Granny Mi nodded and walked into the kitchen.
Others looked for clothes and towels to get rid of the cold rain on their bodies.
Jiang Xia glanced at the kitchen door and was a little concerned - in his impression, Yi Zhilong would tamper with the brewed coffee.
The key to Ilji Takashi's killing method is to use a timed killing device to give himself an alibi.
Before, Ichiji took the opportunity to knock out Reika Mitsui, fixed her in the bathtub with tape, and then used a nozzle to slowly release the water. This way, Reika Mitsui could be covered with water that covered her mouth and nose at a specific time.
Drown.
Ichige Takashi could create an alibi as long as he stayed with others when she died, and then pretended that Reika Yotsui was drowned by the murderer.
In order to achieve this goal, Ichige thought about it a lot and felt that if there was only Nikaido as an example of "being pressed on the head and drowned", it would not be convincing enough.
So he decided to create another example - he planned to drug the coffee, pour the drug on a random person, and then push the unlucky guy into the water and submerge him once.
In this way, others can get testimony such as "I was held on my head and drowned" from the drowned survivors.
Jiang Xia thought of Ilji Takashi's trick and thought it wouldn't work.
Although if you want to prevent Iljitaka from retreating, it is best for him to successfully drown people and deceive them into testifying.
But flooding is difficult to control.
Ichiji Takashi is not an experienced murderer. If he gets nervous and the drowned person is unlucky enough, that person may even choke to death in a short time.
Jiang Xia counted: there are currently nine people present. Excluding Ichitaka, who knows exactly which cup of coffee contains medicine and will definitely not fall into the trap, there are eight left.
Among these eight people, Jiang Xia, Mao Lilan, Conan, and Suzuki Sonoko account for half of them. The possibility of being randomly selected is not small...
Jiang Xia thought for a while and felt that something as dangerous as flooding would certainly not be allowed to be done by his precious classmates with event physiques. Of course, neither could the precious body.
Fortunately, this matter is not difficult to solve - for Jiang Xia, who has several spies, he can easily distinguish which cup of coffee the drug was drugged in. And there was only one cup of coffee that was drugged.
In other words, as long as one person is 100% infected, the others will naturally be safe.
As for the candidates to block the gun...Jiang Xia thinks that his immortal puppets are very good.
Now, the coffee in the kitchen has not been brewed yet. There is still plenty of time to start the operation.
With this thought in mind, Jiang Xia sat on the sofa and chose a deserted place to disperse the shikigami, letting the puppets gather there and prepare to grab coffee.
…
After Conan went to the bathroom, he met Rokuta Shoji and received some towels for wiping the rain.
He returned to the restaurant and distributed towels to his companions. When they were sent to Jiangxia, Conan looked up and felt a thump in his heart - here he is, in this autistic state of losing his soul again.
Did the corpse by the pool just now have such a big impact on Jiang Xia? Is it because the deceased this time was a man? Compared to the black sister in the bathroom last time, Jiang Xia was more deeply disturbed.
?
Conan sighed inwardly.
Damaged vehicles, water, and even explosions... These are elements that often appear in homicide cases in Tokyo. A situation like Jiang Xia's will undoubtedly be a hindrance in many cases.
Thinking of this, Conan suddenly felt that a certain sentence made sense - indeed, when God opens a door, he will close a window.
From this point of view, even if he is a god, facing Jiang Xia who seems to be cheating when solving the case, he can only use physical discomfort to restrict him...
Having said that, according to this theory, Kudo Shinichi was tragically reduced in size. Could it be that he was sanctioned by God because of his excessive reasoning?
...In other words, in the eyes of God, "Kudo Shinichi" is on the same level as Jiang Xia?
Conan spread his thoughts and his mood subtly improved.
A second later, he slapped his face. What happened? He actually started to believe in theology...
Conan condemned himself for what he had just done and continued on with his business.
Originally, he wanted to use a towel to drain the water off Jiang Xia's head, but after comparing the height... well, he couldn't reach it.
Conan gave up immediately. He turned to look at Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko next to him, then quickly crossed out Mao Lilan and walked towards Suzuki Sonoko, intending to give her the towel and ask her to help.
But at this time, Suzuki Sonoko let out an exclamation.
Others in the restaurant were startled. They followed her gaze and discovered that there was an additional child in the corridor at some point.
The child hid behind a tall potted plant, exposing half of his body and looking at them, looking like he wanted to come over but didn't dare.
After seeing this scene clearly, others reacted belatedly - Suzuki Sonoko's scream just now was not that she was frightened, on the contrary, it seemed to be a pure surprise.
...This is understandable. Although the strange child behind the potted plant appears at a strange time, his appearance is not at all like the ghost dolls often seen in ghost stories. Instead, he is very cute and makes people fall in love with him at first sight.
.
In the silent atmosphere of "favorability +1", the only one who remained unmoved was Conan.
——He recognized it at a glance. It was not a "cute child", it was a fake child who was suspected of being with Anonymous and could become an adult...or in other words, a tomboy who turned from an adult to a child!
Conan was about to remind Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko not to be fooled by appearances.
As a result, before I could make any sound, a gust of wind blew past me.
When Conan came to his senses, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko had teleported to the child.
While they asked softly about the child's condition, they reached out eagerly to pick him up.
In fact, before approaching, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko were worried about scaring this strange child and did not want to reach out. Instead, they planned to talk warmly and get close to him first.
But for some reason, as soon as they ran to Jiang Xia, who was wearing a puppet, the two of them couldn't control their hands.
Conan's expression changed: "Don't hug him, he..." He is a smaller adult!
...but I can't say it.
Otherwise, your vest will definitely fall off as well.
When Conan's words came to his lips, he could only swallow them back.
