Chapter 688 Gordon’s heart skipped a beat

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Toru Amuro noticed Jiang Xia's movements and also looked at the notebook.

Jiang Xia opened the page in question and handed it to him.

Conan is different from the gangsters of the two organizations. He is a serious detective.

Upon arriving at the scene, he first looked at the body with full concentration.

After taking in all the information that could be observed with the naked eye, Conan straightened up and accidentally glanced to the side. Since the heights were almost the same, he happened to see Jiang Xia's hand hanging by his side. The color of the palm was darker, as if it was stained with...

A splash of blood?!

Conan was startled and subconsciously grabbed Jiang Xia's hand and turned it over to take a look.

The casual glance just now turned out to be no illusion. The stain on Jiang Xia's palm was really blood.

...I had just seen a corpse that had been stabbed to death and covered in blood. When I turned around, I saw blood on the hands of my companions.

"..." He has read a lot of Conan's mystery novels, and actually also watched a lot of horror movies. The scenes in such third-rate horror movies have never scared him once, but this time, he felt a solid thump in his heart.

In fact, it is difficult not to spread suspicion towards Toru Amuro to Jiang Xia. Even if Conan believes that Jiang Xia will not kill people, it is difficult for Jiang Xia not to be affected by Toru Amuro. And Conan remembers that based on the approximate death time of the deceased, that period

At that time, Jiang Xia and Amuro Toru left the hotel.

He looked up at Jiang Xia and blurted out in shock: "You..."

"You have something dirty on your hands!"

Next to him, "Suzuki Sonoko" screamed in surprise. Before Conan could react, he took out a wet wipe from somewhere and took Jiang Xia's hand and gave it a few squeezes.

The blood stains are gone.

Then she took out another bottle of disinfectant from somewhere and sprayed it.

Conan: "..."

He was speechless for a moment because of the speed with which the evidence was destroyed.

But soon, with the interruption of "Suzuki Sonoko", the surprise of suddenly seeing blood stains subsided. After Conan instinctively made a series of assumptions, he had time to follow the process and make assumptions about himself one by one.

Find the loopholes.

Then I realized that I was probably a little nervous just now, and was too influenced by the premise that "Amuro Toru has a problem", so I thought about things astray.

Tohru Amuro is indeed suspicious, and the so-called commission doesn’t sound right no matter what.

But as far as today's events are concerned, if you think about it carefully, after Jiang Xia and Amuro Toru left the hotel just now, the two of them actually went back again and even ordered a table of local snacks as a midnight snack.

Even if Jiang Xia really killed someone, he must have washed his hands before eating. There was no way there was still blood on his hands - the bloodstain was on the palm of his hand that was difficult to ignore when there was light.

Next to him, Toru Amuro glanced at Conan and realized that it was not his illusion.

——This kid is always startled every time he meets him. How does he look like a bad guy?

But on the other hand, this may mean that he did a good job in "Bourbon"?

"It must be the blood stained on it." Toru Amuro shook the notebook Jiang Xia had just given him, "Jiang Xia just picked it up. There are blood stains on the back and on the inside pages. I also got a little on my hands."

As he spoke, he opened his hand and showed it to the others. Sure enough, the blood stain on Jiang Xia's palm just now was in the same place.

Next to him, a police officer at the scene twitched his ears and ran over alertly, grabbing his handbag and saying, "How could you touch the evidence directly?"

Yes, yes. Conan nodded secretly. Jiang Xia used to be a model detective in the eyes of the police, but today he directly encountered the handbook. His intuition was indeed right, something was not right... I hope it was not in that handbook.

It got fingerprints that shouldn't be on it, so I had to use it again to cover it up.

His eyes looked back and forth between Jiangxia and Toru Amuro, and finally landed on Toru Amuro's hand.



Suspicion is suspicion, but there is still an unsolved case before us.

According to Conan's usual behavior, even if Gin puts a gun to his head now, after he is frightened, he will instinctively free up part of his brain to think about the murderer.

In short, since Jiangxia and Toru Amuro don't have any clues for the time being, it's better to think about the case in front of them first.

Just now, when Jiang Xia picked up the handbook and checked it, Conan had already slipped to the body and briefly checked the situation.

At this time, for Conan, the bloody handbook undoubtedly became a new clue.

Unfortunately, it is now in the hands of the police. Even if you put your feet up, you can only see the back...

While Conan tried to raise his head to read, he suddenly remembered - he had seen this notebook before. Before, when the dead assistant director asked them to leave a message, he had shaken this notebook to them and asked them to read the writing on the back.

The word "ホヅミ" should be the pronunciation of his last name.

The police officer holding the notebook felt complicated as he looked at the physical evidence that had been handled by two people.

But think about it, the person who tampered with the physical evidence is a detective, and he doesn’t think this is a big problem...

The police officer sighed and looked at Jiang Xia: "Where was the handbag when you first discovered it? We didn't even see it..."

"There." Jiang Xia turned around and pointed to a place two steps away behind him. "Half of it was buried in the leaves. When I passed by, I felt something wrong with the sound of dead leaves rubbing against the ground. I didn't find out until I looked carefully."

By the way, I provide information: "There are blood stains on the 'April 1st' position on the inside page. It should have been printed by the deceased. You can see clearer lines. You can compare the fingerprints. If this is the case, it may be his."

Some kind of death message."

"Oh." The police officer nodded and turned back to check.

While they were talking, the policeman leading the team came over and asked from a few meters away: "How is it? Did you find any clues..."

Halfway through the words, the voice stopped abruptly.

Followed by a different tone: "Why is it you again?!"

Jiang Xia was startled, then turned around and saw Yamamura Cao - a confused police officer who didn't know whether he was qualified as a police officer, but he was quite qualified as a case attractor.

"Hmph, retribution! So many cases you encountered are retribution!" Yamamura Cao looked at Jiangxia and then at Toru Amuro, remembering that the three of them went to the dark bungalow in the Tougami Forest to look for clues, but these two bastard detectives ended up

He left him and ran away, "You actually left a righteous police officer and ran away alone. No wonder you are unlucky every day!"

"..." Jiang Xia looked at him with a little regret. If the reason for the murder was really like this, things would be simple...

Yamamura Cao suddenly felt a chill on his back and sneezed.

He rubbed his nose, turned his head warily, and glanced at the framing tree that looked particularly gloomy at night. He looked at it for a moment, but found nothing unusual, and finally wrapped his coat tightly in silence.
