Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1118 1118 [Revenge Handbook]

Okiya Subaru thought to himself: The fact that Uzo's cat is here probably means that Uzo is here.

——This also means that the case just now was not a coincidence.

……

Akai Shuichi didn't have that many thoughts.

On the contrary, he felt that since Uzo had said that he would condone his subordinates' "secrets", the chances of Uzuo immediately attacking "Okiya Subaru" were actually not high - there are plenty of opportunities for ruthless cadres who want to kill their subordinates.Compared with this, Akai Shuichi was more worried that when he was not around, Uzo suddenly came to interview, and then found some fatal problems from Okiya Subaru's abnormality.

So at this time, Akai Shuichi calmly proposed another possibility:
"I remember that you raised it for a few days before, maybe it was at that time that the cat recognized the door of the house-in fact, when I was watching people outside for a while, I occasionally saw cats of similar colors passing by from a distance. Every family visits, especially in the vicinity of Mihua Town and Kudo Town, and it is often seen.

"Thinking about it, it might just pass by your house and go in for a walk.

"In addition, it's also possible that it's not Uzo's cat at all, but it just happens to have the same coat color—cats have a strong reproductive ability, and they reproduce from litter to litter. In an area, there will always be many cats with similar coat colors. cat."

Moreover, Akai Shuichi thought to himself: No matter what, it's just a cat.

If it is a dog, it is possible to receive certain training and go to Okiya Subaru's house with a certain purpose.

But the cat... Even Uzo, he must not have trained cats to this level—that man is an organized crime planner and a killer with insight into people's hearts, not an animal breeder, let alone a circus animal trainer division.

Rather than panicking over a "Uzo's cat", Akai Shuichi thought more about how to take the opportunity to install a transmitter on the cat and follow along to Uzo's lair.

"..." It's a pity that since Wu Zuo dared to keep pets, he probably wouldn't make such a simple mistake.

Moreover, it is now at a critical period when the secret of "Okiya Subaru" is exposed and is being watched by Uzo.At this time, whether it is for Akai Shuichi or Okiya Subaru, it is the best choice to settle down temporarily.

Akai Hideichi rubbed the handle of the gun, regretfully suppressing this thought.

……

In the distant apartment.

After listening to Akai Shuichi's statement.Okiya Subaru stared at the black cloud treading snow cat in front of him for a long time, but he was still not sure whether it was the boss's cat or not.

Okiya Subaru: "..." In short, to be on the safe side, it's better to treat it friendly first.

And after all, it's the Uzo that's scary, so what's wrong with cats? ——Strictly speaking, this cat and I should be regarded as colleagues.Rounding it up, it can be regarded as sympathy and pity for each other.We should be kinder to each other...

After muttering like this for a long time, Okiya Subaru finally couldn't help stretching out his hand, and touched the cat's head with lightning speed.

After that, he withdrew his hand at about the same speed, pushed his glasses, and looked around calmly, but he didn't notice that Uzo came out to swear sovereignty over the cat, so he relaxed a little.

Okiya Subaru: "..." I hope it is true as Mr. Akai said, the cat just passed by by chance, and the case just happened by chance.

...In short, don't let him meet Wu Zuo again today, or be involved in the script written by Wu Zuo.

Okiya Subaru secretly prayed in his heart while petting his boss's cat.

……

Jiang Xia didn't know about the true and false "Okiya Subaru"'s speculation and panic, and didn't care too much.

Originally, he planned to drive Matsuda Jinpei's "Uzo" vest to visit Okiya Subaru's house.

However, if Matsuda Jinping is allowed to open the puppet, Matsuda Jinping's "Uzo" can only act and cannot speak human words, so it is inconvenient to have friendly exchanges with younger brothers.

And if Jiang Xia possesses himself as a puppet, his body will freeze and hang up again.

After solving the case, when leaving the apartment.Jiang Xia looked at the very energetic Mao Lilan, and then at Okiya Subaru's apartment, a little tangled.

After thinking about it, the occupancy rate of this apartment is not high, and after a quick glance, there is no murderous intent in it—compared to staying with my younger brother, it is indeed Heiji Hattori who is about to arrive, which is more attractive.

Jiang Xia: "..." And just now, before leaving, Okiya Subaru didn't know what he thought of when he said casually before leaving. He even said that if there was a murder case, he would contact him immediately...

Very conscious.

Jiang Xia added 10 impression points to Okiya Subaru in her heart, and decided not to scare him this time.

In the end, he just piled a cat out of puppet clay, let the cat replace himself, and visited his younger brother who had been shutting out recently.By the way, I stayed for a while to see if there was Akai Shuichi who was called to the door.

……

After leaving Okiya Subaru's apartment, Jiang Xia looked at the time, took Mao Lilan and went straight to the station.

When they came to pick up the station just now, Hattori Heiji was a few ten minutes late because of a theft case encountered during the journey.

But now, Hattori Heiji, Toyama and Ye are fine, and Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan have encountered another murder case... Even if the case is solved quickly, from waiting for the police to arrive at the scene to the end, there are still things to deal with. Not too little.

……

In short, when Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan arrived at the station, they searched along the exit for a while, but they didn't see Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha.

"I just sent He Ye an email and told her we might be late."

Mao Lilan has reported to the police for such a long time, and his hand speed is already amazing, and the Gu people are also very experienced-after all, they are often delayed by sudden cases: "Maybe they went to the rest area to sit, or they were wandering around .”

As she said that, she took out her mobile phone and planned to contact her friend in Osaka to ask about the situation.

However, before clicking on the address book, Mao Lilan suddenly asked "Huh?" in doubt:
"Hatori sent me an email."

Jiang Xia: "...?"

... Shouldn't he be the main force who came to pick him up first?

How to send it to Mao Lilan in a detour.

"..." It seems that I haven't seen him for a while, and Hattori-san has become introverted again... The enthusiastic Osaka people have become uncommunicative.

Jiang Xia secretly wrote down this matter in her heart, while leaning over to read the email received by Mao Lilan:
[Since there is a case, you don’t need to worry, just handle it seriously, this kind of thing can’t go wrong, you must be cautious.

We had an appointment with other people to talk about things before, and now it’s almost late, so I’ll just leave—you guys go home too, thank you for picking me up this time. ]
"It seems that Hattori is quite busy." Mao Lilan was a little surprised.However, thinking about Jiang Xia who is often too busy to see anyone, it seems normal - Hattori Heiji is also a detective.
