Corpse collector in Conan

After one hour.

While the car was driving on a winding mountain road, the tires suddenly made a loud bang.

Then it collapsed.

Jiang Xia was awakened by the familiar movement. She was still a little dazed, but her body had instinctively begun to gather puppets in the trunk, preparing to puncture the spare tire.

However, before the puppet was formed, Xiaobai and Miss Spider, who also consciously floated into the trunk, floated back one after another, looking a little lonely.

——This time, because Yuya Kazami suddenly disappeared, and the police were busy searching for the strange passenger who hitchhiked in the middle of the night, the group of people was inevitably in a hurry, and Toru Amuro was inexplicably out of sorts.

In short, there was no new spare tire in the trunk.

Jiang Xia was awakened by the sound of a flat tire.

Toru Amuro had already expertly stabilized the car, parked it on the side of the road, and sighed.

Then he adjusted the position of the gun bag, opened the door and got out of the car.

Jiang Xia got out of the car after him and walked to the back of the car.

When Toru Amuro reached out and pushed open the trunk, he glanced down and was startled.

After a while, the undercover police officer, who had been very sleep-deprived recently, frowned and muttered in a low voice: "The whole thing was stolen this time..."

Jiang Xia: "...?"

...Slander, this is slander.

He didn't steal the tires, and neither did the puppets.

Xiaobai and Miss Spider seemed to have the same feeling, looking at Toru Amuro, a faint light flashed in their eyes simultaneously.

Although someone suddenly took the blame, Jiang Xia was silent for a moment, thinking of the surprise trip carefully arranged by her boss, and decided to pretend that nothing happened.

He habitually looked around, planning to find a place to stay.

However, it is still some distance away from the Dusk Annex. He didn't see the annex whose quality had been greatly reduced, but he saw another building.

Jiang Xia pointed far ahead diagonally: "There is a gas station there, there should be spare tires."

Toru Amuro glanced in the direction of the gas station and nodded.

Although the subordinates who followed them from afar kept spare tires, they could pretend to be passers-by at any time and come to deliver the tires.

But now, it would be too suspicious to wait for someone on the road instead of going to the nearby gas station.

Thinking of this, Toru Amuro yawned, rubbed his forehead, and walked towards the gas station: "Go and take a look."

After taking two steps, he suddenly remembered something and stopped again.

He turned around, looked at Jiang Xia who was following him, and stopped him: "There is still some important information in the car, you can stay here."

...This is a lie.

... Mainly because of all the way to this point, even Toru Amuro, who firmly does not believe in coincidence and only cares about physical evidence, will inevitably become wary of such things as "incident constitution" at this time.

Although the dice decided to continue to observe Jiang Xia and persist until the end of the plan. But Toru Amuro actually wanted to take a rest. He didn't really want to stay in the mountains anymore, but planned to at least stick to the city where there were comfortable hotels.

In short, considering that in a place like a gas station, even if there are not many customers, there will definitely be some staff there, Toru Amuro decisively decided to keep Jiang Xia away from there and stay in an unmanned car. I will go get a spare tire and go back quickly.

As we all know, as long as there are no people, there will be no murders.

Jiang Xia nodded, had no objection to this, and returned to the car.

There are actually not many cases at gas stations.

What he cares about more than this is: after crossing two more mountains and crossing a bridge, there is the Dusk Villa where a case may occur...

…

In a gas station.

Kidd wore an ordinary disguised face and wore a dark blue employee uniform. He mingled among the staff and secretly looked at the passers-by.

Recently, he failed to find a suitable gem, but accidentally discovered that someone was using his name to defraud.

——Several famous detectives received a dark invitation letter, inviting them to have dinner at the "Twilight Villa". The invitation was signed "The Phantom of the Forsaken Son of God."

Kidd stared at the long string of signatures for a while and frowned.

"Phantom" means elusive and elusive, needless to say. The remaining "forsaken son of God", combined with biblical allusions, can make people think of the "little goat". When this word is converted into English, it becomes Kid.

...Just like a letter of authorization with cash sandwiched between it, Hattori Heiji can always be summoned accurately.

Those who commit crimes in Kidd's name can always be punished by God with precision.

After Kidd discovered that his name had been used fraudulently, he decisively decided to sneak into this mysterious dinner to see what was going on.

…

Today, he came to work at this gas station not far from the Dusk Annex just to guard his target - Ikumi Gunda who was invited.

Kidd plans to stun Ikumi Gunda who is passing by and hide him, while he disguises himself as her and goes to the banquet.

Before that, he had seriously considered "disguising himself as Jiang Xia" and conducted corresponding investigations on Jiang Xia.

So now, as soon as Toru Amuro entered the gas station, Kidd immediately recognized him - he seemed to be the boss of the detective agency where Jiang Xia worked.

Suddenly seeing Toru Amuro and thinking about Jiang Xia, who had been away from Tokyo recently, Kidd's mind suddenly became active.

Speaking of which, when he was browsing the treasure news yesterday, he seemed to have seen reports on Jiang Xia's case solving. A little bit of Toru Amuro also appeared in the corners of those pictures. Although no one was directly photographed, it is still relatively easy to recognize for a Phantom Thief like Kidd who needs to memorize human characteristics.

In other words, since Amuro Toru appears in this gas station, Jiang Xia is probably nearby too...

…

To Kidd, Jiang Xia was just a detective whom he had met several times at the crime scene.

According to Kidd's observation, although Jiang Xia is very keen and often gives him the illusion that "this detective has seen through my disguise", in general, Jiang Xia does not seem to be enthusiastic about "catching the Phantom Thief". On the contrary , he often sat in the crowd of police officers and was distracted, and he was even suspected by the Zhongsen Police Department and arrested and had his face slapped several times.

...If he hadn't been worried that his disguise would be ruined when his face was caught, Kidd would have tried to disguise himself as Jiang Xia - Jiang Xia seemed to have a good relationship with the second lady of the Suzuki family, so it was easy to get close to the treasure. location.

And this time, among the detectives invited to Dusk Villa, Jiang Xia was actually included.

When Kidd first discovered this, he was very excited: the dinner was not directly signed by "Kidd", but required solving a mystery; in addition, there was no reservation for stolen treasures.

In other words, the Zhongsen Police Department, who loves to tease Jiang Xia’s face, will not appear...

Thinking of this, Kidd suddenly had an idea and planned to disguise himself as Jiang Xia, but he gave up his long-cherished wish and took on the challenge of playing this somewhat mysterious detective in his opinion.

However, the day before, after going to the office where Jiang Xia worked, Kidd found out with regret that there was indeed an invitation letter from Dusk Annex in the mailbox at the door of the office, but the invited Jiang Xia was not there. Tokyo, whereabouts are currently unknown.

"I don't like pirates who burn, kill and plunder, nor do I like the current government in the world, so I turn a blind eye to some things that should be taken care of, and I have to take care of some things that shouldn't be taken care of - this That’s my justice.”

Facing the juniors who have just been promoted to generals, Figo, the first generation director of Impel City, said this.

Kizaru: "I'm done learning."

When I returned to the office, I wrote ‘Ambiguous Justice’ and hung it on the wall.
