The Corpse Collector In Conan Chapter 89: Jiangxia people are gone
Jiang Xia 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 just two windows in this room, and there is a clothes hanger 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 talk to the other window. of men piled up.
And Toru Amuro felt that Jiang Xia must be on the side of Ma Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko with the enthusiasm Jiang Xia showed for 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 he didn't even think about the question "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 I can't use my cell phone to ask where Jiang Xia is now.
However, although one person is missing, since the four of them have not heard any suspicious movements just now, there is no such thing as a scream. So they didn't panic at all—maybe Jiang Xia just went to the bathroom.
However, they went to the bathroom to look around 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 they didn't see Jiang Xia at all.
Finally, the four 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 had a preliminary idea. Inference, but I am not sure about my judgment, so I want to verify it first.
After this idea came up, Conan remembered Jiang Xia's cautious answer 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 as 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 Anshitou remembered the funds that were not embezzled by Jiangxia, but were used to advertise the store, as well as the experience coupons and Fengshui pills that Jiangxia refused to sell, and felt that Jiangxia should not be such a dog.
Suzuki Sonoko and Maurilan certainly didn't think in a bad way.
Suzuki Sonoko is convinced: "He must be addicted to solving puzzles, too focused, and forgot to tell us when he left - 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 be in a while. I went back myself."
However, it turns out that it doesn't.
Until dinner time, Jiang Xia didn't show up either.
However, 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.
When the four of them arrived at the restaurant, Mamiya Man rubbed his hands to greet him. Then he was puzzled and disappointed to find that the detective he had most hoped for was gone.
After so long, the protagonists finally realized that things seemed to go beyond expectations.
No matter why Jiang Xia left, he hasn't come back so late, maybe something happened.
Toru Amuro's face was particularly 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 flat tire.
If the puncture is not an accident at all, but is caused by other people 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 for where the young famous detective was, but before he could find it, he suddenly froze behind him.
Mamiya Man raised his head alertly, only to find that Amuro Toru was staring at him again with a creepy gaze.
Mamiya shrank his neck: "What, what's wrong? What about that little gentleman?"
Amuro stared at him silently for a while, but didn't see any problem.
He pressed his frown, and after a while, he remembered the vast area of the castle and the number of Mamiya Matsuki. He tried to tell Mamiya Matsu about someone missing, and planned to ask the castle owner to help find it. people.
If Mamiya Man really plotted against Jiang Xia and caused Jiang Xia to disappear, then asking Mamiya Man to help find someone, at most, Mamiya Man will only laugh at him in his heart for "trust others", and it will not be worse the result of.
And if Mamiya Man is innocent, then the group of servants under him can undoubtedly greatly improve the speed of finding someone.
If Jiang Xia's disappearance wasn't calculated by others, but by some unfortunate accident—for example, following the prompts to find a place~IndoMTL.com~, the place was in disrepair and suddenly collapsed and he was trapped, then If you find someone earlier, of course, you will be able to avoid accidents.
…
Mamiya did not refuse.
Someone is missing in his home, 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 gloomy secret passage trying to find Jiang Xia.
Nishikawa Suimei, the maid who had plastic surgery to become a fake old lady, was walking silently down the long passage with a wooden stick.
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 quite 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 Suimei originally planned to wait a little later to take the opportunity to drive these people away, but before that, she suddenly discovered that the young famous detective had disappeared.
Others can't figure out why a big living person disappears out of thin air, but Nishikawa Suimei knows it very well.
——She accidentally discovered the mechanism in the castle before, and she knew the distribution of secret passages like the back of her hand. 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.
The detective must have discovered the secret passage and walked in.
