1739 [Bourbon: Don’t mention the river]

Even if the video can be manipulated, as long as you ask the courier about the situation, you will know whether the video was shot last night.

The Mumu Police Department had no choice but to leave the suspect behind for the time being: "Confirm with the courier company!"

The police officers were busy running around, and outside the inquiry room, Yoko Kinoshita secretly took out her mobile phone.

Jiang Xia looked curiously and found that she was writing something in the memo.

Spotting Jiang Xia's sight, this star who has recently become interested in the detective industry explained in a low voice: "Based on experience, this kind of alibi without anyone else accompanying you and relying solely on video recordings is the most unreliable. It's like pasting the identity of the murderer on

on the face."

Jiang Xia: "Well..." Why don't you stop being a star and become a detective instead. Although the accuracy rate is not 100%, you can still be an assistant. And in that case, maybe after a while, "Mr. Yamada" will also

I can't help but come here to work as a detective assistant, buy one, get one free.

Jiang Xia thought about the future when she would be surrounded by rare and high-end murderous aura, and fell into deep thought for a moment.



The police were also very efficient. Not only did they find the courier company, they also found the courier boy who had delivered the courier last night through the courier company.

So Jiang Xia was looking at her experience book with Kinoshita Yoko when she suddenly felt a ball of coffee getting out of the elevator and walking straight this way.

Jiang Xia was attracted by the smell of murderous rage. She raised her head and looked at the door: "..." It's you again. No wonder the courier in the video just felt familiar.

Kinoshita Yoko didn't expect that it was the boss of Jiang Xia's detective agency who came. She was surprised and said: "I thought you were just making excuses when you said you had a part-time job yesterday. Turns out you really have a part-time job?"

Toru Amuro: "..."

He went there to deliver the express because that apartment building was related to the target he was investigating recently. Unexpectedly, the target had no clues yet, but that building was first connected to the murder case.

Jiang Xia also stood up and greeted his boss: "Boss? You have a very full schedule these two days."

An extra pot of coffee came out, and a vein in Amuro's forehead jumped: "...#" Who's to blame for this!

...But thinking about it carefully, it seems that Jiang Xia cannot be blamed no matter what.

Yesterday, he broadcast live for a whole day. In the afternoon, he went to President Takei to investigate the case with Jiang Xia and Kinoshita Yoko. In the evening, he met Ireland by chance. After making an appointment, he went to work part-time at the express delivery company.

Today he went to Ireland for an appointment, but unexpectedly he encountered a kidnapping case at the meeting place. The kidnapping case later evolved into a bombing case... In order to avoid the police and reporters present, he could only go to the river and soak in the water for a long time.

, finally climbed ashore, thinking that everything was fine, but the case by the river involved him again.

Yesterday was fine, but Toru Amuro simply didn't want to recall today's experience.

But if we really want to recall it seriously, apart from the unpleasant things about soaking in the river and almost being bombed, the rest is no different from his usual work intensity. He even got a good night's sleep last night...

Toru Amuro: "..." After all, that bastard from Ireland takes up the most of the schedule.

Jiang Xia didn't do anything, he just kept running into murder cases as usual.

After the review, he had a clear target of hatred. While Toru Amuro made a strong note to Ireland in his heart, he saw that Jiang Xia was no longer unpleasant to him.

He nodded towards the young detective who was troubled by events every day, and answered Jiang Xia's words: "I've been busy recently."

Jiang Xia glanced at him and found that the roots of his hair were still a little wet.

Conan also noticed this, and his eyes suddenly became sharp: How strange, this time is neither early nor late, why does Boss Amuro take a shower at this time?

For a moment, various speculations popped up in Conan's mind, such as how he had to wash off the blood after killing someone, how he had to wash himself after shooting to prevent the smoke from getting on his body, and when he was throwing cement blocks in Tokyo Bay, he was splashed with sea water and had to wash it off.

Rush...Okay, the last one is not very reliable, it is still some distance from the sea.

All the reliable and unreliable thoughts passed by quickly, and Conan finally settled on a picture in his mind: the small mountain auto repair factory they visited not long ago. If I remember correctly, that factory was right next to the river and the warehouse.

It also happens to be next to a river.

Coupled with the wrinkles on Jiang Xia's collar before...

Conan touched his chin: Boss Amuro was really in the warehouse at that time, and then he hid in the water for a while to avoid being searched?

Well, the situation at that time...

Taking advantage of his height, Conan quietly walked closer and took a look at Toru Amuro's hand. Sure enough, he saw some traces of having just been soaked in water. Maybe he took a hasty bath not long after he came out of the river. Until now,

Toru Amuro's fingertips all have wrinkles.

Conan: "..."

In fact, in his heart, this boss Amuro has always been mysterious and secretive, hiding a lot of things, and maybe harboring evil intentions, so it seems suspicious no matter how he looks at it.

But on this matter today, Conan was unusually silent: This boss is a bit miserable today...

Moreover, when the explosion occurred, he did not silence Jiang Xia. He seemed to have given Jiang Xia a hand. He was not a completely scumbag boss. At least he knew how to care for his subordinates. No wonder Jiang Xia was willing to keep it a secret for him.

Conan: "..." However, the frequency with which Mr. Amuro is involved in cases is not normal. What is he planning? Or is there someone else behind the scenes?

Conan narrowed his eyes and stared at Toru Amuro's back, lost in thought.



Toru Amuro: "Ah!"

Jiang Xia looked over and said, "Are you okay?" She stuffed something into him.

Toru Amuro picked it up and saw that it was a packet of ginger candies.

Toru Amuro: "?"

Jiang Xia: "When I passed by the office area just now, a policewoman gave me a small snack. I heard it is to ward off the cold. I gave it to you. You seem to need it more."

The words "Keep the Cold Out" instantly reminded Toru Amuro of that unpleasant fresh memory. His face had completely turned into a bourbon look, and the murderous intent in his body was roaring. Of course, it was not directed at this bag of candy.

, but aimed at Ireland who asked him out, and the dark shadow that might be hiding behind this matter.

Soon he realized another thing: since Jiang Xia said that, he must have guessed what he had just experienced.

The murderous aura emerged silently even more.

Toru Amuro took a deep breath and decided to do something serious to divert his attention: "Why are you here with me?"

Sato Miwako came back to her senses: "Oh, that's it..." She briefly explained the case, "The suspect said that he had been squatting in that apartment from 6 pm to 7 am last night, and last night at 7 am

At around o'clock, he saw you delivering an express. Do you have any impression of this?"
