Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 1800 1799 [The Detective’s Successor]

The short-haired senior smiled and said, "This is Kiwako's seat. You can just sit there. She is snorkeling in the sea and she probably won't come over for a while."

As she said that, she looked towards the seaside and soon spotted a small figure. Matsuzaki Haru pointed over there: "Look, it's right there, waving to us."

"Oh!" Mouri Kogoro looked over there along her direction, and vaguely saw a young girl with only her head above the water. He then waved his hand and said, "Hello——!"

Fei Yingli glanced at him with disgust, couldn't help but glance over there, and then froze.

"Why do I feel..." Fei Yingli pushed up her glasses, frowned and carefully identified the figure in the sea, "She seems to be waving not to say hello to us, but to ask for help?"

The next moment, as if in response to her words, Toda Takawako, who had emerged from the sea, sank.

"?!"

Several college students were startled and stood up.

As soon as Jiang Xia stood up, he saw Toda Takawako's fiancé rushing past him and heading straight into the sea.

He silently turned his head and looked at the other two college students who were stunned: "I remember you said just now that your fiancé doesn't seem to be able to swim?"

"!" The little black-faced girl and the short-haired girl woke up from a dream, shouted "Come back, don't cause trouble!" and rushed over.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko stood up worriedly: "I'll go take a look too."

Of course, a just detective cannot turn a blind eye when something like this happens suddenly.

Jiang Xia quickly ran to the beach with them.

The three people waded into the sea for a while, and before they could reach Toda Kikako, another person suddenly emerged from the sea. The man scooped up Takawako Toda and brought her head above the water, thus avoiding the risk of drowning.

Suzuki Sonoko looked at the "passerby" who was quick to save people, and suddenly realized that this was actually a guy she knew: "Romeo?!"

Kariya Yuuto came here with the two female high school students from Sanmu High School who had a crush on him.

It's just that the three of them had had a disagreement not long ago. Although they wanted to go to the island together for various reasons, they couldn't talk at all. So halfway through, the lone ranger ran away without knowing when.

Unexpectedly, he was also playing in the nearby sea and accidentally saved someone.

"Let her go, let me do it!" The little black-faced girl who was a step behind ran closer angrily, picked up Toda Kikako, and took her to the shore.

Toda Kiwako coughed twice in his arms and opened her eyes with difficulty.

The little black-faced boy's eyes lit up, and he was about to say a few words of condolences when he heard Toda Kiwako ask: "Where is Masahiko?"

This is her fiancé's name.

"..."

Although the situation was very urgent, Suzuki Sonoko looked at the sad expression on Xiao Hei's face and couldn't help but pat the water and laugh wildly. Afraid of being discovered, she bent down and hid behind Jiang Xia.

But she finally laughed out loud. So when Jiang Xia looked up, she saw the little black face staring at this side with great anger.

Jiang Xia had no choice but to pretend not to see it and answered Toda Kikako's question for him: "Mr. Matsuzaki rushed into the sea just now to save you, but because he couldn't swim, we stopped him. Now he is still trying to walk this way. "

Toda Kiwako closed her eyes weakly: "Really, that's great..."

It seemed that the drowning man was rescued and his fiancé's performance reached a passing standard. It seemed like a happy scene for everyone.

But for some reason, Mao Lilan always felt uneasy.

Suddenly, something moved in the corner of her eye, and she felt like there was something in the sea. She took a deep breath, dived into the water, opened her eyes, and saw a sea snake wagging its tail and swimming away in a panic.

"?!!"

Mao Lilan was startled. Snakes in the sea are often more poisonous than snakes on land. She stood up straight and turned pale: "Snakes, there are snakes in the sea!"

Several college students hurriedly placed Toda Kiwako on the beach.

Matsuzaki Masahiko couldn't believe it: "But, don't sea snakes rarely bite people? Kiwako has always had good luck..."

"Maybe she scared the snake when she was drowning and struggling, or maybe..." Jiang Xia had already finished making the emergency call. He looked at Toda Kikako, who was still conscious, "You were bitten."

Toda Kiwako raised her left hand with difficulty. Jiang Xia looked down and saw two shallow holes on the back of her hand. There was already blood, which was very conspicuous on the fair skin.

Conan rushed to the restaurant, grabbed the black tea from the table, and poured it on the back of Toda Kikako's hand.

Suzuki Sonoko looked at this scene in surprise: "Kid, what are you doing? Don't make trouble."

Jiang Xia looked at the cup in Conan's hand: "Black tea contains a certain amount of tannic acid. Tannic acid can inhibit the activity of snake venom proteins, which may help in first aid."

"I see." Suzuki Sonoko praised, "You know so much!"

Conan: "..." It's obviously the same thing. I just don't make trouble when I do it, but Jiang Xia does it just because he knows a lot? Tui! Double dog.

After rinsing the wound, Conan did not squeeze for a seat next to Toda Kikako with the other college students. He withdrew.

Thinking of the tooth cavity on the back of Toda Kikako's hand, Conan frowned and whispered to several classmates: "It's really strange that it bites on the back of the hand... If it is in this position, the tooth cavity is too shallow. "

"Really?" Suzuki Sonoko scratched her head, "But I heard that sea snakes have small mouths, so it's normal for them to bite shallowly."

Jiang Xia: "It's because of my small mouth that it's difficult to open it wide enough to bite the back of my hand, so..."

Suzuki Sonoko suddenly realized: "So the snake's jaw just happened to be dislocated, and the upper part of the mouth could be opened wide, so it could bite the back of Toda Kiwako's hand? - No wonder the sea snake, which rarely attacks humans, bites people suddenly. A dislocated jaw is really annoying, and I imagine it’s the same with snakes!”

Mao Lilan was successfully led astray by her, and followed this train of thought: "By the way, I remember that when the snake swam away, it hurriedly spit out some white clay-like things from its mouth. Those things were very fast. It just melted into the sea and disappeared. I didn't see clearly what it was, but I guess it was something like a soft coral shell. The sea snake accidentally bit it and broke its jaw. When it was struggling, it was killed by a doorkeeper passing by. Tamiwako was frightened, so she bit her hard, but because the coral stuck in her mouth had not been spit out, the sea snake could not bite too deeply, and in the end only two shallow tooth holes were left."

The logic seemed to flow.

The two female high school students looked at each other and gave each other a high-five, their eyes filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Conan: "..." She is indeed the daughter of Kogoro Mori.

Jiang Xia's eyes drifted to the side and suddenly noticed something. He pointed: "The ambulance is coming."
