Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 371 Toru Amuro: Two me? Asking for monthly ticket()

When Jiang Xia received Hui Yuan Ai's email, she had already entered the studio with a group of children.

There is a scaled city model here. At first glance, it looks like a skyscraper standing in the sky, but in fact it only reaches Jiang Xia's shoulders.

In the middle of this group of mini-buildings is a roaring monster "Gomera" that keeps knocking over and destroying buildings.

Jiang Xia's eyes stopped on this "monster" who was slightly taller than an adult male, and he took a few more glances.

It resembles a stegosaurus that walks upright. It has a dark black skin with muddy and rough skin, and a row of triangular stacked protrusions on its back along the spine... It's a bit ugly, but it has a lot of murderous aura wrapped around it.

In addition, there is another murderous person in the studio.

And it’s quite a high-end murderous aura…

Jiang Xia's eyes moved slightly and looked at the lighting assistant on the sidelines.

...The silhouette lingering with murderous aura looks delicious.

When the air conditioner blows cold air, there is also a faint smell of apples.

Jiang Xia: "..."

..."Toru Amuro" is really haunting.

…

Director Mikami is a person who loves children.

He kindly and enthusiastically introduced the staff and filming equipment here to Jiang Xia and a group of primary school students.

Just as he was talking, the filming of Gomera came to an end.

Several staff members noticed the movement here and came towards them, wanting to entertain the children.

Among them is "Toru Amuro" who works as a lighting assistant here for some reason.

Disguise is indeed a skill that is difficult to guard against, but psychics are obviously different from ordinary people in many ways - in Jiang Xia's eyes, the murderous aura on Belmod's body is more conspicuous than a searchlight in the dark, and it is easy to distinguish.

Jiang Xia: "..." Speaking of which, Bellmod is not Toru Amuro. She has no hobby of working part-time, and she will not go to work for a production crew that is about to be disbanded for no reason.

So her presence here should have some clear purpose.

Jiang Xia looked at Conan and then at herself, feeling that she understood.

Belmode probably found out from somewhere that Jiang Xia was bringing his children to visit the studio today, so they sneaked over to play together when they had nothing to do... Except for gin, everyone in the organized group had a full level of drinking.

Belmode came regularly to send him murderous intent, but Jiang Xia didn't object.

But there are always such sudden "surprises", maybe one time he will bump into Haibara Ai, or bump into Amuro Toru's subordinates, disturbing Jiang Xia's peaceful and stable channels for picking up ghosts...

Jiang Xia hesitated for a moment and felt that she had to at least give Bellmode a warning and let her be more careful and not come over to contact him so directly and blatantly every time.

Thinking this, Jiang Xia's eyes fell on Conan next to him.

——The important task of peeling off a layer of vest is left to you, come on! A special Noble Phantasm for Belmod.

…

"Toru Amuro" had just taken two steps towards Jiang Xia and Conan, when he was suddenly stopped by his colleagues and asked to adjust the equipment.

Belmode was reluctant, but now, after all, she was playing the role of a qualified migrant worker, so she could only walk back the same way with a smile.

The children had already rushed to the building model and looked around "Godzilla".

Jiang Xia took advantage of the fact that there was no one else around and asked Conan in a low voice: "Have you told anyone that we are going to visit here on the weekend?"

Conan was also wondering why Toru Amuro was here.

When Jiang Xia asked, he subconsciously recalled:

"I met Xiaolan after school last Thursday. She asked me why I didn't go to the movie with you and the kids. I told her that the movie was canceled and changed to a tour. After that, she went to buy groceries and I went to the bookstore to buy mystery novels... …”

Halfway through his words, Conan suddenly saw that Jiang Xia's face was a little more solemn than before.

He unconsciously suppressed his voice so as not to disturb Jiang Xia's thoughts. At the same time, he also vaguely realized what the problem was.

Sure enough, Jiang Xia looked at "Amuro Toru" who was busy at the other end of the studio and suddenly said softly: "There was a quiz at school that day. When I came home after the exam, I saw her going to the club for training..."

Jiang Xia didn't say it clearly, but the meaning was very obvious.

——When Conan met "Mao Lilan", the "Mao Lilan" Jiang Xia saw was still training in the club.

...Xiaolan doesn't know the clone technique, so it's impossible to appear in two places at the same time. Speaking of which, this incident suddenly gave Conan a strong sense of déjà vu.

He suddenly remembered that some time ago, when the anonymous person who could disguise himself had called him on Jiang Xia's mobile phone in Mao Lilan's voice.

Let's think about "Toru Amuro" who has become more and more strange recently - the "Toru Amuro" I met last time in the teaching building. Compared with Mr. Amuro in the past, there are many subtle differences that are indescribable.

...It's like two different people.

Conan: "..." In other words, the "Amuro Toru" they met could be a fake in disguise?

Conan pushed up his glasses, and a reflection flashed across the lenses. He couldn't help but want to wait for "Toru Amuro" to finish handling the tools and come to talk to them, pretending to be an ignorant child, and take the opportunity to pull his face and see See the true face of this mysterious man.

…

When Jiang Xia was secretly fighting, Conan was seriously thinking about the steps to make trouble.

Actress Sakaguchi Tomomi, who played the role of "Emela", was entertaining the children when she received a call from the delivery man - the drinks and desserts she ordered earlier had been delivered.

"You play with the children for a while first." She entrusted the children to her colleagues, "I'll go get the takeaway!"

With that said, Emera trotted downstairs and soon came to the lobby on the first floor.

…

In the hall, stood a man wearing a delivery boy's uniform and holding a large paper bag in his hand.

Inside the paper bag were the drinks and desserts Sakaguchi Tomomi wanted. From a distance, you could feel the sweet aroma of the food inside.

"Thank you!" Sakaguchi Tomomi's eyes were glued to the fragrant paper bag.

She paid and was about to take the food upstairs, but when she turned around, she was suddenly startled and turned back suddenly, looking at the delivery man who was about to leave in shock.

This face, this skin color and hair color...

Looks familiar.

Isn't this the new lighting assistant? !

——A few days ago, the lighting assistant was unfortunately involved in a car accident and injured his hand. He was unable to recover for ten and a half days. After that, the director hired the current lighting assistant to temporarily fill in for emergencies.

But now...why did the lighting assistant suddenly become a delivery person? ?

Moreover, Sakaguchi Tomomi remembered that when she came down just now, she clearly passed by the mixed-race assistant. Why, why now...

Sakaguchi Tomomi hugged the warm paper bag and shivered solidly in the hot air coming from the gate.

Then she saw with horror that the delivery boy who was about to leave seemed to be keenly aware of something.

He stopped leaving, turned around, looked at Sakaguchi Tomomi with a slightly scrutinizing look, and asked with a smile: "Do you know me?"

Sakaguchi Tomomi: "..."...the voice is the same! ! It's haunted! ! !

She closed her mouth tightly, and there was a feeling that if she opened it slightly, her frightened soul would float out of her mouth.

The receptionist a few meters away noticed the stiff atmosphere here and looked over suspiciously.

Toru Amuro immediately caught sight of the front desk.

He looked at Tomomi Sakaguchi, who was pale and speechless, turned decisively and walked to the front desk, and asked speculatively: "Has anyone similar to me been here recently?"

"?" The receptionist was confused, but still subconsciously told the information he knew, "You mean the lighting assistant who works in the studio on the top floor?"

"Lighting assistant..." Toru Amuro thought thoughtfully.

Combined with Sakaguchi Tomomi's violent reaction and the words at the front desk, he had a vague suspicion.

——There might be someone who looks like him in the "rooftop studio" mentioned at the front desk.

No, judging from Sakaguchi Tomomi's level of panic, it's not just a "resemblance", maybe it's exactly the same...
