Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 293 is for you to soak

  In the restaurant, a group of people lined up to take a bath while eating dessert.

   After a while, Uncle Yifang came back steaming with a towel on his shoulders.

   Jiang Xia stared at him for a moment—on the stubby and powerful legs of the fake house, there was an equally fresh and warm shikigami.

  After the bathroom was vacant, other people went to take a bath one after another.

   After ten o'clock, Jiang Xia walked into the steam-filled bathroom. As soon as I entered the door, I stepped on a complete mass of murderous aura.

   He looked around subconsciously and saw that there was no one else, so he picked up the murderous aura nonchalantly and put it in his arms.

   Jiang Xia was not surprised by this result, at least when he saw the ghost on the leg of the fake house, he had already thought of the current development.

   In my impression, the successor who went to the wedding banquet before planned to kill "Uncle Yifang" while he was taking a bath. However, the fake house is not a powerless old man, but a master of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. He was suddenly stabbed in the back, and he subconsciously fought back.

After    one move, Ji room was stabbed in the chest by the kitchen knife in her own hand, and unfortunately suffered a bloodshed.

   The fake neiyifang was stunned for a while at the corpse, and realized that this situation could be regarded as self-defense, and he should not have to go to jail.

   But in the same way, once this matter is discovered, he is bound to go to the police station. And once he is gone, the son of Zhennei Yifang, the Brazilian guy, will have to stay in the house of Yifang alone tomorrow, otherwise he will not get the inheritance.

  Before this, they actually received two threatening letters from different people. That is, besides this dead step room, there is another person who will be against them. He couldn't leave the Brazilian guy to the police station.

  Therefore, the fake room in the inner room hesitated for a moment, then dragged the next room who came to deliver the head to the well in the courtyard, tied the person with a well rope, and threw the body into the well. He plans to wait until tomorrow morning to publish his will before revealing his identity as the "murderer" and make a record.

   Thinking of this, Jiang Xia decided to make the corpse appear in everyone's field of vision as soon as possible.

   At present, the hidden "Murderer No. 2" is relatively timid, and with a little manipulation, it is not difficult to get the murderous aura from her.

   After solving this matter tonight, I will be able to catch the early bus back to Tokyo the next day to slap the case that Mami Endo may bring up.

Although Jiang Xia has not yet thought of a case related to the "real person reasoning game", but this kind of activity is very easy to happen when you hear it. only ghost.

  …

   Jiang Xia let out his thoughts, then put away his murderous aura, and looked at the bathtub full of hot water next to him.

  Theoretically, he should take a shower first, and then soak in the barrel.

   But when he thinks that this tank of water has just soaked at least three uncles, he doesn't really want to go in, even though the water looks clear and clean...

  Jiang Xia Minato observed next to the wooden barrel for a moment, then turned his head slowly and looked at the foggy dog ​​floating beside him.

   then ignored the slightly blasted feathers of the other party and whispered, "Go take a dip and try the water temperature."

  I'm from the same island country... ghost, you shouldn't mind the custom of soaking in the same tank. The aunties just now also soaked in the same tank.

  In the absence of murderous aura, the influence of ghosts and real objects on each other is very limited.

   But in the end, you can still receive some feedback. For example, when ghosts pass through walls or pass through fixed objects, the resistance they receive will be slightly greater than when they float in the air. This is why mermaids can bathe happily in various liquids.

In the same way, ghosts can also sense the airflow or temperature, and can help measure the water temperature... Just thinking of this, Jiang Xia saw the mermaid next to him jumping into the water, holding her murderous aura that she had played for a long time as a swimming board, happy Swimming in the water.

   Jiang Xia: "..."

Next to   , the foggy dog ​​doesn't really like water.

Although the mermaid was rushing to live, but remembering what Jiang Xia said just now, it still did not dare to slack off work, but slowly fell down, flapped its wings and hovered on the water, then slowly stretched out a leg and touched it with its translucent toes. Get wet.

   As a more and more witty ghost, Wutiangu keenly found that the main point of the master's command just now was to "test the water temperature", not "to take a dip".

   So this should work...

Jiang Xia looked at the appearance of Wutiangou cautiously, not wanting to get wet, and at the appearance of the mermaid diving into the bucket and not wanting to come out, he sighed, and turned the task of measuring the water temperature to the mermaid, and let Wutiangou act casually. .

  The fog tengu flew out of the water with a whistle, returned to the air, and swayed its feet secretly.

   Jiang Xia pulled a small stool from the side and sat down. After a while, the mermaid told him that when the water temperature was getting colder, Jiang Xia took a shower with a shower with some hot water next to it, and let some steam rise from the top of his head, pretending that he had taken a serious bath just now.

   Soon, he returned to the dining room steaming like everyone else who had showered before.

   And when the host asked politely how he felt, he responded truthfully: "The water is a little cold."

On the way back just now, Jiang Xia built a puppet outside the side door in the nearby yard, and made the puppet appear as if half of its body was covered by the door frame, and it was sneaking into the courtyard—yes, it was Kudo Yusaku has been maintaining the appearance before.

  Hiromi heard Jiang Xia said that the water was cold, got up in the spirit of a host, and prepared to run to the bathroom to reheat.

   Jiang Xia brushed past her while wiping the water from her hair and entered the room.

   was about to sit down, when suddenly there was a frightened scream from Hiromi Hiroshi in the courtyard - she found that there was a "suspicious person" peeping beside the small door on the side.

  Because of the energy core accumulated before and the energy from the mermaid, the ghosts have been able to individually control the puppet to do some very simple actions.

   Hearing Hiroshi Hiroshi's exclamation, the puppet flashed to the side, was blocked by the door, and completely disappeared from Hiroshi's field of vision.

   Jiang Xia's thoughts moved slightly and disbanded the puppet.

  Then he turned around, ran along with the others, and found Hiromi Rinui, who was sitting down in the corridor, staring at the side door with a terrified face.

  In the original world line, a similar thing happened. At that time, the "suspicious person" who frightened Hiromi Rinuchi and led everyone out was the sneaky Kudo Yusaku.

   But now, for some reason, Yusaku Kudo is still sleeping in the warehouse.

   Therefore, Jiang Xia can only work part-time again, so that it can be logical...

  He followed the direction of Hiromi Rinui and looked at the empty side door.

   Then he quickly retracted his gaze and turned to look at the well not far away where people once died, wondering, "Why is the bucket strangled on it?"
