Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 653
However, what Conan didn't expect was that Hattori Heiji met Jiangxia in Tottori Prefecture because of the incident at the Twilight Annex.

In addition, Conan remembered the email he had received not long ago from Hattori Heiji—according to Hattori Heiji's observations, Amuro Toru did not have a guilty conscience when facing the police, and his attitude and behavior did not look like gangsters.And Jiang Xia himself is not like a hostage at all, and he has no intention of asking for help in the perfect environment, but he seems to be in a good mood.

In this regard, Yuanshan and Ye proposed a brand new path that Conan had never imagined - Toru Amuro was following the instructions of a mysterious psychiatrist and brought Jiang Xia out to adjust his mentality.

"..."

After thinking about it, Conan always felt that although this assumption was outrageous, the theory of "human traffickers" also had many loopholes.

Thinking about it, he sighed.Forget it, anyway, at present, I don't know where Jiang Xia and Amuro Toru are, so I might as well reserve my opinion and think more about the optimistic speculation about psychotherapy...

……

Soon, a group of three trudged through the muddy path and saw the signboard of Aoi House Hotel.

The three breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Last night, they were trapped in the car by a sudden storm and a car accident.

Although there is some emergency food in the car, and it can barely stay overnight, it is still not as comfortable as staying in a hotel.

Looking at the hotel in front of them, the three of them speeded up their pace and entered the front hall.

……

Put down your luggage at the front desk and feel the relaxed and comfortable atmosphere in the hotel.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to register, a familiar figure suddenly passed by in the corridor next to him - a blond man with conspicuous hues walked all the way from the stairs to the restaurant.

Mao Lilan caught a glimpse of it with sharp eyes, took a look, and greeted in surprise: "Mr. Amuro!"

When she went out with Jiang Xia before, she occasionally met Jiang Xia's boss.And a few days ago, the two parties just ran into each other at the scene of a car accident in Tokyo.Therefore, Mao Lilan remembers clearly the owner of the detective agency who has obvious features and looks like a foreigner.

In addition, because Toru Amuro had a very friendly image when he was not Bourbon or Furutani Rei, Mao Lilan had a very good impression of him.

Toru Amuro is also good at remembering people.

Walking in the corridor, he suddenly heard a familiar voice from the side, and his feet froze slightly.

After a while, Toru Amuro took a deep breath, quickly adjusted his mentality, turned around with a smile on his face, and walked a little closer.

He exchanged pleasantries with the Maori father and daughter who were barely acquaintances, and then said politely, "I'm going to the restaurant."The original intention was to take the opportunity to sneak away, but unexpectedly, he was stopped by the hungry Kogoro Mori, who wanted to hear him introduce what delicious dishes here.

Conan stood behind Mori's father and daughter with a low sense of presence, and secretly looked at Toru Amuro with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

——Although it was not obvious, just now, the moment Anshitou was stopped by Xiaolan, his appearance was a little abnormal, as if he was resisting all kinds of things... Could it be that this mysterious boss has done something wrong? So I don't want to contact Jiang Xia's neighbors and friends.

Thinking of this, Conan poked his head out from the side of Mao Lilan's leg, and asked innocently, "Where's Brother Jiang Xia?"

Toru Amuro: "..." I was sealed to sleep in the bed, I hope the seal can last longer, at least let people finish their meals...

He secretly slandered Jiang Xia's terrible event physique in his heart.

At the same time, thinking of the camera hidden in Jiang Xia's original room, and looking down at Conan, a suspicious child, Toru Amuro felt that it was difficult for him to explain why Jiang Xia didn't sleep in his own room, but ran to the boss's room to make a bed in the middle of the night.

So he changed the subject calmly: "I don't know, maybe it's still in the room, or maybe it's in the restaurant—the food here is good, and there are a lot of fresh mountain delicacies. I'll find a table first, and you can put it on later." Good luggage, you can come and find..."

Before he could finish speaking, there was a terrified scream of "AHH!!" from upstairs.

Toru Amuro: "..."

Mao Lilan, Mori Kogoro and Conan were startled for a moment.

After regaining consciousness, the three of them quickly rushed to the place where the screams came from under Amuro Toru's complicated sight.

As soon as he took a step, he saw a cleaner stumbling down the stairs and escaping from the second floor.When going down the last few steps, the woman tripped over the slightly raised step and fell headlong to the ground.

A figure approached quickly and caught her firmly.

Mao Lilan is very timid when encountering ghosts, but is very reliable at other times.

She stabilized the waiter and said softly, "Don't be afraid, what's wrong?"

In the usually soft eyes, a sharp light flashed secretly at this time.After she finished asking, she stared up at the stairs, her seemingly thin body was ready to kick at any attacker who was following her.

However, after being on guard for a while, no one came down from the second floor.There were only a few onlookers who poked their heads out of doubt after hearing the noise.

"... Dead, dead!" The cleaner was slowed down for two seconds, and finally came back to his senses.

She grabbed the person in front of her and stammered about her experience:
"I, I heard that Jiang Xia lives in our store, so I want to meet him near his room and ask him if he wants breakfast service. If possible, I will ask for an autograph... But when I passed by, I found that his door was open. There was a gap, and no one responded after reminding. After that, I pushed the door open and saw inside, inside..."

She raised her hands to cover her face, and cried like a girl who lost her idol: "He hanged himself!"

Conan: "...?"

... Hattori!You also said that Toru Amuro is not a gangster!
Mori Ran and Mori Kogoro didn't have any prejudice against Toru Amuro. When they suddenly heard this kind of topic, they were stunned, and it took a second to digest what the waiter was saying.

They first thought that the waiter was talking nonsense.But suddenly remembered that a year ago, Jiang Xia had a similar criminal record.

Thinking of this, the expressions of the two changed slightly, and they quickly ran to the second floor.Now is not the time to grieve. If someone just hung up, it might be possible to save him if he puts it down immediately. Thinking about the best, didn't he catch up last time...

When you reach the second floor, you can know which room is Jiang Xia's without asking deliberately.

——When the waiter saw the hanged man just now, he was too flustered, accidentally left the cleaning tools on the spot, blocked Jiang Xia's room door, and screamed loudly.

So now, the doors of other rooms on the same floor have been opened, and several tenants are looking at Room 207 in doubt and vigilance—after confirming the general direction of the screams, they will see that room again. The door of the room was stuck by the vacuum cleaner, and it was not difficult to guess what horrible things were inside, which caused the waiter to scream and run around as if he had seen a ghost.
