Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 365 Belmode's Murderous Switch (Chapter)

In the car, when Jiang Xia cheated on innocent real wine.

In the classroom of Didan Primary School, the children are cleaning with cleaning tools listlessly.

After cleaning the window, Ayumi accidentally caught a glimpse of the fish tank on the spacious window sill, and remembered something, showing a melancholy look.

Conan saw her staring at the window in a daze at first, thinking that she was thinking of Jiang Xia who was guarding outside, and worried about how to go home tonight.

But soon, he found that the focus of Ayumi's line of sight was not the outside of Jiang Xia's school, but the window sill, so he wondered: "What's wrong?"

As he spoke, he took a closer look at the fish tank.

At the same time, some plots from speculative novels subconsciously flashed through his mind—a finger floating in the corner of the fish tank, and the fish in the tank died of inexplicable poison...

But no.

The glass of the fish tank is clean, the water is clear, and the fish are very active, swimming around leisurely. When they saw him approaching, they even leaned over to touch the glass to beg for food. There were no strange things like human fingers in the tank.

Ayumi looked at Conan who asked about the situation, hesitated for a moment, and whispered:

"Isn't it my turn to feed the fish on Monday? I forgot to feed that day. I was afraid that the little fish would starve to death, so I sneaked out of the classroom at night, trying to see if they were still alive through the window, and then I... I saw the dark There is a person in your classroom.

"The man was wearing a big white mask, standing furtively on the podium, don't know what he was doing, but looked angry..."

Conan was taken aback when he heard that, was there any suspicious person in the classroom at night?
He thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think of any good plans in the elementary school classroom.Could it be that the criminals planned to kidnap a child, so they came to the classroom to collect information in advance?
Conan's expression became slightly serious: "You didn't tell the teacher about this?"

"I told you! I went to the dean who lives nearby." Speaking of this, Ayumi didn't know what to think, curled her lips, and tears began to pool, "And after that—yesterday and today, he didn't Come to school. I asked other teachers about the situation of the director, but everyone said they didn’t know. I went to the director’s house and rang the bell, but no one opened the door. Huh...it must be because I asked him to help investigate, and he was killed by that sneaky bad guy .”

"It can't be..." Conan thought that maybe the director happened to be on a business trip these two days.But at the same time, he also remembered that the dean lived alone. If he was really killed, no one might find out for a while, resulting in the current state of absenteeism for no reason...

There happened to be a teacher who was off work passing by here.

Conan grabbed one casually: "Mr. Dahata, I have something to ask - do you know why the director has not come to school?"

When Da Hata heard "Director", his face changed, and his expression was distorted for a moment, as if he was trying not to speak out.

He said with a dry smile, "I don't know, maybe something just happened, and I should be coming to work soon. Cough cough, hurry up and go home after cleaning, it's getting late."

As he said that, he ran away in a hurry as if he was afraid of getting into something.

Conan stared at his back suspiciously, feeling that there was a problem, and it was a big one—if the director really needed to go on a business trip, the teacher should have heard some news, but Mr. Ohata's reaction was very strange... Could something really happen? up?

The three children next to them seemed to have drawn the same conclusion from the teacher's attitude.

Ayumi rubbed her eyes reproachfully.

Yuantai and Guangyan comforted her: "In this case, why don't we find out the evil spirit that wanders around the school late at night, find out the truth, and avenge the dean!"

Conan: "..."

He crossed his arms and looked at the flustered and excited child with a disgusted expression on his face, but he was curious like a cat scratching in his heart.

... This thing is really weird.

Moreover, it's rare that Jiang Xia is guarding the school gate, why not check it out tonight to see what's going on.

In this way, if there are really dangerous people, helpers can be found quickly, and Jiang Xia can help send people to the police station...Of course, the gangsters may not escape a round of beatings, but Jiang Xia has always been counted, so it should not be a big problem.

Schools don't let students stay too late.When it was getting dark, the security guard who locked the door urged them to go home.

The four children put away their tools, left the classroom, and hid in the campus instead, intending to find an opportunity to sneak back to the teaching building.

……

Opposite the school.

All the burritos in the car have been eaten.

At the same time, the gate of Didan Primary School was quiet, the iron-colored gate was locked tightly, and no one came out.

Jiang Xia was holding a box of warm miso soup, while drinking, she looked at the campus through the car window, and occasionally glanced at her side from the corner of her eye.

In the driver's seat, "Amuro Toru" was staring at his hand carrying the soup with complicated eyes.

...What a strange person, if she doesn't eat what she brought, she is not happy, and after eating, she is still not happy... Well, the soup is also very fragrant, I haven't noticed this store before, next time I can bring hard work The little brothers of the cat come over and have a taste.In addition to burritos and soup, the store should also sell other things, I don't know how it tastes... Jiang Xia added a place to her daily itinerary.

"Amuro Toru" stared until Jiang Xia finished the last sip of soup, then quietly looked away.

At the same time, he snorted coldly in his heart: If he had known, he would have added some sleeping pills to the soup, and let Wu Zuo personally experience the dangers of society and organizations... Forget it, anyway, she will change her appearance, and there will be opportunities in the future.How about trying gin next time? ... No, that would make it easier for Akai Shuichi to target him.

When Jiang Xia was packing the paper bags and lunch boxes, Belmode crossed his arms and looked outside, only to belatedly realize that something was wrong.

"The school is already closed, and those of your children still haven't come out?" She said in Toru Amuro's voice and tone, with a little gloating tone, "Maybe tomorrow's headline will be 'Innocent children stranded on campus were brutally murdered 'Woolen cloth."

"..." Jiang Xia glanced at "Amuro Toru" and felt that her concentration of yin and yang strange energy was a bit beyond the standard, "Are you free today?"

"Amuro Toru" paused indistinctly, with a little surprise in his eyes.

... If I remember correctly, Gin said that Bourbon didn't know that Uzo already had a code name.It's impolite for a peripheral member to dare to speak to his boss like that...Will he not be retaliated by Bourbon?

Or did Uzo actually recognize her?

Thinking of this, Belmode paused for a moment while rubbing his chin fingers, and looked at the person next to him inquiringly.

However, after Jiang Xia said that sentence, she soon began to observe the outside again, her attention was not on her at all.

Belmod: "..."

Before he could come up with any results, the co-pilot's door suddenly clicked open.

Belmode was startled, and withdrew his thoughts, and saw Jiang Xia opened the door and got out of the car.

With her elbows on the window edge, she asked slightly suspiciously, "Where are you going?"

Jiang Xia originally wanted to leave Belmode and go it alone.

But after seeing her high-end murderous look, she still said something more: "Go to the school to see the situation, maybe they are delayed by something."

As he said that, he closed the car door, did not go to the main entrance of the school, but turned to the side, intending to climb over the wall and go in to take a look at the situation.

If there is nothing to do, take out the children who are hiding in the school, and go to dinner and watch a movie together.

If something happens, get rid of the person who caused the trouble first, and then take the brat away as planned.

……

Jiang Xia quickly walked to an area where there was no one on the side, jumped up and put on the edge of the wall, and climbed over the wall.

As soon as he landed, another hand was placed on the wall behind him.

——"Amuro Toru" jumped over the wall lightly and landed beside him.

Then she straightened up, looked at the simple entertainment equipment nearby, and the teaching building more than ten meters away, and asked Jiang Xia curiously: "Which way are you going?"

Jiang Xia walked towards the building closest to the school gate, and went around to the side entrance.

Jiang Xia Tongzhi also graduated from Didan Primary School.A year ago, when Jiang Xia was lying in the hospital, he had nothing to do to analyze the remaining memories of Jiang Xia Tongzhi, so he was quite clear about the layout of this school - "quite clear", not "very clear", It's not because Jiang Xia has a bad memory, but because Brother Tong Zhi played truant from school since he was a child, and his own memory of elementary school is quite vague.

Belmode followed behind him, with a calm face, but a hint of lightness in his footsteps, like the parents of elementary school students who came to visit on an outing.

"..." Jiang Xia glanced at her through the reflective windows on the ground floor of the building.The boss's compulsion was almost lost by Belmode.

Having said that, if Toru Amuro knew that Belmode was pretending to be him and wandered around, would it be possible for him to become murderous?
After all, Belmode's behavior is actually quite risky for Toru Amuro. Considering the frequency of contact between undercover comrades and his subordinates, as well as the average IQ of his subordinates, if one day "Toru Amuro" walks in the On the street, a police subordinate ran over to say hello, or asked "Amuro Toru" for instructions... The organization may lose another bottle of fake wine.

I have to find an opportunity to remind the boss... well, don't worry too much, let's get rid of the murderous aura that can be squeezed out of Belmode first.

……

in the teaching building.

Pale moonlight streamed in from the spacious window, outlining a long, narrow and dark corridor more than two meters wide.

In the supposedly silent space, there were occasional sound of footsteps.The Detective Boys rubbed the goosebumps on their arms, and they were all silent at this moment.

It's not all affected by the quiet environment.

Instead, I was thinking and making difficult choices.

——Except for Conan, Jiang Xia's figure appeared in the minds of the other three at this time.

The children fell into deep thought: Should they run out to find Jiang Xia to help investigate together, or face the villain who might have killed the dean alone?
The former can effectively prevent the bad guys in the shadows from attacking them—Brother Jiang Xia will definitely catch the bad guys out when they first show up, throw them on the ground and beat them into a broken sack, just like before.

But the problem is, what if brother Jiang Xia didn't enjoy beating that person after beating him, and suddenly remembered that there were still three nights left at school, and deliberately dove off his brat...

The three children shivered imperceptibly.

Then I thought with a fluke, as expected, let’s see the situation first—maybe, the bad guy didn’t come at all tonight, and they can solve the mystery of the dean’s disappearance as long as they trace the traces left by the bad guy...

Conan didn't think so much like his classmates, he had quickly immersed himself in solving the mystery.

According to Ayumi, there have been some weird rumors in the school recently.

One of them is that last week, when a little girl walked into the art classroom, she always felt that the atmosphere was not right.

When she was about to leave, she suddenly felt her scalp go numb, and she understood where the strange feeling came from—all the plaster figures in the classroom were staring at her coldly with lifeless white eyes.

...the plaster figures seemed to come to life.Moves and thinks!

Feeling the eight gazes nailed to his body, the child ran away with a pale face.

But she happened to be a very experimental young schoolmaster.After leaving the eerie environment, the little girl thought back carefully, and always felt that the plaster statue should not be able to move by itself, and the meeting of eyes may be just a coincidence.

So after she escaped, she returned to the art classroom before school that day, and unbelievingly marked the plaster statue and the table.

The next morning, I ran over to have a look again. Each of the eight plaster statues had been moved.

The children stared blankly at the mark, and their young scientific worldview was shattered.She was so scared that she had a fever that day, and she didn't come to school until today.As a victim herself, she became an integral part of the horror legend.

"Then let's go to the art classroom first." Conan suggested.
