Corpse collector in Conan

Underground passage, near the exit.

When Jiang Xia heard the noise, he turned around and glanced behind him, just in time to see Matsuda Jinpei and Kiritengu floating back and making an OK gesture towards him.

Jiang Xia continued to chase forward with confidence.

Just now, the sound of the explosion reached here, and the moment he turned around to look behind him, the sound of Pu Siqinglan's footsteps in front suddenly disappeared.

Some people may ignore this subtle change because of the sudden explosion behind them. But for the psychic who could borrow the ghosts' night vision ability, the grenade placed on the wall by Shi Kaobing was not an emergency.

Jiang Xia looked in front of him again, looking at the nearest corner, and sensed the motionless murderous aura on the other side of the corner.

The ghosts were also standing around the corner, pointing towards him, indicating that there was an ambush.

Jiang Xia nodded slightly and hid a lot of puppet clay in his clothes for protection. Normally, the bulge on his body might not look good, but now he was in the underground passage, surrounded by darkness, and the only light source was in his hand. The problem Not big.

Even if he was exposed, the worst he could do was end the mission early and pack Pu Siqinglan and hand it over.

Being prepared, Jiang Xia bravely rushed around the corner like a good detective chasing a criminal.

Suddenly a shadow fell diagonally above him, and a person suddenly jumped on his back, using Jiang Xia's momentum to knock him down. Pu Siqinglan pressed her knees firmly against Jiang Xia's shoulders, suppressing his movements, and stabbed an unknown potion into his arm.

With a push of her thumb, all the medicine flowed into the puppet clay.

Jiang Xia secretly turned his head and took a look.

When he was knocked down just now, he threw the flashlight around the corner. The bright beam of light was directed toward the other side, mostly blocked by the rubble. The light in the passage was still very dark, and the puppet clay was cushioned in the clothes. Pu Siqinglan didn't seem to notice.

Jiang Xia: "..." But what exactly did she call in? This is related to how I should react next... or I might as well ask.

Thinking like this, Jiang Xia imitated Belmode and let out an elegant and calm snort: "Haven't you learned your lesson yet? Poison is useless to me."

Pu Siqinglan had no intention of talking to him.

But at this time, hearing the hidden sarcasm in the words, she couldn't help but sneer: "Do you think I will fall twice in the same trap? - This is just a tube of anesthetic enough to bring down an elephant. The thing that can really send you to hell is yet to come.”

Jiang Xia: "..." It turned out to be an anesthetic, so he should go to sleep first.

He struggled a little.

Then under Pu Si Qinglan's nervous gaze and desperate suppression, she reluctantly closed her eyes.

Shi Kaobing pressed his shoulders tightly, feeling that the resistance underneath him gradually weakened, and finally there was no movement.

She breathed a silent sigh of relief - as she had thought before, although this terrible detective was difficult to kill, it seemed to take a certain amount of time for him to return to his normal state from death. Just like after being knocked down by potassium cyanide on the boat last night, it took half an hour for him to reappear in front of everyone.

In this case, other drugs should also be effective on Jiang Xia, but the dosage must be large.

Time waits for no one. After Shi Kaobing succeeded in the sneak attack, he casually pulled out the syringe and threw it aside.

Then she picked up the caught detective, ran away quickly, and quickly left the secret passage.

Pu Si Qinglan followed the entrance of the secret passage and got back to her room on the first floor of the castle. She patted the entrance of the mechanism and closed the door to the secret passage tightly. She didn't even wear gloves when she did all this, because in her plan, this place would soon no longer exist.

…

As early as just now, when she visited this old castle with the old deacon, Pu Siqinglan discovered that there was an independent generator here.

She found an oil drum from the warehouse and poured it on the ground, from the inside of the first floor to the door, focusing on the office with the entrance to the underground secret passage. She felt happy - when this place burned down, those underground people who had ridiculed her and Rasputin's people will never think about it in their lifetime.

When she came to the door, she took Jiang Xia with her.

Although I really want to throw a detective into the upcoming fire and burn it to ashes. Unfortunately, burning people to ashes requires a long process.

When going up the mountain just now, Pu Si Qinglan discovered that there was a fire station at the foot of the mountain. Once the castle is on fire, it will soon be discovered there. Regardless of whether the fire can be extinguished or not, people from below will be sent up.

There is only one winding road. If she continues to stay here, there is a risk of being discovered.

But if she just left like this... She was really worried that as soon as she left, Jiang Xia would crawl out of a ball of flames. After all, "Jiang Xia's weakness is fire" is just a guess she made that has not been tested yet.

Pu Siqinglan: "..." Again and again - she has failed twice before, and she will never fail a third time! This time she would deal with this man personally, see the entire process of his death, and never give him a chance to resurrect.

…

Effortlessly carrying people with one hand and adding fuel to the fire with the other.

By the time they reached the door, Pu Si Qinglan's forehead was already sweating a lot.

She originally wanted to enjoy the scene of the burning castle and the miserable screams of those underground when they found themselves trapped to death, but now she was too tired to be interested.

In the end, she just hurriedly lit the fire starter at the door and threw it away. Then she grabbed Jiang Xia and stuffed it into the art dealer's sports car. She also got in the car and left. She had just stolen the art dealer's car keys in the dark.

The moment the vehicle drove onto the winding mountain road, a muffled sound came from the castle.

Pu Siqinglan vaguely heard the movement, but had no time to look back. She guessed that something had been burned down, so she ignored it and stepped on the accelerator to leave quickly.

…

A minute ago, in the castle.

While Pu Si Qinglan was pouring oil on the ground, Miss Spider's puppet was silently taking shape in the corner of the roof.

The elegant woman wearing a white kimono and a bamboo hat swayed a few spider legs protruding from her back, and silently hid in the gap that Pu Si Qinglan couldn't see.

Then she began to painstakingly dismantle the ceiling in the corridor and pry loose many places under the command of Matsuda Jinpei, a professional ghost warrior.

When Pu Siqinglan started driving with Jiang Xia, Miss Spider hid behind the window and peeked out.

After confirming that the two of them had left, she raised her spider legs behind her and pushed hard into the corner.

With a "clicking" sound, spiderweb-like cracks spread along the top wall. The ten-meter-long ceiling cracked with a rumble and fell, hitting the spreading flames and extinguishing the fire that had just started, leaving only the fire in the stone foyer still burning slowly.
