The Corpse Collector In Conan Chapter 159: There is no conflict between materialism and prayer
Sonoko Suzuki failed to take her little friend away - the landline in the Yotsui family's villa didn't work at all, it seemed to be just a decoration.
And just now, when they came to look for the phone, they found that the light in a corridor of Yotsui's house was broken.
This made Suzuki Sonoko pondered, and even a little sympathetic - it seems that it is not easy for the Yotsui family. The birthday party has invited so many people, and it was so beautiful, but behind the scenes, he was so poor that he couldn't afford the phone bill...
Unable to make a phone call, several people had to go back to the living room first. Anyway, until the next morning at the latest, Chairman Yotsui will send a car to pick him up.
Jiang Xia walked downstairs with the other three.
In the hall downstairs, Reika Yotsui and her suitors are sitting at a table, playing cards.
Jiang Xia took a look at the past, and gradually put this group of people with obvious characteristics on the number. The names of the suitors are also very distinctive. Ichiji Takashi, Nikaidou Yuji, Mifune Takuya, Gojo Osamu, Rokuda Shogi - just looking at this huge number, more than one person will die tonight.
Sijing Lihua was holding a handful of cards. Seeing Jiang Xia and the others approaching, she casually invited: "Are you playing?"
Jiang Xia thinks it's ok, he just needs to get a little bit of anecdotes from this group of people, so that it can be reasonably spoiled later.
The table is large, and the figures sit in a circle, with spaces around everyone.
Jiang Xia picked up the stool beside him, walked over to Yi Zhilong who was full of murderous aura, and sat down—the environment here was very comfortable for psychics.
Suzuki Sonoko doesn't want to play with Yotsui Reika and her harem.
But seeing that Jiang Xia had integrated into it in seconds, she silently swallowed her refusal and went to drag the stool.
Both of them had joined, and of course Maurilan followed. Not to mention Conan, he didn't have the right to choose, he didn't even touch the cards, and he was regarded as an accessory of Mao Lilan.
The scene turns into a group of people playing cards together.
On the way to the fight, at the end of the round, Yotsui Lihua felt that the dress she was wearing was not very convenient, so she went back to the house to change into her regular clothes.
The others sat at the table, chatting and waiting for her.
A lot of information came out while chatting—this group of people, including Reika Yotsui, used to be members of the yacht club and often went out diving and fishing together.
The word "before" is used in a subtle way, as if everyone has now withdrawn.
Suzuki Sonoko nodded unconcernedly: I understand, it should be that the Yotsui family is in financial difficulties and cannot afford to repair the yacht, and of course the club cannot maintain it.
Conan always feels that there is something else hidden.
He was about to ask, but at this time, a man with a ponytail took the initiative to plant the flag: "Yeah, that time was really beautiful... It's a pity that such a tragedy happened two years ago." /
The others were startled and hurriedly stopped the conversation. They made a pact not to mention the incident again.
Conan's expression changed slightly. He couldn't help but glance at Jiang Xia, and he had some bad premonitions in his heart - I don't know if it was a coincidence or what. Things like that can easily lead to bad things happening.
But... the world is scientific, no matter how coincidental it looks, it's just a pure coincidence, it doesn't matter if Jiang Xia is present or not. Yes, it must be so.
Conan recited the theory of materialism several times in his heart, but he still felt a little false.
In the end, I had to pray secretly, hoping that tonight would be a Christmas Eve.
…
The digital harem refused to reveal the details, so Jiang Xia did not ask any further questions.
And he wasn't curious either. With spoilers in hand, Jiang Xia knew what that mysterious "tragedy" meant.
——Two years ago, the members of the yacht club suffered an unexpected storm and were separated from Rika Yotsui. At that time, a girl named Yaeko Nanao went to rescue Yotsui Reika alone, but was robbed of her life jacket by Yotsui Reika and Nikaidou and died tragically in the sea.
Takashi Ichiji likes Yaeko Nanao, and he guesses the situation and decides to avenge his love.
At the same time, because Nikaidou and Yotsui Reika shared this disgraceful past, Nikaidou privately threatened Yotsui Reika to choose him as her husband.
…
Under the obstruction of other people, the ponytail man finally did not say this "tragedy".
But the old members of the yacht club knew that after experiencing this episode, the atmosphere in the living room inevitably became dull.
The digital harem lost their minds to play cards, and only then did they realize that one person was missing.
They looked at their watches: "Why hasn't the eldest come down yet?" How long does it take to change clothes?
The maid, Granny Mi, stood up: "I'll go up and have a look."
Five minutes later.
The elderly woman walked back in a daze: "...the eldest miss is not in the room."
"...Oh!" A young talent had a whim~IndoMTL.com~ guessed that this situation happened because Yotsui Reika felt that she was being left out, so she took the initiative to hide and wait for them to go. Looking for - this is a wonderful opportunity to improve your favorability, marry Sijing Lihua, take over the Sijing Group, and reach the pinnacle of life...
He jumped up: "I'll go look for it!"
When the others were stunned, they quickly reacted, shouting "I'm going too!" "Wait for me!" and chasing after them.
Jiang Xia looked at their backs, hesitated for a moment, and did not get up.
He didn't come to choose a son-in-law today, and he didn't know Sijing Lihua well. It would seem a little abnormal to follow him now.
And... those people will have to come back here later anyway.
——If I remember correctly, although Lihua Sijing is still in the villa, she has been stunned and has been hidden for slaughter, so it is difficult to find her easily.
Sure enough, ten minutes later, the digital harem ran back in a chaotic manner.
This time, they finally looked a little more serious - after a lot of searching, they couldn't find Yotsui Reika.
