Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 1909 1909 [Cheating is prohibited] Asking for a monthly ticket ()

   Inozuka Saburo instinctively looked over.

   With a click, his numb expression as if he was standing on the guillotine was recorded in the photo album.

   "That's right, but the expression is too stiff." The man in black looked down at the photo, "You still have to smile more at ordinary times. Only by loving your work can you do a good job—I am very optimistic about you, and work hard."

   After speaking, he waved casually at Saburo Inozuka, and then left like a tourist taking pictures everywhere.

   Saburo Inozuka was dazed in place for a long time, and suddenly he shuddered violently: "..." Watch me?

  ...What kind of death did this guy arrange for me? !

   "Others are decapitated, but I will be decapitated." Saburo Inozuka was about to overflow with anxiety, "No, no, no, his attitude is still very kind. In short, one cannot give up hope..."

  At this time, someone passed by chatting on the second floor. Taking advantage of the popularity below, Inozuka Saburo observed for a while, and rushed down the stairs.

  …

the other side.

   Not long after, Vodka's phone vibrated and received another email.

   "..." Vodka glanced at the sender with a numb face, "Brother, he sent me another threatening email."

   While talking, he still clicked on it: No matter how annoying Uzo is, he has to read carefully what he posts. Otherwise, in case there are some survival tips hidden in it, and I don't look at it and cause death, that guy has a reason to throw the blame—this little psychological trick will never work on me!

  However, when I clicked on it this time, Vodka froze for a moment.

  Gin glanced over here, realizing that this time the photo might be different from the past: "What?"

  Vodka: "...this man is still alive!"

  Gin looked at his screen: Not to mention, in such a blink of an eye, he actually had the illusion that the person in the photo was Vodka.

   It's just that the following line of words is a bit of an eyesore, and it actually says "a photo of Saburo Inozuka and Kurosawa".

  Gin: "..." What is this guy implying?

  In addition, he remembered that not counting Uzo as a substitute, among the guards guarding Hashimoto Maya, there was another person whose surname was Kurosawa. That person should be Saburo Inozuka's original partner, so why wasn't Uzo photographed this time?

  …

  No matter how flustered Uozuka Saburo in Tokyo was, how much he guessed, there was a Uozuka Saburo in faraway Hokkaido who was even more flustered than him.

  By taking advantage of the fact that there were still people in the corridor, Inozuka came to the hotel lobby at such a speed that no one could stop him—a few guests and waiters were coming and going here. According to experience, in this kind of place that can be witnessed by many people at the same time, as long as you are careful not to get poisoned, the death rate is actually not that high.

  —He never thought that he, an ordinary peripheral member, would be lucky... No, he would be so unlucky to meet "that thing" in eight lifetimes.

   This is no different from death coming to your door. Although that adult seems approachable, and for some reason, the other party seems to be visiting him as a simple scenic spot, and has no intention of murdering him, a small person...but just that moment of contact has already made Saburo Inozuka terrified Make up for one hundred ways to die.

  Although he was already prepared to die when he was forced to take on this job, but when the real thing came to an end, Inozuka Saburo's desire to survive was still burning.

  —He remembered that there was surveillance in the hotel lobby. So I ran over and asked the front desk to confirm that the monitoring would not cut off the power, and the hotel was also equipped with a temporary generator.

  After hearing the news, Saburo Inozuka breathed a sigh of relief. Under the suspicious gaze of everyone, he moved a stool and sat in the center of the surveillance.

   And he also carefully adjusted the orientation of the chair, so as not to let someone shoot him with a crossbow arrow or a gun from a distance that he couldn't see.

"'That thing', no, 'that lord' likes tricky cases, rather than simple and rough face-to-face killings." Saburo Inozuka looked around suspiciously, "This angle can't attack from a distance, but Under this kind of monitoring, anyone who wants to kill me at close range will definitely leave an image that can reveal his identity. As long as I don’t eat or drink, don’t rub my eyes or touch my mouth with hands that have touched other places, and avoid being poisoned, I may I can survive tonight!—After all, that lord doesn’t seem to want to kill me, I just need to be careful not to be accidentally injured by him.”

   After quickly setting up his own life-saving camp, Saburo Inozuka accidentally glanced at the phone and found that there was an extra message on the phone.

  I picked it up and saw that it was sent by Maya Hashimoto: It may be that he took too long to change the card, and the two companions were a little strange, so I sent him a message to ask.

   Saburo Inozuka: "..." Oh yes, I almost forgot, he still has two accomplices.

  ...So do you want to tell those two people what happened to you just now?

  But after all, it's about that guy... Cough, it's about that lord, if too many things about him are revealed, it will cause dissatisfaction, right? And to be honest, in this hotel where other than the police are ordinary people, the people who can pose the most threat to him are Hashimoto Maya and Kurosawa Kazuma.

   Saburo Inozuka racked his brains for a while.

   Then I made a decision: to be a human being, to stay on the front line, so that I can live longer. Forget it as a tactful reminder, so that if Hashimoto Maya and Kurosawa Kazuma survive, they will not anger his innocent colleague in the future.

  Thinking of this, Saburo Inozuka reluctantly took out his phone, thinking about what to say.

  …

  Third floor.

  When Saburo Inozuka was changing the card, Hashimoto Maya and Kurosawa and Ma went to the vending machine at the end of the corridor together to buy some drinks and bentos.

   After carefully checking the packaging, and confirming that there were no suspicious marks such as injection holes on it, the two walked back with the bento.

  Hashimoto Maya sighed as he walked: "I don't know when this case will end."

  The troupe saw that no one could be killed. He actually hoped that the case would drag on a little longer. Otherwise, when Wu Zuo made his move, they would be the ones who were unlucky.

When it came to solving the case, Heize and Ma thought of something and laughed: "Jiang Xia is not as powerful as in the legend. In these serial murder cases, two or three people must die before he can successfully solve it. He can only be trapped by the lack of clues and watch people die-he must be so sad that he can't sleep now, tsk, poor detective."

  Hashimoto Maya couldn't help but glanced at him: "Jiang Xia offended you today?" Why did he say this suddenly.

   "He always brings the topic to us. Although it is good intentions in his eyes, but... alas." Kuisawa and Ma are indeed slightly dissatisfied with the morning, but the most important thing is—

He tossed the video camera away, feeling the joy of crushing a strong man of flesh and blood with a mechanical ascension: "Solving a case still depends on technology. When I had nothing to do to sort out the video today, I already understood the technique in the first case—go, go back." I'll show you the room."
