Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1321 1321 [Whether to save or kill]

"..."

The moon is dark and the wind is high, the river is cold and the water is cold.

Shi Kaobing stared at the man drifting past in front of him, feeling a chill on his back for no reason, and couldn't help shivering.

But after all, she was a murderous thief, she quickly regained her composure, and suspicion gradually appeared in her eyes: Isn't this person should have drifted away long ago, why did he turn back from another direction?It's almost like swimming back on purpose...

But soon, Shi Kaobing denied this guess: with her alertness and the current level of silence around her, if this person really swam back, then she couldn't have heard nothing.

Maybe it's because she has been stopping here, and the boat disrupted the direction of part of the water flow, so this person was washed back again?

"Oh, it's really destined." Shi Kaobing sneered in his heart, pulled out the gun hidden on his body, lowered the muzzle, and aimed at the guy who startled her, "In this case, why don't you just give you a ride?" gone."

Just before the trigger was pulled, a gust of night wind happened to blow.

There was a faint sound of sirens on the river bank.

"..." Shi Kaobing paused his finger on the trigger, and his pupils shrank: Why did the police suddenly come here? !
Could it be that the group of trash also predicted Kidd's escape location and planned to come here in advance to arrange it?But in that case, they shouldn't be turning on the sirens...

Shi Kaobing ignored the people in the river for a while, grabbed the binoculars and looked towards the river bank, and indeed saw some police lights approaching.

She clicked her tongue: Although the gun was equipped with a silencer, the smoke that exploded when the gun was fired fell on the clothes on the boat, which was difficult to deal with.If you shoot and kill people now, and you are seen by the sharp-eyed police and stopped for inspection, things will be troublesome.

Shi Kaobing: "..." She is just an insignificant passer-by, and should not affect her great cause of stealing treasures from the Romanov dynasty the next day.

She took a deep breath, put away the gun aggrievedly, and didn't intend to continue talking to that annoying guy in the river, and wanted him to drown himself.

She turned to get ready to sail.

But just a moment before the boat started, there was a clear sound of "crashing" behind him.

"?!" Shi Kaobing suddenly turned his head, and saw the young man grabbing the side of the boat and climbing up.He had a nimble figure, and when the water splashed to the ground, he had already flipped into the cabin lightly.

It may be that the chic movements when boarding the boat exhausted his strength. As soon as the man got on the boat, he immediately sat down weakly against the side of the boat and coughed twice as if choking on water.

Two seconds later, when Shi Kaobing had finished his expression, he raised his head in a daze, looked at her, with a trace of apology on his face: "I don't have enough strength to swim to the shore, so I can only go to you first." Your boat...wet the boards, you shouldn't mind it. I will compensate you according to the price later."

"..." Shi Kaobing didn't expect this guy to wake up, and suddenly climbed up like a water ghost.

Holding the gun in her pocket, she barely suppressed the thought of drawing the gun and shooting him, her eyes swept over Jiang Xia coldly.

Then he was slightly startled, and his eyes stopped on his face.

Shi Kaobing: "..." Wait, it seems... that famous high school student detective? !

……

Shi Kaobing actually doesn't pay much attention to the situation in Japan.

But this time, after all, he was going to steal treasure, and he couldn't completely pin his hopes on Kidd.Therefore, she disguised herself as a "Researcher of the Romanov Dynasty", and planned to use this identity to directly contact the owner of the treasure, the Suzuki Consortium.

In order to facilitate the operation, which can be regarded as a hostage candidate, Shi Kaobing checked the relevant information.She knew that near Suzuki Sonoko, there was a powerful detective who often encountered murder cases.

After seeing the news during the day and learning that Jiang Xia had also come to Osaka, Shi Kaobing had thought casually: Jiang Xia might also be one of the obstacles to his treasure theft.

She had even thought about how to not show her flaws in front of this detective tomorrow, but she didn't expect to meet someone suddenly tonight.

……

At this time, when he recognized the person who fell into the water, a thought flashed in Shi Kaobing's mind: If we build a good relationship, maybe we can use Jiang Xia as a cover.

Because besides the detectives, there must be many obstacles for her tomorrow: the police, Kidd, other detectives... Maybe there are also experts specially invited by the Suzuki family to protect Chongbao.

If Jiang Xia can be turned into a teammate, it is not difficult to imagine that many links will be much simpler.

but……

Shi Kaobing frowned again, thinking suspiciously: If just now, Jiang Xia saw her observing the surrounding behavior, and found out that Kidd would have an accident here tomorrow, and then associated the two things together.Then she would undoubtedly be at risk of exposure.

Sure enough...

Kill it.

……

A series of thoughts flashed through, and Shi Kaobing quickly made a decision.

There are police searching nearby, guns tend to leave gunpowder, and knives tend to leave blood.But fortunately, there are many ways to kill someone.

——For example, the simplest one at present is strangling people to death.

She put on the gloves, moved her slender fingers, and took a step forward, trying to grab the weak detective's neck.

But at this moment, Shi Kaobing's eyes suddenly paused.

"..." I couldn't see it from the angle just now, but now that I got closer, I saw a handprint printed on the side of the boat.It looks like it was left behind when it capsized on the boat—the ship plate is made of alloy.this detective...

The intuition honed during life and death all the year round made Shi Kaobing stop cautiously.

She suddenly recalled the previous reports: Although she had never heard that Jiang Xia was good at fighting, there were several reports that Jiang Xia went into danger alone in order to fight criminals.

However, judging from the photos attached to the report, Jiang Xia was always unscathed in the follow-up. On the contrary, the prisoner did not appear on the scene, and he could only vaguely glimpse the back of the ambulance from a distance in the photo.

Shi Kaobing: "..." Something is wrong.

One has to be a little cautious.

It's not that he's worried that he won't be able to defeat Jiang Xia, but that people have a strong desire to survive.If Jiang Xia's strength is really so strong, he will struggle later, even if he dies by "choking to death", many traces will definitely be left behind.

The police on the shore are getting closer and closer, still the same sentence: get the "memory egg" first, and don't expose yourself.

……

At this time, Shi Kaobing was opposite.

Jiang Xia seemed to hear her approaching footsteps, and raised her lowered gaze.

There was no doubt on his expression when he looked over, on the contrary, there was only a little focus and gratitude for his savior.

Finding Shi Kaobing's eyes strange, he followed the woman's gaze, as if he understood something.

After a while, Jiang Xia moved her body slightly, blocked the side of the boat behind her, and said with some embarrassment: "There is really no place to hold on to the side of the boat, and the water is too cold, so I can only do this. But...cough , please rest assured. As I said just now, I will compensate for any damage to the ship according to the price."
