Corpse collector in Conan

Vodka was startled when he heard this, and began to try hard to recall the intersection of "Uzo" and "New Weapon".

A second later, all he could think about was "the unlucky murderer who grabbed the ground with his head" and "the poster that was rolled up, stepped on and torn into pieces."

"..." However, to Uzo, these can barely be considered weapons. But it always felt like these were one-time things that didn’t warrant Uzo to specifically mention them to Gin.

In other words...

Vodka shook his head in confusion: "I've never seen him use any weapons, not even the swing stick."

Gin nodded slowly. When Vodka was thinking carefully about it just now, he also recalled the series of cases Uzo had encountered since his departure.

Then he discovered that the so-called "new tool" did not appear in any known reports or messages he received privately.

...Maybe these small scenes are not worth letting Uzo use his worth mentioning "handy tool".

Of course, it might be that he didn’t want Bourbon to see it. Uzuo has always been good at pretending to be good.

So, conversely, is that "new weapon" some dangerous weapon?

...Forget it, no need to think about it now. Anyway, judging from the situation described by Vodka, this "battle" between Uzo and Bourbon should not last long. When Uzo returns to Tokyo, he will naturally know everything he needs to know.

Of course, if it is a weapon that goes too far, it must be treated the same as a gun and temporarily confiscated.

Detectives cannot possess weapons that are too lethal. This is not good for the reputation of "Jiang Xia" and will also frighten some high-ranking clients who are timid and afraid of death...

After simply straightening out his thoughts, Gin put the matter aside for the time being, opened the laptop on his lap, and continued today's work.

Sure enough, work is more efficient when there is a driver. This way he can free his hands and eyes to concentrate on his work...

…

the other side.

Deep in the mountains of Tottori Prefecture.

The Summoning Mansion where I was before was originally on the border of Hyogo Prefecture, close to Tottori Prefecture.

So Toru Amuro followed a random direction, and not long after driving, he entered the deep forests of Tottori Prefecture from the deep forests of Hyogo Prefecture.

...Of course, to him, it makes no difference.

Tohru Amuro just wants to leave these places as soon as possible, where the roads are desolate, there are no signals, there are no villages or shops, and it is easy to get a flat tire for no reason.

However, at the same time, he knew in his heart that if the speed was too fast, it would be very dangerous if a tire burst... So in the end, the vehicle could only drive slowly in the mountains.

…

Jiang Xia took a short while to catch up on his sleep. When he woke up, he looked at the lush woods next to him and the twists and turns of the mountain road at his feet. They looked more and more familiar.

With his memory, he could remember the journey once he walked through it.

In Jiang Xia's memory, he had run back and forth on this stretch of road several times.

——Isn’t this the place that leads to the Gold Miner game point... well, to the Dusk Annex.

"Twilight Annex" was once the residence of the Karasuma family, the family of the organization's boss.

Under its old shell, there is actually a huge amount of gold hidden. When the puzzles inside the annex are solved, the mechanism is activated, and the shell of the building collapses, the glittering golden mansion below will be revealed.

The last time Jiang Xia came to Tottori Prefecture for a business trip, a bomb from Gin sent the victims of the murder to the sky. Jiang Xia always felt that he was being targeted by his leaders, so before returning, he stopped by the leader's former residence to dig for gold and relieve stress.

After that, Gin refused to show him the task list. Every time he thought of these things, Jiang Xia would put on his vest and come to the boss's hometown to have a look... After two visits, he became familiar with this journey.

In addition, in Jiang Xia's impression, the Dusk Villa can not only be used as a stress relief point after being targeted by Gin, but it is also the place where a case occurred.

——Back then, Karasuma Renya failed to find the treasure hidden in the annex, and eventually sold the annex.

The current owner of the annex, in order to find the treasure, used Kidd's name a few days ago to send invitations to famous detectives from all over the country. The plan was to wait for the detectives to arrive and immediately blow up their escape route, trap everyone inside, and threaten their lives to search for the treasure.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia couldn't help but miss the inbox at the door of his detective agency - maybe he would be on the invitation list this time.

...Unfortunately, the mailbox is far away in Tokyo and cannot be seen now.

However, after being disappointed, he then thought about it - even if he didn't receive the invitation, he still came to the vicinity of Dusk Villa with the lucky boss.

And now that they have arrived nearby, based on the experience they have accumulated during their trip to Jiangxia, they are probably not far away from entering the Dusk Villa and participating in this treasure hunt.

…

At the same time, thinking of the Dusk Villa, Jiang Xia also thought of her pile of accounts with abundant balances.

After Miss Spider's claws are strengthened with murderous intent, they are very useful whether it is climbing heights, drilling gaps or cutting gold.

Jiang Xia drove a vest, ran back and forth several times, and worked as a gold miner several times. Now, the gold in the protruding parts of the Dusk Villa, such as the eaves, roof ridges, and animal head sculptures... has all been loaded onto trucks and taken away.

After digging out the protruding parts, he got bored again and took aim at other more challenging parts - the other gold was mainly hidden in a thick layer between the inner and outer walls of the building. Jiang Xia then thinned this part of the gold evenly.

...In other words, now, even if the building shell collapses, the shape of the building that is exposed will not be too strange. At most, it will look a little earthy and lacking in sculptures compared to the original.

Jiang Xia was digging happily at the time, and later he evenly cut off one wall. It was as if he had finished playing a rough game and could no longer muster the energy to start another round.

After losing interest, he originally wanted to lose Dusk Villa to the organization in exchange for some prestige. I will find another treasure hunting spot that I am not tired of, move the treasures, and exercise.

But if you think about it carefully, Dusk Villa is the boss’s hometown after all. After handing it in, the boss will inevitably find that the shape of many buildings has changed. After digging out the surface of the building, the thinned gold layer inside may also be discovered... In short, if you are in Usa, Tokyo, and suddenly report that a missing annex in Tottori Prefecture is found, Maybe the boss will be suspicious of you instead.

So until now, Jiang Xia has not taken any action. He planned to find a suitable time to "discover" this annex again.

And today, the right time seems to have come.

And there happened to be Toru Amuro next to him.

The road was chosen by Bourbon, who had never been to Tottori Prefecture recently, and the car was also driven by Bourbon.

In this case, the gold that was poached by unknown persons in advance has nothing to do with Usa and Bourbon who happened to come to Tottori Prefecture, and it has nothing to do with Jiang Xia... Thinking of this, Jiang Xia yawned and closed his eyes decisively. Spread out on the driver's seat and concentrate on catching up on your sleep.
