Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 664 You Look So Scary

Although they were just some basic suggestions, the detectives still intuitively felt that the boss of the detective agency in front of them was much more reliable than the police department they led.

So a group of policemen, together with the enthusiastic staff of the hotel, divided into several teams and searched nearby.

Seeing that no one planned to go back with him, Shan Cun stopped and ran towards the parking lot—he didn’t want to drive back to the city alone, which meant that he had to go through a large deep forest cursed by the head god alone. On the way, he had a whim and stopped halfway to hang himself on a tree... That would be too bad.

So, after hesitating for a moment, Shancuncao ran back to Jiang Xia in a desperate manner.

This detective looks righteous and has a good temper. He stands under the sun, as if ghosts and ghosts can't get close to him, and feels safer next to him...

Sure enough, although he soon felt the chill around him, he just felt cold, and he didn't have the idea of ​​running into the deep forest to hang himself... Shancuncao secretly heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that his decision was very wise, and he got closer to Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia turned her head and saw the ghosts who had found interesting toys and hung them on Shancun Cao, who were poking him curiously at this time, and Shancun Cao who was shivering one by one, but for some reason had a happy smile on their faces .

Jiang Xia: "...?"

After a moment of bewilderment, he silently moved a little further away, maintaining due awe and vigilance for things beyond the scope of his cognition.

Shancun Cao was keenly aware of the "life-saving straw" being far away, and posted it again calmly.

However, on the way, he was suddenly stopped by a black hand stretched out from the side.

Toru Amuro has been watching with distaste for a long time.

He looked at the leading policeman: "Aren't you going to work?"

Shancun became worried, cleared his throat, and said solemnly: "I have to be in charge of the summary work."

At this time, the innkeeper who had already gone back thought of something and came back again:
"By the way, I remembered. A few tens of meters to the south of the hotel, there is an old mansion built along the mountain. Now it has been basically abandoned because it is too damp inside, but it can be used to shelter from the rain... It is an old mansion there. A good place for Tibetans to hide things. Although the disappeared Ksitigarbha statue is not too big, it is also very heavy. If Shenbao took it, it should not be placed too far away."

"..."

Although Yamamura Cao's brain circuits are a little clearer, he is an elite policeman in terms of resume after all.He immediately understood the reading comprehension that popped up suddenly - he had to go to that mansion as soon as possible, otherwise if there was a slight delay and the suspect who was originally in it ran away, he would be in big trouble.

After thinking clearly, Yamamura Cao looked around and wanted to summon a subordinate tool man.

However, all the detectives he brought had been dispatched by Toru Amuro just now.

"..." The hateful boss of the detective agency.

Yamamura made a desperate slander.

But soon, he looked at Jiang Xia and Amuro Toru next to him, and suddenly had an idea:

"By the way, you guys go over there with me to take a look - in order to delay the time, the murderer might put a fake place in there to fool us, and leave with the real one. And you have been in contact with the place yesterday, so you can just help to distinguish it. "

This excuse is obviously very far-fetched, even if it is Yamamura Cao, his eyes can't help but wander when he says it.

But for some reason, neither of the detectives turned him down.

……

The innkeeper was not with them.The store is also in a mess now, and he has to go back and look at it.

Jiang Xia, Amuro Toru, and Yamamura Cao followed the innkeeper's direction and walked towards the hidden building that had grown grass on the roof.

On the way, Amuro glanced at the gloomy mansion, then turned to Shancun Cao, and asked in a chatty manner:

"Have you had a medical checkup recently?"

This question is actually a bit strange.

But Yamamura Cao was nervous at this moment, and was eager for someone to talk to him, so he thought that Toru Amuro was also using small talk to relieve the pressure, and replied casually: "Of course! The body is the first, especially in a dangerous profession like ours."

"I see." Toru Amuro gradually calmed down, "There is no underlying disease such as hypertension and heart disease."

Yamamura raised his chin proudly, and snorted coldly: "How could it be? I'm still so young."

"Oh." Toru Amuro withdrew his gaze from scrutinizing him, and stopped chatting.

The distance between the hotel and the mansion is not too far.

It didn't take long for them to arrive at the main entrance of the mansion.

This foreign-style building was built by the side of the mountain, and the lower floor was just embedded in the valley, surrounded by mountains, with an airtight ceiling above it.

On the only exposed side, the glass on the window was broken and covered with a thick layer of dust.The door was also covered by weeds and overgrown branches, making it look like a haunted house in the woods.

Shancun Cao stared at the rusted gate with a troubled expression on his face. He really wanted to say "Why don't you go in and I'll watch the wind here", but he felt that it was more dangerous to be alone at this time.

So in the end, he followed Jiang Xia and Amuro Toru closely, and walked in the door.

The room was very dark. After entering the room, the door with old springs creaked shut, and the surroundings were suddenly dark.

Before Jiang Xia entered the door, he caught a lucky ghost and borrowed its night vision ability.

But at this time, in order to cooperate with the two normal people next to him, he still turned on the flashlight.

There was a soft click, and the snowy beam of light shot straight ahead, and the dust in the air floated, and further forward, there was a screen blocking the door.

Jiang Xia glanced at it casually, moved the flashlight, and let it shine on the dilapidated road beside him: "Let's look for it along this side."

……

The road in the mansion is complicated. After bypassing the screen, walk along the long corridor for a while, and turn the corner to see the wide hall.

It seems to be used as a warehouse, with some discarded and moldy items piled up.

The three of them searched around, looking at all the rooms and hiding places on this floor.

However, the murderer was not found.

The missing Ksitigarbha statue was not found either.

Shancun Cao followed closely beside Jiang Xia, keeping his eyes on the whole process.

But when he was about to end his search on this floor, he suddenly heard Toru Amuro say "huh?" beside him, and the flashlight was shining upwards.

This movement made Shancun Cao subconsciously look along the aperture.You can see a group of bats hanging upside down on the beams of the house.The bats huddled together were startled, slightly agitated, and their black eyes gleamed coldly.

Shancuncao stared at the large mould-spotted group of black animals, and immediately got goosebumps all over his body, "Aw!" and let out a scream.

The swarm of bats was startled by him, and flew down with crackling waves.

Shancun Cao tightly closed his eyes, skillfully covered his head and dodged, rolled twice and moved behind the pillar, trembling for a while.

After a while, the commotion gradually subsided.

He poked his head out cautiously, and found that there were no bats flying around.Immediately he was relieved.

Followed by stunned.

It was empty all around.

"..." What about those two people? ! !
