Jiang Xia glanced over there: "Maybe he didn't catch any fish, and out of grief and anger, he wanted to come here to relieve his sorrow."
Conan: "..." You are very good at thinking the best of people... Well, it's because of this that Vodka Amuro Tohru Hashimoto Maya can arrogantly hang around you.
...So where did Maya Hashimoto go?
The more Conan thought about it, the more he couldn't help but frown. He tiptoed toward the door, intending to go out and look for it.
But at this moment, a hand took his collar and carried him back to the box.
"I always felt like someone was following me just now." Jiang Xia said, "Although it may be just along the way, you are a helpless child. It is best not to run around alone at this time."
"Why don't you..." Conan was surprised at first, but then came back to his senses: That's right, he could detect the stalker, why couldn't Jiang Xia find it?
But now is not the time to think about this, he has to find Hashimoto Mo as soon as possible...
Before he could walk out of the door, Conan was suddenly grabbed by a pair of iron-like hands.
"Really, didn't you hear what Jiang Xia just said?" Mao Lilan was very conscious of a guardian. When Jiang Xia said that there was danger outside, she immediately grabbed Conan, who liked to fly solo, "Stay here honestly, don't
You must run around!"
Conan: "..."
Suzuki Sonoko was a little excited: "Stalking? Is he coming for us? What is his purpose? What does he want to do to us? - Let's catch the person and send him to the police station!"
Jiang Xia shook his head and sighed: "If you just follow and do nothing else, even if the police come, they won't handle it."
After a pause, remembering some FBI conversations, Jiang Xia smoothly borrowed the other party's guess: "And thinking on the bright side, maybe it's just a fan who wants to ask me for an autograph, but is a little shy - if I rush over directly
I’m afraid it’s not appropriate to arrest people.”
"That's right." Suzuki Sonoko was discouraged after hearing this: In my memory, there were indeed many similar things in the past. Especially when Jiang Xia went to school on exam day, there would always be all kinds of people jumping from every corner from school to after school.
They came out to ask for business cards from him. Some even disguised themselves and asked for them several times a day. They seemed to want to do some business card collecting and stamp collecting. Maybe it was the same today.
"Speaking of which, I remember that when we entered the ktv, Mr. Hashimoto was walking at the back." Mao Lilan also liked to think the best of people, and suddenly she had an idea, "Do you think it's possible that Mr. Hashimoto also noticed it?
In order not to embarrass Jiang Xia, he went out alone to find that person to deal with this matter?"
Conan: "..." This is absolutely impossible. How could Maya Hashimoto be such a good person who sacrifices himself for others... Then again, you were deceived by him anyway!
…
The elementary school detective looked unwilling, but finally succumbed to the absolute power.
Afterwards, in line with the principle that idleness is also idle, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko ordered a few songs and started singing.
"We can't go on like this." Conan has never been a false child who gives up easily. The more obstacles he has, the more motivated he becomes. He clenched his fists in his heart, "I have to sneak out and see what that guy is doing -
As soon as Xiaolan relaxes her guard, I will immediately... hmm?"
I was contemplating a plan to compete with my classmates in a battle of wits and courage, when suddenly, the doorknob creaked again and someone turned it open from the outside.
Several people looked up in surprise and saw Maya Hashimoto walking in with a haggard look and a strange look on her face.
"What's your expression? It looks like you're exhausted." Suzuki Sonoko stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes. At the same time, she couldn't help but wonder: Maybe they were thinking too much. In fact, Maya Hashimoto had nothing just now.
Did you do it just because your stomach hurts and you went to squat?
Maya Hashimoto heard their voices and came back to her senses: "Nothing, um... have you finished singing?"
"Not yet, do you want to sing?" Suzuki Sonoko felt that she had misunderstood the detective assistant, so her attitude improved slightly. She pointed to the singing platform, "Quickly go and order a few songs, and I will jump in the queue for you."
"No need." Maya Hashimoto had no intention of singing. He waved his hands repeatedly, intending to refuse.
And at this moment, suddenly, a scream echoed through the corridor.
"?!"
This familiar sound was like a signal gun, igniting everyone's instinctive reaction.
——Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko were so excited that they grabbed their phones and pressed 110 and 119 respectively on the screen.
Jiang Xia and Conan quickly ran to the door, pushed open the box door, and looked at the place where the sound came from.
Maya Hashimoto... Maya Hashimoto really wanted to swoop behind the sofa and observe secretly before deciding what to do next. However, his reason and mission forced him to grit his teeth, put away his attack, and follow Jiang Xia
He trotted to the door behind him.
Looking up, the situation was slightly better than expected.
There was no horrific-looking corpse in his field of vision - wherever he looked, there was only a frightened front desk boy.
At this time, the receptionist was frozen at the door of a private room, staring blankly inside, muttering: "How...how could this happen!"
…it’s already obvious what to do next.
Jiang Xia came to the front desk who was stunned, looked past him and looked inside the box, and saw a middle-aged man lying on the ground with his head covered in blood.
The man's chest had long since stopped rising, and his upper body covered with blood was covered with a coat. His head was huddled in the coat like a turtle. It didn't look like he accidentally slipped and hit his head, but it was obvious that
of homicide.
After looking at the deceased from head to toe and seeing the features of the man clearly, Conan was stunned: "Isn't this the man who followed us just now?"
Jiang Xia sighed and turned back to look at the two female high school students who did not dare to come over and only stood on tiptoe from a distance: "Call the police. Also, remember to call an ambulance."
——Although the ghosts have been separated and the people are definitely hopeless, it doesn’t matter whether the ambulance comes or not. But as a detective, you still have to go through the process.
…
Although the rest of the investigation can be left to the police, there is one child who simply cannot control it.
Conan first trotted into the box to see if the stalker could still be saved.
After getting a negative answer, he got up regretfully, left the bloody box, and then began to observe the environmental layout of the KTV.
At the same time, Conan stared at Maya Hashimoto quietly, thinking about the possibility of this guy committing the crime - after all, now, from all angles, Maya Hashimoto was the number one suspect in his mind.
Bathed in that sight, Maya Hashimoto felt uncomfortable all over, and at the same time she couldn't help but secretly regret it.
"Isn't it just an ugly song? I just have to endure it and listen to it. Why do I have to run out and hide!"
