Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 776 The Merciful Uzo

Conan strained his ears to eavesdrop, tugged at Jiang Xia, and asked in a low voice, "Have you received the commission?"

Hui Yuanai didn't know when she put on her hood, like a cautious red mushroom, she came over quietly.

She was not interested in the entrustment, but Haibara Ai knew more than Conan—she was worried that this was another mission of the organization.If that was the case, she figured she'd better get out of the way so as not to run into any Organizational acquaintances who might be passing by.

Jiang Xia looked at Conan, then nonchalantly rua'd Hui Yuan Ai's fluffy red hood a few times, to avenge Hui Yuan Ai's bad words about him to his cat vest the morning before yesterday.

After rubbing the static electricity, he withdrew his hand and said seriously: "It's a troublesome commission..."

……

Jiang Xia briefly talked about what happened before.

After speaking, he looked up, and found that Masao Koda and Subaru Okiya who were beside him had ended their conversation at some point.

At this time, Koda Masao was ringing the doorbell over and over again, urging Watanuki Yoshiichi to go out.

Okiya Subaru was free, approached and talked to Jiang Xia, with a gentle expression: "You like children too."

In the eyes of Okiya Subaru, Jiang Xia is undoubtedly a golden channel leading to "mission completion", and his friendliness is very real.

In addition, this sentence is also a patch for Okiya Subaru to abduct the child himself, so as not to be seen by this keen detective.

——Although he would not be arrested by the police as long as he was not caught for the exact violation of the law, what if Uzo was particularly strict?
Okiya Subaru didn't dare to bet on Uzo's benevolent heart, so he could only try his best to do everything to the best, and he didn't dare to paddle at all, for fear that he would poke Uzo's minefield with his pole when paddling... and then Then I can conceive the suicide note again.

……

Jiang Xia nodded when he heard him talking, and her attitude was also very friendly: "They are all very smart kids." As he spoke, he glanced at the young detective team who shrank behind the corner in the distance, and then glanced at Conan, and pressed the button. Conscience, "They are also very sensible."

After being stared at by him, the three heads peeking around the corner shrank back.

Okiya Subaru gave a "hmm" and began to try to lead the topic to the "corpse": "However, telling these things to children will easily cause them a psychological shadow."

"Generally speaking, that's right." Jiang Xia patted Conan's head: "But he is... cough, the distant brother of my classmate. My classmate is a detective. I don't shy away from these things. He always takes this kid with him. Going to the murder scene, so he's getting used to it—sometimes, the child's perspective can also reveal some precious clues."

Okiya Subaru: "..." Jiang Xia's classmate + detective...

A person quickly appeared in his mind - Kudo Shinichi.

In the past, Okiya Subaru was not very interested in detectives and murder cases.

But ever since his roommate who was on a seven-boat boat walked out vertically and was carried to the funeral parlor horizontally, Okiya Subaru couldn't help ordering newspapers in this area, and occasionally browsed for relevant information.

Therefore, he also has a good understanding of these high school student detectives in the same area, and he naturally remembers the saying "Kudo Shinichi's soul possessed a classmate" that was once hyped up by the media.

Thinking of this, Okiya Subaru realized that Kudo Shinichi was dead, and judging from what Jiang Xia said just now, the two had a good relationship.

So he politely added: "My condolences."

Jiang Xia's eyes drifted to the sky, nodded, and sighed, as if mourning for a friend who went to heaven.

Okiya Subaru also sighed in his heart: Grief and nostalgia, such a humanized young man looks like a real person.

In comparison, Wu Zuo doesn't look a few years older than Jiang Xia, the difference is almost like a human being and a devil...

Okiya Subaru stood next to Jiang Xia, feeling the breath of a normal young man, so as to gradually erase the psychological shadow Uzo left on him.

Beside, Conan was worried that Jiang Xia's conscience was too strong, he didn't want to lie, and accidentally revealed the fact that "Kudo Shinichi is still alive", which attracted the attention of the black organization.

But now it seems that things have passed smoothly——Jiang Xia looked up at the sky just now, her eyes fluttering, this kind of evasive appearance of being forced to lie, it just fits the key word "escape", which can be interpreted as "escape from the reality of a friend's death" .

In short, after some simple greetings, all three of them felt that the communication was pleasant.

Only Hui Yuanai, looking at Jiang Xia's jerky lie, always felt that something was wrong.

...However, since Jiang Xia didn't give any reminder, then this incident should have nothing to do with the organization.She hesitated to take off the hood, and then silently smoothed her messy hair.

……

Okiya Subaru succeeded in talking, and was about to follow Jiang Xia's avoidance of "friend's death" and shift the topic to the "corpse" Koda Masao was looking for.

But before he could speak, a tense voice came from beside him.

——Masao Koda was staring at the courtyard through the iron gate.

Seeing Yoshikazu Watanuki finally walk out of the small door on the side of the house, Masao Koda gritted his teeth and reminded the temporary accomplices around him: "He has come out."

Okiya Subaru was stunned, he could only temporarily stop his plan to continue talking to Jiang Xia, he looked through the iron gate and looked into the courtyard of the villa.

A burly old man with gray hair came out with a bad expression on his face.

Koda Masao glared at him as he approached - in the eyes of Koda Masao, Watanuki Yoshiichi must be his sister-killing enemy.

……

Mian Guanyi looked at the group of people outside through the fence gate, and frowned.

As he walked, he seemed to put his hand into his pocket naturally, and put the baseball in his hand into his pocket.

Just now, Yoshiichi Mianguan has been staying on the second floor of the villa, spying on the group of children playing ball on the construction site.

Therefore, I also saw the scene of the baseball flying into my yard.

He came out so slowly because it took him a while to find the ball in the yard after hearing the doorbell.

—— Yoshiichi Watanuki intends to use this baseball to negotiate with the children, telling them to roll away and stay away from this area.

As for the adult who was messing around with the child...it's even easier, just tell him that if he breaks into the construction site again, he will call the police, and he will be able to drive away these annoying guys.

Unexpectedly, when they found the ball and were about to come out to negotiate, there were two more people outside the courtyard.

Yoshishi Watanuki looked carefully for a moment, and his eyes quickly fell on Masao Koda.He recognized the man who had been pestering him for more than a month, showing a vigilant and disgusted expression.

Watanuki Yoshiichi didn't mention baseball anymore, he clenched his fists tightly, walked to the door aggressively, and looked at Masao Koda: "I've said it many times, that useless woman never came to my place! You persecuted delusional Peeping Tom, stay away from my house!"
