Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 648
After a few seconds, Toru Amuro recovered from his contemplation.

He was a little tired, but he could only show vigilance and let Jiang Xia into the living room.Then he found the equipment from his bag, and searched his room for a while, looking for similar equipment.

Of course, there is nothing to gain - except that there are no cameras, and there is no bugging equipment in his house, which is very clean.

Amuro Toru then "reasoned" casually while dismantling the camera Jiang Xia brought:
"We leave the room for the same amount of time. If it's aimed at the organization, the camera should be placed on my side instead of yours.

"So, it could just be that someone is watching that room, and you just happened to live in it. Or it could just be that someone wants to take a sneak shot.

"Of course, it's also possible that your fanatical fans sneaked in while we were eating - I checked when I checked in. The hotel's anti-theft measures are average, and the door locks are not difficult to pick."

Toru Amuro fiddled with the camera for a while, and after confirming that it was his own person who had caused an oolong, not a murder case, he immediately relaxed.

He yawned, just wanted to get things done quickly, and cover up for those unreliable public security officers: "It doesn't seem to be a big deal at the moment. We still have important tasks. There are no other hotels around here. The weather It’s also not suitable to leave overnight. In short, don’t disturb the people in the store—you can make do with me and make a floor bed here.”

Jiang Xia: "...?"

...At times like this, shouldn't the culprit who asked his subordinates to bug him to voluntarily release the bed?

...But after thinking about it, if he is really so close to the people, he will not be like the Bourbon of the organization, but like a polite and good policeman who respects the old and loves the young.

He sighed inwardly.The floor is just the floor, anyway, this store is all covered with tatami mats, and there is not much difference between the bed and the floor.

……

late at night.

In the hotel, the vast majority of people have already fallen asleep, only the two sleepy-eyed staff on duty remained at the front desk.

Amid the heavy rain and howling wind, the small door on the side of the hotel was creaked open.

A figure sneaked in quietly.

Sendaf pressed the peaked cap on his head, avoiding other people's sight, and walked towards Room 207 like a silent ghost, and found the room registered by Jiang Xia.

——Yesterday, the waiter in the store named Shenbao Daxiong asked him to pretend to be Jiang Xia, and tricked him into stealing a box from the innkeeper with bad eyes.He also said that he would be paid a lot of money when things were done.

However, with the arrival of Zhen Jiangxia, this "well-paid" part-time job has come to naught.

Sendaf has been busy pretending to be rich and handsome to deceive women recently, which is the time when he needs to invest in the early stage.

Just now, after accepting the money thrown by Daxiong, the treasure, Sendaf always felt that, compared with the perfunctory bills, the real treasure should be the box in Jiang Xia's room.

So he decided to touch in and try his luck.

……

There was no one in the corridor on the second floor, only the soft light of the corridor lamp quietly shining.

Sendaf came to the door of Jiang Xia's room, Wei Dai took a deep breath nervously, took out the tools, and began to pick the lock—he had also done burglary before, and he was no stranger to this kind of work.

Soon, the old door of the hotel was pried open with a click.

Against the backdrop of the silent corridor, the noise was much louder than expected.

Shocked by the movement, Sendaf held his breath and froze on the spot for two seconds.

After a while, it was confirmed that there was no movement around, and room 207 was also quiet, Jiang Xia didn't seem to notice his arrival.

Then he stepped lightly, opened the door and slipped into the dark room.

At the same time, I secretly prayed in my heart—that detective had better be fast asleep.

And if Jiang Xia didn't sleep and saw him...

A cold light flashed in Sendaf's eyes, and he clenched the knife in his pocket - it's not like he didn't kill people in street fights before, otherwise he wouldn't have to hide and live by working and courting women. Unable to use documents to find legitimate work.

In short, if things don't go well and the burglary turns into a burglary and homicide, then he can still throw the blame on Shenbao Daxiong.Anyway, Shenbao Daxiong is also looking at the box in Jiang Xia's hand, which is very suspicious.And as an outlaw fanatic, Sendaf always has an intuition that Shenbao Daxiong may also be carrying some kind of case, which cannot withstand investigation.In front of the police, this person is an excellent shield.

……

When Sen Dafu was rummaging through the suitcase in Jiang Xia's room.

the other side.

Shenbao Daxiong also sneaked to the door of Jiang Xia's room with a simple thought of "wanting [-] million yen in the suitcase".

Before coming here, as a hotel employee, he first stole the spare key of Jiang Xia's house from the counter.

However, at this time, when it was time to pry open the door, Shenbao Daxiong was surprised to find that Jiang Xia's door was not locked.

...what is that detective doing?He hasn't slept yet?

But the cat's eye was pitch black, and the cracks in the door were also dark, with no light seeping through.It can be seen that the lights in the house have been turned off at this time.

"..." Shenbao Daxiong fell into thinking: Could it be that Jiang Xia was used to living in a room that locks automatically, but when he suddenly encountered this old hotel, he forgot to lock the door?There have been customers who have done similar things before.

But, whatever the truth, it was fine for him as a thief to have an unlocked door—even with a key, the door made a moderate noise when it was opened.

Before, Shenbao Daxiong was worried that the movement would wake up Jiang Xia, but now there is no need to worry too much.

Thinking of this, he gently pushed down the doorknob, pushed open the door silently, and walked into the hallway.

As soon as he got used to the dim light in the room, Shenbao Daxiong suddenly met a pair of eyes.

——"Jiang Xia" was still awake.

When the door was opened, the light from the corridor also shone into the room.Perhaps attracted by this ray of light, "Jiang Xia" noticed the person entering the room, and looked up vigilantly.

In the room, the curtains were open, and the light from the courtyard streamed in through the windows.In the dim light, Shenbao Daxiong saw "Jiang Xia" squatting by the window, checking an open box.

...check the contents of the suitcase, why not turn on the light? !

This abnormal place made Shenbao Daxiong suddenly alert.He suddenly remembered that during dinner, when he came to take a peek in Jiang Xia's room, he heard the movement of people coming and going in the room, and a few big words popped up in his mind, "Law enforcement by fishing".

Thinking of this, Shenbao Daxiong grinned a stiff smile.

He was just about to thicken his skin and find an excuse, saying that he passed by here and found that the door was unlocked, and wanted to come in to remind the guests.Then he left in seconds, pleading not guilty.In the absence of evidence, Jiang Xia can't do anything even if he has some guesses.

However, before opening his mouth, Shenbao Daxiong caught a glimpse of Jiang Xia's clothes and suddenly felt something was wrong.

——In related reports of the case.Jiang Xia always likes to wear low-key black clothes.

Therefore, before sending Sen Dafu to come over, Shenbao Daxiong specially told this impostor to remember to dress according to Jiang Xia's common dressing style.

However, tonight, seeing the real Jiang Xia face to face, Shenbao Daxiong was surprised to find that Jiang Xia was wearing blue and white clothes, which looked quite sunny.

So at that time, Shenbao Daxiong didn't realize that the person in front of him was actually Jiang Xia until he took the luggage from Jiang Xia's hand.The innkeeper only recognized the person by the name on the name book... But now, "Jiang Xia" in the room is still black.

... This is fake Jiangxia.

What is he doing here? !
