Conan’s Corpse Picker

Toru Amuro gets angry when he thinks about the scene where those cunning criminals invited Jiang Xia as a guest and then caused a car accident nearby so that Jiang Xia stopped reasoning and turned into an alibi tool.

"..." If it were an ordinary report, I could still find a way to suppress it. But now it’s live broadcast…

There's no point in thinking about it.

Amuro cleared her throat and found that Jiang Xia still ignored him. He had no choice but to speed up the process of solving the case, planning to finish the matter as soon as possible and send the reporter away.

"As for the evidence, there are traces of being stepped on on the window sill of the cafe's restroom. In addition, there is blood on the window frame." Toru Amuro looked at President Ohara, "During the time when you went to the restroom, you had blood on your hands. Injured. It should have been accidentally scratched when you were playing with the wire. In other words, there are traces on the wire, on my car, on the window sill of the bathroom... and maybe in your own car. Your blood stains."

"..."

thump--

The evidence is overwhelming.

As early as when Jiang Xia introduced him to others, President Ohara felt that this little detective was strange and something was not good.

Unexpectedly, now, the bad premonition has come true.

"...Yes, I killed the man, but he was seeking death on his own!"

The sadness on President Ohara's face finally receded and turned into overwhelming anger: "That guy didn't care at all about my kindness to support him. He just jumped ship when he said he wanted to! Oh, since he wants to leave so much, then I will give him a ride! And he Even if he dies, our company can still receive an insurance payment and compensation.”

Toru Amuro was not interested in the reasons for these crimes, nor did he want to appreciate President Ohara's complicated expression. He just wanted to leave the scene as soon as possible.

...As for the transcript, the worst case scenario is that we hold it off for now, since the evidence is enough anyway.

Toru Amuro slipped away silently.

Before leaving, he accidentally looked over to Okiya Subaru and was startled: "..." This man's face was so ugly and strange.

Toru Amuro couldn't help but review the situation just now in his mind, and didn't think there was anything wrong... huh? Wait, is it because of the murderer's words of "job hopping"?

"..." Toru Amuro looked at Subaru Okiya thoughtfully.

—— Such a big reaction to this kind of murderous motive. Is it possible that Subaru Okiya really has a problem with Usa and plans to change jobs?

In this case, it seems that there may be some contact depending on the situation...but we cannot rule out the possibility that this person is acting together with Uzo. In short, we need to continue to observe.

Amuro Toru secretly noted this in his mind and left quickly.

…

Okiya Subaru had been spoken to by "Usa" in the void so many times. Although he was still frightened at this time, when he heard President Ohara say those words, he felt "unsurprisingly" in his heart.

In fact, as early as just now, when he heard President Ohara and his colleagues talking about "resigning" in the coffee shop, he had a vague premonition.

At this time, after being glanced at by Amuro Toru, Okiya Subaru vaguely noticed something and looked back.

I saw Toru Amuro hailing a car at the corner of the street and driving away gracefully. It looked like they didn't even bother to deal with the truck, and seemed to be planning on letting the police tow it away for investigation.

"...?" Subaru Okiya looked at the smoke rising from the back of the taxi, and gradually felt that Toru Amuro's attitude was also very wrong - Jiang Xia kept trying to solve the case today, why didn't Amuro's boss suspect him?

Could it be... Could it be that Toru Amuro actually knew the connection between Jiangxia and Uzuo, so he deliberately left Jiangxia in the detective agency to observe Uzuo's movements, or did he have other inside stories?

As he thought about it, Subaru Okiya couldn't help but raise his hand and press his forehead: The interpersonal relationships within the organization are so complicated. I really don’t fit in here…

As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, Uzo's face instinctively appeared in his mind, accompanied by a smiling "You want to resign?"

"!" Subaru Okiya shivered silently and shook his head hastily, trying to shake all possible bloody scenes out of his mind.

"..." Calm down and think carefully: I don't want to resign - completely different from those unlucky murderers and dead people, "Okiya Subaru" will not leave, and even the future "Okiya Subaru" will be even worse capable.

In other words, this is not a resignation, this is just an upgrade...

Okiya Subaru tried hard to convince himself that this was the case - and only in this way could it be possible to deceive Uzo...or at least let Uzo know later.

…

After the case was over, Subaru Okiya remembered that Usa might be secretly observing nearby, and lowered his head, showing a look of deep introspection.

Next to him, Jiang Xia looked at him strangely: Why does it feel like Subaru Okiya is always startled today, and the same case happened at noon... Especially now, although his expression doesn't change much, he subtly gives people a sense of excitement. The feeling of having regretted something and reflecting on it.

"..." Jiang Xia originally thought that Subaru Okiya felt guilty, perhaps because a few nights ago, Akai Shuichi used his identity as "Subaru Okiya" to inform Bourbon. So today, Subaru Okiya took it upon himself to treat the murder caused by the incident as "Uzo" looking for trouble, just like vodka.

But now, Jiang Xia slowly realized that in comparison - among the three cases, Subaru Okiya's reaction was greater when the murderer's motive was revealed than when the crime was committed.

By the way, when President Ohara talked about the motive for the crime, Subaru Okiya didn't seem that scared. But thinking about it carefully, when President Ohara's table came into the coffee shop and the topic of "resignation" came up, Subaru Okiya's movements did make a slight tremor.

Jiang Xia: "..." Looking back, the motives of the three cases actually have one thing in common.

--Resign.

……Um?

Okiya Subaru couldn't be serious about running away.

Jiangxia: "..." Indeed, according to the normal trajectory, Akai Shuichi will disguise himself as "Okiya Subaru" in the future and sneak into Mihua Town silently... But that should be after Akai Shuichi's "death".

But now, things have changed a lot. If Shuichi Akai wants to make an early substitution, it is not impossible.

Is it now time for multiple-choice questions again?

Jiang Xia was a little torn: Akai Shuichi's murderous taste was rare, but Okiya Subaru's work physique was gradually waking up, and both of his subordinates were good.

...In this case, why can't a mature adult choose to have them all?

Jiang Xia glanced at Okiya Subaru with his peripheral vision, thoughtfully.

…

The case was solved, and the police and reporters evacuated one after another.

Okiya Subaru originally wanted to politely leave. But when he took a step, his feet suddenly stumbled.

——The dark-cloud-stepping-snow cat that had just slipped away to nowhere appeared silently at this moment, raising its paws to hook his trousers. At the same time, the cat turned its head and said "meow~" to Maorilan, as if it wanted to bring Okiya Subaru to join him. The appearance of the team.

Okiya Subaru: "...?!" Isn't it over yet? ! I really don’t want to resign!
