Corpse collector in Conan

Toru Amuro is a man with many vests and can seamlessly switch between various identities. As long as he wants to be talkative, he can be very talkative.

He quickly blended into the atmosphere.

In fact, at first, Toru Amuro had no intention of traveling with two high school girls and an elementary school student.

But just now, when Jiang Xia saw these three people, she turned around as if she couldn't walk, and couldn't stop shouting... Toru Amuro had gone downstairs with Jiang Xia before, so it was a bit deliberate to separate now. If there is a suspicious person in this restaurant, there may be a risk of arousing suspicion.

So Toru Amuro had no choice but to follow him, and then comforted himself that it would be a good strategy to have a few more people to cover.

In addition, Toru Amuro is actually a little curious - Jiang Xia's attitude towards these people is obviously very unusual. To be honest, the moment Jiang Xia stopped when he came downstairs, Toru Amuro felt that his eyes were looking for someone to catch someone.

However, after following Jiang Xia's line of sight, Toru Amuro felt that he had made a mistake. Sitting at this table were obviously two girls and a negligible primary school student.

When Toru Amuro was getting close to his classmates, Jiang Xia looked at the B\u0026B and focused on the waiter.

There is no tough guy with dark skin mixed in there.

Jiang Xia looked at Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko again. The two of them were wearing yukata today, as if they had just returned from a festival. In addition, Suzuki Sonoko also kept a camera at hand.

...No matter how you look at it, these elements are very familiar, as if they are the configuration in a certain murder case.

And if it was really that case, then Suzuki Sonoko should have been targeted by a serial killer by now.

——After the murderous maniac was dumped by his ex-girlfriend, he hated all women who dyed their hair and liked to dress up.

He will try his best to get close to the target, lure the person to a secluded place, and then use a knife to dig out the woman's internal organs.

Tonight, the murderer actually just killed a person, and he immediately targeted Suzuki Sonoko again because Suzuki Sonoko happened to pass by the murder site on her way back from the festival.

After various coincidences, the murderer thought that Suzuki Sonoko took photos of himself during the murder.

It stands to reason that at that time in the wilderness, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and the murderer was holding a murderous weapon. Facing two weak girls and an elementary school student who might have photographed evidence of his crime, he should have rushed over arrogantly to achieve three kills and then snatch the evidence. Walk.

However, out of some intuition, the murderer ended up lying in the grass without moving, watching the three people walk away.

He silently memorized the face of the girl who took the photo, and guessed from Suzuki Sonoko's unchanging pace that she just took the photo casually and didn't realize what she had captured.

So the murderer decided to follow them, find where they lived, and then wait for an opportunity to snatch the film from the camera, and launched a series of fatal persecutions against Suzuki Sonoko.

Logically speaking, there should be a hero here to save the beauty.

But Jiang Xia looked around and couldn't see the hero.

Jiang Xia silently looked away.

Forget it, it's not important. Anyway, the murderer is a scumbag, so it's not difficult to deal with him.

More than this, Jiang Xia wanted to see the murderer as soon as possible - when she thought of the number of murders he had committed, Jiang Xia felt like she owned a persimmon tree during the harvest season, and she wanted to knock down all the ripe fruits with a pole right away.

Jiang Xia planned a plan to pick up ghosts, and the food he ordered was quickly served.

While eating, Jiang Xia asked Amuro Toru in a low voice.

Seeing that he had no intention of objecting, Jiang Xia raised her head and invited the three classmates: "Would you like to go to a nearby ceramics classroom together tomorrow? The guests of the office gave me an experience coupon. There is no limit to the number of people."

Of course the other three would not refuse.

Mao Lilan was even a little happy: "I happen to be meeting someone in a few days. I haven't decided what gift to pick out yet. Now that I think about it, handmade pottery would be nice."

Conan's ears twitched and he asked alertly: "Who are you meeting?"

Mao Lilan originally wanted to go see her mother - her mother is currently separated from Mao Li Kogoro, and the mother and daughter will go out to get together every once in a while.

However, before she said it, Mao Lilan suddenly realized that Conan was just a kid who didn't keep his mouth shut.

If you tell him about this, he might turn around and tell Mouri Kogoro, which would easily make Mouri Kogoro angry.

So Mao Lilan thought for a while, swallowed his words, and tapped Conan on the head: "Children, don't inquire about adults."

Suzuki Sonoko also nodded in agreement. After today's day, her civilianization strategy has begun to bear fruit - the effect is that it has no effect at all.

Whether it was on the tram when we arrived, or at the festival just now, or even when we were sitting here ordering food... every boy passing by was looking at Mao Lilan.

The only exception is probably Jiang Xia.

However, Jiang Xia has no reference value, because according to Suzuki Sonoko's observation, Jiang Xia has always looked at each of them equally, and even Conan has caught his gaze.

Suzuki Sonoko sighed quietly. Since I can't catch any wild handsome guys anyway, I might as well follow Jiang Xia to the pottery classroom.

Speaking of which, the boss in Jiangxia is actually quite good. Sure enough, handsome guys tend to appear in groups...

…

It was a bit late today. They made an appointment to meet the next morning and returned to their respective rooms.

Late at night, Toru Amuro went to Kikuemon's house to investigate alone, without Eka.

Before leaving, he said calmly that if there was an emergency, Jiang Xia could call the police.

There are actually quite a few members of the organization who call the police when something goes wrong. Many of the official members have certain identities in society, and they usually pay attention to not leaving evidence when doing bad things.

For them, the police are useful tools, so Toru Amuro is not worried that his identity as a police officer will be exposed if he always encourages Jiang Xia to call the police.

Jiang Xia watched Tohru Amuro leave the room, and then watched him climb over the wall.

When Toru Amuro could no longer see here, Jiang Xia left the window and prepared to sleep. He reminded the ghosts to wake him up before Toru Amuro came back, pretending that he had been watching the wind carefully.

In the eyes of the organization members, there may be a mysterious person in Kikuemon's home who is deliberately trying to eavesdrop on the organization's secrets.

However, in Jiang Xia's eyes, the "pottery used for eavesdropping" in the organization's conference room was probably made by a pottery maker who wanted to use it as a murder prop, but was accidentally sold by someone else.

The Kikuemon family didn't keep any dogs, and they didn't even hire security guards. Not to mention sneaking in, Toru Amuro even wanted to walk sideways inside, and there was no problem at all, so when Jiang Xia let his teammates go, his conscience didn't hurt at all.

…

When Toru Amuro came back, he found nothing. We can only hope for the next investigation.

The pottery classroom only opened in the afternoon. At noon the next day, the five of us had dinner and left the B\u0026B.

During this period of time, Jiang Xia finally found the person she was looking for. The murderer, dressed like a playboy in a flowery shirt, was wandering nearby.

From Jiang Xia's point of view, he was really easy to recognize - this man had four shikigami on his legs. Even if he was thrown into the crowd, he was like a bright light in the dark night, firmly attracting Jiang Xia's attention.

The murderer, Masahiko Michio, originally planned to use a beauty trick to approach Suzuki Sonoko today. Because last night, he heard Suzuki Sonoko complaining that no one wanted to talk to her.

However, he never expected that after just one night of not paying attention, a boy would be born out of thin air next to his target, and there would be two more boys at once.

Michio Masahiko secretly observed for a while, and found out unwillingly and frustrated that the beauty trick might not be effective on Suzuki Sonoko, unless she prefers the style of a decadent uncle...

But even so, we must find a way to get the film away as quickly as possible. Otherwise, once Suzuki Sonoko develops the film, he will no longer be able to hide his murder.

Soon, Masahiko Michirube saw Suzuki Sonoko and her companions leaving the B\u0026B.

He gritted his teeth and wanted to walk over, find an excuse to go with him temporarily, and then wait for an opportunity to steal the camera.

However, before that, Dori Masahiko was suddenly startled.

More than ten meters away, the five people walking together stopped.

——A woman in a black dress came out of the shadows of the corridor and stopped in front of them.

…

Suzuki Sonoko has never met Anonymous and does not recognize her.

Toru Amuro felt that the person blocking the road looked familiar, but he was not sure yet.

Mao Lilan and Conan looked at the people in front of them, shocked.

It was still the familiar long black gauze dress, the same sun hat with a wide brim, the same skin that was too pale to be human and the cold and silent aura. But now, when the two of them saw her again, they felt the same. It was completely different back then.

——Before, cold white skin would only make people think that Anonymous did not like to bask in the sun.

But now, when the name "Anonymous" appeared in their minds, Mao Lilan and Conan couldn't help but wonder whether she was a living person or a wraith.

After all, Anonymous jumped off the Shinkansen with a pack of bombs under the watchful eyes of so many people, and died a heroic sacrifice together with the bomb.

Mao Lilan's eyes widened. She felt that at this time, she should thank Anonymous for saving everyone in the car and saving her life.

But her fear of ghosts made her tremble, and she jumped repeatedly on the edge of her soul leaving her body. In the end, Mao Lilan could only bow in a non-standard manner, barely expressing her gratitude through actions.

Anonymous nodded slightly in response.

Then she held up the brim of her hat, revealing a pair of deep-set eyes, and looked at Suzuki Sonoko with a clear purpose: "Hello."
