The Corpse Collector In Conan Chapter 495: You look familiar


Conan: "..."

Xiao Lan is too attractive. She just nodded, not counting Amuro, so many people came to chat up... Conan had to temporarily stop staring at the male college student, rolled his eyes for half a month, and looked up at the newcomer.

Then slightly startled.

——Contrary to what he thought, the person who came over this time turned out to be a woman.

The woman is wearing a brown fleece, with long curly hair of the same color, and is slender.

She has her scarf pulled high and a pair of goggles on her face.

After looking at the few people gathered here, the woman pulled the goggles over her head, stopped her eyes on Jiang Xia, and looked at it carefully: "You look familiar, I seem to have seen you somewhere."

Conan: "...?"

Jiang Xia hadn't smiled and nodded yet, why did she hook someone up to start a conversation? It's still such a traditional conversation...

However, speaking of it, he looked very familiar with the big sister who came to chat with her.

After a second, Conan suddenly recognized: "You are Torokura Etsuko?!"

Maolilan knows almost all famous people. As soon as she heard the name, she approached with surprise: "Are you the mystery novelist? I often read your and your husband's books!"

Tokura Etsuko is a cutting-edge novelist who specializes in writing romantic mystery novels.

Her husband, Daisuke Torakura, is a popular writer in the horror world.

As a loyal fan of mystery novels, Conan has read almost all mystery novels on the market. Among them, the works of Etsuko Torokura are of the best quality.

Suddenly seeing the author at this time, while he was excited, he suddenly remembered something.

When Maurilan and Torokura Etsuko were talking.

Conan took the opportunity to pull Jiang Xia and whispered: "She has written some stories about killers, and the techniques used in them are very subtle. Now we are standing with the client, and she suddenly ran over to talk to us... "

In short, although Huokura Etsuko is not very suspicious, the number of "Silver Fox" suspects has increased.

——After all, it's a matter of life. You should politely doubt anyone who sees it. This is what a detective should do.

Although Hukura Etsuko is not short of money, it seems that it is not unreasonable for the novelist Mozheng to practice killing methods himself, or to be under too much pressure and part-time as a killer for entertainment...

If you have to say it, this can even be linked to the previous sniping - killing the client while climbing the mountain can get double the reward, but the day before yesterday, Yinhu started sniping in the city, which may be because of her Not short of money, but just experiencing the fun of killing.

... Of course, this is only a conclusion drawn "without letting go of any possibility".

Actually, compared to Hukura Etsuko...

Conan turned his eyes and landed again precisely on the male college student who followed the client to talk to him. He nodded secretly:

Compared to the elegant Torokura Etsuko, this guy is really worth noting...

……

Etsuko Torokura realized that this was an unwelcome question after being interrupted by her "familiar" statement, so she stopped asking.

But she still glanced at Jiang Xia from time to time, thinking about who this young man wearing a mask and hat was and where she had seen it.

……

Mao Lilan suddenly talked to Hucang Yuezi just now. On the one hand, she really liked her novels, and on the other hand, it was also to distract from the "I seem to have seen you somewhere" that she said to Jiang Xia.

——Jiang Xia usually appears in newspapers, and even appeared on some variety shows related to detectives. Hucang Yuezi should have seen him in photos or on the screen, so he felt that Jiang Xia was familiar.

In other words, if we continue to talk about this issue, Jiang Xia's identity as a detective will definitely be exposed.

And if the silver fox happened to be hiding around and saw this scene, then he would definitely be more vigilant, his actions would be more subtle, and he might even strike first, trying to get rid of the obstacle of Jiang Xia...

At this time, seeing Hucang Yuezi not continuing the topic, Mao Lilan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned to the other side secretly, and with the help of her body, she erected a scissors hand, a symbol of victory, towards Jiang Xia, and suddenly had a sense of accomplishment of "becoming a detective's witty assistant".

Jiang Xia could only reply a "V" when Hucang Yuezi was not looking here, pretending that he was also very motivated.

...one and two are so aggressive, it looks like he's paddling.

However, after glancing at An Shitou, who was even more silent than him, Jiang Xia calmed down again.

- Here's a more paddling one.

My work attitude is in the middle, so it's not a big problem.

……

Not long after, the staff of the mountain management office told them that the facilities and supplies of the rest station had been confirmed, and they could start climbing.

Jiang Xia identified the direction and set foot on the mountain road with everyone.

After walking for a while, a couple hurriedly chased after him.

Unlike leisurely climbers, these two trot all the way up the mountain.

At this point, they turned the corner and saw Jiang Xia and others in front of them~IndoMTL.com~ before slowing down their pace, carrying heavy backpacks, looking around and climbing the mountain like normal travelers.

But on closer inspection, the behavior of the two is very different from that of ordinary tourists - ordinary tourists look around, mostly to enjoy the scenery.

The expression of this couple is tense, and they will be alert at the slightest disturbance, and they are very suspicious no matter how they look at it.

Maolilan, who is full of "catch the killer", is inevitably a little excited.

She glanced back, approached Jiang Xia and whispered:

"Speaking of which, many girls like to use the cute code name 'Silver Fox'. And Mr. Amuro said that the gender of the silver fox is still unclear - perhaps this is actually because there are two people in the silver fox. , Sometimes it's a man who commits the crime, and sometimes it's a woman, so there are such rumors?"

...that makes sense.

Jiang Xia nodded patiently and agreed: "Mmm, that makes sense. I'll observe them later."

...Although he remembered that the couple behind him was not a silver fox, compared to when he perfunctory Conan just now, this time Jiang Xia's "observation" seemed a lot more sincere.

In the space between his words, he even glanced back. His gaze stopped slightly on the couple's calf.

The couple behind them sensed the sight and stared sharply. Then he hurriedly lowered his head and burrowed into his way.

As a result, even Toru Amuro and Conan's attention gradually focused on the two people behind them - the expressions of the couples looked really wrong.

……

After the relatively flat road at the foot of the mountain, the road in the middle suddenly became steep.

——On the steep cliff, some large rocks protrude like steps, spiraling up along the cliff, this is the next way to go.

A row of hemp ropes is nailed to the mountain so that tourists can grab them to climb.

…this seems like a great place to do a plot.
