The Corpse Collector In Conan Chapter 69: Kudo’s battle of wits and bravery


According to the unwritten rules of this world, whoever reasoned, whoever made it, would prove it—the detective here enjoys the privilege of wandering around the scene of the crime, so correspondingly, there are a lot of things to do.

The detectives that the Mumu Police Department has encountered in the past have always done this.

However, this time, when he adjusted the stopwatch and was about to time Jiang Xia, he heard Jiang Xia politely refuse: "It is not necessary."

The Mumu Police Department stopped: "Huh?"

Jiang Xia didn't want to run, because this incident would not help solve the case.

He then glanced at the shikigami on the host's lap, looked at the window again, and fast-forwarded skillfully: "The murderer doesn't need to come to this room in person, he just needs to be in a room upstairs to lure The deceased sticks his head out and shoots down."

After speaking, Jiang Xia pointed to the blood-splattered window and the neatly broken bloodstain on the upper window frame: "After firing the gun, throw the gun along the window, so that when the body falls, the window will naturally buckle. Then, by leaving bullet marks in the room in advance, it can be faked that the murderer was standing in the room and shooting."

The host stood aside, his face unpredictable. He suddenly had hair behind him, suspecting that when he committed the crime, Jiang Xia actually followed behind him and witnessed everything.

Jiang Xia spoke a little too quickly. Some people understood the process, while others didn't.

However, the next step is still very clear.

The Mumu Police Department digested it for a while, and then brought in the police officers from the forensic department and asked them to check the reaction of gunpowder smoke at the corresponding window in turn from this floor up.

Soon, obvious gunpowder residues were detected on the seventh floor - that's where the actual shooting took place.

And if I want to go from the studio on the ninth floor to the warehouse on the seventh floor, four minutes is more than enough.

The host's "alibi" is gone with a snap.

He wanted to continue to argue, but at this point...he didn't know what else to say.

Jiang Xia almost stole his murder script and spread it out in front of everyone... The host didn't expect this situation at all.

The latter thing is even simpler.

Although the seventh floor is very close to the studio, 4 minutes is still not enough. If the host opened fire at that time, he would definitely be able to detect the reaction of gunpowder smoke, but if he made a disguise and the time was so urgent, his armor was difficult to hide, just look for it along the road, you can get a powerful evidence of.

When the host was staring at a group of police officers, squatting with his head in the corner to grow mushrooms, Takagi was in the fire box on the 8th floor and found the raincoat and Gloves.

Next, as long as these physical evidences are identified, the murderer can be identified. However, judging from the host's reaction, the result should be less suspenseful.

The case jumps to the finale with one click again.

The police officers looked at Jiang Xia and became very kind. Although this little brother always encounters murder cases, he solves cases quickly. Who doesn't like working hours shorter.

The Mumu Police Department comfortably backed their hands and slapped their backs, asking their subordinates to bring the suspect and physical evidence back to the police station.

He himself, will continue to deal with the matter that an old friend asked him to help investigate - the wife of a generation of Kudo's brother is gone.

Kudo Yukiko has just been missing for a few hours, and the evidence of the disappearance is just a phone call, which is not enough for filing a case.

But Yusaku Kudo seems to take this matter seriously, so the Meguro Police Department plans to help him find it in private.

However, before leaving the building of Nippon TV Station, the Mumu Police Department accidentally glanced into the crowd and saw a familiar figure.

——The woman was wearing a sun hat and sunglasses, covering her face, but the Muki police department took a closer look and always felt that the man looked a lot like Yukiko Kudo, and he immediately ran over.

However, there were a lot of people crowding around to watch the fun.

By the time the Mumu police arrived, the woman was gone.

The Mumu Police Department touched the back of his head suspiciously, just at this moment, a call came in.

He glanced at the caller ID and picked it up: "Hello? Kudo. Oh, I haven't had time yet, but I just saw a person who looks a lot like your wife, but the scene was messy, and I couldn't see it clearly. Huh? I Now selling TV in Japan. There's a murder here..."

Jiang Xia, who was passing by, froze slightly when she heard the call.

But quickly calmed down.

...He just said hello to the neighbor aunt when he passed by, and then talked about his itinerary for today.

Jiang Xia took a few seconds to soothe her conscience and walked back to the backstage as if nothing had happened.

Yoko Kinoshita also has an evening show. After cleaning up the mess here, she regretfully separated from Jiang Xia.

Kudo Yukiko and Jiang Xia went downstairs together. Halfway through, she remembered something and her eyes fluttered.

When she reached the entrance of the TV station and saw two people, one large and one small, staring at her resentfully, Yukiko Kudo's footsteps froze.

She smiled awkwardly and patted Jiang Xia: "Go back first."

Jiang Xia responded, nodded at Kudo and his son, got a polite response, and left.

Kudo Yukiko looked at the father and son who had been looking for her all afternoon, and pressed the brim of her hat with a guilty conscience.

Before, Jiang Xia started recording the show, and she sat in the auditorium. After the two were separated for a while like this, Yukiko Kudo finally remembered her "real business".

But at that time, the show had already started recording, and she had promised to stay for Jiang Xia as a group of relatives and friends. At this time, she turned her head and left, always feeling like she was going back on her word and was not very kind...

The guilty Yuxizi had an idea and found a suitable excuse for herself.

——The doctor said that the members of the black-clothed organization gave Shinichi a stick on the back of his head as soon as they saw him.

She and her husband couldn't do this kind of cruelty to their son, who is so smart. If things go on like this, maybe Xinyi will find that these two "organization members" are not at all in the face of tossing bear children. non-violence, which in turn casts doubt on their true identities.

And once the son sees through, their fake kidnapping becomes a farce, and the son cannot realize the danger of the organization.

So, it's better to make a mistake and change the route - I suddenly disappeared.

It's also an opportunity to show my son how dangerous his situation is. It just so happens that the father and son usually solve a lot of cases, and their brains are bigger than the other...

Outside the Nikkei TV building, Yukiko Kudo faced the other two Kudos who were full of resentment, and bravely moved out her preconceived remarks.

Kudo Yusaku "..." for a long time, and finally, he looked at his wife who was trying to get through the game, sighed, and decided to cooperate with her temporarily, and then talk to her about the issue of losing contact without authorization.

So Kudo Yusaku turned to Conan: "That's right~IndoMTL.com~ Have you ever thought about it, if you stay here, once discovered by that organization, the people around you will be life-threatening - just like today's Just like your mother."

However, Conan was not persuaded at all, he looked at Kudo Yukiko speechlessly: "You must have followed Jiang Xia first, and then you remembered that I was still thrown in the house, so I'm making up this excuse... Anyway... Leave me alone, I won't leave here!"

…………

Jiang Xia didn't overhear the Kudo family's argument and returned home with his newly picked up shikigami.

A few days later, after seeing Conan running away from Dr. A Li's house again, Jiang Xia was completely relieved - the case collector is still there, so he doesn't have to think about whether he should go to the United States to find people if he can't find ghosts in the future. question.

After the live broadcast of the incident, Jiang Xia's reputation in the detective world increased again, because a genius photographer broadcasted the crime-solving content on the live broadcast without authorization.

Due to the smooth process of solving the case, some people suspect that this is a script written in advance, or some kind of "overtime special program".

However, with the news that the host was arrested and the producer was killed the next day, this kind of conjecture faded away completely - the host and producer are both celebrities, and it's really not a good idea to be arrested for the sake of the show reality.

However, even though his prestige has increased, Jiang Xia still hasn't received the mysterious requests from far away that he can pick up a lot of souls after going to the appointment.

Jiang Xia once doubted whether the commission was attracted by Conan to Kogoro Mouri.

However, using Yoko Kinoshita as an excuse, he sneaked to Mouri Kogoro's detective agency to investigate a few times, but found that Mouri Kogoro did not receive any decent entrustment.

It seems that it is not that the prestige is not enough, but the time has not come...
