Corpse collector in Conan

Chapter 106 Stop picking off your own vest

Jiang Xia was thinking about which window to sneak into the doctor's house at night. Before she could think about it, the doorbell suddenly rang.

He opened the door and found that the person who came was actually Hui Yuan Ai. The little girl stood at the door of his house with a sad and sorrowful expression. She almost had the four characters "I come to die" written on her forehead.

Hui Yuan Ai raised his head and glanced at Jiang Xia, then whispered, "Don't tell them I'm here."

Jiang Xia was startled and quickly figured out the subtext and background of Haiyuan's sad words - she seemed to firmly believe that Jiang Xia recognized her identity just like Conan in KTV.

Jiang Xia: "..."

...Why do one or two of them like to take off their vests to show him.

Doesn't he look like the kind of person who likes to pick off horses?

Jiang Xia looked at the decisive Hui Yuan Ai and sighed with a slight disappointment - the fun he had just picked up was gone.

But forget it, Haiyuan Ai will expose it sooner or later anyway, and now it's just a few hours ahead of schedule.

Jiang Xia rubbed Hui Yuan Ai's head listlessly again, and replied to what she just said: "Yes. But in exchange, you have to pretend that you don't know me - today is our first meeting."

Jiang Xia finalized this py deal with no twists and turns and no excitement in a few words, turned around and went back to the house, intending to continue rolling in ghost mints.

Hui Yuan Ai looked at his back and was shocked: "..."

Wait a minute...something's wrong!

——Jiang Xia obviously hates her so much, and he always attaches great importance to the organization's tasks. The matter of "Shirley's defection" is by no means an insignificant matter to the organization. Jiang Xia cannot let her go, both publicly and privately.

So originally, Haihara Ai's planned lines were "You can kill me for revenge, but I hope this matter can end here. Please don't take my body back to the organization and don't kill the grandpa next door." But why? …

On the way here, Hui Yuan Ai was mentally prepared to be found dead on the streets. So now, she is much bolder than usual.

She opened the door and chased Jiang Xia's house, hugged his arm, and wanted to ask clearly: "You..."

"I have never received the task of taking you back." The moment Jiang Xia opened her mouth, she nipped Haiyuan Ai's series of questions in the bud. When she entered the door just now, Jiang Xia vaguely saw the doctor carrying something. , walked over to him. If Haihara Ai's lines were too long, he would risk losing his horse with the old man.

He then said concisely: "Work is work, life is life. When I don't get a job, I just want to spend every day peacefully like an ordinary high school student. So, if possible, I hope you won't always be in front of me. Bring up the organization."

Hui Yuan Ai looked at him and was stunned.

That terrifying, cold-blooded organization that seemed to be everywhere, in Jiang Xia's eyes... was just a job? ?

Before... Before Jiang Xia disliked her so much, was it not because he was resenting his parents, but because in Jiang Xia's eyes, he was just a collateral leader who might cause him to work overtime at any time?

If you think about it this way, it is true that Jiang Xia helped find her things several times when she lost them...

Thinking of this, Haiyuan Ai suddenly felt a little guilty and a little distressed - Jiang Xia definitely didn't think so openly from the beginning. He could easily divide the organization into "work", which is actually more like "good mentality" than "work". It is the sudden calm after experiencing strong winds and waves.

Come to think of it, a year ago, Jiang Xia was still on the verge of death...

Hui Yuan Ai's hand holding Jiang Xia's arm unconsciously loosened and moved down to touch his left wrist.

Through the thin wrist guard, you can feel the raised scars on it. Hui Yuan Ai's eyes were complicated, and he paused with his fingers on it for a while, feeling that he should ask sadly at this time, "Does it hurt?"

However, when she looked up, she saw Jiang Xia silently staring at her with a condemning look that said, "I treat you as a partner and you actually molested me."

Haibara Ai:"……"

She quickly retracted her hand: "That's not what I meant!"

Jiang Xia nodded perfunctorily: "Yeah, I understand. You were just slippery and accidentally touched me." He had exactly the same tone as an honest man when dealing with the gangsters on the bus who refused to admit their guilt.

A vein popped out of Huiyuan Ai's forehead: "I...!"

"Xiao Ai! You didn't bring your lunch box." Dr. A Li's voice came from the door.

Hui Yuan Ai froze. She remembered the agreement she had just made to help Jiang Xia cover her waistcoat. She took a deep breath and swallowed back all the words she wanted to refute, almost holding back internal injuries.

In her impression, Jiang Xia was clearly a work machine with strict rules, a focus on organization, no desire to survive, no emotions, and an occasional tendency to self-destruct.

Why now...

Hui Yuan Ai's mood was extremely complicated.

But after thinking about it, I feel that this actually has this advantage - if Jiang Xia is really the character she imagined, she must have been lying on the tissue dissection table by now...

Dr. A Li walked into the room and always felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.

He touched the back of his head without knowing what was going on. He first put the heavy lunch box next to Jiang Xia, and then looked at Haihara Ai in confusion: "What happened to you just now? You rushed out of the door suddenly..."

"It's nothing." Hui Yuan Ai turned away and instantly returned to his usual cold and calm expression.

She straightened her hair that had been messed up just now, and said forcefully: "I just didn't expect that there are people who can accept the idea of ​​'adults becoming smaller' without any hindrance... I used to think that few people could accept my research theory. Accept it, so I was a little excited for a while.”

"That's it." Dr. Ali miraculously connected to the brain circuit - he understands! It's probably like meeting a soulmate. As a weird inventor, he does understand very well, but...

Dr. A Li pointed at himself and said softly, "Well, don't I accept your theory too..."

"You are different. You are older and are more receptive to this kind of strange power and chaos than others." Haiyuan Ai's eyes passed by the doctor and fell on Jiang Xia. She found that Jiang Xia had been attracted by the fragrance of rice. , opened the lunch box.

Her eyes softened a little, then she turned and walked towards the door, pulling the doctor away along the way, while instilling false ideas: "Young people are the representatives of the trend of the new era. If he can accept this, it shows that my research direction is very promising... By the way, you You haven’t told Kudo Shinichi about me yet.”

The doctor was completely led by Hui Yuan Ai. When he heard the little girl say this, he immediately forgot about the topic and replied: "Not yet."

Dr. Agasa originally wanted to tell Conan. But Haiyuan woke up faster than he thought. The doctor was obsessed with taking care of this newly found little girl. He experienced the joy of being an old father and temporarily forgot about it.

"That's just right." Haiyuan Ai walked on the street, turned around and showed an unknown smile to the doctor, "Don't tell him yet, I want to contact him myself, is that okay?"
