Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 89 Jiangxia people are gone

   Jiangxia disappeared without warning. In the castle room, Toru Amuro, Maurilan, Sonoko Suzuki, and Conan, you look at me, I look at you, all fell silent - not one of them could even tell exactly when they saw Jiang Xia for the last time.

——There are exactly two windows in this room, and there is a clothes rack in the middle that blocks the view. Suzuki Sonoko and Ma Lilan didn’t see Jiang Xia, so they thought that Jiang Xia, as a boy, was going to get together with the man next to the other window. piled up.

   Amuro Toru felt that Jiang Xia must be on the side of Ma Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko with the enthusiasm Jiang Xia expressed to his two female classmates.

   As for Conan... As soon as he got to the window, as soon as he saw the huge chessboard full of puzzles, he entered the puzzle-solving mode, and didn't even think about the question of "Which window is Jiang Xia at".

   Now that Conan is aware of the situation, he silently bows his head to reflect—his own power of observation is so poor that he doesn't notice that there is a big living person next to him... It shouldn't be, it really shouldn't be.

   There is no signal here, so there is no way to ask where Jiang Xia is now.

   However, although one person was missing, since the four of them had not heard any suspicious movements just now, there was no such thing as a scream. So they didn't panic at all—maybe Jiang Xia just went to the bathroom.

   However, they looked around in the bathroom and found no one.

   Considering the complex terrain of this castle, several people walked around the corridor on the same floor for a while, but did not see Jiang Xia at all.

   Finally, the four of them stared at the end of the corridor and fell silent.

   This is a little weird. Even if you get lost, you won't get lost in other layers.

Conan frowned, remembering Jiang Xia's speed of reasoning, and suddenly thought: "He... Did brother Jiang Xia solve the puzzle, so he went to the place indicated by the chess piece?" Jiang Xia may have already made a preliminary inference, but I'm not quite sure about my own judgment, so I want to check it first.

After the idea of ​​   came up, Conan remembered Jiang Xia's way of answering the questions carefully when he was pulled by Kudo Yukiko to participate in the puzzle game when he was a child. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the truth should be like this.

  Amuro doesn't have as many brain supplement materials like Conan. He thinks crookedly: "You mean, Jiang Xia went to find the treasure by himself?"

  ... But if Jiang Xia really deciphered the code, even if he didn't tell the castle owner, he would at least tell them.

   This kind of sneaking behavior is easily reminiscent of "swallowed treasure".

   But Amuro remembered the funds that were not embezzled by Jiangxia, but were used to advertise the store, as well as the experience coupons and feng shui pills that Jiangxia refused to sell, and felt that Jiangxia should not be such a dog.

  Suzuki Sonoko and Maurilan, of course, didn't think in a bad way.

  Suzuki Sonoko was convinced: "He must have been addicted to solving puzzles, too focused, and forgot to tell us when he was leaving - that who, Kudo, doesn't he often run away suddenly when he thinks of clues?"

  Mao Lilan nodded with authority: "Indeed."

   After such deductions, although the four people's mental journeys were completely different, they even reluctantly came to a similar conclusion.

"This castle is very big. If you want to confirm the treasure location, it will take a lot of time." Amuro said, turning around, "Let's go back to the room and wait, maybe he will go back by himself after a while. ."

   However, it turns out that it is not.

   Until dinner time, Jiang Xia did not appear.

   But Mamiya Man sent someone to look for them - Mamiya Man prepared a feast for the guests, and wanted to ask about the progress of solving the puzzle by the way.

   The four of them arrived at the restaurant, and Mamiya Man rubbed his hands to greet him. Then he was puzzled and disappointed to find that the detective he had hoped for the most was gone.

   After so long, the protagonists finally realized that things seemed to go beyond expectations.

  No matter why Jiang Xia left, he hadn't come back so late, maybe there was an accident.

   Toru Amuro's face was especially ugly.

   He looked out the dark window, and for the nth time he couldn't help but think of the weird tooth marks on his tires and the inexplicable puncture.

  If the tire blowout is not an accident at all, but someone else or something, such as g...cough, no, it can only be interference from other people. That means Mamiyaman, the castle owner, may not be as friendly as he has shown.

  Mamiya Mitsuru was searching his brain to find where the young famous detective was, but before he could find it, he suddenly froze behind him.

  Mamiyaman raised his head alertly, and found that Amuro Toru was staring at him again with a creepy gaze.

  Mamiya Man shrinks his neck: "What, what's wrong? What about that little gentleman?"

   Amuro Toru looked at him silently for a while, but didn't see any problem.

   He pressed his wrinkled brows. After a while, he remembered the vast area of ​​the castle and the number of family members of Mamiya. He tried to tell Mamiya that someone was missing, and planned to ask the castle owner to help find someone.

  If Mamiya Man really plotted against Jiang Xia and caused Jiang Xia to disappear, then asking Mamiya Man to help find someone now, at most, Ma Gong Man will laugh at him in his heart for "trust others", and there will be no worse results.

   And if Mamiya Manchu is innocent, then the group of servants under him can undoubtedly greatly increase the speed of finding someone.

If Jiang Xia's disappearance was not calculated by someone, but by some unfortunate accident—for example, following the prompts to find a place, but the place fell into disrepair and suddenly collapsed and he was trapped, then find someone earlier, of course. It can also avoid accidents.

  …

  Miyagami did not refuse.

  Someone is missing in his house, or a detective who is suspected of finding treasure is missing, of course he will try his best to find them.

   While Mamiya Man and the protagonists were trying to find someone, there was another person in the dark secret passage trying to find Jiang Xia.

   Nishikawa Suimei—that is, the maid who had plastic surgery into a fake old lady, was carrying a wooden stick and walked silently in the long passage.

   She usually pretends to be demented, but in fact she has been paying close attention to what happened at home. Today, when a few guests came, Nishikawa Suimei immediately found out.

   She sat in a wheelchair and pretended to be crazy and chatted with a few guests. She was shocked to find that there were two detectives in this group, and one of them was relatively famous.

   Nishikawa Suimei was a little nervous. First, she was worried that these people would covet her treasure. Second, she had killed so many people before, so she naturally felt guilty about police detectives and the like.

   Nishikawa Suomi originally planned to wait a little later and take the opportunity to drive these people away, but before that, she suddenly discovered that the young famous detective had disappeared.

  Other people can't figure out why a big living person disappears out of thin air, but Nishikawa Suimei knows it very well.

  ——She had accidentally discovered the mechanism in the castle before, and she knew the distribution of secret passages well. Nishikawa Suimei recalled where Jiang Xia and the others were when they observed the chessboard, and immediately realized that there was an entrance to a secret passage nearby.

   That detective must have discovered the secret passage and walked in.
