Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 128 The Organizing Test

   Jiang Xia habitually confirmed the location of the monitor, then pulled up the scarf, tried to avoid the passageway that could be photographed, and went down to the negative second floor.

   There is a bar called Hagson here. The overall light is dim, and you can hear the singing of the resident singer when you stand at the door. What she sings is not a popular hit song, but some ignorant elegant music.

   This kind of contrast makes it hard to think that this is also the py location of the organization. If Tequila could maintain this elegant tone, he probably wouldn't have been targeted by Conan so quickly.

  Jiang Xia pushed open the door and entered, but before he could go in, he suddenly felt a shadow fall beside him.

   He turned his head suspiciously, and saw the bartender extending his hand to him with a smile: "Hello, is it convenient for you to show your ID? The one with the date of birth."

   Said, he inadvertently touched a sign next to him. As soon as the sign moved, Jiang Xia looked at it subconsciously—this bar is not open to minors.

   Jiang Xia: "..."

   Jiang Xia: "..."

   Jiang Xia: "???"

  ...You have to abide by the rules of every corner, are you really the industry of the organization? !

   It is definitely not easy to break through hard.

   Jiang Xia slowly touched his pocket: "Forgot to bring it."

   The bartender kept a perfect smile and did not let go: "Would it be convenient for you to go back and pick it up? We are open all night here, so there is no delay."

   Jiang Xia: "..."

   He glanced at the bartender, and the bodyguard who was approaching, turned around and went out, silently took out his mobile phone, and started to write an email.

  …

   A minute later, Jiang Xia smoothly followed the gin into the bar and entered a separate booth.

   When the two of them walked to the door, Vodka just came back from the bar with a few glasses of wine. He saw that the gin had left its original position, and asked in doubt, "Brother, what happened?"

  Gin glanced at him silently, and exhaled a cigarette in a complicated mood: "Next time, change the place."

  Vodka: "Huh?"

   After a minute, he followed the two of them into the booth and put the wine in front of Jiang Xia, when he suddenly understood: "Oh!"

   and then took away the cup that was just put down.

   Jiang Xia: "..."

   He pretended nothing happened and retracted his empty hand. Now, he suspects Vodka is undercover, and already has subjective evidence.

  Although it’s a little embarrassing to have nothing to drink, but luckily they weren’t here to play.

  Gin quickly got to the point and put a document on the table: "Kill him, the deadline is before the next election."

  Assassination?

   Jiang Xia took the information and opened it. On the first page was a photo of a middle-aged man. The target looked like he was in his early fifties, with a chubby figure, with a mustache and a bald spot on the top of his head.

   Jiang Xia has never seen this person.

   However, when he looked at the text next to the photo again, he immediately had an impression - according to the data, this person was called Ikemura Isao, who was the Minister of Defense and the Minister of Cabinet Office, and was also a member of the House of Representatives.

   In Jiang Xia's eyes, the job is not the point, the point is the person's name, Ikemura Xun.

   Judging from the spoiler Jiang Xia has mastered... This seems to be the deceased in a certain case.

After the    materials, there is an introduction to the family of Ikemura Xun. Jiang Xia turned the page and was more certain.

"He doesn't usually bring bodyguards. It's not difficult to want his life, but the point is that in this whole thing, we can't expose our existence." Jin Jiu said coldly, "Including the training time, you stay in the organization. The time is not too short, and our requirements for 'concealment' should be very clear."

  Jiang Xia: "..." That's not what you said when you collapsed the passers-by in the street and fired randomly with a machine gun.

   He said solemnly under the gaze of Gin: "I know."

  Gin nodded. The second generation of the organization is different from those who are recruited halfway, and it is much more worry-free: "After making a plan, submit it to me, and I will assign someone to you according to the situation. This is the test of the organization for you - if it succeeds, you will be in the future. Will become a full member, but if you fail..." He sneered, "You know the consequences."

   Jiang Xia cooperated and showed a little serious look.

   In fact, in his opinion, as long as the bottom line of "not exposing the existence of the organization" is followed, a simple murder should not be silenced. Assassination of Ikemura Xun is a major event, the organization will not really hand over such an important matter to him, there must be a backup plan, and failure will not delay the great cause of the organization.

   In addition, in Jiang Xia's eyes, this is actually a question of giving points.

   In addition to Ikemura-hoon, there are photos of his family in the profile. When Jiang Xia looked over, he saw Ikecun Xun's wife, Ikecun Gongjiang.

  If I remember correctly, Ikemura-hoon will be killed by his wife soon.

   A few days ago, Jiang Xia actually saw Gongjiang Ichicun.

   At that time, a rich lady came to ask him to entrust him, and Gongjiang Ikemura also followed, looking like he was investigating the situation. It's just that at that time, Gongjiang Ikecun did not reveal her name, so Jiang Xia was not able to match her with the person in the spoiler for the first time - there are actually many differences between comics and real people, and Gongjiang Ikecun did not have the hair of a Saiyan. The unique characteristics of the class are difficult to identify.

   In Jiang Xia's impression, visiting the detective agency was the pre-existing act of Gongjiang Ikemura's murder. In the spoiler, Ikemura Gongjiang first invited the detective to his home, and then committed the murder under the detective's gaze.

   In other words, since she has been to the detective agency recently, she may soon hire a detective and start the murder... This murder should be completed before the election.

   Jiang Xia took over the task.

   Of course, you have to take it if you don’t. The assessment of the organization is not an ordinary test, and there is no option to refuse the test.

When    left the bar, Jiang Xia didn't take anything - Ikemura Xun's relevant information was not in his hands either, the gin was shown to him, and then he took it away.

  …

   For a period of time after that, Jiang Xia deliberately checked the itinerary of Ikecun Xun, but secretly put more energy on Ikecun Gongjiang.

   As long as he walks around the vicinity of Ichicun Gongjiang or near the scene before he commits the murder, he will be able to get the task. As for what to say when handing in a task...it's just fine to make it up according to the situation at that time.

   Jiang Xia has a good memory. He recalled what happened in the past few days, and found that Gongjiang Ikecun had accompanied her friend to the detective agency to investigate once. He didn't come back after that, probably because he didn't like Jiang Xia's "witness".

   Therefore, Jiang Xia hesitated for a moment and decided to go to Kogoro Mouri's detective agency to see the situation. Maybe Ikecun Gongjiang was attracted there by some force majeure.

   It happened to be around Yoko Kinoshita that I ordered last time, and it has not been handed over to Kogoro Mouri. Why don't you take this opportunity to visit.

  If there is no movement there, set up a surveillance camera near the Maori's house and the Ikemura's house to observe the situation.

  …

   Thinking so, the next day, Jiang Xia did not go to the detective agency as usual, but went to the video store to pick up the surrounding area.

   At the same time, the detective agency welcomed an uninvited customer-Heiji Hattori followed the address and looked for it all the way.

   Hattori Heiji is a high school detective in Osaka.

  The newspapers here often compare two related things, and as one of the hottest high school detectives, Hattori Heiji was unfortunately also compared. Someone made up a saying for him - Hattori in the west, Kudo in the east.

   During this time, Kudo Shinichi disappeared, and the detective on the east side was replaced by Jiang Xia.

   This doesn't sound very rhyme, and when Hattori Heiji struggled with this, he inevitably became interested in this change.

   He had always been dissatisfied with the fact that he was compared with Kudo Shinichi, and he had long wanted to come over and compete with Kudo Shinichi, but he had too much homework and couldn't make time.

Now, the detectives in the east have suddenly been replaced, and the timeline of "Kudou" and "Jiang Xia" has a subtle continuation. All kinds of conjectures popped up in Hattori Heiji's mind for a moment, and finally he couldn't hold back his curiosity and competitiveness. On his luggage, he came to Tokyo and started his duel journey.
