The Corpse Collector In Conan Chapter 109: The thief
Recently, Jiang Xia has received very few cases.
The newspapers ordered were still delivered every day, but Jiang Xia rummaged through the pages for a while, but couldn't find her figure on it. His collection of clippings has also not been updated for several days.
In the end, Jiang Xia could only stop at a slightly familiar page - this page was printed with a photo of a blurry figure under the moonlight. Judging from the title, this was probably the phantom thief Kidd Precious images of escaping after stealing.
In this world, Kaitou Kid is a bug-like character. His main job is a high school student in an island country who is full of talents, and his part-time job is a phantom thief who looks like the wind under the moonlight, and is very good at magic and disguise.
Although to the outside world, Kaitou Kid's appearance and age are unknown, but because he is well versed in the way of pretending to be [beep-], he still attracts countless fans with his highly performative and superb techniques.
In addition, Kidd likes to send a notice to the victim that needs to be decrypted before committing the crime, and his behavior is quite artistic, so reporters especially like to report on him.
Jiang Xia had also seen Kidd in the newspapers several times before, but because the phantom thief seemed to have the effect of resolving murder cases—every time Kidd appeared, there were not many dead people—so Jiang Xia had an impression of him. Very general, if you see it, if you don't see it, just skip it.
But this time...
Jiang Xia read the contents of the newspaper, and always felt that this incident might have something to do with him. Judging from the report, Kidd recently issued another notice, which was sent to the director of the Suzuki consortium. Long, that is, Suzuki Sonoko's father's.
Kidd's goal is the dark star, the pearl regarded by the Suzuki family as the "Guardian of Suzuki".
Just as he was thinking about it, Jiang Xia felt the phone vibrate. He picked up the phone and heard Sonoko Suzuki's voice in the receiver.
"Have you read the news!" Suzuki Sonoko sounded very excited, "Kid is coming to steal our house!"
Jiang Xia: "..."
This tone is as happy as it is for the New Year. Those who don't know may think that she is Kidd's assistant, not some family member of the victim...
Suzuki Sonoko came to invite Jiang Xia to help her catch Kidd.
The ostensible reason is to share the pressure for her hard-working old father.
In fact, she was curious about what the legendary thief Kidd looked like - Jiang Xia was so good at solving the case, maybe he could easily see through Kidd's theft plan, and then catch Kidd.
And... as a girl who has just passed the second phase of her junior high school and has not yet been fully cured of her second disease, Suzuki Sonoko actually wants to see two handsome guys fighting each other for her (home treasure) - yes, the focus of the battle It's her, not the dark star.
In addition, Suzuki Sonoko has checked some information before, and knows that Kidd never kills people. There are even media reports that Kidd once destroyed some upcoming murders in his spare time, and saved him. Few people.
And Suzuki Sonoko remembers Jiang Xia saying that he likes to crack tricks.
She combined the two premises and immediately realized that this meant that in the process of fighting wits and courage with Kidd, Jiang Xia could enjoy solving puzzles without having to encounter those terrible murders, wonderful! Jiang Xia will definitely be very happy.
So Sonoko Suzuki decided to find Jiang Xia.
As soon as Jiang Xia heard the code name "Kid", he sighed in his heart. In his impression, when Kidd played in the early days, it was basically calm and there was no murder at all.
Until the back, Kidd's aura gradually couldn't hold back the growing Conan. When he stole, the murder cases increased a little.
The case of "Dark Stars" has no ghosts from beginning to end.
However, Jiang Xia pondered for a moment, but still did not refuse Suzuki Sonoko's invitation, trying to create a posture of "Jiang Xia will not refuse anyone who invites him to go out".
In this way, Sonoko Suzuki will find him more in the future, instead of spending time wondering "Will Jiang Xia accept the invitation?" If a project with a murder case was removed by mistake, Jiang Xia would feel at a loss.
…
The day before the theft soon arrives. Jiang Xia found the Rice Flower Museum according to the address sent to him by Suzuki Sonoko.
The protagonists are not in the hall, and it is said that they went to observe the terrain around.
Jiang Xia simply said hello to Chairman Suzuki, and then came to the display cabinet in anticipation of "You must be able to defend it!" and looked at the huge black pearl - the dark star.
In the theory of psychics, some objects that gather human wishes or obsessions contain energy that is called "energy core" by the defunct scholars, which can be fed to ghosts to upgrade.
Textbooks list some typical objects that harbor energy nuclei, usually antique utensils, or striking gems.
A year ago, Jiang Xia just entered this world. After landing, in addition to going to the cemetery hospital to look for ghosts and murderous spirits, he just went around museums or jewelry exhibitions, trying to find energy cores.
But at that time, Jiang Xia also failed to find the precious object with energy, just like the ghost could not be found.
A while ago, as Kudo Shinichi became Conan, Jiang Xia began to see ghosts again. He went to the museums around the world again, but unfortunately, he still couldn't find the energy core he wanted.
In the end, Jiang Xia gave up her efforts.
——The generation rate of ghosts and shikigami in this world is much higher than what he was used to before. The murderous aura is also very good: after the prisoners are exposed ~IndoMTL.com~ one by one will be very obedient to take off the murderous aura and go to the prison. Unlike the previous life, those who refused to admit it, fled in fear of sin... and even those who were keen to perish together.
Therefore, Jiang Xia quickly accepted this fact with the Buddhist mentality that there is always something to lose.
But yesterday, after receiving the invitation from Suzuki Sonoko, Jiang Xia had a whim, guessing that the treasures Kidd wanted to steal might be energy cores that he couldn't find anywhere.
After all, in Jiang Xia's impression, if Conan is the protagonist of this world, then Kidd is definitely the second character with the aura of the protagonist. If one of the two protagonists is in charge of ghosts and murderous aura, and the other is in charge of the energy core used for star promotion... it's actually very reasonable.
However, after seeing the dark stars up close, Jiang Xia was disappointed - he couldn't feel the energy from above.
...this seems to be a fake. And there is no energy nucleus in the whole museum.
The secret expectation failed to come true. Jiang Xia's motivation was only about 60% today, but now it has dropped to 1%. He sighed, and while everyone else was busy, no one paid attention to him, and planned to find a place to sit. Take a break.
Just after taking a few steps, three people suddenly entered the door. Jiang Xia glanced up, and unsurprisingly saw Mao Lilan, Suzuki Sonoko, and Conan—Maolilan and Suzuki Sonoko's best friends are more in love than Jin, and Conan's viscosity is also stronger than Jin.
