The Corpse Collector In Conan Chapter 264: Catch a lucky detective as a puzzle tool
Conan was stared at by him, gradually silenced, and began to feel a little guilty. Could it be that this excuse is too perfunctory?
Amuro looked at Conan for a while, then silently retracted his gaze.
...he seems to have found the cause of the puncture.
But soon, Toru Amuro felt that this was not rigorous enough--Last time, when he passed the temple where there was a foggy dog, Conan was obviously not in his car, and only Jiang Xia was present.
On the return trip, Conan was indeed there.
...No, why did he think about this kind of thing seriously. Amuro quickly interrupted his thoughts.
Believe in science, the world is materialistic, how can there be such a strange "where the tire blows out" constitution, nonsense.
As he corrects his worldview, he gets out of the car, intending to change the spare tire.
After walking around the car, he opened the trunk lid, and Toru Amuro's movements paused slightly.
…the spare tire is punctured.
Familiar location, familiar tooth marks.
Amuro stared faintly at the opening, thinking he would be surprised.
But in fact, when he saw the brand-new broken tire at this time, he actually had a feeling of "as expected". I even have a dream: the cracks are neater than before, and the unknown creature that gnawed on his tires seems to have sharper teeth than before...
At this point, Amuro can't help but miss his metal tire case.
Last time, on the way back with Jiang Xia and the others, Amuro made up his mind to order a box to protect the spare tire, but it was delayed and forgotten.
Tsk, this time it has to be on the agenda. After it's done, you don't have to take it with you every day - when you think you will meet Jiang Xia and his friends, just put the metal box in the car.
Conan saw Toru Amuro standing in front of the trunk, not moving for a long time, he wondered: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Xia also got out of the car and went around to the trunk. He looked inside and was stunned: "Why is it like this again, in your car..."
"No mice." Amuro replied with a blank expression, "No squirrels, wild cats, woodpeckers, or anything like that."
"Um..." You are so skilled.
After returning home last time, Anshi asked someone to carefully inspect the car, and even took it apart to look at it, but no animals were found, and there were no traces of animals moving.
...what the **** is biting his tire.
But at this point, Amuro has no other way than to find someone to tow the truck.
He takes out his phone, intending to dial.
But press the bright screen to see. Well, no signal.
Conan had already jumped out of the car and started looking around.
At this time, he pointed to the villa dozens of meters away, which Jiang Xia had been staring at for a long time: "There seems to be someone living there, let's borrow their landline and use it."
Amuro couldn't help but glanced at him again, and felt that this line was also very familiar.
Jiang Xia sighed next to him and agreed for An Shitou: "That's the only way to go."
……
The villa in the woods looks a few years old, but there is not much dust on the outside, and the shrubs and grasses at the door are neat. It seems that it has been repaired recently. It is probably not an abandoned villa, but inhabited. .
The decoration of the villa is somewhat special. There are three steps at the door, and handrails are installed along the steps.
At the end of the armrest on the right, there is a tiger sculpture the size of a palm, but the left is empty, nothing is placed, and there are several holes drilled in the edge.
Haihara Ai is about as tall as those holes.
When a group of people came to knock on the door, she passed the handrail and backed away, took a picture of the small hole in the handrail, and raised her hand to straighten her hair.
As soon as she looked up and saw Jiang Xia was looking at her, Hui Yuanai froze, cleared her throat uncomfortably, and explained in a low voice, "There's a mirror in here." I couldn't help but take a look...
Jiang Xia looked at the tiger on the armrest, and then at the lion title ring on the gate, and the memory touched. No wonder there was murder in the house. He remembered what happened.
Amuro Toru has also arrived at the door. Holding the animal-faced ring, he tapped it a few times unskillfully, obviously not suitable for this rare decoration style.
There are some trivial and panicked noises in the room, and there are people inside.
After that, it took another minute or two before someone finally came to open the door.
The owner is a fat man with a goatee.
He opened the door a crack, revealing only one head, frowning, very vigilant, and didn't mean to invite everyone in, just wanted to send people away as soon as possible.
Just as he was about to speak, the goatee saw Jiang Xia.
His words of rushing people stopped, and his expression flashed many changes in an instant - he was jealous, murderous, and he was also jealous of Jiang Xia's ability to solve puzzles and solve cases.
Because the expressions are too complicated ~IndoMTL.com~ these emotions cannot be interpreted at a glance.
However, his unusual reaction made Toru Amuro and Conan's original doubtful attitude gradually turned into suspicion.
Jiang Xia looked at the little old man at the door with a bad expression, and then looked at the murderous aura that suddenly increased on him, and his tone became gentle: "Our car passed by here, and we accidentally punctured the tire. I want to borrow it from you. Don't know if it's convenient now?"
"...You wait." The goatee rolled his eyes and slammed the door shut.
Wait for another five minutes.
When the door was opened again, the goatee's smile was much warmer. Next to him was a mid-point man.
The man in the middle, who appears to be injured in his right hand and is in a cast from elbow to fingertips, is said to be the younger brother of the goatee.
The two of them smirked professionally and invited Jiang Xia and the others to enter the house, while saying, "This house is our grandfather's relic. I just took over and I haven't had time to buy anything. I don't have a landline, but I can lend my car to me. You, as long as...
"You can do me a little favor."
Speaking of which, he twists his thumb and forefinger to signal that it's just a small request.
Jiang Xia looked at the murderous aura of the pair of "brothers" and nodded in agreement.
The eyes of the goatee and the center-pointed man immediately heated up, and they began to tell Jiang Xia their troubles.
In the process of speaking, Amuro's eyes turned slightly, and he slapped the plastered right hand of the man in the middle, and quickly slid away.
When the brothers went to make tea and get refreshments in the living room, he whispered to Jiang Xia, "The plaster on that man's hand is not in the right shape."
Jiang Xia nodded.
The man in the middle is actually holding a mini pistol in his right hand, which is covered with bandages and casts.
In Jiang Xia's impression, these two were not the real owners, but members of a robber group called "Goblin".
