Jiang Xia discovered this earlier than Mao Lilan.
He pointed the direction to Lu Chi: "We have been here just now - over there is Mr. Chongshi's apartment, and in that direction is the station."
With such a position, although Mao Lilan still didn't understand the way, she at least understood the general meaning: "I see, what a coincidence."
What a coincidence, maybe I'll run into Subaru by chance later.
Jiang Xia also took advantage of showing Mao Lilan the way and looked around.
It's a pity that there are still no traces of Shuichi Akai's appearance.
Jiang Xia: "..." Speaking of which, even if Shuichi Akai is really watching Subaru nearby, the maximum range of the FBI seems to be beyond the sensing range of the ghosts. Unless Shuichi Akai has a particularly strong murderous aura, it will really
It's not that easy to find... Tsk, what a nasty long-range shooter.
But fortunately, now he has a fixed bait - although it looks like it is not very useful, but Subaru has nothing to do anyway, so why not ask him to come over to liven up the atmosphere and exchange feelings?
Very wonderful.
Thinking like this, Jiang Xia's thoughts moved slightly, and on the way to the coffee shop, she sent a message to Ganfanmao, who was visiting the Chongshi Subaru family.
——Maybe when Subaru meets Conan, there will be some strange reactions. Just like when Hattori Heiji met Conan, serial murders tended to happen...
…
a few minutes ago.
Near Acupido Detective Agency.
In an old coffee shop.
"I'm still in business. If you have nothing to do, get out of here." The proprietress stood in front of the bar, casually rolling out the dough for dessert, and said in a cold voice, "Don't delay me in entertaining guests."
Behind her, a man in a suit and leather shoes pushed up his glasses and showed a sneer: "Business? There is not a single customer. Are you entertaining ghosts?" As he said, he glanced at the kitchen counter and said in a disgusted tone, "...You actually took it?"
The waterproof calendar is used as a backing board, but you can’t imagine that it’s strange that someone would come to such a dirty store.”
"Ha, I don't eat it myself anyway, and I don't rely entirely on this to make money." The landlady sneered:
"Have you prepared all the money I asked you to prepare? We agreed in advance that not a penny should be missing, otherwise you won't be able to shut my mouth.
"It's not that simple if you want to change your career to become a teaching assistant at Dongdu University. Once the information in my hand is released, your reputation will suffer. There are more suitable candidates than you - the quota will be determined in a week.
Until then, work hard to raise money."
The man didn't answer, but raised his hand with murderous intent.
——He just secretly reached into the freezer next to him and took out a frozen steak.
As the proprietress' last word fell, Hideshi Katsumura stepped forward, grabbed the steak as solid as a brick, and smashed it down hard.
winter--
Blood spattered from the back of the head.
Hideshi Katsumura looked at the fallen body and pushed up his glasses: "...You forced me to do this."
…
After killing the person, Hideshi Katsumura quickly hid the body, briefly processed the scene, and planned to move it away and dump the body again in the evening.
After doing this, he was about to go out, but suddenly he found a few blood stains on his coat.
"...Tsk." You can't wear this kind of clothes and walk on the street...
Eiji Katsumura had no choice but to stride back behind the counter, take off his coat, and stuff it in the most hidden place, preparing to take it away with the body at night.
After doing this, I just stood up when the wind chime at the door of the store suddenly rang loudly.
——At this damn time, someone actually came!
…
"Let's wait in this store for a while - the uncle just now said that if Mr. Kusukawa or Mr. Noda comes back, he will contact us immediately." A young man's voice came from the door.
Eiji Katsumura's whole body tensed up. He turned around from the bar and saw two high school students and a child walking in.
"..." Hideshi Katsumura breathed a silent sigh of relief: It's okay, it's okay, it's just a few students.
I just heard that a customer came in, and my first reaction was "people from the nearby detective agency are coming". I thought I was doomed. I didn't expect that there is always a way out...
…
After thinking for a moment, Hideshi Katsumura did not leave immediately.
He planned to pretend to be a clerk and deal with these people first - after all, he was at the bar at this time and could no longer pretend to be a "passing customer". It would be suspicious to insist on leaving. And if he left, these people would
It would be troublesome if a student accidentally digs out the body.
Eiji Katsumura: "..." Just now, the high school boy who just came in said he just came in and "wait a minute."
In this case, they will probably only order some drinks and desserts. They are all stocked in the refrigerator and can be simply processed.
Eiji Katsumura quickly cleared his thoughts and showed a natural smile: "Welcome!"
At the same time, taking advantage of the dim light at the bar, he used his body to block the blood-stained parts, quietly covered them, and wiped them clean.
…
When Hideshi Katsumura turned around with the menu, he happened to meet the eyes of the three new customers.
Jiang Xia saw the man coming out, looked at him casually, and suddenly said thoughtfully:
"The store seems to smell like blood."
Mao Lilan tiptoed into the small kitchen inside the bar and said with a smile: "You detectives are too sensitive to these things. This cafe sells main meals, and people in the shop should be cooking - I usually cook and cut meat.
It also smells of blood."
Although it made sense, when Conan heard what she said, he couldn't help but correct the detective: "You need to be more sensitive to break the case - there have been cases of using frozen meat as a murder weapon before, and kitchen meat may not be harmless.
"
Hideshi Katsumura's hand holding the menu shook silently: "!"
...What are these three people talking about!!
Coincidence, it must be a coincidence... Speaking of which, that young man is actually a detective?
Hideshi Katsumura's heart had begun to tremble, but he could only try to maintain a business smile on his face.
——Hold on, what happened to the detective?
The detectives always wait until they see the corpse before they start to crack the case. But now, the corpse is still well hidden, so there is no big problem. Let's focus on getting these people away first, and destroy as much physical evidence as possible - such as the piece used to smash it.
Boil the boss lady's frozen meat, chop it into pieces, and stuff it into the cake. Who would have guessed that it was the murder weapon?
…
When Hideshi Katsumura comforted himself in his heart.
Next to them, three young people were still continuing the conversation.
"Indeed, I have heard of similar eucalyptus."
Jiang Xia walked to the table and sat down: "Ice, frozen meat, and other materials made from ice. Such weapons can completely change their shape once they are boiled. Some murderers even eat the physical evidence directly into their stomachs.
Destruction - At first, these tricks were really hard to guard against, but now there are so many similar methods that they are no longer so new. It’s just that obtaining evidence will be more troublesome."
