Conan’s Corpse Picker

Toru Amuro is a man with many vests and can seamlessly switch between various identities. As long as he wants to be talkative, he can be very talkative.

He fits in quickly.

In fact, at the beginning, Toru Amuro didn't plan to travel with two high school girls and an elementary school student.

But just now, as soon as Jiang Xia saw these three people, he turned around as if he couldn't walk, and couldn't shout... Amuro Toru and Jiang Xia went downstairs together before, and it was a bit deliberate to separate them now. If there are suspicious people in this restaurant, it may arouse suspicion.

So Toru Amuro had no choice but to follow.

Then comfort yourself, a few more people to cover, is also a good plan.

In addition, Amuro Toru is actually a little curious - Jiang Xia's attitude towards these people is obviously very unusual. To be honest, the moment Jiang Xia stopped when he went downstairs just now, Toru Amuro felt that the employee's eyes seemed to be catching rape.

However, after following Jiang Xia's line of sight, Toru Amuro felt that he had made a mistake—there were obviously two girls sitting at this table, and a negligible elementary school student.

...

When Toru Amuro was making friends with his classmates, Jiang Xia took a look at the B\u0026B, focusing on the waiters.

There is no black-skinned tough guy mixed in.

He looked at Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko again.

The two female classmates were wearing yukata today, as if they had just returned from a festival. In addition, Suzuki Sonoko had a camera at hand.

Jiang Xia: "..." I always feel that these elements are very familiar, like the configuration in a certain murder case.

And if it was really that case, then by now, Suzuki Sonoko should have been targeted by a dangerous serial killer.

...

——In my impression, after the killer was dumped by his ex-girlfriend, he hated all the women who had dyed their hair and liked to dress up.

He will try his best to get close to the target, lure the person to a secluded place, and then use a knife to dig out the woman's internal organs.

Tonight, the killer actually just killed a "prey".

He would immediately focus on Suzuki Sonoko again because Suzuki Sonoko happened to pass by the place of the murder on the way back from the festival.

After all kinds of coincidences, the killer thought that Suzuki Sonoko had taken photos of him when he committed the crime.

...

It stands to reason that at that time in the wilderness, the moon was dark and the wind was high, the murderer was holding a murder weapon.

Facing two weak girls who might have photographed his criminal evidence, he should have rushed over arrogantly, achieved triple kills, and then snatched away the evidence.

However, out of a certain intuition, the killer finally lay down in the grass and watched the three go away.

He just silently remembered the face of the girl who took the picture—that is, Suzuki Sonoko, and speculated from Suzuki Sonoko's unchanging pace that she just took a random photo, and didn't realize what she had photographed.

...

So the killer decided to follow them, find out where they lived, and wait for an opportunity to snatch the film from the camera, and launched a series of fatal persecutions against Suzuki Sonoko.

According to the general situation, there should be a hero here to save the beauty.

But Jiang Xia looked around, but did not see the shadow of the hero.

Jiang Xia silently looked away.

Forget it, it doesn't matter. Anyway, the murderer is a war scum, and it is not difficult to solve.

Compared with this, Jiang Xia wants to see that murderer sooner.

He touched the stick in his pocket expectantly.

...

When Jiang Xia was planning to hit someone.

The ordered meals were brought out one after another.

During the meal, seeing that Amuro Toru had no objection, Jiang Xia extended an invitation to the three students:

"Tomorrow, let's go to the nearby pottery classroom to play - the client of the office sent an experience coupon, the number of people is not limited."

Of course the other three would not refuse.

Mao Lilan was even a little happy: "It happens that I'm going to meet an important person in a few days, and I haven't decided what gift to choose. Now that I think about it, handmade pottery should be very good."

Conan's ears moved: "Who are you seeing?"

Mao Lilan originally wanted to talk about going to see her mother - her mother is currently separated from Mao Li Kogoro, and the mother and daughter will go out to get together every now and then.

However, before she said it, Mao Lilan suddenly realized why she should tell the elementary school students such things.

So Mao Lilan thought for a while, swallowed the words again, and tapped Conan's head lightly: "Children, don't inquire about adults."

...

Suzuki Sonoko also nodded happily.

After today, her "civilian seduction strategy" has achieved initial results.

...the effect is that it has no effect at all. There is no need to go any further.

Whether it was on the train when we came here, or at the festival just now, or even when we were sitting here ordering... the boys passing by were all looking at Xiaolan.

The only exception is probably Jiang Xia.

However, Jiang Xia has no reference value: because according to Suzuki Sonoko's observation, Jiang Xia has always looked at each of them equally, and even Conan has his eyes.

Thinking of this, Suzuki Sonoko sighed faintly:

Anyway, I can't catch wild handsome guys, so I might as well follow Jiang Xia to the pottery classroom.

Speaking of which, Jiang Xia's boss is actually very handsome, is it true that handsome guys tend to appear in clusters...

...

It's a little late today, and the pottery classroom is closed.

Several people made an appointment to meet the next morning, and then returned to their respective rooms.

In the middle of the night, Toru Amuro went to Kikuemon's house alone to investigate, without Jiang Xia, and let Jiang Xia be in charge of the lookout.

Jiang Xia nodded solemnly in response.

He watched Anshi Toru leave the room, and watched him climb over the wall.

Wait until Toru Amuro can no longer see this side.

Jiang Xia left the window, lay down to catch up on sleep, and subcontracted the task of watching the wind to two clever ghosts.

——In the eyes of the members of the organization, in Kikuemon's house, there seems to be a mysterious person who is deliberately trying to eavesdrop on the organization's secrets.

However, in Jiang Xia's eyes, the "pottery for eavesdropping" in the meeting room of the organization was probably just made by a pottery maker, who wanted to use it as a tool for murder, but was accidentally sold by someone else.

Kikuemon's family didn't have a dog, and they didn't even employ security guards.

Not to mention sneaking in, even if Toru Amuro wanted to walk sideways inside, there was no problem at all.

So when Jiang Xia released his teammates, his conscience didn't hurt at all.

...

When Toru Amuro came back, he found nothing. We can only hope for future investigations.

The pottery classroom only opens in the afternoon.

At noon the next day, the five of them had dinner and left the homestay.

During this time, Jiang Xia finally found the person he was looking for.

——The killer was wearing a flowery shirt, dressed like a playboy, and was wandering around the hotel.

From Jiang Xia's point of view, he is really easy to recognize.

——This man has four shikigami on his legs. Even if he is thrown into the crowd, he is like a bright light in the dark night, firmly attracting Jiang Xia's attention.

...

The murderer—that is, Masahiko Michiri, originally planned to use the beauty trick to get close to Suzuki Sonoko.

Because last night, he heard Suzuki Sonoko complain that no one approached her.

Masahiko Michiri has even thought out his lines.

However, it never occurred to him that after only one night of missing him, there would be a man born out of thin air next to the target, and two more at once.

Masahiko Daori observed secretly for a while, and then found unwillingly and dejectedly: the beauty trick may not work on Suzuki Sonoko, unless she prefers decadent uncle's style...

"..." But even so, a way must be found to take away the film. Otherwise, once Suzuki Sonoko developed the film, his murder would not be hidden.

...

Soon, Masahiko Michiri saw Suzuki Sonoko and her companions and left the hotel.

He gritted his teeth and wanted to walk over, find an excuse to go with him temporarily, and wait for the opportunity to steal the camera.

However, before that, Masahiko Michiri was startled suddenly.

He saw Suzuki Sonoko and his group more than ten meters away, and stopped.

—A woman in a black dress came out from the shadows of the porch and stopped in front of them.

...

Suzuki Sonoko had never met Anonymous, and did not know her.

Amuro felt that the person blocking the way looked familiar, but he was not sure yet.

Mao Lilan and Conan looked at the person in front of them, stunned.

It was still the familiar long black gauze dress, the sun hat with the wide brim, the pale skin and the cold and silent aura... But now, when the two of them saw her again, they felt the same It is completely different from the original Shinkansen.

——Before, the cold and fair skin only made people think that Anonymous didn't like sunbathing.

But now, when the name "Anonymous" came to mind, Mao Lilan and Conan were both excited, thinking of "Wraith" at the same time.

——Under the gaze of so many people, Anonymous jumped off the Shinkansen with a pack of bombs, and then the explosives exploded.

Although no one saw her being bombed with their own eyes, but in that situation... Can anyone really survive?

Merlin's eyes widened. She felt that at this time, she should thank Anonymous for saving the whole car and her life.

But the attribute of being afraid of ghosts made her tremble again, jumping repeatedly on the verge of her soul leaving her body. In the end, Mao Lilan could only bow substandardly, and reluctantly expressed his gratitude with actions.

Anonymous nodded slightly in response.

Then she raised the brim of her hat, revealing a pair of darker eyes, looking at Sonoko Suzuki with a clear goal: "Hello."
