Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 492

Almost at the same time, the windows of the office cracked and shattered, bullets spun and flew, digging deep holes on the coffee table—the sniper hiding outside the window fired.

Jiang Xia who was forced to lie down with the other two: "..."

Even the movements of these policemen are exactly the same.Fortunately, not long ago, he was thrown by Police Officer Sato once, and this time he was thrown again, and the appearance of landing will be more chic than the last time...

The sound of bullets hitting twice rang out before returning to silence.

Jiang Xia dusted off the dust on her body and sat up, intending to take a peek at the situation outside the window.

But before he had time to probe, he was blocked back again - Toru Amuro gestured to him and the client, signaling them to stay where they are.He himself dodged to another blind spot, and after using obstacles such as cabinets and refrigerators to alternate twice, he successfully moved to the window, and slammed the curtains to block the view from the outside.

Afterwards, Toru Amuro stood up, looked back at the bullet marks on the table, recalled the general location of the broken window just now, thoughtfully.

Judging from these traces, even if they sat still just now, the two bullets could not hit anyone.

And according to the location of the sniper he saw just now, although the location of the sniper is not too close, it is definitely not far away... The quality of the killer outside is so worrying?
Or is this an arranged drama?
... If it is the latter, then who is this acting for?
Amuro looked at the client and Jiang Xia who stood up from behind the sofa, his eyes were full of suspicion.

However, if you think about it carefully, if Jiang Xia is really Wu Zuo, it seems that he shouldn't have arranged this sniping so roughly. suspicious……

The suspicious guest was holding Jiang Xia's shoulder, shouting and shaking: "He really came here! Tell him to stop quickly, or I will be killed by him!"

Jiang Xia persuaded with a good temper: "Calm down, don't worry, we can catch up."

Toru Amuro walked up to them and straightened the crooked sofa.

At this time, he saw a wallet lying on the ground, so he picked it up and took a look.

This is the client's wallet, and the name "Chaowenzao" is indeed printed on the driver's license inside, and the photo also matches - what the client left on the registration form seems to be his real name.

……

Before returning the wallet to the client, Toru Amuro secretly took a photo and sent it to Kazami Yuya for him to check.

Afterwards, he conveniently searched for the name "Chaowenzao" in the organization's database.

The page refreshes quickly.

In the organization's database, the relevant information of the client was indeed entered - he is the president of the Kansai housing agency Tokyo branch, followed by a series of brief introductions.

But it's just a normal entry.

In addition, Chao Wenzao is not on the assassination list, nor is it in the partner or wooing target, and it seems to have nothing to do with the organization.

... Even so, Toru Amuro still felt that this person had a big problem.

Even if he has nothing to do with the organization, there must be other things to hide.

……

Jiang Xia glanced out the window.

According to his observations, the sniper who sneaked up on them had no murderous look on his body, nor was he haunted by ghosts. He was probably not a silver fox, but just an ordinary passerby.And now, passers-by have already run away with guns, so it's not worth chasing.

Jiang Xia turned to look at the client in front of him.

The client was still shaking him anxiously, Jiang Xia didn't want to continue being shaken, and changed the subject: "Now there is evidence that the 'Silver Fox' attacked you with a gun, why don't you go to the police?"

Amuro nodded secretly inwardly.

Chao Wenzao interrupted angrily: "Those policemen have someone to use! Do you think I haven't reported to the police? It's because they couldn't find anyone, so I can only come to the detective!"

Toru Amuro: "..."

He glanced at his phone screen.

His subordinate Fengjian Yuya is not very good at doing big things, but he is surprisingly efficient when it comes to trivial things.

At this time, part of the client's information has been sent to his mobile phone by the speed of light.

——The identity of Chao Wenzao is real, and the recent large remittance is also true. He seems to have hired a killer.

But other than that, the police report is fake, and the misdiagnosis is also fake.

——Chao Wenzao did have a physical examination five days ago, but he was not misdiagnosed.

Therefore, the reason why he came to the door "he didn't want to die on the hospital bed after getting terminally ill, so he hired a killer" was fundamentally problematic.

...In that case, what is the real purpose of this man coming to the detective?
As soon as this idea came up, the suspicious client made a new move.

"Actually, I have a way to lure the silver fox out."

Chao Wenzao took a deep breath and said as if he had made up his mind:
"I like mountaineering very much, if I have to choose a suitable place to die, I would rather die on the mountain.

"So when I asked 'Silver Fox' for an assassination commission, I told him that if he killed me while climbing the mountain, he would get double the reward—that is, if I went to climb the mountain, he would definitely follow. Let's Go to the mountains and try it!"

Jiang Xia comforted the excited client: "Okay, okay."

Toru Amuro: "..."

The operation traces were too heavy, which made it increasingly difficult for him to connect this incident with the conjecture of "Uzo's arrangement".

But thinking about it the other way around, if Jiang Xia is pure black, then it may be that Jiang Xia found out that he was investigating Uzuo and did it deliberately...

Alas, that's why we say that objective evidence is very important, otherwise we can only guess randomly. "Jiang Xia is Wu Zuo", "Jiang Xia is just an incident physique", these two results can be justified by guessing either way...

In an instant, Toru Amuro realized how Gin felt when he was caught as an undercover agent, and he also realized Rum's strange attitude towards him, being in a dilemma.

But in any case, this strange commission must be followed to see, there may be unexpected gains along the way.

Of course, it's best not to directly say that you are going, but to make a surprise attack.In this way, no matter whether it is Jiang Xia or the client who has the problem, they will be able to disrupt their plans even more...

While Toru Amuro was thinking silently.

Next to him, Jiang Xia, who was very friendly to the clients, had already made an appointment with Chao Wenzao to go mountaineering and catch silver foxes together.

——The morning after tomorrow, at Danyuan Mountain.

The air in Danyuan Mountain is fresh, the altitude is not too high, and the scenery is average. There are few tourists in this season.If Silver Fox intends to assassinate among the tourists, it will be easier to identify him.

Jiang Xia talked with the client about the precautions for the day and sent him to the door.

Thinking expectantly for a while about the life of picking up ghosts the day after tomorrow, Jiang Xia turned around and found that the office was empty, and Toru Amuro had already left.

Jiang Xia: "...?"

Didn't the boss look like he had something to say before...
