Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 184 Another consortium

Tanaka Jiro's time to deal with the aftermath was very hasty. Not long after, the police found his crime tools and blood-stained clothes in a corner of the yard.

After handling this temporary case that came to his door, Jiang Xia did not forget the previous frame-up case.

After all, I worked all afternoon and all night today, and picked up two ghosts, plus a dead Police Officer Sato, which can be considered a fruitful harvest.

Jiang Xia didn't need to come forward to catch the murderer. He gave the real murderer's idea of ​​​​committing the crime and left the rest to the busy police.

The next day, Jiang Xia came to the police station early, finished taking notes, and picked up two predetermined shikigami.

Dongshan, who was mistakenly arrested, has been released. He happily boarded a plane to attend his daughter's wedding.

Dr. Agasa's "Tropical Rainbow" was also successfully exploded, and the Aidodo Art Museum came to a close amid the exclamations of the citizens.

Jiang Xia saw this colorful building bombing from a distance. It looks like a bright firework from a distance.

After picking up ghosts, watch the fireworks.

Jiang Xia returned to the office in a good mood, continued to work on cases, and checked her mailbox N times a day.

He feels that his current popularity is actually not low.

But I don’t know why, but I just can’t receive the commission from afar. Maybe it’s because the time has not come yet.

However, a few days passed.

Jiang Xia did receive a commission call.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang Xia, I am the housekeeper of Changmen Mansion." An old voice came from the receiver:

"I have an important commission that I would like to ask you to come forward, but the content is not convenient to discuss on the phone. Is it convenient to come and discuss it in detail? - We have sent the address to your email."

Among the island nation conglomerates in this world, there is one that happens to be named "Nagato" and has a similar status to the Suzuki Consortium.

Jiang Xia did have some impressions of the Nagato Group. He quickly nodded: "No problem."

Due to his lack of rare "event physique", Jiang Xia doesn't like to go out by himself.

After deciding to go on a business trip, he went to the Maori Detective Agency, hoping to capture a few lucky teammates at random.

Unexpectedly, when I arrived, I found that this office, which had been open all year round, was actually closed - Maori, his daughter, and Conan were not at home.

Jiang Xia sighed and returned without success, so he had to go on his own.

Originally, Jiang Xia was a little sad when she left.

However, he soon discovered that he seemed to have underestimated his luck.

I just followed the map and walked to the street where Nagato's house is located. Jiang Xia looked up and suddenly saw two familiar figures in front of him.

——Mao Lilan and Conan walked towards him as if taking a walk.

Jiang Xia looked at them, stopped, and his eyes lit up inconspicuously.

Almost at the same time, Mao Lilan also discovered him.

She trotted over in surprise: "Jiang Xia! Are you traveling here too?"

Jiang Xia was startled: "Travel?"

"Yes, the hot springs nearby are very famous. My dad came here to attend the class reunion and took us with him." Mao Lilan looked at him and said happily:

"It's not interesting to soak in hot springs in broad daylight. Besides, there are many scenic spots nearby, so we wanted to go out and see the scenery. Unexpectedly, we met you while walking... What a coincidence!"

Conan was very happy to meet an acquaintance outside.

At the same time, he subconsciously touched his pocket.

The sound-isolating earmuffs are safely in your pocket.

——Ever since I discovered that I could run into Jiang Xia by chance whenever I went to Osaka, these earmuffs became Conan’s personal props, just like the bow tie on his glasses.

Conan's mood was a little complicated for a moment: "..." It actually came into use.

Across from him, Jiang Xia silently glanced at Conan's hand touching his earmuffs.

Mao Lilan didn't notice Conan's little moves. She was still happily chatting with Jiang Xia: "What about you? Are you here to relax?"

Jiang Xia shook his head: "I received a commission."

After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly issued an invitation: "You're all here, want to go and see it together?"

——Although it seems a bit strange to take children and classmates to receive commissions. But in the original plot line, when Kogoro Mouri was doing commissions, he often took his children around.

Jiang Xia nodded secretly: If other detectives can do it, he should be able to do it too.

Mao Lilan was startled, then looked along Jiang Xia's direction, and became interested when she saw the beautiful compound of Changmen's house that was comparable to a scenic spot.

Conan was also attracted by the word "commission" and secretly encouraged: "Sister Xiaolan, let's go and have a look too."

——In his eyes, commissioning is much more interesting than looking at the scenery.

When Jiang Xia tried to abduct two classmates.

A courtyard away, in Nagato's house.

Hattori Heizo was taking his son to check around the mansion of the Nagato family - he and the elderly Chairman Nagato were old friends who had known each other for many years.

"Last night, Dosan said there were some strange noises at home. There were running noises in the corridor, and there were also several strange sounds of objects colliding outside the house. It might be thieves stepping on the spot." Hattori Heizou glanced at Hattori Heizou:

"Nothing was missing from his home. In this case, it is difficult to open a case for investigation. But we can't ignore it completely - I have something to do later. You can stay here for one night and investigate the situation clearly. Do you understand?"

Hattori Heiji: "..." He is not interested in thieves - isn't there a more professional job for him?

However, Hattori Heiji could only think about this in his heart and did not dare to say it in front of his father.

He could only nod his head without interest: "I understand."

Hattori Heizo looked back at his son.

When he talked about the "case", Hattori Heizo couldn't help but think of Jiang Xia, who helped them solve a serial murder case in Osaka last time.

Hattori Heizo: "..." Counting the time, Jiang Xia should be arriving soon.
