Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 581 Kidd: Amuro has a problem, ask for a monthly pass

   Kidd: "...?"

  Wait, this familiar movement...

Just as this thought flashed through his mind, he suddenly felt that the mysterious power in his body, which was inexplicable, seemed to be sucked away by something, and gradually gathered in the place where the foggy dog ​​touched. In the end, they followed the fingertips of the mist tengu and completely left his body.

  ...the magic power that has been accumulated for a long time. Clap, gone.

   The process of drawing away magic power is not much slower than drawing blood.

When the   Fog Tengu retracted his hand, Kidd's feet were fluttering, and there was a sense of drop from the full state to the state after four or five laps.

   He slowed down and quickly got used to this weakened state.

   After all, this is not the first time that magic power has been robbed...

   Moreover, compared to the previous robbery in vain, this time, he even got an extra famous detective who was extremely difficult to catch. Hiss, there is a feeling of earning...

  …

   Facts have proved that the foggy dog ​​is indeed a polite monster who talks about martial arts in a civilized manner.

After    took away the magic power, although he looked a little reluctant, he still reluctantly handed over the famous detective who was in a state of "anesthesia".

   Kidd raised his hand to take it, and did a quick check by the way.

   After finding that Jiang Xia's body was breathing smoothly and there was no messy allergic reaction, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

  The self-produced anaesthetic of the foggy tengu seems to be quite safe and harmless...

   Having confirmed that the replacement target is not in danger of life, Kidd remembered half of what he just said.

He looked at Wutiangu: "I haven't seen you for a while. Did those witches trouble you later? If they bring any advanced weapons or equipment, you can contact me for help - the phone that Grandpa Terai gave you is still there. Right. If you run out of power, you can come and find me to recharge."

  ——A while ago, Terai Huangzhisuke went to Kidd to visit his young master. Just as the old grandpa sat down and took a leisurely sip of tea, he saw a foggy tengu who came to gather magic power every day fell on the balcony.

   Tori Terai sprayed a sip of tea on the coffee table. After panicking, he bought a mobile phone overnight, saying that if there was anything wrong with Wutiangu, he could call and contact him without going to the door in person.

   Terai Huangnosuke has little contact with Wutengu. But he still remembers that there are "humans" on the recipe of this monster. And because of this, I always feel that the misty dog ​​comes to the residential area, just like a sweet child entering a free candy store. I was worried that when the foggy dog ​​left, like those humans who love to bring souvenirs, he grabbed a girl with thin skin and tender meat from the vicinity and went back to hang it on the tree as a ration.

   Jiang Xia was very aware of Grandpa Terai's intention to send the mobile phone, and he didn't intend to frighten this innocent old man who was not murderous.

   But the magic power cannot be extracted through the phone after all. So he still counts the time when the magic power grows, and comes to harvest it. At most, take a peek before landing, and let the ghosts see if Terai Huangnosuke is at Kidd's house. If he is, he will come back later...

  I haven't been there recently because Jiang Xia was suddenly targeted by Amuro Toru, and he was far away from Tokyo after going out. It was only a few days late.

  ...I didn't expect Kidd to remember it.

  How to say, this thief has a strong sense of time and self-management...

   Jiang Xia glanced at Kidd with a bit of emotion, and answered his question half-truth: "The witches haven't come, I don't know where they are. I've been busy looking for them recently."

   Kidd: "...That's it."

   suddenly felt a little sympathetic to the witch. With modern high technology, can't you deal with the foggy dog...

  …

   After simply solving the question of "Fog Tiangou hasn't come to the door recently", Kidd looked at his watch and didn't waste any more time.

   He took off Jiang Xia's coat and counted the replacement target's belongings.

   After a while, he suddenly frowned: "He doesn't have a cell phone with him."

   Young people of this age, especially a part-time detective who needs to contact clients at any time, don’t even bring their mobile phones when they go out?

  …It’s not normal to think about it.

   And Kidd recalled in detail, and found that just now, he changed his face and asked Jiang Xia to help set up the tire, Jiang Xia directly opened the door and got out of the car, and did not "throw the mobile phone in the car to free up". And there was no charging phone in the car.

   In other words, Jiang Xia didn’t forget to bring it in a hurry, but he didn’t have it.

  Wait, so to speak…

   Kidd suddenly remembered all the doubts that had arisen before.

   Just now he was busy dodging Jiang Xia's throwing stick, and after dodging, he was busy chasing Jiang Xia who ran into the deep forest, and didn't have time to think about it.

   Looking back now, I found that when Jiang Xia was dodging the electric shocker from behind, his movements were too sharp to be normal. And from dodging to counterattack, his expression was indifferent throughout the whole process, without any emotions such as "accidents".

  ... It's almost like the "sneak attack by Amuro Toru" is very likely to happen.

   "..." Even if it was because Jiang Xia passed through some flaws, he discovered in advance that the person who came was not "Amuro Toru", but the phantom thief Kidd.

But further back, after Jiang Xia ran into the woods, he did not meander in the direction of the gas station, ask Amuro or the staff for help, but ran all the way to the deep forest... This kind of action is not like the gas station at all. With his companions, it seems like there are some dangerous gangsters over there.

  "..." The more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong.

   Kidd looked at Jiang Xia's body, his eyes slightly serious: This detective will not encounter any kidnapping incident.

   Speaking of which, the boss who went out with Jiang Xia really didn't have much information, he looked mysterious, and he was very sensitive to the sight of the tracking, so it was difficult to investigate...

   Kidd sighed after thinking about it.

   Originally, he planned to tie up the replaced target and hide it as usual, and throw it in a place where people would go regularly, waiting for the local staff to find and rescue it.

but now……

   Let Grandpa Terai help watch people for a while, and after he retreats from the Dusk Annex, send Jiang Xia to the police station.

   Otherwise, just throw it everywhere as before. After that, Jiang Xia was captured and killed by the accomplices of the evil party, which was not very good.

   Anyway, judging from the current situation, even if Jiang Xia wakes up, he will probably give priority to dealing with this strange boss, Amuro. After all, in Jiang Xia's impression, the one who attacked and chased him with an electric shock should not be Kidd, but "Amuro Toru".

   In addition, although Jiang Xia encountered the foggy Tiangu directly.

  But Kidd carefully recalled the scene just now——

  It was already late, and the trees were dense with leaves, and the light was extremely dim.

  The foggy tengu stretched out its wings from behind the tree and grabbed people. It was only a momentary thing. Even Kidd, who knew the foggy tengu and was separated by a distance, reacted first before he understood what happened.

   So from Jiang Xia's point of view, I'm afraid I can only feel that when I run, I bump into something furry, and then my vision goes dark, my neck gets pricked, and I lose consciousness...

   In addition, after all, he is a detective who values ​​physical evidence. Even if he saw it, Jiang Xia would probably only give priority to what traps were placed here, rather than "there are monsters plotting against me".
