Corpse collector in Conan

If this "necklace" is really a personalized jewelry chosen by Jiang Xia, then when he wants to hide it, he can just find an opportunity to take it off without covering it up with a scarf.

The current situation meant that he couldn't take it off by himself... Thinking of this, the dark silhouettes of Uzo, gin and vodka began to swirl again in Toru Amuro's mind.

Speaking of which, the exaggerated patterns on the necklace resemble the style of a certain designer in the organization's equipment department. Coupled with the fact that it is thick enough to lay circuits... is it equipment produced by the organization?

Toru Amuro never misses any information in the organization that can be used for free.

He recalled the list of equipment provided by the organization and did not remember that there was such a "necklace" on it. It may be that products that are still in the experimental stage have been taken out and used by some cadres in advance.

As for "certain cadres"... Combined with what Jiang Xia said just now, "I met Gin and Vodka on the road," there is no need to guess who the holder of this piece of equipment is - Gin can indeed often get some valuable items. Drugs or equipment in the experimental stage.

As Toru Amuro speculated, she used some force to open the "necklace" and vaguely saw the metal electrodes on the inside.

Sure enough, it's a fake necklace. It's actually supposed to be some kind of control device... huh?

...control device?

The similar keywords made Toru Amuro's previous speculation that "the organization has some way to restrict Usa" flash through his mind, and then connected the two together, and the idea of ​​"Jiang Xia = Usa" emerged. .

But soon, he rationally dismissed this idea.

——It is impossible for an organization to use such a simple and crude method to restrict an important cadre. Although the keywords happened to hit each other, they should be two different things.

He let go of his hand, frowned and asked, "What exactly is going on?"

Hearing this, Jiang Xia sighed silently and wrapped the scarf silently.

Then start preparing to throw the pot.

At present, he does not want to reveal the identity of "Uzo" to Toru Amuro.

On the one hand, they don't want to be recorded by the island country's public security, and then the information will be leaked back to the organization, causing trouble.

On the other hand, a peripheral member who fishes in the organization, and a formal member who has received a code name... To the police, these are two completely different concepts.

Toru Amuro may turn a blind eye to the former, allow him to develop freely, and even lend a helping hand when necessary.

But towards the latter, it is impossible for this police officer to maintain the same attitude - even if there are too many red consciences in this world, after knowing that "Jiang Xia is Wu Zuo", whether it is to guide, supervise, arrest or instigate rebellion, Amuro Tooru will definitely pay too much attention to him.

...Although the boss can also attract cases, compared with others, his incident physique and murderous intent are not really strong. For Jiang Xia, this kind of excessive attention is really unnecessary and will only interfere with his wandering between various camps to pick up ghosts.

...In short, for the sake of stability and freedom, it’s better to cover your vest first if you can.

Just yesterday, the boss sent an email telling him that the application for upgrading the confidentiality level guaranteed by Gin had been approved. Now, even if Bourbon wanted to check, he could no longer be found through the organization's database.

As long as you pay more attention when getting along with each other on weekdays, the vest should be able to survive for a while.

However, even if there is no way to go through the database, Toru Amuro is on the black side after all, and at the same time he has a large number of police subordinates at his disposal. This special dual identity determines that he is the red party most likely to find out the whole story of "Usa"'s business trip - the photo Jiang Xia left on the ship was not originally used to fool Toru Amuro.

If you want to divert this boss's thinking, you need to use other methods.

For example, instead of waiting for Toru Amuro to sift out doubts from scratch and get closer to the truth. Jiang Xia felt that it was better to draw a fork in the road first and let the boss go astray in some key places...

When Toru Amuro asked for details, Jiang Xia thought of words:

"At the beginning, I met Gin and Vodka on the train to Tottori Prefecture. There was a shooting on the train. When arresting the prisoner, Gin intercepted the other party's pistol. After that, he was called as a witness. Asked."

Toru Amuro nodded slowly.

It sounds a bit ironic that Gin acted bravely when he saw justice, but considering his suspicious and cautious character, this move is not difficult to understand - Gin intercepted the gun, certainly not to prevent the murderer from accidentally injuring the surrounding citizens, but to prevent the people in the carriage from being shot. Other armed and dangerous individuals appear.

Seeing Amuro Toru nodding, Jiang Xia continued without changing his expression:

"In addition to gin, I also met a classmate who was going to Tottori Prefecture for a wedding in that car. When I got off the bus, I chatted with the classmate for a few words. By the time the conversation was over, the gin and vodka were gone.

“I thought I wouldn’t encounter them again.

"But one day later, a few hours before I took the boat to Moon Shadow Island, Gin and Vodka found my accommodation and asked me to board a tour boat named 'Haiyuan' to investigate the situation on the boat. "

At this point, the topic and the facts have begun to have a hidden mismatch.

Jiang Xia moved a little bit during the narration process - anyway, Gin and Amuro Touji had difficulty communicating, and they would not be honest about such details, so there was no need to worry about lying:

"After boarding the ship, I found no obvious abnormalities. After sending him the photos and observations of the ship that Gin requested, Gin asked me to 'stay in the cabin and stay out of my own business.'"

"So I never went out. Later... Gin and Vodka should have also boarded the ship, because the email sent by Gin said before that he would take back this 'necklace' when he arrived at the main island. .

"But then there was a murder case on the ship. By the time I finished solving the case, there was no organized person in the cabin - I don't know if Gin took advantage of the chaos and left, or if he didn't get on the ship in the first place and said he wanted to take back the 'necklace' Just playing with me..."

Speaking of this, Jiang Xia's expression became a little helpless, as if "I just want to work and solve crimes with peace of mind, but I have to face the oppression of unscrupulous organization cadres, I am weak, pitiful and helpless."

Toru Amuro: "..."

In other words, in such a short period of time, Jiang Xia not only had the misfortune to meet Ginjiu, he even encountered a murder case.

...This is really the standard luck of a high school detective. No wonder people say that the detective profession is blessed by heaven. After all, not everyone can encounter murders anytime, anywhere, regardless of occasion.

Toru Amuro patted his unlucky employee on the shoulder sympathetically and glanced at the "necklace" around Jiang Xia's neck that symbolized the evil forces of the organization: "This should be equipment that is still under development. It's not good until the structure is figured out. Hard disassembly...I'll go to the equipment department to help you ask."
