The Corpse Collector In Conan: One thousand three hundred and ninety-one [Okiya Subaru, come to be a younger brother]


There is a wooden coffin in the center of the hall, with a huge lock hanging on it, and some burned candles are placed in the lampstands on both sides.

There is only one flashlight for lighting, which is really shabby.

Jiang Xia took out the lighter and lit the candles on both sides.

The gloomy candlelight flickered, and the passage and wooden coffin were dyed with a faint yellow layer, and the environment suddenly became very atmospheric. Jiang Xia nodded slightly in satisfaction.

The warm light dispelled the darkness, Kasaka Natsumi finally regained her senses. She stepped up the steps carefully and came to the wooden coffin, as if she had guessed something, her heart beat violently.

"This lock is really big." "White Bird Police Department" weighed the lock, looked at the keyhole, feeling a little itchy, and instinctively wanted to challenge it.

But before he took out the lockpicking tool, Jiang Xia turned his head and looked at Kasaka Natsumi: "You took it out with the drawing before, it seems to have a key?"

"Ah, yes!" Kasaka Natsumi came back to her senses, hurriedly opened the bag, and took out a huge key from it.

Kidd: "..."

… Forget it, it will be the same if you try again later.

He stepped aside as if nothing had happened, holding a flashlight to help Natsumi Kasaka illuminate, looking like a normal good policeman.

Natsumi Kasaka picked up the lock, put in the key and turned it, and with a click, the lock was opened.

She herself was a little surprised: "It turns out to be the key here."

"Open the coffin and take a look?"

Although lifting the coffin without authorization seems to be impolite to the deceased. But now they have no idea what's inside, maybe it's just an empty coffin.

Kasaka Natsumi then nodded: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

Jiang Xia was the closest. He walked over, looked at the heavy dusty coffin lid, and suddenly missed the vodka in the distance.

Jiang Xia: "..." It's nice to have a younger brother, for example, it can come in handy at times like this... It's a pity that Matsuda Jinping already has the status of "Uzo", and it's okay to use it to blame, but usually not It's easy to bring it out as a coolie to open the coffin. It would be great if there was one more "assistant" on the bright side.

Although he borrowed vodka as an assistant, this guy's identity is obviously not visible, he can only be tricked out occasionally to squeeze ice cream, and it is impossible to form a team every day.

Thinking about it, a face suddenly appeared in Jiang Xia's mind: squinting eyes, light-colored hair, and a professional field that overlaps with vodka—the universal graduate student who is gradually awakening his event physique, Okiya Subaru.

Jiang Xia: "..." It's a pity that this person has already hooked up with Akai Shuichi.

But after thinking about it again, it doesn't matter what comes first, first served, when it comes to accepting younger brothers. And doesn't Akai Shuichi already have a loyal fbi brother? This graduate student should not be of much use to him...

While distracted, he and the people next to him lifted up the coffin lid vigorously and pushed it aside.

The flashlight shone in, reflecting a skeleton lying quietly in the coffin.

The skeleton is wearing rotting clothes. After a hundred years, the people and fabrics are as old as a handful of dirt. Only the chest of the skeleton is dazzling - there is a red Easter egg with a shell full of gems, It is very similar to the egg in Suzuki's house.

"Egg of memory! Another egg of memory on the blueprint!"

The ambassador was agitated, followed him to remember something, looked at the corpse, and asked Kasaka Natsumi: "This is your great-grandfather?"

Kasaka Natsumi shook her head: "It should be my great-grandmother—the family cemetery in Yokosuka, only my great-grandfather's remains. Maybe because my great-grandmother was a foreigner, she couldn't be buried in the family cemetery. I also I wondered where my great-grandmother's body went, but I didn't expect..." It was always hidden under the castle.

She stretched out her hand and carefully picked up the "memory egg" on the chest of the corpse.

The shell of the egg is decorated with rose-shaped gemstones and inlaid with golden branches, which is extremely gorgeous.

But the moment she picked it up, Kasaka Natsumi was slightly taken aback—compared with the simple "memory egg" in Suzuki's house, although this egg is a circle larger, it seems to be lighter a lot of.

Jiang Xia took the egg in her hand, opened the top half, and looked inside.

Art dealers and ambassadors also came over and looked inside excitedly.

Then froze for a moment.

——Inside the easter egg, there is nothing.

The egg that was carefully hidden in the underground coffin was actually just an empty eggshell.

"Inside the other egg of memory is the golden statue of the emperor's family. How could this one be so empty? Could it be that the gems on the shell of that egg were sold to build a castle, and the inside of this one was sold? The golden statue of the old one?" The art dealer slapped his thigh in grief, "It's better to sell the whole one! At least then both of them are complete, and I can..."

Jiang Xia was so quarreled by him, she backed away, and interrupted politely: "The two eggs are one big and one small, and the big one has a groove at the bottom, maybe there is nothing in it, it was designed Became the form of Russian nesting dolls."

"Matryoshka?" The art dealer was a little far away from his childhood, and it took a few seconds to remember, "Is it the kind of wooden doll that is nested one by one with smaller toys inside after it is opened?"

Jiang Xia nodded.

The ambassador also understood, and he pointed to the bottom of the eggshell: "So the groove here is not because the original thing has been taken away, but it has been carved in advance to put another egg in?  … ...Unfortunately, the egg is not there, otherwise it can be combined and see what effect it has."

Beside, the "White Bird Police Department" suddenly smiled when he heard this sentence.

"I have long thought that such a thing might happen, so..." He reached into his bag and took out an egg naturally, "I asked Chairman Suzuki to borrow it. "

Jiang Xia turned to look at him, thought for a while, and showed a little suspicious look.

Almost at the same time, Conan's eyes also fell on the "White Bird Police Department": "..." This kind of thing has been expected for a long time... Can the White Bird Police Department have such a long-term vision?

Either this police department wants to play "memory egg~IndoMTL.com~ or...

Conan suddenly remembered the missing Kidd.

——If it was true that Kidd fell from the air the night before yesterday after being plotted against by "School Bing", then he certainly wouldn't have just lost in such a dismal manner.

Perhaps at this time, not only the unknown "Shi Kaobing" was mixed in the crowd, but also Kidd, who was good at disguise.

Thinking of this, Conan subconsciously looked up at Jiang Xia.

I saw that Jiang Xia was also looking at the "White Bird Police Department" meaningfully, as if he had doubts about him.

This made Conan more confident in his judgment. At the same time, he couldn't help itching his hands, and wanted Jiang Xia to grab the face of the "White Bird Police Department" to see if there was a layer of disguise on it-of course, he wanted to solve the mystery by himself, but unfortunately he was a bit tall The gap cannot reach the face of the "Shiratori Police Department".
