Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1039 1039 [Okiya Subaru: Uzo's flaw! 】

"it is good."

Others didn't know much about the steps of taking pictures and didn't think much about it.

President Toya greeted them, and they all got on the elevators that stopped on the 1st to 8th floors, and went to the 8th floor together.

Okiya Subaru stood at the corner of the elevator, looking at the constantly jumping numbers, for some reason, he always had an ominous premonition in his heart.

……

Ten seconds later, he realized that his premonition had come true.

——With the sound of "ding", the elevator stopped at the eighth floor.

President Toya got off the elevator, looked left and right, and suddenly fixed his gaze on the side.

She let out a scream of "Ah!!", sat down on the ground in horror, raised her hand tremblingly, and pointed to the elevator next door: "Mei, Meixiang, she...!!"

Okiya Subaru: "..."

...Couldn't it be what he thought.

There was a bit of silence, at this moment, two figures passed by hula beside him——

Jiang Xia and the primary school student rushed out of the elevator. After seeing the scene outside, they were startled at the same time, and their expressions gradually became a little more serious.

Okiya Subaru looked at Jiang Xia, then at Conan: "..."

... Detectives are really contagious. A little one in the first grade looks like a finished detective at this moment.

In this way, Okiya Subaru suddenly thought: "Conan", the kid, must have been engaged in detective activities with Jiang Xia, otherwise it would be impossible to be so similar from demeanor to actions.

If you find a chance to play a trick with Conan, you may accidentally discover traces of "Uzo"'s existence—in case Uzo is actually more friendly to children and forgets to take precautions against them.

Of course, after silently remembering this possible breakthrough point, Okiya Subaru had no intention of trying.

Instead, he was going to throw this information to Akai Shuichi when he was about to retreat, and then sneaked away in a low-key manner while Uzo was busy fighting wits with Akai Hideichi...

……

The graduate student who is keen on his life, while secretly thinking about it, quickly regained his senses.

He pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and stepped out of the elevator.

Turning his head to look, he saw a few meters away from the elevator entrance, a woman fell on the ground with her head turned outward, with fresh blood oozing from her chest.

——Taniguchi Mika has half of her body lying in the elevator, and half of her body is outside.The elevator door closed from time to time, and when it pinched her waist, it would retreat due to a foreign object, and then protrude out again after a few seconds, back and forth repeatedly.

The sound of the elevator reporting an error, the sound of the iron door going back and forth, coupled with Mika Taniguchi's staring eyes, the whole scene was filled with a touch of strangeness.

……

Jiang Xia regained consciousness, came to the side of the corpse, squatted down and explored.

Then he shook his head regretfully: "Call the police."

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko immediately understood, and they couldn't help showing a sad look while taking out their mobile phones——Jiang Xia didn't mention the ambulance, so it can be seen that Mika Taniguchi is dead.

Okiya Subaru looked at the elevator that kept opening and closing, and suddenly felt like he was in a ghost story.

Seeing that Jiang Xia didn't respond, he couldn't help but walk over, trying to get the corpse out, let the elevator door close peacefully, and let the corpse lie peacefully.

But at this moment, a scream came from the ground behind him——

"...shoe prints!" President Toya, who fell down in fright, seemed to have discovered something suddenly, and she was shocked, "There is a string of shoe prints on the ground!"

"Huh?" Jiang Xia ignored the elevator doors that were closing one by one, and first pulled away Okiya Subaru who was walking over, reminding him, "Protect the scene."

Then, under the complicated gaze of Okiya Subaru "You are so skilled", he looked away, followed the prompt of President Toya, and looked at the ground:

"There are indeed footprints..."

……

The footprints were covered with dust, and they were brought out from the safe passage.

These dust marks are barely noticeable when viewed from a standing position.But squatting down and looking at the past at a certain angle, the footprints suddenly became eye-catching—it spread out from the safe passage, and when it passed the elevator where Mika Taniguchi was upside down, it turned abruptly towards the elevator, then lingered in place for a while, and then returned to the elevator. The safe passage just disappeared.

……

After a while.

"From the traces of the footprints, it may be that--

"The murderer broke in from the safe passage, intending to steal. However, when he reached the elevator door, the elevator the deceased was riding in happened to open. Certain actions of the deceased disturbed the murderer, so he was killed by the murderer. After that, the murderer was at a loss for a while. , fled in a panic."

The Mumu Police Department came with a group of policemen upon summoning.

He looked at the information in front of him, then at Jiang Xia who was loading the answer, and made the simplest guess: "The shoes are size 26, it looks like the murderer is a man."

Okiya Subaru passed by and happened to hear this sentence.

He glanced down at the shoe prints marked by the police, and couldn't help muttering: "The shoe size is indeed big enough, but the stride is not like a man's stride, but rather..."

He looked at the group of people who went upstairs just now, recalling how these people walked, his eyes slowly fell on President Toya.

Jiang Xia quickly noticed the abnormality of the new little brother.

Following Okiya Subaru's gaze, he saw President Toya, and couldn't help but raised his hand and patted Okiya Subaru on the shoulder, encouraging in a low voice: "It's a pity that you don't become a detective."

Okiya Subaru: "..."... No, he doesn't want to be a detective at all, he just wants to run to a place where there are no murders as soon as possible, and spend the rest of his life leisurely.

……

However, after briefly imagining the peaceful sea and beach, Okiya Subaru suddenly realized something.

He turned his head to look at Jiang Xia, remembering the detective's frightening speed in solving the case: "So the murderer is Hu...uh!"

He slapped him on the face, and pressed back the remaining half of the sentence.

Like a senior, Jiang Xia withdrew her hand and said in a very reliable whisper: "Before you gather all the evidence, don't say such things. If you encounter a vengeful murderer, you will be accused."

After a pause, he rounded up what he said just now: "I just think you...well, you have sharp eyes like a detective, so I'm praising you. I'm not agreeing with your deduction."

"...I see." Subaru Okiya twitched his eyes, raised his hand, and straightened his glasses crooked by Jiang Xia.

Although he was slapped in the face, but thinking about it carefully, Jiang Xia actually had good intentions...

Okiya Subaru sighed, didn't hold on to the young detective's sudden action, and said politely: "I didn't say anything just now, but I just noticed a little violation."

Jiang Xia nodded in relief: This new kid is quite witty, a child can be taught.

Next to them, Conan looked up at them, feeling a little emotional:

Jiang Xia really loves the "detective" industry deeply: I don't care if I stay in the detective agency every day and don't go home, but I am always thinking of recruiting new people into the industry-but this is also a good thing, more detectives, the efficiency of solving cases is improved , should have a considerable deterrent effect on criminals, thereby reducing crime...probably...
