Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 131 Don’t follow me. Please vote ()

After Ikemura Koe became murderous towards her husband, he began to look for a suitable detective.

She planned to make her husband faint in the study, pretend that the study was a "secret room", then lead the detective into the house, and secretly stab her husband to death with a poisonous needle.

At that time, the detectives would definitely not have thought that she dared to kill someone in front of her, and would have thought that this was a secret room murder case. Eliminate her suspicion.

…

So a while ago, Ikemura Koe began to contact detectives privately under the pretext of "investigating his daughter-in-law."

During this period, she heard a friend recommend Jiang Xia, so she went to the detective agency where Jiang Xia worked to check out the situation.

Originally, considering that Jiang Xia was so young and had very little detective qualifications, Ikemura Kōjiang was very optimistic about him.

However, when his best friend was consulting, Ikemura Koji sat beside him and flipped through a collection of Jiang Xia's case clippings. The more he read, the more frightened he became.

Judging from the reports, Jiang Xia solves cases very quickly and can often hit the point right from the start. This shows that his observation skills must not be weak, and he has the ability to survey the entire scene and discover all the details in just a few seconds.

Ikemura Kojiang took a look at the criminals in the collection of newspaper clippings who were killed for no apparent reason, and felt a chill in his back. She was really afraid that as soon as she plunged the poisonous needle into her husband's neck with her front foot, Jiang Xia would come up to her and ask, "What are you doing?" Then everything would be over.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, Ikemura Koe changed his tool man - Mouri Kogoro.

But now... why is Jiang Xia here? !

Chicun Gongjiang regretted agreeing to go with him just now.

But if you change your words abruptly, it will easily make people suspicious.

Chimura Gongjie: "..." Forget it, let's take someone over to take a look first. At worst, observe the situation before the assassination. If Jiang Xia notices her, abort the plan.

…

Thinking like this, Ikemura Gongjiang barely maintained his noble and cool demeanor, turned around and walked towards the door.

Jiang Xia quickly followed.

Next to him, Hattori Heiji successfully got the task and found the opportunity to observe Jiang Xia. He was in a good mood.

He showed a smile that was about to see through everything, and turned to Jiang Xia. Just as he was about to declare a challenge, he found that Jiang Xia was also looking at him.

Looking at each other for a moment, Jiang Xia suddenly said in a friendly manner: "Have you ever considered transferring to Tokyo? There are many famous detectives here and there are many cases. It's easy to compete with anyone you want."

Hattori Heiji: "..." Huh?

On the other side, as soon as Jiangxia's words came out, he thought it was unrealistic: Hattori Heiji's family was in Osaka, and Ome was also in Osaka, so there was no way he could come over.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia sighed quietly.

Then he got into Kimura Koe's car feeling a little disappointed.

Hattori Heiji looked at his back: "...?"

...Is it his illusion? He always feels that Jiang Xia is not only not hostile to him, a challenger who appears out of thin air, but is actually quite friendly?

Hattori Heiji followed the car suspiciously.

…

Next to him, Conan also slipped into the car quietly.

——Hattori Heiji kept pestering Jiangxia, calling for Kudo Shinichi. He was worried.

And in Conan's view, Hattori Heiji is an overly straightforward person, so straightforward that he deserves to be beaten.

If he keeps asking Jiang Xia questions that Jiang Xia doesn't want to answer, and exhausts Jiang Xia's patience, then someone will have to be responsible for pulling Jiang Xia away with the stick... Hattori Heiji is not a criminal after all, and he may be responsible for breaking it.

As soon as Conan got in the car, Mao Lilan followed him without worry. The car suddenly became a little crowded.

Mouri Kogoro looked at the back seat speechlessly: "There are too many of you, two of you can get off!"

But Mr. Chimura said: "It's okay. This way, it's less likely to arouse reporters' suspicion." It's better to have more people, and the more chaotic it is, the more at ease she feels.

And she suddenly discovered that Jiang Xia seemed to be very interested in the Osaka man. It's nice to have someone distract him...

…

Mao Lilan deliberately sat between Jiangxia and Hattori Heiji, separating the two.

She just discovered that although Hattori Heiji's target is Kudo Shinichi, he is not very friendly to Jiangxia.

She originally thought that Hattori Heiji would continue to stir up trouble, and she was already prepared to throw him away as soon as Hattori Heiji persisted in stalking him... But she didn't.

Hattori Heiji was very quiet, seemingly lost in thought.

…

——He is still thinking about the meaning of Jiang Xia's words "Come to Tokyo".

If Toru Amuro said the same thing to him, Hattori Heiji would definitely suspect that the other party was mocking the quality of teaching in Osaka, or mocking the fact that Osaka didn't have many famous detectives.

But now it's Jiang Xia...

Hattori Heiji's mind flashed with Jiang Xia's sincere eyes, and he really couldn't make similar doubts. He even had the illusion that once he nodded just now, Jiang Xia would immediately take the moving company straight to his house and carry him to Tokyo overnight.

So why did you suddenly invite him? Are you interested in his ability to solve crimes and want to compete?

…

Chicun Gongjiang quickly drove the car to the destination.

The Chicun family occupies a relatively large area and is very impressive. A group of people entered through the door, and along the way met the housekeeper of the Ikecun family, the son and daughter-in-law of Ikecun Kongjiang, and the father-in-law of Ikecun Kongjiang... Finally, they came to the door of the study on the second floor.
