Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 383 The Ranking of Gin Wine's Killing (Combined Chapter)

   Kogoro Mori is no exception. He also feels that people who say "people who live here are pigs!" lack a social beating.

   He turned his head angrily and stared at Boss Izumo at the next table.

   But looking at it, Mouri Kogoro gradually became confused.

  —He always felt that this cranky boss was very familiar.

   After frowning for a moment, he scratched the back of his head, and interjected in the gap when Boss Izumo was scolding Kagoshi Rise: "Have we met before?"

"Ok?"

   Boss Izumo turned his head and looked at Mouri Kogoro carefully, but he was not impressed.

   His gaze stopped on Jiang Xia's face next to him, and then he frowned in disgust—there was actually a well-known detective in the car. As a drug dealer, Boss Izumo has a natural dislike for this kind of party that symbolizes justice.

   He snorted coldly without saying a word and looked away.

  The atmosphere in the car was a little awkward.

   Kagoshi looked left and right, and immediately, like a real Miyoshi employee, thoughtfully rounded up the field.

   He explained to Kogoro Mouri who asked the question just now:

   "You may have seen our boss on TV or in the newspaper.

"A few days ago, our jewelry store was robbed by wanted criminals. At that time, all the employees in the store were shivering with fright. Only the boss Izumo stepped forward and fought the gangsters heroically. Many reporters have come to interview this story. thing."

   "Oh!" Maori Kogoro slammed his fist into the palm of his hand, and suddenly realized, "I remembered, I really saw it on the news."

   At the same time, he also remembered some tabloid analysis of the matter.

  —Some people say that when the wanted criminal who was repelled by the boss Izumo left, he left a strange sentence, "This is not the same as what was promised."

   In addition, he was obviously an experienced wanted criminal, but was scared off by an unarmed boss, which itself seemed very unnatural.

   Therefore, some critics suspect that the robbery was actually directed and acted by the boss of Izumo, in order to gain popularity during the mayoral election.

   Jiang Xia didn't think so.

   After all, as a person who knows spoilers by heart, he remembers that this robbery was actually Kagoshi who had read the manuscript of the novel—or rather, it was part of Kudo Yusaku’s murder plan.

  The wanted criminal who went to the jewelry store to rob was actually Anji Asama, a former accomplice of Kagoshi Rizō.

   Kagoshi deceived Anji Asama by saying that Boss Izumo was willing to cooperate with them, robbing jewelry and defrauding insurance money.

   Anji Asama, who knew nothing about it, came to the store and planned to act. However, the unknowing boss Izumo didn't cooperate with his script at all, instead he reprimanded and rang the alarm bell. Anji Asama was stunned on the spot and left in a hurry.

After   , Kagoshi found Anji Asama again, and apologetically gave him the clothes for disguise and the ticket for the car, telling him that the boss had backed out and told him to leave as soon as possible. At the same time, Kayuri threatened Boss Izumo with drug trafficking to come to the car, gathering the protagonist of tonight's reasoning story.

   Today, everything is going according to plan...with one exception.

   Kagoshi thought about it, and looked at Jiang Xia next to him with a vague gaze.

  ...I don't know if it's an illusion, he always feels that tonight, this famous high school detective has seen him several times.

   This made Kayuri unavoidably apprehensive, and his heart beat faster with the frequency of Jiang Xia's glances... But thinking about his idol's novel manuscript, Kayuri felt that he should not stop the plan.

  —If it was his own plan, then he may indeed lack confidence and stop depending on the situation.

   But now, this is a case written by Yusaku Kudo, he is not fighting alone.

   Jiang Xia saw that the murderous aura on Kayue Rize changed back and forth, and finally maintained a relatively strong level.

   He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, moved his gaze away from Kaegerizawa, and stopped looking at him.

  ...The psychological quality of the criminals now is too worrying, just after a few glances, the murderous aura fluctuates like this... Fortunately, the people this time have more backbone.

  Well, we have to pay attention to this aspect in the future, and try to avoid all kinds of contact with the prisoners before the crime, including eye contact, so as not to hurt their fragile hearts.

   Bowing his head, Jiang Xia's field of vision did not see the murderous Kayue Rizi, but instead there was a contemplative Conan.

  Conan was attracted by a strong sense of sight at this time, and temporarily forgot the gin at the door.

   Aware of Jiang Xia's gaze, he hesitated for a moment, turned to Jiang Xia, and asked in a low voice, "Has a similar strange robbery happened before? ... It should have been many years ago, when we were young."

   Jiang Xia glanced at him and knew that it was because Kudo Shin had seen the lost manuscript when he was a child. Now Kudo-san probably remembered a little, but not completely.

Jiang Xia Tongzhi seldom ran to Kudo's house when he was a child. Every time he was caught by Yukiko Kudo and hugged him, and then after a short while, he took the opportunity to slip away. It is impossible to stay there and read other people's unpublished novels. manuscript.

   So he shouldn't have the same sense of sight as Conan.

   Jiang Xia thought for a while, then shook his head: "No impression."

   "...Really." Conan trusts Jiang Xia's memory, but at the same time, he also trusts his own memory.

  —He must have seen something like "a well-known robber rushing away without taking anything" somewhere, but he just can't remember it.

In the face of this conflict, Conan had to temporarily conclude that Jiang Xia was not interested in being a detective and reasoning when he was a child, and he didn't like to read the news. He never paid attention to related cases, so he didn't remember it... Then again, why did Jiang Xia suddenly want to be detective?

  Conan briefly thought about this question, but did not come to a conclusion.

   So he quickly turned back to thinking about the strange robbery.

   However, until after eating dessert, eating the melon in the dining car, and following the Maori father and daughter back to the box, he couldn't remember where he had seen a similar scene.

  …

  This train departs in the evening, and after dinner, the night is already deep.

  Conan entered the box and asked Jiang Xia the question he had just asked. Kogoro Mouri was a criminal before, so he should pay attention to relevant news.

   However, Kogoro Mori also shook his head, saying with certainty that he had never heard of a similar robbery.

  Conan had to sigh and put this sense of sight aside for the time being.

   As soon as his thoughts were freed, he suddenly felt that he had forgotten something.

  …By the way, gin is also in the car!

  Conan jumped up from the sleeper, dropped "I'm going to the bathroom", and rushed out of the room.

   It is rare to encounter gin in the car. On this kind of high-speed train, even gin should not dare to jump off the train, so this may be a good opportunity to get in touch—if you can figure out where gin’s box is, and then while he falls asleep at night, think about Way to steal the APTX4869...

  Conan routinely developed a series of reverie about reaching the peak of his life.

   When it came to "finding the box for gin", Conan's first reaction was, relying on his being a child, he pretended to be wrong and opened the suspicious box doors one by one. If the door is locked, knock on the door to find out who is inside.

   But soon, remembering what happened in the dining car just now, Conan's pace became slower and slower, and finally stopped in the middle of the corridor.

  …No, no.

  Gin is not the kind of honest criminal suspect, and there is no policeman in the car who can check him.

If you push the door and see Gin sitting on the bedside wiping guns, or fiddling with bombs... Even if the witness is a child with unconvincing testimony, he will definitely be cold-blooded in black for the first time. People dragged into the house and muttered.

   In addition, Conan thought that even if he was lucky and didn't hit the scene where Gin was fiddling with weapons, after such an encounter, he would definitely enter Gin's field of vision.

   Whether it is based on Conan's own observations or what he heard from Haibara Ai, Gin is a very suspicious person.

  Conan remembered the various violations he had shown in front of the gin in the dining car before, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt heavy inside.

  —After seeing each other in the dining car just now, Gin must have had an impression of him.

   If he took the initiative to appear in front of Jin Jiu at this time, even if Jin Jiu didn’t doubt him as a primary school student, he would definitely doubt the adults who were with him—such as the Maori father and daughter, such as Jiang Xia.

   Especially Jiangxia.

   During the meal just now, Jin Jiu didn't observe Jiang Xia much. As a criminal, he should have an instinctive hostility and fear of famous detectives.

   At this time, if a child who is familiar with Jiang Xia suddenly comes to the door...

   Conan's mind couldn't help but see the image of Gin sneering and knocking sap, as well as Gin's gun, and the terrible explosions that happened in the past.

   His face turned pale, and he gradually realized that the alternative secret room of "high-speed train" was indeed a good way to keep Gin from leaving. But at the same time, it will also prevent them from leaving in time, and it is very convenient for the vigilant gin to wait for the opportunity to kill their mouths.

   One wrong step, and there may be four more corpses in the car—he, Xiaolan, Maori Kogoro, all neat and tidy, plus a Jiang Xia.

  ...So now, Conan finds that instead of going to find gin, he has to hide as much as possible and act like a real child without acting out of line.

   In addition, it is necessary to prevent Jiang Xia from discovering abnormalities and running to investigate the gin... Fortunately, Jiang Xia usually appears in newspapers and various reasoning programs. He is more or less a celebrity, and he was often stared at when he went out. Compared with the strange and burning gazes of some of them, Gin Jiu's few glances can be regarded as subtle, and it should not make Jiang Xia too vigilant.

   There shouldn't be a big problem on Jiangxia's side. Conan briefly thought about it, and then his thinking turned back to the showdown between himself and the black organization.

   In short, the black-clothed organization must be investigated, but it cannot be rushed, otherwise it will only pay a heavy price.

   And speaking of it, Conan always feels that there seems to be a wonderful fate between himself and Gin.

- It hasn't been long since he became small, but he has already met Jinjiu three or four times, and he has met other members of the black-clothed organization not too often. Even Dr. A Li's house actually lived in one... Since In this way, there may be better opportunities in the future.

  Thinking of this, Conan struggled to hold back the thought of "knocking on the door one by one until the gin is knocked out".

   However, it is rare to encounter gin, and if he does nothing, he cannot be reconciled...

  Thinking about it, Conan put his hand into his pocket, held a chewing gum and a bug, trying to find the right moment, instead of showing up in person, just trying to stick the bug to the luggage of gin or vodka.

   But soon, Conan withdrew his hand again.

  —In the case that Jinjiu has noticed Jiang Xia, as long as he finds a bug around him, he will undoubtedly think that Jiang Xia is investigating him.

The black-clothed organization kills them, but they don't pay attention to the evidence. At that time, the result is probably a four-person team. Although three of the four of them are very good at fighting, Jin Jiu has a hot weapon in his hand, and in such a narrow place in the car, The advantage is too great.

  Conan finally sighed and stopped trying some high-risk behavior. Only silently hid a bug in the bathroom.

   — Some people have the habit of talking on the phone in the bathroom, what if vodka or gin also? That way I can hear some movement...

   means that after taking a little action, Conan finally felt a little relieved and went back with Maurilan who came out to find him.

   After the two left, they were in an vacant box.

   Jiang Xia, who was driving the little white puppet, looked through the crack of the door and looked at the box door closed behind Mao Lilan and Conan, and silently closed the crack in front of him, and put away the anesthetic needle in his hand again.

  Gin seems to be paying extra attention to observation today. Of course, at such a time, Conan cannot be made to take some deadly actions.

Considering Kudo's unquenchable adventurous nature, Jiang Xia originally wanted to use Anonymous to provide him with a little help - Anonymous used to appear on occasions related to the organization, but now suddenly appeared, in Conan's opinion , certainly not unexpected.

   And gin and vodka had no habit of running around, and they were both still in the box at this time. So with a little care, the organization won't notice the presence of anonymous members.

   In short, everything is ready, just grab Conan and come over for the needle.

   But unexpectedly, Conan seems to know the situation better than before.

  ... If we go on like this, maybe you can bring a few less anesthesia needles when you go out in the future.

   He waited for a while with an anesthetic needle nearby, and found that Conan did not take any more high-risk actions, Jiang Xia put the anesthetic needle and dispersed the puppets.

   He opened his eyes in his box, looked at his watch, and let out a few ghosts.

   One went to the dining car, and the other went to stare at Anji Asama, the robber leader who was tricked into getting into the car.

  The rest go to the side of the gin to kill.

  …

   It was after four in the morning.

   Boss Izumo came from the dining car to the social compartment, ready to trade with the anonymous person who caught him.

  To avoid exposure, he drove back all the people who were with him.

  Kayori therefore went back to his room early.

After    entered his box, he counted the time and hid a ball of fishing line when the train was about to pass through a tunnel.

   Then he left the box on the second floor where he was, came to the box downstairs, and knocked lightly on the door.
