President Ohara, who had just left the table, returned to his seat at some point.
He accidentally spilled some water in the cup and wanted to find a handkerchief to dry it. However, he searched for a long time and couldn't find the handkerchief.
After a while, President Ohara seemed to remember something, slapped his forehead, and walked to the bathroom again - he forgot his handkerchief in it.
Ohhara passed by Conan and Subaru.
The two men with glasses turned around subconsciously and glanced at Ohara Yu's back with different thoughts.
At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the side.
Conan and Subaru were startled, and looked around. They saw Mao Lilan didn't know what she had seen, with a frightened look on her face. She yelled in this direction: "Run!!"
While speaking, Mao Lilan stood up suddenly.
At the same time, Jiang Xia, who was sitting further outside, had pushed away the stool and ran over quickly.
Subaru's heart skipped a beat as he realized that something had happened. While panicking, he felt a kind of calmness in his heart that said, "Sure enough, it's true." Before his heart beat, he was suddenly pushed heavily on his shoulder by Jiang Xia, who was running closer. Conan next to him was also pushed by Jiang Xia.
Throwing them out at the same time, the two Zhan Wu Zha fell into a ball and rolled out on the ground.
There was a loud "boom" behind him, so deafening that the whole cafe seemed to shake.
"?!"
Subaru Chong Shi covered the head he hit, got up from the ground, and looked back.
Then I was shocked to find that half a truck had actually crashed into the cafe.
"……"truck??
…
A truck slid down the slope and slammed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The small half of the cafe was reduced to rubble.
The hardest hit place was the table where President Ohara and Toru Aida were sitting.
President Ohara just went to the bathroom to look for a handkerchief and escaped.
But Toru Aida, who was trying to find a new job to pursue his ambitions, happened to have his back to the window, so he didn't see the truck at all and didn't have time to hide.
At this time, his hand was exposed from the gap between the truck and the broken bricks. It was pale and feeble, and it was already the hand of a dead man.
In addition, next to him, under the ruins, another human figure was vaguely revealed.
——More than one person was hit by the truck.
Chong Shi Subaru was suddenly stunned - the store manager and Ohara Yu were far away from the window, one was at the bar and the other was in the bathroom. Although Mao Lilan was still at the table, he was also not close to the window. The rest of him and
Conan is fine, so the second victim...
Jiangxia——!!
...Damn Wu Zuo!
Subaru couldn't help but punch the ground: Wu Zuo actually attacked the detective!!... No, that position was actually more like hitting him and Conan, but Jiang Xia reacted too quickly...
The guilt that washed over Subaru's heart surged up like a tidal wave.
He ran over quickly, trying to dig his benefactor out of the rubble and shake himself to see if he could be saved.
He held a large piece of the building on the ground and was about to lift it up when someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder and handed him a pair of gloves: "Wear these, it will be more efficient and less likely to scratch."
"Thank you."
Subaru took it and was suddenly stunned.
A second later, he turned around and looked at the person who was putting on another pair of gloves and reminding Mao Lilan to call the police for an ambulance. He instinctively ducked back and almost ran into the ruins: "Jiang Xia?!"
…
Jiang Xia said "huh?" and before he fell into the ruins, he grabbed Chongshi Subaru by his collar and pulled him out.
At the same time, he asked in surprise: "What's wrong? It's like seeing a ghost."
Chong Shi Subaru: "..."...Aren't you a ghost?!
Conan also got up from the ground. While looking for his glasses, he looked at Subaru Chongshi and became suspicious again: I always felt that something was wrong with Mr. Chongshi. The "spit" just now was really just an excuse, right? - Chongshi
Shi Subaru seems to be very sure that "someone wants to harm Jiang Xia." Just like the last time he reminded Jiang Xia about the "sniper attack" in the Twin Towers.
...who is this person?
…
While Conan was secretly observing, Subaru gradually came back to his senses.
After all, he is still a highly educated materialist, and Jiang Xia has feet and shadows. When he steps on the broken wood, the wood does dent slightly, and he can reach out to lift him. No matter how he looks, he is a real living person.
.
But, in this case, where did the extra corpse come from?
It was clearly noon when the sun was shining brightly, and there was a detective who was trying to ward off evil spirits standing next to him. Subaru couldn't help but feel the hair on his back.
…
Jiang Xia seemed to have the same question. But soon, he discovered the problem.
He leaned over and touched the two hands stretched out from the ruins: "Both of them have no pulse. But this extra person...has been dead for a short period of time."
As he spoke, he lowered his head and glanced at the bench next to him, with a clear look in his eyes: "The bench here is hollow and can double as a locker - it seems that it was broken when the truck crashed in just now.
There is a bench here, so the body inside also fell out."
When Mao Lilan heard Jiang Xia's words, she got goosebumps all over her body. She hugged her cell phone tightly: "Officer Zuoto, come quickly! We found two more deceased people near the accident in the morning. I will send you the specific address right away.
!”
While she was talking, she suddenly felt a shadow leaping past her, moving as ethereal and as fast as a ghost.
"ah--!!"
Mao Lilan was startled, instinctively picked up the stool at hand and threw it hard.
"Winter" sounded muffled.
Hideshi Katsumura, who was running away, was unfortunately hit accurately. He rolled his eyes and fainted on the ground.
Jiang Xia glanced at him and found that there was no murderous intent in him, so he withdrew his gaze indifferently.
…
All the dust has settled.
Except for President Ohara who was huddled in the corner and did not dare to speak, the remaining few people were all people who had never seen death.
Panic returned to panic, and after confirming that it was not a ghost, the group of people quickly calmed down.
Subaru Chong finally linked up the suspicions he had discovered earlier: "It seems that the acting store manager killed the store manager and then hid the body in the store... No wonder he always sneered sinisterly just now and even brewed the coffee on purpose.
It's so strange, it turns out I want to drive you away."
…
Once you figure out the "corpse that appeared out of thin air", the rest is nothing to be afraid of.
Jiang Xia looked at the cracked front window of the truck: "No one was in the car. It seems that it slipped down the slope... The store was hit like this, so it may not be safe. Let's get out first."
With that said, he picked up the fake store manager who fell unconscious and went outside with the others.
As soon as I reached the street, I suddenly saw a person running down the slope from a distance.
That man must be the driver of the unlucky truck. He was wearing an ordinary cargoman's uniform, but his exposed forearms had bronze skin that was very different from ordinary people. His figure... seemed a bit familiar.
