Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 416 Is the boss here? Give me some gold and ask for a monthly pass~\\(≧▽≦)~

Some kind of indescribable joy finally welled up belatedly. Asai Narumi's eyes turned red, tears flowed out again, and the second wave of tears of joy began.

He will resign tomorrow and pack his bags to return to Tokyo.

...Speaking of which, Jiang Xia is also in Tokyo. If you have a chance in the future, go to him and ask him what you want to ask - such as why you just left him without asking a word... Didn't they all say high school students? Is the detective very curious? Could it be that Jiang Xia can't stand seeing others cry?

Asai Makoto stood up, patted the dirt-stained skirt, and walked home thoughtfully.

…

Jiang Xia returned to the community activity center and helped the police look at the scene.

The fire destroyed too much evidence. It can only be seen that the initial explosion point was the small kitchen of the community activity center, and not many human traces were found.

Jiang Xia didn't plan to stay too long, and he wasn't a professional in firefighting, so he excused himself to have exams at school and quickly left Yueying Island.

It was getting late, so he returned to the main island and stayed there until dawn.

The next morning, we took a passenger ship to the mainland of Tottori Prefecture.

While on the boat, Jiang Xia bought a newspaper.

The police gave a basic guess about the explosion last night - when Kuroiwa, Kawashima and other families gathered in the community activity center to turn on the stove, something went wrong in the kitchen and they suffered a disaster.

Jiang Xia: "..."

It's quite perfunctory.

But there is nothing I can do. Most of the police in this world have this style... I don’t know if gin and vodka have left those drug dealers alive. If they have, in a few years there may be "descendants of drug dealers who murdered those who were there" News like "Police investigating the case" appeared in the newspapers... But, well, it's probably still a very long time from that time.

After flipping the newspaper back and forth several times, the boat docked.

…

Jiang Xia got off the boat, stepped onto the coast, then got on a passing bus and prepared to go to the train station.

On the road, vehicles travel through the mountains.

Jiang Xia looked at the mountain scenery and the occasional mountain villas through the wide and clear car windows, and a word slowly emerged in his mind.

——Golden Villa.

Ah, no, it’s Dusk Villa.

A while ago, after accidentally picking up the maple leaf gold coins that were delivered to her door, Jiang Xia had nothing to do and checked several other places where the treasures were buried. She was going to get some funds to spend when she was short of money one day. .

But later on, I never found a place to spend money. In addition, for a spiritual medium like him, except for ghosts and shikigami that can be taken away at any time, everything else is really outside the body...

Therefore, after Jiang Xia confirmed those locations, he did not rush to look for them. He just planned to pick them up when he passed by them in the future.

And now, he remembered that Tottori Prefecture, which he was passing through at this time, happened to have a huge gold storage point - Dusk Annex.

Decades ago, the Dusk Annex was the property of the Karasuma family - that is, the property of "that gentleman" in the organization.

But at that time, Renya Karasuma, the owner of the annex, only knew that there was a treasure hidden in the annex, but he did not know what the treasure was or where it was.

After searching unsuccessfully, Renya Karasuma was desperate for money and eventually sold the annex.

As far as Jiang Xia knows, there is actually no treasure hidden in the annex. The treasure is the annex itself.

——The entire annex is wrapped in gold, and there is an ordinary shell outside the gold.

As long as the clock mechanism inside the villa is turned, the old castle shell used to cover it will fall off, revealing the massive gold underneath.

…

Now that everyone is here, Jiang Xia decided to stop by and have a look.

First, he remembered that there had been a massacre in the annex. Now, there may still be ghosts left inside.

In addition, although Karasuma's old house has been sold long ago, it has been passed on to countless hands, and it has fallen into the hands of a down-and-out gourmet detective at a low price.

But since this castle is related to the organization, once the gold in it is exposed, unless the official agency intervenes first, the organization may not let this castle go - in Jiang Xia's view, rounding it off, it can also be regarded as property of the organization.

Not long ago, the organization's loyal cadres not only allowed him to pick up three less ghosts out of thin air, but also tried to shock him with a semi-finished necklace that was still under development. Now when he is watching ghosts, he can pry out a little bit of the gold from the boss's hometown. It shouldn't be too much. Bar……

Jiang Xia found a barely passable excuse for the upcoming illegal behavior, then settled down and prepared to become a gold miner.

…

The bus soon arrived at the nearest urban area.

Jiang Xia got out of the car and walked two streets to the car rental agency, but did not go into battle in person.

He found a hidden place, released a large number of shikigami from the heart seals, and let them hug together and turn into solid puppet clay.

Then he picked up Miss Spider, who was standing watching with her sleeves rolled up, and threw her in.

The ghost tire serves as a basic stent fusion.

Soon, a figure wearing a kimono and a white gauze hat took shape in front of Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia looked at this fairly normal puppet, then walked around behind her and carefully checked her back.

After confirming that the clothes there were neat and there were no strange bulges or strange hooks, Jiang Xia safely let the main body stand nearby and hung up, attaching his consciousness to the new puppet.

Soon, a "woman" wearing a kimono and a white gauze hat came out of the alley.

She looked around and headed to the car rental agency.

Miss Spider is a new ghost who has just been brought home, and Jiang Xia hasn't had time to apply for a false certificate for her.

But in the past, Jiang Xia had prepared a set of certificates for the two forms of his parents' ghosts when they turned into puppets.

——The parent ghosts usually hug each other tightly, their abdomens are glued together and cannot be separated.

So when you throw them into puppet clay, you can only make a couple hugging each other all the time...or try to shrink one party into a young man with a huge beer belly, or a pregnant woman who looks like she is about to give birth.

Car rental companies may not dare to rent a car to a pregnant woman of this level. The beer-bellied guy once rented a sports car for Jiang Xia in Tokyo, and he even ran into Gin in that car... If he were to show up in Tottori Prefecture again at this time, I always felt that there might be a flaw.

So this time, Jiang Xia simply adopted a brand new puppet.

…

When renting a car, Jiang Xia took out the fake driver's license that she had obtained for her mother.

——Miss Spider is a puppet with heavy makeup. In addition, every time a puppet is generated, since Jiang Xia will also support the puppet, the appearance of the puppet will be half of the ghost fetus and half of Jiang Xia's spirit body.

Therefore, upon closer inspection, Miss Spider and the "Pregnant Woman" actually look somewhat similar. And when taking the driver's license ID photo, no one deliberately took pictures of the bulging belly... It can be used as a temporary replacement.
