Corpse collector in Conan

As a person who holds spoilers, Jiang Xia knows that there are ghosts to pick up at this magician gathering, and also knows that Suzuki Sonoko is one of the participants.

Originally, thinking of some of Suzuki Sonoko's little hobbies, Jiang Xia thought that she might not come to him, so he often listened to the radio during this period, planning to rush to the party to pick up the body as soon as he heard news related to this incident.

Unexpectedly, Suzuki Sonoko directly sent an invitation to go together.

After Jiang Xia replied to the text message, she licked the mermaid's tail, which felt very good, and was a little touched: "She is such a good person."

The mermaid originally wanted to slap her with her tail. But before taking action, she looked at the fresh murderous aura that Jiang Xia had just given her in her arms, hesitated for a moment, and then silently flattened out her rolled-up tail.

…

On the day of the party, Mouri Kogoro insisted on sending them there.

——This middle-aged detective does not keep up with the trends of the times, and has an instinctive resistance to the "netizens' face". He always feels that he has seen many cases of people being defrauded of money and sex by netizens before, and he must see it with his own eyes. Who are the "netizens" that we can rest assured about?

On the way, the car was filled with a happy atmosphere, even Suzuki Sonoko, who had been seriously injured when doing multiple-choice questions before. As an optimistic girl, she quickly thought of new ways to play.

Suzuki Sonoko showed an unconcealable smirk, scratched the back of the co-pilot's seat expectantly, and poked Jiang Xia with her finger: "You can take my place this time. My forum ID is 'Disciple of the Magic Messenger'."

Jiang Xia looked at her with confusion: "Replace you?"

"That's right! You don't need to reveal your real name in the forum, and you only use words to communicate. So I have been pretending that I am a boy, and I also said that I would bring friends to this party." The more Suzuki Sonoko thought about it, the more interesting it became.

Originally, she wanted to shock others because "the disciple of the magic user is actually a girl", scare netizens, and use this huge contrast to make red herrings fall under her little leather boots.

But now, because it is not easy to blatantly tease red herrings, in Suzuki Sonoko's opinion, most of the fun of losing the vest has been lost.

She thought about it carefully, and then suddenly felt that it was actually interesting to let Jiang Xia pretend to be a "disciple of the magician".

In this way, when she uses this id to troll the forum again, she seems to be able to get a different kind of happiness. If she doesn't get him, she will get his identity and so on... Ahem, cough, cough, in short, this rare face-to-face activity cannot be allowed to happen. It ends peacefully!

Mao Lilan and Jiang Xia watched helplessly as Lingmu Yuanzi smiled more and more like a villain: "..."

In the end, Jiang Xia nodded despite the expectant gaze of the "villain". Fortunately, he knew Lingmu Sonoko's true purpose, otherwise he wouldn't have dared to agree directly just by looking at her weird smile...

As for whether Suzuki Sonoko would use his name to post strange things in the forum afterwards, Jiang Xia was not worried.

——In my impression, the other members who came to the party had actually discovered that the "disciple of the magic user", who claimed to be a boy, had a tone and wording that was completely that of a girl, so the real person should also be a girl.

Therefore, Jiang Xia felt that the problem was not big. This kind of strange performance will definitely not last as long as Suzuki Sonoko expected. As soon as they met, the vest immediately fell off.

So there is no need to specifically refuse, just think of it as a thank you gift to Suzuki Sonoko for inviting him to join the case, and let her entertain herself on the road for a while.

…

Mouri Kogoro's car gradually drove into the deep forest and stopped in front of a suspension bridge.

It happens to be winter now and it has just snowed heavily. Below the suspension bridge is usually a deep, wide valley with steep cliffs, and the bridge and rope handrails are covered with a thick layer of snow.

Jiang Xia stepped onto the bridge with several other people. Amidst the creaking sound, he vaguely smelled a faint smell of gasoline.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko were concentrating on chatting and didn't notice anything unusual. Conan happened to have a cold and was wearing a huge mask, sneezing one after another.

Only Mouri Kogoro felt something was a little wrong. He looked on both sides in confusion, raised his hand and fanned in front of his nose: "Is there any strange smell?"

Jiang Xia casually tightened the scarf covering her mouth and nose, and naturally followed Mao Lilan's words, pretending that she was also concentrating on chatting.

Mouri Kogoro originally just muttered casually and didn't pay much attention to this matter.

Just as a gust of mountain wind blew by, the smell that had just gathered a little bit completely faded away. He immediately forgot what he had just thought, followed the others, and walked quickly across the bridge.

…

Across the bridge, there stood a large pine tree with branches covered with snow.

A group of people walked through the jungle with poor visibility. After walking for a while, a large three-story villa appeared in front of them.

As a parent who came for an "inspection", Mouri Kogoro straightened his collar seriously and wanted to be the first to ring the doorbell to scare netizens who might have evil intentions.

However, as soon as he took a step forward, he was ruthlessly held down by Suzuki Sonoko.

Suzuki Sonoko turned around and kept winking at Jiang Xia.

She signed up with the ID of "Disciple of Magic User", so she felt that according to the general idea of ​​face-to-face, the first person who rings the doorbell will be regarded as "Disciple of Magic User", and the others will be accompanying " "Disciple of the Magic User" friend who came here.

Suzuki Sonoko whispered with bright eyes, and added a reminder: "Don't forget my code name - 'Magic User's Disciple'!"

The code name... How come you are so middle-aged despite your age? Moreover, the code name is so long and unqualified at all. Jiang Xia sighed quietly and stepped forward to ring the doorbell.

After more than ten seconds, a kind-looking middle-aged man appeared at the door.

He is one of the participants in the gathering of magician enthusiasts and the owner of this villa, Araki Norori.

The moment the door opened, Jiang Xia quietly moved to the side, revealing Suzuki Sonoko and others behind him.

Just when Jiang Xia reported the ID of "disciple of the magic user" and waited for Huang Yi to turn his attention to Suzuki Sonoko or Mao Lilan to expose her intention of wearing a vest, Huang Yi looked at him and was stunned for a moment.

Then the uncle was surprised and said: "Disciple of the magic user...you are actually a man?! Judging from your usual words, you are completely like a little girl."

"..." Yes, your feeling is absolutely correct. So quickly take a look behind me... Jiang Xia secretly stepped aside a little.

Huang Yi finally found out that there was someone else behind him.

He looked outside and when he saw two high school girls, he remembered something and the smile on his face became strange.

Then he looked back and looked at Jiang Xia up and down with a strange look that was both "this is a talent" and "this is a scumbag".

Jiang Xia: "...?"
