Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 70 Brush Izu

   In the morning, Jiang Xia routinely came to the detective office, lined up the newly received cat and dog cages, and ordered the points.

   In addition, the previous entrustment of the money lending collateral has also expired. Jiang Xia looked at the register and called the clients one by one.

   After posting about cats and dogs, someone came to the door.

   Jiang Xia raised his head and found that it was the client who asked him to keep an eye on the collateral.

   The client went to Mrs. Maru just now to pay back the money and got back the mortgaged pottery. Now she stopped by the detective agency to make up the balance.

   She was obviously very happy to get back the pottery.

After    paid the remuneration, she gave Jiang Xia a beautiful little card with bronzing words:

   "This is the shop my friend is working in. His shop has been relocated recently, and he gave us some experience coupons, but I really don't have time to go there. If you are interested, you can go and have a look."

After    Jiang Xia sent her away, he looked at the experience ticket in his hand.

   It is not uncommon for the client to give away coupons at random. This is actually because the client is advertising, and they will share one when they meet the right occasion.

   At this time, many experience coupons for the opening of new stores have been stuffed in the business card box of the office. Most of them are restaurants, and there have been a few game halls, all of which were given to the hard-working younger brother by Jiang Xia.

   But this time it's special - it's an experience ticket for a pottery classroom.

   Jiang Xia originally planned to put it in the card case after taking a glance.

   However, when he saw the word "Izu" on the address, Jiang Xia made a move.

  Izu is a famous seaside tourist destination, about two or three hours' drive from Tokyo.

   Jiang Xia is not interested in watching the sea, but he remembers that in this world, Izu is also an accident-prone place. Every time Conan and others go to the beach in Izu, they will encounter some cases where they can pick up ghosts.

  ... Why don't you go to school tomorrow and try to drop this experience ticket at the feet of Maurilan or Suzuki Sonoko and see what happens?

   As he was thinking, Xiao Bai suddenly poked him and pointed to the back.

  Jiang Xia turned around and saw Amuro standing at the entrance of the office, looking at the experience ticket in his hand: "The pottery studio in Kikuemon?"

   Jiang Xia was startled.

   After a while, he thought for a while, and remembered that Toru Amuro can barely count as a member of the protagonist group, so he should have some event physique.

   So he handed over the experience ticket and asked tentatively, "Have you heard of this store?"

   "Well, this is the shop advertised by 'Kikuemon'." Amuro took the card and took a closer look.

   Seeing Jiang Xia's look of interest, he said by the way: "'Kikuemon' is not a person's name, but a title. Anyone who can get it is a national treasure-level pottery master.

"Now 'Kikuemon' has been passed down to the fifth generation, and its owner Tsuchiya Mankichi is almost 80. At this age, the pottery workshop is suddenly renovated... It may be that fewer and fewer people learn this craft. I want to build a famous store and attract apprentices to his apprentices."

  "..." Jiang Xia did not expect that an experience ticket that he just accepted would have so many backgrounds.

   In addition, there is another thing that is a bit strange - Toru Amuro knows too much, and pottery is not a popular hobby. Even if Bourbon is good at gathering intelligence, does he even remember the real name of the fifth generation "Kikuemon"?

  ... There are tricks.

   And there are tricky things, which usually means there is hope for ghosts.

  An Shitou found that Jiang Xia's eyes gradually became wrong.

   He remembered Jiang Xia's spoiler-like reasoning ability, and he didn't hide it: "There is indeed a related task recently." After speaking, Amuro shook the experience ticket in his hand, "I took this and used it."

   Jiang Xia nodded.

   Then he took out his phone and opened search.

   Kikuemon is really a celebrity, and you can find a lot of information about him on the Internet.

   Recently, there is indeed a pottery experience classroom under this person's name, but it was not opened by him, but by his younger brother, a man named Mino Souyuki.

   Mino Sozhi actually opened a store more than ten years ago, but it has always been very low-key. But recently, Kikuemon urged his younger brother to renovate the store and put forward many requests for improvement.

   So currently, this store is still in trial operation.

   The experience coupons given by the client to Jiangxia were not advertisements, but veritable "experience coupons" with limited issuance and not for sale.

   Jiang Xia looked at the news, and then looked at the two very impressive names, and suddenly regretted it.

  ... If I had known this earlier, I shouldn't have nodded my head just now.
