Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 1467 1467 [Uzo didn't come for me? 】

   Counting and counting, there are only a few detectives who can handle it. Jiang Xia is one of the most outstanding group. From this point of view, it would be weird if Jiang Xia and Wu Zuo had no intersection at all.

   Therefore, the conjecture of "Jiangxia=Uzuo" was temporarily put in a relatively low position by Shuichi Akai.

  Shuichi Akai: "..." However, these two people are both in the organization after all, and they are both in Tokyo. In a sense, if Wu Zuo has other schemes, it will be very difficult for Jiang Xia to disconnect from him... These things still need to be verified carefully.

  …

the other side.

   After finishing the phone call with FBI Ace, Okiya Subaru put down the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.

  —Compared with him, a small fish, Akai Shuichi is more likely to attract Uzo's attention.

  Since Mr. Akai is still in good health, it means that Uzo hasn't attacked them yet, or hasn't noticed their movements at all. This is really...

   Wonderful!

Okiya Subaru invisibly relaxed a lot, broke away from the fear of being almost smashed into a cake just now, and couldn't help but also started to eat melons: Since he didn't come for himself, then Uzo came to harm Jiang Xia ?

  ... Always staring at the high school detective, what is the purpose of this guy. Want to take on this modern Sherlock Holmes?

  In any case, the speculation given by Akai Shuichi made Okiya Subaru breathe a sigh of relief.

  His attention could not help but shift to the top of his head, wanting to see where the fourth floor was going.

  However, compared to curiosity and desire to eat melons, in the end, reason and the desire to survive have the absolute upper hand.

After tangling for a while, Okiya Subaru sat there without moving, but silently opened the group chat: "..." Fortunately, now that technology is advanced, and everyone in the crew is a good eater, even if he doesn't go, he can still get a job from someone else. Between the lines, watch the progress over there remotely.

  Speaking of which, this is thanks to the frontline reporter, Ms. Yoko.

  …

  The lounge on the fourth floor.

   "Actually, we have seen the surveillance before." The police recalled the previous picture and reminded, "It is mainly facing the door of the bathroom, and the tearing scene was not captured."

  Jiang Xia looked at his watch: "It's okay, you put it away first."

  The police officer nodded and pressed a few keys. The screen quickly replayed the video of the deceased at the bathroom door on the fourth floor before he fell.

  The situation in the screen is exactly as Hideki Sugimoto said: he spilled his drink, went into the bathroom, and left his luggage outside.

   Not long after, Mr. Gutian, the deceased, also appeared on the screen. Of course, he was still alive then.

  The deceased passed by the door of the bathroom and found an unattended suitcase and the backpack on it. He couldn't help but take a second look, as if hesitating.

  At this moment, the cell phone in the backpack suddenly rang.

  The deceased was startled, walked away a few steps, then stopped again, and looked around thoughtfully.

   Until the bell rang, no one came to take care of the pile of luggage—its owner didn't seem to be nearby.

   Soon, the deceased picked up the bag, dragged the suitcase, and left as if nothing had happened.

  …

   "Compared to looking for the owner, the way he looked around just now seemed a little guilty." Mumu Police Department touched his fat chin and analyzed the scene, "Looks like a habitual thief."

  In the monitoring, the deceased was unaware of the comments from outside the screen.

  With his luggage, he quickly walked to the edge of the surveillance screen, then turned his back to this side, lowered his head and fiddled with the backpack he picked up.

   After a few seconds, Sugimoto Hideki came out of the bathroom.

  He rushed towards the deceased, and the two quickly had an argument, pushing and shoving to a place out of the surveillance screen.

   "It is indeed the same as what Mr. Sugimoto said." Mumu Police Department looked at Jiang Xia suspiciously, "Brother Jiang Xia, what's the problem?"

Hui Yuanai glanced helplessly at the group of policemen, even she could tell something was wrong with the surveillance system: "The owner locked the target too fast - when people leave the bathroom, they should first look at the place where they put their luggage. If you find that your luggage is gone, the next step is to look around in panic, and finally to lock on to the target and rush over, but..."

   As he spoke, Hui Yuanai's voice gradually dropped.

  —She is used to staying at home, unlike Conan who runs outside every day, so she has relatively little experience in "pretending to be a child".

   Halfway through speaking, she suddenly realized that this was not something a first-grade elementary school student should say.

  Thinking of this, Hui Yuanai sneaked a guilty look around.

   Then it was discovered that the police officers in the first search section were actually quite calm: it seems that the children near Jiangxia should be taught to look like this.

   But next to her, the people at the airport didn't look so indifferent, they all looked at her in surprise.

   "..."

   Huiyuan Ai thought of the reporters who might be guarding outside, as well as her shady identity, and her heart skipped a beat—I couldn’t expose myself.

  She caught a glimpse of Conan next to her from the corner of her eye, and she suddenly had inspiration, and she showed a sweet childish smile to the adults in the room: "It really is the same as Brother Jiang Xia guessed before!"

  Conan: "..." Haibara, when he sees him pretending to be a child, he usually looks at him with contempt. Now that it's her herself, she pretends to be so proficient...

  Jiang Xia seems to be used to smoothing things over for fake kids.

He nodded, and continued with Hui Yuan Ai's unfinished words: "But in the surveillance, Mr. Sugimoto didn't hesitate at all. As soon as he went out, he rushed in the direction of the deceased. He seemed to have expected that the luggage would be taken by someone." Go, count the time and rush out to intercept."

Hideki Sugimoto was in a cold sweat. He forced a smile and said, "But you see, my suitcase is so big, it's very conspicuous. When I went out, I happened to be facing the direction where the deceased left, so when I looked up, I saw him carrying a suitcase. My suitcase — I didn't anticipate this, I just reacted more quickly than the average person."

   Miwako Sato was skeptical, and always felt that his movements became smoother and smoother the more he saw them in the surveillance, which could not be achieved by "quick response".

  But based on this alone, it is indeed far-fetched to say that Hideki Sugimoto conspired to murder someone.

  She turned her head to look at Jiang Xia.

   Fortunately, detectives always have one set of reasoning after another, and they are never at a loss for words.

  Jiang Xia also inherited this advantage of being a detective, and she didn’t hold on to it when she was refuted, but continued to talk about other things:

   "And the phone in the bag. It should be left there specially for you. You prepared two phones in advance, one stuffed in the bag and the other on the body.

  "When hiding in the bathroom and seeing the deceased passing by, you use your mobile phone to make a call to the mobile phone in your bag and ring to attract his attention.

   "This is euphemistically telling the deceased that the owner of the luggage is not nearby. If you want to steal the bag, this is an excellent opportunity."
