Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1255 1255 [So good, it must be fake]

When Miwako Sato heard what "Kuroba Kaito" said, she couldn't help but glance at him: "..." Could it be that people with this look have the talent to be detectives?
But Jiang Xia looks different from them...

Her thoughts wandered for a brief moment.

Then he quickly shook his head to regain his senses, looked at the single building in front of him again, and said seriously, "Go in and have a look."

……

Just about to ring the doorbell, the door was suddenly opened, and the owner appeared at the door.

It was a rather lean-looking woman with high cheekbones and long hair dyed brown that was tied into a neat low ponytail behind her.But at this time, her attire did not match the temperament of a strong woman—she was wearing an apron, holding a rag, and was cleaning the door with her head buried in her mouth.

While wiping, he yelled at the two cleaners who were washing the car: "I just took a look, the room is still dirty, especially the living room! You guys remember to rework later - I pay three times the high overtime pay , not to make you perfunctory me."

As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her head, saw the person at the door clearly, and was startled for a moment: "You are..."

"Megure from the first search section of the Metropolitan Police Department." The police department of Megumo skillfully showed his police ID, "I have some questions to ask you."

The face of the owner changed slightly.

After a while, perhaps to show that she had a clear conscience, she nodded nonchalantly and got out of the way into the house.

……

When a group of people entered the living room, as the light brightened, Aoko Nakamori, who was quietly watching beside him, was suddenly startled.

She looked at the owner in surprise: "I seem...where have I met you?"

The owner did not reply, but Jiang Xia helped her complete the information. He looked at the owner and said, "Are you the management of that gallery? In the gallery before, after the homeless man was driven away by the manager, you appeared and asked about the situation." Right—speaking of it, I remember your expression was a bit scary at that time, as if you were reminded of something through the manager's description of the homeless."

"Oh?" Megure Police Department's eyes lit up. Although there is no evidence yet, he always feels that the case seems to have a clue - the detective boy next to him with a Kudo face also seems to have a promising future as a detective.

Hearing Jiang Xia's words, the homeowner's expression was a bit ugly, and he snorted coldly: "It is indeed me you saw. But so what? ——Seeing that strange people entered my gallery, do I have to smile at each other? welcome?"

However, several policemen obviously trusted the detective more and were not fooled.

Hayase Junxiang regretted letting this group of people in just now. She took a deep breath and hurriedly stood up: "I'll get you some tea."...By the way, she sorted out the train of thought for her speech.

……

After she left, Mumu Police Department looked at Jiang Xia: "Is this the place drawn in the deceased's sketchbook?"

Jiang Xia took out her mobile phone and turned it on, looked at the photo album, and nodded:
"The outside scene is the same, and the shape of the house is the same, but the furnishings inside the house have all changed." He bent down and looked down at the floor and the edges of various furniture, "From these traces, the decoration style is not a recent one. It may have changed a few months, or even a year ago."

Next to him, Aoko Nakamori looked at him in surprise.

Although he already knew that Kuaidou was smart, and it should be easy to solve the case, but he... is actually helping the police?
And it's just reasoning normally, without any ambiguity or teasing?

Aoko Nakamori: "..." It's a bit strange...

However, seeing that "Kuroba Kaito" is serious about solving the case, as a person with a strong conscience, she is also embarrassed to paddle.Aoko Nakamori always felt that she seemed to have some clues, but she was not sure whether she should tell them or not.

At this moment, "Kuroba Kaito" suddenly looked at her.He seemed to have understood Nakamori Aoko's little hesitant movements, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"!" Aoko Nakamori was inexplicably encouraged when he saw him. She pointed to the wall carefully, "The painting on the wall looks familiar, very similar to the signboard painting on the gallery flyer I received before. Obviously still for sale."

"In this case, it may be because the gallery is about to close down, so this Ms. Hayase brought it back recently." Looking at Aoko Nakamori's face, Jiang Xia inexplicably developed a physique from childhood incidents into a The adult Mao Lilan's sense of accomplishment encouraged him, "It's a very useful clue."

Aoko Nakamori blushed: Kaito really can talk today... Wait, isn't this getting more and more suspicious?

After thinking about it, her eyes couldn't help but fall on Jiang Xia's face.

——I heard that Kaitou Kidd is good at disguise. He can easily disguise himself as various people, sneak into the closely guarded police team, and even disguise others into his appearance to confuse the public.

Aoko Nakamori: "..." If Kidd asked his companion to disguise himself as "Kuroba Kaito" and come here to accompany him... Then Kidd's companion is unexpectedly a good person.

"..." No, no, this doesn't seem to be the point of tonight.

Aoko Nakamori took a deep breath, remembering the experiences her father told about fighting wits and courage with Kidd, she looked at Jiang Xia, and curled up her slender fingers: If you find a chance, pinch his face, will it work? Verify your guess?

Jiang Xia caught a glimpse of the movement of her fingers from the corner of her eye, and suddenly her face turned cold.

Jiang Xia: "..." Aoko Nakamori is even harder to fool than the Nakamori police department, so be careful, don't let her catch the opportunity to tear Yirong.

It really doesn't work...

Jiang Xia looked at Xiaobai floating around at the scene of the crime, thinking about the special anesthetic needle in his pocket, he felt certain.

……

This time, it was Aoko Nakamori's turn to feel cold.

She still didn't know the dangers of the detective society where the anesthetic needles were flying around, so she subconsciously turned her head to look at the window.On the way to move her eyes, she suddenly discovered another thing.

Aoko Nakamori said "Huh?" and pointed to the photo hanging on the wall in surprise: "Isn't that portrait the same as the deceased homeless man we met? The hooked nose and cheekbones are exactly the same!"

"Where is it?" A few dull policemen looked up and were taken aback.

There is indeed a black and white photo hanging on the living room wall.Due to the dull color and the fact that it was hung in a dimly lit corner, the police failed to notice it immediately.

The person in the photo has a thick beard, glasses, and sharp eyes. It is indeed a very recognizable appearance.

Just at this time, the owner seemed to have sorted out his mood, and came over with a tea tray.

Miwako Sato pointed to the portrait and asked her, "This is...?"

Hayase Junxiang glanced at the photo: "It's my husband. What's wrong?"

Jiang Xia was using someone else's account tonight, and her speech was not as tactful as usual: "Just now we found a dead body by the river, he looks the same as the person in the posthumous photo."

"Then you are mistaken." Hayase Junxiang looked at him with a smile, "My husband died a year ago."
