Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 250 I Heard You Detectives Have A Gun?

Hijikata Kosaburo purposely handed out his business cards in the elevator to attract the attention of the three of them, preventing them from staring at the electronic screen and discovering the marks he had painted on it.

By the time the earthwork was delivered slowly, the elevator had already reached the sixth floor.

Of course, in the eyes of Mao Lilan and Conan, this is now the fifth floor.

Hijikata Kosaburo looked at Jiang Xia, who looked calm and seemed to know nothing about his tricks, and was extremely relieved.

He walked to the door of the house and rang the bell.The beautiful wife came out quickly.

The two performed a scene of harmony between husband and wife in front of the guests.Afterwards, Mrs. Tukata left with a smile on her face.

Hijikata Kosaburo asked Jiang Xia and the others to wait in the living room.

There were no slippers in the room, only a doormat.Mao Lilan looked at Hijikata Kozaburo suspiciously, and the owner waved his hand: "This is the place I often use when playing with my friends. I often take action scenes. If you wear slippers or bare feet, many actions are easy to get hurt. Please wipe them off. Come right in."

This is a lie.

Mainly because Hijikata Kozaburo thought that later, these people would have to accompany him in the "Saving Wife" drama. If they were asked to leave their shoes behind, the preparations for killing would be too much for him in such a tight time. too much.

After settling down the guests, Hijikata Kosaburo left the living room as an excuse to make tea for a few people.

Mao Lilan looked at the clean and tidy house, sitting stiffly.But thinking that this is the home of a star, I couldn't help but look around with bright eyes.

Jiang Xia sat for a while, seeing that Kosaburo Hijikata still hadn't come back, so he took out his business card holder and sorted out the business cards inside calmly.

He found all these from the drawer of the detective agency.

Toru Amuro spends most of his time working around. Occasionally, he also puts on the skin of a "famous detective boss" to pretend to be a man, and contacts some clients purposefully.

During this period, Toru Amuro will meet many people and naturally receive many business cards.

Business cards, which are equivalent to the face of the other party, are not easy to throw away directly, so when Toru Amuro receives the business cards, he usually puts them in his bag first, and when he has accumulated a lot, he throws them in the drawer of the detective agency.

Anyway, the boss doesn't seem to need these things. After Jiang Xia asked him, he would regularly put the business cards in the drawer into his business card holder.

When you are free, use the fragmented time to filter, pick out business cards with familiar names, and store them separately.

There is a feeling of searching for treasures in an old house full of sundries when returning to my hometown.

Make rational use of every inch of resources around you.

In this way, Jiang Xia really managed to miss two or three cases.

And there is no need to worry that this will arouse Amuro Toru's suspicion.Although this undercover police officer has a good memory, he is definitely not as good at remembering any trifles as some others.What's more, it is very normal for a detective to encounter a murder case. Normal people don't think about it at all.

Amidst the crackling sound of paper rubbing against each other, Mao Lilan and Conan finished looking at the furnishings in the room, then turned their heads silently, and looked at Jiang Xia who was concentrating on counting the business cards.

The two high school students were quite emotional. They began to sort out their contacts by taking business cards seriously. They never expected that someone like Jiang Xia, who doesn't seem keen on socializing, would have to work hard on such things. Is this the world of social people...

Time is passing by quickly in the process of counting the business cards.

About half an hour later, Kozaburo Hijikata held a tray, opened the door with his elbow, and walked into the living room.

"I've been waiting for a long time." He put the teapot and cups in the tray on the table, and poured tea to several people in a strange way, apologizing, "These things were done by my wife before, and it took me a long time to find all the teapots and tea... Alas, housework looks simple, but after doing it, I realize that it is not the case.”

Jiang Xia glanced at his legs, took the teacup without saying anything.

Kosaburo Hijikata waited for a few seconds, seeing that Jiang Xia refused to answer, he couldn't help but feel a little stiff.

Fortunately, the other person heard the point of his words.

Mao Lilan felt that the air was too quiet, so she casually picked up topics to ease the atmosphere: "Is your wife out?"

"Yeah." Hijikata Kozaburo looked at her with relief, this is such a good boy, "She went to a friend's house."

Crazy hints that his wife is now at Okita's house, that is, the neighbor who met him in the elevator just now.

Mao Lilan didn't immediately understand the meaning of "friend", she just thought it was an ordinary friend.

After drinking tea, Kozaburo Hijikata put down his teacup, counted the time, and picked up a fake gun from the top of the TV.

This time, his excuse for inviting Jiang Xia over was that he was going to take on a detective drama soon, and wanted to ask Jiang Xia how to play a famous detective.

Kozaburo Hijikata handed the fake gun to Jiang Xia:

"This time I'm going to play a famous detective who is good at disguise. He is a guy who likes to play with guns, but I have never been in contact with these before... This is a fake gun that I bought back at a big price. Please You taught me a lot."

Jiang Xia stared at the gun quietly: "..."

Although he knows how to use it, it still reminds him of some unpleasant experiences.Having said that, when will the gun that the organization owes him be issued to him...

Mao Lilan stared blankly at the gun: Jiang Xia is a serious detective, how could he come into contact with this kind of thing, how dangerous it is... Speaking of which, is this uncle actor a bit serious?These days, some people actually think that detectives carry guns with them.

She found that Jiang Xia looked at the gun in a strange way, thinking that Jiang Xia also thought of the same thing as her, but she didn't know how to speak to the customer.

So he took the initiative to help out: "Well, in fact, very few detectives have guns..."

Kosaburo Hijikata was stunned: "That's it. But in the script I received, the first scene is a confrontation with gangsters with guns by this river."

When talking about "this river", he raised his finger to the large floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors at the back.It leads to a balcony.

Jiang Xia seemed to be interested in this topic, he asked, "Is the river here where the filming took place?"

Kosaburo Hijikata nodded, pushed open the glass door, and made a motion to invite them to the balcony.

……

The balcony is open and directly connected to the outside world. The wind with the breath of the river is blowing, and the view is wide.

After a group of people came to the balcony, Kosaburo Hijikata pointed to the river bank below: "Look, it's there."

This apartment building is built next to the river, and the river below is very wide.

The river surface, plus the river bank on the opposite side, from the balcony here to the opposite side, the house has become a small dot like a model.

And from the other side, of course, the same.

This also greatly facilitated Hijikata Kosaburo's ongoing murder plan.

——Just now, while Jiang Xia and the others were waiting in the living room, Kosaburo Hijikata killed his wife next door, and then fixed the body in front of the balcony door next door.

Now, they were watching the scenery from the balcony, with the corpse silently beside them.

Then, as soon as the timer was activated, the body would fall backwards onto the balcony.

In Hijikata Kosaburo's script, the place where the corpse is about to be poured out is the sixth floor, which is his own property.But after his careful preparation, Jiang Xia and others must have thought that the corpse was poured out from Okita's house.

And because the body falling to the ground is a dynamic process, according to normal thinking, Mrs. Tukata was pushed out of the balcony by the assailant, who was still in the room at this time.
