Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 242 The Philosophy of Anonymous Organizations (pseudo)

  Sawaki Fairy doesn't know where this thing came from.

  To this day, he couldn't tell whether it was a diver dressed up like this, or some mythical creature. He only felt that the kind and friendly eyes of the mermaid were very familiar, which made him think of a certain detective in an instant.

  ... If I remember correctly, Jiang Xia looked at him with similar eyes along the way.

Before   , Sawagi just thought that this was a trick used by detectives to paralyze him so that he could show his tricks.

   But now, he realized that this was not the case - whether it was Jiang Xia or this mermaid, they didn't look at him with the slightest falsification, it was "kindness" and "friendliness" from the heart.

   is just that emotion, not based on an equal relationship.

  Sawaki just realized with hindsight——that was not the eyes of a human looking at a human at all. In the eyes of the mermaid and Jiang Xia, he seems to be just a mussel that has been in the sand for several years. They like him, not himself, but the process of cutting him open and taking out the pearls from his body.

   After figuring out the difference, Sawagi was a little convinced that the mermaid in front of him was not a human being, but some kind of unknown creature.

   But what he couldn't figure out was that Jiang Xia would occasionally show the same attitude to himself.

  ...A famous detective who hates evil like hatred, doesn't want to let the criminal go unpunished for a second, and solves the case quickly?

   Those reporters and policemen are all blind.

  Why no one found out that Jiang Xia is actually such a person? !

  Sawaki Fairy felt the legs that had already lost consciousness, and then looked at the corpses of Xu Shengyi and Koyamauchi Nana, who were passing by silently like two melon eaters, and suddenly let out a sneer.

   He looked at the mermaid in a bubble, gritted his teeth and asked, "You and that detective are in a group, right? What the **** are you?"

  Sawaki Fairy didn't expect a fish that only regarded him as prey to answer his words, but before dying, if he didn't say something, he was really unwilling.

   However, the mermaid didn't know what to see through him, and he looked in a good mood. After a moment of silence, it actually started to make up: "It's a human being."

   "We're just a bunch of ordinary people everywhere."

   After saying that, under Sawagi's fair-handed gaze, the mermaid turned his eyes slightly, raised his hand and slid through the water, as if he was hugging a large mass of invisible things.

Then it elegantly pushed the pot with a voice with a strange mix and inexplicable rhythm: "You can think of us as a mirror - in front of good people, we are good people; in front of passers-by, we are passers-by; in front of you, we are passers-by; before……"

  The mermaid looked at the thing he was hugging, and showed a smile that was so faint that it was almost invisible, but it really existed:

   "We are your most similar kind - and of course, your most loyal accomplices until the last moment."

  …

   After a minute, Sawagi's fair oxygen ran out.

   Jiang Xia pulled him out of the car and mixed him with the other two corpses, turning him into the third corpse that sank in the underwater restaurant.

   Actually, the oxygen cylinder could last a while longer.

   Just after listening to the mermaid's words, Sawagi was obviously a little excited. He took a big mouthful of the last oxygen and questioned the mermaid. The merman who he wanted to kill was obviously not dead yet. How could the mermaid say that he was his "most loyal accomplice".

   Then the mermaid choked with anger and drowned unwillingly in the merman's unguilt-free answer of "don't you think, let us think".

  Murderous, after Sawagi realized that he could not escape fairly and rationally, he began to fall off. The ghosts that were on his legs also let go after his death.

   Jiang Xia gathered up everything he could and hugged it, then looked at Sawagi's fair body, and at the scales on his tail, and sighed.

  This vest is actually quite cool, but unfortunately if it appears too much in front of ordinary people, it spreads too much, and it shatters the world view of ordinary people.

  ...I can only show it off in front of someone like Sawagi Fairy who won't reveal secrets.

   Well, as well as those people whose worldview is not normal.

   Jiang Xia swam out of the gap with the murderous spirit and the ghost, then dismissed the puppet, handed the murderous spirit and the ghost to the mermaid ghost, and asked her to help bring it back.

   himself immediately returned to the main body.

  …

  This crystal restaurant built by Xu Shengyi, although the main part is in the sea, there are also many parts above the sea.

   At this time, a group of people successfully escaped to the outside of the restaurant, floated to the surface, and then climbed to the top of the building with mutual help along the slightly crooked stairs, temporarily escaping.

  Maolilan sat on the shore, beating his chest and spitting out a few streams of water, looking at the fluctuating sea with some doubts.

   Just now, she was holding Jiang Xia with one hand, and she had to pay attention to covering his mouth. In the middle, Mao Lilan thought she was choking.

   But now it seems...

  Mao Lilan felt the airway that was not uncomfortable, and was temporarily unable to determine whether he was choking or drinking. Just now, the water seemed to flow out with the breath, but there was no feeling of choking.

   She pondered for a moment in confusion, feeling that maybe she was too nervous and had an illusion - it should just be a few sips accidentally, choking water is not such a symptom.

   To her gratification, Jiang Xia, who was next to him, didn't seem to be choking, but just sat next to him and hung up quietly.

  Maolilan couldn't help being a little proud - not only did she swim out without injury, but she also brought one, which is awesome.

  …

   The people who came up together were all right, only Nishina's ability was too poor. Although someone took him, he still fainted.

   Several people hurriedly gave him first aid, and when Nishina spit out water and woke up, they suddenly felt that there was one person missing.

   Mumu looked around and was shocked: "Where's Mr. Sawagi?!"

   They looked around but found no one. A group of people thought about it carefully and found that when they were still in the underwater restaurant, ready to dive into the water, Sawagi Fairy also made a dive, but now it seems... he didn't seem to swim out.

   Did something happen on the way?

  Mouri Kogoro dived back into the sea, looked down, and found no one near the sea.

   He was determined to take a risk and dive back into the gap just now to find out if Sawagi Fairy was there, but when he looked down, there was a large circle of damaged windows under the submarine restaurant, all of which looked the same. When I came out just now, no one had the mind to look back, and just wanted to leave as soon as possible. Now I don't know where to get in.

   At this time, a ship came quickly towards this side.

   The explosion that happened just now was quite violent, and the Crystal Restaurant had already been blown halfway. There was such a big movement, and without them calling the police, there were already search and rescue helicopters and boats rushing here one after another.

   After a group of tired people explained the situation to the search and rescue personnel, they handed over the search and rescue to them, hoping to find someone smoothly.
