Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Unfortunately, Okiya Subaru failed to receive the expectations from his boss.

   He was thinking of other things.

  Okiya Subaru forced a smile: "It's not necessarily the same one, maybe a cat of this color likes to visit... Well, why do you call it Xiao Hei?"

  ——If I remember correctly, "Little Black" is the name Uzo gave to the cat, and Mao Lilan knew it.

  Subaru Okiya: "..." Could it be that Uzo's current status in the society actually intersects with these high school students, so Uzo deceived innocent students with his unconscionable acting skills and became their friend?

   However, the situation seems to be different from what Okiya Subaru imagined.

  Maurilan heard this question and did not answer "Because this is my friend's cat, he said his cat is called this name".

She just smiled embarrassedly: "Because except for the four claws, the whole body is black, so it's called Xiao Hei... Although it's not good to name the cat without authorization, but it often visits various houses. My few All of my classmates have seen it, and it is inconvenient not to know the name, so everyone called it Xiaohei after that."

   Okiya Subaru: "...?" This, this cat actually also visits other people's houses!

  Although I have heard Uzo say it a long time ago, Xiao Hei is a free-range breeder. But I didn't expect it to spread to this extent. Okiya Subaru thought before that the cat likes to come to his house, maybe because he is Uzo's subordinate, this is the only benefit of following Uzo, who knows...

  …

   Okiya Subaru pushed on his glasses, barely suppressing the messy thoughts in his mind.

  ——Thinking about it carefully, maybe Uzo does not only have one cat, but a litter of cats of the same coat color, and let them visit various houses every day to collect information. Then I specially reserved one and contacted my subordinates... Thinking about it this way, it seems to feel a little better.

   However, there is something more urgent than this.

  Okiya Subaru: "..." Uzo cat took him out today and came to this cafe, what was he going to do?

  …

  Subaru Okiya had a bad feeling about the **** warning he received two hours ago and the fact that he was almost taken away by the police as a suspect.

   He couldn't help but glanced at Jiang Xia next to him, suppressing his shock: Fortunately, detectives are born to kill criminals, and with Jiang Xia by his side, at least he doesn't have to worry about being framed and taken away.

   However, try to put in Uzo's perspective...

  Okiya Subaru suddenly realized something.

  ——Wouldn't Wu Zuo have expected his own simple response of "holding Jiangxia's thighs"? ?

   Okiya Subaru: "..." A few hours ago, he just listed Jiang Xia as a life-saving thigh. Immediately following, Wu Zuo's cat came to the door and brought him to this cafe to "meet" Jiang Xia.

   Such a coincidence made Subaru Okiya groan in his heart.

  …What does Uzo want to do?

   Years of rich movie reading experience made Subaru Okiya think of a natural scene:

   The persecuted protagonist struggled to survive under the siege of the terrifying big boss. When he was desperate, he suddenly met a good man who seemed very righteous and willing to lend a hand to him.

   So what happens next?

  According to Subaru Okiya's experience, there is only a 10% chance that "the good guy and the protagonist join forces to defeat the big boss".

   And the remaining 90%, the good guy who seemed to be reliable was suddenly killed in person, the boss let out a sneer behind the scenes, and then everything slipped further into the abyss of despair.

  …

   "Big Brother Okiya, what's the matter?" A voice suddenly floated from the side, "Your face seems ugly."

  Okiya Subaru came back to his senses and found that it was Conan who spoke. Across the table, Jiang Xia was also looking at him with his chin up.

  Maurilan was studying the menu, and only raised his head when he heard Conan's words. She took a serious look at Subaru Okiya, but she really didn't notice that the graduate student seemed uneasy...I don't know if Conan was too keen, or if the child was just casually talking. So he also looked at Subaru Okiya, wanting to hear what he had to say.

   Okiya Subaru sighed in his heart: The child's senses are really keen.

   However, what he was thinking was obviously not easy to say.

   So Okiya Subaru followed Conan's question and changed the topic casually: "It's nothing, I just remembered that a woman was killed just now."

  "!!" Behind the bar, Eiji Katsumura shook his hand. He remembered the corpse of the proprietress that he had hidden in the store, and he almost blurted out the sentence "I didn't kill it!"

   Fortunately, before he spoke, Conan suddenly realized and nodded:

   "I heard Brother Jiang Xia and Sister Xiaolan say that it is your neighbor. My condolences."

   Okiya Subaru nodded absently.

   "..." Eiji Katsumura breathed a sigh of relief, and the heart that had jumped to his throat also sank back: It's okay, it's okay.

  ...Speaking of which, can't this group of people finish talking all at once? They always have to gasp... Riddlers get out of the store quickly!

   He could not wait to kick these guests out of the house.

   But in order to hide the crime, Eiji Katsumura can only bear the humiliation and hang up his business smile.

  He picked up the tray and came to the table of the pesky guest: "Your drink has arrived."

   Then put a cup of juice in front of Conan, and put a cup of coffee in front of Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan.

When    retracted his hand, Eiji Katsumura couldn't help showing a sneer because he was standing at the table, in a high position, and no one could see his expression:

   When he brewed coffee just now, he poured countless times more ground coffee than normal. These students had better find it unpleasant to drink at the first sip, and then go to another shop to kill time - not far north along the intersection, there is another coffee shop.

  …

   Katsumura Inshi finished his coffee and left with a tray in his hand.

   He expected his script to work, but he didn't realize that behind him, two pairs of glasses flashed a reflection.

  Conan and Okiya Subaru stared at his back from behind the lens. One was thoughtful, the other didn't know what to think, his eyes fell on the coffee in front of Jiang Xia, his pupils trembled slightly.

   Jiang Xia also glanced at Katsumura Eishi and sighed inwardly.

  ——Maybe there are too many of them, and this "store manager" didn't even have the thought of "killing all these people with poison!" It's disappointing.

   While thinking, Jiang Xia reached out and touched the cup.

  The coffee was not hot, but warm - the "store manager" didn't seem to want them to stay for too long, so he deliberately adjusted the coffee to a temperature that could be eaten directly.

  "..." Being idle is also idle, Jiang Xia hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand to the coffee cup, intending to taste the super bitter coffee that is exclusively for the legendary tough guy, how bitter can it be.

   But before touching it, there was a sudden clanging sound next to it.

  ——Okiya Subaru accidentally knocked over the water glass, and a handful of water was just thrown in front of Jiang Xia and sprinkled into the glass.
