Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 110 Kidd is also a worker plus the leader of the alliance [Full Stack Susu]

Conan is looking at the notice letter in his hand, trying to decipher the information left by Kidd - Kidd likes to write a lot of rhetorical sentences in the notice letter, and cleverly hides his crime time and appearance location in the text .

  Yesterday, Conan studied all night and couldn't understand what Kidd was saying, so today, he came to the scene to try to find inspiration.

   At this time, when he heard Sonoko Suzuki greet Jiang Xia, Conan was startled while holding the notice.

A second later, he took out the soundproof earplugs he had just bought and put them in his ears - he bet 1,200 yen that Jiang Xia's first sentence after coming over was definitely "I read the invitation letter yesterday. , I feel like Kidd will appear at ××× at ××××” and so on.

   However... Jiang Xia didn't say anything.

The classmate just nodded to Maurilan and Suzuki Sonoko, said hello, then walked over to Conan, patted him on the shoulder with a solitary demeanor, and finally sat silently on the sofa in the corner for hospitality. .

  Conan: "...?"

   Well, the bet is lost.

  I am willing to accept the bet, just today there is a single book release of the detective left character series, so I spent 1200 yen to buy it.

  Conan quickly settled his bet.

   Then he happily took off the earplugs and ran to Jiang Xia's side - looking at Jiang Xia's taciturn and listless appearance, he must have failed to solve the puzzle!

  ... So many times, when facing Jiang Xia, Conan had a feeling of "everyone standing on the same starting line" for the first time, and he rekindled his fighting spirit.

Conan remembered how Jiang Xia encouraged him just now, and he also followed suit, patted Jiang Xia's forearm on the armrest of the sofa, and carried forward his competitive spirit: "Don't be discouraged, let's play and see who can answer what he gave first. puzzle."

   "Puzzle?" Jiang Xia turned to look at Conan, his eyes fell on the note in his hand.

   That's a copy of Kaitou Kid's notice - the original was torn to scum by Suzuki Sonoko's dad in a rage, so he could only make up a few more copies.

  Suzuki Sonoko also gave Jiang Xia a copy. Jiang Xia remembered that the above contents were:

  【April·fool

   When the moon separates the two

   in the name of the dark star

   Invited to the waves

  I will drive there]

   Jiang Xia said with no interest: "Oh, you said this."

   "Yeah..." Conan listened to Jiang Xia's tone, recalled his attitude towards the notice, and had a bad feeling.

He instinctively reached for his earplugs again, but it was too late - Jiang Xia sighed: "Kid probably wanted to say that he would appear on the roof of the Cup Hu Hotel after 0:00 in the middle of the night, and at the latest No more than four-thirty in the morning."

   Conan, who just flattened the earplugs and hadn't had time to put them into the ear canal: "..."

  ... Could you speak a little slower next time!

   Jiang Xia had already seen Conan's earplugs.

  So when Conan came to ask him about Kidd, Jiang Xia simply pierced the answer directly, so that Conan would not spend energy and brainpower on Kidd, and concentrate on doing what "Conan" should do.

Conan sadly put the earplugs that didn't work at all back into the box, and at the same time summed up his mistakes in his heart-earplugs are really too slow to use. Wait for them to swell in the ear canal and close the gap...

   Now it seems that this can't keep up with the speed of Jiang Xia's puzzle solving.

   Next time, I'll buy some sound-isolating earmuffs and hang them directly around my neck. When Jiang Xia opens his mouth, he immediately picks them up and puts them on...

  Conan sighed. At this moment, he looked again at the note that kept him awake almost all night, and it was as if he was looking at the title with the answer to a mystery.

   And Conan's brain is spinning fast, and he has studied the notice for a long time, so the moment Jiang Xia said the answer, he almost understood how the result came out.

  Conan lost the light in his eyes. He leaned on the sofa and thought about life tiredly. Suddenly, he felt a little strange: "Why didn't you tell the police?"

Jiang Xia still looked uninterested: "It doesn't matter, the letter specifically says 'Aprilfool', Happy April Fool's Day - in addition to the announcement that his action date is April 1st, he probably also said to us 'Happy April Fool's Day'. ' meaning. And this is a commonly used supporting line when playing tricks. That is to say, even if Kidd appeared there today, as shown in the preview, he would probably just wait and see, and would not start stealing."

   "April Fool's Day..." Conan tasted the word. According to the information he found yesterday, Kidd was quite punctual in stealing things.

   If another person said to Conan something like "Kid was joking", Conan might suspect that the person was thinking too beautifully. But now, it was Jiang Xia who said this...

Jiang Xia continued: "So we don't have to go there on purpose, and we don't have to worry about making a mistake - Kidd has the habit of sending notices before taking action, and even if we don't go, he will definitely find a way to put it out for his own sake. The second notice has been sent."

  Conan: "..."

  I don't know why, Jiang Xia said this, he suddenly felt that Kidd, who was flying majestic in the sky, was a bit miserable, like a down-and-out thief who was pinched at his weakness and used at will.

   The same person who was persecuted by Jiangxia, Conan suddenly felt a little sympathy for Kidd.

   But he quickly thought again, Jiang Xia's decision can't be said to be completely wrong - Kidd has committed countless crimes in the past, but he has never left anything like fingerprints that can prove his identity.

Even if the police arrive in time according to the time and place indicated in the notice, and even if they catch someone successfully, as long as Kidd is thick-skinned, he can still say that he is just a cosplayer wearing Kidd's clothes and playing cosplay on the roof. Passers-by - he hasn't stolen anything yet and can't be caught on the spot.

   And if the police knew this, they would definitely deploy a large number of police forces to surround the building. But the top floor of the Cuphu Hotel is very high, which is Kidd's home court. By then, all the police have passed, and Kidd will swoosh directly to the Rice Corn Museum with a glider on his back and steal the dark stars... but it is not good.

   said so, but Conan is still a little curious about the person who can make up a puzzle that he has not solved all night. I would love to meet him for a while.

Jiang Xia vaguely felt Conan's complicated mood. He thought for a while, and after a while, he whispered: "If you are interested in Kidd, you can go to the roof to play with him during that time." In short, please increase contact Strength, let Kidd get the aura that the detective world should have as soon as possible...

  …

   Having said that, before leaving, Jiang Xia thought about it and reported it to the police.

  ——Although he has no interest in Kidd at this stage, in the future, in the days when there are murder cases around Kidd, if he has a little related reputation now, it will undoubtedly be easier to participate...
