Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 771 I will do it

After taking care of her own affairs, that night, Jiang Xia put on the cat vest again and drove the cat to the coffee shop.

I saw Okiya Subaru still in the corner of the second floor of the coffee shop, with a laptop in front of him, carefully managing time, and switching back and forth between thesis work.

In the middle of the night, after the lights in Watanuki's house were turned off, Okiya Subaru did not leave immediately. He continued to stare for a while, and found that no one came out, and there was no change, so he yawned, carefully kept the paper, and went back to previously booked hotel.

Jiang Xia: "..."

When we first met, Okiya Subaru seemed to have the potential to be a water monster, why did he suddenly become so dedicated...

He lay on the wall, resting his chin with his cat's paw in boredom, watching Okiya Subaru return to the hotel.

Suddenly, I felt that maybe I was a good boss by accident—he could make the paddler change his past and work hard.

……

The next day, Jiang Xia took the time to drive the cat over again.

Then I found that before the end of the mission, Okiya Subaru seemed to want to take root in this area, and had no intention of leaving at all.

If you keep staring at it, your efficiency may be very low.

Jiang Xia then took advantage of Okiya Subaru's distraction, threw a transmitter on him, then returned to the main body, and started to work on his own affairs.

……

On the second day after Okiya Subaru received the "task teaching", after yesterday's accumulation, he already had a certain understanding of the surrounding terrain and general situation.

He recalled Wu Zuo's "teaching" process yesterday, and found that although the skill of "planning cases" was very powerful, he did have a feeling of "sudden realization", "so that's how it is", and "I seem to be able to do it too" when listening to it.

But now, as soon as Uzo left, Okiya Subaru thought about it again, and found a mess, and he couldn't understand how the other party did it.

"..." After realizing this serious problem, he fell into deep thought for a while.

At the same time, I couldn't help thinking, after this teaching task, what if Uzo let himself plan the next time, or the next time?
... After thinking about it, I don't have any ideas, I just feel a headache.

Okiya Subaru sighed, and had no choice but to put this bleak future aside for the time being—it was useless to think about it, and by then, he might have already run away.Compared with this uncertain future, the most important thing now is indeed the task at hand.

Okiya Subaru thought, although he still couldn't grasp the essence of "manipulating the case".

But just guiding others to discover the corpse in the field, and then proving that the corpse is related to the target Watanuki Yoshiichi, the task should be completed-of course, he did not forget Uzo's warning, knowing that in the process, he must not be People got hold of it.

So on this day, Okiya Subaru took many measures such as "building roadblocks on other roads so that others can only pass by the burial site", "throwing a conspicuously colored leaflet near the burial site from a dead corner that no one sees, Attract people to accidentally discover dead bodies while 'cleaning up the trash'".

……

At the end of the day, the body was still buried so well that no one noticed it at all.

Okiya Subaru: "..."

... Until then, he really realized the complexity of the matter.

The burial site, after all, is on a piece of private land, and normal people would never enter it.

Even if it goes in, it won't dig around in the ground near the corpse.

……

Time passed in a blink of an eye, and soon came the third day, Saturday.

There are only two days left before the deadline for the task - the board of directors.

With a pair of weak dark circles under his eyes, Okiya Subaru learned from the pain and came up with a new plan-since ordinary people wouldn't do that kind of thing, the only thing he could do was... find some brats to invade private land and dig the soil .

Of course, Okiya Subaru thought that in order to avoid the psychological shadow left by the children, when the corpse was about to be dug up, he would hug the tool child away in advance and dig the rest by himself, trying not to hurt their young and fragile hearts.

……

While Okiya Subaru was draped in the dim light of the early morning, he was thinking hard and conceiving a new plan.

Jiang Xia took a leisurely sleep and got up slowly.

After breakfast at the neighbor's house next door, he came to the detective agency, ready to sort out the commissions piled up in the mailbox recently, and check to see if the boss was there and if there were any new cases.

It's a pity that Toru Amuro still doesn't haunt the office.

However, when packing away the newspapers, the doorbell rang suddenly.

Jiang Xia was startled, turned to look at the door, and found that the person who came was a fierce-looking man.

The client with a villainous face has a very straightforward personality, and he pushed the door straight in after ringing the doorbell.

Seeing Jiang Xia coming up to him, he looked at the detective and went straight to the point: "I want you to help me find my sister."

"..." Jiang Xia hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

... Coincidentally, the client found him here.

He pointed to the sofa in the living room and motioned the guests to sit down: "Please wait a moment."

Then go get the entrustment form and make tea for the guests by the way.

When the water boiled, Jiang Xia looked at the steaming pot and sighed faintly:

I don't know if it's an illusion, but since the last time we went out together, the boss hasn't come to the detective agency very often.

In the past, Toru Amuro would often drop in to take a look when passing by.If he encounters a guest, he will instinctively help out with the miscellaneous reception.

but now……

Without a skilled worker, Jiang Xia can only do chores by himself.

By the time the client filled out the registration form, the tea had already been brewed.

Jiang Xia brings tea and snacks.While putting down the tray, he himself sat across from the client, picked up the registration form, and glanced at it quickly.

The fierce-looking client leaned on the sofa, calming down a little.

He opened his mouth to add what was not written on the form:

"A month ago, my younger sister Koda Sanae suddenly disappeared.

"—We are not natives of Tokyo, but were born in Saku City, Nagano Prefecture. Six years ago, Sanae went to Beijing with a few graduates of the same period and found a good job at Toto Securities. She is A very good and capable person...

Speaking of this, Koda Masao realized that he was digressing, he pressed his forehead wearily, and turned back to business:
"But on the night of the 8th of last month, Sanae suddenly disappeared.

"It took two days for me to hear about this incident. After that, I booked a ticket to Tokyo overnight, rushed to her company, asked her colleagues, and wanted to find out her whereabouts.

"The colleague said that at 8 o'clock that night, Sanae left the company after get off work. Before leaving, she said that she was going to meet a client-that was the last time those colleagues saw Sanae.

"And the 'client' they're talking about Sanae meeting—"

With a trace of irrepressible anger and a bit of murderous intent that surprised Jiang Xia, Masao Koda took out a photo from his bag and slapped it on the table:

"That's the guy, Watanuki Yoshiichi!"
