Corpse collector in Conan

Chapter 482 The food chain among ghosts

Matsuda Jinpei's lighting skill is to fine-tune the explosion time point, so that the explosion time point can be moved forward or backward within about 3 seconds.

Compared with the fancy skills of other ghosts, this skill, at first glance, gives people a simple feeling of "that's it?"

But in a place where potassium cyanide is more common than stomach and digestive tablets, and bombs are more common than fireworks, this new skill can barely be considered practical.

…At least it’s better than Kiritengu’s one-click suicide.

In the distance, the foggy dog ​​was still conscientiously clinging to the arsonist, acting as a locator, unaware that he had been innocently cueed again.

The arsonist had also left the car at this time. He was standing next to the canal, holding the hostage in his hand, and confronting a group of approaching police.

——Although Sato Miwako lost track of the arsonist just now, she provided a long tracking route. Based on this information, the Mumu Police Department quickly asked someone to call out the surveillance to look for images of the arsonist as he drove away, and set up roadblocks where he might pass by, ready to stop people.

In the end, the checkpoints worked and the arsonists failed to break through the police encirclement.

The car couldn't drive through, so he simply abandoned the car and ran away randomly.

Seeing that he could not outrun the police behind him, the fleeing arsonist had an idea. When he turned a corner, he grabbed a person who was passing by, pointed his knife at the hostage, and yelled at the police:

"Don't come over!"

When Jiang Xia came to the scene, what he saw was this scene of confrontation between the two sides.

Behind the prisoner was a wide canal, and in front of him was a hostage.

Further outside, there is a half circle of police, and around the police are crowds of people.

Jiang Xia wormed her way from the crowd to the police, and then from the police to the front row.

The foggy dog ​​hanging on the arsonist breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him, and quickly flapped his wings and flew back.

It originally wanted to land on Jiang Xia's shoulder as usual, but upon closer inspection, it was discovered that there was a strange ghost there.

The foggy dog's movements froze slightly, and in the end he had to land on Jiang Xia. He found a place to grab hold of him, then raised his head and looked at Matsuda Jinpei with slight curiosity.

When Matsuda Jinpei looked at the arsonist on the Ferris wheel just now, he saw the arsonist's car, but he didn't see a ghost hiding in the car.

At this time, it was also observing the foggy dog.

Matsuda Jinpei first glanced at Kiriten Dog's wings, then turned his head and looked at the mermaid's tail next to him. Then he briefly showed an expression of broken worldview, as if he was wondering whether there were monsters in the world... As a policeman who valued physical evidence, it was difficult to accept it for a while.

But soon, Matsuda Jinpei glanced at himself silently and swallowed the question.

As a ghost, it seems not qualified to ask the question "Why are there monsters in the world?"...

Jiang Xia didn't notice the strange mental processes of the ghosts.

——After moving from the crowd of people to the police, Jiang Xia's actions became much smoother than before. The density of the police here is much smaller, and most of the police here know him, so it's not difficult to get into the front row.

Soon, Jiang Xia looked over the shoulder of the policeman in the front row and saw clearly the arsonist and the hostages in his hands.

Unexpectedly, the hostage was a young man with long hair reaching his waist and a frightened expression.

...The arsonist may have rushed around the corner in a panic when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure with long hair passing by. He thought it was a woman who was weak and easy to control, so he grabbed her as a hostage. As a result, I accidentally picked up a man.

However, although the long hair is very conspicuous. But at this time, Jiang Xia had no time to look further.

——His eyes paused on the hostage, and then looked at the hostage's legs with slight surprise.

This hostage actually had a lot of murderous aura attached to him.

In addition, he held two shikigami tightly on his legs. The shikigami seemed to be from different years, but none of them seemed fresh and had been generated for a while.

Jiang Xia looked at the long-haired hostage carefully, and then at the travel bag he was holding.

After that, his eyes glanced around the melon-eating crowd, briefly stopping for a moment on a woman with murderous intent, and suddenly remembered the identity of the hostage.

——In Jiang Xia's "Case Memory Bank", there was a stalker named "Nagai Tatsuya".

Nagai Tatsuya has recently been eyeing a woman named Nishitani Saori. Nishitani Saori soon discovered his behavior. After hesitating for a while, she fearfully chose to resign and move, fleeing all the way from Yokohama to Tokyo.

However, the peaceful life did not last long, and Nagai Tatsuya soon followed him - his family was well off, he could live well without working, and it was no problem to chase people to move.

Nishitani Saori was harassed for a long time, almost collapsed, and finally chose to call the police.

After Nagai Tatsuya was reminded by the police, he became angry. He prepared a pack of tools and planned to sneak into Nishitani Saori's house and kill the woman.

At the same time, Nishitani Saori also noticed the murderous intention from the stalker-she was riding the subway a few days ago, and when she went downstairs, she was suddenly pushed from behind. She rolled to the bottom, raised her head with difficulty, and saw Tatsuya Nagai standing on the stairs with terrifying eyes.

Since calling the police before was useless, Nagai Tatsuya became even more serious. Nishitani Saori finally followed the Romans, gritted her teeth and thought of another way - to kill this terrible man.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia once again looked at the long-haired hostage by the river. Let the ghost get into the bag the hostage is carrying and take a look at what's inside.

The foggy dog ​​flew over and back, quickly bringing the answer.

——The hostage's bag contained some lock-picking tools, as well as gloves, knives, hemp rope and other common tools for committing crimes.

Jiang Xia nodded secretly. It seems that he is really that "Nagai Tatsuya"... I'm so lucky. I just burned a lot of murderous energy today and need to replenish it urgently.

It's a pity that there are too many police and too many people around here. However, as long as Nagai Tatsuya doesn't commit suicide or tell the truth, it won't be difficult to leave the police as soon as possible after he is rescued.

By the time……

Jiang Xia was thinking with anticipation.

At this time, the murderous aura by the river suddenly swelled, causing him to squint his eyes.

Jiang Xia came back to her senses and looked towards the river in confusion. It took him a second to distinguish the arsonist and the hostage Tatsuya Nagai who were stuck together, and finally determined that the source of the sudden expansion of murderous intent was the arsonist in the rear.

—The arsonist glanced quickly toward the canal behind him.

Then he held the hostage with a knife in one hand, reached into his large satchel with the other hand, and held a fuse bomb, his eyes flashing.

"..."

Jiang Xia looked at the arsonist's subtle movements and the sudden surge of murderous intent in him, and suddenly had a suspicion about what this man wanted to do.
