Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 166 It's Not Jiang Xia's Fault!Ask for a monthly pass (つヮ)
Conan lifted the hem of his clothes, took a peek inside, and saw the familiar marks of beatings.

Conan: "..."

He was dazed for a moment, then swished the lifted clothes back tightly, and carefully pinned it into the waistband of his trousers, and instinctively helped Jiang Xia, who was "brave for justice", take cover.

Then Conan stood up and looked back at Jiang Xia who was "sleeping" beside him.

Not far from Jiang Xia's hand, she saw a rolling pin quietly falling, and there seemed to be some cracks on it.

"..." Conan thought for a moment, and understood with complicated emotions.

No wonder this time, Jiang Xia's reaction when "hanging up" was different from the last time in "Holmes Journey": last time Jiang Xia was just sitting and distracted, but this time she just fell asleep.

Now it seems that this is not a "stress disorder after touching the scene" at all, but a sleeping pill mixed into the coffee.

Yizhilong might want to take the opportunity to use the pool next to him to drown Jiang Xia.It's just that the cold water made Jiang Xia wake up for a short time, and beat Zhilong instead...

Conan: "..." Speaking of which, in the case of hiding heads and corpses before, Jiang Xia seemed to have beaten the bandaged murderer who broke into their room while sleepwalking... Fortunately, Jiang Xia was so vigilant in her dreams, otherwise this time , Maybe Ichiji Takashi is really going to succeed.

……

Ichiji Takashi suffered two sets of heavy blows one after another, and was so completely dizzy that he couldn't wake up for a while.

After a while, Jiang Xia woke up slowly - the wet clothes on his body were too cold, he couldn't sleep well, and wanted to change.

Soon, other people came back from the woods one after another.

Then they were told that their old friend Takashi Yizhi attacked Jiang Xia.The technique used is the same as that of Nikaido, but the scene is no longer a fountain, but a sink in the kitchen.

"How could he kill someone?!"

The digital harem were a little shocked at first.But thinking of the tragedy two years ago, he suddenly fell silent.

After being quiet for a while, the young talents still felt that there were so many mysteries, and couldn't help muttering: "But if the murderer is really Takashi Ichie, why did he attack Jiang Xia, and where is Miss Lihua?... Could it be that he opened the window and slipped into the house just now? Miss Lihua in the woods, are they accomplices? Is she helping Ichiji Takashi to lure us away?"

Jiang Xia wiped her hair and came out of the next room. Hearing this, she shook her head: "If only Mr. Nikaido was attacked, then this situation may indeed exist. But I was also attacked like that just now. I don't think Miss Sijing's current situation is too good."

The young talents who were still thinking about being son-in-law were startled, and suddenly became alert: "What do you mean? Where is she now?"

Jiang Xia lowered his head and thought for a while, and gradually seemed to have an idea: "When you searched the villa just now, did you check the bathtub or other places that can store water?"

"It should have been checked." The others looked at each other for a moment, and vaguely understood, "You mean, where will Miss Lihua be hidden?!"

General Liu Tian suddenly remembered something, got up abruptly, and rushed out.

The others were startled: "Where are you going?!"

As he ran, Masamune Liutian explained: "The bathroom on the west side of the first floor was inspected by Ichie Takashi! The light there 'just happened' to be broken, and I didn't see what was going on inside. At that time, Ichie Takashi said that there was no one inside I didn't go to check. But if he is the murderer behind the scenes..."

The others followed him to the bathroom, and at the same time they were a little puzzled: "But why did Miss Lihua hide in the bathtub?"

When Conan heard someone's question, he couldn't help answering: "After the previous two attacks, if a third drowned person suddenly appeared next to the pool, what do you think was the cause of her death?"

Brother Ponytail copied the question: "...drowned?"

Conan nodded: "To be precise, he was drowned by being 'pressed into the water with his head pressed' - just like Nikaido and Jiang Xia's brother before. And according to the inertia of thinking, if we see Miss Lihua die At the water's edge, I immediately thought that she was also drowned by the murderer on the spot, rather than delayed by the rising water, so that Takashi Yizhi could easily get the alibi."

After answering the crowd's questions, Conan breathed a sigh of relief: It's really convenient to have Jiang Xia by his side. When he doesn't act like a child, just say "Brother Jiang Xia said it" and everything will be settled...

……

While talking, a group of people walked through the corridor and came to the bathroom.

They swiped and opened the shower curtain, looked down at the bathtub, and were shocked: "Miss Lihua!"

——Lihua Sijing sat leaning against the bathtub, fixed to the wall of the bathtub by dense tapes, like a bulky cocoon.The water has just covered her chest, and her mouth and nose have not been submerged yet.

The young talents swarmed up like they were robbing each other, intending to "save the beauty" and fish Lihua Sijing out of the bathtub.

But soon, they were stunned again.

Gojo Xiu said in horror: "She's not breathing!"

……

Reika Yotsui in the bathtub has been dead for some time.

Ichiji Takashi was afraid that when she woke up, she would shout and startle the keen detective, so when he blocked her mouth and nose, he blocked her mouth and nose very tightly.Lihua Sijing's body was also tightly imprisoned, and her breathing was blocked. In the end, she suffocated to death before the water rose to her face.

The young talents carried Sijing Lihua to the restaurant, and tried desperately to give first aid.

Although Conan feels that the person is hopeless, it is not easy to say it directly.So he stood by and helped the young talents correct their first aid actions—although it was not necessary this time, what if these people encountered a similar situation someday.There are so many endangered people, there will always be a time to use it.
