Corpse collector in Conan

Chapter 1221 1221 [Belmod: Don’t let it go, it’s too much]

After that, Dr. Tanaka said leisurely: "The cause of death of the deceased was indeed drowning, rather than being killed by someone and then throwing the body into the sea. The time of death was around ten o'clock last night. The tissue fluid extracted from the digestive tract is still being tested—— But I have to remind you in advance that even if the ingredients of sleeping pills are detected, it is not uncommon for people who want to commit suicide to take pills to strengthen their courage, or to take pills to ensure mortality."

"At ten o'clock last night..."

Gao Ponytail glanced at Jiang Xia and whispered: "Is it when I went to the izakaya to find Dr. Tanaka? I remember that you and your companions were also present at that time."

Jiang Xia didn't expect that she still remembered him and nodded.

Conan clicked his chin and felt that the timing was a coincidence.

He looked at Dr. Tanaka and said in a naive tone: "Did you deliberately make trouble last night to attract brother Jiang Xia's attention, so that he could confirm that you were in the izakaya at that time and had no time to commit crimes?"

Dr. Tanaka's heart skipped a beat. Soon, the look he looked at Conan became terrifying: "I just can't stand that little brat like him who just relies on solving a few cases and then criticizes the police and doctors."

But after saying this, when the police and other doctors looked at Dr. Tanaka again, they couldn't help but think a little more in their eyes. Something about the doctor's behavior was indeed not quite right.

Tanaka Katsuyoshi noticed this, snorted coldly, simply pushed up his glasses and stopped paying attention.

He said to himself: "Anyway, that night, I was drinking in an izakaya with my colleagues - I have a clear alibi and I didn't have time to rush to the beach to kill people."

Conan saw him smiling sinisterly and confidently, and couldn't help but continue to use a child's tone: "Wow, what a coincidence alibi! I remember there were many such suspects before, and many of them were Brother Jiang Xia is sending him away." Of course, before that, they were stepped on and beaten severely by Jiang Xia, but there was no need to mention this kind of thing in front of the police...

"..." Dr. Tanaka stared at him with a sinister look, wanting to threaten him, but he didn't know where to start.

Next to him, the police officer interrupted a little awkwardly: "Well, let's wait for the test results of the digestive tract fluid first. They should be out soon. We will take a look at the specific situation then.

…

After the inconclusive discussion meeting ended, several people left the office one after another.

"Doctor Tanaka's motives and attitude are too suspicious."

After leaving the police station, Conan whispered to Jiang Xia in a low voice while organizing his thoughts: "But his alibi does exist. According to experience, this should be to confuse the time of death in some way, or to set up some kind of Timed death device..."

Jiang Xia: "..." Why can't it be another possibility - he has an accomplice?

Unfortunately, this simplest method actually has the lowest probability of appearing.

Jiang Xia actually doesn't mind encountering this kind of case, because in this way, after the murder case, he will usually encounter another "accomplices silence each other" case, which usually results in three times or more murderous intent...

Just as they were thinking, they suddenly saw a familiar person in front of them.

——Kasuga Teruhiko, the dark-skinned man who drove the speedboat for a spin, was standing alone at the door of a small shop selling seafood, looking down to select the products on the shelf with great interest.

When Jiang Xia and Conan passed by, Kasuga Teruhiko heard the footsteps, raised his head and glanced here, and the two sides happened to look at each other.

Jiang Xia then said hello smoothly: "Just you?"

"Yes." Kasuga Teruhiko laughed heartily again. He seemed to like laughing like this. "She said she was very angry, and then left by herself - that guy is really small-minded and always quarrels with me for no reason. stand up."

Conan: "..." Can that be considered inexplicable just now?

It would be weird not to be angry...

…

After all, the two parties were not familiar with each other, so they didn’t say much.

There happened to be a beach nearby. Thinking that the female body was fished out of the sea, the two detectives decided to visit there and collect clues.

As soon as they walked in, they saw Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko squatting on the beach, picking up something on the ground and whispering something.

Jiang Xia and Conan walked over with curiosity.

As we got closer, we heard Suzuki Sonoko's happy voice:

"There is such a romantic thing as a drift bottle! Hehehe, it's fate to pick it up. Let me see which destined person sent it... But why is the letter only used in an empty mineral water bottle? I thought It will be a more beautiful glass bottle, are you worried about accidentally breaking it when it floats in the sea?"

She was about to open the bottle and see what was written on the note inside.

Before he could take action, the two heads suddenly came closer, staring at the note inside the bottle through the thin plastic wall.

"!" Suzuki Sonoko was startled. She looked closely and saw that she was an acquaintance. Then she breathed a sigh of relief. "Is your meeting over? Is the murderer the doctor?"

"I feel so, but I still need to find evidence." Jiang Xia pointed to the bottle in her hand, "The words on the note don't look like they were written with a pen, but more like they were scratched out with colored stones. Ordinary people You wouldn’t write about a drifting bottle like that.”

"...Huh?" When he said this, Suzuki Sonoko suddenly felt that the bottle in his hand became strange.

She thought of the "female ghost" with long flowing hair at the bottom of the sea just now, and shuddered: "There won't be another case."

When Jiang Xia heard about the "case", he looked serious: "You'll know after you open it and take a look."

The paper stuffed into the bottle was not tied with anything. At this point it has expanded and is difficult to pour from the bottle.

Jiang Xia touched his pocket and found the magical pen from the organization. He turned it around and a blade popped out from the tip of the pen, like a sharp scalpel.

He took a pen knife and started cutting the bottle.

Although it was said to be a product of the organization, Jiang Xia later secretly confirmed that it was not mass-produced, but more like something the researchers had made for fun. There was no need to worry about others recognizing it as coming from the organization.

Of course, if it is exposed, it won't be a big problem: there is no need to explain to the black side, but to the red side, it is said that it was given by boss Amuro, and to Toru Amuro... well, it is said that it was given by "Toru Amuro". In this way, if Toru Amuro had any objections, he would just go to Belmode.

Although Belmode has a slender waist and looks weak, he is really capable of carrying a pot...

Jiang Xia gave a thumbs up to this bottle of paddling wine, which was very useful at critical moments.

…

With a slash of the knife, the "drift bottle" quickly broke into two sections, and the water-soaked note inside fell out.

When I unfolded it, I saw that there were only a few large, crooked characters carved out of stone:
