Corpse collector in Conan
Chapter 2700 2704 [Hell Puppet Master]
"Threat letter?" The young detective seemed very interested in this topic. Jiang Xia looked at Officer Sato's bag, "Can I see it?"
"This..." Sato Miwako was a little embarrassed. She reached into the bag and touched it, then took out a wooden box and placed it on the table.
It was an ancient square box with a few words engraved on the box: [Threat letter inside. ]
"Why did you bring the box with you?" Suzuki Sonoko poked the wooden box, a little puzzled, "Could it be that the threat letter is actually a very thick stack? This criminal is too idle."
Officer Takagi shook his head: "This is a box with a mechanism. Unfortunately, we haven't found a way to open it yet."
Jiang Xia picked up the box and turned it over to take a look.
Next to him, Hashimoto Maya heard "unopened box with a mechanism", her ears moved, and she silently moved back.
Hashimoto Maya: "..." Jiang Xia was too bold. What if this thing popped out a handful of poison mist or some poison needles after it was opened? Wouldn't it be the target if it was so close? The kind detective really doesn't understand the evil of human nature...
Officer Takagi: "One of our colleagues is from Hakone. He said this kind of box is a specialty there. It is a box with a mechanism that can never be opened without following a specific order. Many people will make mistakes if they follow the instructions step by step. There is no instruction on this box at all... Alas, we wanted to try to saw it open, but after checking it, our colleagues in the forensic department said that it didn't seem to contain letter paper. If we saw it off hastily, it might damage the items inside and anger the threatening person who sent the letter."
Officer Sato: "So we had to take this box first and follow the package ticket that came with the box to see the situation..."
"Click"
The subtle sound of the mechanism made Sato Miwako's voice suddenly pause. She was stunned for two seconds, and when she looked over in shock, she saw that the lid of the "box that can never be opened" loosened and slid open a gap in Jiang Xia's hand.
Conan, who was standing on tiptoe and looking around: "..."
You're driving too fast! Isn't the normal order that he should open it for a minute but can't open it, so he shows it to me, and then everyone works together to open it?
"Damn it, if he hadn't been concerned about Hashimoto Maya next to him, he would have rushed over to study the mechanism box. Now he missed an interesting mechanism... It's all because of that suspicious guy.
Conan silently made a note of Hashimoto Maya in his heart.
Officer Takagi: "..."
...So you can open the mechanism? If you had told us earlier, we would have found you a long time ago!!
Smart people can really do anything. Thinking about this box that was opened obediently not long after it came into Jiang Xia's hands, and then thinking about it all night last night...Officer Takagi sighed sadly.
But soon, curiosity overwhelmed everything: "Look at what's inside! "
Jiang Xia nodded and continued to push the lid of the box, which had already slid open a gap, but the lid got stuck in the middle and could not be pushed open.
Hashimoto Maya saw this and became more alert, and retreated almost to the window.
Conan was also curiously staring at the box, but suddenly noticed the movement of this suspicious person.
He looked at Hashimoto Maya warily, and soon understood from his body movements that this person was wary of the box.
Discovering this, Conan's heart skipped a beat and he blurted out "Be careful!".
However, at this time, Jiang Xia had already shaken the box a few times with great skill, and opened the box with a bang.
Conan: "! ! "
He took off his coat and jumped towards the box cautiously, trying to cover the strange thing first. But when he jumped up, he found that there was neither poison mist nor poison needles in the box... Looking left and right, it seemed to be just an ordinary wooden box.
Mouri Ran found something approaching, and grabbed the restless child in the air with her backhand: "Don't make trouble, Jiang Xia is doing serious work."
Conan: "..."
The corner of his eye twitched slightly, and he looked down, just in time to see Jiang Xia take off the lid of the box and take something out of the box.
-It was a palm-sized marionette. The puppet's limbs were connected by silk strings, with a blank expression, and wearing orange and yellow clothes.
At first glance, it was just an ordinary children's toy, but when Jiang Xia picked it up with the joystick, Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but let out a "Huh! "With a sound of ", the puppet's limbs were bent backwards, and the entire torso was twisted into a strange shape, as if someone had deliberately broken it. When it was suspended in the air, it looked like a dried corpse.
Jiang Xia took the puppet and turned it around, and put it on the small table on the side of Hashimoto Maya.
When the new kid turned himself into a cake stuck on the car window, Jiang Xia looked at the bottom of the box and said to the two policemen like a detective concentrating on solving a case: "There are a few lines of words engraved here."
"!" Officer Sato said solemnly, "Let me see. "
After taking the wooden box from Jiang Xia, her expression became more serious after reading it.
It was written there:
[I cast a spell on the train passing through the Hokkaido Shikigatake Field
--the Hell Puppet Master, who is famous for his magic of death and terror]
"Death and terror..." Officer Takagi was a little scared at first, and then he couldn't help muttering, "With so many adjectives, no wonder they have to write them in separate lines--the self-introduction of this 'Hell Puppet Master' is actually longer than the threatening content he left behind."
Jiang Xia poked the puppet next to him: "It seems that his self-introduction may also be part of this threatening letter. "
Officer Sato took a picture of the words and sent them to the Metropolitan Police Department. He then studied the box carefully and was somewhat puzzled: "Usually, threatening letters have certain purposes, but this letter seems to have nothing written on it... What exactly does the sender want to do?"
"If you interpret it literally, it seems like he wants to invite us to watch his magic."
Officer Takagi suddenly remembered someone and said optimistically:
"Since we are here, let's take a look first. Speaking of which, I remember that the explosion that led to the threatening letter did not cause any casualties - perhaps it was just a prank deliberately made by a magician with a different aesthetic from the public to attract the world's attention, just like that painter."
"Painter..." Officer Sato immediately understood who he was talking about: Kobayashi Seiji, the strange artist who has superb painting skills but always paints bloody corpses.
Since there are painters who like this kind of thing, it seems very normal to have another magician who likes bloody magic but has difficulty attracting audiences, so he decides to do a big ticket to prove his worth - the Metropolitan Police Department actually receives many threatening letters every year, and there are many lawless lunatics who want to become famous.
