Conan’s Corpse Picker

"Dead person?" Jiang Xia was startled, then gently put her on the ground, her expression became gentle, "Don't be afraid, speak slowly."

"I, I just wanted to go to the balcony to look for evidence." Ayumi wiped her tearful eyes:

"Unexpectedly, when I looked outside just now, I suddenly saw a strange single-family house - through its windows, I could actually see the light of blood!

"I didn't think it was blood at first. I just thought the red color was very beautiful, so I wanted to climb up to a higher place to take a look. Then I saw... I saw an uncle kneeling next to the bathtub, with his upper body lying in the water. It’s all blood! With so much blood, he must be dead, wuwuwu..."

Others also heard the noise at this time, and they all crowded onto the balcony.

When the Mumu Police Department heard this, they were shocked. Unexpectedly, when I came out to work overtime in the middle of the night, I stumbled into another case by mistake.

Jiang Xia glanced at her and touched the panicked little girl's head: "Don't be afraid. Tell uncle, which house did you see?"

"...That's the room."

Ayumi held Jiang Xia's arm tightly, as if she had gained some courage, and gently pointed to the place she saw.

The police officers moved closer to the railing and followed her direction, but they were unable to determine which room it was.

——This happens to be a residential area with a large number of houses. At a glance, all the windows had their curtains drawn, and none of them "looked scarlet."

"..." Jiang Xia was silent for a moment and looked at Wutian Gou.

This time, the foggy dog ​​successfully understood the meaning of its master. It flapped its wings and flew in the direction pointed by Yoshida Ayumi, like a hummingbird-like crossbow arrow.

Not long after, he flew back with information.

——Yoshida Ayumi was right, there really were corpses over there.

...Of course, there is also the fresh shikigami on the murderer's leg.

…

Although Mr. Dongshan's matter is still being dealt with, except for the murder case nearby, it is impossible to ignore it.

And judging from Yoshida Ayumi's description, the person may have just died not long ago.

The police are worried about insufficient manpower.

At this time, Jiang Xia's crisp voice came from next to him: "The murderer in this case should be Beichuan Long who helped Mr. Dongshan go home after he was drunk. The children's notebook said that Beichuan Long had a band-aid wrapped around his thumb. , that is probably the mark left when he was stabbed by the deceased's cactus when he was setting up the scene. You can check the cactus on the balcony later. As for his method... time is urgent, let's talk about it on the way."

"Okay!" Mumu Police Department was very pleased. The most correct decision he made today was to lure Jiang Xia to the scene with various hints.

Sato was also very pleased and felt that the most correct thing he had done today was to ask Jiang Xia for help in every possible way. Although Jiang Xia had not finished telling the story of the crime, at this rate, it would not be difficult to catch up with Mr. Higashiyama who was wrongly accused. Daughter's plane.

…

A group of people followed Yoshida Ayumi's directions and walked through the complex residential area. It took them a while to find the target.

The Mumu Police Department came to the single-family house with the "Tanaka" nameplate and rang the doorbell.

After pressing the button for a while, a grumpy old man wearing a bathrobe and glasses opened the door impatiently: "What are you doing?! It's so noisy!"

"Sorry, let me borrow your bathroom." Miwako Sato pushed open the door and went straight to the bathroom.

However, when I arrived at the place, I opened the door and found that it was very clean inside - no blood and no corpses.

The Megure Police Department was startled and looked at Ayumi Yoshida inquiringly.

Ayumi muttered in confusion: "This should be it... I, I read it right."

Jiang Xia knew that she was indeed not lying, so he lowered his hand and touched her head.

Yoshida Ayumi shuddered. While I was scared, I felt very safe at the same time. The two instincts conflicted, and in the end she was like a trembling little rabbit, frozen in place and letting others touch her head, not daring to move.

…

Jiang Xia looked at the clean bathroom and then at the owner of the house who was following closely behind them:

"You can't see any blood, so that doesn't mean anything - this is a bathroom, the blood stains are easy to wash away, and I always feel... there is a very faint smell of blood here."

The owner of the house glared at him, and a murderous aura slowly emerged from his body.

Jiang Xia's eyes dimly lit up.

Next to him, Hui Yuan Ai heard Jiang Xia's words and sniffed carefully with his little nose raised, but he only felt the smell of disinfectant.

"..." Haiyuan Ai held her chin and fell into deep thought: Could it be that only certain people can smell the "smell of blood"? For example, someone who often kills people and shows blood in missions... huh? !

Thinking of this, Hui Yuan Ai was slightly shocked.

She raised her hand, trying to secretly tug on Jiang Xia's clothes to remind him to cover his waistcoat.

However, at this moment, Conan next to him suddenly nodded with determination: "Yes, I smell blood too."

Haibara Ai:"……"

...Detectives are a wonderful species.

She wanted to grab Jiang Xia's hand, but silently turned it around and placed it on her temple, pretending to fix her hair.

Miyano Akemi, who was lying on top of her, was startled, then happily touched her palm, and patted her head with her sister from across the dimension.

The Mumu Police Department also couldn't smell blood.

But he believed in Jiang Xia's judgment - Jiang Xia was, after all, a young man whose hardware equipment was at its peak, and his nose must be sharper than his.
