Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 364 Strange

When they heard that Hui Yuan Ai was leaving, the three children's ears twitched.

They immediately looked away from Conan and all looked at Haibara Ai, ready to reach out to her and push her back to her seat just like they did to Conan.

...But Haibara Ai is different from Conan. She is a mysterious and cold female classmate who makes the children love but also fear her a little.

In the end, the three pairs of small hands that had no place to rest had to fall back to their original positions and hold down Conan again, who wanted to take advantage of the chaos and follow Haibara Ai to leave.

Jiang Xia waited and waited. Unexpectedly, he only saw a familiar figure among the group of murder attractors he wanted.

Hui Yuan Ai watched as she walked out of the school gate. Soon, her eyes fixed on the other side of the road as she looked back and forth.

She pressed the baseball cap on her head, crossed the road, and trotted to Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia nodded towards her, then looked behind her, but saw no trace of the other people: "Why are you the only one coming out?"

Haihara Ai hesitated for 0.5 seconds between the naughty kid and Jiang Xia: "They don't seem to want to go to the movies, so they changed their duty to today... Why don't you go back first?"

Jiang Xia should not argue with the children about letting go of pigeons. In this case, it feels a bit excessive to keep him waiting here.

After saying that, Hui Yuan Ai looked up at him.

Seeing that Jiang Xia did not show an angry expression, he was just stunned for a moment, and then said in a good mood: "I understand, you can go back first."

...You know, why don't you go home for dinner?

Haiyuan Ai tilted his head in dissatisfaction, but seeing that Jiang Xia was still leaning on the motorcycle and had no intention of going home with her, he couldn't urge her, so he nodded and left with a small schoolbag on his back.

Jiang Xia took out her mobile phone and looked through her mailbox and address book.

He said he was free today, so he was really free today... Anyway, he couldn't pick up the case elsewhere, so why not wait here? With the Young Detective Team and Conan here, there might be a sound coming from nearby after seeing the corpse. screams of terror...

Conan failed to make it.

After being bullied by the children for a while, he was helplessly elected and became the person in charge of facing Jiang Xia.

Conan looked through his half-moon eyes, took out his mobile phone that was almost out of battery, and dialed Jiang Xia's number: "Hello? Um... we got into trouble during the day and were temporarily left to clean up. How about we forget about it today?"

He slightly modified his rhetoric - if he was really assigned to be on duty today, the children should have thought of using this reason to reject Jiang Xia in the morning, but they didn't. So if it happened to be on duty today, it would be easy to be regarded as lying, or a temporary accident would be the most likely to be used as an excuse to lose Jiang Xia... Yes, a qualified detective should also pursue rigor in lying.

"It's okay." On the other side of the receiver, Jiang Xia said in a good temper, "I'll wait for you."

The other three children were listening in Conan's ears: "..."

Conan tried to persuade him a few more times, but to no avail, so he had to hang up the phone.

Then he looked at the three classmates who were squatting in the corner with dark clouds on their heads, drawing circles and planting mushrooms, and advised: "How about you go ahead? It's just a movie. As long as you don't make any noise on the way, you can go home after watching it." good."

"..." Mitsuhiko glanced at Genta silently. He believes that he can abide by movie-going etiquette, but he is very worried about his classmates, and Jiang Xia seems to have always regarded them as a whole, just in case...

After thinking for a moment, Mitsuhiko held his chin, rolled his eyes, and came up with a new idea: "In this case, after we finish cleaning, we will hide in the campus for a while. When the time comes when the child must go home, Brother Jiang Xia will not be able to take him We’re going to the movies!”

"Yes!" Ayumi and Genta slapped their palms together, suddenly realizing.

Conan: "..."

...Forget it, just be happy.

He took back his phone and walked to the tool room, ready to get the tools he needed for cleaning.

On the way, when he passed by where he could see the school gate, Conan casually glanced outside and saw a familiar figure waiting on the opposite side across the empty campus.

Conan's mood was a little complicated for a moment.

During that period when he and Jiang Xia were not familiar with each other, when he first heard that Jiang Xia was hanging out with bad boys, he once imagined that Jiang Xia would come to school with a baseball bat, car lock and other things to block the door and beat people, and then After accidentally killing someone, he pretends to commit the crime and presents Detective Kudo with a three-choice problem...

Unexpectedly, I never saw Jiang Xia blocking the door in junior high school or high school, but I met her once at the gate of the elementary school... Speaking of which, why does Jiang Xia want to stay with these naughty kids so much?

Is it to repay the favor for helping the doctor, or does the children's vitality make him feel comfortable? Conan walked back with the cleaning utensils on his shoulders, lost in thought.

When he returned to the classroom, he looked at the three children with a look of condemnation, and decided to try to persuade them to watch a movie together while cleaning.

At the school gate, Jiang Xia's fingertips were beating quickly on her mobile phone.

Reply to customers' messages; browse the photos of domestic cats sent by customers to facilitate future searches; and also find excuses to greet a few customers whose names are familiar to him, so as to increase the sense of presence so that these VIP customers can meet them when they meet. When working on a case, I immediately thought of him as a reliable detective, and took the initiative to invite him when there were signs of a case.

Time passes unconsciously. One of his younger brothers was going on a trip with his family recently, so Jiang Xia reorganized the cat-hunting territory during this period.

After sending the message, he looked up with emotion and saw a car with a familiar style passing in front of him.

After driving five or six meters, he stopped and reversed back.

The white Mazda parked next to him with precision and rolled down the window.

Amuro Toru's face was revealed behind the car window. He looked at Jiang Xia doubtfully: "What are you doing standing here?"

As he spoke, he turned back and looked at the elementary school on the other side. After his eyes turned back and forth between Jiang Xia and the elementary school several times, Toru Amuro seemed unable to understand the relationship between the two and became even more confused.

Jiang Xia looked at the extremely clear murderous aura lingering on Toru Amuro, and his expression was even more confused than Toru Amuro's for a moment.

But soon, as the car windows opened and the gentle breeze blew, Jiang Xia smelled the familiar smell of apples.

The ghost in his body noticed the abnormality earlier than he did.

The mermaid looked blankly at "Toru Amuro" and then at her arms. In her arms, she was holding a piece of murderous aura that smelled exactly like the murderous aura on "Toru Amuro" - it was taken from Belmode before. Jiang Xia gave her a small piece of it after the mermaid's hard work. Usually held as a toy, it is the mermaid's new favorite.

"..." Jiang Xia gently sniffed the murderous high-end apple fragrance, then took a closer look at "Amuro Toru" in the car, and fell into deep thought.

He suspected that this boss was disguised by Belmode, and he already had evidence, and could even knock the person down and capture him on the spot.

However, before reaching into the car window and tearing off the disguise from Belmod's face, Jiang Xia had other ideas.

"..." As the saying goes, it's come... Rather than exposing it right away when you meet her, it's better to pretend that you haven't discovered anything at first, and remove the murderous aura from Belmod's body, and then sit back and watch her continue to take the initiative every now and then. Send murderous intent over here.

Jiang Xia looked at the people in the car and answered the previous question in a natural tone: "I promised my neighbor that I would accompany some of his children to watch a movie for him."

Hearing this, "Toru Amuro" looked down at his watch, then at the empty school, and reminded: "It's past school time."

Jiang Xia explained patiently: "They are on duty today and will come out later."

"I see..." "Toru Amuro" nodded thoughtfully and didn't ask any more questions.

The car drove away quickly.

Jiang Xia looked at the back of the car going away and was slightly startled.

...are you leaving now?

That's it? ?

After being confused for a while, the sound of tires approaching.

——The murderous "Toru Amuro" is back again, bringing with him a large bag of crispy and fragrant burritos.

"Toru Amuro" opened the passenger door and waved to Jiang Xia casually: "Come in and have something to eat. The kids are cleaning and playing at the same time. I can't remember the time. I don't know how long it will take to come out."

Jiang Xia: "..."

He suspected that even if he couldn't see the murderous intent, he must have discovered that the "Amuro Toru" in front of him was a fake.

Genuine products are not so busy. If I remember correctly, it should be the time when Toru Amuro is busy delivering express...

With this in mind, he glanced at the "Toru Amuro" who looked natural in the car and tried to sneak into their group. He lowered his head and sat in the car, glancing at the steaming paper bag on the armrest box.

The burrito is quite delicious... Forget it, this "Toru Amuro" is currently more considerate than the boss, so let's just pretend that we didn't notice anything until we finish eating.

Jiang Xia opened the bag, picked the one with the best packaging among the pile of burritos, took it out and unfolded it.

Then while eating, he continued to look towards the school gate, ready to intercept the young detective team who might slip away at any time, and did not pay attention to the strange look of "Toru Amuro" next to him.

——Belmod stared at Jiang Xia who was eating, with a complicated mood.

She recalled her inference just now about "Uzuo is wary of organization cadres", and looked at Uzuo who was eating the burrito brought by "Amuro Toru" with confidence... relying on the fact that she was now wearing someone else's skin, She said sarcastically: "Aren't you afraid that the cake is poisonous?"
