Corpse collector in Conan

When Jiang Xia arrived, Conan and Mao Lilan were already in the car.

Mouri Kogoro did not come, Jiang Xia was not surprised by this result - today, Kinoshita Yoko has a concert.

The Sherlock Holmes Tour has been held for many times and is relatively well-known among relevant people. Although it is not large in scale, it can still be regarded as a formal event.

In addition, Mouri Kogoro heard that Jiangxia would also go, and there was support from both sides, so he decisively chose Kinoshita Yoko just like Conan chose Sherlock Holmes.

In addition to Jiang Xia and the others, there were four other people in the car.

Of course, there are more than just people involved in Sherlock Holmes' trip - in addition to this car, there is another car traveling to Kansai to pick up people.

The vehicle drove into the mountains and stopped next to a cliff.

There is a three-story building here, which is a hotel. This is the venue for the Sherlock Holmes Tour. The hotel owner is also the event organizer.

Jiang Xia walked out of the car with her luggage on her back, glanced at the garage, and found that another car had arrived, which meant that other people should be gathered in the lobby of the hotel at this time.

He entered the hall with great expectation and unexpectedly saw a stranger with murderous intent all over his body.

Jiang Xia's eyes paused on this person for a moment, and then quickly looked towards the corner.

In the corner, there stood a dark-skinned high school detective wearing a baseball cap - Hattori Heiji, who was also here.

Jiang Xia was immediately relieved.

Conan and Hattori Heiji are both gathered here, and this Sherlock Holmes journey is destined to be uneventful.

Moreover, with so many people involved, it has far exceeded the scale of an ordinary murder case of choosing one of three... Hattori Heiji's physical bonus to serial murder cases is truly well-deserved.

…

The owner of the hotel is a middle-aged man named Jin Gu. He is fat and wears a Sherlock Holmes cosplay suit.

Kanaya welcomed the guests who came to the event and then began to announce the schedule of the competition.

Jiang Xia was listening, but suddenly felt his hair being gently pulled by Xiao Bai. He lowered his head and saw Xiao Bai pointing at the door as if he was complaining.

Jiang Xia looked along and saw Hattori Heiji behind the crowd pressing the brim of his hat down, and then the man walked quietly towards the door, as if he wanted to run away.

A while ago, Hattori Heiji went to Tokyo full of passion, planning to compete with Tokyo's high school detectives.

However, the evenly matched and hearty competition that he imagined did not exist at all. He was crushed in the area of ​​solving crimes that he was best at.

Maybe it was because of the huge gap between before and after. After Hattori Heiji returned to Osaka, the more he thought about it, the more boring his life became, and he couldn't even find the energy to solve the case.

In order to get out of this trough, he thought about it and felt that he still needed to find a soul rival to compete with each other and make progress together.

Of course, the first choice for this opponent is Jiang Xia.

After that, Hattori Heiji picked among the remaining high school detectives and found that Kudo Shinichi was the one that suited him best.

Although there were rumors that Kudo Shinichi had been killed, Hattori Heiji personally went to Maori's house before and learned from Maori Ran that Kudo Shinichi would sometimes call her.

Mao Lilan said that Kudo Shinichi never asked about her current situation on the phone. At first glance, this sounded like Mo's emotional scumbag, but Hattori Heiji deduced from this that Kudo Shinichi was not dead, on the contrary, he was very Maybe he was hiding near Mao Lilan and could see Mao Lilan's situation with his own eyes, so he didn't ask too much.

In this case, it must not be difficult to find someone.

In addition, Hattori Heiji has a little idea.

——Jiang Xia once invited him to transfer from Osaka to Tokyo. In other words, Jiang Xia is also looking for a suitable opponent.

But Jiang Xia did not go to find Kudo Shinichi nearby, but instead came to find him, the Osaka detective. This shows that Kudo Shinichi's "disappearance" was very successful, and Jiang Xia must not know where Kudo Shinichi is.

...In this case, if he found the hiding Kudo Shinichi first, wouldn't it mean that he had defeated Jiang Xia?

When Hattori Heiji thought of this, he felt that his life had regained hope and was full of energy.

As for how to find it specifically... As we all know, Kudo Shinichi is a Sherlock Holmes fan. In addition, in Hattori Heiji's view, "brain use" can also be addictive - since Kudo Shinichi was forced by Jiang Xia to solve the case, he will definitely release his overly active thinking through other methods, such as participating in Sherlock Holmes journey and compete with other normal people.

This is why Hattori Heiji signed up for this Sherlock Holmes trip.

However, he never expected that after arriving here, before seeing the shadow of Kudo Shinichi, he would first see Jiang Xia in the crowd.

At that moment, Hattori Heiji felt bad.

In order to investigate Jiang Xia's ability to solve crimes, he had collected information related to Jiang Xia, but he had never heard of the news that "Jiang Xia likes Holmes".

After Hattori Heiji was shocked, he had some vague guesses:

Jiang Xia came here, perhaps to catch Kudo Shinichi - look, Jiang Xia not only came by himself, he also kidnapped Kudo's girlfriend.

If you want to concentrate on the competition, there is no need to bring a classmate who is not familiar with Sherlock Holmes.

In other words, Jiang Xia's move may be to force Kudo out of the darkness.

Hattori Heiji himself also has a childhood friend who grew up together - Toyama Kazuha.

At this moment, he couldn't help but take it in, thinking that if Jiang Xia took Yuan Shan and Ye out to play in order to catch him... he suddenly felt a shiver in his back.

...It’s so insidious.

No one can hold back from showing off.

Jiang Xia is not as harmless as he appears. On the contrary, he is simply a hidden demon who will do anything to find his opponent.

But now, Kudo didn't show up...

Hattori Heiji thought for a moment and felt something was wrong.

Regardless of the reason why Kudo refused to show up, this would lead to one result - apart from the two of them, there was no third high school student detective present.

In other words, Jiangxia will definitely turn his attention to Hattori Heiji.

…This won’t work.

After realizing this, Hattori Heiji decisively decided to leave.

He had no interest in Holmes to begin with. Now that Kudo can't be found and Jiang Xia is likely to target him, he certainly has no reason to stay.

However, Hattori Heiji just walked to the door as if nothing had happened.

His arm suddenly sank and someone grabbed him from behind.

Jiang Xia's cheerful voice came from behind: "What a coincidence, you have also signed up for this event - it hasn't started yet, why are you leaving suddenly?"

Hattori Heiji, who was only one step away from the door: "..."

He silently glanced at the clear blue free sky outside, quickly collected his emotions, and turned around calmly: "...I don't want to leave, I just think the air at the door is better."
