Conan’s Corpse Picker

Belmode recalled the reports about "Kudo Shinichi" in the past with confusion.

She vaguely remembered that cool guy not only had strong powers of observation and thinking, but also had very accurate intuition.

However, it seems now that when faced with someone like Uzo who kills several people every now and then for fun, and even kills several people in one day for fun, and has countless lives on his hands, the cool guy doesn't react much...

Is it because Uzo's acting skills are too good?

Or is it because he doesn't feel that he is doing bad things, so he can be as open as a good person from the bottom of his heart, so that the cool guy's intuition is also misled by this perception, thinking that Uzo is really a good person?

Thinking of this, Belmode felt a little complicated for a while.

At the same time, there was still a hint of fear.

...Fortunately, Uzo is not an enemy in this matter, otherwise hundreds of cool guys wouldn't be able to deliver.

…

The four of them each had their own thoughts.

Before they had time to communicate more, the car had already arrived at the crime scene.

They entered the apartment by scanning their faces and saw Kogoro Mouri smelling of alcohol.

Mouri Kogoro stood by the door, seemingly sobered by the murder, but since he had no clue about the case, he had no choice but to do what he could: he began to comfort Sayuri Shimamura, who was covering his face and crying.

…

"Haha, we meet again." Officer Takagi saw Jiang Xia, greeted him feebly, and sighed, "I didn't expect there would be another case tonight... Did you rush when you heard the siren? Are you here to help? Thank you for your hard work."

"It's nothing. If you have any cases, just come to me - I am willing to help the deceased find the real culprit and let them rest in peace. This can also make me realize my own value." When Jiang Xia talked about this, his tone was quite dull, but anyone can Hear the sincerity in the words.

He quickly threw himself into solving the case, looked at Takagi Wataru, and asked politely: "Can you tell me the details of this case?"

"..."

Next to him, Belmod looked at Jiang Xia with a vague look, with mixed emotions:

Looking at it this way, Uzo's acting skills are indeed good. In the words just now, she couldn't even see the trace of lying.

If it weren't for most of the mission targets assigned to Uzuo who died as scheduled, and Uzuo often unintentionally reveals a director's perspective that knows the outcome... maybe they really want to believe that "everything is just a coincidence" and "Jiang Xia is just a A detective with a physical constitution."

...Oh, by the way, Belmod thought, among "them", Bourbon must be excluded - if she remembers correctly, that guy does still think that Jiangxia is just Jiangxia.

Thinking again, Gin had been deceived by Uzo's "obedient subordinate" appearance for a long time...

Belmod's depression after being hit with nails all night dissipated slightly. She leaned against the wall of the corridor, lit a cigarette, and took a long drag.

——In this comparison, Wu Zuo’s words and actions just now were not directed at her, but just instinctively had a habit of playing tricks on others. In comparison, she was already the one who suffered the least damage among her colleagues.

Comparison can indeed give people a sense of superiority, and Belmode's mood gradually became happier.

…

Next to him, Jiang Xia turned her head, glanced at Belmode with her peripheral vision, and then turned back slightly disappointed.

"The first people to discover the body were Mr. Mori and Miss Shimamura." Takagi Wataru did not notice the subtle change in Jiang Xia's mood.

The honest police officer was flipping through the notepad in his hand and quietly inputting information to Jiang Xia: "Judging from the stiffness of the deceased's jaw, neck, etc., it is initially judged that her death time was around nine o'clock in the evening.

"Based on the situation at the scene, we actually think this may be a home invasion and murder case - the floor-to-ceiling windows in Miss Shimamura's room were not locked, and she was in a hurry to go out after drying her clothes in the afternoon, so she didn't care.

"And from the balcony of the emergency exit in the building, you can jump directly to the open-air balcony of their home. In other words, if the floor-to-ceiling windows are not closed, the prisoner can easily sneak into the room. The murderer may have entered the room through this entrance, and then in the living room While searching for belongings, he was discovered by the deceased... which ultimately led to this tragedy."

Next to her, Sayuri Shimamura raised her hands to cover her face, crying very sadly: "I was the one who harmed Kazumi. If I had carefully checked the doors and windows..."

Miwako Sato, who was tired from working overtime, saw her sad look and could only cheer up and comfort her.

Then get back to the main topic: "Can you tell us your actions tonight - this can provide us with some information about the robbers."... By the way, let's see if it's possible that you killed someone and then disguised it as a home invasion. robbery.

Thinking of this, Miwako Sato raised her hand and pressed her forehead: Too many similar things happened, and she was about to form a conditioned reflex. Especially when Jiang Xia is present, this famous detective seems to be able to smell the incident. Every time he appears at the scene, he basically faces a premeditated murder case... However, there are indeed many such cases, so investigate first. Acquaintance is also a necessary process.

Thinking of this, Miwako Sato couldn't help but look up at Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia saw that Jiang Xia had finished speaking to Takagi and was listening carefully to her side.

Miwako Sato nodded secretly with pleasure: Very good, there is no need to repeat it again later. Maybe even after she finishes talking to the witnesses, Jiang Xia will be able to find the murderer immediately, and then everyone can quickly end their overtime work and go back to their homes...

Sayuri Shimamura couldn't hear the police officer's complex heart sounds.

She wiped away her tears and said with sobs: "I have been working overtime at the company in the afternoon. At about seven o'clock in the evening, I remembered that Hemi had a bad cold, so I wanted to come back to see how she was doing and whether she needed my help to prepare dinner. ...It was almost eight o'clock in the evening when I got home. Kazumi was still sleeping at that time, so I didn't disturb her and left again.

"When I got back to the car, I met Mr. Mori. We went for a ride together.

"Who knows if I come back again..."

Sayuri Shimamura glanced at the blood on the floor, looked away as if she couldn't bear to look at it, and cried even harder.

"That's it." Miwako Sato listened and took note of the situation.

Sayuri Shimamura met Kogoro Mori at around eight o'clock in the evening, and the two went for a ride together, and did not come back until nearly midnight.

The deceased was killed at nine o'clock in the evening.

If this is true, Sayuri Shimamura undoubtedly has an alibi.

"Mr. Mori." Miwako Sato walked next to Kogoro Mori again, looked at the retired police officer, and found that he was no longer so drunk, so she asked, "I heard that you are with Miss Shimamura tonight. Take a ride...can you tell me the specifics?"
