Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 576 The target is the boss's hometown

   Vodka was startled when he heard the words, and began to try to recall the intersection of "Uzo" and "New Weapon".

   One second later, his mind was full of "unlucky murderers who grab the ground with their heads" and "posters that were rolled, trampled and torn to pieces".

  "..." However, to Uzo, these were barely considered weapons. But I always feel that these one-off things are not enough for Uzo to specifically mention Gin.

  Other words...

   Vodka shook his head suspiciously: "I haven't seen him use any weapons, not even the swinging stick."

   Gin nodded slowly. When Vodka was thinking about it carefully just now, he also recalled a series of cases that Uzo had encountered since his departure.

   Then he found that the so-called "new tool" did not appear in all the known reports and the messages he received privately.

  ...Maybe these small scenes are not worth letting Uzo use his "handy tool" worth mentioning.

   Of course, he may not want Bourbon to see it. Wu Zuo has always been very good at pretending to be good.

  So, on the other hand, is that "new weapon" some kind of dangerous weapon?

  … Forget it, no need to think about it now. Anyway, judging from the situation described by vodka, this "contest" between Uzo and Bourbon should not last long. When Uzo returns to Tokyo, he will know what he should know.

   Of course, if it is some kind of weapon that is out of bounds, it has to be treated the same as a gun and temporarily confiscated.

   Detectives can't have weapons that are too lethal. This is not good for the reputation of "Jiang Xia", and it will also make some timid but powerful clients feel afraid...

   After straightening out his thoughts, Gin temporarily put aside this matter, opened the laptop on his lap, and continued his work today.

   Sure enough, when there is still a driver, the work efficiency is higher. That way he can free up his hands and eyes to concentrate on his work...

  …

the other side.

   Deep in the mountains of Tottori Prefecture.

  's former residence was originally on the border of Hyogo prefecture, near Tottori prefecture.

  So Amuro Toru followed a random direction and drove from the deep forest in Hyogo Prefecture to the deep forest in Tottori Prefecture.

  … Of course, to him it made no difference.

   Amuro Toru now just wants to get out of these desolate roads as soon as possible, there is no signal, there is no way to go to the village or the store, and it is easy to blow out the tire inexplicably.

   However, at the same time, he knew in his heart that if the speed of the car was too fast, once the tire punctured, it would be very dangerous... So in the end, the vehicle could only drive in the deep mountains without any hassle.

  …

   Jiang Xia slept for a while, and when he woke up, he looked at the lush woods beside him, and the winding mountain road under his feet. The more he saw it, the more familiar he became.

   With his memory, he can firmly remember the road he walked once.

   In Jiang Xia's impression, he ran back and forth several times on this road.

  ——Isn't this the place to go to the Gold Miner Game Point... ahem, the place that leads to the Twilight Annex.

   "Twilight Annex" used to be the Karasuma family's residence—that is, the mansion of the organization boss family.

   Under its old shell, there is actually a huge amount of gold hidden. When the puzzle inside the annex is solved, the mechanism is activated, and the building shell collapses, revealing the glittering golden mansion below.

   The last time Jiang Xia came to Tottori on business, a bomb due to gin sent the dead in the murder case to the sky. Jiang Xia always felt that he was targeted by the leader, so before returning, he dropped by the leader's old mansion to dig money to relieve the pressure.

   After that, Gin refused to show him the task list. Every time he thinks of these things, Jiang Xia will wear his vest and come to the boss's hometown to see... Once he goes back and forth, he will be familiar with this trip.

   In addition, in Jiang Xia's impression, the Dusk Annex can not only be used as a decompression point after being targeted by Jinjiu, but at the same time, it is also the place where a case occurred.

  ——At that time, Karasuma Renye failed to find the hidden treasure in the annex, and finally sold the annex.

   And the current owner of the annex, in order to find treasure, sent invitation letters to famous detectives all over the world in the name of Kidd a few days ago. I plan to wait for the detectives to arrive, and immediately blow up their escape route, trap everyone inside, and threaten them with their lives to find the treasure.

   Thinking of this, Jiang Xia couldn't help but miss the inbox at the door of his detective office - maybe, he will also be on the invitation list this time.

  ...Unfortunately, the mailbox is far away in Tokyo and can't be seen now.

   However, while disappointed, he thought about it—even if he didn't receive the invitation letter, he still came to the vicinity of the Twilight Annex with the lucky boss.

   Now that they are nearby, according to the experience accumulated by Jiangxia along the way, they are probably not far from entering the Dusk Pavilion and participating in this treasure hunt.

  …

   At the same time, thinking of the Dusk Pavilion, Jiang Xia thought of his pile of accounts with abundant balances.

  Miss Spider's claws, after being strengthened with murderous aura, are very useful for climbing, drilling seams or cutting gold.

   Jiang Xia drove back and forth several times in his vest, and worked as a gold miner several times. Now, the gold in the protruding parts of the Dusk Pavilion, such as the eaves, roof ridges, and animal head sculptures... have all been loaded onto trucks and taken away.

   After digging out the protruding part, he was bored again and aimed at other more challenging parts - other gold is mainly hidden between the inner and outer walls of the building, a thick layer. Jiang Xia then evenly thinned this part of the gold.

  ... In other words, now, even if the building shell collapses, the shape of the exposed building will not be too strange, at most it looks a little more earthy and lacks carvings.

  Jiang Xia was digging happily at the time, and then he evenly cut a wall, it was like playing a game that was too much for the liver, and he couldn't get up to start another game.

After    lost interest, he originally wanted to leave the Twilight Annex to the organization for some prestige. I will change to another treasure hunting spot that I don't get tired of, move the treasure and exercise.

   But if you think about it carefully, Dusk Annex is the boss's hometown after all. After handing in, the boss can't guarantee that the shape of many buildings has changed. After excavating the surface of the building, the thinned gold layer inside may also be found... In short, if you are in Uzo, Tokyo, you will suddenly report an annex in Tottori Prefecture that is short of two pounds. Maybe it will be suspected by the boss instead.

   So until now, Jiang Xia has not acted. He intends to find a suitable enough time to "discover" this annex.

   And today, the right time seems to have come.

   And there is Toru Amuro right next to it.

The    road was chosen by Bourbon who had never been to Tottori Prefecture recently, and the car was also driven by Bourbon.

In this case, the gold dug up by unknown people in advance has nothing to do with Uzo and Bourbon who happened to come to Tottori County, and it has nothing to do with Jiang Xia... Thinking of this, Jiang Xia yawned and closed his eyes decisively. Spread out on the driver's seat and concentrate on making up your sleep.
