Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 94 Are you here to throw the pot again?

   After Amuro came up with that speculation, he looked at Anonymous, his eyes sank slightly: "Where is Jiang Xia?"

   After a pause, he couldn't help it, and then asked again: "You broke my tire? You've been following us?"

   "..." Anonymous paused suspiciously as she adjusted her skirt.

  Amuro narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about which question he had come to the point.

   But Anonymous stepped on the steep eaves outside the window, shook her head, and finally only picked one question she wanted to answer: "I didn't follow you on purpose."

   Amuro can't believe it. In just a few days, he has met Anonymous twice. Once, Anonymous even took the initiative to find him: "You don't mean to say that these are all coincidences."

   "It's not a coincidence, but it's not intentional either." Anonymous took a step back and said meaningfully, "I'm here just because...we are everywhere."

  ... After all, as we all know, there are countless anonymous clones, anyone can be anonymous, and anonymous can be anyone.

  Amuro Toru didn't think about it, but felt that the name was just avoiding the important, so it was a mystery.

   He was about to ask questions from the beginning, but before he could speak, he suddenly froze and rushed forward.

   But before he arrived, Anonymous had already stepped down the eaves and disappeared into the thick darkness below.

   Amuro clicked his tongue and wanted to rush back under the tower, but when he turned around, he just met Suzuki Sonoko's shocked gaze.

  Suzuki Sonoko said in horror: "You...you pushed the person down?!"

   "..." Amuro was silent for a moment while holding the new pot, and suddenly thought that he might have been wrong about his name just now.

   He sighed: "I want to hold her."

  …

   Jiang Xia's consciousness returned to his body. He waited in the secret passage for a while, and after a while, he saw Miyano Akemi leading a group of souls, lining up and floating back through the wall.

  The shikigami seemed to be quite satisfied with this ending, and the ghost mint was not in vain.

  Jiang Xia squatted down, picked up the souls one by one, signed the contract, and pinched them for a while, before slowly putting them back into the tattoo, ready to "run into" the people who came to him.

  The structure of this castle is complex, the secret roads are crisscrossed, and the secret doors are also very hidden, and you will get lost if you are not careful. In addition, someone deliberately blocked it, and it was normal to wander around for an hour.

  …

After   Anonymous jumped off the tower suddenly, the four people at the top of the tower quickly chased after him, but they were not too flustered-there was Anonymous jumping off the shinkansen with a bomb, and they always felt that Anonymous would not die just jumping from the tower.

   As it turns out, several people were right.

There are no anonymous corpses at all under the    tower, and of course there are no injured anonymous people waiting to be picked up, only the corpse of the old lady.

  Although life was at stake, the four of them could not be sure of the position of others in the castle, so they didn't go to the helper to collect the corpse, but advanced to the secret passage of the castle to find someone.

   They successfully found Jiangxia.

   After meeting with his teammates, Jiang Xia briefly explained a few words, and then told them that there was a skeleton in the secret passage.

   The attention of the other four was quickly sucked by the corpse, especially the two detectives - they immediately thought of the "old lady" who fell to her death under the tower, and gradually made up the cause and effect.

  …

  The next day, the telephone line was repaired, the police arrived quickly, and the car called by Amuro Toru also came.

   When Amuro opened the trunk and checked the tires inside, Jiang Xia also leaned over to take a look. This time, the tires were actually packed in a locked metal box.

   Jiang Xia: "..."

   He was shocked for a moment, but soon relaxed again.

  ——If you really encounter a case later, then you don't need to bite the spare tire at all. As long as no one is paying attention, hide it under the car, and casually break the other tire. It is impossible for Amuro to take four spare tires on the road.

   However, unfortunately, the way back was very calm and no more cases occurred.

   The five people in the car let out a sigh of relief at the same time when they saw the familiar streets of Beika-cho.

   Four of them were glad that they finally arrived at their destination, and the other one had a little bit of regret.

  …

  The organization also has specific regulations, such as writing a report after completing the task.

   This was originally Amuro's job, but Amuro left it to his titular apprentice.

After Jiang Xia returned to Tokyo, he first went to Dr. A Li's house and brought back the cats and dogs that were deposited there - he was not at home these few days, but the bad people's search for cats and dogs did not stop, and they picked them up. pets need someone to take care of them.

   So Jiang Xia used his tool man, the grandfather, the neighbor Dr. A Li. In the past, when he helped Dr. A Li test those new inventions, he was often bombed, so when he troubled the neighbors, Jiang Xia was extraordinarily confident.

   Jiang Xia brought his pet to the office, and while waiting for business in the store, he wrote a task report according to the sample given by Amuro.

   By evening, he had successfully completed the work.

   was about to send the report to a specific mailbox when the phone suddenly rang. Listen to the one with the black ringtone, which is the special machine for contacting the organization.

   Jiang Xia was startled and answered the phone.

   Gin's voice came from the receiver: "Where are you now?"

Jiang Xia tasted this sentence and felt that things were unusual - if there was a task, Jinjiu would usually use sentences such as "come to ×××", and he would never use "where are you" firstly. "Do you have time?" It is inconvenient to ask the other party.

  So..."Where are you" here is probably similar to a police investigation alibi?

   Well, the more I think about it, the more I think it should be like this.

   And I always feel that Jinjiu's tone is murderous, but unfortunately I am not next to him now, otherwise I will definitely be able to pull a lot...

   Jiang Xia greedily listened to the voice in the earphones, and unfortunately pinched the ghost on his leg, and replied briefly: "In the office."

   said, he glanced at the gloomy sky outside the window.

   Jiang Xia just moved in with the cats and dogs, and it started to rain in the sky.

  This weather, coupled with this time... He suddenly thought, could it be that Shirley defected?

   Sure enough, Jinjiu mentioned this code name in the next sentence, but before he finished speaking, the back of the sofa Jiang Xia was leaning against was suddenly knocked on.

  Jiang Xia turned around and saw that An Shitou had come back at some unknown time. At this moment, he was standing behind him and stretched out his hand towards him.

  Look at that, as if asking for a cell phone.
