In the days when Conan was in chaos, trying to explain the "prophetic phenomenon" scientifically.
Jiang Xia drove the puppet to the black market and got her new passbook.
The gold coins have been processed. After deducting various commissions, there are still more than 700 million left. The middleman's fees are a bit shady, but after all, this is the first time Anonymous has appeared on the black market, and he has no connections or credibility, so the price is still fair.
…
After getting the money, Jiang Xia thought about upgrading the energy core for the ghost, and took the time to visit museums, jewelry stores, art galleries and other places.
But just like a year ago, I couldn't find what I wanted.
The huge amount of money in the bankbook suddenly became boring.
Finally, Jiang Xia simply went to the green plant market and bought a few potted plants that were not very cost-effective but very beautiful. She had wanted to buy them but had not bought them before.
…
After raising the potted plants until they bloom, Suzuki Sonoko sent a message: [See you at the station tomorrow!]
Jiang Xia was startled. Station?
After thinking for a moment, he remembered. Last time, after the KTV turned into a murder scene, Suzuki Sonoko reluctantly provided another ghost hunter... ahem, a place to visit - the mountain villa her sister bought newly.
…
Sonoko Suzuki is the daughter of the chairman of the Suzuki Foundation.
The Suzuki Foundation is synonymous with "rich people" in this world.
They have so many villas, and the most enviable thing is that almost every one of them has a murder case.
While Jiang Xia was looking forward to it, she also had some doubts.
——The Suzuki family has too many villas, and he is not sure which one had an accident this time.
However, the unknown can sometimes be a surprise.
You'll know the details once you go there.
…
Jiang Xia asked for leave from Toru Amuro in advance.
At noon the next day, he packed his luggage and arrived at the Shinkansen station.
Soon, Jiang Xia found three people traveling with him - Mao Lilan, Suzuki Yuanzi, and the never-absent Conan.
…
Riding in the car is a bit boring.
On the way, Suzuki Sonoko tried to have a long conversation with Jiang Xia, but failed.
——It can be seen that Jiang Xia is trying to chat with her, but they have not yet discovered a common topic between the two, and the chat process is very difficult. In the end, Suzuki Sonoko tearfully decided to stop talking, so as not to cause Jiang Xia's psychological shadow.
To develop sustainably.
Finally, Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan talked about Conan, the child who appeared out of thin air.
Conan doesn't mind being discussed about his life experience by his classmates. Anyway, the life experience of "Edogawa Conan" is all made up.
But seeing Jiang Xia also listening...Conan gradually became a little restless.
Last time, after leaving KTV, Conan felt that his vest was torn off by Jiang Xia.
He originally thought that Jiang Xia would ask him about his shrinkage afterwards, but he didn't. Everything went as usual in Jiang Xia, as if he didn't find anything.
Conan then comforted himself in his heart - even if "Edogawa Conan" and "Kudo Shinichi" looked exactly the same when he was a child, Jiang Xia, as his neighbor, had seen him when he was a child; even if Conan was around the time when Kudo Shinichi disappeared.
, suddenly appeared at the doctor's house; even if Conan is often careless and behaves not like an ordinary elementary school student, but like a generalist who knows a lot, even if...
…
Conan: "..."
...We can no longer deceive ourselves and others.
——Jiang Xia must know that "Conan" is related to "Kudo Shinichi".
As for why he didn't ask... maybe he felt that the two of them weren't familiar with each other and didn't want to pry into the neighbor's secrets.
It may also be that Jiang Xia, as a detective, still cannot accept the ridiculous thing like "adults becoming smaller" that violates the law of conservation of matter, so she is deliberately evading it.
…
But now, Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan suddenly talked about the life experience of "Edogawa Conan" full of loopholes...
Conan couldn't help but worry: If Jiang Xia really came to ask about "getting smaller" if the conversation continued like this, what should he say?
If we tell the truth, the topic will definitely involve that terrible organization, which will involve Jiang Xia. As a result, Jiang Xia will become the target of the black organization because she knows too much.
But if you lie... what kind of lie can deceive Jiang Xia?
Conan thought for a moment and suddenly had an idea.
He jumped out of his seat and planned to sneak to the bathroom - maybe his classmates wouldn't see him and wouldn't continue talking about "Conan".
Although escaping is shameless, it is very effective.
…
After walking along the train corridor for a while and out of sight of his classmates, Conan breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the car just stopped, and two people got on the train one after another.
Conan accidentally glanced and saw the person getting on the car clearly, and was startled.
——Those were two very familiar tall men in black.
Conan looked at one of them with sunglasses and a wide chin, and then at the other with a long, straight silver face. His heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and cold sweat ran down his cheeks.
...These are the two culprits who gave him the strange poison and made him shrink!
