Conan: I'm not really a winery boss

Chapter 95 Preparations for Evacuation
With the help of Granny Nanao Mi, Xiaolan found a dilapidated black umbrella in the villa.

She trotted to the outside of the villa, held up an umbrella, and raised her arms to help Fu Jiang cover the falling raindrops.

At this time, Fu Jiang was soaked through.

"Why don't you go back to the villa?" Xiaolan looked at Fu Jiang's rain-soaked face in confusion.

"Don't you think it's a lot like that time with the Bandage Man?"

Fu Jiang took out a handkerchief and wiped off the water stains on the lens, "I don't really like being in the same room with murderers."

Listening to the sound of pattering rain, Xiaolan gulped.

Conan, who followed secretly, also nodded suddenly.

It is indeed very similar, the missing Miss Lihua, the empty villa, and the timely raindrops.

The only thing missing is that everyone did not find the scattered Sijing Lihua.

"Fujiang Gege, what do you think is the murderer of the second-cousin brother?" Conan glanced at the digital people sitting silently on the chairs in the villa, "Among them?"

"Obviously." Fu Jiang's mouth twitched.

Seeing that the sudden heavy rain didn't mean to decrease in the slightest, Fu Jiang grabbed Xiaolan's umbrella and walked towards the pool, leaving Xiaolan and Conan to dry in the rain.

Tomie grabbed Nikaido's left ankle and dragged him to the eaves at the entrance of the villa to shelter from the rain.

Conan, who hid back in the villa with Xiaolan, couldn't tell whether Fu Jiang respected the dead or was too wicked.

But to be honest, Fu Jiang's posture and movements of dragging the corpse are very skillful, the rhythm of walking, and the gap between every step and pause are like the murderer in the movie.

Glancing at Nikaido's abdomen that had stopped bleeding, Tomie walked back to the villa.

He took off his thoroughly wet windbreaker, found a wooden chair and put it on the back of the chair.

"Oh, you're drenched all over." Grandma Nanao, who had lived in the villa for a long time, took a look at Fu Jiang.

Then she shook her head, "It's a pity that there is no bathrobe that fits your figure in the villa."

"Just do it." Fu Jiang tugged at the collar of his shirt, and because it was soaked, the clothes stuck tightly to his body, outlining his figure.

Kogoro sat quietly in a chair, thinking about something, and the others also bowed their heads in silence.

The atmosphere is very solemn.

With his arms resting on his knees, he hesitated for a moment and raised his head.

"In the end, Miss Lihua was still not found, Nikaido returned"

"Shut up!" Mifune said angrily, "I still can't find her, maybe she was the one who killed Nikaido."

"No, it won't be." Wu Tiao was a little unsure, or dared not believe it.

If the murderer was not Lihua Yotsui, it meant that one of the people present was the murderer!

"I don't think so." Liu Tian shook his head in denial.

Whether he sincerely denies it or because of his identity, only he knows. When it comes to murder, Sijing Lihua has a criminal record, and everyone present knows it well.

"Sure... definitely not Miss Lihua." Yi Long swallowed, "If it's about murder, he must be more suspicious!"

He stretched out his finger and pointed to Fu Jiang who was sitting obediently on the wooden chair with his eyes closed and rested.

"Fu Jiang won't kill people!" Xiaolan frowned and retorted.

This guy with glasses is really too much!
Conan nodded, "Brother Fu Jiang is not a murderer."

After Fu Jiang took off his trench coat before, he glanced at Fu Jiang's body carefully.

Because of the rain, his clothes were tightly attached, and if he was carrying a murder weapon, he would be discovered immediately.

He saw the gash in Nikaido's abdomen, and although he didn't have a chance to examine it, he was sure that it wasn't caused by the ubiquitous murder weapon.

If the murder weapon had been lost, Fu Jiang would have nothing to hide after the police arrived and started searching.

Fu Jiang opened his eyes, "Indeed, I am very suspicious. After all, I have a motive for killing that is no less than yours."

Yilong secretly glanced at the digital man with an ugly face, and Fu Jiang's words were irrefutable.

"Hey, you don't really doubt us, do you?" Sanfuan saw suspicion in Long's eyes, "No matter how you look at it, he is more suspicious."

"That's right." Wujo also chose the camp, "And in the final analysis, it's strange that his car is still here without a puncture. Although it was Miss Lihua's request, but so many things happened, why is he still here?" Why don't you go?"

"That's right." Yilong looked puzzled, but started to laugh wildly in his heart.

Well done Wutiao!well said!
"Wait, him." Yilong kept backing away, seeing Fu Jiang's cold eyes moving over, he said in a trembling voice:

"He's not worried that if he wants to drive off we're going to ask to check his vehicle?"

Hum, as his words fell, everyone's minds trembled suddenly.

"Speaking of which, you were not in the hall when Miss Lihua disappeared." Liu Tian stood up and looked at Fu Jiang seriously.

"Heh, do as you please." Fu Jiang tugged at his collar feeling uncomfortable.

Clothes that get wet are really uncomfortable.

Seeing several people go out to check his trunk, Fu Jiang sighed, and then glanced at Kogoro, Xiaolan, and Conan respectively.

He explained casually: "The atmosphere between them is a bit strange, and I'm a little worried about you."

"Yeah." Conan nodded, "It seems to be related to something that happened two years ago, and Nikai-cousin and sister Lihua established a relationship at that time, maybe there is something inside."

This is also the key for Conan to alleviate Fu Jiang's suspicion. This is a matter between those digital people and has little to do with Fu Jiang.

But the more he thought about this case, the more he felt annoyed. This time the incident was a little different from what he had encountered before.

The pace of progress is very slow, as if the murderer is a slow turtle.

Everyone present did not act out of line and suspicious.

The modus operandi, without any skill, is simply piercing Nikaido with a murder weapon and throwing him into the water.

Anyone can do this. After Yilong found the bracelet of Lihua Yoshii, because it was about to rain, everyone dispersed to search in that direction to ensure efficiency.

No alibi exists for anyone.

Among them, the most suspected one is Yilong who targeted Fujiang twice and went to the toilet when Lihua disappeared, but this is also reasonable.

After all, his character is suspicious and timid. When outsiders are present, it is normal for him to hug acquaintances and point the finger at outsiders.

And the discovery of the bracelet is just a suspicious point, not enough to explain anything.

The second suspect is Wutiao. He also went to the toilet once when Miss Lihua disappeared, and he was also a guy who would agree with everything, as if deliberately disrupting the situation and causing confrontation.

As for Mifune and Liutian, they are the least suspicious. Mifune's performance does not conform to criminal psychology, while Liutian is because of identity reasons.

"I'm going to take a shower." Fu Jiang glanced at the three of them, "I'll drive you back later, and don't get involved in the consortium's affairs."

He didn't plan to stay for a long time, and he wasn't afraid that Conan would forcibly block the scene verbally. Since the police didn't come, no one had the right to keep anyone present.

If Conan really does this, Kogoro, whose mind is not too heavily eroded by alcohol, will speak out to stop him.

"Oh, good." Kogoro didn't object.

As an adult, especially an adult with a family, he knows exactly what to mix and what not to.

Whether it's Nikaido's death or the missing daughter of the consortium, it's a hot potato.

In addition to that mysterious two years ago, the ghost knows if this has something to do with a secret of the Sijing Consortium that ignored the law and used money to cover up.

Let the police deal with it. This is not the detective's business.

"But." Conan hesitated.

The case has not been solved yet, how can he leave?How about letting Uncle Mao Li and sister Xiao Lan go with Fu Jiang first?

"It's very dangerous." At the entrance of the dark corridor, Fu Jiang turned his head, "Sijing Gongping is not a kind person."

After he finished speaking, he cleared his throat, and said to Granny Nanao who was leading the way: "I'm sorry."

"What?" Grandma Nanao rubbed her ears, "I'm getting older, and I can't compare to the hearing of young people."

After leading Fu Jiang to the door of the bathroom, she nodded and said:

"Let's put the clothes at the door of the bathroom, I will come and collect them later, and take them to the air conditioner to dry them.

"Although the time of bathing may not be able to dry, it is better than wet."

"Thank you." Fu Jiang nodded and said, "Bring me another large bathrobe and a bath towel."

"Okay." Nanaomi walked slowly into the depths of the darkness.

Fu Jiang entered the bathroom, put the wet clothes into the clothes basket, and placed them at the door.

He turned on the nozzle to rinse his body with the maximum water flow, and washed the hand that dug Nikaido's abdomen with soap and shower gel over and over again.

A very subtle sound came from the bathtub, and Fu Jiang knew that it was a signal for Sijing Lihua to call for help.

She must be very eager to hope that Fu Jiang can find her at this time.

But because the lid was tightly pressed, the sound she could make was undetectable.

Tomie continued to take a shower without realizing it, and half a minute passed after Grandma Nanao's reminder came from the door.

He adjusted the water flow to the maximum nozzle and put it back on the nozzle rack.

He walked to the bathtub and squatted down, and gently lifted the lid above the bathtub.

The limp Reika Yotsui widened her eyes in surprise, and made a weak voice again.

From the snot bubbles that came out of her, you can see that she really tried her best.

Fu Jiang wiped her tears with his thumb.

Sijing Lihua's eyes became lively, as if she could speak, and she kept ordering him to rescue her quickly.
