Conan’s Corpse Picker

Maya Hashimoto continued: "After entering the Mask Hall, we suddenly heard screams and some chaotic noises. Then the door to the west also opened, and everyone rushed over one after another."

Mumu Police Department listened and took notes, but he always felt that he had missed something. After a while, he remembered and looked at the rock singer: "You also live on their side of Jiangxia, right? Why didn't you act with them?"

The rock singer sighed: "Other guests were staying on the second floor, and my room was on the first floor. I had no idea what happened upstairs. Later, I heard that they were looking for the maid next door, so I got up to follow them. Let’s look at the situation.”

Others also quickly clarified. The photographer said: "I was sleeping at the time. Later, I heard the commotion outside, so I went out to take a look. I happened to see our maid here going to open the mask hall, so I followed her. .”

  Baseball player: “Me too!”

 Diviner: "Me too."

Torimaru Naoko remembered that there was a string of tails following behind her, and nodded, confirming that this was indeed the case.

Everyone’s itinerary has been told whether it’s true or false, except for one person.

The Mumu Police Department looked at the secretary, his eyes became sharp: "What about you? You didn't seem to show up last night?"

The secretary was frightened: "I drank too much last night, so I was too asleep and didn't hear anything - I'm innocent!"

 “Hmm…” The police officer Mumu narrowed his eyes at her suspiciously.

The secretary also knew that her situation was critical. She gritted her teeth and decisively resorted to a move to divert trouble. She suddenly looked at Jiang Xia: "Mrs. Su Fang had a secret meeting with Mr. Jiang Xia last night!"

Maya Hashimoto: "?!" You don't want to say that Jiang Xia is the murderer, do you?

Fortunately, the secretary changed the topic: "I remember that after the dinner, Mrs. Su Fang was very concerned about a guest. Not long after that, she asked the maid to invite Jiang Xia - there must be something wrong with that guest, maybe he is the murderer!"

The Mumu Police Department was shocked and looked at Jiang Xia: "Is there such a thing?"

Jiang Xia nodded. Although detectives have confidentiality principles, now that even the client is dead, there is no need to care about these details: "Mrs. Su Fang wants me to investigate Mr. Photographer-Mr. Katagiri's wife seems to have died 20 years ago. He died in a traffic accident, and Mrs. Su Fang is very concerned about this matter."

The photographer was startled and asked in surprise: "Investigating my wife's matter, why?"

 Jiang Xia: “I’m also curious, do you have any clue?”

ˆThe photographer hesitated and said, "Of course not!"

Jiang Xia began to expand the battlefield and looked at the rock singer: "I remember that 20 years ago, something happened to your family?"

No one has forgotten what was just mentioned at yesterday's dinner - the rock singer's mother, Mrs. Su Fang's old friend, was imprisoned 20 years ago for hitting someone with a car and died not long after.

 One person was hit and killed, and the other was hit and killed, both 20 years ago.

 It’s somewhat of a coincidence.

　　Mu Mu Police Department suddenly had an idea: "Are these the same thing?"

 The photographer's expression changed slightly.

After a moment of stalemate, he sighed: "Forget it, you can find out sooner or later anyway, so I'll just tell you straight away - my wife was killed by Mr. Lan Chuan's mother."

The rocker looked shocked. Twenty years ago, he was six years old and should have been a primary school student who knew nothing.

The photographer in his 40s found that other people were looking at him, and he suddenly recovered from the sad past: "No matter what happened 20 years ago, it has nothing to do with what is happening today! - By the way, Su Fang My wife died so tragically, and a lot of liquid must have been sprayed on the murderer. That person had to change his clothes before he could appear in front of us, and I remember that the only person who didn't show up at that time was the secretary!" Unexpectedly, the secretary was surrounded by suspicions Back again, she said in horror: "...I, I really didn't kill anyone!"

While a group of people were playing football with each other, Jiang Xia silently retreated to the side of the two maids. He looked at Naoko Tormaru and asked in a low voice: "I remember there was another door on the wall on the side of the crime scene. What does the room behind that door look like and where does it lead to?"

Torimaru Naoko rolled her eyes and lowered her voice: "I'll take you to see it."

 …Finally let her find a chance to be alone!

While Maya Hashimoto was still staring at the various suspects, guarding against the sudden kicking of the suspect ball on himself, Naoko Tormaru took Jiang Xia out in a good mood.

After taking two steps, she suddenly felt something was wrong - someone was following behind her.

 …That hateful minion with complicated beliefs is still haunting.

Torimaru Naoko couldn't help but glanced back with an angry look in her eyes.

Then I discovered that it was Masumi Takamori who was following him step by step.

Torimaru Naoko looked at this pig teammate: "..."

The corners of her eyes twitched: "Go back and wait in case the police have anything else to do."

Takamori Masumi said "oh" and turned around happily: she didn't want to follow Jiang Xia, but there were too many police here, so she was a little nervous, so she subconsciously followed Naoko Tormaru.

Now that she had come to her senses, she had the self-consciousness of an outlaw and immediately backed away from Jiang Xia.

Torimaru Naoko sighed silently and led Jiangxia upstairs. Although there were many policemen in the house, with Jiangxia there, no one stopped them from wandering around, and the whole journey was smooth.

At the second floor, there were fewer people. Naoko Toriyama took out the detector from her fluffy skirt and quickly operated it.

 Confirming that there were no eavesdropping devices around, she quickly pulled Jiang Xia in when passing the corner: "I have something to tell you."

Torimaru Naoko was no longer what she was before. She was about to confess her identity, but Jiang Xia looked at her and actually spoke first: "It seems that you are doing well here."

 Torimaru Naoko: “?!”

She, she clearly changed her gait and posture deliberately, her voice was perfectly disguised, and she also tried hard to remind Takamori that Masumi had done the same thing... But Jiang Xia actually recognized her so quickly? Obviously they have not appeared in front of Jiang Xia for too long!

Torimaru Naoko was slightly shocked, and then she felt a surge of relief in her heart: Such a reliable person was actually her teammate. This is really... wonderful!

I thought it would take a little more time to explain and find a way to make Jiang Xia believe and understand the current situation, but now it seems that these can be omitted.

This greatly soothes the heart of Naoko Toriyama who has been hurt by her pig teammates during this period.

—It would be great if all my teammates were people like Jiang Xia.

 For a moment, a loyal but not-so-loyal subordinate expressed the same emotion as one of her colleagues.
