Conan’s Corpse Picker

Mao Lilan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the innocent classmate was successfully cleared of suspicion.

However, the mental relaxation made her feel dizzy. In her confusion, Mao Lilan seemed to hear a woman's voice. That pleasant voice was filled with a hint of heaviness and vicissitudes of life, and she whispered softly: "Are there really gods in this world?"

"An angel never smiles at me, not once."

Several figures crisscrossed back and forth, and suddenly, Mao Lilan remembered - the long-haired man wearing a knitted hat, the woman holding an umbrella and smiling sadly, and a lot of messy lights and shadows... These were not illusions. It was an experience she had when she went to New York a year ago. She couldn't tell whether it was bad or wonderful.

The moment the memory came back, Mao Lilan felt dizzy and fell to the ground.

"Ah——!!" the crowd of onlookers who had not completely dispersed screamed, "Another one died! Where is the police? Why are the police leaving so fast? Come back quickly!"

On the second floor, Vodka, who was about to take advantage of the chaos, suddenly turned around.

Seeing the next "dead person" lying on the ground, he was stunned: How could it be her? !

"...That's right." Vodaf took a deep breath, and based on the principle of appearing reasonable, he forced himself to understand the situation at hand, "Although Uzo often uses disposable props, no one stipulates that he can't take advantage of people around him. Surgery.

"And the Maori lady was very kind-hearted among the Uzo group. It must be because she unconsciously hindered Uzo's stage a lot, so she finally wore out Uzo's patience and was brutally killed."

"Sure enough, darkness cannot tolerate pure whiteness. Fortunately, I thought before that this girl might be his weakness. But now it seems... I thought too much."

Vodka sighed in his heart while studying Uzo's small team.

Suzuki Sonoko and Conan rushed to the person lying on the ground: "Xiaolan! What's wrong with you?!"

Vodka: "..." Hehe, at such a young age, each actor's acting skills are better than the other.

He lowered the brim of his hat and was about to sneak away in a low-key manner, but at this moment, he heard Suzuki Sonoko exclaimed: "Her forehead is so hot!"

Vodka: "Huh?"

...The line is wrong. Shouldn't it be "Her mouth tasted like bitter almonds"?

…

in the hall.

Jiang Xia checked Mao Lilan's condition and looked around: "It's hard to get a taxi on this street. Who has a free car? She must be sent to the hospital as soon as possible."

In the crowd, Akai Shuichi looked at the girl lying on the ground, with long silky hair and a gentle face that looked like Miyano Akemi, and his heart moved slightly.

...But the legs didn't move.

Of course, Akai Shuichi didn't just come here to eat today: the clues from the previous period have not yet yielded results - until now, he is still visiting the students of the dead magician who has a lot of celebrities all over the world.

While passing by here on the way, he suddenly saw a car in the parking lot. The model and license plate of the car... were very similar to those commonly used by the organization.

"..." Akai Shuichi stopped immediately. Based on the principle of trying nothing, he wanted to install a transmitter and a bug on the car.

However, before he started taking action, he suddenly discovered that the parking lot was covered with surveillance cameras, and there was a police station not far away.

"..."

Recalling the painful experiences in the past, Akai Shuichi suddenly suspected that as soon as he put something on his front feet, the bugs and transmitters on his back feet would be removed by enthusiastic people passing by. At the same time, a group of police officers swarmed out and regarded him as an outlaw. Take him to the police station.

Akai Shuichi: "..." Forget it. If you think about it, for those who are cunning enough, bugs and transmitters are completely useless - they will be discovered long before useful information is exposed.

And if you encounter a less cunning member of the organization... Such a guy probably doesn't have a high status, so what's the use of catching him? They might not know as much as his bottle of "rye whiskey."

Thinking like this, Akai Shuichi quickly changed his plan - instead of taking the risk of a day trip to the police station to do this kind of useless work, it is better to search nearby and take a gamble that he can directly catch the organization members who are wandering around here. .

…

After searching on the street for a while, Akai Shuichi suddenly heard some commotion in this Chinese restaurant.

He followed the sound and came over, cleverly blending into the crowd...and then out of the corner of his eye, he saw a few familiar faces.

Familiar screams, familiar murders, familiar choices... Only this time, Jiang Xia was also included in the options.

An innocent high school detective was brutally plotted against, but fortunately he escaped from the plot with his own strength. However, soon after, Jiang Xia's female high school friend also fell into the trap.

At this moment, Akai Shuichi wanted to help.

But with this undisguised face, he thought of the organization member lurking nearby, and Uzo who might exist deeper behind the scenes: He was silent for a moment, and finally stopped rationally - the probability of losing his life due to fever is higher than The probability of being targeted by the organization and losing his life because of his "intersection with Shuichi Akai" is much lower.

…

When Akai Shuichi was calmly weighing the pros and cons, he suddenly noticed that Jiang Xia glanced at him.

After a moment, the high school student seemed to think about it, and then suddenly raised his voice and said to the corner: "Mr. Yamada, can you take us to the hospital? - I remember there is a hospital less than 3 kilometers across the bridge."

Akai Shuichi: "!"

Conan, who was looking at Mao Lilan intently, suddenly turned around: "?!" Who? Who is Jiang Xia calling? ?

Vodka, who was about to sneak to the side door: "..."

...Damn Uzo, I was only two steps away from escaping, why did you shout at me at this time instead of earlier? I, I will fight you!!

While cursing in his heart, "Mr. Yamada" turned around reluctantly.

Then he showed a surprised expression: "Mr. Jiang Xia? What happened? Why did Miss Maori fall down? I was in the bathroom just now and didn't pay attention to the outside."

Next to him, Akai Shuichi looked at the sudden appearance of Vodka, silently took a step back, and sneaked into the depths of the crowd.

——His previous guess was correct, there were indeed members of the organization nearby.

The only unexpected thing was that the person turned out to be Vodka.

"Jiang Xia actually asked him for help... Although compared with other cadres, Vodka is indeed easy to talk to, but after all, he is also a member of the organization."

Akai Shuichi sighed in his heart: "Jiang Xia is still too impulsive. He may have mistakenly thought that I wanted to help, so in order to prevent me from implicating his classmates, he spoke up to remind me that Vodka was nearby, and solved the car problem by the way.

"This is indeed killing two birds with one stone, but..."
