Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 413 Night Visit to Asai Chengji

Vodka watched silently as his gin brother rented a new boat; when the store was out of sight, he quickly checked the boat with instruments; checked the satellite phone; rented two extra rubber boats and put them on the boat...then calmed down got on the boat.

  Vodka followed in a hurry.

   After some silent and hasty careful maneuvering, the ship finally set off.

  …

   After signing a bunch of ghosts, Jiang Xia temporarily returned to calm.

  He found the boat prepared by the police station on the island at the pier, and together with the police, took the boat to Moon Shadow Island.

   On the deck, the sea breeze was quite strong.

Jiang Xia wrapped his scarf tightly and looked towards Yueying Island. He saw the vague outline of the island, and the star on the edge of the island, which was getting bigger and bigger as the boat approached. The community activity center on fire was a wooden building. Bungalows are relatively flammable and are built by the sea, making them very conspicuous.

   Although according to the news he heard at the police station just now, the hatred he wanted to pick up at this time was 80% linked to Gin, so it was difficult to eliminate their obsession and pick up the ghost.

   But the so-called come has come... a trip to the island, there should be other gains.

  ——For example, the three drug dealers who were silenced must have done things like killing others before.

As far as Jiang Xia knows, at least twelve years ago, the drug dealers burned their accomplices who wanted to wash their hands in a golden pot, Keiji Aso, and Keiji Aso's wife and daughter... Now the drug dealers died suddenly and tragically. When the thought dissipates, it will naturally become a wild shikigami that is easy to pick.

   In addition, the anonymous person who sent the invitation letter—that is, the son of Keiji Aso, an accomplice who was silenced 12 years ago, is true. After he learned the truth about the death of his family, he always wanted to kill the drug dealer to avenge his family.

   And now, since the drug dealer is dead, the real murderous aura of Asagi should have been completely dropped, and you can go and pick it up on the way.

  …

   Soon, the ship docked at Moon Shadow Island.

  The firefighting department of the island also arrived with usable equipment.

   A group of people followed the firelight and rushed to the burning community activity center.

  The firefighters and several islanders on the island are gathering next to the community activity center at this time and are constantly busy.

   According to them, there was an explosion here, and then it started to burn. Perhaps because the entire house was made of wood, the flames rose rapidly.

   When the police and firefighters were putting out the fire, Jiang Xia watched nearby.

   Then he stopped outside the cordon and let the ghosts who were not afraid of fire floated into the burning house for a spin.

   At the same time, he temporarily moved his vision to the ghost, and used the ghost's perspective to observe the fire scene up close.

  Through the charred wooden wall, you can see the smoke billowing from the community center and a sea of ​​fire. The visibility was extremely low, and the ghosts followed the shikigami's breath all the way to the main hall.

   I saw several people lying on the floor who had long since died. At this time, they were curling up and slowly turning into charred corpses.

There are more than three people   . In addition to the target drug dealers, there are also a few more unfamiliar faces... Probably the sudden increase of silence targets during the mission. For organizations, this is a common occurrence...

   Jiang Xia didn't look any further, and instead let the ghost look around, his eyes swept across the ground.

   On the floor of the hall, you can see some shikigami, they are slowly creeping around under the cover of fire and smoke.

   These shikigami were transformed from people killed by drug dealers during their lifetime.

   At this time, the enemy died suddenly, and a group of shikigami obsessions ended, and they had no goal for the time being, so they slowly drifted away according to their instincts, preparing to slowly dissipate after years.

  …or be picked up by a passing enthusiastic psychic matchmaker.

   Jiang Xia quickly divided the work between the ghosts, and one ghost was responsible for picking one direction.

   Send one more on the side by the sea.

   Make sure to catch all the shikigami crawling around before the shikigami climbs far away.

  …

   After a while, the fire was brought under control with the help of the fireboats sent from the island.

The outer walls of the    community activity center have been burnt to pieces, and several charred corpses have been dragged out from the lingering smoke of the fire.

  While the police and firefighters were busy, Jiang Xia took a few steps back, then turned around and silently turned into a street.

   There are not many residents on Moon Shadow Island, and the night is already deep. After walking down the street for a long time, there are no people around.

  Jiang Xia stretched out his hand towards the ghosts who came back holding the shikigami.

   Then he liked to mention thirteen different old and new shikigami - two of them were very talented, they crawl relatively fast, and they had already wriggled into the sea before he came. Then he was plunged into the bottom of the sea by a thrifty mermaid and was salvaged.

   Put away the new shikigami, Jiang Xia spread out the fast-moving ghosts, and let them walk around the island map covering the map, looking for any shikigami or ghosts that slipped through the net.

   He identified the direction himself and walked towards the dock where he was docked when he came.

   But Jiang Xia did not go to the boat, but turned to the right halfway.

   He walked half a block and came to a two-story apartment with wooden spires near the coast.

   Just now, Jiang Xia had just set foot on Yueying Island. On the way from the pier to the community activity center, the ghosts were nearby and sensed a strong murderous aura.

   Although it's too far away, I don't know the taste of murderousness, but it should be a rather high-end type.

   Considering that the murderous aura does not crawl around like the shikigami, when he passed by here just now, Jiang Xia just tilted his head to glance at the source of the murderous aura and remembered its location.

   And now, the shikigami has been put away, and it's time to pick up the murderous aura...

  …

   Jiang Xia followed the smell of murder, all the way to the second floor of the apartment, stopped in front of a room with the "Shallow" house sign, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

   Judging from the house number, this is the son of Keiji Aso, who was killed by drug dealers for washing his hands in a golden pot. After his family died, Asao was adopted by others and changed his surname to "Asai".

After a few    dong dongs, across the door, a rapid and small noise could be heard in the room - the people inside seemed to be hurriedly packing up.

   After nearly a minute, the door was gently pulled open a crack.

   Jiang Xia turned his eyes and saw a neatly dressed, slender young woman.

   "Woman" looked out carefully through the crack of the door. When her gaze fell on Jiang Xia's face, "she"'s expression changed slightly.

After a while, Naruto Asai's complex expression settled into a smile, and a slightly neutral female voice sounded, and she said softly: "Hello, what's the matter? I feel like you are very polite, um... Are you a tourist from outside? "

   Jiang Xia glanced at the murderous aura lingering on the "woman" and sniffed lightly.

   Then reflexively held his breath.

  ...It turned out to be the murderous smell of disinfectant? ?

  Although it is also high-end murderous, but as a food, the taste is a bit exciting...
