Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 817 Uzo: This is my cat asking for a monthly pass (づど)

   “I didn’t expect such a follow, and actually followed this group of gangsters directly. Fortunately, they were not vigilant and misestimated our state. Only then did I have a chance to release the other two hostages.”

“As for that shot… I don’t even know who fired it. I thought it was Miss Masuo who found the police, and then you called in snipers… Since it wasn’t, maybe it was the Guihu Guild’s opponent?” Jiang Xia Thinking and sighing, as if seriously reviewing:

“The situation at that time was really dangerous. I originally wanted to stay and observe the whereabouts of the Guihu Society. Although Mr. Yamabe has successfully escaped their control, if these men in black want to assassinate someone, they will use their control over them. With the weapons, you can always have the opportunity to attack… Speaking of which, I didn’t expect that these guys would take children as hostages.”

   Speaking of this, Jiang Xia glanced at the “rescued” children next to him, and reached out to touch their heads: “It’s too dangerous, fortunately nothing happened in the end.”

  Three bear children: “…”

Even before they went upstairs, brother Jiang Xia was already beating people, and he was very happy… But just now, the detective brother put the two things together, although there was no word representing sequence or causality in the middle. , but I don’t know why, the whole thing sounds like the three of them ran upstairs naughty and were unfortunately caught by the gangster, which led to Jiang Xia, who was watching secretly, and took the risk to defeat the gangster…

   Although he felt a heavy pot slowly fall on his tender back.

But for various reasons: for example, what Jiang Xia said is true when viewed separately; for example, Jiang Xia’s throwing stick was confiscated, and the tip was vaguely exposed from his pocket… They are like three silent wooden stakes, honest Standing in a pile on the ground, not daring to make a sound.

  …

  The policemen who were called from all over heard this and were moved by Jiang Xia’s decisiveness and bravery.

  Mikako Sato and Shibu Takagi, the policemen who often deal with Jiang Xia, have a big “?” in their hearts. I always felt that the real reason Jiang Xia beat the prisoner was not this.

However, when I looked at the prisoner, I found that except for the man in black who was shot by the gun, no one else had any injuries that were too difficult to recover. Maybe they would recover on their own on the way to the police station… Therefore, compared to this The faces of many people told Jiang Xia not to hit the prisoner, and the attention of a few insiders gradually shifted to the sniper who shot from a distance.

  ——Although it is also a sense of righteousness, but it is not compared to knocking a criminal without injury. Shooting this kind of thing is more worthy of attention.

  …

   A few dozen meters away.

  Okiya Subaru looked at the police who arrived in time, and Jiang Xia and the child who walked out of the building and got into the car, and pushed their glasses with hidden merit and fame.

The only thing that surprised him was that the police’s rescue operation was so efficient: Jiang Xia and a group of children were picked up not long after entering the building, and there was not much movement. People bundled up and carried away…

   In this way, the police do not seem to be as bad as their colleagues in the organization say.

   found out after this was over.

  Okiya Subaru left silently, returned to his car, and closed the door softly.

   But it didn’t start a fire, and didn’t drive away immediately.

  ——The alley in front of the building is very narrow. Only a few police cars came under the building, and the others were all on the way from here to the main road.

If he swaggered out now, he would be easily seen by the police, even left for questioning, and then received by some well-informed organization cadres—after all, almost no one passed by here, and there were not many cars, and he appeared here by himself. Actually a bit awkward.

  …Fortunately, the matter has been resolved smoothly, Okiya Subaru thought, before the police car leaves, he should not move. Wait for these people to leave, and then slip away in a low-key manner.

  Thinking like this, he opened the laptop next to him and began to think about the topic to be presented at the next meeting.

  …

   Before he could start typing, something suddenly moved in the corner of his eye.

   Okiya Subaru was startled for a moment, then raised his head.

   I saw the front cover of the car, and I don’t know when there was a black cat.

   The familiar white-pawed black cat paced closer, raised its paws politely, and knocked on his front window.

   Okiya Subaru was surprised: “…Little black!”

  Sigh, sure enough, good people have good rewards. After doing a good deed, the cat that I could never find appeared unexpectedly…

   He threw the notebook aside, opened the door, got out of the car, and walked to the cat.

   just reached out and wanted to touch the cat’s head. The other party suddenly raised his claw and stopped his hand that was about to move.

   Then he put a slender object in his mouth on the hood.

   It was a cylindrical object the size of a pinky finger. As soon as it landed on the front cover of the car, it rolled down because of the inclined arc.

   Okiya Subaru reflexively held it down. I thought it was a gift from the cat after a long absence. But when I picked it up and looked at it, I found that it was a regular name stamp with “Toramura Yuji” engraved on it.

   Okiya Subaru: “…?”

  …When he usually watched other people sharing cat videos on the Internet, he heard that cats gave gifts to humans, mice, birds, and even leaves.

   I didn’t expect Xiao Hei to be very different, so I sent him a seal directly… As expected of a smart cultural cat, it’s really not bad.

   I just don’t know if the hapless owner of the seal is in a hurry at this time…

   Okiya Subaru hesitated for a moment, strangled his conscience, and planned to put the seal away and treasure it.

   At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind:

   “Before 3:30 this afternoon, take it to the Hirano Pharmacy in Matsubara-machi, and hand it over to Kentaro Yamanaka – hand it into his own hands.”

  ”!” Okiya Subaru froze.

  … The speaker sounds a little unfamiliar. Because Subaru Okiya listened to him only a few times.

   But at the same time, because the impression was too deep, the voice was firmly imprinted in his brain like a soldering iron. The moment the man behind him spoke, Subaru Okiya seemed to have seen the corpse of a woman buried in the ground for a month and quietly rotting, and the tip of his nose seemed to be haunted by that lingering terrifying corpse. smell.

  …this is Uzo’s voice!

  …

  Jiang Xia wore Matsuda Jinping’s vest, stood under the tree, and pushed the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose.

   Two seconds have passed since the conversation.

   The new subordinate was still frozen in place, without turning his head.

   The psychic has no mind-reading skills. Jiang Xia didn’t know that Subaru Okiya had already appeared for him, adding a lot of dynamic back images, bgm, and even smells… I just felt that the response to this one was a bit slow.

   However, considering that Okiya Subaru may also be regarded as a civilian, his usual use is to carry a pot or use it to catch Akai Shuichi.

   Jiang Xia generously ignored his flaws and waited patiently.
