Conan’s Corpse Picker

It now seemed that there must be something very heavy in the bag that would impede escape, otherwise the man would not have carried one and left the other behind.

As for what exactly is inside...

Based on the news he heard last night, Conan had some vague speculations.

As a child who looked to be only 7 years old, Conan consciously took on the important responsibility of violating laws and disciplines - he walked over and opened the bag of the deceased.

I was slightly startled when I saw what was exposed inside.

——The bag is full of stacks of 10,000 yen bills. The corners were stained with black blood, and some piles were more than half soaked through. As soon as the waterproof backpack was opened, a rotten smell hit him, and Conan covered his nose and stepped back a little.

Jiang Xia looked past him and looked at the money inside:

"I remember it was said in the news just now that the victim of the home invasion was the leader of a violent gang, and a total of 100 million yen in cash was robbed... It seems that's all."

One hundred million yen is enough for Gin to do it himself. I wonder if he can get a task list in exchange for handing it over to the organization.

It's a pity that Amuro Toru is nearby now. The money can only be handed over to the police and then returned to the heir of the violent gang leader depending on the situation. It always feels like a waste...

Um? etc.

Technically speaking, "Uzo" also happens to be on the mountain right now.

Jiang Xia, who is serious about being a detective and planning to leave the organization and become a good person, certainly cannot do this kind of thing like following criminals to pick up money.

…but Uzo can.

Speaking of which, in the future, if you want "Fake Uzo" to act on his behalf and use the organization's resources, you must first introduce the puppet of Matsuda Jinpei's organization - the virtual person named "Nishito" to the organization, or more Introducing gin, to be exact.

Although in Jiang Xia's view, the puppet would never leak the secret.

But for the organization, especially for Gin who attaches great importance to confidentiality, Jiang Xia suddenly found an outsider and asked him to act in the organization instead of "Uzuo" and even share some of "Uzuo"'s permissions. , undoubtedly leaking the organization’s information to unrelated people.

If Ginjiu is too rigid about the rules and kills Xitu, a tool man, with one shot as soon as they meet, and then arranges for an "elite" that the organization can trust to come and attack Jiang Xia... then Jiang Xia's new vest, which he finally obtained with great difficulty, will not be able to do anything It has been put to its due use.

In addition, there may be one more insider who knows his identity and is forced to reveal his vest - Jiang Xia really can't trust the organization and Gin's vision of selecting "elites".

So why not bring some greeting gifts to your door?

——Last time in Tottori Prefecture, after his puppet sank the organization's ship, Gin's murderous aura obviously increased, which shows that Gin still cares about the organization's funds.

Human behavior is inevitably affected by mood.

If he had brought 100 million yen with him when introducing "Nishitu", Gin might not only accept the tool he found, but also send him a long-lost assassination list to let him see what cases he could find. Go rub it...

For Jiangxia, 100 million yen is not much.

Not to mention the usual remuneration for being a detective, working part-time, and recording programs; the hundreds of millions I received during the Maple Leaf Gold Coin incident have not been spent at all. Recently, Jiang Xia has dug out several truckloads of gold from the boss's hometown, the Dusk Villa, and the money is so much that he is worried.

...But the origin of the money cannot be told to the organization.

In the former, Anonymous has come forward.

The latter... poaching the boss's family, of course you should cover it up if you can.

Not like this cash in front of me.

With the money in front of you, you can immediately throw it to the organization. You can explain the origin of the money in one or two sentences, which is safe and worry-free.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia looked at the bag filled with cash in front of her, her eyes changed slightly, and she felt like she saw a list of tasks sent by Ginjiu.

Toru Amuro and Conan didn't know what Jiang Xia was thinking.

The attention of the two serious detectives was still focused on the case in front of them.

"This money is not enough for 100 million, but 50 million is about the same... The other 50 million should be with the man who escaped after the murder." Toru Amuro looked at the blood-stained cash in the bag, and then looked at the dead body beside him, his back The woman who was stabbed:

"This couple was probably the robbers who broke into the house. It was just that the two of them started fighting internally - when the deceased heard Jiang Xia's name last night, she was frightened and dropped the spoon in her hand. Maybe she wanted to surrender or escape, but My accomplices disagree...there are indeed many such things."

Conan glanced at Toru Amuro warily: Boss Amuro seemed to be very familiar with this kind of piles of money, and even a cursory glance could tell it was not enough. Detectives don't usually receive requests of this amount. Was it because Toru Amuro often encountered kidnapping cases in the past, and the kidnappers demanded large ransoms, or... the other way around?

When two detectives are suspicious of each other.

There was a clang on the door and the client walked in.

Chao Wenzao also went out to look for someone just now, but couldn't find him, so he returned to the rest stop.

When he saw the body on the ground, he was startled: "What's going on?!"

Jiang Xia recovered from the money, turned to look at the murderous client, and explained in a friendly manner:

"Do you still remember the news you heard last night - the burglary and murderer was probably the couple we met on the road. Later they seemed to have a dispute... and then it became like this."

Chao Wenzao frowned and whispered: "So they are not silver foxes..."

...Even if Silver Fox suddenly grabs a ticket when he passes by a nearby village, after that, he or they will not run up the mountain to carry out an assassination mission carrying such a heavy load of dirt.

Take away the lovers, take away the male college student who was plotted by the silver fox and unfortunately fell off the cliff, and take away the hired detective and the detective's classmates. Of course, the seven-year-old child must also be excluded. The only ones left are Etsuko Tokura, and... that administrator?

Shiofunzao thought for a moment, then suddenly walked to the corner, grabbed Tokura Etsuko's bag, turned it over and shook it.

The contents of the bag clattered to the floor.

Drinking water, a change of clothes, a few books, notebooks and pens...

There are no iconic throwing knives, crossbows, or other weird stuff. This doesn't look like Silver Fox's luggage.

Chao Wenzao glanced at the contents inside, dropped the empty bag, pushed the door open, and chased into the deep forest.

——Etsuko Tokura is also eliminated, and the only one left is the administrator!

"..."

Tokura Etsuko looked at the slamming door in surprise, walked to the luggage scattered on the floor with a frown, and put back the things that had been thrown out one by one. She was a little angry: "It's so rude..."

After a pause, she suddenly remembered something and looked at Jiang Xia and his group in confusion: "The 'Silver Fox' you just mentioned is..."

Before he finished speaking, a group of detectives slowly opened the door and chased in the direction the client left.
