Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 500 The hidden mastermind asks for a monthly ticket ()

After    locked the suspect, Conan cleared his mind and remembered one thing:

   "No wonder I always feel that something is wrong - it's the skin color!

   "The administrator stays on the mountain all year round and is exposed to the sun, so his skin should be as dark as the college student, but the administrator we met didn't have much sunburn on his skin.

"Before the rest station was dimly lit, and with his white beard and hair as a foil, his unusual complexion was very inconspicuous. I thought it was because I had been looking at Brother Amuro for a long time, but suddenly I felt pale when I looked at others... so It seems that the administrator is probably not a real staff member, but a fake."

   Amuro Toru: "...?"

  Although this child is telling the truth, but listening to it, his fist becomes hard...

   He clicked his fingers. Decided not to care about children.

   At the same time, I thought to myself: In addition to the administrator responsible for preparing dinner and tea, other people actually have the opportunity to throw sleeping pills into Jiang Xia's drinking water - such as this strange child sitting next to Jiang Xia during dinner...

   And there is another question here, if it was the medicine that the administrator put, why didn't he just put the medicine in the tea, put everyone down, and then easily kill the client?

   Looking at it this way, the suspicion of the administrator is a little less, and the suspicion of others has increased - um, yes, such as this strange child next to him.

   Amuro Toru thought of another little boy he had met.

   The child who loves scarves seems to like using narcotics very much. In this case, wouldn't it be very reasonable to have a child who likes to litter sleeping pills.

   Amuro Toru briefly conspiracy theory.

  Then temporarily put aside this question of private goods.

Aside from prejudice, he thought rationally that the attacker only targeted Jiang Xia, probably because he didn't want to reveal his identity immediately - if he drugged everyone, then unless he killed all the people present, he would be responsible for drinking water the next day. of administrators immediately aroused suspicion. But if you only deal with Jiang Xia, if the attack just now was successful, then Jiang Xia died. Before the autopsy, no one knew that he had drunk sleeping pills, and the administrator's identity as a convenient drug was not easy to immediately arouse suspicion. His actions were much more relaxed.

   And in another matter, the administrator is indeed more suspect than Conan:

"If the administrator is a fake, the motive of the male college student's attack would make sense - that student often came to climb the mountain, and probably knew the real administrator, so the fake administrator received a call from the student to ask about the weather. After the phone call, I realized that this might expose my identity, so I started in advance..."

   In short, whether the fake administrator is Silver Fox, or the "housebreaker, murder and robber" played on the radio, his problems seem to be not small.

  Fortunately, in the case of an attempted assassination, no identity disclosure, and other tourists around, the silver fox and the robber should not act rashly.

  Amuro looked out into the dark forest outside the cave.

   Just now they came here following Huokura Etsuko's voice all the way, and they didn't know the direction very well. Now they rush out in the dark, it's easy to get lost. Not to mention there are women and children who need to be looked after.

——Tokura Etsuko doesn't seem to be able to act right away. With her back on her back, in case the silver fox or the burglary murderer is not actually at the rest stop, but wandering in the mountains, it is easy for them to be raided because they can't make a move , suffered an accident.

  If everything is normal in Jiangxia, the problem of insufficient manpower can be solved easily.

   But Jiang Xia is now being drugged by an unknown man behind the scenes. Although the sleeping pills will not make people unable to move like anesthesia, they will inevitably be in a trance during the drug effect, and the movements will be slower than usual. Going out like this is really dangerous.

   "Wait here first." Amuro glanced at his watch, "It will be dawn in less than half an hour, and then find a way back."

   This might save time rather than going straight out.

   Jiang Xia nodded.

  Conan also has no problem with this.

   Hukura Etsuko hugged Jiang Xia and blew the mountain wind for a while, and the fear triggered by the dark rest station gradually disappeared.

   There are no signals, no novels, and little progress in reasoning.

Conan looked at Etsuko Torokura boredly, remembering that this was a writer who was very high on his list of appreciation, and took the initiative to say: "No wonder you like to use the 'narrow secret room that is difficult to turn over' when you describe some scary scenes. The bridge section, it turns out that you are afraid of yourself."

  Amuro also read Torokura Etsuko's novels.

   Hearing this sentence, he looked at Conan: "Ms. Hucang's novels contain a lot of Chinese characters, and most of them are not phonetic, can you understand?"

  “…”

  Conan smiled awkwardly, and reflexively pulled a shield: "My Chinese grades are very good, and when I don't understand it, I can ask Brother Jiang Xia to read it to me, hahaha."

   "Oh." Amuro thoughtful, "Jiang Xia is so idle?"

  Conan froze slightly.

   I almost forgot, this seems to be the boss of the office where Jiang Xia is working. It doesn't seem very good to say this in person...

   So he hurriedly patched again: "Most of the time, I'm looking for Sister Xiaolan..."

   Toru Amuro nodded and didn't ask this question any further.

After    discovered Conan's suspiciousness, he actually asked his subordinates to check this strange child.

   Then he found that Tokyo did not have the household registration of "Edogawa Conan" at all, and he and his parents did not find this person.

  At present, the network has not been fully connected in various places. The situation in other prefectures and counties needs to be investigated slowly.

   If you find out that there is no Edogawa family anywhere else, then the elementary school student in front of you is a black family with unknown origins...

   In addition, according to a survey in Tokyo, the person who claimed to be Conan's parents seems to be abroad at present, and his name and identity are unknown.

  The Mouri family who adopted Conan are really good. One of the couple is a detective, the other is a lawyer, and their daughter is a top student with good character. There is no problem.

   Dr. A Li, who first came into contact with Conan, is also a scholar with a clear life experience.

   Although from these perspectives, even if there is a problem with Conan, it does not seem to be a big problem, but about his origin, it is still a huge mystery and needs to be investigated.

  Toru Amuro even suspected that if he continued the investigation, he might not only find the problem with Conan, but also find other abnormal children - such as the child with a scarf who Pengci had plotted against him.

  Thinking in the direction of more conspiracy theories, in the dark part of society, there may be a dark organization that gathers talented children for some unspeakable purpose...

   He frowned and looked at Conan subconsciously.
