Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 1421 1421 [Uncover the mastermind]

After catching up with Jiang Xia, Conan stretched out his hand and tugged on the hem of his clothes, and whispered: "There are too many people here. Don't knock anyone here, or you will be photographed."

Jiang Xia: "...?"

He stopped and looked down at Conan, but hesitated to speak.

Fortunately, after a moment, Conan came to his senses - he suddenly remembered that the sneaky guy near the TV station seemed to have some other possibilities besides suspicious persons.

...For example, Kogoro Mouri is following the mistress.

...Another example is some celebrities.

During the hesitation, Jiang Xia had already walked behind the woman and shouted in a low voice: "Miss Yoko."

"!!"

The sneaky Kinoshita Yoko was startled and froze: she could be recognized even if she covered her face so tightly, she thought she had alerted the fans hiding nearby.

After a moment, he suddenly realized: "..." This seems... to be Jiang Xia's voice?

Wrapping up a scarf, I looked back carefully and found that it was indeed Jiang Xia. Yoko Kinoshita patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "I was shocked. I thought I was going to work overtime again... Come on, come in and talk."

She opened the door of the lounge next to her, grabbed Jiang Xia at the same time, and pulled him in with a swish.

Conan: "..." Why are you so skilled in your movements?

While muttering, he also followed in with a swish. His proficiency was no less than that of Kinoshita Yoko, and he was not caught by the door.

In the lounge.

Jiang Xia looked at the tightly wrapped Kinoshita Yoko and felt that this popular artist must have learned some required course in disguise. If it weren't for Xiaobai's sharp eyes, he might not be able to recognize the person immediately.

He thought of the case just now: "You participated in TMS radio activities? Your business is very broad."

Yoko Kinoshita smiled, a little embarrassed: "Actually, this is not my area of ​​expertise. It's just that the organizer wanted to use my popularity to prop up the scene, so they asked me to be a guest."

As she said something, she thought of something and looked at Jiang Xia: "It seems your family is not here, why are you here so late at night and there is another case?"

Yoko Kinoshita was a little curious. After all, she remembered that she didn't see the police car or the cordon when she went upstairs: Could the body be higher up?

Jiang Xia interrupted her thoughts: "There was indeed a murder case, but the crime scene is not here, but the suspect has been around here - speaking of this, should we ask other police officers and detectives to come in and discuss it together?"

Kinoshita Yoko nodded immediately. She has always been an enthusiastic and good citizen who is willing to help.

At the same time, Yoko Kinoshita thought to herself: It seems that there will be another page in the "Jiangxia Case Scrapbook" at home. Maybe she can join in this time. After watching too many crimes, it’s inevitable that I’ll feel a little itchy. Although she is not good at solving crimes, she can stand by and cheer...

In the corridor outside.

In the blink of an eye, Mouri Kogoro discovered that two juniors with a high sense of presence were missing.

Looking carefully again, the door of a lounge was suddenly opened. Jiang Xia poked her head out of the room, looked around, her eyes quickly settled on him, and she waved to him furtively.

There seemed to be a short figure at Jiang Xia's feet. It looked like Conan - these two people actually got into the staff's room.

Mouri Kogoro: "..." These two guys can really run around. But why are they suddenly looking for me? Could it be that the staff in that room wanted nothing to do with the children and wanted to hold them accountable for trespassing, so he, the adult, was needed to clean up the mess?

Thinking like this, as a mature adult, Mouri Kogoro straightened his collar and strode over proudly: "Humph, I told you not to run around, but you just didn't listen. How about it, the critical moment You're not as big as me..."

He suddenly stopped at the door of the lounge, his expression froze.

"Yangyang...Miss Yoko!!"

As a huge fan of Kinoshita Yoko, Mouri Kogoro recognized the people in the room at a glance. He was stunned for a moment, then turned around and ran downstairs: "It's so rude to meet empty-handed. Flowers match the beauty. Wait a minute, I'm going to the flower shop downstairs..."

"..." Jiang Xia had quick hands and eyes. She grabbed the clothes on his back and dragged him back into the house. "Let's solve the case first, Uncle Maoli."

When Mouri Kogoro heard his voice, he suddenly woke up when he remembered the glorious image that Jiang Xia helped him boast in front of Miss Yoko as a "senior detective who is calm and reliable, hiding his secrets, and only takes action at critical moments."

He turned around, cleared his throat, and said calmly: "Yes, solve the case first, solve the case. Business is more important."

Yoko Kinoshita: "..." What a lively middle-aged detective.

She pretended that she hadn't seen anything just now, straightened her expression, and nodded solemnly.

The police also noticed the movement here.

A group of people quickly sat down in the lounge and asked about the sound collector that appeared in the same frame as Himuro Reiji in the surveillance screen.

Yoko Kinoshita thought for a while: "I don't know the settings of the equipment. Let me ask someone else for you. Wait a moment."

She stood up and walked to the side to make a phone call.

On the sofa, the little patrolman, who had been sitting with his head buried since he came in, quietly raised his head.

He quickly glanced at Kinoshita Yoko's back and looked away, his face flushed and his heart pounding.

Jiang Xia glanced at it from the corner of his eye and was silent for a moment:... Are all the people in this world who are related to the murder case more or less Yoko fans?

Xiaobai saw what he was thinking and nodded in praise: Her event physique must be very strong! And it rarely affects oneself.

Jiang Xia: "..." In the eyes of ghosts, this is really an advantage worth being proud of.

Considering that it was already getting late, Jiang Xia had no intention of wasting time anymore.

He raised his hand and waved it in front of the little patrolman.

"!" The little patrolman suddenly came back to his senses, sat upright, and responded solemnly, "What's wrong?!"

In his eyes, famous detectives are also considered "stars" and have their own aura. After all, he has almost never been involved in any murder cases and has met very few detectives.

The ghost-shaped cat paced back and forth next to him, meowing dissatisfiedly: This guy has a completely different attitude towards his puppets than towards Jiang Xia himself. Obviously the core of both is the same... Huh, stupid humans who only look at appearances.

Miyano Akemi picked it up and touched the cat's head: It's not entirely the patrolman's fault. When she saw a cat squatting quietly next to her, she couldn't help but want to reach out and touch it...

Jiang Xia didn't pay attention to the ghosts' little movements, and was still pushing the progress bar conscientiously.

He looked at the patrol officer: "The light around that building is not good, and it is difficult for ordinary people to detect the movement on the fourth floor. And I asked just now, it seems that it is not your usual patrol route, how did you think of going there at that time? , to that abandoned building?”
