Corpse collector in Conan

After discovering the abnormality, Toru Amuro temporarily turned his attention away from the collapse point several kilometers away.

He found the guest room assigned to Jiang Xia by Hirasaka Reiki, walked over and knocked on the door.

Although Feng Jian cannot ignore it, Jiang Xia should also keep an eye on it... Well, before going to Feng Jian, let's secretly install a camera or something like this in Jiang Xia, and leave a loudspeaker. If Vodka comes into the room in the middle of the night when he is not around to threaten or cause trouble, he can intimidate him from the air...

…

However, after thinking about where to hide the camera and loudspeaker, Jiang Xia's room door was still closed, and no one came to open the door.

"...?"

Toru Amuro knocked a few more times, paused for a moment, and said tentatively: "I'm in."

Then he held the door handle and pushed it.

The door opened silently.

...The room was not locked. After the door was opened, the mysteriously decorated guest room appeared in front of Toru Amuro.

The bed in the room was neat and tidy, and there was no one on the chairs or sofa.

Jiang Xia is not inside.

"..."

...where are the people?

…

a few minutes ago.

While Toru Amuro was lingering in the restaurant, communicating remotely with several subordinates, and thinking about the next plan.

While Jiang Xia listened to the real-time broadcast of the ghosts on Toru Amuro's mobile phone screen, she vaguely guessed the action her boss was about to take.

At the same time, he glanced around in boredom, suddenly paused, and stopped at the vodka in front of him.

Vodka's intuition turns out to be quite sensitive.

While Jiang Xia was paying attention to him, he suddenly felt something and looked back covertly.

The two men looked at each other briefly.

The air seemed to freeze for a second.

After a second, Vodka turned back as if nothing had happened and continued walking towards his room.

However, if you look closely, you can see that his pace seems to be a little faster than before.

Jiang Xia: "..." It was quite fun to be surprised...

He stared at Vodka's back, thoughtfully.

...Speaking of which, I haven’t used my mobile phone for several days, and I haven’t read those weird letters of commission from the office. It’s really boring.

Moreover, although Vodka and Gin often act separately, for ordinary citizens like Jiang Xia who only see them once every few days or even more than a month, it is not easy for Vodka to go out and act alone.

...If you want to squeeze out the murderous energy from vodka, this seems like a good opportunity.

——Although Gin will kill a few people every now and then, he does not believe in random killings, because that will attract the attention of the police. This pair of organizations that pursue a low-key and mysterious organization... well, at least in concept, they pursue a low-key and mysterious organization. It is undoubtedly not a good thing.

Therefore, Jiang Xia thought, maybe Vodka usually doesn't show murderous intent because Gin is by his side. Gin needs to decide whether to kill or not, so Vodka will not have murderous intentions until it receives the order.

...But now, without Gin, Vodka can only rely on his own efforts and his own judgment.

In this way, maybe when he feels threatened, his desire for survival will burst out, and he will instinctively show a little murderous intent... After all, Vodka is also a serious member of the organization, and even received a code name. He must have murderous intent, but he is just hiding it secretly...

Except, of course, for the murderous kick of Curious Vodka. Currently, there is another vodka-related matter that concerns Jiang Xia.

——The last time he met Vodka was in Tottori Prefecture.

Compared with then, tonight, Vodka's attitude has obviously changed a lot.

To put it simply, Vodka was still shocked after seeing him, but he seemed to have something to rely on... Obviously Gin was not with him now.

Jiang Xia suspected that there was something worth being vigilant about and secretly happened behind his back.

...It is necessary to chat with Vodka as soon as possible to find out the situation.

and……

Jiang Xia looked back at the empty corridor and thought of Toru Amuro, who was busy because of Kazami Yuya's disappearance. He felt that it would be a waste not to do something with this opportunity.

——When he was looking for Vodka to have a friendly exchange, if Toru Amuro just ran to Kazami directly, then of course there would be no problem.

And if the boss is dragging his feet and plans to visit him first, and then suddenly finds out that he and Vodka are together...then Vodka is the ready-made scapegoat to take the blame.

——Although Vodka is amazing in some aspects, after all, he is also a formal member with considerable authority and has absolute command over peripheral members.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, if Vodka wants to talk to Jiang Xia in a deserted place, Jiang Xia has to give him some face...

Moreover, Jiang Xia remembered that half an hour ago, when a group of people were looking for seats in the dark in the meditation room, Vodka once distracted and sat next to him, seemingly interested in him, a peripheral member of the famous detective... Rare Vodka I got a divine assist by accident. If I didn't use it, wouldn't I be living up to the efforts of this good colleague?

In the end, even after putting the blame on Vodka, Toru Amuro still became suspicious because of this, so it shouldn't be a big deal.

After all, this is not the first time that the boss has become suspicious after this trip - according to Jiang Xia's observation, Amuro Toru is always on the verge of suspicion. Now, if you jump more often, it’s just like exercising...

It just so happened that Jiang Xia felt that Toru Amuro's suspicion of him had dropped visibly since he saw the vodka. Compared to the past when Jiang Xia had to keep an eye on everything he did, Toru Amuro now even started to actively slow down his pace and get out of Jiang Xia's field of vision in order to check his mobile phone...

If this continues, this journey full of surprises will probably come to an end soon.

...And if the boss has doubts again, they might be able to play outside for a while longer.

Anyway, no matter how long it takes, Toru Amuro will never be able to find strong evidence of the "case planned by Jiangxia".

After all, Jiang Xia is really just an ordinary detective who is busy solving cases, and rarely does what "Uzuo" likes to do in the eyes of the organization cadres.

As for vodka, don't worry too much. He is also Gin's assistant after all, and he still has a very strict mouth. Even if you may occasionally show "frightened" uncontrollably later on, this source of fright can also explain the "bourbon" that is not friendly to vodka.

In addition, considering that there is a signal here, Vodka may have told Gin that he met Bourbon. It took Toru Amuro several years to break into the black organization, and there is still room for improvement. He probably won't risk exposing his identity just to catch a piece of vodka.

As long as Vodka is not caught, there will be no exchange of information between "Vodka" and "Bourbon", two bottles of wine that have no superior-subordinate relationship. Naturally, the news of "Jiangxia=Uzuo" will not leak out from Vodka.
