Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 397 Jiang Xia's Illegal Events (Chapter [-])
The calm middle-aged editor-in-chief looked at Hattori Heiji and the policemen who got off the car one after another, and was moved to tears: "I surrender!"

Hattori Heiji:"……?"

He glanced at Yuan Shan and Ye and the three children who had a slightly dull gaze, and then looked at Jiang Xia who was sitting on the small sofa next to him, who seemed a little tired for some reason.

Finally, he looked down at the bald man who was holding his leg and crying bitterly.

... This middle-aged man who shouted to surrender did not have any scars on his face.However, as he squirmed desperately towards the police at the door, his clothes were scratched by the floor, and a large area was exposed on his shoulders, and many strips of bruises could be vaguely seen inside.

"..." Hattori Heiji silently wiped his face. Although he was not there just now, he probably already knew what happened here...

The policeman walking here obviously felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit strange, and he asked, "What's going on?"

Hattori Heiji was slightly startled when he heard someone approaching.Reflexively, he bent down and pulled Misami Heihachi's neckline back to its original shape.

Then he dragged him up and handed him over to the policeman who came behind him. He cleared his throat guiltily: "Well, he seems to have found out his conscience and said that he wants to surrender..."

"Huh?" The tall policeman was a little puzzled.

But seeing Yushang Heihachi crying with snot and tears, and the whole person exuding a "take me away" atmosphere, the police felt that they understood again-this murderer should have just been exposed by the detective. , found that there was a misunderstanding in the murder, and was regretting... They have seen this kind of thing a lot.

The police pulled the man into the police car and sat down.

——Actually, he originally wanted someone to sit in the lobby of the hotel and ask about the situation first, but Misami Heihachi refused to go back anyway.

So I had to get in the police car...

……

Hattori Heiji looked at the closed police car door and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

... Although I don't agree with Jiang Xia's somewhat illegal behavior, Jiang Xia's actions should also be to protect the innocent people in the hotel.

Moreover, although Jiang Xia's appearance of beating people is scary, but when you think about it carefully, he seldom takes the initiative to beat people—every time when criminals try to attack others, Jiang Xia goes to stop him, and then he can't stop the car, which makes him seem very cruel ...

Having said that, Hattori Heiji always feels that he has been an accomplice, and his conscience is a little bit sorry, and he is sorry for the law he respects.

However, as a little mixed-race girl reached out to grab the policeman, she pointed to the sofa.Then the police fished out a slightly bent rifle from under the sofa... Hattori Heiji straightened his back again.

Jiang Xia and the others actually met a gunman. For this kind of person, they should really preemptively deprive the other party of their ability to resist—what if they have other miniature guns hidden on their bodies.

……

The reasoning of the hotel case has been completed, and the murderer is also very cooperative.

A reporter arrived a little late.Huiyuan Ai noticed them keenly, and immediately pulled up the hood to cover his conspicuous hair, put on a cartoon mask that fits the image of a child to cover his face, and then hid behind the large Dr. skilled.

The police did not notice this small episode.They left some hands to collect evidence.After registering the contact information of everyone in the hotel, the other police officers prepared to go to the Spider Mansion and continue to work overtime to deal with the unfinished cases there.

Jiang Xia also went back.

Next, he plans to transfer to Moon Shadow Island, and the spider mansion is closer to the pier than the hotel.

In addition, an enthusiastic policeman seemed to recognize him and told him that there was a new murder case at the Spider Mansion—this little policeman shared what he knew about the Spider Mansion while his colleagues were busy with the Star Hotel. I told Jiang Xia all the details.Then he stared at Jiang Xia eagerly, as if he was staring at a magical machine that could immediately spit out the list of murderers after inputting on-site information.

Jiang Xia was silent for a moment, leaving a sentence "Rob is a bit suspicious", and then said nothing more, planning to go to the police car - knowing that there is a case in the Spider Mansion, as a high school student detective with a strong thirst for knowledge, if he doesn't go there, he will It seemed so strange.

……

Jiang Xia shared a police car with Hattori Heiji, Toyama and Ye, while Rob got into another car. The puppet clay in the car was blocked too tightly, giving him the illusion that the car could not be driven.

This time, Hattori Heiji was the only one who stayed in the spider mansion to solve the case.It may be that some kind of potential has been stimulated. He has already collected a lot of information, and he only needs to sort out the language in the end.

Since the task of solving the case has basically been completed, Hattori Heiji is more concerned about another matter than this.

"When you were away, I heard a lot from the servants of Takeda's family." Hattori Heiji said with a sigh, "I probably know why Misa Takeda hanged himself suddenly."

Just now when the police told Jiang Xia about the murder in the spider mansion, Yuan Shan and Ye also listened a lot.

So after getting in the car, she kept her ears open, eavesdropping on the two people in the back seat discussing the case.Hearing this sentence suddenly, she grabbed the back of the chair and turned her head, wondering: "Why?"

"It was Rob's message when he left three years ago—"

Hattori Heiji glanced at the police car obliquely ahead, and looked away complicatedly.

Then he raised his hand and gestured a few letters to Yuan Shan and Ye in the air: "When asked about his evaluation of Miss Meisha, he wrote down 'shine' to describe his first impression of Meisha, which means she is like a Light. But Ms. Misa’s English is not very good, so I read this word in Japanese Roman pronunciation, and pronounced it as 'shi ne'..."

Yuan Shan and Ye were stunned.Suddenly, I felt a little sad, and a little ridiculous.

Jiang Xia's shoulders suddenly felt numb...not psychologically, but really numb.

He glanced at the car window, and through the reflection of the dark sky, he vaguely saw Miss Spider who was originally sitting on his shoulders stretched out her eight sharp legs at some point, clutching him tightly as if there was no place to rest. .The translucent bamboo hat on the new ghost's head drooped, and big tears flowed out under the cover. The tears gathered on her chin, and then dripped into the clothes one by one, and finally returned to the ghost body... This cycle is very economical.

It's just a bit murderous to toss back and forth...

Just got a lot of killing intent from editor-in-chief Xie Ding, Jiang Xia thought about it, became a little generous for a while, took out a sprig of ghost mint and lighted it, intending to relieve his fatigue from staying up all night + staying up all night, and by the way, give Ms. Spider a supplement to prevent She cried herself out for a while.

The lighter clicked, the flame burst out, and a round spark lit up on the end of the cigarette as he breathed.

Yuan Shan and Ye's originally dull eyes moved slightly and moved over.

She looked at the cigarette that didn't quite match Jiang Xia, and felt that she should say something like "It's not legal for you to smoke", "There are still policemen sitting in front of you"...

But when he turned his head secretly, he found that the little policeman who was driving seemed to be a young man who had just joined the job. He was still shocked by this absurd love tragedy story.

Looking at Jiang Xia again, remembering what happened just now, Yuan Shan and Ye thought, maybe this is also Jiang Xia’s way to relieve stress... And this cigarette doesn’t smell like tobacco, but more like some plants... Maybe it just looks like smoke, but it's actually a special potion made by that Doctor Strange in Tokyo.

So in the end, she just silently stared at Jiang Xia's smoke without saying anything.

Hattori Heiji did not have such a complicated and tortuous mental journey - he was still concentrating on how to solve the case later.

Although detectives shouldn't hide the truth, the Shine incident doesn't seem to have much impact on the follow-up of the case.

"It's better not to say it." Jiang Xia felt that Miss Spider's strength in pulling him was a little stronger, so she opened her mouth to shake the balance in Hattori Heiji's heart:

"'Hanging himself because of shine', after all, is just a speculation, maybe there are other secrets in it. If you are not sure, please hide it from the police—this is not selfishness, just to avoid misleading others."

"!" Hattori Heiji felt that the second half of the sentence made sense, and immediately stopped struggling, "That's right."

Police officer in the front row: "..."

He was still in the car, and it was too much to say "keep it from the police" in front of him.

...But forget it, since everyone thinks he doesn't exist, then he can pretend he didn't hear it.The young policeman sighed with mixed emotions, and continued to be a car tool man without emotion.

Hattori Heiji finished his entanglement, gained extra energy, and suddenly realized something.

He paused for a moment, then looked at Jiang Xia suspiciously: "Why do I feel that you are not surprised at all after hearing this tragic misunderstanding...you already knew?"

"..."

Jiang Xia actually wanted to put on a surprised expression just now, but was interrupted by Yuan Shan and Ye.

Later, he was attracted by the spider ghost again, and he was very concerned about those crystal clear tears, worried that they would not be caught by his sleeves, and would fall elsewhere, making it difficult to recover... for a moment he forgot to fool Hattori Heiji.

However, in the face of these high school student detectives with perfect brain power, it should be too late to start fooling around now...

Jiang Xia bit the cigarette butt of Ghost Mint, and said softly, "Surprise is not only the surprise on the face."

——He needs a cigarette to suppress his shock, isn't it much more serious than being surprised on his face.

Hattori Heiji:"……"

Although it makes sense, he always feels that this Tokyo detective is perfunctory to him...

However, thinking of this afternoon, on the way to Takeda's house together, Rob used "shine" and "shine" to describe Takeda Misa when chatting.

Think again about the police fan who gave Jiang Xia information about the spider mansion just now...

Hattori Heiji suddenly felt that it was normal for Jiang Xia to think about shine before he opened his mouth——Jiang Xia, it is not surprising to see anything in the shortest time, and he understands everything.

……

After smoothing over the case of the Spider Mansion and solving Miss Spider's commission by the way, Jiang Xia stuffed the burnt Ghost Mint into a portable ashtray.

Then, against Hattori Heiji's strange gaze, which was sometimes suspicious and sometimes suddenly realized, he strategically pretended to be asleep.

Judging from the information provided by Hattori Heiji just now, the Kansai detective had already deduced the case before following the police to the Star Hotel.

It's just that Hattori Heiji is still struggling with Rob's shine message, and the sudden murder case at the Star Hotel has not started to solve the case.

Now that the problem has been solved, Jiang Xia thought, when he "wakes up", Hattori Heiji should have automatically solved the case.

... I hope that future potential clients will realize that asking this Osaka detective to come over may bring disaster to the client after reading the report on Hattori Heiji's case.Then, in order to avoid this kind of disaster, they send commission letters to other detectives—yes, such as a high school student detective in Tokyo who is friendly and efficient in solving crimes.

……

Hattori Heiji finished tangling about Shine, and planned to go through his own case-solving process with Jiang Xia again-this is like doing a question usually, if the teacher doesn't send a reference answer, then the question is finished and it's done.But if there is an answer on the side, many people can't help but look at it... This is the situation of Hattori Heiji at this time.

It's just that he just straightened out his thoughts and turned his head. Before he could shake Jiang Xia, who had closed his eyes, Yuan Shan and Ye in the front row suddenly stretched out an arm and slapped him precisely on his mouth.

Yuan Shan and Ye whispered: "Don't disturb his rest - I heard that he met that kid named Conan yesterday and was forced to stay up all night."

... Although Yuan Shan and Ye didn't know the relationship between "meeting Conan" and "staying up all night", when she was taking a nap at the Star Hotel, she heard Jiang Xia explain it to his acquaintances in this way.

After the old man and the children listened, they didn't refute Jiang Xia.It can be seen that this may be the truth.

Hattori Heiji understood.

Jiang Xia also encountered a case on the way here?

In this case, it will be published in the newspaper almost tomorrow, and then I will buy a copy and come back to watch it...

Thinking of this, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but glanced at Jiang Xia again: This guy actually gave Kudo the blame, obviously he could run into a case when he came out to watch any star, and it was still two lives, and when he met Kudo, he broke all night. Together, I met three times in one day... Hiss, what is going on with this man.

Hattori Heiji felt that this probability simply surpassed the category of "coincidence".

But after thinking about it, the frequency of his own encounters with cases, in the eyes of ordinary citizens, is also ridiculously high.

Maybe ordinary citizens feel exactly the same when they look at him as he looks at Jiang Xia now... In short, this should be just some kind of coincidence.It may even be God's will, something like "the stronger the ability to solve crimes, the more cases will be piled up" and the like.

No, no, the world is materialistic. To believe in science, there is no providence...

Hattori Heiji briefly fell into confusion.

……

When he arrived at Takeda's house, Jiang Xia took advantage of Hattori Heiji's reasoning and went around a small dark corner nearby.

However, no suspicious man in black ran out to meet him.

There is still no signal on the mobile phone, and emails and text messages cannot be received.

Looking at the empty inbox, Jiang Xia couldn't help worrying that Gin and Vodka thought it was too troublesome to meet a murder case along the way, so they left him and ran away alone.
