Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1142 [Hattori Heiji is desperate]

The four quickly split into two groups.

Okiya Subaru and Mori Ran went to the abandoned building.Conan quietly followed Jiang Xia.

Conan: "..." Speaking of which, he also felt that one of the "Ito" was a bit weird.Since Jiang Xia also thinks so, is Hattori really in that family?

……

Jiang Xia returned to the way he came from, and walked towards the female lawyer's home with a clear goal.

——When he was at the door just now, he smelled several clusters of murderous aura. It felt very fluffy, and it should feel good to the touch... Besides, the attic of the lawyer's house is so hidden, so he probably wouldn't be able to see it when he knocked on it.

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt someone following behind him.

Jiang Xia looked back and found that it was Conan, so she didn't pay much attention.

Mao Lilan and Okiya Subaru are still a little troublesome, but Conan is completely fine.And according to the real high school student detective's ability to pull hatred, maybe with Conan around, the murderous intent will increase...

……

a few minutes ago.

On the other side, Ito house.

Misari Ito saw off the detectives and his party, and returned to the house with the cat in his arms, heaving a sigh of relief.

Siam struggled in her arms, Misa Ito touched the cat and put it on the ground: "Mom is still busy now, I will play with you later."

While talking, she went up the stairs to the second floor, found the hidden attic secret door on the ceiling, and pulled it hard.

A staircase fell silently.

Ito Misari followed it and climbed up to the attic. Halfway through the climb, she suddenly felt an itchy calf, and something passed by her, and went straight up.

"!?"

Ito Misa was startled, looked over murderously, and saw a cat sneaked into the house at some time.

The cat was completely black except for four white paws.It quickly climbed to the top of the stairs, glanced into the attic with its head, then lightly entered the attic, and quickly disappeared into the corner.

Misari Ito: "..." It turned out to be just a cat...

She breathed a sigh of relief.Although the attic is relatively hidden, you shouldn't let random people wait... or cats to come in, but Misari Ito also knows how difficult it is to catch cats.If you make too much noise, it will be bad.

What's more, a cat in the district can't do anything wrong.And that cat looks cute...

After thinking for a moment, Misari Ito decided to ignore it and concentrate on dealing with the situation at hand.

……

She climbed up to the attic, closed the door behind her back, looked at the people in the attic, and slowly showed a gloomy sneer.

——In general, the attic is quite spacious.

But at this time, including Ito Misari, there were a full six people crowded inside, and it suddenly seemed particularly depressing.

The six were apparently divided into two groups.

Among the murdered group, a middle-aged man fell to the ground, motionless, looking as if he was dead.The other two young high school students were sitting on the ground back to back, their four hands tightly handcuffed together.

Next to them, two men with swollen faces held guns and were in charge of guarding.

——A few hours ago, Hattori Heiji, Toyama and Ye followed the trail of Kusukawa Taro and found this place all the way.As soon as he entered the door, he was pointed at by a gun and pressed onto the attic.

At this time, Toyama and Ye's clothes were fairly clean, but Hattori Heiji was too capable of attracting hatred, and he was a little disheartened.

Seeing someone going upstairs, Hattori Heiji gritted his teeth and stared at Ito Misari, as if he was very upset with this kind of criminal who didn't speak martial arts.

Misari Ito looked at him, and said with a sneer: "Oh, why did the handsome Kansai guy get turned into this after I left for a while?"

Her little brother quickly explained: "When you were talking to those people in the yard just now, this kid actually wanted to call for help outside. I could only punch him twice."

"Tsk tsk, it's really rude. Look at this face, I'm afraid it will be swollen into a pig's head tomorrow. But..." Misa Ito touched Hattori Heiji's face, and in the middle of speaking with pity, her tone suddenly sank, Turned into a threat, "Whether there will be a 'tomorrow' depends on your performance."

Hattori Heiji snorted coldly, looking a little unwilling.

Misari Ito has dealt with various clients all the year round, and her ability to know people is not weak.She looked at Hattori Heiji for a moment, understood something, and showed a smug smile:
"You expect that Tokyo detective to discover that you are trapped here? It's a pity that Jiang Xia didn't suspect me. Originally, I wanted to see the legend of solving the case with my own eyes, but now it seems that it's just the media's boring Just flattery.

"Okay. Now the person in the way is gone, stop playing tricks. Solve the puzzle for me quickly."

Saying that, Ito Misari threw a piece of paper in front of Hattori Heiji.

The paper is a 7×7 square with various letters and numbers written in it, which was written by Taro Kusukawa.

Misari Ito sat down on the dead body of the middle-aged man, looked down at him, and said with disgust, "This bastard Kusukawa will really find trouble for me, leaving this kind of mysterious puzzle as a bank vault The answer to the mystery... Fortunately, a detective delivered it to the door."

She pointed the gun at Hattori Heiji: "You detectives should be very good at solving puzzles—tell me the answer before dawn tomorrow."

……

Misa Ito said it lightly, but when she was stared at by Jiang Xia downstairs just now, for some reason, she always had a bad premonition, feeling that she had been exposed all the time.

"..." Fortunately, it seems that she is overthinking.He must have been misled by those unscrupulous media, mistakenly thinking that Jiang Xia is really a powerful character...

Thinking of the situation just now, Ito Misari couldn't help being a little annoyed: If Kusukawa Taro hadn't manipulated her criminal evidence, how could she, a high-ranking senior lawyer, commit a crime against a high school brat.

Misari Ito is indeed a lawyer with a good reputation who does not pursue legal fees.

But that doesn't mean she doesn't love money—on the contrary, she has her own way of making money.The bulk of Ito Misari's income is actually assisting those wealthy people to evade taxes and settle other possible problems.The rest of the entrustment is just a tool for her to earn her reputation.

Relying on his own ability and reputation, Ito Misari's career has gone smoothly.

However, when the spring breeze was in full swing, Kusukawa Taro suddenly came to her and said to her, "If you don't want those criminal evidences to be made public, you should wash your hands and stop doing those things."

"Heh, how dare you talk to me about the terms and tell me not to do that business again—in fact, you just want to blackmail me."

Ito Misari stood up and kicked the corpse: "I actually thought that if I stored the evidence in the bank vault and wrote the password as a puzzle, I could escape... It's a pity that this guy almost managed to find out if he didn't beat him." The answer, he suddenly died.

"Fortunately, I've always been lucky—a detective who can solve mysteries just came to my door..."
