Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 597: Survival without a car (additional update on anti-theft)

Looking out of the restaurant window, you can see a corner of the parking lot.

But the whole picture cannot be seen clearly.

Although the others were not that obsessed with cars, they still felt that what the cowboy detective said made sense. They nodded and stood up, preparing to go to the courtyard to check the status of the vehicles. After all, seeing is believing.

When he arrived at the hall and before going out, Toru Amuro paused slightly, thinking of Jiang Xia's ptsd who was sometimes ineffective.

——According to Conan, and some other gossip. For Jiang Xia, "destroyed car" plus "explosion" seemed to be one of the most direct triggering factors, and there was a chance that Jiang Xia would quickly fall into a hang-up state like losing his soul.

Thinking of this, he looked back at "Jiang Xia" who was following him: "You stay in the hall. Don't be too far from the door. If someone attacks you, you can run out."

Kidd was startled and nodded. His first reaction was to be secretly vigilant: Is the scumbag boss afraid that Jiang Xia will escape without authorization as soon as he gets outside?

However, as the others opened the door to go out and then closed it, Kidd vaguely heard the crackling and burning sound of the vehicle as the door opened and closed.

"..."

He gradually remembered that some tabloids had said that when Jiang Xia encountered a car accident, his reaction would slow down and the speed of solving the case would also drop significantly.

...Although I don’t know where the news was revealed, but combined with the reports on the corresponding case, it is quite credible.

In the past, when Kidd went to the black market to experience life in disguise, he occasionally heard from outlaws who planned to pretend to be innocent clients, invite Jiang Xia to the murder scene, and then use Jiang Xia's weakness to slow down his speed in solving the case. , and finally made Jiang Xia a witness that they had not committed any crime - in this world that values ​​detective reasoning, successfully escaping from Jiang Xia without guilt after committing a crime can barely be regarded as an acquittal trump card.

Thinking of this, Kidd looked at the closed door and sighed inwardly.

The detective he plays is really ill-fated.

I don't know if those cunning criminals who tried to take advantage of others' weaknesses have implemented their sinister plans... Tsk, when this incident is over and I leave, I have to find a way to remind Jiang Xia.

...But to put it this way, if Jiang Xia really has similar PTSD, then the scumbag boss seems to be quite humane in this regard? He actually took the initiative to remind him to avoid it.

...Of course, it cannot be ruled out that it is superficial consideration and secretly used to make Jiang Xia relax his vigilance; or he is worried that if Jiang Xia behaves too abnormally, other detectives will find out that something is wrong, and the police and the hospital may even intervene, making it difficult for him to harm himself. staff.

Kidd recalled Jiang Xia's quick response when faced with the sneak attack by "Toru Amuro", Jiang Xia's cell phone that was taken away, Jiang Xia's behavior of entering the deep forest instead of running to the gas station; and Toru Amuro installing surveillance cameras in the trunk and encountering others who exploded All kinds of behaviors like whispering wishes for death during pregnancy...

The label he attached to Toru Amuro in his heart was still very firmly labeled "suspicious scum".

outside the house.

Toru Amuro stood under the awning in front of the gate and suddenly sneezed.

He came back to his senses and felt the cold wind outside the house. He suspected that he had not slept for several days and was mentally stressed every day, which led to a decrease in his resistance.

A group of detectives stood at the prominent door and looked to the side, clearly seeing several burning cars.

The fire was extremely violent. With this attitude, it would not be surprising if the vehicle suddenly exploded the next second.

And all the cars were burning, no one was spared.

Jiang Xia wore Matsuda Jinpei's vest and leaned against the corridor. He glanced at the Alfa Romeo whose skeleton could only be barely made out, and then secretly looked at the cowboy detective, with hidden expectations in his eyes: My wife was innocently bombed, so I can't explain it without showing some murderous intent. Bar.

The detectives, however, seemed extremely ethical.

The cowboy detective's resolute face was covered with a layer of fire. There was only deep sadness and anger on it, but there was no murderous intention that Jiang Xia wanted to see.

In the end, the tall detective just clenched his fists with a sullen face, determined to catch the person behind the scenes and hand them over to the police. At the same time, he looked at his car and sighed sadly,

Jiang Xia also looked at him and sighed sadly. Scumbag, that's it?

Just as he was thinking about it, a faint question came from beside him.

Tohru Amuro came over again at some point, carefully observed his expression, and said slightly puzzled: "What's wrong? Your car isn't here."

Jiang Xia: "..."

...Why does it feel like the boss is staring at Matsuda more closely than "himself". Does he still remember that he is currently conducting observation experiments on "Jiangxia"?

...not dedicated, in short, very unprofessional.

I was quite condemning in my heart, but on my face I could only shake my head calmly: "I just think it will be difficult to leave here without a means of transportation."

"..." Toru Amuro thought that it didn't matter - his subordinates were still following behind. When Feng sees them following them halfway and discovers that the bridge is broken, he will definitely find an excuse to come in and pick them up. Just to avoid raising suspicion, they probably won't come too quickly...

The cowboy detective lost his beloved wife and looked at his car. His eyes were a little dull, but he had not lost his detective instinct.

He glanced around the row of cars and felt a little strange: "Mother-in-law Qianjian and the others came in that Mazda. Mine was an Alfa Romeo. I remember the Ferrari was Miss Gunda's. The big one was That Porsche..."

He counted four cars, but there were five burning in the parking lot.

Everyone else noticed the problem, too.

Toru Amuro looked at Hakuba Tan: "Is that Mercedes yours? You seem to have just turned 17."... You need to be 18 to get a driver's license, so you can drive without a license?

Bai Ma Tan shook his head and firmly pushed away the falling pot: "I came here by taxi."

The maid also followed and answered in a low voice: "That car may be the owner's car - when I came to the villa in advance to prepare for the dinner, it was already parked there."

"That's it." Gunda Ikumi looked at the maid, "Then how did you get here?"

"I drove here... The master said it was impolite to park my car at the front door, so he asked me to park it at the back door." At this point, the maid bit her thumb distressedly and said sadly, "I'm probably also being taken to the car now. Blow it up."

Others were startled: "Go to the back door and have a look." What if it didn't explode?

They turned toward the door, intending to return to the hall and across the atrium to the back door.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he almost bumped into "Jiang Xia" who was leaning against the door and eavesdropping.

Kidd ducked back nimbly, keeping his carefully disguised face.

The door here is very soundproof, and he didn't hear the conversation outside clearly: "...What's wrong?"
