I wanted to call again, but it happened that the tram arrived at this time.

He raised his eyes and looked out, and saw a group of onlookers on the street—a corner of the press conference building was blasted with a huge hole, revealing the ruins of the bombing inside, and the vehicles parked outside the building were also destroyed. It was affected and overturned several vehicles.Fortunately, there was no one in the car. As the crime scene, this place has not been cleaned up yet.

Conan was stunned at the small-scale ruins.He thought it was a homicide at most, but he didn't expect it to be a case of this scale.

... No wonder Jiang Xia hung up the phone, he must be busy helping the police find the bomber.

……

However, Conan managed to sneak into the scene with a low sense of presence, and saw a few familiar faces, but he didn't see Jiang Xia.

He grabbed a person and asked, and then repeated in doubt: "... Already left? Didn't solve the case?"

"Yes." Officer Sato looked down at the kid who often appeared with Jiang Xia.

She noticed that there was a little doubt in Conan's tone, so she couldn't help explaining for Jiang Xia: "There is no specific suspect in today's case, and it is even difficult to determine the exact time when the bomb was placed, and because the bag containing the bomb may be unknowingly Even the place where it was placed was difficult to locate... No matter how good Jiang Xia is at solving crimes, it would be difficult for us to give us effective advice without clues, and he had other things at the time.”

"Other things?" Conan thought of the tall man in black, and his heart froze. Could it be that Jiang Xia also noticed the people in the organization?

But not.

Sato raised his hand and flicked Conan's head, feeling that the child was very unknown: "I was looking for you. We thought you were stepped on, and we searched together for a long time-why did you run out alone again? Your parents are here Where? What's the phone number?"

Conan: "..."

Seeing that Sato was planning to escort him home, he hurriedly changed the subject, and chose an entry point that he thought Officer Sato would be interested in, and at the same time he was curious: "Well, what happened next? Where did brother Jiang Xia go after that?" ?”

Sure enough, Sato thought about it for a while: "When I came back, I happened to see him walking out of the gate with two other girls. He said he still had something to do and asked them to go back first, and then left in a hurry."

Conan was taken aback, and always felt that these words and this scene had a very strong sense of sight.

He froze for two seconds, then remembered—a while ago, in the amusement park, Kudo Shinichi also said similar things to Mao Lilan, and hurried away with a similar attitude... Then that night, Kudo Shinichi said something about his meowing Became Edogawa Conan.

From Conan's point of view, the man in black at the press conference looked more suspicious than gin and vodka, and Jiang Xia's observation skills are so strong, if he is the same as Kudo Shinichi back then...

Conan thought about it, his face turned pale, and he rushed out of the door under Sato's suspicious gaze.

He remembered the phone call to Jiang Xia just now, but was hung up in seconds, his eyes gradually became dignified, and his heart had automatically fast-forwarded to the young version of Jiang Xia, holding the back of his bleeding head, wearing adult clothes, standing with a cold face at Dr. The scene of ringing the doorbell at the door of the house...

However, if you think about it carefully, Jiang Xia's skill is much better than "Kudo Shinichi".

...But this will kill him instead, the people in the organization must have guns in their hands.If they find that they can't beat Jiang Xia, in order to subdue him as soon as possible, they will shoot him randomly... It seems that they might as well be fed poison and become smaller.

Chapter 126 The Indifferent Haibara Ai

Conan imagined all kinds of terrible scenarios, and his palms were sweating.

He originally wanted to call Jiang Xia again, but then he thought about it, if Jiang Xia escaped by chance and was hiding in a certain place at this time, then his persistent calling would cause Jiang Xia trouble.

Conan gritted his teeth and dialed the doctor's number instead.

The agave was too close to the blast and too shattered to be identified.Conan also never expected that "members of the terrible and mysterious organization" would be killed by bombing in an ordinary way.

Therefore, in Conan's brain supplement, Tequila is not the one that was bombed, but the one that put the bomb.It just so happens that the Black Organization also has a criminal record-Gin put a bomb on the Shinkansen.

In short, at present, Conan's imaginary enemy is still Tequila.

Unlike Jiang Xia, the doctor got through quickly.

Conan didn't have time to explain, and said anxiously: "Go to the door and have a look!"

"Ah?" The doctor touched the back of his head in confusion, opened the door, but didn't see anything, he wondered, "What's wrong?"

Conan: "Isn't Jiang Xia outside?"

"Not here." The doctor looked outside the door again, and then looked in the direction of Jiang Xia's home, "It seems that he is not at home, I didn't see his motorcycle."

Hui Yuanai was leaning on the sofa, flipping through the nutritional recipes.

At this time, when she heard the doctor's movement, she looked up and found that the doctor was looking at Jiang Xia's house.

……What happened?

Hui Yuanai hesitated for a moment, put down the menu as if nothing had happened, and moved closer to eavesdrop.

The volume of the doctor's phone was high, and Haibara Ai successfully heard Conan's voice, and Conan said sadly: "I met someone suspected of being a black organization today."

He briefly stated what happened today, and talked about his reasoning.

At first, Hui Yuanai looked solemn.

However, when Conan said, "Jiang Xia may have discovered the suspiciousness of those men in black like me at the time, and pursued them secretly to investigate, but in the end..." She yawned, showing no interest at all. walked away.

Kudo Shinichi thought a little too much.

Jiang Xia is too lazy to check the organization's affairs. For example, a precious former researcher of an organization lives next to him, but all he thinks about is the recipe.

However, although Jiang Xia will not have an accident because of the reason of "investigation organization", if there are really official members of the organization at the press conference... those people will ask Jiang Xia to be a tool person to help with the finishing, it is very possible.

Hui Yuanai frowned and flipped through two pages of recipes, only to find that he couldn't read them at all.

After thinking about it, she took out her mobile phone and tentatively sent a message to Jiang Xia: 【What's for dinner? 】

Jiang Xia didn't reply.

Hui Yuanai thought to himself, this is normal, after all, not everyone is staring at the phone all the time, let's check it later.

She tossed the phone aside casually.

Half a minute later, Hui Yuanai leaned over with a blank face, grabbed the phone, turned on the screen and looked at it, but found that there was no reply.So put the phone away again.

After another half a minute, I opened it to check, but there was still no reply.

……

After repeating it seven or eight times, Hui Yuan Ai stretched out his hand silently, picked up the phone that had been thrown away N times, and put it on his lap.

From this angle, even if she is looking at the menu, she can immediately see the lit screen.

After that, she picked up the recipe again as if nothing had happened, and turned the pages of the book.

After five or six minutes, the screen finally turned on.

Hui Yuanai picked up the phone and saw Jiang Xia's skillful ordering: [Curry rice, sweet taste, don't put too many vegetables]

Hui Yuanai automatically ignored the last request, replied with a short "yes", and then put down the phone with peace of mind.

This reply, no matter in terms of speaking habits or content, is exactly Jiang Xia's tone.

It's me.

When she finished replying to the message, the doctor had also listened to Conan's brain supplement, and became anxious with Conan.

He picked up his coat and planned to go out to find someone together.

Before leaving, Dr. Ali remembered Hui Yuan Ai's behavior of coming over to eavesdrop just now, and thought that she had been delivering meals to Jiang Xia during this time, and the relationship between the two seemed to be quite harmonious. Perhaps Hui Yuan Ai was also worried about Jiang Xia , so she comforted her: "It's not convenient for you to go out, so just wait for the news at home."

"I didn't plan to go at all." Hui Yuanai said coldly, "Since those stupid detectives chose to 'satisfy their curiosity', they should be prepared to pay the price for it."

The doctor sighed, opened the door and left.
