Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 491: Kidnapper Toru Amuro, please vote for me (〃)

The plan given by Kazami Yuya is to cut off Jiang Xia's communication with the outside world, and suddenly take him to a random location, far away from Tokyo, so far away that Jiang Xia doesn't know anyone, and can't set any possible traps in advance.

Then in this case, let's see if Jiang Xia will encounter a case like before.

...When he heard this suggestion, the first thought that flashed through Amuro's mind was——

Outrageous.

But thinking about it afterwards, the more I thought about it, the more I felt it made sense.

...This seems to be the one with the simplest operation, the highest feasibility, and the most clear conclusion among the countless options currently available, and it will not cause much harm to all parties - he can completely make this trip, Package it as a confidential mission from the organization and reasonably take away Jiang Xia's communication tools, so that even if the suspicion is wrong, Jiang Xia shouldn't think too much about it.

And today is the day to just leave.

Amuro entered the office, looked at Jiang Xia, hesitated, and was about to speak.

But at this moment, the door was pushed open with a bang, and a burly man rushed in.

Toru Amuro: "..."

He silently glanced at the visitor and swallowed his words temporarily.

At the same time, he turned to look at the door of the detective agency, thinking with some regret that when he came in just now, he should have hung a "Closed" sign or lowered the rolling shutter door... In the past, the "Closed" sign was often hung, but this set He is very skilled in operating it, but since Jiang Xia came, the sign has not been used much, and now it has been thrown into nowhere - as long as Jiang Xia is in the office, he will refuse almost anyone who comes and will not give up. any guest.

Such a diligent young man, I really don’t want him to be a cadre of the organization...

Jiang Xia looked at Toru Amuro and then at the anxious guests, showing hesitation.

Toru Amuro remembered that he had not said anything yet and that Jiang Xia would not notice the "just leave" plan, so he nodded to Jiang Xia and motioned for him to receive the guests first, while he turned around to make tea as usual. .

——If Jiang Xia is forced to ignore the guests, close the door and leave with him, then what if Jiang Xia is really Wu Zuo, and this guest happens to be someone connected with Wu Zuo, and spreads the news that Jiang Xia was taken away? , Uzo’s men may take the opportunity to respond. In this way, Amuro Tohru would have to guard against possible tracking and smoke bombs released by Uzo's subordinates. There were too many variables.

It's better to wait a little and wait until no one is around before starting to plan. This is more secure.

Hiss, why do I feel like a sneaky kidnapper...

Amuro Toru's thoughts were briefly distracted for a moment, and then quickly returned to business.

——The guest who came to the door just now seems to be a rich man with some social status judging from his clothes, watch, etc.

In other words, a person who is qualified to be assassinated by the organization.

...This also happens to be a good observation opportunity.

——Although I have decided to try Yuya Kazami’s “just leave” plan. But Toru Amuro's long-standing behavior pattern still makes him instinctively want to escape this metaphysical experimental method, which sounds very loose, and prefers to observe on the spot, see the situation with his own eyes, and find out the flaws - just like now so.

While I was thinking, the water in the pot was already boiling.

Toru Amuro came to her senses and turned off the switch skillfully.

Then he stared at the teacup for a moment.

...Why is he trying to attack Jiang Xia again?

This agency is "Amuro Detective Agency", right?

...Forget it, since it is your own office, you should do some work yourself. The service industry is to serve customers. This is not about being an employee, but just embodying the spirit of service.

Toru Amuro sighed quietly, made tea and served it to the table. Then when the customer wasn't paying attention, he took a cup himself and sat aside to listen to the details and observe secretly.

The customer was a tall man, wearing a brown custom-made suit and a fierce ring moustache.

He glanced at the entrustment register that was handed over with the black tea, and wrote his name casually.

The following reasons for entrustment, etc. are all left blank.

The guest dropped his pen and said anxiously: "I came to you because I am being hunted recently - I want you to find the killer and tell him to stop!"

Toru Amuro: "...?"

Being targeted and attempted to be assassinated is not unusual. After all, there are many people who have enemies... But the guest whose name is written "Chao Wenzao" uses very strange words.

"Find the killer", "Tell him to stop"...

How did he know it wasn't a vendetta, but that he was being targeted by a professional killer? Moreover, since he knows so clearly that he is being hunted, it means that the killer must have already taken action. At this time, shouldn't he consider calling the police first...

Although there were many questions in his mind, Toru Amuro still remembered the main purpose of staying here to observe the commission - to observe Jiang Xia.

He held the tea cup and said nothing.

Next to him, Jiang Xia seemed to have noticed something unusual in his words, and asked quite directly: "If you tell him to stop, will he really stop? Do you know that killer?"

Chao Wenzao sighed and took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat: "Five days ago, when I went for a physical examination, my gastric ulcer was misdiagnosed as late-stage gastric cancer. I didn't want to wait for death in the hospital bed, so I hired a doctor on impulse. The famous 'Silver Fox' came to kill him.

"Who knew that after paying the deposit, that bastard doctor actually said he was wrong...

"I wanted to contact Yinhu to stop, but I couldn't get in touch with the previous method. When I looked for other contact methods, I inevitably saw some reports about him - he is really a very dangerous person. The more I read The more I can't sit still, I heard that detectives are very good at finding people, so I can only come to you to try."

Jiang Xia nodded thoughtfully: "I heard that in order to avoid leaking information, 'Silver Fox' will cut off all non-essential contacts like a seclusion after accepting an order. He is a very dedicated killer - no wonder you can't find him. he."

When Toru Amuro heard this, he glanced at Jiang Xia. Dedicated? He even used complimentary words for killers. He has been tortured by the organization for a long time. After all, his thinking is still different from that of his peers...

Just as he was thinking about it, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly felt a reflection flashing through the window of the building a hundred meters away.

"..." Is there anyone over there?

...sniper rifle?

…

When Jiang Xia saw the client's name, he had already recalled the information about the person related to the case from his memory bank, and realized that there was a ghost and murderous intention to pick up this time.

Therefore, his attitude towards this customer was quite friendly. At the same time, because he remembered something, he glanced out of the window out of the corner of his eye.

Just as he vaguely determined the sniper's position, Toru Amuro suddenly stood up - he approached at a speed that was too fast to see clearly, pushed Jiang Xia to the side, and grabbed the guest on the way.

The heavy sofa was knocked to an angle, and the three people fell simultaneously into a blind spot.
