Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 372 Fake wine vs adulterated wine (Chapter 1)

Mentioning "people who look exactly like me", a figure suddenly appeared in Amuro Toru's mind.

——Belmod. The member of the organization who is good at disguise.

And if it was really her, then Belmod should be upstairs right now. Otherwise, Sakaguchi Tomomi would be surprised at most, and wonder why "Toru Amuro" switched to food delivery the next day, instead of showing a ghostly expression as if his worldview had been shattered.

Thinking of this, Toru Amuro walked back to Sakaguchi Tomomi.

Under the actress's stiff and horrified gaze, he took the huge paper bag in her arms back into his hands.

Then he said kindly: "It's not easy to carry so many things. I'll help you carry them up."

If there are any checkpoints in the middle, you can also try to use takeout as a checkpoint. In my mind, the top floor of this building seemed to be a studio for a monster movie that was gradually becoming outdated.

For a place that is about to close down, security should not be so strict.

After Conan made up his mind to verify the identity of the disguised version of Anonymous, he secretly opened the cover of his watch.

——If the disguised version of Anonymous is wary of him and his hands are too late to reach the disguised version of Anonymous's face, then try an anesthetic needle. After all, the range of the anesthetic needle is longer than his arm.

At this time, "Amuro Toru" just finished debugging the equipment.

He straightened up and walked briskly towards where Jiang Xia and Conan were. There was just an ordinary smile on his face, but it inexplicably gave people the feeling that he was very happy now.

Halfway through, the studio door was suddenly pushed open and someone came in.

——Genuine Amuro Toru held the takeout paper bag and glanced across the field. He saw Jiang Xia first, and then his eyes fell on "Amuro Toru".

"Toru Amuro" paused, turned to look at the door, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

The two sides looked at each other, not knowing what they understood in the flash of lightning, and their murderous aura increased at the same time.

Jiang Xia looked at the two people with slight surprise, and hesitated for a moment. He really couldn't think of what to say here, so he silently threw the ghost out.

...Anyway, let's gather some murderous energy to subsidize the family.

Belmod's murderous aura often surged, but Toru Amuro's murderous aura was very rare. Last time, his murderous intent disappeared as soon as he peeked out, but this time it lasted much longer than before.

Although these two bottles of wine can barely qualify as an outsider, they are far from the level of gin. In a public place like this, they should not immediately pull out a gun and start a fight...

Therefore, Jiang Xia was quite relieved to watch.

Just as he was thinking about it, the mermaid swam back happily holding a ball of fluffy murderous aura.

Jiang Xia lowered her head and glanced, remembering that the direction she had just gone to seemed to be Amuro Toru...

So, while everyone was looking at the two "Amuro Toru" back and forth in confusion, and no one was paying attention to him, Jiang Xia raised her hand when the merman passed by, and accurately took away the murderous aura in her arms.

When the mermaid looked at his empty hands in a daze, Jiang Xia looked at the coffee-flavored murderous aura and fell into deep thought for a moment.

Could it be that Tohru Amuro always goes to work in coffee shops not only to collect information, but also because of his personal preference?

... He thought that according to the "Bourbon" standard, the murderous smell should be some kind of spirit with the same name, but he didn't expect it to be coffee... Well, on the bright side, at least it wasn't something strange like a sandwich.

And in a sense, coffee is quite good, but the development direction is different from what Jiang Xia expected before.

When the genuine Amuro entered the studio, he didn't hide much.

So not only Jiang Xia and Belmode, but other staff and several elementary school students also immediately noticed the slightly stiff atmosphere here.

Then I was surprised to find that there were two "Amuro Toru" at the scene.

The staff members are not as imaginative as Sakaguchi Tomomi, and are much more normal in comparison.

Soon, Jiang Xia heard someone whisper: "Twins?"

"That's right." Bellmode also heard it. She smiled at the staff naturally, turned around and walked towards Toru Amuro, and introduced smoothly, "This is my twin brother - Akira Amuro."

Jiang Xia: "...?"

Conan's eyes moved back and forth between "Toru Amuro" and "Aki Amuro". Because "Toru Amuro's" reaction was so natural, he couldn't decide for a moment whether it was someone in disguise or whether boss Amuro really had a twin brother.

When Toru Amuro heard Belmod's words, the corners of his eyes twitched obviously.

But he quickly returned to normal and looked at the others: "You guys seem to be taking a break - I have something to ask him about, don't you mind."

As he said that, he put the takeaway into the arms of the staff next to him, and put his arm around Belmode. Belmode also raised his hand slightly, and the two of them instantly became a common good brother posture.

It's just that one of the "good brothers" has a sharp blade hidden between his fingers, and the other uses a slightly wider cuff to hide the pocket gun in the palm of his hand.

Two identical faces looked at each other at close range, and Jiang Xia seemed to see a string of illusory sparks in the air.

Then the two bottles of wine left the venue in tacit agreement, pushed out the door, and quickly disappeared.

Jiang Xia: "..."

Conan stared at the door thoughtfully. Although he did not see the murder weapons in the hands of Belmod and Toru Amuro, he at least saw the tense atmosphere beneath the surface calm.

...The two anonymous people don't seem to have a very good relationship... No, judging from this, the probability that Mr. Amuro is Anonymous is actually not high.

——That's right, after seeing Toru Amuro's reaction, Conan felt that compared to the term "twins", the lighting assistant was more likely to be an anonymous person who could disguise himself, and then he was accidentally approached by the real thing.

He looked towards the corridor where the two "Amuro Toru" disappeared, hesitated, and wanted to follow them to see the situation.

However, as soon as he took a step, a strong voice suddenly came from behind him.

A man in a suit and tie appeared in the studio at some point.

——Producer Kamei looked at the "Gomera" that was only a little taller than an adult with his nostrils, and then looked at the three children surrounding Gomera, wondering why there were humans inside it, and said with a strange tone:

"I'm very disappointed. In fact, Gomera doesn't exist in the world at all - there are only these old and expensive rag covers and the unshaven uncle inside, haha. Fortunately, after this year, this old crew will be completely disbanded."

Director Mikami turned around when he heard this, frowned and said: "The children are just visiting guests, please don't say such things in front of them."

Producer Kamei showed a sarcastic smile, rejected the director's request, and continued to criticize the music, performance, special effects props, Gomera's appearance, and the age of the resident actors in front of the guests. Then he strolled away happily and prepared to go to dinner - as time passed, he became increasingly impatient with the Gomera series of movies, feeling that nothing was in line with the trend of the times.

Because of this episode, the atmosphere in the studio became dull.

Director Mikami cleared his throat with a slight embarrassment: "By the way, the pornographic film shot yesterday has been developed. Let's go to the screening room and take a look."

Other staff members echoed.

However, it is not suitable for several visitors to see the film in advance.

The actor Hidehao Matsui, who had just taken off his Gomera special effects costume, wiped the sweat from his face with a towel and said, "I'll take the guests to visit the studio."

As he spoke, his hesitant gaze fell on Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia glanced at the murderous look on Matsui Hidehao's body and patted Conan: "Go and accompany those children. The equipment here is very precious. Don't let them mess around."

When Conan saw that Jiang Xia seemed to be planning to find the "Amuro Toru" in person, he immediately stopped trying to start a fight and nodded.

... Thinking about it rationally, if Mr. Amuro really has a conflict with Anonymous, Jiang Xia is obviously more suitable than him, a primary school student, to start a fight.

His watch anesthesia needle can only bring down one person. And if he stabs Mr. Amuro unconscious, no one knows what that weird, anonymous person with a history of kidnapping will do.

On the other hand, if Ma falls, Anonymous will be disguised, and Mr. Amuro chooses to hand her over to the police... These mysterious organizations seem to have high requirements for "confidentiality", just like the black organizations who will silence and expose her The same rules apply to members who have identified themselves - no one knows whether anonymity has the same rules. If it causes a bloody storm...that is not what Conan wants to see.

In comparison, Jiang Xia should be able to fight in a more normal way.

Moreover, Jiang Xia has some connections with those two people: Needless to say, Amuro Toru is somewhat in the same boat.

As for the anonymous person who can disguise herself, her attitude towards Jiang Xia is also very strange.

...Maybe the two of them can end things peacefully for Jiang Xia's sake.

Conan nodded secretly, turned around and walked towards the children who were chattering around Hidehao Matsui, silently praying for world peace in his heart.

Toru Amuro and Bermod walked quickly, and Jiang Xia was delayed for a while because of the sudden appearance of Producer Kamei.

When he entered the corridor from the studio, the transparent brothers could no longer be seen.

Fortunately, his ghost is still hanging on these two people, and they can be found wherever they go...

Jiang Xia sensed the location and quickly walked through the corridor and entered the stairwell.

After descending a few floors, he walked purposefully towards an empty office.

When she came to the door, Jiang Xia did not immediately look around. Instead, she first used the ghost's perspective to check the situation of the two people in the office.

It was seen that items in the house were scattered in a mess, a table had been knocked over, and Belmod's disguise was gone, revealing his true appearance - there seemed to be a simple conflict between the two bottles of wine, but it quickly subsided.

... Judging from the current appearance, fake wine and watered wine seem to have reached some consensus in a short period of time.

According to Jiang Xia's observation, the murderous aura in Toru Amuro's body has almost completely disappeared. Belmode's murderous intent actually increased a lot... Judging from this result, it seems that the one who suffered the loss was the impostor.

A group of ghosts are immersed in the scent of murderous aura and are unable to extricate themselves.

Sensing Jiang Xia's approach, Wutian Gou temporarily stopped collecting the murderous aura, floated back, held the murderous aura in his hand to Jiang Xia, and briefly told him what had just happened.

Before coming here, Jiang Xia had actually expected it.

Now listening to Kiritenguichi's retelling, I found that it was Belmode who was grabbed by Bourbon's pigtails.

——Toru Amuro actually found out about her relationship with the organization's boss, and used this to threaten Belmod. If he pretended to be him and wandered around again, he would make the secret known to the public. In addition, if Belmode attempts to silence Bourbon, the secret will be automatically sent.

Even if that secret is exposed, it won't be fatal in the short term, but it will eventually have a lot of impact on Belmode.

Belmod weighed the respective weights of "killing Bourbon" and "secret exposure" very unhappily. Then he thought that Bourbon was actually not that easy to kill. He finally put down his gun and decided to live peacefully with Toru Amuro for the time being.

No wonder Belmod's murderous aura is so abundant. ...Jiang Xia couldn't help but look at her from a ghost's perspective again.

Then I thought happily that although the boss usually seemed to be not doing his job properly, he actually let him get a lot of useful information.

After observing the corridor near the door for a moment, Jiang Xia felt that there was nothing to pay attention to, so Jiang Xia continued to move forward.

——Two Toru Amuro suddenly appeared. It was best for him to follow them and take a look at the situation.

Jiang Xia's footsteps were very light, and before the two people in the room noticed the movement, they appeared silently at the door.

Then he glanced at Belmod, whose disguise had been torn off, revealing his true appearance, and he frowned slightly without being surprised and said, "It turns out to be you. I felt something was not right last time."

"...Last time?"

Toru Amuro's gaze, which had softened, became sharp again.

...It seems that Belmod has pretended to be him more than once. Is this because she is interested in Jiang Xia and is using this to get close to Jiang Xia, or is there some other purpose hidden behind it?

For example, Bellmode may have wandered around Tokyo pretending to be "Toru Amuro" many times, planning to wait for Bourbon's acquaintances to come to him, but he happened to meet Jiang Xia twice...

Thinking of this, Toru Amuro couldn't help but think of his group of subordinates who sometimes seemed not very clever.

What if Belmod ever encounters them...

Toru Amuro felt a shiver in his heart, thinking that he had to investigate and confirm this matter as soon as possible.

Before the results are obtained, direct contact with the organization must be avoided to prevent them from discovering that Bourbon is an undercover agent and setting up a targeted trap to extract public security information from him.

In addition, when Belmod is no longer present, Jiang Xia must be approached again to ask him about the details of his two contacts with Belmod.

As for now, of course it can't be done now - it would be too troublesome if Belmode, who was watching, gave out some unbelievable information by asking questions.

At the same time, Belmode heard this topic, and his heart was also tight.

——Last time she appeared pretending to be Toru Amuro and contacted Jiang Xia and the Young Detective Team;

This time, the people he came into contact with were Jiang Xia and the Young Detective Team.

...For an intelligence officer of Bourbon's level, it was impossible for him to ignore the children who appeared twice, and among those children was Conan of unknown origin, who was Kudo Shinichi who was shrunk by APTX4869.

A series of thoughts flashed like sparks, and Belmod's eyes condensed slightly, and his thoughts subtly overlapped with those of Toru Amuro.

——Jiang Xia’s narration must be interrupted and he cannot be allowed to reveal the details of “last time”!
