Corpse collector in Conan

Jiang Xia asked the ghosts to follow him out to see the situation.

After confirming that Toru Amuro had left, he turned over, pushed away the quilt, sat up, and began to count the murderous aura that had just been collected from the boss and vodka.

...I didn't lie on the ground for a while today.

The effort is all worth it.

…

A little after midnight.

Jiang Xia finished counting the murderous intent, washed up and slept for a while.

I hadn't slept for long when I suddenly heard a knock on the door.

He was startled, and then let the ghosts pass through the door and take a look, and then walked over and opened the door.

Standing outside the door was a young woman wearing a simple skirt, short hair with slightly long bangs, and glasses.

There are only two women in this mansion.

One of them is Akiko Utagura, who is fashionably dressed and has cute spiral curls permed and dyed, an idol who is about to debut.

The other one is the handsome Izumi Maho in front of him, but his sense of presence is inexplicably low.

Izumi Maho seems to be very socially awkward.

At this time, she saw that Jiang Xia really opened the door. After being stiff, she muttered for a long time before whispering the reason why she knocked on the detective's door in the middle of the night:

"That...Miss Akiko is missing.

"This mansion is usually not cleaned, and not many rooms have been cleaned. Miss Akiko and I live in the same room. Before going to the restaurant tonight, she said she had a fever and did not come to eat.

"After I returned to the room, I originally wanted to find her the painkillers I brought with me, but I found that she was not in the room. I have waited until now, and she has not come back. The phone cannot be connected..."

Speaking of this, Izumi Maho glanced at his phone worriedly.

Almost at the same time, her phone buzzed with a new text message.

Izumi Maho was stunned for a moment, opened the cover of his phone, and clicked on the screen to check.

Jiang Xia also walked around and took a look.

On the screen, a concise text message was opened, with black text on a white background, and the cold system text had an inexplicable air of terror.

It says--

[I have been resurrected here

——Kira]

Izumi Maho saw the signature on it clearly, and his already pale face became even paler. His hand shook and the phone fell straight to the ground.

...Then he was intercepted by Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia picked up her phone and looked at it twice, showing a thoughtful look:

"'Here' probably refers to the meditation room. That is the place where séances are held. If the person pretending to be a ghost wants to choose a place for Kira to be resurrected, they may choose that place first - go and have a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door next to him opened with a bang.

Hachiwa Hiroshi grabbed his cell phone with one hand and combed his sleep-tangled hair with the other hand, and rushed out of the room.

Then he saw Jiang Xia in the corridor at a glance.

His eyes suddenly lit up and he ran towards the detective anxiously. At the same time, he shook the phone in his hand and said half excitedly and half horrified: "Kira is resurrected!"

Jiang Xia was silent for a moment, raised her hand to grab his swinging wrist, and glanced at the screen that finally stopped.

I saw Hachigawa Hiroshi's cell phone, which was also open in the text message interface at this time.

The text displayed above is exactly the same as the message Izumi Maho received——[I have been resurrected here——Kira]

"The sending time is the same...it should be sent in bulk." Jiang Xia invited him smoothly, "We are planning to go to the meditation room to have a look. Can we come together?"

Hachiwa Hiroshi nodded nervously.

Then the two of them rushed along the dark corridor to the meditation room.

Izumi Maho was biting his fingers and didn't dare to go.

But as the two people in front walked away, a faint wind blew through the corridor. Izumi Maho raised his hands and crossed his arms, looking at the dim and flickering lights around him, and suddenly shivered.

After being stunned for a moment, she whispered "Wait!" and quickly chased after him.

…

The guest room and the meditation room are just across the hall.

When Jiang Xia walked halfway, Miss Spider, who was sitting on his shoulder, was suddenly startled.

Then she raised her spider legs and knocked Jiang Xia on the head politely.

Jiang Xia was also startled and turned her head in confusion.

In the dim hall, near the door, there was a man in black robes holding a briefcase standing there, his figure melting into the night, making a gesture to open the door.

As Jiang Xia and Yachuan Koji suddenly passed by, the tall man in black robe temporarily stopped his movements in order not to make a sound.

Jiang Xia stopped, took a look at the familiar figure, and recognized it.

Then he shouted decisively: "Mr. Yamada?"... He remembered that this was the pseudonym used by the vodka star.

The black figure at the door froze when he heard Jiang Xia's voice: "..."

After a moment, Vodka turned around, hid the briefcase behind his broad back, and asked nonchalantly: "What's wrong?"

There were no lights on in the hall, and it was pitch dark.

Vodka was originally dressed in black, his robe and briefcase were also black, and he even wore sunglasses. It was difficult to see clearly in the night.

Yachawa Koji didn't have the night vision ability that Jiang Xia borrowed from a ghost. He didn't notice Vodka's escape attempt and had no time to think about it.

He just explained excitedly: "We just received a strange text message saying that Kira has been resurrected now!"

After saying that, the two people ran towards the meditation room without stopping, followed by a young woman who was trying to catch up.

Vodka, who was left behind, looked at the corridor they left, and then at the door behind him, hesitated for a moment, and followed silently.

...It’s better not to run away in front of Uzo.

I always felt that since this guy left with peace of mind and didn't stop him, maybe Uzo had tampered with the car or the only way out of here.

Thinking of this, Vodka couldn't help but think of his gin brother's favorite method:

For example, what makes the target explode with a bang as soon as he opens the door; a bang and explosion as soon as he inserts the seat belt; a bang and explosion as soon as he twists the car key...

Thinking about it again, sometimes, Uzo seems to have some habits in common with his elder brother, such as the sinister gin-smelling sneer, hitting people with a stick, and attacking people when they disagree.

If Uzo even learned about the bomb in the car...

"..." Vodka shuddered silently as he thought of those charred corpses, and then thought of his own body that was not yet strong enough not to be afraid of explosions.

…As expected, it’s better to stay in this mansion and act together with the others.

If you think about it calmly, no matter what, he is also a physically qualified member of the organization. As long as you're vigilant enough and don't get attacked by surprise, it's actually not that easy to die...

With this in mind, Vodka hid his briefcase, followed the crowd carefully, and headed to the meditation room.

…

The door to the meditation room has no keyhole. It is usually locked with a heavy padlock.

After they left the meditation room just now, Hirasaka Reiki did lock the door himself.

...However, now, the four people gathered at the door of the meditation room discovered that the lock was missing.

But when I reached out and pushed the door, it was still firmly closed and couldn't be pushed open at all... It was as if it was blocked from the inside by some mysterious force.
