Corpse collector in Conan

"..."

Toru Amuro was a little embarrassed at first.

But then he thought about it, and his plan was to go directly to the mission location after resting in the city.

In this case, the dice used to find the way will never be used again.

He walked to Jiang Xia's side naturally and looked at the dice in Jiang Xia's hand doubtfully, as if he was thinking about why he had this on him.

After a moment, he suddenly said as if he remembered:

"I used to work in a bar. When I was counting the items, I found that a dice was missing. It seems that it accidentally fell into the clothes. No wonder I heard a clicking sound in the washing machine before."

As he said that, he waved his hand nonchalantly: "I've already paid compensation. It's such an unpleasant memory... Just find a place to throw it away."

Jiang Xia responded.

Then he lowered his hand naturally and threw the dice into his pocket.

…The boss doesn’t want it anyway.

Toru Amuro: "...?"

He was stunned for a moment. For some reason, Toru Amuro suddenly suspected that Jiang Xia knew the true purpose of the dice - to find random paths.

However, if you think about it carefully, every time you roll the dice in a place that blocks Jiang Xia's sight when Jiang Xia closes her eyes to catch up on her sleep, Jiang Xia should not be able to see it.

...Maybe he just simply likes such shiny things.

Toru Amuro thought of the exquisite shape of the crystal dice - considering Jiang Xia's keen insight, in order to have an excuse in case he was discovered, he deliberately found a gorgeous crystal dice to go with the pre-planned statement just now. dice.

Unexpectedly, now, the dice are so gorgeous that Jiang Xia takes a fancy to them...

It's not that he is reluctant to give away the dice, but Toru Amuro always feels that it is not good to stay with Jiang Xia with this dice that symbolizes bad luck.

...But thinking about it rationally, the murder was not caused by the owner of the constitution in question. It's just that people with event physique often encounter accidents unluckily.

In other words, even if Jiang Xia's physical condition has improved after bringing the dice, it actually doesn't matter. Instead, it can help the police solve many mysterious cases. The only problem is that those who travel with Jiang Xia may suffer a lot.

"..." Thinking of this, Toru Amuro, who had stayed up all night, stopped worrying.

He yawned and got into the police car heading back to the city.

…

Jiang Xia quickly followed the car.

He glanced to the side and found that Toru Amuro had fallen asleep leaning against the back of the seat not long after getting in the car.

"..." It seems that Night Owl is slightly less powerful than Gin.

Jiang Xia secretly compared the strengths of the red and black sides and came to the conclusion that it was useless.

Then he took out the dice with confidence and admired it in the light.

Although there are so many cases encountered along the way, it should mainly be the credit of the boss.

But thinking on the bright side, maybe this dice is actually a good dice with event constitution.

——Before, Jiang Xia had made the plan to "if the dice didn't turn out well, he would find a way to do something." But in fact, along the way, he didn't have many opportunities to intervene.

...Because he actually doesn’t know where there will be a case.

In short, Jiang Xia feels that this dice is very good at choosing paths and may bring good luck to the psychic.

If you can't find an event physique to rub on one day, you may be able to follow its directions and take a walk to relax your mood...

…

Jiang Xia's main body was hung up all night, and while the puppet was sucking ghost mint, it also absorbed some murderous aura that could replenish energy.

So now, not only was he not sleepy, but he was quite energetic because of his abundant murderous aura.

The vehicle was moving smoothly, and Jiang Xia looked out the window at the winding mountain road in boredom. She felt that this kind of environment was very suitable for encountering certain incidents and then naturally getting a flat tire.

However, I don’t know whether it’s because there are no dice to guide the way, or because the magical boss who looks like a double experience card is catching up on his sleep, or because the cases in this area have unfortunately reached saturation...

In the end, until arriving at the police station, there were no signs of a tire blowout or a tire blowout by a passerby or a sudden collapse of the road.

Jiang Xia looked at the peaceful police station door and sighed quietly.

…

As the police car stopped and turned off.

Toru Amuro noticed changes in the surrounding environment and opened his eyes alertly.

When he looked out the window, he found that it was actually the target police station and not some strange forest villa. He breathed a sigh of relief inconspicuously.

Then he seemed to feel better.

Jiang Xia glanced at him vaguely, and suddenly felt that this was like some kind of strange conservation law - the boss was happy, but to be honest, he was a little disappointed now...

However, because a certain psychic's expression management was still in place.

Toru Amuro failed to find any clues.

He got out of the car, stretched out comfortably, looked at the bustling urban area in the distance, and began to think about any restaurants or attractions worth visiting nearby just like he did when he was on a business trip.

Although he was worried about encountering a murder case when there were too many people, he thought about it: these days, he and Jiang Xia had been going to places with few people, but had the chance of encountering a murder case been reduced?

No.

...Since the probability of encountering a case has nothing to do with the number of people around you, then why bother yourself and have to hide in places where no one is around?

There's no way to avoid it anyway. Maybe detectives have the fate of being summoned by events...

After an unforgettable journey, Toru Amuro finally reached a compromise with himself.

…

Having just caught up on some sleep in the police car, Toru Amuro was not so sleepy for the time being.

After accompanying Jiang Xia into the building to make up the notes about Kidd, Toru Amuro left the police station with others and found a place to settle down first - so that he could take a rest midway and wait for his subordinates to finish searching for ventilation ducts and find out Matsuda's work, let's start together again.

After one hour.

The two of them booked a hotel, and then had a peaceful meal without screams at the highest-rated restaurant nearby.

During this period, Toru Amuro asked Jiang Xia about the details of his encounter with Kidd.

After listening to his description, I didn't find any problems, so I nodded and started thinking about how to get to the mission location with as little delay as possible.

After dinner, on the way back. There were many passers-by wearing kimonos coming and going.

——Zhifeng University nearby is holding a theme cultural festival. In addition to the lively stalls of students, the school also opened some old historical buildings, attracting many people from society who come for sightseeing.

Toru Amuro looked at the scene full of laughter and laughter, and smiled a little for this harmonious picture.

The next second, a heartbreaking shout suddenly came from the nearby mansion:

"Ah——!! People are dead!!!"

The passers-by who were laughing and talking just now were startled and froze. A gust of cool wind blew by, the branches on the roadside swayed, and a few dead leaves swirled and fell. The atmosphere changed in an instant.
