Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 293 You Are the One Who Wants to Make It Yourself

In the restaurant, a group of people waited in line to take a bath while eating dessert.

After a while, "Uncle Yifang" came back steaming with a towel on his shoulders.

Jiang Xia stared at him for a moment - on the thick and short legs of the false scorpion, there was an equally fresh and hot shikigami.

After the bathroom was vacated, other people went to take a bath one after another.

At ten o'clock, Jiang Xia walked into the steamy bathroom.As soon as he entered the door, he stepped on a mass of murderous intent.

He subconsciously looked around and saw that there was no one else, so he picked up Murderous Qi casually and put it in his arms.

Jiang Xia was not surprised by this result, at least when he saw the ghost on Yifang's leg in the fake house, he had already thought of the current development.

In my impression, the step-wife who attended the wedding banquet before planned to kill "Uncle Yifang" while he was taking a bath.However, Yifang is not a helpless old man, but a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu master.Suddenly being stabbed in the back, he subconsciously fought back.

After one move, the stepmother was stabbed in the chest by a kitchen knife in her own hand, and unfortunately lost her blood.

Fake Nei Yifang was stunned at the corpse for a while, realizing that this situation can be regarded as self-defense, and he shouldn't have to go to jail.

But at the same time, once this matter is discovered, he will definitely go to the police station.And once he left, the son of the real Yifang—that Brazilian boy, had to stay alone at the Yifang’s house tomorrow, otherwise he would not get the inheritance.

Before that, they had actually received two threatening letters from different people.That is, besides this dead step-sister, there is another person who will be against them.He couldn't leave the Brazilian boy to go to the police.

So the righteous house in the fake house hesitated for a moment, dragged the stepmother who had come to deliver the head to the well in the courtyard, tied the man with a well rope, and threw the body into the well.And he planned to wait until the will was announced tomorrow morning before revealing his identity as the "murderer" and making a record.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia decided to let the corpse appear in everyone's sight as soon as possible.

At present, it seems that the hidden "Murderer No. [-]" is relatively timid. With a little manipulation, it is not difficult to get the murderous aura from her.

If we settle this matter tonight, we will be able to catch the early train back to Tokyo the next day to catch up on the cases that Asami Endo may bring.

Although Jiang Xia has not thought of a case related to the "real person reasoning game", but this kind of activity is easy to cause accidents. For example, when simulating a murder scene, someone did a fake show and stabbed a dead body with a knife... um, and a only ghost.

……

Jiang Xia let go of her thoughts, put away her murderous aura, and looked at the bathtub filled with hot water next to her.

In theory, he should take a shower first, and then soak in the barrel.

But when he thought that at least three uncles had been soaked in this tank of water just now, he didn't want to go in, even though the water looked clear and clean...

Jiang Xia leaned next to the barrel to observe for a while, then slowly turned her head, and looked at Wu Tiangou floating next to her.

Then, ignoring the opponent's slightly blown feathers, he whispered, "Go take a dip and test the temperature of the water."

We are both from the island country...Ghost, you shouldn't mind this custom of soaking in the same big tank. The aunties just now also soaked in the same tank of water.

In the absence of murderous energy, the influence of ghosts and real objects on each other is very limited.

But in the end, I can still receive some feedback. For example, when ghosts pass through walls or pass through fixed objects, the resistance they receive will be slightly greater than that of floating in the air. This is also the reason why mermaids can happily bathe in various liquids.

In the same way, ghosts can also sense the airflow or temperature, and can help measure the water temperature... Just thinking about this, Jiang Xia saw the mermaid jumping into the water next to her, holding her murderous spirit that she had played with for a long time as a swimming board, happy Swimming in the water.

Jiang Xia: "..."

Beside, Wutiangu actually doesn't like water very much.

Although there were mermaids fighting for the job, but remembering what Jiang Xia said just now, it still didn't dare to make excuses to slow down, but slowly landed, flapping its wings and hovering on the water surface, then slowly stretched out one leg, and touched it with its translucent toe. Get wet.

As an increasingly witty ghost, Wu Tiangou keenly discovered that the key point of the master's command just now was to "test the water temperature" rather than "take a dip".

So this should work...

Jiang Xia looked at Wutiangou's cautious appearance and didn't want to get wet, and then saw the appearance of the mermaid plunged into the bucket and didn't want to come out. He sighed, and then handed over the task of measuring the water temperature to the mermaid, so that Wutiangou could act casually .

Wu Tiangou swished away from the water, returned to the air, and flicked his feet secretly.

Jiang Xia pulled a small stool from the side and sat down.After a while, the mermaid told him that when the water temperature was getting colder, Jiang Xia took a shower with the shower device that still had some hot water next to it, letting some steam rise from the top of his head, pretending that he had taken a serious bath just now.

Soon, he returned to the dining room steaming like everyone else who had showered before.

And when the host politely asked about his feelings, he responded truthfully: "The water is a bit cold."

On the way back just now, Jiang Xia piled up a puppet outside the side door in the nearby courtyard, and made the puppet appear to be half-covered by the door frame, sneaking a peek into the courtyard—yes, that is Kudo Yusaku has been maintaining the look before.

Hearing Jiang Xia's words that the water was cold, Hiromi Suuchi got up with the spirit of a host, and was about to run to the bathroom to burn it again.

While wiping the water from her hair, Jiang Xia passed her by and entered the room.

Just as she was about to sit down, Hiromi Hiromi's frightened screams came from the courtyard—she found a "suspicious person" peeking at the small door on the side.

Due to the energy core accumulated before and the energy collected from the mermaid, the ghosts can already manipulate the puppets to do some very simple actions alone.

The moment he heard Hiromi Hiromi's scream, the puppet dodged to the side, was blocked by the door, and completely disappeared from Hiromi's sight.

With a slight movement of Jiang Xia's mind, he dismissed the puppet.

Then he turned around and ran to follow the sound with the others, and found Hiromi Hiuchi, who was slumped in the corridor, staring at the side door with a terrified expression.

Similar things happened in the original world line. At that time, the "suspicious person" who frightened Hiromi Hiromi and attracted everyone was the sneaky Yusaku Kudo.

But now, for some reason, Yusaku Kudo is still sleeping in the warehouse.

So Jiang Xia can only work part-time again, so that it will be logical...

Following Hiromi's direction, he looked at the empty side door.

Then he quickly retracted his gaze, turned to look at the well not far away where people had died, and asked in confusion, "Why is the bucket strangled on it?"
