Conan’s Corpse Picker

When we arrived at the place, we saw a sign beside the door with a few English words written on it, which translated to "Ogata Finance".

——According to the results of the police investigation just now, the person who fell from the building opened a loan company, and I heard that the profits were pretty good.

Jiang Xia looked at the nameplate and sighed: "I remember that the person who fell from the building was named 'Ogata', right? It's so unlucky to use such a brand with white characters on a black background. It looks like a memorial tablet."

"The tablets are not all black and white, some are much brighter than this nameplate."

Suddenly a voice came from behind - Haiyuan Ai walked up the stairs at some point.

Conan wasn't very interested in the color of the sign. He stretched out his hand and tried to twist the doorknob.

The door clicked open.

"...It's not locked?" He was startled for a moment, hesitantly walked into the house, looked around, and his tone quickly became determined, "It seems that this is actually the first crime scene."

Jiang Xia looked in from the door and found that the elegantly decorated room was in a frightening mess. It looked like something big had just happened - the floor-to-ceiling window opposite the door was open, and there was a raindrop on the balcony. It was like usual. The fallen ash mixed together and turned into mud, and a thick and long mud mark started from the balcony and extended all the way to the living room.

In the living room, the sofa and coffee table were all twisted, as if there had been a fierce fight here.

While Conan and "Yusaku Kudo" were attracted by the crime scene, Haibara Ai quietly tugged on the hem of Jiang Xia's clothes, as if she had something to say to him.

Jiang Xia looked back at her, followed the direction she pulled to the corridor, and squatted down skillfully to accept the conversation.

Hui Yuan Ai's face was very ugly, and his fingers were trembling a little if he looked closely: "After you went upstairs just now, I followed you. At the rooftop entrance, I always felt that there was someone diagonally opposite you. And from my perspective, I seemed You saw the reflection of the muzzle of the gun - was it, was someone trying to kill you?"

Jiang Xia touched her head through the furry hood, feeling a little surprised: Ireland couldn't hide from Conan's inspiration, but now it can't even hide it from Haihara Ai, a serious civilian cadre... It's a pity that every time I forgot to record it, otherwise I really should have recorded it and played it to Ireland in the future. Maybe I could use this to gain an extra wave of murderous energy before opening the blind box.

"No one wants to kill me. Look, I didn't have any cover just now, and I didn't notice the person's existence at all, but the person never fired - it was such a good sniper position just now, if someone really wanted to kill I must have taken action long ago."

While Jiang Xia was thinking about the future, she did not forget to whisper to Haiyuan Ai:

"Maybe you saw it wrong. Or maybe there was someone with a gun there. It's just that he didn't hold the gun to kill me, but he was worried that the brutal murderer who pushed the victim down the stairs was near me and was always ready to push me. The detective went downstairs to silence him, so he helped me keep an eye on the surrounding area."

Haiyuan Ai's grip on Jiang Xia's clothes loosened a little. It seemed to make sense, but at the same time, he felt that something was very wrong. She was doubtful: "...really?"

Jiang Xia nodded firmly: "Don't worry, I know very few people in the organization, and I haven't come into contact with too many dangerous elements. The few acquaintances I have have a very harmonious relationship with me - don't always make things worse. From my perspective, that person must be here to help.”

After a pause, worried that he had exaggerated too much and caused Hui Yuan Ai to lose his vigilance, he reminded again: "Of course, because some people are really loyal, they will still react when faced with your bottle of 'Sherry' Seems very persistent. You must be careful to hide yourself."

"..." Hui Yuan Ai still didn't believe it.

But if you think about it carefully, according to the habits of organizational cadres, if the unknown gunman really wanted to kill Jiang Xia, and he had such a good opportunity just now, since he raised the gun, he would definitely shoot.

Otherwise, taking out the gun, shaking it, and then putting it back will only increase your risk of exposure. Unless that person had other purposes for raising the gun, such as... uh, to help Jiang Xia guard the surroundings?

Haibara Ai: "..." Although it sounds like a reasonable fact, this kind of mutual love, friendship and mutual help is strange no matter how you think about it among the members of the organization, and it is difficult to accept it for a while.

She tugged on her hood, carefully covering her distinctive hair. Then he huddled in his large coat and fell into confusion for a short time.

Jiang Xia saw her looking like she was thinking about life, so she didn't disturb the mini-scientist anymore and turned around and entered the crime scene.

——Although it is not appropriate to go in directly like this, as a detective, he is just here to catch the naughty kid who entered by mistake. In order to avoid causing more damage, he had to enter the door.

As soon as I walked in and scanned around, I saw the "naughty kid" holding a handkerchief, picking up an ID from the sofa, and looked at it carefully:

"The owner of the document is called 'Honda Ryohei'... Judging from the name and photo, he should also be a Japanese. He is also a Japanese in London, and the document appears in a place like this - this person is probably related to the person who fell from the building. We know the victim and even have some friendship with him. If we can find him, we will definitely be able to find more useful clues."

Jiang Xia passed by him, glanced down at the ID, then walked to the balcony, staring at the small pool of muddy water gathered on the balcony: "There are obvious drag marks, and there are blood stains on the ground - it seems that the person fell from the roof After I got to the balcony, I was dragged into the house."

"Drag him in first, and then throw him out from here? The logic of this person's actions is a bit strange." Kidd walked next to him, leaned on the railing and looked outside, and suddenly discovered something.

He stretched out his hand and pointed downward: "There was actually a pair of glasses dropped on the wall...and if you look closely, you can see that these glasses are exactly the same as the ones in the ID photo just now. This is the ID of the person who had an argument with the person who fell. Right. It was obviously Ogata who fell, but the other person’s glasses were actually on the balcony..."

"Kudo Yusaku" touched his chin, thoughtfully, as if he understood something.

In the living room, Conan invariably touched his chin with the same gesture: "The strangest thing is why that person first dragged the fallen person into the room and then threw him outside. By the way! It could be..."

Before he finished speaking, his collar suddenly tightened - Jiang Xia came over and grabbed his collar.

"?" Conan's thoughts were interrupted and he looked up at him inexplicably, "What's wrong?"

The next moment, he understood why.

——The ajar door was suddenly opened. Inspector Asa finally finished handling the scene downstairs and walked in with his two subordinates.

Suddenly, he found several people in the room, and Inspector Asa stopped in his tracks.
