Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1217 1217 [Murder of Mao Lilan]

"Mr. Tanaka! Did you see Photon?" The woman with the high ponytail broke out in a sweat and asked the doctor, "We made an appointment to meet tonight, but she never came, and we couldn't find anyone at her house."

Dr. Tanaka is a local.

During the day today, he went to a meeting of the doctors union.A group of doctors will appear here tonight, precisely because of the invitation from Katsuyoshi Tanaka—the beaches in this area are really beautiful, and in the spirit of coming here, a few doctors with plenty of time were invited.

Unexpectedly, while drinking well, a strange woman suddenly ran out.

A group of doctors paused their conversation and watched with silence.

Seeing this, Dr. Tanaka couldn't help becoming irritable: "How do I know! I have nothing to do with her for a long time. If you come to bother me when you have time, you might as well go to the place she often goes to look for it."

"..." The woman with the high ponytail gritted her teeth and glared at him, turned around and left without saying anything.

"This guy can really quarrel with anyone." Suzuki Sonoko muttered, stopped talking to the people at the table, and pulled Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan to sit near the counter, "Boss, what's special about you?" What's the dish? How many servings!"

……

Although Jiang Xia and the others came late, they were only eating, and they were much more efficient than the group of drinking and chatting uncles next to them.

It was nearly eleven o'clock, and several high school students checked out and left.

When passing by the doctor's table, Doctor Neihai's cell phone somehow slipped out and fell to Jiang Xia's feet with a click.

Jiang Xia picked it up and handed it back to him.

"Thank you." Dr. Utsumi smiled politely, took the phone, and glanced down at the screen.

His mobile phone is locked, and the screen is of course still locked at this time, and Jiang Xia just picked it up, and it is impossible to do anything in just a second or two.

Dr. Utsumi didn't think too much, and stuffed the phone into his pocket.

After hesitating for a moment, he took out his phone again, touched the depth of his pocket again, and found that there was nothing else stuffed inside.

Dr. Utsumi: "..." Could it be that the phone slipped out just now because the pocket was shallow?These pants are no good, go back and change a pair...

He turned his head and started chatting with several colleagues again, talking about various "news" and "rumors".

What Dr. Okano stabbed him in the back just now made Dr. Utsumi reflect seriously.

Then he realized that if he wanted to hide himself, it would be better to hide himself in the forest—to be a person who already liked to tell all kinds of weird stories and tell gossip.In this way, even if something happens again, it will not appear deliberate.

This is just the beginning, and it is inevitable that his methods have some shortcomings. When he becomes a full member of the organization in the future, he still has a long way to go.

Dr. Utsumi thought of the impending promotion, looked at the doctors in front of him again, raised his glass, and blocked the sneer on his lips.

……

On the other side, Jiang Xia reluctantly left the pile of doctors, and returned to the hotel with a few classmates.

After entering the room, he counted the newly received business cards again, and piled up the murderous spirits he had picked up before, before falling asleep peacefully.

……

Early the next morning, on the beach.

Suzuki Sonoko lazily hugged the floating board, floating around in the sea, with mixed feelings.

The joy is that Jiang Xia and Xiaolan did as she wished, they praised her new swimsuit and her good taste.

The worry is...

Jiang Xia really didn't go into the water.

He didn't even change into his swimsuit, he just wore a slightly cooler set of clothes, and lay down on the beach chair under the parasol to enjoy the sea breeze, turning his head occasionally, and looked around with admiring eyes beach.

That lazy attitude of refusing to go into the water at the beach, at first glance, looks like a shameless boy who came to the beach to admire his snow-white body.

But Suzuki Sonoko knew he wasn't - because there were indeed very few people on this beach, so few that apart from her and Xiaolan, there was no third woman at all.Compared with them, Jiang Xia visited the group of doctors in the distance more often.

Suzuki Sonoko: "...#" What's so interesting about the doctor!Is it more worthy of appreciation than a beautiful girl like her who is naturally beautiful, cute and lively, hum!
...But she is soaking in the sea now, so she really can't see anything except her head.

...Yes, that must be the reason.

Sonoko Suzuki kicked the water sadly.

……

ashore.

Jiang Xia actually didn't mind going into the water to play around, but on second thought, he had to change into a swimsuit when going into the sea, and there was a fancy "Z" pattern on his heart that symbolized "Anonymous".

Although unlike ghosts, his tattoos can be put away.

But if you want to put it away completely, you need to put all the released ghosts and shikigami back into the space first.

This is obviously very inconvenient for psychics, because then it is impossible for ghosts to eavesdrop, peep, and use others as trackers all the time... Life is not difficult, but it always feels less Kind of fun.

Unlike now, with the mermaid in his left hand and Noah in his right hand, the two cold ghosts seemed to be hugging two iced watermelons, cooler than the sea breeze.

Jiang Xia: "..." By the way, when it comes to this, idleness is idleness, why not buy some watermelon and eat it.

Thinking of this, he left the two ghosts and sat up, walked around the fruit stand, shopped around, and brought back the roundest and most beautiful melon, which was just chilled.

……

Back at the beach, I was about to ask Maori students to perform a free-hand melon opening.

Taking a closer look, Jiang Xia was slightly taken aback, and found that there was something extra in the sea.

"Jiang Xia!"

Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan waved at him from afar.There was actually a rubber raft in front of them, and the two of them were stepping on the air pump to inflate it.

——Suzuki Sonoko floated in the sea for a while just now, feeling that it would be too boring to go on like this, so he decided to find a way to let Jiang Xia appreciate the beauty of the sea.

She went to the nearby equipment store and bought a rubber raft.Since Jiang Xia doesn't want to swim, there is actually another way to play in the sea.

……

With Jiang Xia's help, the rubber raft was quickly filled with air.Four people... three... Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan each picked up the rubber raft and threw it from the beach into the sea.

Several people put on life jackets, pushed the boat deep, then climbed into the boat, picked up the oars and paddled far away.

When they were at a distance where they would not be washed ashore at any time, they broke open the watermelon and shared a piece with each other.

Mao Lilan took a few bites of the watermelon that was dying, and leaned comfortably against the side of the boat, obviously enjoying the trip: "Comfortable."

Conan was embarrassed to sit still, and just helped to paddle a few times, but now he was so tired that he was out of breath.

While gnawing on the watermelon, he turned his head to look at the sea, and found that there were actually people riding speedboats nearby. He couldn't help showing envious eyes: "It's better to use that kind of boat. It's fast and doesn't need to be rowed. We should have rented a speedboat just now."
