Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 698 you-know-who asks for a monthly pass

   Jiang Xia glanced down at the photo, and flashed in his mind last night, the picture of Mian Guanchensan being carried into the car by the peripheral members.

   Then decisively waved the screen away and shook his head.

   After thinking about it for a while, he asked, according to the habit of detectives: "When was the last time you saw him?"

   "Last night." The police put away the photo and sighed, "After the police officer in the mountain village told the witnesses to go back to rest, we stopped monitoring them, but just now..."

  Speaking of this, he hesitated for a while, apparently there was some news that was inconvenient to tell the crowd.

   But on second thought, what kind of onlookers are detectives?

  The little policeman quickly finished his hesitation, approached Jiang Xia, lowered his voice and said mysteriously in a tone of "I only tell you one person, don't tell anyone else":

"Not long ago, someone made an anonymous phone call to the Yamamura police officer and told him that Mian Guan Chensan was probably the murderer. The blood mark left on the 'April 1' on the deceased's handbook was not accidental, but It is clearly referring to the surname 'わたぬき' - 'Mianguan Chensan'.

"As a result, we hurried to the room, but found that Mian Guanchen San was gone. He didn't check out, and the luggage was still there, but the people seemed to have evaporated... The police officer sent some people to look for it nearby, and asked me and a few others. Come and ask the guests."

   "That's it." Jiang Xia nodded, his eyes softened, thoughtful, but he wasn't thinking at all. He was just thinking about it, pretending that he really hadn't seen Mian Guan Chensan after last night.

   The policeman didn't think much about it, and couldn't find any clues from Jiang Xia. He quickly turned the corner and went to ask the next guest.

  After he left, behind the flower pot ornament, a person turned out.

   Jiang Xia turned his head to look and found that it was Conan.

  Conan pressed his forehead and tried to lift his spirits, but his eyes were drowsy, as if he had not completely gotten rid of the effects of the medicine.

   It seems that Belmod was not ambiguous at the critical moment, and he was very ruthless. I don't know what medicine he used, but he even let Conan fall asleep until now.

  …

   When Conan woke up in the morning, he was stunned for a while before he remembered what happened before he fainted, and suddenly panicked.

  Last night, he roughly speculated who killed "Mr. August 1st".

   But before he was going to go to the woods and start a fishing reasoning, "Suzuki Sonoko" suddenly appeared and numb him... Conan doesn't remember anything after that.

   After he woke up, the first thing he did was to see if the people around him were still alive, and then he wanted to find that fake Suzuki Sonoko.

   However, she was told by Ma Lilan that "Suzuki Sonoko" sent her a text message, saying that the handsome guy she met last time invited her to watch the concert. The other party seems to live overseas all year round and rarely appears in Japan. It's a rare opportunity, anyway, I've finished watching Maple Leaf, so "Suzuki Sonoko" went to the show overnight to pick up the handsome guy.

  Conan couldn't find the suspicious mysterious person who would disguise himself, so he had to focus on the current case first.

   He asked politely, only to find that the case has not been solved yet - Conan originally thought that even if he fell asleep, Jiang Xia would solve the case with a slow tone and a speed like before.

   Who knows not.

  Although Conan is puzzled, he is also worried that if it drags on, Mianguan Chensan will find a way to deal with the possible criminal evidence.

   So he decisively made an anonymous phone call to Yamamura, who led the team, to inform him of the known situation.

  At the beginning, Conan actually wanted to borrow Jiang Xia's voice.

   But on second thought, Jiang Xia didn't solve the case directly, maybe there was some serious reason. So in the end, Conan just used a bow-knot voice changer to randomly tune an adult male voice to report to the police - even if the physical evidence is incomplete, at least he has to find a way to control Tatsumi for a while, so that he can take advantage of the opportunity.

   However, it was still too late. Waiting for the unreliable Yamamura Cao to direct his unreliable subordinates to act, Mian Guanchen didn't know where to go.

  …

   At this time, Conan stood at the door of Jiang Xia's room, listening to the mess upstairs and downstairs, and looked up at Jiang Xia, who also looked like he had just woken up. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask about what happened yesterday.

   He lowered his voice: "Why didn't you solve the case?"

  Jiang Xia squatted down to match Conan's height, otherwise, given the height difference between the two, he wouldn't be able to whisper anything at all, he sighed:

   "There is no evidence to convict. The **** handprint of 'April 1' left before death can't explain anything. Mian Guanchen San can say that it was accidentally rubbed by the deceased."

  Conan nodded gloomily. Indeed, otherwise he wouldn't have rushed into the woods alone last night and tried to lead Mian Guan Chensan out.

Thinking of this, Conan suddenly realized one thing - before, Jiang Xia seemed to have carried out similar fishing behaviors to prisoners, such as tricking prisoners of this kind into such and such gloomy corners, and then knocking on a piece of marinated pork. Beat them evenly like that...

  Although the fishing methods of the two are different, after ignoring some less legal details, they can reach the same goal in different ways-they can quickly bring the criminals to justice and let them receive the punishment they deserve.

   But now, judging from the fact that Mian Guanchensan is still at large, Jiang Xia didn't do that?

   This doesn't make sense...

  Conan immediately thought of the biggest influencing factor - Amuro Toru.

  "..." Speaking of which, it's still a complete mystery about this boss and the trip he planned.

   There was no progress on Mianguan Tatsuzo's side for the time being, and Conan's attention was attracted by this more lasting puzzle.

He stood on tiptoe and tried his best to glance at Jiang Xia's room, then sneakily glanced at the corridors on both sides, his voice was even lower: "Who's not there?" Conan simply stopped talking. He took out his mobile phone, typed a string of words, and turned it over to Jiang Xia to see: [Do you have a bug on your body? ]

   Jiang Xia: "..."

   Although I guessed that "that who" refers to "that who"...but why did the boss become you-know-who here in Conan?

  ...he doesn't look very bourbon lately. Instead, he sometimes looks like a police officer. Sometimes he stays up all night, sometimes he sleeps too deeply, and his state switches too frequently, making him a little confused.

   Jiang Xia subconsciously touched all over his body while thinking.

  Eavesdropping is of course impossible, and even if Toru Amuro had really released it, the ghosts would have discovered it long ago. But other people don't know the existence of ghosts, so they have to act like there are no ghosts... eh? Wait a moment.

   Jiang Xia was startled, and suddenly realized that he didn't seem to wake up too much. Yesterday, knocking people all over the mountain was a bit of a waste of energy, so that now I have a little error in my thinking.
