The Corpse Collector In Conan Chapter 394: You’re a playwright (together

  Chapter 394 You are a playwright (joint chapter)

   Facts have proved that the actions of Tiantu boss have had a little effect.

  ——Heihachi Mikami, the editor-in-chief of Astronomy Magazine, looked at the phone that couldn't get through, and remembered the bones in the mountains, his back was hairy: "This is all a mess, I won't accompany you!"

   said, turned his head and left.

   Jiang Xia glanced at the ghost on his lap, but did not stop him.

   Sure enough, after five minutes, the editor-in-chief came back bleak.

   This time, his face was ashen and he gestured irritably: "The tires are all deflated, all cars!"

   Xiaobai, who was lying on Jiang Xia's shoulders, was startled, then turned to look at Jiang Xia: Did the master drive another puppet to bite the tire?

   Jiang Xia pretended to straighten the clothes on his shoulders and pressed Xiaobai, who was suspicious of the probe, back.

   Of course he didn't do it this time, it was obviously the fault of Boss Tiantu.

  …

   Now the phone can't be used, whether it is to call the police or leave, you need a car.

  Rob remembered the truck he drove: "Our car is parked nearby and can help call the police."

The editor-in-chief of    has the spirit again: "The truck has more than one seat, take me down the mountain. I don't want to stay in this inexplicable place."

  His subordinate Zhao Erchuan didn't speak, but he also stood beside Rob, looking like he wanted to leave.

  Trucks...

   Jiang Xia looked at the people who wanted to leave, and the three shikigami on their legs—two Rob and one editor-in-chief—and remembered when he got off the truck just now, in order to prevent Rob from escaping, he went to The small piece of puppet clay that went into the keyhole didn't stop it.

   Anyway, they can't go without stopping them.

  To be precise, no one wants to leave today until all the ghosts are collected...

   Of course, if you know what you know, you still have to show it on your face.

  Jiang Xia stopped them when they went out: "No. There is evidence of suspected death information next to the corpse - there may be a murderer who killed Mr. Kono among you, so you should wait until the police arrive before leaving. Well."

   The editor-in-chief snorted coldly: "I'm innocent and I'm not afraid of investigation. When the police come, let them go to my house to find me. You are not qualified to detain me!"

   he said, leaving angrily like a grumpy old man annoyed by an anonymous sender.

   The editor-in-chief is actually not afraid of the police. After all, it had been a year since he pushed Kono down the mountain, and he believed that he had not left any evidence to convict him.

   Therefore, he was more afraid of the culprit who wrote the invitation letter to trick him into coming over than the group of police who had to tell evidence when they did things. Maybe that person was trying to get revenge on Kono.

   Rob glanced at the editor-in-chief hesitantly when he heard this.

   is also a murderer who has crossed a certain line, and he vaguely sees something wrong.

   But after hesitating for a moment, he left with the editor-in-chief and editor.

  ——The police force is limited. If the editor-in-chief and the editors run away in the chaos, the police will have to divert their energy to search for the escaped person in order to find the murderer who killed Kono.

   In this way, fewer police officers will be concentrated at the Spider Mansion, and it will be even more difficult to find out the real culprits who killed Shinichi Takeda and Akio Negishi.

   In addition, Rob plans to drive to the Spider Mansion and call the police. Counting the time, Takeda Shinichi's body should have been found by now. Going back now, maybe I can take advantage of the chaos to clean up the scene and further reduce the probability of my exposure.

  …

  Ai Haibara looked at the three people who were about to leave, and was a little worried at first.

   But soon, she looked up at Jiang Xia, who frowned slightly and seemed anxious, but actually did not take any action, and keenly felt that something was wrong.

  ...Although she has hardly seen Jiang Xia's beating scene, but when Hui Yuanai tried to communicate with a few children and told them not to be afraid of Jiang Xia and be a little more enthusiastic about Jiang Xia, she also inevitably heard from the children I read some stories about Jiang Xia's beating... ahem, brave deeds.

   If it was another detective, maybe there was nothing he could do about ordinary citizens who had to leave.

   But Jiangxia is different.

  Haihara Ai always felt that if Jiang Xia really wanted to stop him, the person who was arguing about leaving would be already lying on the ground by now.

   But Jiang Xia didn't move...

  Ai Haibara looked to the side.

   Seeing that no one was paying attention here, she couldn't help but whispered to Jiang Xia: "Do you have other plans?"

  Jiang Xia also whispered:

  "No. It's just that he's right, I really don't have the right to detain anyone."

  Haihara Ai: "..."

  ... Really, she doesn't believe it.

   After a while.

  Haihara Ai looked at the door, not surprised to see the three people who went out to drive and returned as they were.

   She silently raised her head and looked at Jiang Xia.

   Seeing Jiang Xia looking at the three people entering the door, he showed a slightly surprised look.

  Haihara Ai rolled her eyes half-moon: Well, there is a little bit of drama, but it's not a big problem. The detectives seem to have some similar habits. At least Jiang Xia has better acting skills than Conan. She is not embarrassed... She looked at the "Jiang Xia Observation Notes" in her heart, feeling that she had nothing to add, and nodded secretly.

   The three people who came back didn't look good.

  Rob has been looking down at the car keys.

   At this time, seeing that everyone else in the hotel was looking at them, he sighed: "The key can't be inserted, the key hole seems to be blocked by something."

   The editor-in-chief who left in a hurry looked ashen: "It must be the person who deflated the tire!"

  Rob's face was also ugly when he heard the words: "But the matter of us driving the truck to see the stars was decided on an ad hoc basis..."

   As he spoke, his voice became lower.

   Because he suddenly realized that his decision to drive the truck out tonight was not a temporary decision, but a long-term decision-in order to trigger the hanging man agency, plus an alibi.

   Rob couldn't help thinking, could it be that his murder was secretly observed by some existence unknowingly?

   Jiang Xia glanced at Rob's flustered look.

   In order to let this foreign friend stay nearby and don’t run into the mountains in the middle of the night, he kindly helped solve this problem:

  "It may be that the mastermind behind the scenes has been observing the corpse. After he noticed us, he ran to the truck and started to do something with the truck... It's really cunning."

   said, Jiang Xia relieved the maintenance of the little puppet clay stuck in the keyhole - since Rob has confirmed that the key cannot be used, then there is no need to spend murderous energy to maintain the puppet clay.

  …

   There is no way to leave, and no way to make phone calls. There are no other places to stay nearby.

   A group of people with different thoughts had to temporarily decide to stay in this hotel, planning to wait until dawn tomorrow, and then walk to the nearest house to borrow a phone.

   They each went back to their rooms, remembering the death message Kono had left behind that the Detective Boys had told them just now, and everyone tried to arrange them in unison.

  Three temporary guests entered Dr. A Li's suite temporarily.

   Jiang Xia, holding four long, two short and six matches, spent time sitting on the tatami in the living room. He successfully spent nearly an hour, and then exhausted himself, yawning as he swayed.

   He picked up ghosts all night last night. Although he drank a ghost mint in the early morning to replenish his energy, but now it is dark again, he has to sleep again, or have another ghost mint to refresh himself.

   But I'm not in a hurry now, I'm just a little sleepy now, not too tired. Moreover, he is not busy solving the case anyway, just find a suitable excuse to slow down...

Besides   , Ai Huihara, a habitual criminal who stayed up late, was also playing with a match that was folded into four lengths and two shorts on the table, simulating the death message left by Kono.

   She also covers her lips and yawns from time to time, and yawning seems to be easy to synchronize.

   So soon, Haibara Ai noticed Jiang Xia's abnormality.

   After yawning, she turned her head and stared at Jiang Xia suspiciously: "Are you sleepy?"

  Hai Yuanai remembers that Jiang Xia's work and rest have always been very healthy. Except for sneaking out in the middle of the night a few times a month, he would go to bed early to go to bed with his younger brothers. From the window of the doctor's kitchen, Jiang Xia's room was already turned off before eleven o'clock.

  Jiang Xia heard the neighbor's question, put his head in one hand and a match in the other, and replied casually:

  "I didn't sleep well - I ran into Conan on the car that came here last night, and had a murder case in the early morning, so I had to stay all night."

  Haihara Ai: "...?"

  The Detective Boys also watched silently.

   Several real and fake children have similar doubts at this time.

  The Youth Detective Team fell into deep thought: Judging from what you just said, how do you feel that Brother Jiang Xia is treating Conan as a **** of death? Isn't this brother Jiang Xia's own problem?

  … But having said that, Conan does always appear at the crime scene.

  No, wait, now that Conan is not there, there are bones at the foot of the mountain...

   Sure enough, Jiang Xia has a bigger problem.

   Only Haibara Ai fell into a higher level of contemplation.

   Although her thoughts were briefly synchronized with the Detective Boys, she quickly remembered another thing because she knew more.

  ——Before Conan became Conan, he was the famous detective "Kudou Shinichi" who often encountered murders.

   I heard that at that time, Kudo and Jiang Xia were not very familiar with each other, and Haibara Ai remembered that Jiang Xia had rarely encountered murders before... So, it turns out that Conan has a bigger problem.

   This time, when Conan was not there, Jiang Xia encountered a murder case... It should be that he just separated from Conan, and there was something bad on his body. Well, such as bad luck.

   Thinking of this, Hai Yuanai subconsciously stretched out her small hand and patted Jiang Xia's back a few times as if dusting off the dust.

   then looked at his sleepy appearance and asked: "Would you like to go to sleep for a while first? That death message... Anyway, everyone can't leave now, and it's still a while before dawn, so it's the same when you sleep."

   Jiang Xia shook his head. It's different, there are three shikigami that are still on other people's legs, and I can see that there will be a new one in the future... He gently refused: "There are still puzzles that have not been solved, so I can sleep if I want to. No."

   "Well..." Scientist Haiyuan Ai recalled his thoughts when he encountered the problem, nodded understandingly, and did not persuade him any more, but ran to the small refrigerator next to him and carefully selected.

   She picked up a can of coffee first.

   hesitated for a moment, put it down again, and held out a carton of milk instead.

  ...Although she can understand Jiang Xia's attitude of not wanting to sleep, but forcibly drinking coffee to wake up, she always feels unhealthy, and her efficiency is also worrying.

   It's better to replace it with milk.

  Milk has a little sleep aid effect, at least it is easier to fall asleep than coffee. Maybe after drinking it, Jiang Xia will fall asleep thinking about the problem, and then wake up a few hours later and solve the puzzle in a few seconds , Find the real culprit... This will not delay the case, and it will be good for the body.

  Haihara Ai thinks more and more, this is very good.

   She nodded secretly, picked up the milk and went out. Going to the store to borrow a cup and a microwave.

   Walking through the corridor and passing the second room on the right, Haibara Ai accidentally glanced in.

   and then startled.

   - The door to the room is open a crack, but no one seems to be in the room.

   She remembered that this was Er Chuan Zhao's room. It was so late, Er Chuan Zhao was not in the room, and the door was not locked. It looked like he was in a hurry to go out... What does he have to do?

  Haihara Ai gradually became a little puzzled.

   She hesitated for a moment, then let go, letting the milk in her hand roll to the door.

   Then she followed, pretended to pick up something, opened the door and took a look.

  The one-bedroom apartment of more than 20 square meters has an unobstructed view. There was indeed no one in the room, and the curtains were not closed.

  Haihara's mournful eyes swept across the room, and finally stopped at the window - this window was facing the back mountain.

   And at this time, there was a figure swaying and walking in the mountains... Etsuko Nonomiya!

  …what’s going on?

   If it were an impulsive child who was eager to pursue the truth, the child might have opened the window and jumped out now.

   And although Haibara Ai is occasionally a little reckless, but most of the time she has a good idea.

   She didn't alert the people outside, but picked up the carton of milk, ran back to the room, went straight to Jiang Xia, and said quickly, "I passed by Mr. Erchuan's room just now and saw the door was open, There's no one in the house—from the window there, I can see Miss Nonomiya walking in the woods."

   Yuan Shan and Ye, who were sleeping on the sofa, were awakened by the sound, sat up, and looked at the little girl in surprise.

   is obviously only a first-year child, how can she be more skilled than her when reporting the situation...

   Thinking about the situation just now, Yuan Shan and Ye found that this kid seemed to know Jiang Xia very well, and they understood again.

  ——It should be that he and Jiang Xia encountered corpses~IndoMTL.com~ were forced to cultivate this skill.

  ... It seems that behind every high school detective, there is a slowly transforming innocent police tool man. Thinking of this, Yuan Shan and Ye Momo touched their mobile phones, and the "1" and "0" buttons that were worn away, and looked at Haibara Ai with the kindness of looking at their companions.

   Jiang Xia got up immediately after hearing what Hui Yuanai said.

   Walking through the corridor and passing by Er Chuan Zhao's room, he looked through the window and glanced outside.

   Looking into the dark jungle, the figure of "Miss Nonomiya" that Haibara Ai said was no longer visible.

   And, after all the way to the front desk, a group of people discovered another weird thing.

  ——Not only Erchuan Hajime and Nonomiya. Boss Tiantu and Yukami Heihachi left the hotel at some point.

   Yuan Shan and Ye remembered the empty room and the equally empty hall, their faces turning blue.

   This kind of inattentiveness disappeared, and everyone else disappeared, leaving only her own plot, which reminded her of a certain kind of ghost story she had read before.
