The Corpse Collector In Conan Chapter 696: The end of the journey


“…”

Toru Amuro turned off the device smoothly, unscrewed it, and thought of a lot in a flash.

If the peripheral members were suddenly attacked after installing the equipment, the matter would be relatively simple—probably just a strange person passed by, tortured everyone hiding on the mountain, and then waved The sleeves are gone.

But what if... the recording equipment was not installed by the peripheral members.

Is it the enemy of Watanuki Chenzo? The people involved in the murder case five years ago? Or...is there someone else doing things for the organization?

A figure suddenly appeared in Toru Amuro's mind.

Matsuda Jinpei's face in a police school uniform and fluffy black natural curls.

After pausing for a moment, the face in his mind changed slightly, and slowly corrected to the mysterious person who called himself "Kurosawa Zuo".

... I suddenly remembered this because Toru Amuro remembered that something similar seemed to have happened in Toujin Forest—the murderer who killed the fake "Jiang Xia" was beaten up by Matsuda for no reason. If Kazami Yu didn't arrive in time at that time, he would probably have been beaten twice in a row.

And now, someone around was beaten for no reason... The victim was a peripheral member of the organization, and Watanuki Chenzo's younger brother. The murderer in the forest of the gods is of the same nature.

Toru Amuro: "..." Could it be that Matsuda has been following him until now?

Also, and more importantly, what about the tree-mounted recording equipment? Is Matsuda really connected with the organization?

…No, no conclusions can be drawn yet.

To figure this out, the first thing to determine is whether the equipment was installed by the peripheral members or by Matsuda. Otherwise everything is just unnecessary conjecture.

Toru Amuro jumped off the tree with the dismantled recording equipment, wanting to wake up the people on the ground immediately and ask about the situation.

However, although his "Toru Amuro" identity is fake, during the undercover period, this identity can be regarded as his "identity", so it is not easy to expose "Toru Amuro = Bourbon" to other people.

In the end, Toru Amuro could only hold back his temper and was going to send an email to inquire after a while.

Jiang Xia also scouted around, and walked back stepping on the dead leaves.

The crisp sound interrupted Amuro Toru's thoughts.

He looked at Jiang Xia, and Jiang Xia glanced at the recording equipment in his hand. It seems that he still remembered the matter of "trying to cover the vest for the boss", so Jiang Xia asked like a simple working detective: "Should I call the police?"

"It's okay, it's stopped." Toru Amuro lowered his voice, and shook the recording device in his hand towards Jiang Xia, indicating that this thing is not working at the moment, and they don't need to continue playing, "Leave here first."

On the way down the mountain, Toru Amuro took out his mobile phone and sent an email to the members of the organization who stayed near the hotel, asking them to come up and clean up the scene as soon as possible.

He himself and Jiang Xia chose a road that would not meet those people, and returned to the hotel.

The only ones who saw him and Jiang Xia just now were Miananjian Chensan and his two younger brothers. The three people didn't know the time after they fainted, and they could make up their own brains. When they lost consciousness, the two detectives ran out of battery, so they had to go down the mountain to find a place to call the police. —Anyway, Watanuki Chenzo and the others didn't know that the members of the organization also collapsed around the ground and needed a lot of time to clean up the aftermath. Moreover, the two sides will not communicate with each other. Mian Guanchen and the others will only stay in the hands of peripheral members for a short while, and will be transferred to other places soon. At that time, compared with the 5 billion yen lost due to Miananuki Tatsuzo's leak, indiscriminate detectives will naturally no longer be the focus of the problem.

Jiang Xia and Amuro Toru wandered around at the foot of the mountain, and waited for the peripheral members to remove all the people on the mountain and pack up the bones before returning to the hotel.

Then Toru Amuro returned to the room, checked and processed the recording, packaged it and sent it to the person in charge.

Jiang Xia sat opposite the coffee table, watching quietly.

When Toru Amuro closed the computer, stretched his waist, and looked like "let's call it a day", he couldn't help but ask, "So it's done?"

"Well. There are more professional people in charge of interrogation and aftermath. Our work is only intelligence and supervision." Toru Amuro responded, walked to the small refrigerator in the corner of the room, took out a can of cold beer, and threw it to A can of iced orange juice in Jiangxia.

Then he opened the can with a "bang", raised his head and took a sip comfortably, which was a small celebration.

It is not difficult to complete this organizational task that is more formal than actual. What Toru Amuro wants to celebrate is actually the end of another event...

He looked at the night outside the window, drank beer, and briefly enjoyed a leisurely adult time. Then turned around, intending to let Jiang Xia go back to his own room to rest.

But just looking at Jiang Xia, Toru Amuro suddenly noticed that Jiang Xia was looking down at the can of iced orange juice, feeling the water mist that condensed on the tank, and seemed a little lost.

"...?"

Toru Amuro was puzzled for a moment, and suddenly remembered something.

Speaking of which, I have only been out with Jiang Xia for a few days, and I have already been tortured by this rhythm of life. But Jiang Xia has lived a similar life for a long time, often encounters cases, and is disrupted by various murderers, but he never rejects solving cases.

... Could it be that only in this way did Jiang Xia find her value and sense of existence as a detective? Because only at this time can he completely immerse himself in the role of detective and temporarily break away from being a peripheral member of the organization?

Thinking of this, Toru Amuro reviewed it carefully. They found out that they encountered a little more cases than Jiang Xia usually encountered during their trip this time.

Jiang Xia may not have thought much about it~IndoMTL.com~but subconsciously combined this journey with the "case", so now that he heard that the journey is coming to an end, he reflexively feels lost.

"..." Thinking of this, Toru Amuro felt a little emotional.

If he has a lot of free time, he doesn't mind accompanying Jiang Xia to encounter a few more cases by chance.

But...but he is really busy, and he still has a lot of things to do, so he must try to maintain a healthy mental state...

Recalling my own situation a few days ago, Toru Amuro's invitation of "It's okay, we will go out together next time when I have time" was clearly on his lips, but he couldn't say it no matter what.

In the end, he just changed the topic with guilt and sent Jiang Xia back to the room.

All journeys should have an end, and this one certainly does. It's a pity, but it's time to end...
