Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1416 1416 [Are you also a planner? 】

Jiang Xia: "..." Why did it look like he just came back after swindling Ireland? Obviously, the cadre was out of luck, and the passing Uzo was just fulfilling his duty of "maintaining his image as a righteous detective" and saving him. It's just a patrolman who was almost headshot...

The coffee in this shop is of good quality.

Jiang Xia quickly put those troublesome things behind her, drank slowly, and enjoyed the good time of the moment.

Halfway through the drink, something suddenly felt wrong: it seemed to be night now.

He looked at the remaining half cup of refreshing coffee, hesitated for a moment, and continued to drink: he drank it all, and there was no difference between a half cup and a cup.And thinking about it carefully, for him, insomnia at night is not a bad thing, the big deal is to go out for a few laps and see if there are any cases calling for fake detectives.

Just as he was thinking, through the window, a police siren suddenly sounded from the street.

Jiang Xia turned her head to look out the window, and saw a police car roaring towards it, and stopped at the red light intersection next to the coffee shop.

Looking at its orientation, it seems that it is going to the place where someone fell from the building just now.

Through the half-open window, Jiang Xia saw a few acquaintances in the car at a glance: Mao Lilan and Conan were sitting in a row at the back, and Mori Kogoro was in the passenger seat.

In the driver's seat is the haggard policewoman who works overtime temporarily, Miwako Sato.

Jiang Xia's eyes lit up, and when the four of them were stopped by a red light, he ran out of the coffee shop and went straight to them—he had already asked for an early checkout when ordering, and now it seems that this is really a good detective should possess Habit.

……

Mao Lilan was sitting in the car, originally a little anxious.

At this time, she suddenly heard the wind chime on the door of a shop next to the small street ringing.

Randomly following the prestige, she saw the person who ran out, she was suddenly stunned: "Jiang Xia?"

"Yeah." Jiang Xia appeared next to the police car in the blink of an eye, and he has never seen him move so fast even if he was running for his life.He observed the environment left and right, and quietly reached out to pull the car door, "What happened?"

Officer Sato saw him rubbing against the car so naturally, his eyes twitched, and he stopped in a low voice: "This is at the intersection!"

...But there are no cars around, and there seems to be no surveillance here.Moreover, Jiang Xia was so persistent in wanting to get in the car that it seemed difficult to persuade him to leave.It might be even more dangerous to keep him on the road.

After a brief hesitation, Officer Sato silently unlocked the car door.After all, if there is another person following outside, it will affect her speed of racing in the future.

Jiang Xia used his long-term experience in the car to sneak into the car as he wished.

After he sat down firmly, he closed the door back with his hand, and his movements were silky smooth, not even a second before and after.

Just at the end of the red light, the police car started again.

Through the rearview mirror, Officer Sato cast a disapproving look, and seemed to plan to send him to the traffic police for education later.

In the back seat, Conan, who has been skateboarding along motorized lanes, non-motorized lanes, walls, and bus bodies all year round, doesn't have much opinion on this kind of free-riding behavior.

He moved in to make room for Jiang Xia, his face looked a little dignified.

……

The vehicle started again, Jiang Xia looked at a few acquaintances beside him, and asked the question again: "What happened?"

The others were not surprised that Jiang Xia suddenly appeared from a roadside coffee shop. After all, Jiang Xia often went to various places to catch cats, and from time to time he had to find clients from all walks of life with various personalities, and occasionally helped him squeeze The boss of a high school student is a part-time job replacement, and he likes to go out for racing in the middle of the night... It doesn't seem strange that he appears in any corner of Tokyo at any time.

Mori Kogoro didn't think too much, seeing Jiang Xia asked, he angrily repeated what happened just now:
"I won a fortune betting on the horse yesterday. There happened to be a new store opening on the side of Food Street, so I took Xiaolan and Conan to try it. Speaking of which, although the store's consumption is high, their beer tastes good. What a masterpiece, I will take you with me when I have time... Oh, no, you still can't appreciate it."

Jiang Xia: "..." Hmph, naive.Who said he couldn't appreciate it.Leave a name for the store, and tomorrow he will... let the puppet go and buy it back.

Mao Lilan poked Mo Li Kogoro: "Dad, get to the point!"

Mori Kogoro came back to his senses, tapped his drunken head, and said seriously: "We were having dinner at that open-air restaurant, when suddenly the clerk came over with a phone, saying that someone called the store, specifying to find Me, let me transfer."

……

At that time, Kogoro Mori had just picked up the phone when he heard a voice that didn't want to be beaten: "Ex-policeman, long time no see—I heard that you have resigned to become a detective now?"

Hearing this tone and address, Mori Kogoro vaguely had a bad feeling:

After he resigned, he was treated as a "former policeman". Except for his former colleagues, the rest were basically looking for trouble - after all, the police industry is the natural enemy of criminals, and those who were sent to prison by them, After being locked up for a few years and then released, some will start a new life, while others just want revenge.

Mori Kogoro frowned: "Who are you?"

"Hmph, it's really a nobleman who forgets things, it's me." The tone of the person on the other side of the phone became cold, and he announced his name, "Himuro Reiji."

This surname is not very common.

Mori Kogoro recalled for a moment, and suddenly had an impression: "The bank robber I sent in? You came out so soon?"

"That's right." Although Mori Kogoro recognized him smoothly, what was mentioned in the words was obviously not pleasant.

Himuro Reiji laughed hard: "You are so leisurely, others live in fear because of you, but you still have the heart to bring the children out to enjoy meals--haha, by the way, you probably don't know it yet, Someone is about to die because of you."

While talking, he stood in the building opposite the restaurant, through the window, and waved condescendingly to Mori Kogoro.

Waiting for Mori Kogoro and the others to pay the bill and rush over to arrest them, Himuro Reiji did not leave.

……

In the police car, Kogoro Mouri punched his thigh angrily while recalling: "I asked him what he meant, but he just said mysteriously, 'It's too late', what else is 'I want you to Living in guilt all my life'..."

As he spoke, he sighed, a little tired: "Actually, I hope it's just a joke, but according to my experience, this kind of murderer with a criminal record, most of the cruel words they say are true.

"So I tried to call the police, and then I learned that at the time Ice Room called me, someone actually died - that person fell from an abandoned building and fell to his death."
