Conan’s Corpse Picker

"Well, I'm sorry to trouble you." Jiang Xia nodded.

Then, as if he didn't want to see the troublesome "necklace", he slowly wrapped the scarf again.

…

While Toru Amuro felt sympathy for the employees' suffering, he also did not forget to think about the information revealed in Jiang Xia's words just now.

Although from what Jiang Xia said, he seemed to have been tricked by Ginjiu. But Toru Amuro felt that there was no need for Gin to lie to Jiang Xia about this kind of thing. He probably really took the "Umihara" as well. Only later, a sudden murder disrupted Gin's plan, so he left secretly before being targeted by the police.

Using this possibility as the basis for speculation...

Gin did not transfer a ship from the organization, but took a merchant ship... There must be a reason for everything abnormal. Since this does not conform to Gin's behavior, it may be the arrangement of the local snake "Uzo".

Although Gin accepted the ride on the "Haiyuan" for some reason. But he was not at ease with Wu Zuo. At this time, he happened to meet Jiang Xia, so he wanted Jiang Xia, a detective with strong observation skills, to get on the boat first to help him with the thunder.

...thug behavior with no regard for human life.

Toru Amuro added another page to her list of grudges.

At the same time, he thought that Jiang Xia might actually have come into contact with the mysterious "Uzuo" near the Haiyuan.

Amuro Toru thought for a moment and asked carefully: "Who is on that ship?"

Jiang Xia was slightly startled and looked thoughtful.

Not really recalling the people on the ship.

But he gradually discovered that Toru Amuro's focus at this time seemed to be on people other than gin and vodka.

...The boss asked these questions because he was simply interested in Gin's mission goals.

Or did he learn through some means that besides gin and vodka, there was another person on the boat who deserved the attention of the police?

This thought flashed through her mind, and Jiang Xia suddenly became alert.

Gin has a heavy task, and the importance of his tasks is often uneven. Unless Toru Amuro has some information in advance, he should not have time to keep an eye on what Gin has done.

So the latter seems more likely.

Could it be that the boss knows about "Uzo"...

However, judging from Toru Amuro's current reaction, he must not have matched "Usa" and "Jiangxia" yet. At most, he has only heard rumors about Usa from some places.

Not many people in the organization know "Uzo". If Toru Amuro really learned about "Usa" and became interested in it, then the source of Toru Amuro's information was probably Gin, who happened to have just returned to Tokyo.

Suppose Toru Amuro obtained clues related to "Usa" by observing Gin...

Jiang Xia thought about it and felt relieved.

...If Toru Amuro is really observing "Uzo" by observing Gin and vodka, then the more powerful Toru Amuro is, the closer what he sees to the "Uzo" in Gin's eyes.

Jiangxia thought about his image in the eyes of Gin and Vodka, and then thought about his image in the eyes of Toru Amuro. He felt that for Toru Amuro, imagining "Eka is Usa" is no less difficult than imagining that he is over fifty. The old-fashioned class teacher immediately threw off his clothes and ran to a nightclub to do a striptease after class... Unless you have seen it with your own eyes, it is difficult to make this association.

Thoughts flashed quickly, Jiang Xia didn't pause for too long and answered Amuro Toru's question just now:

"There was the captain and his daughter on the Haiyuan. Judging from the cases that happened later, there were two other passengers. Gin and vodka may also be on the ship. In addition..."

Speaking of this, Jiang Xia stopped talking and frowned in thought.

"What else?" Toru Amuro felt that he had caught the key point, "Don't worry about saying something wrong, just tell me what you think is wrong."

"Yeah." Jiang Xia responded, then considered:

"I always felt that there was actually another person on the boat at that time.

"——When I was at a seaside hotel, I once passed by a somewhat strange man. The man had a low brim of his hat and wore sunglasses to cover his face. Although he didn't behave strangely, I always felt that he There is something about me..."

Jiang Xia sat on the sofa with his hands clasped against his chin. He paused for a while before giving a word with uncertainty:

"—the smell of crime."

Afterwards, he continued in Toru Amuro's suddenly solemn eyes: "Later on the ship, because of Gin's previous threat, I never left the cabin before the murder. But I still had a vague feeling - that The man is nearby, on that boat."

...Although things like breath belong to the category of metaphysics. But how can detective things be called metaphysics? This was a hunch, a flash of inspiration, and very reasonable.

——Jiang Xiahui suddenly said this because there is a "Uzuo" in the organization, which is an established fact.

Rather than letting others guess randomly and eventually guessing him by mistake, it is better to first push a dummy out to be the fake "Uzo".

In this way, even if the red side has nothing to do and wants to pick out the vest, according to the usual practice, they have to take an extra detour of "the 'Uzo' that they worked so hard to pick out is actually just a shield", and then they can continue to dig out the real "Uzo" ——In this way, Jiang Xia can have a lot of spare time to wrap up his identity.

As for who to choose as the false Uzo...there is no need to worry about it, of course it is his loyal and reliable puppet subordinates.

Although there is currently no suitable ghost fetus, there are very few people who know about Uzo anyway. It makes sense to spread some rumors in the early stage to occupy an empty position, and then let him take up his post when a usable puppet is available in the future.

Jiang Xia actually had similar thoughts for a long time.

So he prays every day that he can pick up a handsome adult male with inconspicuous tattoos to serve as an "Uzo" - one of the effective ways to prevent being ripped off is to wear multiple layers of vests, so that if they fall off One level up, and there are other lines of defense below, so you won't be beaten to the bottom...

However, after praying for so long, all the strange sea, land and air vests were obtained, as well as a beautiful sister and a handsome child. However, the adult male ghost fetus just refused to appear... Every time he thought about this problem, Jiang Xia couldn't help but fall into deep thought. I wonder why his European energy can't be focused on key places.

Toru Amuro listened to Jiang Xia's speculation and looked at his sincere and troubled expression, thinking that Jiang Xia was embarrassed by the dislocation of "feeling that there are dangerous people around but there is no evidence."

In addition, I have seen many cases solved by Jiang Xia, and I am very confident in his reasoning ability, observation and intuition.

Toru Amuro also felt at this time that Uzo might actually be on the ship at that time.
