Corpse collector in Conan

Chapter 1164 1164 [Jiangxia confuses right and wrong]

Maori Detective Agency.

Mao Lilan, Yuan Shan and Ye were hung up inexplicably. They looked at the receiver. After a moment, Mao Lilan suddenly reacted and looked at the ornaments on the table:

"Could this Guan Yu statue be the mark left by the arsonist..."

Yuan Shan and Ye got goosebumps when they heard her soft breath, as if she was afraid of disturbing something.

She said stiffly: "I, I always feel that there seems to be some rustling noises at the door. Could it be that the devil came to the door..."

If a real criminal were put directly in front of them, they might not be afraid.

But this mysterious method of "first releasing a terrible thing into the target's home, and then floating there like the god of death", coupled with the terrifying aura of having just killed a person, made their hearts beat violently. stand up.

The two stood up and made the same decision: "Get out of here first!"

They ran to the door, hurriedly put on their shoes, and opened the door. Suddenly, they saw a terrifying figure outside the door.

——Central-parted watermelon hair, old-fashioned round-rimmed glasses, and a slightly chubby body... This was the man who gave them "Red Horse" keychains on the bus, and he ran up to them without knowing when. Doorstep!

"ah--!!"

The two female high school students let out a scream of fear and helplessness, and at the same time, they instinctively flew out with their feet. The toes of their shoes brought up a sharp gust of wind and went straight to the face of the "arsonist".

At the moment when he was about to hit, the owner of the antique shop suddenly fell to the side, as if he was forcefully pulled away by someone.

The two girls' attacks failed, and they quickly retracted their feet.

They looked to the side warily, and then suddenly they were stunned - the owner of the antique shop did not come alone, there was another person standing next to him.

"...Jiang Xia?"

Mao Lilan and Yuan Shanheye were already prepared for a fierce battle.

Unexpectedly, when I took a closer look at this moment, I saw that it was one of my own people.

They first breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, and then a series of question marks popped up in their minds:

"Have you finished investigating the case? Where are Conan and Heiji?...Do you know the person next to you?"

"The investigation hasn't been completed yet. The two of them are interviewing the suspect." Jiang Xia turned around and glanced at Xuantian Lunde, who was in shock next to him:

"When I came back, I happened to meet Boss Xuantian nearby. He said that he was looking for two high school girls. It was a very important matter. The people he described sounded very similar to you, so I followed him to see what happened. Something happened."

With that said, he turned to look at Xuantian Lunde: "What can I do for you?"

"Well, that's it." Xuantian Longde came back to his senses and suddenly burst into tears when he saw Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuye, "Please return the keychain I gave you this afternoon! Otherwise there will be a fire here. Yes, uncle, I, I will definitely burn this place down..."

"..." Mao Lilan and Yuan Shanheye were frightened again, but this time it was for other reasons - they did not expect that this would happen after the arsonist came to their door. He could only say hastily, "Wait a moment."

Then he quickly ran back to the table and took Guan Yu's keychain.

Xuantian Longde took it fearfully and put it away carefully.

Almost at the same time, Mao Lilan subconsciously took out her mobile phone and pressed 110 - when encountering a prisoner or a case, you should call the police first, and her fingers moved instinctively.

However, before pressing the dial button, a hand suddenly stretched out from beside her, interrupting her movement.

Jiang Xia stopped and said, "Wait a minute, I don't think he looks like the murderer."

Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuye: "...huh?"

No, it doesn’t look like it?

They took a closer look at Xuenta Lundoku's face. Although people should not be judged by their appearance, according to their experience from childhood to adulthood, Xuanda Lunde's appearance, coupled with his excited and gasping expression at this moment, looked like the word "evil" was written on his face.

"..." However, if you think about it carefully, the detective's judgment should be more accurate than theirs, not to mention that the detective is Jiang Xia, who has done some investigation into serial arson cases.

Mao Lilan deleted the number he just entered and put down his phone.

Yuan Shan and Ye Ze couldn't help but become curious and asked Jiang Xia: "It's not him? But doesn't the red rabbit keychain he distributed just correspond to the 'red horse' logo left at the arson scene?"

Xuenta Longde was stunned for a moment, and after a moment he came to his senses, shaking his head with tears in his eyes and confessing: "It's really me! In fact, I have always had symptoms of sleepwalking when I was a child, and it happened again recently. It must have been at that time..."

Seeing him excitedly waving his tear-stained hands, Jiang Xia couldn't help but step back a little: "...I said it wouldn't be you if it wasn't you."

Mao Lilan and Yuan Shanheye also advised: "Yes, yes, why do you have to take the blame for yourself? - Since it was sleepwalking, you probably don't remember what happened during that time, so how can you say that you are a sleepwalker?" Are you committing a crime?"

"??" Xuantian Lunde failed to understand the brain circuits of these young people. He repeated it back and forth several times, but no one was willing to listen to what he said, and he was a little angry for a while:

"You, you... did you commit the crime or did I commit the crime! Who else could be the murderer besides me? - The place where the first arson case occurred was right next door to my house. The owner of the house that crashed was my father's friend and also the owner of my shop. of regular customers.

"When he was visiting, I gave him the Guan Yu keychain. Not long after, his house suddenly caught fire late at night. The police found the iconic 'red horse' in his house, which I gave him. gifts.

"I didn't think much about it at first. I just thought my neighbor was very unlucky. I thought the horse's base was of high quality and very resistant to burning. But when I saw the report the next day, I discovered that the owner had no idea where the 'red horse' came from. Come on! The police speculated that it was a token left by the arsonist. It was used to refer to the arsonist's lingo 'Red Horse', provoking the police... Do you know what this means!"

What he said sounded a bit weird and scary.

But Mao Lilan and Yuan Shanheye had completely believed Jiang Xia's words at this time, and felt that the arsonist was someone else, so they thought about it rationally: "...Does it mean that your neighbor is old and has a bad memory? ——Since he is the same age as your father, he should be quite old."

"That's not the reason!" Xuantian Longde shook his head sadly. Before Jiang Xia showed up, he never thought that surrendering would be so difficult:

"I must have been hallucinating - I secretly put the red horse in his house, but didn't remember it. Then I suffered from sleepwalking. I couldn't help but follow the keychain, ran to his house and set fire to it.

"The same thing happened with the case at Acupido Town 4-chome not long ago - I was scolded so much by Mrs. Morokaku, and I was actually very angry... I must have pretended to endure it, but actually went back uncontrollably. After putting down the keychain, Burned her house down.”
