Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 321 Don't Knock on the Door and Ask for a Monthly Pass ()
The short-haired woman who spoke just now is actually Ye Caisan's daughter.She didn't believe Ye Caisan was dead.Suddenly saw the advertisement published by "Gu Dachuan" in the newspaper, so he boarded the boat to look for clues.

Listening to her science popularization, Hattori Heiji gradually got an impression of the "Shadow Planner". He remembered hearing about this person from Hattori Heizo a long time ago.

Almost at the same time, a man with frosty temples and deep nasolabial folds on the next table came back to his senses from the news that "Ye Caisan is on board". He stood up abruptly and asked the waiter sharply, "Where is Ye Caisan's room?" ?”

The waiter was taken aback: "...in Room 1."

Shimaji Samezaki pushed away the dining chair, turned and rushed to the guest room - he was the father of the bank employee who unfortunately died in the robbery, and he was also one of the policemen in charge of the case.

Today, it happens to be the 0th anniversary of the "[-] million bank robbery".If Ye Caisan can be caught before [-] o'clock, the gang can spit out the stolen money and pay some price for what happened back then.

Although Hattori Heiji and Conan were still a little dazed, they chased after him reflexively.

The waiter hesitated for a moment, followed uneasy.

As the four of them ran away in a mess, the group of people in the restaurant who were more or less related to "Ye Caisan" fell silent for a moment, lost the mood to eat, and soon dispersed.

Wu Tiangou, who was hanging in the air as a monitor, looked left and right, and soon floated towards Jiang Xia's room.

……

Room 1 was locked, and Shimaji Samezaki knocked for a long time, but no one responded.

The waiter opened the door with a spare key, and saw that the room was very empty, let alone people, not even luggage.

Shimaji Samezaki punched the door angrily, and then quickly ran away, ready to search for the ship.

Hattori Heiji and Conan had already figured out the prosecution period and wanted to help.

But before leaving, the two passed by Room 2 with the closed door next door, suddenly thought of something, and stopped at the same time.

The two looked at each other, and called the waiter who hadn't gone far: "Is anyone staying here?"

The waiter took out the registration book, looked at it, and nodded.Originally, at this time, he should have added "It's Mr. X", but he glanced at it and couldn't recognize the name of this person.

While the waiter was struggling to read, Hattori Heiji and Conan's attention had completely shifted to Room 2.

——Although there is a lot of noise from the sea, just now, Mr. Yuzaki was hammering the door and shouting in room 1 next door. The people in room 2 should be able to hear some movement, but now, the guests here But he doesn't care about the outside world...

Suspicious, very suspicious.

Having said that, the fact of not going to the restaurant for dinner itself can be regarded as a suspicious factor.

...Maybe the person living here will be the mysterious client?

Hattori Heiji thought of this, stopped and began to knock on the door.

His intuition told him that there might be extremely important information hidden behind the door.

He frowned and knocked for more than ten seconds, and when he was about to ask the waiter to help open the door, the door lock turned with a "click".

Hattori Heiji cheered up and looked towards the open door.

A second later, his confident smile froze on his face.

... After a lot of hard work, he actually knocked out a Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia seemed to have just woken up, with one hand arranging the uneven neckline, and the other resting on the doorknob.

Looking at each other, Hattori Heiji couldn't control his expression: "...Why are you here?!"

At the same time, he subconsciously began to find the answer for himself: after he told Conan about the entrustment, he never separated from Conan until he sailed, so it was not Conan who informed him.

In addition, Mao Lilan and Yuanshan and Ye can also be ruled out - if they were the two who informed, they must have boarded the boat together, but now, Jiang Xia is obviously the only one in the room.As for the other two passengers who were said to be resting in the room, one was Ye Caisan, and the number of the remaining one was wrong, it should not be the two of them.In this case……

Could it be that Jiang Xia also received the same anonymous entrustment letter.or……

Hattori Shizuka who met in the morning emerged in Hattori Heiji's mind. In order to prevent backstabs, he only told Hattori Shizuka about the commission he had received.

It won't be what he thinks...

Under Hattori Heiji's eyes gradually shaking, Jiang Xia looked at him, then at Conan who subconsciously hid by the door, and calmly said: "I saw the advertisement in the newspaper and thought it was very interesting, so I came over to take a look. "

Hattori Heiji was taken aback: "Newspaper?"

Jiang Xia was also startled: "You don't know?"

Seeing that Hattori Heiji was very confused, he raised his hand and took the bag hanging on the hanger next to him, found the newspaper with the advertisement in his backpack, and handed it to Hattori Heiji.

Hattori Heiji glanced at it, and his first reaction was a sigh of relief: Great, mom didn't betray him.

... Having said that, if you think about it carefully, my mother actually doesn't know Jiang Xia at all.Tsk, I have suffered too many backstabs, and my thinking has become inertial.

Hattori Heiji pressed his forehead to calm his expression.

Then he glanced at Jiang Xia who seemed to have just woken up, held the doorknob as if nothing had happened, and said while closing the door: "Well, it's actually nothing, you continue to sleep, we'll go first..."

"Knocking on the door was so urgent just now, what happened?" Jiang Xia also grabbed the edge of the door as if nothing had happened, preventing the door from closing. His eyes glanced over Hattori Heiji, and finally fell on Conan.

Hattori Heiji's gaze also turned to Conan.

Conan who received a double stare: "..."

He paused for a moment, and said in a chatty tone, "It seems that a wanted criminal has sneaked into the boat."

"That's it..." Jiang Xia straightened out the hair that was messed up when she hung up the phone just now, and walked out of the door under Hattori Heiji's slightly desperate eyes, "I can't sleep anyway, let me look for it with you."

Hattori Heiji looked at the back of Jiang Xia who naturally blended into the team: "..."

... He no longer knocks on doors in public.

After all, no one knows what creature will come out of the door.

……

Although Hattori Heiji has some complaints about Jiang Xia joining him and Kudo's two-person team.

But now that Jiang Xia is here, he knocked it out himself. In the end, Hattori Heiji could only learn the lesson from the bottom of his heart while telling Jiang Xia about the past, with his own opinion:
"I always feel that the passengers on this ship are very suspicious-no matter how famous a thief is, after 20 years, it shouldn't be so well-known, but just now, except for the two of us, all the other guests in the restaurant knew him, and they were very concerned about his behavior. Existence showed varying degrees of shock."

Jiang Xia nodded and signaled that he was listening: "That's why you came here, want to see that mysterious 'Ye Caisan', and help him arrest and bring him to justice by the way?"
