Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 634: Subdue the law, Jiang Xia. Please vote for me (づど)

After pushing, I heard a small and noisy discussion among the crowd of onlookers.

Amuro Toru suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart.

Upon closer inspection, the victim actually moved his finger. The outstretched finger rested feebly on the ground, and as it turned, a small blurred blood stain was dragged out from underneath - he still pointed stubbornly at the place where Jiang Xia was, and at the same time, his blood-foamed mouth struggled to mutter something, He seemed to be trying to speak, but his voice was too low to be heard.

Soon, he closed his eyes completely.

Toru Amuro: "..."

He turned to look at Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia also looked confused.

After a few seconds, Jiang Xia seemed to have thought of something, and whispered in confusion: "Maybe he recognized me as a detective, so he wanted to entrust me to find the real murderer and avenge him."

Toru Amuro: "..." Really?

Why does he feel something is wrong...

…

Over at the haunted house, the police hadn't gone far yet.

At this time, I saw a bunch of people gathered here, accompanied by screams of terror, and I immediately rushed over without stopping.

The ambulance arrived soon.

However, after inspection, the ambulance crew regretfully gave up their position to the police - the person on the ground had unfortunately passed away.

Although Toru Amuro wanted to take the people away immediately and let the police here solve the case on their own.

However, just now, the finger pointed by the deceased before his death pointed out Jiang Xia as an important witness, making Jiang Xia unable to withdraw for a while.

——Even just now, Jiang Xia had been with the police or detectives and had no time to commit crimes. But the fact that the deceased was pointing at him so persistently must mean that Jiang Xia had some important clues.

If you still insist on leaving at this time, it really doesn't look like the behavior of a famous detective.

And whether it is Toru Amuro or Bobo, who hopes Jiang Xia can break into the upper class and become his intelligence agent, he should stay and help solve the case.

...In short, I can't leave this time even if I want to.

…

There is too much movement here, and it is just outside the campus, with no buildings that block the view too much.

Not long after, the unreliable crew and Hattori Heiji and others also followed the sound.

The people who came to watch from the production crew were startled when they saw the body.

Then he screamed and rushed over: "Mr. Xun?!"

Hattori Heiji looked at the body in confusion, then looked at Jiang Xia who was being questioned by several policemen, and pulled over a familiar policeman: "What's going on over there?"

The policeman was used to being a tool for various detectives. When he pulled him back, he replied calmly:

"Just now a corpse was found here that was beaten to death with a blunt instrument. When it was first discovered, the deceased was actually still breathing. Later, in front of many people, he pointed at Jiang Xia - it was already confirmed that he was pointing at Jiang Xia. Listen It was said that the people who were traveling with Jiang Xia tried to push Jiang Xia away, but the deceased still pointed in his direction persistently, so..."

"..." Hattori Heiji glanced at the blood stains dragged under the fingers of the deceased. He also thought of the word "identify the murderer" and twitched the corners of his eyes. "You must be suspecting that Jiang Xia is the murderer. Isn't he..."

I was just about to say that he doesn't know how to kill people.

However, midway through his words, Hattori Heiji's mind suddenly flashed back to the past, where Jiang Xia secretly knocked on the murderer behind the police's back: "..."

In my impression, Jiang Xia seems different from a normal high school detective - he doesn't like to defeat the enemy with one move, but instead often knocks on the criminal... This is probably a sign of his extreme hatred of criminals.

In short, although Jiang Xia definitely doesn't have any bad intentions, if he misses...

"..."

Hattori Heiji was silent for a moment.

After that, the policemen around Jiang Xia dispersed. He pulled Jiang Xia over and asked secretly: "Hey, it's not really you who hit you, right? Well...you know, it's better to surrender than to escape, or, or if you can prove that you were in legitimate defense..."

"It's not me, I don't even know him." Jiang Xia glanced at him in surprise. Although he didn't say it clearly, his whole body exuded the innocent atmosphere of "I'm not that kind of person" and "Why do you think so?"

But what he said was not so innocent.

Hattori Heiji just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Jiangxia lower his voice and explain seriously: "Even if that person is really a vicious criminal, how could I hit the head? A head injury can easily lead to death or coma. If the criminal loses his How can he clearly reflect on the crimes he committed?"

Hattori Heiji:"……"

...Why is it that "beating prisoners", something that is illegal and inappropriate no matter how you look at it, comes out of Jiang Xia's mouth with an aura of righteousness?

Wait, speaking of this, didn't Mao Lilan say that Jiang Xia's beating of the prisoner was a stress reaction after being stimulated, but now it seems... this has nothing to do with stress! Jiang Xia was completely beating people while he was awake!

…It’s wrong to hit someone.

——Hattori Heiji wanted to say this.

But then I thought about it, Jiang Xia wouldn't listen even if he said it...

After a moment of silence, Hattori Heiji looked at the blue sky above the campus from a 45-degree angle.

Then he skipped this terrible topic, looked back as if nothing had happened, and entered the crime-solving mode: "I'll go to the crew to ask about the situation. They seem to know the deceased."

"I'll go too." Jiang Xia followed in a friendly manner.

Then he suddenly remembered something, turned to Toru Amuro, and planned to follow the procedure to tell the boss.

However, when he turned around, he saw the boss leaning quietly under a nearby tree, staring at his feet and watching the ants move. He looked detached and did not want to have anything to do with the world. He did not seem to want to talk to others.

"..." Jiang Xia was silent for a moment, deciding not to disturb Toru Amuro, who was in a bad mental state, and let him be alone.

He left quietly and came to the crew with Hattori Heiji.

…

The crew is being questioned by the police.

"Mr. Xun is our screenwriter."

"He is a very talented person, and he has always been very steady and organized. But I don't know why..." The director looked at the familiar corpse on the ground with some sadness in his eyes. "A few days ago, not long after we arrived here, he He suddenly left home...and the crew. To this day, none of us know where he is hiding.

"However, about half an hour ago, he suddenly sent the script for the new episode. We immediately tried to contact him, but we still couldn't.

"At that time, we thought he wanted to hide and create quietly. Who knew that when we saw him again, he would be like this now..."

Other crew members also nodded, confirming the director's statement.

After listening carefully, Hattori Heiji turned his head and wanted to ask Jiang Xia if he had seen anyone suspected of being a screenwriter around when he was filming. During that time, he sneaked into the haunted house with Toyama and Ye, so he could not observe it with his own eyes.

However, when he turned around, he saw Jiang Xia's eyes slightly lowered, falling on the calves of the people in front.
