Conan's Corpse Picker

Mio Tokiwa felt the awkwardness in the air.

She smiled and inserted into the conversation between the two, and introduced the drunk man to Jiang Xia and the others: "This is a councilor from Nishitama City, Mr. Oki Yansong—this building can be built thanks to his great help."

Hearing this name, Jiang Xia's eyes quickly flashed a flash of enlightenment: "!"

…Speaking of "Da Mu", it seems that he did have a client named "Da Mu".

The wife has a border collie at home. It is a beautiful and clever dog. If it gets lost, it will go straight to the door of the detective office and squat. Every time Jiang Xia opens the door, he can pick it up, which is worry-free.

Councilor Damu was not interested in Jiang Xia, so he didn't notice the change in his demeanor.

Tokiwa Mio has also turned her attention to the next person to be introduced.

She raised her hand to signal the people behind her: "When it comes to 'construction building', this gentleman also contributed a lot..."

This time, before Tokiwa Mio finished speaking, the tall man had already stepped forward.

His hawk-like eyes stared at Jiang Xia, while introducing himself: "I am the designer of this building, Hidehiko Kazama."

After a pause, Hidehiko Kazama glanced at Senator Oki, then at Jiang Xia, and said with a smile: "I seem to have seen you too—you are the detective who was accused by Teiji Moritani of beating someone.

"It's just that there is no evidence for the incident of 'beating people', and no media is willing to report it. In addition, he is a dangerous anti-social criminal. No one takes it seriously. And Moriya Teiji himself...he heard that if the charges are filed, I may need to appear in court to confront you face to face in the future, so I didn’t insist anymore. In short, in the end, the matter is over.”

After recalling the past, Hidehiko Kazama suddenly said inexplicably: "I am a disciple of Teiji Moritani."

Chapter 1003 Organization: Don't You Think, Just Me

After finishing speaking, Hidehiko Kazama looked at Jiang Xia carefully.But seeing the young detective's expression, there was a tinge of innocence in the calmness, as if he didn't take Moriya Teiji's matter to heart, and he didn't show surprise or panic because of it.

On the contrary, it was in a corner that Hidehiko Kazama couldn't see, and Conan was surprised.

Conan: "..." Moritani Teiji...isn't this the one who installed bombs in the park, station, circular line track, and municipal building, intending to use these four deadly checkpoints to fight against the enemy "Kudo Shinichi" and The police came to a life-and-death battle, but Jiang Xia caught him after reaching the second level. After a beating, the unlucky bomber who took the initiative to animate the bomb hiding place?

Thinking of this, Conan gradually became alert.

People like Teiji Moriya actually have apprentices: It is said that many masters and apprentices are as close as father and son, and apprentices often inherit the ideas of the master.If I remember correctly, Moriya Teiji's philosophy is "perfect symmetry, blowing up the asymmetric black history of his early design".

And now the twin buildings are obviously asymmetrical.If Hidehiko Kazama wants to blow it up too...

Conan mingled among a group of guests, frowned at Hidehiko Kazama, and secretly became vigilant.

Hidehiko Kazama's back felt cold, and suddenly "Ah Choo" sneezed.

He rubbed his nose through the handkerchief, and his expression became a little bewildered: the temperature in the banquet hall is suitable, how could he suddenly feel cold.

But that feeling of hair on the back comes and goes quickly.Kazama Hidehiko didn't pay much attention to it, taking it as his own illusion.He refocused his attention on the guests invited by Chairman Tokiwa.

Seeing that he didn't scare Jiang Xia, but made the other people look bad.

Hidehiko Kazama spread his hands, and changed the topic: "However, don't worry, although this twin building is high on one side and low on the other, it is very asymmetrical, but I will not blow it up - I am a businessman, not as ambitious as Master , not to mention OCD, I think the building is beautiful and doesn't need to be rebuilt. Hope you guys have fun today."

Jiang Xia: "..." You don't think it's useless to blow it up, because there is a group of unreasonable but murderous men in black who want to blow it up...

As he thought about it, he nodded and perfunctorily agreed: "It's really beautiful."

……

The children were not interested in the conversations of the adults, and they didn't want to review the details of Jiang Xia's beating with Kazama Hidehiko.

Their attention has quickly moved to the other side of the banquet hall.

——There is a huge floor-to-ceiling window, the window frame is like a picture frame, which just fits in the distant Mount Fuji completely, which is very beautiful.This angle is probably designed in advance.It is no wonder that this floor is specially chosen as the banquet hall.

The three children quietly walked to the window, looking at Mount Fuji with shining eyes: "It's so beautiful."

Appreciating the magnificent scenery, Ayumi suddenly remembered that the other side had also installed floor-to-ceiling windows: "I'll go over there and have a look!"

"Let's go too!" The two little boys who had just been fascinated by her "ten years later" beauty also ran over after her.

Secretary Sawada Chinami followed them dutifully to prevent the children from getting lost.

As soon as she got to the window on the other side, she heard Bumei mutter curiously: "What is this? It's like an egg shell buried in a building."

"?" Chinami Sawada looked out the window on the other side and saw the roof of Building B.Building A of the Twin Towers in Nishitama City where they are now is higher than Building B.

Chinami Sawada smiled and said patiently: "Building B next door is a commercial building, and the lower floors are shops. The top is a hotel. There is also an indoor swimming pool on the top floor—the 'eggshell' roof you mentioned." , In fact, it can be opened, when the time comes, the swimming pool on the top floor will become an open-air swimming pool, and you can enjoy the night sky while swimming.”

"Wow--"

The children's eyes are brighter.

……

Possibly because of the interference of the sight with three small children.

At the same time, the drunk Damu Yansong also cast his gaze in the direction of Building B.

He hiccupped and looked at Chairman Tokiwa: "Hey, I'm not going back tonight, make arrangements for me, I want to stay in the hotel in Building B."

Mio Tokiwa was taken aback, and reminded him in a low voice: "The opening ceremony of the building will be next week, and the business will start at that time."

Councilor Oki squinted at her and sneered: "That is to say, you won't let me live?"

"..." Tokiwa Mio listened to his difficult tone, and sighed in her heart: When she introduced it to the guests before, she did not exaggerate. This building was able to be built, indeed thanks to Councilor Oki - Nishitama City According to the regulations, it was originally not allowed to build a building with the height of the Twin Towers.And now, the reason why this building can exist is all thanks to the new proposal proposed by Mr. Oki after receiving bribes.

Thinking of this, Tokiwa Mio bowed helplessly to Representative Oki: "I understand, I will have someone prepare a suite on the 67th floor for you, and you can directly check in at night."

"Haha, that's right. I just like a straightforward woman like you." Councilor Oki laughed and patted her on the shoulder. Alright—let's have dinner together tonight. It's so lonely that only I can appreciate such a beautiful night scene."

Next to them, Master Kisaragi, who is good at painting, was originally looking at Mount Fuji in the distance.

At this time, he heard the movement, followed the prestige, and saw Tokiwa Mio and Representative Oki who were talking in a low voice, and immediately snorted coldly with disdain: "You guys continue to talk, I'll go first."

"Ah, teacher!" Tokiwa Mio seized the opportunity, left Senator Oki, and chased after him, "I'll see you off!"

Master Kisaragi completely ignored her, and left like the wind, Mio Tokiwa also quickly chased after her.

The two passed by Jiang Xia and Kazama Hidehiko, walking towards the elevator one after the other.

For some reason, Kazama Hidehiko became friendly again.

He looked at the scene just now with great interest, and whispered to Jiang Xia next to him: "Miss Tokipan bought a lot of paintings by Teacher Ruyue after she became a teacher. , all of them were resold, so Teacher Kisaragi was not very happy."

Speaking of this, he found that no one echoed his words.

Turning his head, he saw that Jiang Xia was looking away, and the two children next to Jiang Xia, although they were indeed listening to him carefully, their eyes were not very friendly.

Hidehiko Kazama remembered what he said when he said hello just now, squatted down and looked at the two children, and laughed loudly:

"Don't worry—if it wasn't for the big brother next to you, I would still be an apprentice who has to look at the teacher's eyes for everything. In this way, he has actually helped me a lot."

Chapter 1004 Don't kill innocent people indiscriminately

"..."

When Conan and Haibara heard this sentence, they looked at Hidehiko Kazama, and they were indeed not as vigilant as before.But it turned into a scumbag look.

Kazama Hidehiko: "..." Why are the expressions of these two children so recognizable? Although they are only two first-grade elementary school students, being stared at by them is like being despised by colleagues in the workplace...

When he looked at the two fake children suspiciously.

Jiang Xia's cell phone vibrated.

He glanced down at the screen, walked to the side naturally, and picked up the phone in a corner where no one was around.

Soon, through the receiver, there was a voice of gin mixed with a hint of vigilance: "What are you doing in the Twin Towers?"

"Huh?" Jiang Xia glanced at the phone, hearing the tone... "Are you nearby too?"

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia turned her head and glanced at Hui Yuanai.

It might be because Haibara Ai had a baseball cap on his head just after returning from camping.The short hair that falls to the shoulders, hidden under the hat, is not conspicuous-at least from a distance, it is difficult to associate this child with "Shirley".

Jiang Xia: "..." Qin Jiu probably hasn't found her yet.Think about it too, if he finds out, his voice can't be so calm, how could it carry some abundant murderous aura, maybe someone has already come...

While thinking, Jiang Xia walked to the window and looked down at the building opposite: "Are you preparing to attack?"

"I'm downstairs." Gin heard that Uzo was wondering how he knew he was here.Leaning on the passenger seat of the Porsche 356A, he turned his head and glanced at the front desk, remembering what he saw when he passed by just now, "The front desk secretly took a picture of you and is showing off to the neighbors."

"..." Jiang Xia sighed pretentiously, "There is really no privacy. This is the price of fame."

Qin Jiu: "..." Why does "being a detective" look like he has paid a lot for the organization.Obviously before the organization discovered his value, Wu Zuo had already had fun as a "detective".

He ignored this sentence, remembering that the organization was planning to blow up the building in front of him, and repeated the question just now: "What are you doing in the Twin Towers? - You should know, that is our goal."

"I do know. But isn't it the opening ceremony next week?" Jiang Xia turned around by the window and looked at the people in the banquet hall. "I'll come over to enjoy the scenery while the building is still there. No more, this is out of print—and there are many interesting people in the banquet hall, the owner of this building happens to be my neighbor's classmate."

After listening to this passage in silence, Qin Jiu automatically replaced the word "coincidentally" with "deliberately" in his heart.

He felt that he knew Uzuo's purpose very well, and frowned and said coldly:

"Don't keep staring at Teiji Moritani's disciple, he has no conflict with us. The organization has business to do, and personal grievances are put aside first-if Hidehiko Kazama also 'happens' to blow up the building, it will destroy our relationship Plan. We're not just targeting that building, we're targeting something else."

"Something else" meant Shirley, of course.

The bombing of the building was planned and purposeful, and a net was set up, waiting for Shirley to crash into the net while fleeing.

But if the person who bombed the building became Hidehiko Kazama who knew nothing about it... In case that guy did it before Shirley entered the Twin Towers, Shirley might not come here again.Then the organization will look for a cunning woman who deliberately hides from the tens of millions of people in Tokyo, even hundreds of millions across the country, and billions of people around the world.

In addition, even if the timing of the bombing was chosen correctly, Hidehiko Kazama's bombing of the building might leave a gap, causing the fleeing crowd to be too chaotic, and Shirley fled among them.

Gin was thinking about all kinds of troublesome scenes.At this time, Uzo's serious voice came from the other side of the receiver:

"How can there be personal grievances? Don't worry, I'm a generous person, and I won't get innocent citizens into trouble because of those trivial things... Speaking of which, since you know that Hidehiko Kazama is here, you should also know the banquet hall. Other celebrities here—are there any organized partners among these people?"

Gin was silent for a while: "...No."

After a pause, he remembered the number of celebrities in the banquet hall, and said, "But I've said it many times. Too much action will attract investigations from those troublesome agencies."

Jiang Xia glanced at the phone silently, as if she saw Qin Jiu on the opposite side through the phone: "..." This person is going to blow up the building, and he thinks other people's actions are too big...

But after thinking about it, it is true that every time Gin Jiu tried to explode, he couldn't kill a few people in the end.It's not as good as the detective going on a trip to get rid of it...

As he thought about it, he skillfully said perfunctorily: "Don't worry, I have a measure."

……

the other side.

Mao Lilan was also standing by the window at this time, looking out at the beautiful scenery that was less than a glance away.

At this moment, Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko walked up behind her quietly and called out in a low voice, "Sister Xiaolan."

"Huh?" Mao Lilan turned her head back, bent down, and looked at this clever little boy, "What's wrong?"
