Conan’s Corpse Picker
Chapter 453 Witches are all liars
As the show approaches, the lights go down in the theater and the music flows.
As the actors enter the stage, the presence of the audience is reduced to a minimum. Next to Jiang Xia, Suzuki Sonoko, who had been excitedly talking to him before, also calmed down and sat down to watch.
Jiang Xia looked around, leaving two clever ghosts behind, and briefly gave some instructions.
Then he leaned back slightly and leaned against the soft back of the chair.
Shikigami invisible to ordinary people surged upwards, squirmed out of the ceiling, and condensed and accumulated on the roof.
Soon, on the dark roof, an equally dark figure appeared, spreading its wings.
Jiang Xia's consciousness also moved into the puppet constructed by Wutian Dog.
He recalled the direction notified in Kidd's notice letter, then flapped his wings and flew away.
…
Nearly twenty minutes later.
The time of the announcement, the place of the announcement.
Jiang Xia silently fell into the shadow on top of a building.
Then he looked at the person standing on the top of another building and fell into deep thought.
...Jiang Xia passed by the police before.
Judging from the police's shouting, in the eyes of others, the arrogant figure on the rooftop opposite was indeed Kidd.
But in Jiang Xia's eyes, the "Kid" on the roof at this time was actually a woman surrounded by a dense circle of magic power.
——The woman has a magic bulge on her head and soft extensions on her back. She looks like she is wearing a high hat and a cloak floating in the air. Her whole body was wrapped in pure and delicious magic. Her face could not be seen clearly, and she could only vaguely see her figure.
In addition, behind the figure, there is an invisible line extending out into the distance.
Jiang Xia glanced at the line with sparse magic power and it was difficult to see clearly, and then his eyes fell back on "Kid" covered in magic power. A series of images of "breaded in bread crumbs and fried until golden" appeared in his mind.
The next second, he secretly shook his head and shook the strange scene out of his mind.
Then he threw out the ghost fetuses that were ready to move.
Afterwards, Jiang Xia estimated the amount of magic power to be consumed and the distance between the two sides, and silently weakened the puppet's strength a little.
The puppet is made of a pile of puppet clay, and the material of the puppet clay is shikigami.
Once it is weakened at this time, a lot of free shikigami are immediately freed up.
Jiang Xia released these extra shikigami together with the shikigami that had been waiting for use in the seals, and let them float quietly towards "Kid" who was standing on the roof of the opposite building and was imitating Kid's pose.
——There are many shikigami, and they can pick up energy cores as efficiently as locusts crossing the border.
When the good guy delivering food across the street is surrounded by shikigami, she won't be able to escape easily by using magic power to levitate into the air.
At that time, Jiang Xia can easily fly over and catch the person, drain the magic power using familiar methods, and in the process, ask where his stable energy core supplier Kidd is now.
——According to Kidd's habit of knocking that person unconscious and tying him up before disguising himself as someone else, other people pretending to be Kidd might also take similar actions.
…
While waiting for the shikigami to float over and outflank him, Jiang Xia secretly looked at the figure standing upstairs who seemed to be pretending to be Kidd.
Although his vision was blocked by magic, he couldn't see the woman's face clearly.
But when the two keywords "magic" and "gender woman" are mentioned, it is impossible not to think of Koizumi Anko.
After guessing the specific identity of the witch, Jiang Xia looked at her from a distance, his eyes moving slightly.
It shouldn't have been too long since the last time I squeezed out my magic power.
Koizumi Anko's magic power grew back so quickly?
This is so useful...
Just as he was thinking about it, "Kid" in the distance suddenly held down his earphones and listened to something.
Immediately afterwards, she suddenly turned around and glanced in the direction of Jiang Xia, then turned around and ran away.
…
She ran much faster than the fluttering shikigami.
Jiang Xia was startled, glanced to the side thoughtfully, then temporarily put away his shikigami, flapped his wings and took off, chasing after him.
"Kid" heard the unusual wind noise behind him and looked back.
The person dressed as Kidd is indeed Anko Koizumi.
The clothes Minamoto Kurenai gave her before can help accumulate magic power, allowing her, a witch who currently lacks magic power, to maintain this "Kid" form for a long time.
——"If the foggy dog can't see through the transformation magic and mistakes us for 'Kid', he should follow us to check the situation. This is of course good. It doesn't matter who plays the role."
"However, considering that it is an unknown monster after all. If he can see through our magic, then it is best for you to be the bait."
"That piece of love chocolate you used may have had an effect on the foggy dog - you see, he just flew you for a while that day and didn't hurt you, right?"
"So I think that only if you show up in person can you lead him to that magic circle without any problems."
...Recalling what Minamoto Kurenai had told her before, Koizumi Anko looked back at the Kiritengu who had caught up as expected. She let out a small breath with mixed emotions and continued to run.
…
While Jiang Xia was meaning to chase, he was observing the direction of "Kid's" escape. He felt that Koizumi Hongzi's goal was very clear - it seemed that she wanted to lead him somewhere.
... After it passes, can we still be attacked by magic?
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia secretly looked forward to it and steadily chased behind "Kid" to ensure that she could successfully step into the magic trap.
Anyway, what is here is not the main body. If the puppet is injured, just adjust the distribution of the puppet clay and it can be repaired.
And if the magic power attacks the soul... that's even less of a concern.
…
After chasing the fast "Kid" for a while, Jiang Xia vaguely saw her passing an inconspicuous rain-proof cloth that was the same color as the roof of the building.
Jiang Xia glanced at it and flew straight away.
Sure enough, when he was flying directly overhead, the "rain cloth" suddenly lit up, the magic circle hidden below took effect, and a strange red light rose into the sky, covering him.
Jiang Xia's eyes dimly lit up, and he was thinking, "Unfortunately, he was attacked by a sneak attack and fell into the magic circle."
However, just as it folded its wings, it started to fall slightly, and the whole body suddenly became empty.
——The magic power in that magic circle was drained and consumed in just a few seconds.
Jiang Xia: "...?"
He was dazed for a moment by this sense of dislocation, as if he was hungry and saw a large table of delicacies from all over the world, only to poke at it with his chopsticks and find that there was just a thin piece of advertising paper in front of him.
...Compared with this empty shell of magic power, the magic power wrapped around "Kid" in front is more substantial and more refined.
The moment Jiang Xia was deceived by the "advertising paper", "Kidd" had already run a long way away.
Jiang Xia glanced at her back, and with a bit of dissatisfaction at being deceived, she speeded up and swooped down. He grabbed the magic block's shoulders and pushed the person against the side wall of the roof tower.
