Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 237 Supermodels don’t follow martial ethics

At this time, the mentality of others was not relaxed.

"Whether it's to get the wine letter or the crossbow arrows installed in the wine warehouse... If you want to arrange all of this, it's difficult to bypass Xu Shengyi." Police Department Mu Mu frowned, feeling that things were getting more and more troublesome, "No matter what Whether the murderer has joined forces with Xu Shengyi, or he has completely controlled Mr. Xu, this is not a good thing."

To be cautious, he suggested: "The current police force is just me and Shiratiao - let's leave here first, and when we get to the shore, we can bring a few more people back to search."

"That's fine. I've been so busy that I haven't eaten yet." Jiang Xia looked at her watch and seemed to support the proposal, and left the wine cellar first.

Others also followed out, planning to find the cable car.

But when they walked to the door, they suddenly discovered that Jiang Xia seemed to have seen something accidentally. He was staring at the restaurant and stopped.

"What's wrong?" Mao Lilan looked along his line of sight doubtfully.

The next second, her pupils shrank suddenly, and she let out a violent scream of "Ouch!"

——In the fish tank wall surrounding the hall, there was an additional body at some point. Under the bright light in the water tank, the corpse's face was clearly visible, and it flowed slowly along the water.

"Mr. Xu, Xu?!"

Mouri Kogoro was stunned and ran over.

Jiang Xia got close to the "fish tank", looked up at the body, and suddenly raised his hand and pointed: "There seems to be something pinned to his collar. It should be... playing cards?"

It is indeed a playing card.

In the past, all those who were attacked would have a playing card representing their number dropped next to them, and the one on Xu Shengyi's body was the same now.

"Actually...dead?"

Mao Lilan covered her mouth and trembled a little - in the previous attacks, there was no murder at all, but now, a dead person suddenly appeared in front of them, and it was still such a terrible death.

The nature of the entire case suddenly changed completely.

"Leave immediately! We will seal off this place and conduct a search." A bad premonition surged in the eyes of the Memu Police Department, "We can't stay here any longer!"

However, it was obviously too late to start getting serious at this time.

"The door was locked when we came in..."

"I-my cell phone has no signal."

"Police department, the phone line is gone."

"The escape tunnel cannot be opened! Looking through the gap, it seems that the back is filled with cement!"

"..."

Unable to leave and unable to call for support.

Jiang Xia put down the dead phone in front of her, sighed, and reassured everyone: "Running around will only waste your energy. Find a place to rest first. Then we will discuss what to do next."

The underwater restaurant is very vast, and even on this level, there are many rooms and passages.

"Maybe there are other exits hidden around." Police Department Memu looked up and drank a glass of juice, and said without giving up, "Xiaolan, Miss Koyamauchi and Conan stayed here to rest, and everyone else went nearby to look for clues to leave. !”

Jiang Xia responded and stood up cooperatively.

At the same time, he reached out and picked up Conan, who was trying to sneak into the adults' team, and handed him to Mao Lilan's hands with an elder attitude of "This is for your own good!"

Then, facing Conan's resentful gaze, he found a direction that might be the exit, and tentatively wandered there.

After walking for a while, the light above the head suddenly went out, and the surroundings fell into darkness.

——Someone pulled the switch in the restaurant.

"..." Jiang Xia paused for a moment, looked around the dark surroundings, and skillfully grabbed a lucky ghost from his shoulder, "Lend me your eyesight."

Ghosts can see smoothly even in total darkness.

Jiang Xia borrowed his vision and blinked. His eyes that had lost focus in the darkness quickly refocused.

"ah--!!!"

Just as he saw his surroundings clearly, a frightening scream of death suddenly came along the corridor.

Jiang Xia paused, and after a moment, he turned around and ran quickly to the restaurant he just left.

As they were approaching, there were suddenly a few footsteps in front of them - Mouri Kogoro and Sawaki Koichi also ran over from different directions.

Mouri Kogoro held a flashlight. When he saw Jiang Xia in front of him, his eyes lit up and he subconsciously asked this neighbor guy who always bumped into cases: "What happened?!"

"..." Jiang Xia stopped and silently pointed into the restaurant, "Take a look there."

If he really knew how to ask, I almost thought this uncle was here to deceive his night vision ability...

The Mumu Police Department happened to be near the electric switch. After the power outage, he immediately ran to the electric switch and turned it back on, making the entire restaurant light up.

The group of people returned to the restaurant one after another, looking at the ground near the door and falling into silence.

There was another fresh corpse there.

——Nana Koyamauchi lay face down on the ground, staring with a pair of angry and frightened eyes, a large amount of blood gushed out from the back of her heart, and she was no longer breathing.

"After the power outage just now, Sister Koyamauchi's nails suddenly emitted fluorescence." Conan suddenly spoke, breaking the silence. He was also one of the three "weak people" who stayed in the restaurant just now. He had no idea about the situation when the supermodel was killed. Most clearly:

"I was just about to remind her to calm down, but Sister Koyamauchi rushed out in horror, and then I heard her scream, and then..."

He sighed and shook his head.

This really doesn't look like the calmness that a primary school student should have, but at this time, everyone's thoughts are not here.

"Murakami is really hiding here, waiting for an opportunity to attack us?" Mouri Kogoro's face was extremely ugly. In his opinion, Murakami's father-in-law had a grudge against him, and the attacks and killings were all for revenge, and now, someone died because of it.

"Maybe it's not Murakami."

Jiang Xia walked up to the corpse at some point. He stared at the folds of the corpse's collar. He suddenly squatted down and pulled down the clothes along the folds.

With her smooth back exposed, Mao Lilan said "Hey!" and subconsciously raised her hands to cover her eyes. After a moment, she realized that Jiang Xia was just dedicated to solving the case, and she immediately put down her hand silently and looked over with a serious expression.

There was a purple handprint on Koyamauchi Nana's left shoulder - the murderer seemed to have grabbed her from behind and then stabbed her with a knife.
