Conan’s Corpse Picker

"Good boy."

With a proud smile, Minamoto Kurena lowered her hand and touched Kid's face, casually wiping away the fine cold sweat on his skin.

Then she took out her mobile phone and coaxed softly:

"Hold on a little longer. When I contact him, I will let you out immediately. I will also prepare your favorite refreshments and a place to relax and bathe for you... Come on, tell me his number."

"110." Kidd breathed hard, trying his best to finish the sentence without any lag:

"The contact code is 'I was kidnapped by Koizumi Anko from Tokyo's Ekoda High School and the strange Obasan she invited, please help me quickly'."

Minamoto Hongnai really pressed "1" on the dial button: "..."

Koizumi Anko, who stood silently aside, was shocked that Kiritengu could actually use a mobile phone, and planned to save the monster's contact information while he was in trouble: "..."

The air in the castle was silent for a few seconds.

After a while, Minamoto Hongna's forehead jumped slightly. A faintly angry smile curled up at the corner of her mouth, which was shrouded in red robes. She raised her staff and knocked it hard against the ground.

The red magic power overflowed like a spring, like a meat grinder targeting the soul, crushing and tearing every cell. Kidd was still taunting him, but now his throat suddenly became hoarse, and what he wanted to say turned into a painful groan.

Minamoto Kurenai also snorted.

She stood up, straightened out the wrinkles on her robe, no longer looked at Kidd, but turned to the servant at the door and ordered:

"Go find some of Kidd's previous notice letters, make a copy of them, and publish them in the newspaper as soon as possible."

... Without knowing the contact information between Kidd and Kiritengu, rashly using a warning letter to attract Kiritengu may cause the other party to become suspicious.

However, even if it becomes suspicious, the monster will probably go nearby to check the situation, or send someone familiar with it.

At that time, as long as they see "Kidd" present, they will definitely find a way to contact "Kidd".

Judging from the scene in the crystal ball, it was not the first time that Kidd and the monster met at the scene of theft. If you put this hook and bait down, it will not be difficult to catch the foggy dog.

…

The next afternoon.

Central Commercial Street.

Jiang Xia carried a lot of various bags and watched Mao Lilan's lottery draw.

——In two months, it will be time for Didan High School to hold a campus festival.

As a fairly grand event in Rice Flower Market, various programs have now entered the preparation stage.

Jiang Xia's 2nd grade class B also has a play to perform.

Mao Lilan was recommended as the heroine who plays the princess in the drama early on. Although the class prepared princess costumes, Suzuki Sonoko was not satisfied no matter how she looked at them.

In the end, Mao Lilan couldn't resist the whispers of Suzuki Sonoko who disliked the skirts in the class, and decided to add some decorations to the skirts by hand.

So the three of them came out early in the morning, planning to buy some suitable white gauze and decorations.

——At first, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko were worried that Jiang Xia would find it boring to go shopping with girls.

Unexpectedly, when they talked about this matter, Jiang Xia took the initiative to come with them without inviting them.

The two girls were stunned for a moment, and soon felt that they understood - the stage play was related to the honor of the class, and it was a grand group activity. Jiang Xia really listened to their usually calm guidance and decided to try his best. Integrate into the group...Take him shopping, you must go!

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko originally wanted to go shopping in the afternoon.

But suddenly Jiang Xia appeared, so they changed their plan - they planned to go out early and finish their shopping while there were fewer people in the morning, so as not to have Jiang Xia's psychological shadow on "accompanying them when shopping" and never being able to invite them again.

However, after walking around for a while, I found that Jiang Xia showed no sign of reluctance and was even quite interested in the surrounding environment...

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko immediately relaxed and accidentally started shopping mode.

...Then the time flew by into the evening.

Jiang Xia silently glanced at the pile of bags he helped carry.

He didn't know whether the decorative materials were purchased or not.

There is no shortage of all kinds of clothes and bags, and there are even two pairs of shoes...

Before, when Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan were shopping, Jiang Xia had been paying attention to the surroundings, trying hard to hear if there were any screams or sirens nearby... but there were none.

The commercial street is very quiet today. Even the scheduled episodes like bag robbers didn’t appear.

Jiang Xia finally silently glanced at the setting sun in the distance, and then looked at the lottery box in front of her that gave away lottery numbers for buying clothes.

——If you want to pick up something today, then this is your last hope.

...Moori-san’s European style shouldn’t disappoint anyone.

Just as he was thinking about it, a soft cry of surprise came from the front, and it was Mao Lilan's voice: "I'm hit!"

Jiang Xia breathed a sigh of relief silently, and felt relieved after switching his hands, which were a little sore after carrying bags all day.

…

Mao Lilan drew a set of VIP theater family tickets, which can bring four people in.

The name of the play is "The Blood Garden". It sounds like a suspense drama, but it is actually a tortuous love story that reflects the dark side of the human heart.

"I have read the novel of the same name of this drama before..." Suzuki Sonoko casually opened the brochure that came with the ticket, which contained the list of starring actors in the drama.

As she flipped through the pages, her round almond-shaped eyes curled up with a smile: "Mihua Art Theater - it's on the next street. I happened to stop by after dinner. Let's go and have a look."

Conan also followed him out in the morning and spent the whole day shopping with him. At this point, he was extremely bored and deeply regretted the decision he made this morning.

Hearing Suzuki Sonoko's words, he yawned sleepily: "I've watched it too, it's a very boring drama... Why don't you go home early? Aren't you tired after wandering for so long?"

However, Suzuki Sonoko was very interested: "What does a little kid know? The drama is indeed boring, but the lead actor is handsome! This is played by Uda Yuichi..."

As he spoke, Suzuki Sonoko's voice lowered.

She suddenly remembered that things were different now than usual - now she was not only surrounded by her best friend, but also Jiang Xia.

So he suppressed his nymphomaniac smile and said reservedly:

"Ahem, it can mainly be used as a reference - you see, you are going to act in a play soon. Watch more plays and learn from professional actors so that it doesn't look too stiff!"

"Indeed." The first one to agree was Jiang Xia. The three of them heard him say seriously, "I rarely watch dramas and lack experience in this area. It's rare to get a ticket, so why not go and watch it."

…

Three votes in favor.

The remaining child, who looked reluctant, had no human rights in the voting process and could only be regarded as a pendant. Equivalent to unanimous vote.

So in the end, the three of them had dinner and dragged a schoolboy who looked like a salted fish to the Mihua Art Theater.

Jiang Xia found a seat and sat down, looking around to see if there was anyone nearby with murderous intent.

But suddenly I heard a familiar name coming from behind me.
