Corpse collector in Conan

Tsuneo Yamazaki's fingers were curled up abnormally. When he opened his palm, he could see that the skin between his palm and the fishing rod had been scorched, leaving a dark and ferocious mark.

Sayuri Umihara squatted next to Jiang Xia and was stunned when she saw this scene.

After a moment, she raised her head in the direction where Jiang Xia was looking, and her eyes fell on the lamppost next to her and the small part of the exposed wire.

She suddenly remembered that just now, the lights on the ship had flickered briefly.

Look at the position where the fishing rod fell...

As someone who often floats on the sea, the corresponding scene immediately appeared in Sayuri Umihara's mind.

——The fishing line broke, and the man who struggled to pull the fishing rod fell backwards and knocked over the fishing bucket. The conductive carbon fishing rod happened to fall on the exposed wire and was electrocuted.

...This seems to be an electric shock accident, and the cause of the tragedy is that their boat has safety hazards.

"I'm sorry." Sayuri Umihara gripped her apron anxiously, "We just did maintenance last week. I should have known that we should have been more careful at that time, or I should have come to check more often..."

"No need to apologize in a hurry."

Jiang Xia half-crouched next to the corpse, poked the hot shikigami that gradually emerged from Yamazaki Tsuneo's body, and then gently tugged. Then he let go of his hand and watched it float in the direction of Kawai Kazuyuki.

Kazuyuki Kawai is seriously playing the image of an innocent fisherman who "just woke up and doesn't know what happened" - he feels that he, the person who fainted with the deceased, looks like a person who has been on the verge of death. Innocent victims.

Noticing that someone was looking this way, Kawai Kazuyuki turned his head slightly and looked calmly at the enthusiastic young man who heard the news and came to help.

Then the more I looked at it, the more familiar it became.

"..."

Why does this man...look so much like the detective who is often in the newspapers? !

...This is Tottori! Hasn't he been active in Tokyo? !

The two sides looked at each other briefly.

Kazuyuki Kawai saw the Tokyo detective looking thoughtful.

A moment later, Kawai Kazuyuki saw Jiangxia turn his head and whispered to Sayuri Umihara: "Increasing the frequency of maintenance will not prevent an 'accident' like today.

"—because it's more like a murder than an accident."

"!!"

Both men on deck were alert at the same time.

Sayuri Umihara was stunned for a while, then slowly turned to look at Kawai Kazuyuki, her eyes gradually becoming suspicious.

Jiang Xia turned his eyes and looked around, feeling slightly relieved.

This time, the crime scene is quite small. You don’t have to run around checking in to collect clues. A simple two steps should be enough.

…

Today, Gin is still staying up late.

After all, he was on someone else's ship, so he still felt uneasy. Moreover, I rested for a while in the hotel during the day and recharged my batteries. I am now full of energy.

While I was concentrating on checking the email that the gentleman had replied to, there was a sudden knock on the door, and the sound sounded a little urgent.

Gin turned to look at the door. Soon, he put down his cell phone, reached for the gun in his pocket, walked over and slowly opened the door a crack.

Vodka's figure appeared outside the door: "Brother! He is really dead on the boat..."

"Shut up." Gin interrupted coldly.

A dead person is a dead person. I added "Sure enough" for fear that others would not discover Wu Zuo.

He turned his head and looked at the silent corridor, remembering that apart from the three people from the organization, there were only two guests in the cabin, and those two guests should be at the murder scene now, so no one heard what Vodka said.

There is no need to be busy silencing it for the time being.

Gin looked away and opened the door with a stern face: "Come in."

Vodka moved in carefully and asked in a low voice: "Brother, don't you need to go over and take a look."

"No need." Gin refused coldly, "If you encounter any cases related to him in the future, ignore them."

As long as he refuses to be an audience for Uzo's drama through action, he will know that it is useless to force people to stay, and he should never do things like "sinking the ship and asking teammates to change to a ship that can watch the case" in the future - otherwise If we only rely on Uzo's self-control... Well, it seems that at present, Uzo has no self-control at all when it comes to pursuing cases, and it will only be endless if this continues.

Vodka didn't expect it to be so complicated. When he heard what Gin said, he nodded and stopped going out.

At the same time, I was secretly happy: The eldest brother began to take the initiative to reduce contact with Uzo. In this way, the possibility of gin brother being deceived by Uzo and shooting the younger brother would also plummet... wonderful.

…

When the "electric shock accident" occurred, the ship was closer to the island.

Therefore, after Captain Haiyuan heard that the passengers were electrocuted, he did not return the same way, but came to the nearest island - in addition to the police station, there is also a hospital here, maybe he can rescue him...

The sea breeze blows on the deck.

Jiang Xia glanced at Kazuyuki Kawai, who was leaning against the side of the boat with an ugly expression, but did not solve the case immediately. Now that it's broken, we have to collect evidence again when the police arrive. It's better to wait until then to talk about it together.

The boat quickly approached the shore.

Since I had called the police in advance, a line of police cars and an ambulance were parked on the shore.

In addition, there are several hard-working reporters who are out late at night for the sake of performance.

Jiang Xia looked at the shore from a distance.

Before getting off the boat, he borrowed a plain scarf from Sayuri Umihara on the pretext that it was too cold at night on the beach and he was unprepared.

Sayuri Umihara handed over the scarf, looked up at him for a while, then quickly ran to the kitchen to make ginger soup. It's so late, I should drink something warm, this should solve the case faster...

…

The police were busy disposing of the bodies and investigating the scene.

Since this does look like an accident, and it happened on the deck, and the cause of death is clear, the police have not yet gone to other passengers for questioning.

In the relatively silent cabin.

Gin glanced at an email with a deep look.

Soon, he put away his phone and stood up with his briefcase: "Let's go."

"Oh, okay." Vodka instinct responded. He was a little confused as to why he didn't wait for Uzo, but Gin was walking in a hurry and there were many policemen on the deck. Vodka finally said nothing and just followed Gin silently, and the two quietly walked off the ship together.

…

Jiang Xia described the crime process in as concise terms as possible.

Just after dealing with the police, when I turned around, reporters came rushing over again.

There are very few high school detectives active here, so the reporters who rushed over after hearing the news were particularly enthusiastic and asked questions one after another.

Jiang Xia answered them one by one as thoroughly as possible.

During this time, he found that the mermaid was trying to pull his ears, and Miss Spider was standing at his feet with her sleeves rolled up, looking up at him, and reaching out her hook to tap his calf politely, as if she wanted to see him for something. appearance.

Jiang Xia took some time out of his busy schedule to listen to the news from them.

Then it was learned that Gin had just secretly left the Haiyuan. And just now, since he and Vodka had already walked a short distance away, if the ghosts wanted to continue to follow them, they needed Jiang Xia to supply some murderous energy.
