The Corpse Collector In Conan Chapter 17: Your office looks great


On the way to repair the car, Jiang Xia remembered what happened during this time.

At present, he has encountered a ghost and a murderous aura that can be completely collected.

Both of these things have appeared recently, and both are related to the cases Jiang Xia saw in the comics.

In other words, if you want to pick up ghosts, you need to be exposed to more cases.

When it comes to murder cases, the best case collector is probably Conan himself.

But now, Conan lives in the Mori Detective Agency, so it's hard to kidnap him.

And Jiang Xia didn't want to be an apprentice to Kogoro Maori.

After all, he is now an organized laborer.

If he turns into a famous detective, maybe one day, his office will be organized as a useful tool... In short, it will be very annoying to Master.

Moreover, from the story of Yoko Kinoshita, even if Conan is not present, Jiang Xia can still pick up ghosts. Reaper primary school students are not a necessary condition for picking ghosts.

Jiang Xia thought for a moment and felt that it would be better to open a detective agency.

If I remember correctly, the "high school detectives" in this world are all good at attracting murder cases.

He happens to be a high school student too.

Maybe as long as you stack another detective buff, ghosts and murderous aura will come rolling in.

Just do it.

The day after repairing the car and returning home, Jiang Xia went to the Mihua Library.

Then I successfully found a popular science manual related to detectives on the bookshelf in the career area.

In his impression, although the island country stipulates that it is 20 years old, in fact, many things can be done from the age of 18.

For example, test various legal licenses, sign some purchase contracts alone, and watch some specific movies and games...

Jiang Xia flipped through the detective science manual and found that, just as he thought, he was 18 years old and could already be engaged in the detective industry.

However, looking further down, Jiang Xia saw another rule.

- To open a detective agency, you need to submit an application for opening to the Public Security Committee.

If the number is less than 20, an additional consent form from the legal guardian must be submitted.

Legal guardian.

emmm...

Jiang Xia thought about the two monuments of Jiang Xia's parents, as well as the guardian of a nominal tool that did not leave him with a certain contact information, and gradually lost his dream. His hand holding the pages loosened slightly, and the pages of the Detective Popular Science Handbook snapped shut.

The solemn and staid cover reappeared, as if mocking his innocence.

...... 18-year-old minors are still minors.

Is it only possible to find an adult to harm you as an apprentice?

Speaking of adults...

Jiang Xia thoughtfully picked up the detective manual and turned back to the front color page.

Just now, when the pages of the book were closed, he saw a name with some impression.

In all walks of life, it is necessary to have a meal.

For example, on the color pages of this manual, there are advertisements for several detective agencies.

Jiang Xia turned the pages along, and his eyes quickly stopped on one of the pages.

The photo shows a small but tasteful store.

On the signboard at the entrance of the store, "Amuro Detective Agency" is written impressively.

Jiang Xia stared at the word "An Shi" in the advertisement and fell into deep thought.

The surname Amuro is uncommon.

Put it together with "Detective", and it's easy to think of a person.

——Amuro Toru.

Amuro Toru is also a member of the Black Organization, and he is also a big guy with a code name.

Codenamed "Bourbon", good at gathering intelligence.

However, in fact, Toru Amuro is an undercover agent sent by the National Police Agency to organize, whose real name is Zero Valley, who is dedicated to the country.

If you can find a way to get into his office, you don't have to worry about the organization to make your own boss.

And if you think about it, if you can really get in with Bourbon, there are other benefits.

——During this time, Xue Li helped Jiang Xia stop a lot of murder and arson work.

But what Jiang Xia did is still not legal.

The identities of peripheral members do not have much secrecy at all, and they are prone to legal sanctions in the future.

But if you go to Amuro Toru... maybe there is a chance to mix into a fake red party.

The success rate is not very high.

But it's worth a try.

And the risk of trying is very low - Amuro is a police officer in the world of science, and even if he thinks he is suspicious, it is unlikely to kill him with a single shot.

In addition, even in order not to expose the identity of the police, Amuro Toru would not arrest an ordinary peripheral member who came to him.

Coupled with the affinity of psychics, he was born a bit higher than ordinary people, and Jiang Xia's luck has always been good.

This way, if I can get the red side's exemption gold medal...

The more Jiang Xia thought about it, the more he felt that the future was bright.

He borrowed the detective's manual.

…………

In the afternoon of the same day, Jiang Xia followed the address on the advertisement and found the Amuro Detective Agency.

As a result, when I got closer, there was a sign "closed" on the door.

...well, understandable.

Most shops have a "regular holiday", one or two days a week, maybe the regular holiday of the Amuro Detective Agency, unfortunately it is today.

It doesn't matter if I don't see anyone, I just went back and carefully worded it.

Jiang Xia went home calmly.

Go again the next day.

The "Closed" sign is still hanging there, unchanged.

...Two days in a row?

Jiang Xia stood silent for a moment in the swish cold wind, and condemned this disrespectful work attitude in his heart.

After condemning, I waited nearby for a while, but no one came to work.

Jiang Xia could only go home first.

It's been a week like this, and it's "closed" every time.

Jiang Xia looked at the location and felt distressed about the rent for Anshi.

But after thinking about it, I feel that there is nothing wrong with it - Amuro can only receive N salary by himself, and he still has two reliable employers who can reimburse him...

A week later, Jiang Xia habitually drove to the place, habitually glanced at the detective office, and habitually turned the motorcycle to leave.

After turning his head, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Jiang Xia turned around quickly.

Found that the lock hanging on the door was gone, and the sad "Closed" sign was gone.

Jiang Xia was a little moved when she saw the opening of the office.

There is a feeling that Zhuge Liang is finally caught at home.

Ten minutes later.

Jiang Xia sat on the fabric sofa in the office.

Amuro Toru, like a serious detective, brought a cup of tea, put a registration form in front of him, then sat across from him and smiled politely:

"Our firm is busy with work and may not be able to accept your entrustment. However, I will recommend other suitable firms to you based on your needs - the detectives in it are experts in solving related problems."

Jiang Xia: "..." Busy? Your firm is clearly out of business 99% of the time.

He picked up the pen and filled in his name, mobile phone number, and email address on the form. The rest of the commission is left blank, and the form is pushed back.

Amuro looked at the large blank column and stretched out his hand a little on it~IndoMTL.com~ Before he could speak, he suddenly heard the person on the opposite side say, "I didn't come to entrust me—I want to come here for a part-time job."

Amuro was startled.

After a moment, he picked up the registration form and threw it into the shredder next to him.

Then turned around to see the guest: "Sorry, we don't recruit people."

Saying that, Amuro Toru made a gesture toward the door that looked like "this way, please", but actually read "get out of here."

Jiang Xia sits on the sofa and doesn't move:

"But I feel like your store is very short-staffed - the door is closed several times when I pass by. But you still insist on advertising in various places, don't you think it's a waste."

While speaking, Jiang Xia put the borrowed detective manual on the coffee table and began to promote herself:

"My reasoning ability is very strong, and I have no salary requirements. You can pay at the minimum hourly rate."

Amuro stared at him silently for a while, then walked to the door and locked it with a click.

When he turned around again, he had a gun in his hand.

His expression also became dangerous, like a gin smelling a traitor.

Jiang Xia sat up subconsciously, his eyes swept across An Shitou.

Then I was very disappointed to find that, unlike Gin, Toru Amuro did not have a similar murderous aura.

The ghost baby on his shoulder also sighed.

Anshitou didn't have the ability to read minds, so he didn't know what Jiang Xia was thinking.

Seeing Jiang Xia's reaction, he only thought that his deterrence was effective.

So he continued: "About the waste you mentioned just now..." Amuro said in a cold and imposing voice, "If you can catch a thief with ulterior motives, it's actually worth it."
