Conan’s Corpse Picker

The staff lounge is next door to the Mirror Room.

A group of people returned to the Mirror House. Jiang Xia led them through the exit and stopped at a fork in the road.

He pointed to a side road: "This is the fork in the road where the body is. If you want to see the body, we must pass where we are now."

"Indeed." Memu Police Department was confused, "So what?"

Jiang Xia stopped talking and went to see Maya Hashimoto.

Maya Hashimoto: "..."

Thank you for your help, but I really don't want to be a detective.

...It's a pity that as an undercover agent assigned to the detective, he couldn't say this at all.

Anyway, he had already been scolded by reporters just now, and his sense of presence could not be higher. Maya Hashimoto wiped her face and started thinking.

Then he continued what Jiang Xia had just said: "The exit can be clearly seen from here, so after tourists reach this location, they usually leave directly through the exit. No one will pass by the dead end where the body is."

Curacao clapped his hands silently, looking impressed by his reasoning. The others didn't hear her make a sound, but when they saw someone clapping their hands, they all followed suit.

The reporters were also affected by the atmosphere and took two more photos of Maya Hashimoto.

The mascot in the distance moved its head, snorted, and let out a laugh that could be called schadenfreude.

Maya Hashimoto: "..."

There really isn’t a good thing in the organization!

Jiang Xia gave the new assistant enough room to develop, and then continued with a deep sense of merit and fame: "In other words, the place where the body is located is a very good hiding spot. As long as you don't encounter people who are too curious and get to the exit. For guests who don't want to leave, the fact that there is a corpse in the mirror room will not be exposed.

"The murderer must have investigated the maze route here in advance. After choosing a hiding spot, she put on a disguise and entered the mirror maze with the deceased.

"When the two met, the murderer tried to lure the deceased to the blind corner and killed him. After confirming that the deceased was dead, she rummaged through the deceased's bag and hurriedly left wearing a disguise.

"Afterwards, the murderer only had to throw away his windbreaker and top hat in a nearby public toilet, then hurried back to the Mirror Room in his original appearance and waited in line to enter."

"When she entered the field again, she did not go to the exit, but quickly came to another location."

Jiang Xia led a group of people around the maze and stopped at another dead end.

The Mumu Police Department was already dizzy: "Where is this?"

Curacao and Toru Amuro glanced across the mirror and vaguely understood something.

Jiang Xia knocked on the mirror with her finger: "Behind this mirror is where the body was before. There is a gap between the top of the mirror and the ceiling - the murderer only needs to use this gap to take the bees she just took away from the deceased's bag. Throwing the siren over will trigger the sound immediately.

"The sudden sound of the alarm sound in a closed scene, and the characteristics of the buzzer alarm being activated when it encounters an impact, will make people mistakenly think that the time of the crime is the time when the alarm sounded.

"At that time, the five people in the museum were attracted by the alarm and came to the dead end where the deceased was. From this location to the scene, it takes the most detours, plus the time to enter. The murderer should be the last one to enter the museum. Akiyuan and the lady rushed to the scene."

Qiu Yuan and the statue were hit head-on, and their whole bodies froze.

Maya Hashimoto was no less surprised than she was.

Maya Hashimoto: "..." If I remember correctly, this Miss Akimoto must have a job. The only one out of the four who didn't have a job was Makimura Akumi.

Therefore, he had always firmly believed that Akimi Makimura was either the deceased or the murderer, and he had been secretly guarding against this woman... Who knew that he had guessed wrong again.

...It’s better not to make random guesses in the future, and protect everyone equally. Fortunately, Qiu Yuan and Na had no intention of attacking innocent passers-by, otherwise they might have stumbled and been hit unfortunately.

Not only Maya Hashimoto, but also everyone else's eyes were focused on Akimoto and Na for various reasons.

Qiu Yuan and Na originally wanted to argue, but she didn't expect that she happened to be photographed by the detective assistant when she went out. Now even the windbreaker, hat and gloves were found. Thinking of the evidence that might be left on it, she could only clenched her fists tightly and gritted her teeth and said, "I was the one who killed him."

Hanawa Mika was extremely shocked: "Do you really have a grudge because of that recruitment exam..."

Akimoto and Na suddenly glanced at her: "So you reported your motive to the police?"

Hanawa Mika: "..."

She covered her lips in embarrassment and smiled: "Well, I was talking in a hurry at the time, but I happened to mention it..."

Qiu Yuan and Na sneered tiredly: "Forget it, anyway, I planned to ask you to help me take the blame before, and I also mentioned Zhu Shi's motive for the murder just now."

Akimi Makimura: "???"

Friendships that were already plastic completely withered.

However, Akimi Makimura had also exposed Hanawa Mika's motives before, and probably knew the psychological activities of her friends at that time.

So now instead of resentment, curiosity and doubt prevail. She looked at Akimoto and Na: "But didn't you pass the exam and get the offer? It's so hard to find a job, why do you have to sacrifice your future?"

"Because I can't forgive her!"

Qiu Yuan and Na clenched their fists tightly, with anger on their faces: "Her father is the president of a bank branch and has business dealings with my father. Or to put it more clearly, her father is holding the lifeblood of my father's company. .

"I have given in to her in everything since I was a child, but I don't want to give in to a life-long matter like work - so when I was interviewed by Toyo TV a while ago and Xiaofeng Yuan and I became competitors, I still performed according to my own strength. No water at all.

"It was a cruel exam in which only one person was hired out of nearly a hundred people, but I was confident that I could win based on my strength. My level of broadcasting is on par with Madoka Xiaomine, but I also know French and English. I I'm pretty sure I'll be the winner in the end.

"I was filled with the joy of getting a new job, but I didn't notice my father's ugly face when I went for the interview. At that time, he asked me to cheer up in a complicated tone, but I thought he just didn't sleep well at night. So uninspired.

"After that, I won the exam, but my father's company unfortunately went bankrupt due to a break in the capital chain. After he fell ill, I learned from his employees that this was because the bank where Madoka Xiaomine's father worked refused financing.

"Before that exam, President Xiaofeng personally approached my father and said that the condition of financing was that I should refuse the interview to make way for his daughter. But my father did not agree."
