Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 582 Robbery Detective
Kidd went through the scene just now in his mind, and felt that Jiang Xia's problem was not serious.

So he passed on the location to Grandpa Terai, and asked the assistant to come and pick up Jiang Xia later.

At the same time, he euphemistically told Terai that besides Jiang Xia, there is an old friend here, and I hope he will not be scared by then...

……

After Kidd sent the message, he was planning to ask Wutengu to take a look at the people, so as to prevent Jiang Xia from being taken away by Amuro Toru's accomplices before Terai Konosuke arrived.

However, as soon as he looked up from the screen of the mobile phone, when he sent the message, Wu Tiangou also squatted down like him just now, stretched out his hand, and flipped through the items carried by the detective.

Soon, Wu Tiangou picked up a pack of cigarettes, looked at them with great interest, seemed to be very satisfied with the taste, and put the cigarettes into his arms confidently.

"..." Kidd thought of the fresh air in the mountains and the dangers of tobacco and alcohol that he often saw, and blurted out, "This thing is not good for the lungs."

... The foggy dog ​​should have lungs.Except for an extra pair of wings and a special recipe, he seems to be the same as a human being.

Speaking of which, a well-known detective like Jiang Xia, who looks very positive, actually carries a cigarette with him... Kidd fell into deep thought for a moment: Is this detective usually under a lot of pressure?Does this have something to do with the mysterious and weird boss Amuro who is highly suspected of being a villain?
Beside, Jiang Xia ignored Kidd's advice.

Wu Tiangou is a puppet, where are the lungs, and this is not smoke...

——When the main body is not around, the puppet and the ghosts in the puppet need to replenish energy directly through ghost mint.

In the past, when Jiang Xia drove the puppet of Wutiangou and squatted to guard Kidd, he would occasionally order a ghost mint to recharge the puppet.

But at that time, you often have to pay attention to the scent, in case Kidd finds out that Wu Tiangou actually smokes the same "cigarette" as Jiang Xia.

But after today, this problem is no longer a problem.

——Wutiangou can guard the thief and steal his gems, so it can also guard the detective and steal the detective's smoke.

……

Kidd finished persuading in a low voice, and found that Wutiangou didn't mean to throw away the cigarette, but turned a deaf ear and looked into the distance.He could only sigh helplessly.

... Otherwise, what else can I do, I can't grab it, I can't beat it.

Even now, there is still something that needs the help of Wutiangou.

Kidd leaned Jiang Xia's body on the tree and looked at Wu Tiangou: "I sent a message to Grandpa Terai, and he will come to pick up this detective later. If you are tired from flying, you can go back by his car when the time comes— —The place I am going today is not a pre-selected destination for stealing treasures, but a passive banquet, and I may not be able to get suitable treasures."

…Speaking of this, Kidd suddenly became a little puzzled.

This is Tottori Prefecture, which is far away from Tokyo.Wutiangou actually appeared here... I don't know if it accidentally saw someone else's invitation letter, or discovered that the strange thief had gone out, so it followed all the way like before.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that this is because on weekdays, Wutiangu is not only active in Tokyo, but also in other places.

After all, there is always a gap between the times when I see Wutiangu.Maybe Wutengu spends his time wandering in the mountains and forests everywhere except occasionally going back to Tokyo to rob him...

Anyway, at such a long distance, Wutiangou can really fly.The built-in wings are more useful than hang gliding, not only can travel quickly over long distances, but also can be used to capture detectives at critical moments...

Kidd was vaguely envious, and remembered again the plan of "replacing the hang glider with artificial wings" that was dismissed by Grandpa Terai.

However, looking at the watch, the time is already a little tight, and now is not the time to covet other people's wings.

After seeing him finish speaking, Wu Tiangou nodded, Kidd was a little relieved and didn't stay any longer.

He hurried towards the direction he came from, quickly changing his appearance into Jiang Xia's appearance while running.

……

behind Kidd.

Jiang Xia drove the puppet of Wutiangou, stood quietly in place, and watched Kidd go away.

After the figure of "myself" completely disappeared from the field of vision, he walked to the side of the tree, picked up the main body, and flew away quickly.There is no plan to hand over the main body to Terai Konosuke.

The body is closer to the puppet, which can effectively reduce the consumption of murderous energy.

On the other hand, if the old man was frightened by Wutiangou and fled back to Tokyo overnight with Jiang Xia's body, the puppet might dissipate because of too much murderous energy consumption just as soon as it showed its face...

Anyway, he didn't say just now that he would not take away the main body.

Jiang Xia fluttered her wings with a little guilt, took advantage of the night, and flew away low-key close to the woods, rushing to her destination.

……

Kidd knew nothing about the Wutiangou stealing incident that happened behind the scenes.

He concentrated on following the same path and returned to the place where the vehicle was.

While in the woods, Kidd had thrown away the clothes he used to pretend to be Toru Amuro.

Although the spare tire he brought just now was thrown at the scene of the sneak attack on Jiang Xia, it was made of black technology materials.It should have been discouraged and turned into a thin film by now, blown away by the mountain wind.In short, if you go back now, you shouldn't be exposed.

At the same time, Kidd recalled Jiang Xia's reaction to "Amuro Toru" just now.

Then it was discovered that although Jiang Xia was secretly wary of the boss, before "Toru Amuro" attacked him, Jiang Xia had been sitting quietly in the car, waiting for him to come back.And when "Amuro Toru" asked Jiang Xia to help change the spare tire, Jiang Xia did get out of the car to get tools...

Generally speaking, it is still the attitude of employees towards their superiors.

Probably Jiang Xia has discovered the problem of Toru Amuro, but has not exposed it yet.

"..." In this case, let's get along in a normal way first.

……

Kidd made one last adjustment to his disguise and clothes before running out of the woods.

Then he climbed back to the road along the sloping embankment on the side of the road.

Then he saw Toru Amuro standing by the side of the car, and the two spare tires next to Toru Amuro.

Toru Amuro was pressing on his phone, not knowing who he was sending a message to, with a serious expression on his face.

Sensing movement on the side of the road, he looked up and saw "Jiang Xia", he was startled for a moment, put away his phone: "Where did you go just now?"

"Jiang Xia" took a few breaths, and looked like he had been sprinting for a long time: "I think the broken tire looks like it was pierced by a triangular nail. Then I saw someone poking around in the woods, so I caught up and took a look... ...but it got darker as it went deeper, and I couldn't catch up with it, so I had to come back again."

Amuro recalled the sharp claw marks on his spare tire last night, and the terrible bite marks again and again in the past, and frowned: "If you see it again in the future, don't chase it alone, shoot..."

He originally wanted to say that it would be fine to take a photo, which means that he has grasped important clues and is safe.

But in the middle of the conversation, he suddenly remembered that Jiang Xia's mobile phone was with him, and stopped the conversation a little awkwardly.

I thought that when I got to the city, I would have to get a camera for Jiang Xia—according to Jiang Xia's event physique, he might really be able to draw out the mysterious force that scratches the tires...
