Corpse collector in Conan

Jiang Xia always felt that if Okiya Subaru and Akai Shuichi came into contact, he would not be there.

So rather than "relying on transmitters and bugs to intercept intelligence," it is more likely that those surveillance props will be quietly disposed of by Shuichi Akai. If you want to continue tracking then, you will have to wait for the next mission.

...In short, it's best to recover those little things in time before they are discovered.

——Although Subaru Okiya doesn't have the habit of checking himself all the time, that's because no one has had close contact with him in the past few days. The only person who was close enough to quietly place a bug on him was a cat that happened to pass by.

In this case, if the transmitter on Subaru Okiya is discovered, the cat may be suspected by some cautious and intuitive people... This is not a good thing. After all, all the vests currently combined will Only cats are the most suitable for tracking - they don't even have to hide their figure. If they meet someone who is friendly to cats, they don't have to walk hard by themselves. They can just lie on the person's shoulder and take a ride.

When they first met, Jiang Xia had wanted to use a cat to find Okiya Subaru's residence.

It's a pity that at that time, Subaru Okiya was infected by the professionalism of his new boss and became too dedicated. He stayed near the mission target and stayed in a hotel... Now that the mission is over, he will finally return to his hometown.

…

The taxi soon arrived at Miwa Town.

After sending the two children away, Jiang Xia returned home.

Then he went in through the front door and slipped out through the back door, ready to start tracking.

…

Cupido Town.

In the cafe next to Wan Guanyi's family.

Although it is already dark, it is still some time before the store closes.

Sitting in the corner seat, Okiya Subaru was typing his paper against the clock with a cup of steaming coffee in his hand.

You are most productive when you take a break from your busy schedule.

——In the past few days, Okiya Subaru has been prioritizing Usa’s mission. Compared with this kind of life threat that always hangs above his head, the paper has turned out to be the lovable "idle"... This contrast is so strong that now, even if Uzo's mission has been completed, as long as he sits down Sitting in this seat in the coffee shop, Okiya Subaru can still feel the happiness he felt when writing a paper a few days ago, and his efficiency is much higher than usual.

...Of course, this was just one of the reasons why he didn't leave immediately.

Another reason is that the police are still dealing with the follow-up at the construction site and Watanukiyi's family.

——Since this matter is not completely over yet, Subaru Okiya feels that he needs to keep an eye on it until the last moment to prevent any accidents. He has always been a cautious man.

…

Several hours passed.

When the coffee shop was about to close, the police finally retreated.

Okiya Subaru looked at the situation over there from a distance, and his half-suspended heart finally fell to the ground.

He took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Uzuo: [Yiichi Watanuki's deeds have been exposed and he has been arrested].

Not long after, the phone rang.

Okiya Subaru quickly clicked on it to check, and found that the other person only replied:

[good]

"..."

Okiya Subaru read this simple word back and forth several times, but it was still difficult to figure out Usa's true tone and mood.

Fortunately, one thing is certain.

——The mission finally ended successfully...

Subaru Okiya leaned back in his chair, took a sip of coffee, and breathed out slowly, feeling like an invisible burden had been lifted off his shoulders.

He put away his computer and prepared to go home.

As soon as I walked to the door of the store, out of the corner of my eye, I saw something stepping on the billboard next to me.

This time, Subaru Okiya was much calmer.

He turned around and looked over, and sure enough he saw a familiar cat on dark clouds and snow.

This cat has no cat tag around its neck, and looks like a free cat that uses the neighborhood as its territory. At this time, the two sides looked at each other, and the cat shook its tail as usual, as if to say hello to him.

Okiya Subaru nodded to the cat in a good mood.

In the past two days, Subaru Okiya often saw this cat. Sometimes the cat would sneak into the cafe and lie down next to his seat, staring at his mobile phone or computer screen. It looked like it was the most intelligent cat among cats and wanted to be like humans. The look of being together.

That cafe is not a cat cafe. Logically speaking, pets are not allowed in, but a cat like this walks quietly and is very good at hiding. I guess as long as no customers report it, it can stay in the cafe safely. in the hall.

Okiya Subaru didn't become the whistleblower - he didn't hate cats, and he was under a lot of pressure these past two days. There was an elusive cat next to him, which could be used to relieve stress.

However, today is the last time we meet. After the mission is completed, there is no need for him to continue coming here.

Okiya Subaru: "..." Thinking about it this way, I'm still a little reluctant to give up... Hiss, in fact, when you need to study for your thesis in the future, you can definitely come to this shop to sit down. On the one hand, it can improve efficiency. On the other hand, if Jiang Xia really feels that "Okiya Subaru" is suspicious because of today's incident, then if he shows up more in this area, wouldn't it increase the awareness that "Okiya Subaru is always here"? Haunted and just stumbled upon the body” possibility.

…

Okiya Subaru thought as he walked towards the parking lot.

Then soon, as he was preparing to go home, he suddenly realized that he was not the only one who felt reluctant to leave.

——The black cat with white paws actually followed him.

The moment he opened the car door, he jumped into the car very naturally, and then lay down comfortably on the passenger seat, as if he wanted to take a ride.

Seeing that Okiya Subaru froze, he turned his head and glanced, as if he was urging him dissatisfied.

Okiya Subaru: "...?"

……What's the meaning?

Is this cat dependent on him?

...Haha, don't you think that he seems to be a good-tempered human being who would randomly pick up strange cats and take them home.

…

five minutes later.

Okiya Subaru drove the car and walked on the way home.

Lying on the passenger seat was a yawning Wu Yun walking in the snow.

"..." Subaru Okiya pushed up his glasses silently.

...He really won't pick up a strange cat and bring it home. He's not that casual.

But over the past few days, this cat has become quite close to me. Judging from the frequency with which stray cats meet people, it can definitely be regarded as a familiar cat... In addition, it is rare to meet a cat that is so close to people. Now that I am about to leave my hometown with the FBI, I can take the cat I picked up from my hometown with me to relieve my homesickness...

Next to him, Jiang Xia did not study Okiya Subaru's complicated mood.

What he originally thought was that if Okiya Subaru could accept a ride with a cat, then he would just hitchhike and follow him.

If that doesn't work, take advantage of Okiya Subaru's unpreparedness, spread it out into a cat cake, and hide it in any part of the car. Anyway, just follow him to the place and you'll be done.

…

As expected, the car did not drive to the "Tokuma Manor" where "Okiya Subaru" lived in the original world line.

Instead, we drove through the city center and drove to Toei Town - not far from Toto University, right between the university and the bustling city, and it was very convenient to go to both sides.
