Corpse collector in Conan

The old woman sighed and said, “In fact, it’s not just these three. There are many unclaimed bodies in the cemetery in this forest.

"I simply erected tombstones for the unknown bodies that died, but over the years, their graves were destroyed by animals in the woods. Now, only my wife and I have three people whose graves are still there."

Conan always wondered, "Why were their graves the only ones not destroyed?"

"Who knows?" The old woman was also a little confused. "Maybe it's because I take Saburo to visit their graves every day, and the Snow Girl can't get close to them because of her popularity."

Policemen: “…” Any topic can be turned into superstition.

Jiang Xia listened to this and looked out the window thoughtfully: The new ghost baby does seem a little introverted. Maybe it's because there are too many people here that she ran away without saying hello?

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia quietly retreated behind the crowd. While the others were still chatting, he tidied up the ghost mint on his body, pushed the door open, and returned to the snow outside.

In the house.

Most people didn't notice the detective's sneaky movements.

Except, of course, Curacao.

Glancing at the door that was opening and closing slightly, a member of the organization disguised as a lawyer touched his chin with a wary look: "..." Why was he suddenly going out?

When everyone is gathered together, if someone suddenly acts alone, it is undoubtedly a very dangerous death signal.

...But this is just the experience that others have summarized in dealing with Uzo: and if the matter happens to Uzo, everything seems different.

——Compared to this lone man, Curacao always felt that the other people who were alone in the house were in a more dangerous situation.

"How about we go over and take a look?"

This thought flashed through his mind, and after hesitating for a moment, Curacao stood up quietly.

——Just now she peeked into the two hunters’ packages, and inside were several bundles of ready-made time bombs.

The tunnel that was suddenly buried by the avalanche was probably the work of these two hunters. And with the remaining explosives, it would be effortless to blow down the villa.

"If I stay in the house, I will have to face bombs that could explode at any time, the house collapsing, the encumbrance and conspiracy of others, and perhaps even poison that could be put into my teacup without my knowledge.

“But if I follow Uzo, I just have to be careful if someone attacks me from behind.”

Curacao clenched his fist slowly, and his knuckles made a self-protective clicking sound: "To put it another way, even if I run into a corpse outside again and am regarded as a major suspect... Wuzo will always maintain Jiang Xia's image as a detective - that is to say, as long as I don't kill anyone, he won't frame me as the real murderer.

“And according to my intelligence, at present, at least when facing the police, Uzo is indeed very measured as Rum said, and will not really let colleagues who know important information fall into the hands of the police.

"So the biggest loss after I follow them is to lose the gun on me before the police search me... A mere gun is better than being blown into charcoal for no reason."

After quickly weighing the pros and cons of the two options, Curacao no longer hesitated. She gritted her teeth, went out, and followed Jiang Xia.

At the same time, she took out her cell phone and pointed the camera at the figure that had not yet completely gone away.

——If someone asked her afterwards why she went out in the middle of the night, she would say that she saw Jiang Xia going out, and so she was worried about the detective's safety and was afraid of disturbing him from solving the case, so she did not dare to go forward and could only follow him from a distance.

As a serious and kind lawyer, this makes sense.

…

After Curacao left.

The side door of the hut opened and closed, and another person quietly followed out.

Calvados closed the door with his backhand and shrank his neck against the cold wind.

Then he narrowed his eyes and looked out at the snowy night.

"Why is that woman following Jiang Xia?" A sniper had several questions in his mind. "And why did that detective suddenly run into the woods alone?"

——He didn’t notice the movement here at first, but when Jiang Xia stood up, the “new doctor” turned his eyes to him.

So Calvados also looked over, and then saw the detective secretly go out and the lawyer quietly follow him.

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly had an idea and followed.

…

In the house.

The three of them left quietly. Except for Vermouth, whose eyes twitched slightly, the others were still seriously discussing why the tomb of the old store manager and his wife had not been destroyed, as if it was blessed by the mountain god.

The two hunters' minds were not here.

After exchanging a glance, the bespectacled hunter interrupted the conversation and said, "Since there are other people wandering in the woods besides us, then the murderer is obvious, right? It must be the suspicious outsider wearing a hat, with a scarf and goggles covering his face."

Officer Sato: “But…”

The bespectacled hunter waved his hand and said, "Listen to me first! Although we don't know the exact time of death of that unlucky guy, since the murderer placed the chocolate made at dark next to the body, then everyone here has no time to commit the crime."

"That's not right." Suzuki Sonoko stroked her chin like a detective assistant and pointed out the loophole rigorously, "We really didn't have time to put chocolate next to the body - but this bearded uncle met us very late, he must have had time to do it!"
