Stay away from Conan.

Chapter 578 Attic Craftsman
When Takato drove back to Tokyo, he came to the downstairs of the apartment where Jozuka Emerald lived.

Gao Yuan originally wanted to put down Chengzhong Jadeite and leave, but Chengzhong Jadeite invited Gao Yuan to come to her house again——

"What's the matter?"

For such an invitation, subconsciously, Gao Yuan couldn't help asking.

As for this, Chengzuo Jadeite could not help but express some sadness and said:

"Mr. Gao Yuan, why are you so reluctant to go to my house? Because of today's incident, I want to treat you well! Are you so ungrateful?"

"But……"

Hearing what Chengzhong Jade said, Gao Yuan couldn't help thinking of the pile of garbage he saw in her bedroom at Chengzhong Jade's house.

In this regard, Gao Yuan couldn't help but feel disbelief in the word "entertainment".

However, Gao Yuan was embarrassed to express this feeling directly, so he couldn't help saying:
"Another day. I have some things to attend to."

"Hey? What's the matter?"

Seemingly interested, Chengzuo Jade couldn't help but say with glowing eyes:
"The murderer has been caught this time. Before the police asks for clues, what is the urgent matter for Mr. Gao Yuan?"

In this regard, Jian Chengzhong Jade should not know what happened last night, so she couldn't help but sighed, and began to explain——

"Yesterday, in a certain apartment building, there was actually a case where a person was believed to have cut off his limbs while he was still alive... But, the victim in this case was a man!"

"Oh……"

After listening to Gao Yuan's words, Chengzhong Jadeite couldn't help replying thoughtfully:
"The male victim... It looks like the one we caught today shouldn't be the same murderer!"

"Yes."

Gao Yuan didn't deny it either, and replied directly:

"According to the forensic investigation, it was found that in our incident, the severed limbs of the three murdered girls, according to the chronological order, can be judged from the cuts. The murderer's method of cutting the knife has obviously improved every time. A little bit from rusty to become proficient.

"However, in the incident last night, the murderer's method was extremely professional. Compared with the third murdered girl before, the method of attack was almost a qualitative leap. It is almost certain that the murderer was someone else! More importantly, , this time the one left at the scene is still a dead body!"

"Hey! Really!"

Hearing this, Chengzhong Jade immediately became interested, and couldn't help saying:
"This kind of case still happens at this time. It must be not easy! It is possible that behind this incident, there will be closer to the truth than the incident where we caught the murderer now!"

Shirozuka Emerald made a judgment like this——

"After all, compared to the three previous incidents... it's more like the 'Gus Group' is punishing traitors!"

"So, are you interested in investigating together?"

Gao Yuan also agreed with Chengzhong Jade's opinion, so he couldn't help asking.

"Of course I'm interested!"

Chengzuka Jade said affirmatively, but then felt a little helpless, leaned on the co-pilot's seat, and replied a little tiredly:
"However, let's forget about today. I was stunned by that guy's drug. Although I woke up now, I still feel very tired, so I don't want to move today..."

"Huh? Drugs...why are you so careless?"

Hearing what Chengzuo Jade said, Gao Yuan subconsciously asked with some concern.

"I don't want to either! I just went to that second-hand bookstore today, and I was thinking about how to get close to him, but when there was no one else in the store, he came up and covered my face with a drug-stained handkerchief." Mouth, I can't do anything about it..."

Shirozuka Jade said aggrievedly:
"With such a small body, I can't resist at all... However, thanks to the tracker that Mr. Gao Yuan gave me, I was able to touch the switch of the tracker at the last moment!"

When talking about this, Chengzhong Jadeite couldn't help but smiled happily at Gao Yuan——

"So, Mr. Gao Yuan, it's true that I want to thank you! Just come to my house! I have something to give you!"

Listening to Chengzuo Jade's very sincere speech, Gao Yuan thought for a moment, and finally agreed.

So, when I came to the apartment where Chengzhong Jade lived, I followed the other party to the residence of Chengzhong Jade once again, and this time, Chengzhong Jade didn't let Gao Yuan continue to wait in the living room, but took him to the residence of Chengzhong Jade In the bedroom—

"Mr. Gao Yuan, wait a moment..."

Chengzhong Jade looked at Gao Yuan just standing at the door of the bedroom, and didn't intend to come in, so Chengzhong Jade didn't force her, so she walked into the bedroom alone, and came to the desk in the bedroom, without thinking much, she just opened the desk drawers.

In the innermost part of the drawer, there is a safe locked by a combination lock. After Chengzui Jade entered the password, the safe was opened immediately, revealing the things inside——

That is a watch.

The rose gold round surface is equipped with a dark blue leather strap.

The rose-gold round case has a blue engraved dial inside. From this shape, it can be seen that this is a mechanical watch.

But something different is that the number circle where the hour and minute hands are located is not a concentric circle that is consistent with the dial like an ordinary watch, but a disc that is only two-thirds the size of the dial, and it is at ten o'clock on the dial. The position of the dial forms an inscribed style with the circle of the dial.

At the six o'clock position of the number circle, a large circular hollow is opened, and inside is a sphere-shaped tourbillon, which is constantly rotating.

In addition, in the blank space to the right of the digital dial at three o'clock, there is a moon phase disk.

As for the remaining blank area, there is also a disc composed of two concentric circles, and the expression also has pointers like hour and minute hands, pointing to the numbers on the two concentric circles——

Among them, the large concentric circle is a dial with 31 counts, while only twelve scales are set on the small concentric circle.

At the twelve o'clock position of the entire dial, there is a cross-like logo printed, with the words "Vacheron Constantin" written in English letters under the logo——

Taking the watch out of the safe, he held it in his hand and weighed it for a moment, and Chengzui closed his eyes slightly, and finally made up his mind, stood up and walked to Gao Yuan with a smile, and directly rolled up his wrist. Gao Yuan's left hand, and then helped put the watch on Gao Yuan's wrist——

"Mr. Gao Yuan, this watch is my thank you gift! You should take good care of it!"

Chengzuo Jade said with a light smile, and seeing how the watch was just on Gao Yuan's hand, she couldn't help saying:

"Well...it really fits very well!"

As for this, Gao Yuan looked at the watch that Chengzuo Jade put on for himself. This extremely complicated functional design——

Although I don’t understand watches, anyone who looks at the surface of this watch will think it is very precious!
Therefore, Gao Yuan wanted to decline and said:

"Student Chengzuo Jade, this is too precious, please take it back!"

As he said that, he was about to take off the watch, but was stopped by Chengzuo Jade——

"Mr. Gao Yuan, if you don't accept it, I will be angry! Besides, this watch is not expensive. After all, many of my customers have given me many watches of this brand! It's no big deal of!
"But if Mr. Gao Yuan doesn't cherish what I gave because of this, I will be very angry!"

Seemingly angry, Chengzhong Jadeite couldn't help saying.

So, looking at Chengzhong Jadeite's statement and feeling the heavy weight of the piece on his hand, Gao Yuan pondered for a moment, then nodded involuntarily:
"Okay, then I will accept it. If there is nothing else, I will leave first! I will not disturb your rest!"

"En! Mr. Gao Yuan, if there is any progress on that case, please let me know!"

Chengzhong Jadeite didn't keep anyone, so saying so, she watched Gao Yuan leave her room——

"The 'Eccentric World' of the 'Attic Craftsman' series...Mr. Gao Yuan, this should be the most suitable gift I can give you!"

Seeing the door being closed, Chengzui Jadei thought silently in her heart——

"Although I don't know why, but there is always a feeling... this watch can only play its true value in your hands!"
