Corpse collector in Conan

Chapter 1278 1278 [Organization to follow people-1]

The high school students couldn't help but become a little confused when they heard the names they called each other and looked at the two of them.

The two people opposite noticed their gazes.

The young man among them was a bit thin-skinned, smiled sheepishly, and explained: "This is the name agreed upon by our 'Taiko Hideyoshi Eight-Day Trip' - all the people who came to participate in this trip are Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Fans, we didn’t know each other before, and we only came together through the Internet, so in order to get familiar with each other as soon as possible, and to avoid the embarrassment of calling the wrong name, we will draw lots every day to determine the identity, and each person will play a role.”

He pointed to the badge pinned to his chest, which was a five-petaled flower with Akechi Mitsuhide's "platycodon pattern".

"The person who draws 'Oda Nobunaga' is today's lord. Everyone will pretend to be retainers in ancient times and help him do some simple things. For example, help him run errands, take photos, or whatever 'Oda Nobunaga' thinks of other requirements."

Just as he was talking, another voice came from the side.

This time it was a slightly hoarse female voice. The person who came was obviously a member of this weird tour group and knew the rules of the game very well: "However, on the other hand, Oda Nobunaga also had to spend money to treat Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu. dinner."

As for why the "lord" has three "subordinates" but only invites two of them to dinner, it is because Mitsuhide Akechi is a traitor.

——Historically, when the "lord" Oda Nobunaga was about to unify Japan, Akechi Mitsuhide staged the famous Honnoji Incident and assassinated Oda Nobunaga and his successors.

After that, Toyotomi Hideyoshi gradually took over the power in the hands of the "lord" and achieved the general unification of Japan.

…

Several high school students heard the woman's words and subconsciously looked at her chest, but did not see the corresponding family crest.

The woman noticed their gazes and elegantly raised her hand to push up her glasses: "The one I drew today is 'Ning Ning'. I don't have to do anything, just look at them with a smile."

——Ning Ning is the first wife of Toyotomi Hideyoshi and one of the "Three Ladies of the Warring States Period".

Jiang Xia looked at them for a while and praised them kindly: "It's a very creative game."

The young man just now straightened his back instantly and regained his confidence: "Haha, indeed!"

Several high school girls seemed to find it equally interesting and started discussing: "But the person who got Mitsuhide sounds so miserable. Not only does he have to please others, but he also can't get dinner."

"There are always winners and losers in the game." Another person appeared out of nowhere, with the lord badge of "Oda Nobunaga" on his chest. He smiled, "But as a balance, 'Akechi Mitsuhide' has A privilege - he can choose to be the 'Lord' for three minutes every day, which symbolizes the power he once briefly gained in the world."

A total of four people from the tour group appeared. Now, except "Toyotomi Hideyoshi" who has not yet appeared, everyone else is here.

The bald man who looked very embarrassed just now actually showed a friendly smile when he saw the "Lord". He picked up the tea in his hand and said: "Lord Nobunaga, here, this is the oolong tea you ordered."

"Lord" touched the back of his head sheepishly and took it: "Thank you very much."

Hattori Heiji and Conan's eyes twitched slightly. They felt that this pretending game was too childish and they didn't want to have too much interaction with this group of people.

Toyama Kazuyo obviously found it interesting. She looked around: "Why don't you see 'Toyotomi Hideyoshi'?"

The Lord pointed to the exit: "He just answered a phone call and then ran away in a hurry."

Toyama and Ye laughed: "Did he go to inspect the Osaka Castle he built before?"

As she was talking, a black hand suddenly stretched out from behind and pulled her.

Hattori Heiji whispered: "Ignore these strange guys and leave."

After pulling Yuan Shan and Ye, there was still a person standing there reluctantly.

Hattori Heiji took a closer look and found that it was Jiangxia.

He was about to continue pulling people, but suddenly he remembered something and stopped, his eyes brightening: "How about you go play with them?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Jiang Xia is our guest. It doesn't matter if he runs away with others." Yuan Shan and Ye hugged Jiang Xia's arms.

Suzuki Sonoko originally wanted to reach out, but after a moment, she looked at her thin arm and poked Mao Lilan instead.

Mao Lilan understood immediately and helped hold the other side. With a little force, the two of them successfully dragged Jiang Xia away from the guys who were playing roles.

Jiang Xia: "..." Wait, I'm not really going to participate, I'm just taking a look...

…

Several people finally left the castle tower and separated from the adults who were immersed in role-playing, each doing their own thing.

"It's almost noon, let's find a place to eat first." Hattori Heiji is indeed more skilled in being a tour guide. He raised his hand and pointed, "Follow this side, there is a food street across the river. It's not that It’s a very famous street, but the taste is actually good, there are few people, and there’s no need to queue.”

Jiang Xia looked back at the castle tower and nodded - he still trusted Hattori Heiji's vision in choosing a hotel.

The food court is about one or two stops away from here.

There were many scenic spots and landmarks nearby. They simply didn't take a car and walked all the way there, taking in the scenery along the way.

…

When they arrived at the river and were about to cross the bridge, several people were suddenly startled.

——The sound of police sirens actually came from the front.

"..." Yuan Shan and Ye's expressions changed slightly, and they wanted to take another route.

But before she could speak, the three detectives disappeared from her side in an instant. Taking a closer look, I saw them all flashing to the edge of the bridge and looking under the bridge from a distance.

After a while, Hattori Heiji recognized the leader and waved over: "Uncle Otaki!"

Then he climbed over the fence decisively and descended to the open space by the river.

Otaki Police Department heard someone calling him and turned around in confusion.

Then I suddenly saw a few familiar faces. He looked at the detectives and couldn't help but remain silent for a moment.

…

Jiang Xia also slid down.

Looking around for a moment, I saw a person lying on his back on the riverbank under the bridge.

The man had thick lips and a scar from a blunt instrument on his head. He fell to the ground motionless, his chest was not moving, and he looked dead.

His bag fell to the side, spilling some of its contents. The wallet was also lying on the ground, bulging with quite a bit of money inside, so it didn't look like a robbery.

And next to the wallet…

Jiang Xia took a closer look and found that it was actually a telescope.

Jiang Xia: "..." He actually carries something like this with him, as if he is monitoring something.

While he was thinking deeply, he picked up a ball of murderous aura on the ground next to him, and stuffed the ball into his own tattoo space - judging from the position, it seemed to have fallen from the dead body. It seems that this is not an ordinary person.
