Corpse collector in Conan

To find out whether Jiang Xia is Wu Zuo, perhaps we can start from the purpose of his trip.

Uzo's motivation for this trip was undoubtedly the organization's mission.

And Jiang Xia's business trip...

Toru Amuro pressed his forehead and recalled carefully, remembering the letter Jiang Xia had read to him when he asked for leave.

The signature should be "Aso Keiji". If it was in regular print, Toru Amuro might have forgotten it after so many days. But the commission letter was made up of fonts cut from various places. It was of different sizes and had a strong visual feel. It still left an impression on him to this day.

Toru Amuro thought for a moment and sent an email to his subordinates:

[Go and look up "Aso Keiji" from Tsukikage Island in Tottori Prefecture. I want all his information and whether he has anything to do with the explosion on Moon Shadow Island. If he died in the explosion, find other closely related people to find out why he sent the letter of entrustment to Jiang Xia. If it’s not him who sent the letter, go find the real sender - don’t appear directly around Moon Shadow Island, be careful to stay hidden]

After sending the message, Toru Amuro thought for a while, changed his mobile phone, accessed the organization's database, and searched for "Jiangxia Tongzhi" in the personnel column.

——Jiang Xia once participated in his mission as a peripheral member, and Amuro Toru had the authority to check Jiang Xia's relevant files. Moreover, he often contacts Jiang Xia and searches for these in the database. He has good reasons and does not have to worry about people who regularly check the backend records becoming suspicious.

The page refreshes and a window pops up soon.

Amuro clicked on the information page and saw Jiang Xia's past resume, areas of expertise, and some task records displayed on it.

These mission records looked very familiar to Toru Amuro. Especially the recent ones - they were all arranged by him to prevent Jiang Xia from being sanctioned by the organization for being obsessed with solving crimes and overreaching in the organization.

He looked at Jiang Xia's files again.

According to Tohru Amuro's experience, after peripheral members obtain code names, the human resources department will create a new file and add it to the database instead of upgrading the old file.

In other words, the files from the original period of peripheral members will continue to be retained.

Later, if the member is promoted and goes underground, his identity as a peripheral member will disappear with a "death", and his files will be sealed like other dead people, completely turning into a mysterious organization cadre.

And if the identity activities in society are to be continued, the files of that member during the peripheral period will continue to exist for a period of time to prevent interested parties from obtaining information through changes in the files. In the next one or two years, the mission frequency of this "peripheral member" will decrease at a reasonable rate, gradually reducing the sense of existence, and eventually the file will be just a dusty file.

...Although there are such protective measures, Toru Amuro has been in the organization for a long time, and he can still see the changes in the identities of some members from the changes in the frequency of tasks in the files.

But Jiang Xia...

When Jiang Xia first came to his office, Toru Amuro had already investigated this suspicious new employee from both the organization and the police.

At this time, Toru Amuro looked at the organizational file in front of him that was the same as in his memory, and felt that it was difficult to distinguish the identity from the perspective of "changes in mission frequency."

——Although Jiang Xia takes his part-time job and detective career very seriously, his presence in the organization has always been weak from beginning to end.

A few years ago, when Jiang Xia's parents were still alive, Jiang Xia was still young. I don’t know what he went through during training. He seemed to have suffered a big blow and his mentality was always not good.

Jiang Xia's mother was a very talented scientific researcher and had a code name early on. Although she hoped that her son would accept the organization, she still felt sorry for her son, so she often asked Jiang Xia to take advantage of her or her companions' tasks to complete the targets.

Later, Jiang Xia's parents were gone. In Jiang Xia's files, there were more tasks related to Shirley and Gin... This should be because of Shirley - Jiang Xia's mother was her colleague and her lifesaver. benefactor. After Jiang Xia's parents died in the car accident, Shirley seemed to take over the couple's job and became a new task-delivery machine.

...Further on, Jiang Xia said that he didn't want to be a girl's soft rice. At the same time, he felt that he could shine in the detective industry, so he came to him again... Amuro Toru quickly browsed Jiang Xia's mission records and found that there was a gap between these states. , no trace of separation at all.

——Jiang Xia paddled consistently from beginning to end. No one assigned him tasks, and he would not take them on his own. He would accept his fate as if his performance was not up to standard and he would be sent away as cannon fodder... According to this attitude, unless Jiang Xia was already a cadre when he was a few years old, , otherwise judging from the files, he does not have the characteristic of "gradually reducing the frequency of tasks after being promoted to a cadre".

...From this aspect, Jiang Xia is still at odds with Wu Zuo.

If there is any doubt about Jiang Xia's experience, it is that since a few months ago, the number of cases he encountered has suddenly increased, and people have become busier.

Although many high school detectives are like this, but...

The speed of Amuro Toru's scrolling on the phone gradually slowed down, and a sudden thought flashed through his mind, splitting the darkness like lightning.

——If there is a person who can complete the organization's tasks with Jiang Xia's frequency of solving crimes, then his rapid promotion seems to be very reasonable...

Solving the case = mission?

"..."

This idea seems absurd at first, but...

Toru Amuro stood there and didn't move for a long time.

After a while, he seemed to gradually clear his thoughts. He put away the organization's mobile phone, replaced it with another one, and sent a message to his subordinate Yuya Kazami again:

[Look for an opportunity to get in touch with the murderer in the cases Jiang Xia has cracked. Especially those who have killed big shots. Re-examine their motive for committing the crime, what led them to decide to kill, the source of inspiration for the killing method - and whether they had any contact with special people before that]

…

Detective agency.

After Toru Amuro left.

Jiang Xia looked at the door and thought for a moment, then looked away and took out the cat again.

While he was skillfully stroking other people's cats, he was looking through the letters and information that had accumulated in the past few days. At the same time, he was holding his mobile phone and looking for the saved fixed emails in the gap between turning pages, and sent them one by one to the corresponding customers as reminders. They came to get the cat.

Soon, the accumulated information was exhausted. Jiang Xia's luck seemed to have run out elsewhere. During the few days he left, among the letters he received, there were no invitations to enter the murder case from far away.

Jiang Xia sighed, gathered up the waste paper on the table, and prepared to throw it away.

Then he flipped through the newspaper while waiting for customers to come to his door.

Flipping through the pages, my fingers paused and stopped on a certain page.

The accompanying photo in the newspaper showed an arrogant white figure standing on the top of a tall building, against the moonlight, with a cloak flying behind him.

——Kidd sent a notice letter again.
