Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 153 Worldview Fragmentation Scene

   Jiangxia recalled the location of Hattori Heiji's room.

   Then he silently released the shikigami, letting the shikigami form puppets in the woods outside the hotel.

   This time, Jiang Xia chose Xiaobai's appearance.

  The hair and clothes of the puppet can be adjusted within a certain limit according to the number of shikigami you have.

   The puppet formed by Xiaobai is a little boy, but the gender of the child is not as obvious as that of an adult. Jiang Xia stretched the puppet's hair to the limit, pretending to be a black long and straight little girl, then he tried to widen his pants, pretending it was a black skirt.

   Then he drove the puppet and walked to the edge of the woods——from Hattori Heiji's room, he could just see this place.

  The others were gathered in the hall at this time, only Hattori Heiji was self-isolating doing homework in the room, and only the detective could see all the following operations.

  …

   Hattori Heiji was doing the math when he suddenly heard a rustling of leaves from outside the house. It was not very obvious, but compared to the silence just now, it seemed a bit abrupt.

   Hattori Heiji looked up at the window and found a sneaky little girl in the woods.

   The little girl turned her back to him and was looking up at a high branch, and her things seemed to be hanging on it accidentally.

   Hattori Heiji intends to wash his hands from the golden pot of the detective world, but his thinking and observation skills cannot be lost for a while. He saw the situation clearly, and frowned suspiciously - how could such a small child suddenly appear in the woods? The nearest villa from here is about an hour's walk away...

  The girl is not tall enough, but she wants to get something on the branch, jumping up and down, making people anxious.

   Hattori Heiji temporarily suppressed his doubts and decided to go down to help, and by the way, ask why this child is here.

   However, he just pulled out the stool, and before standing up, he suddenly stared outside, his eyes widened in shock.

  ——In the woods, the "little girl" sighed suddenly after several unsuccessful attempts. Immediately after, her figure was quickly raised and elongated... into an adult woman dressed in black.

  The woman stood on tiptoe and easily picked off the objects hanging on the tree.

   After that, she quickly shrank again, changed back to the shape of a child just now, and ran into the woods with the things on the tree.

   Hattori Heiji was shocked by the table and turned into a stone sculpture: "?!!!"

  ...what did he just see? ! ! !

   For a moment, Hattori Heiji almost heard a "click" sound.

  ...that's his shaky worldview.

  …

   Jiang Xia ran out of Hattori Heiji's field of vision, removed the puppet, returned his consciousness to his body, and opened his eyes in the living room.

   This time, this simple and rude "forced reorganization of the world view", although there are some flaws, such as the change of clothes is not very scientific... But at this time, Hattori Heiji must not have the energy to care about such details.

   Even if you notice it, people can get bigger and smaller, so why can’t clothes? After all, no matter how you think about it, "clothes that can expand and contract with body shape" are definitely easier to make than "people who can expand and contract freely".

   As I was thinking, there was a sudden bang from the second floor.

   Hattori Heiji slammed open the door of the room, dashed down in two steps in three steps, and rushed out the door.

  …

   Just now, after nearly a minute, Hattori Heiji finally thawed from the petrified state.

After   's mind resumed operation, his first reaction was to go to the scene to see.

   Hattori Heiji recognized the direction and went straight to the place where the "little girl" was just now. That tree was very characteristic.

When he got closer, he found with a complicated expression that the scene he just saw was not an illusion - there were a few small twigs that were crushed on the tree. Judging from the broken marks, it was obvious that they had just broken, indicating that it was indeed hanging on it just now. over something. In addition, some dead leaves on the ground were uneven, as if they had just been stepped on.

   Hattori Heiji fell silent at these real traces.

  ... In this world, is there really someone who can drastically change their body shape?

   Hattori Heiji was completely lost.

   Hesitating for a moment, he originally wanted to follow the woman...or where the girl disappeared. But before he set off, a certain thought that had popped up countless times and was suppressed every time, probed into Hattori Heiji's mind again.

... If there really is a magical technology that makes humans bigger and smaller, then he doesn't have to go to the mountains to find it. In the hotel, there is a suspicious person living in the hotel - yes, the one who is smart and calm many times. Not like Conan as a child.

   Once the idea arises, it can no longer be suppressed.

Although Hattori Heiji thought of Conan stepping on him in the middle of the night, he felt that Conan was also a bit like a real child, but compared to this subtle behavior, almost everything else confirmed a terrible point - Kudo Shinichi can "disappear" "It's so thorough, not because he is good at hiding, but because he has become a child!

  …

   In the hall dozens of meters away, Conan suddenly felt cold behind his back.

   He turned his head sharply, just in time to see Jiang Xia distracted by holding his chin, his eyes stopped at the murderer in the corner.

  Conan: "..." Jiang Xia was sitting idle for too long, and couldn't help but want to hit someone?

Although he can understand Jiang Xia's pressure... But judging from Hu Shiyan's current state, if he continues to fight, the murderer will be scared crazy if he doesn't die... Conan thought, it seems that his premonition of crisis is quite accurate. It must be blocked at this time.

   So Conan dragged Mao Lilan and ran to Jiang Xia's side, calmly separating Jiang Xia's gaze towards the murderer.

  Conan, who was concentrating on being the partition, didn't realize that behind him, Hattori Heiji walked in from the door, and cast a gaze mixed with various complex meanings at his back.

  …

   On the way back, Hattori Heiji got into the same car with them and squeezed into the last row of the car.

   Originally, in this row, Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan sat on one side, with Conan inserted between them.

   Now, as soon as Hattori Heiji came up, Conan was surprised to find that Hattori Heiji was actually on the side of Jiang Xia, and he sat next to Jiang Xia.

  Conan's observation skills are very strong. Yesterday, when Hattori Heiji tried to slip away, but was caught by Jiang Xia on the spot, Conan witnessed the scene.

   This morning, after Jiang Xia solved the case, Conan even found that Hattori Heiji became a little empty when he saw Jiang Xia, but now... what is the situation.

   This abnormal behavior made Conan a little puzzled.

   He quietly leaned towards Jiang Xia and Hattori Heiji, trying to eavesdrop on the next conversation.

  Maolilan was also suddenly alert. She always felt that Hattori Heiji was not very friendly to Jiang Xia, but now, Hattori Heiji took the initiative to approach Jiang Xia... In short, it was very suspicious.

  Although what happened before made Mao Lilan feel that Hattori Heiji is not a bad person, but in her opinion, Hattori Heiji sometimes speaks too directly, and now he runs next to Jiang Xia... Maybe some hurtful words will come out.

  Maolilan is like a formidable enemy.
