Corpse collector in Conan

Kudo Yukiko quickly caught up and grabbed Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia turned around and looked at her silently.

Kudo Yukiko's eyes wandered, and she explained in a low voice: There are too many people here. I'm afraid of being recognized and causing a commotion. That... She changed the topic guiltily, Why are you still going out in such a cold weather? What commission have you received? Well? I heard from the doctor that you are working part-time as a detective recently?

good question.

Jiang Xia shook his head: I'm going to participate in a variety show with a detective theme. The salary is very high. I heard that if it works well, I will have the opportunity to appear as a long-term guest.

Really... Kudo Yukiko was startled.

She touched her chin and thought about Jiang Xia's words. It sounds like Jiang Xia values ​​​​the salary of this show and is looking forward to becoming a long-term guest.

... Come to think of it, Jiang Xia's parents, who were taciturn, unsociable, and seemingly irresponsible, are gone. So at this age when her son was still using his pocket money to rebel and have a crush, Jiang Xia could only support herself.

Although I heard from the doctor, Jiang Xia has now become a somewhat famous detective. But in fact, most of the cases Jiang Xia solved were accidentally involved and were not entrusted by others. He probably didn't get much entrustment fee.

Compared with working as a long-term guest on a variety show, the income is undoubtedly much higher and more stable...

Thinking of this, Kudo Yukiko looked at Jiang Xia and felt that his appearance was suitable and his professional qualities should be excellent. If you get the guidance of a kind-hearted professional - yes, like her, Kudo Yukiko - it will be a piece of cake to get this job.

Kudo Yukiko looked at Jiang Xia with a burning love in her heart. At the same time, she also had a sense of accomplishment that she was about to shine in her professional field.

She slapped her chest: Leave it to me!

...Huh? Jiang Xia was a little surprised.

Although he had known for a long time that Kudo Yukiko had a lively personality and would occasionally act impulsively, he really didn't expect that she would abduct someone so quickly.

Obviously there are still many follow-up words that have not been used... Is my aura a little too strong?

Jiang Xia secretly lowered his head and looked at himself.

But unfortunately, even for psychics, aura is considered metaphysics, invisible to the naked eye and cannot be quantified. It's just that Jiang Xia heard that everyone's aura has specific properties and will have a greater impact on a certain type of people.

...Now it seems that Kudo Yukiko may just fall into that certain category of people?

While Jiang Xia was thinking, Kudo Yukiko stood next to him, looking more and more pleasing to Jiang Xia, and felt that she had made the right decision - how could the child she watched grow up be frustrated on a mere variety show!

I have to teach Jiang Xia some experience... Well, by the way, it's best to go to the scene again and support the scene.

When a child appears on a show for the first time, parents usually sit in the audience to witness this historic moment. Now that Jiang Xia's parents are no longer here, let her make a friendly guest appearance - Jiang Xia must have what other children have.

Kudo Yukiko kindly tidied Jiang Xia's wrinkled sleeves and asked: Which TV station is it?

Jiang Xia didn't keep up with her, so she paused and said, Rimai TV, that variety show called 'Perspective Detective Agency'.

That's right, I've heard of it. Kudo Yukiko sorted out the key points of similar programs in her mind, pulled Jiang Xia towards the subway entrance not far away, and started to make up temporary lessons.

When she got off the station and saw the subway roaring towards her, Kudo Yukiko had a vague feeling that she seemed to have forgotten something.

When she was trying to recall, she accidentally glanced at Jiang Xia, and her train of thought suddenly deviated.

——By the way, Jiang Xia is different from her. She is a complete newcomer. So when explaining the key points, you need to adapt to the newcomer's point of view... Well, that's right, this must be what she almost forgot.

…

After one hour.

In an empty house a few hundred meters away from the subway station.

The anesthesia wore off and Conan gradually woke up. He looked at the cold hard floor beneath him and then at the circle of hemp rope tied around his body, and was stunned for a moment.

After a moment, Conan recalled what happened before. He sat up suddenly after being startled, and then found that he was in an abandoned kitchen.

Just when he was doubting his life, Conan heard something moving in the living room.

He walked gently to the closed door and looked outside through the hole in the door.

I saw a man in black clothes and a smiling mask in the living room.

Conan thought for a moment and made a calm judgment - he was dressed in black... Well, I am afraid that this person, like Edogawa Fumiyo, was also someone sent by the black organization to arrest him.

In the living room, the man in black acted very strangely, as if he was looking for something.

The man moved from the living room to the balcony, then looked for the bathroom, the master bedroom, and the side bed... Finally, he found nothing and returned to the living room, took out his mobile phone, and made a call.

Seeing this, Conan seemed to understand.

——The Edogawa Fumiyo who kidnapped him was not in the room. Could the man in black be looking for an accomplice?
