Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 84 It turns out you are not a good person

   Kikuemon's expression was calm.

   He cleared his throat and sat up straight, just about to speak.

   But at this moment, Jiang Xia suddenly put down the teacup and pointed at the display cabinet: "I'll choose the pot on the leftmost side of the third floor."

   Kikuemon was startled, and after a while, his face changed suddenly.

   And these words fell in the ears of the others in the Kikuemon family: the teacup was saved.

They suddenly forgot the ridicule of the layman, and only moved in their hearts - from the behavior of the "layman" just now, they obviously already knew the speciality of the teacup, but they felt that it was too precious and was embarrassed to point it out, so they chose it. Got an ordinary pottery... nice guy! This detective is a considerate and nice guy!

  Daughter-in-law was afraid that Jiang Xia would go back on it, she smiled, trotted to the cabinet, and found it according to the position Jiang Xia said, the third floor, the far left...

Ok?

  Daughter-in-law stared at the pottery pot that was supposed to be lying in the warehouse, her face turned pale: "Dad, it... How come Feng Shui pills are in the showcase!?"

   This is Kikuemon's proud new work, which condenses his insights and efforts in recent years. This work has not been released in time. It stands to reason that it should be carefully stored in the warehouse at this time, but why...

   Kikuemon turned his face away in dissatisfaction: "Since you want to test others, of course you must carry out the test to the end. Feng Shui Pill is the masterpiece I cherish the most right now, and it is worthy of this bet."

  So just now, the old man struggled for a while, he ran to the warehouse and took the Feng Shui pills out, so that if Jiang Xia was not selected, he would be able to show Jiang Xia his proud work on the spot. I didn't expect...

   Jiang Xia understood after listening to the two people's speeches.

   He resisted the complicated eyes of his apprentices, such as "Damn I misread you before", "So you are this kind of person", "Return the good person card to me" and so on: "..."

   Good luck is also his fault?

   Not to mention I don't know if this is the real thing... but it's also used to grow potted plants anyway, and it's the same for everyone.

   Jiang Xia took the pottery pot that his daughter-in-law reluctantly handed over, touched the hand, and put it aside: "Thank you."

Although    Kikuemon was willing to admit defeat, he was still a little depressed.

   At this time, he remembered that Jiang Xia first stared at the teacup, and then accurately picked the "Feng Shui Pill". He found that this little detective had a surprisingly good eye, and maybe he could ask Jiang Xia to help see the works of his three apprentices.

  The title of Kikuemon can only be possessed by one person at a time, that is to say, before his death, one of the most proud apprentices must be selected and given the title.

   Kikuemon handed over the power to choose the next "Kikuemon" to his daughter-in-law. Although the daughter-in-law does not make pottery, she has a strong appreciation ability.

   is just right. Recently, my daughter-in-law seems to be hesitating who to give the title to. In this case, it is better to let Jiang Xia give some advice. "Feng Shui Pills" should be regarded as asking Jiang Xia's appreciation fee - thinking about it like this, I feel a lot better.

   Kikuemon heaved a sigh of relief, and he looked at his daughter-in-law: "Go and bring over the works they just burned, and show them to the guests."

  Daughter-in-law went to fetch things, and the apprentices went to help. Kikuemon walked into the corridor and looked at the courtyard, wondering what he was thinking about. Maolilan and the others continued to watch the precious collections next to the showcase. There are many not-for-sale items in it, which cannot be seen on the market.

Next to the coffee table, Amuro glanced at the pottery pot Jiang Xia was holding, and whispered, "The pattern on this should be inspired by the waves and vortexes, it is the style that Kikuemon is best at, and it is estimated to be around ten million. Above, when I go back, I can find someone to help you realize it.”

   "...Ah?" Jiang Xia has several hundred million in cash, and is not very interested in money at the moment, and at this time, he has already thought about what to plant with the newly acquired pottery.

   was suddenly disrupted by the plan, and he said reluctantly: "It's not good to sell gifts from others."

   Amuro Toru: "..." Who said that he was short of money before.

   But Jiang Xia's eyes were quite sincere, not polite.

   At this time, Amuro suddenly remembered that he wanted to buy a pottery classroom experience ticket yesterday, but Jiang Xia rejected it on the grounds that he "can't resell the things sent by customers".

  ...Could it be that Jiang Xia was not looking for excuses at the time, but really thought so?

  … in a strange place, the moral standards are pretty high.

   If it wasn't for the organization to instill a bunch of evil ideas, maybe in other ways... the evil organization is always destroying the future of the island country.

  Amuro sighed regretfully in his heart, and made another note for the organization in black.

  …

   A group of people waited in the room for nearly ten minutes. Instead of waiting for the works of the apprentices, they waited for the pale-faced daughter-in-law.

   When she was picking up the pottery, she slipped and knocked down a cabinet. Most of the porcelain inside was broken, including a few works by Kikuemon.

   The apprentices who went with them were too frightened to speak out - this is a very rare mistake for a shrewd young lady.

   Kikuemon was caught off guard by the news of the deaths of his masterpieces. He shook his head and raised his hand to cover his heart.

   Amuro Toru and Conan stood up vigilantly and began to review the first aid steps in their minds.

   However, it turns out that this national treasure master can live to be nearly 80 years old because he has his own way of regulating his mood.

   He recovered quickly, shook his head and said to his daughter-in-law: "The tangible things will eventually dissipate... Let them clean up the debris, you can prepare dinner, and entertain guests tonight."

   Having said that, the old man was actually a little sad, and he lost the thought of discussing the "pottery soul" with Jiang Xia for a while, so he walked back to the room and closed himself.
