Corpse collector in Conan

Chapter 306 A thousand listeners, a thousand foggy dogs

Tanaka Takakue sneaked into Hamano Toshino's room and killed everyone, and quickly found a bow, arrow and strong string.

She shot several arrows at the trees in the distance, and then used the interlaced threads to create a corpse-carrying route that extended from the room on the third floor to the woods.

——She was going to use this method to move Hamano Toshio's body to the snow. In this way, there will be no footprints left around the body, and it will look like it appears out of thin air. It will be a beautiful murder magic trick.

The sail-like line was quickly set up, and Tanaka Takahisa hung Hamano Toshio's body on it and wiped the sweat from his forehead with joy.

She was about to push the body away with all her strength, but at this moment, an almost pure white bird suddenly flew down on the line. She tilted her head and looked at Tanaka Takakue, and then at the body in front of her.

Tanaka Takakue didn't recognize what kind of bird it was. But looking at each other like this, for some reason, a sense of crisis suddenly flashed through her mind.

Just as she was thinking about it, she saw the bird lowering its head and starting to peck at her thread.

Tanaka Takahisa was startled, and after a moment, he suddenly raised his crossbow. However, before she fired the crossbow arrow, the strong thread suddenly made a cracking sound - it was actually broken by a palm-sized bird in such a short period of time.

The strange bird flapped its wings and quickly flew away. A corpse hanging from a rope has no such ability.

Under Tanaka Takahisa's slow gaze, it escaped from control and fell straight down.

In the living room, several people who happened to meet during the busy life were chatting.

As a figure slammed against the wall and crashed into the snow, the people in the living room were startled. After looking at each other for a moment, they quickly ran towards the window where the sound came from.

Conan was startled by the noise and struggled to wake up.

He stared blankly at the empty room for a while, then quickly remembered something and rushed downstairs.

In the hall downstairs, a group of people gathered together and were discussing what had just happened very quickly.

Conan heard the ID "Escape King" with his ears. He interrupted as if to confirm and asked: "Is the 'Escape King' you are talking about real name Xishan Wu?"

Jiang Xia looked at him from the table and nodded in agreement.

Conan's expression suddenly became solemn after receiving the confirmed news: "Just now, Xishan Wu was killed in his apartment! The murderer called himself the 'Shadow Mage' and left the announcement 'This is the first' on the computer next to the body. Words. When I wanted to come back to inform you, I found that the suspension bridge outside was destroyed..."

As he spoke, he felt that the audience's reaction was a bit strange.

The things he just described were obviously the prelude to a serial murder case, and the murderer was probably hiding near this villa.

But the audience in front of him didn't blurt out "What?!", and there was no seriousness or disbelief on their faces. Instead, there was a weird hesitation to speak.

"..." Conan stopped talking and looked at Jiang Xia subconsciously, "What's wrong?"

"We have found the murderer." The eldest Arayoshi next to him took over. He glanced at Tanaka Takahisa who was sitting in the corner and said with complicated emotions, "Well...her murder method has been revealed. A little mistake and the body fell down, just in time for us to see it."

Conan: "..."

Conan: "..."

Conan: "???"

Is there such a thing? ?

...The quality of today's murderers is really getting more and more worrying.

Having said that, why did he risk his life by leaping over the cliff?

Conan also shut himself up for a moment.

But soon, he realized another violation. Judging from Araki's answer just now and his sight, the murderer was "her".

...The murderer who calls himself 'Shadow Mage' is actually a woman? !

Conan was extremely confused. He thought that the Shadow Mage was probably the man who saved him and knocked him out just now. Otherwise, there was no way to explain why that man suddenly attacked an innocent child. And that person happens to be dressed in black, which fits the word "shadow" very well.

But now, the murderer is Tanaka Takakie, who was almost caught on the spot... Wait, so, is the murderer really her? Huang Yi only said that there were corpses falling from the top, and no one saw Tanaka Takahise killing someone on the spot... But Jiang Xia was here, and if Tanaka Takae was really innocent, he should be able to tell...

Conan was confused for a moment.

But no matter what, the people hiding in the woods are still a hidden danger. What if things turn around? After all, it would be too hasty to have the corpses fall off in the middle of the kill. He couldn't imagine anyone making such a rough plan...

Conan hesitated for a moment, then decided to speak out and provide Jiang Xia with more clues: "I just saw a man with golden eyes in the woods."

Jiang Xia appropriately expressed surprise at this "extra person" and then asked for details.

The "Doi Tucker Tree" next to him heard this topic and sat up a little straighter unnaturally.

He had met Conan before on the Suzuki family's boat. At that time, Conan once showed a smile that was very similar to Jiang Xia's, which shocked him. So Kidd went to check on this strange child afterwards. Then I was surprised to find that this might be the shrunken form of another famous detective, Kudo Shinichi.

Now it seems that Jiang Xia should be aware of this matter.

If Jiang Xia believed what Conan said, realized something was wrong, and led a bunch of police officers to search the mountain...

Kidd, who was caught between humans and monsters, pressed his temples and felt embarrassed.

Conan didn't notice the subtle tangle of the "Doi Tucker Tree". Because when several other people heard that there was a stranger in the woods, their reaction was even greater than the Doi Tucker tree.

Conan thought about it seriously, and then recounted the incident in detail starting from when he left the villa and heard the news on the radio in the car. Of course, this also included the incident where he flew across the bridge and was caught by the foggy dog ​​and knocked unconscious for no reason.

When others heard this, although they were quite confused, they were much more relieved than when they heard the news that "there was someone in the woods". He would take the initiative to catch Conan before he hit a tree, indicating that he was at least a good person willing to lend a helping hand, or maybe a villager from the nearby mountains happened to pass by.

Only Kidd, for some reason, had a picture of a fragrant meatball voluntarily crashing into a hungry traveler in his mind.

...No wonder the foggy dog ​​would catch this child. For the foggy dog, Conan's operation undoubtedly reduced the difficulty of "catching a human to satisfy his hunger" to the level of "picking up a human who actively crashes into him".

To put it in a way that is easier for humans to understand, the former is like chasing an elder for a red envelope, while the latter is like an elder taking the initiative to drop a red envelope into your pocket... Who can resist this?
