Conan: "..." Why did Jiang Xia's incident physique suddenly become so strong? In my impression, there weren't many murder cases around him before.
After thinking for a moment, an idea suddenly popped into Conan's mind - he remembered what older people like to say, "People who have experienced a near-death state will open the door to 'that world' and be haunted by evil spirits."
” and the like.
The hairs on his back stood up instinctively. But soon, Conan silently hit his head.
...What are you thinking about? You must believe in science.
And even if there is really a ghost... Jiang Xia's near death happened more than a year ago, but he suddenly became involved in cases a while ago, after Kudo Shinichi was tragically brought down by the black organization.
Thinking of this incident, Conan's thoughts, which had just returned to normal, couldn't help but deviate. He remembered those nonsense reports like "Kudo Shinichi died unexpectedly, and his soul unwillingly possessed his classmates" when Jiang Xia had just started to become famous.
"..." So, superstition is really necessary. Isn't Kudo Shinichi still alive and well?
Conan lowered his head, looked at himself, and looked at Jiang Xia subconsciously.
Then he was slightly startled and found that Jiang Xia looked a little strange, as if he was surprised about something.
"?" Conan was a little confused and looked around carefully again.
By this time, they had approached the tree.
Conan raised his nose and sniffed. When he got so close, there was indeed a vague smell close to that of a corpse, but it was very light and intermittent. It was a bit like an illusion.
"..." In the current weather, whether it is meat or corpses, they will not rot too quickly, and it is normal to have a slight smell. Speaking of which, where is the thing that gives off the smell?
…
Jiang Xia raised her head and looked at the tree above her head.
Hui Yuan Ai noticed his movements, followed Jiang Xia's line of sight, and looked up.
There were many branches above the head, with a few scattered dead leaves hanging occasionally, but there was nothing that looked like a "corpse". Haihara Ai also sniffed, but maybe it was because the wind was a little stronger now than before, so she didn't smell anything.
arrive.
While I was watching carefully, suddenly the branch swayed suddenly.
Huiyuan Ai was startled for a moment, then moved his eyes to the side, and found that Jiang Xia suddenly raised his hand and grabbed the tree trunk growing out above him when there was no one else around.
After trying to shake it, Jiang Xia found that it was still strong. With a little force, Jiang Xia turned over and stepped on the strong trunk. Then she climbed up a little more.
Soon he stopped, his eyes fell on a clump of branches, and his eyes paused for a moment.
A lighter color appeared in front of my eyes.
——There was a cat lying there.
The cat's body showed no movement and was no longer breathing. It was probably dead.
And judging from the words on the collar and the color of its fur, this seems to be a mature cat... not the "cooked" kind, but the kind that seems to have been seen somewhere before.
Just as he was thinking about it, something vaguely moved between the cat's chin and the rough tree trunk.
It passed by in the peripheral vision, and Jiang Xia immediately noticed the clue.
He found the thin gloves in his pocket, put them on, and carefully lifted the cat up a little.
The translucent thing suddenly shrank sharply, swooped out from the side far away from Jiang Xia, and jumped off the tree trunk.
The mermaid happened to be floating over there to watch, and when she noticed something falling, she instinctively pounced on it and carried it in her hand.
After looking at it curiously, the mermaid's eyes twitched after seeing it clearly, and she threw it aside in disgust.
Wutian Dog caught it like a pass, also carried it, and looked at it curiously.
Soon, remembering that the master of the psychic medium seemed to be very interested in this thing that exuded the aura of a ghost, Wutian Dog flapped its wings and flew closer to Jiang Xia.
…
Jiang Xia quickly saw this strange new ghost clearly.
Judging from the nature of the feeling...it does look like a ghost fetus.
A normal ghost fetus is usually as big as two palms put together. Xiaobai is smaller than other ghosts.
However, this time the ghost turned out to be even smaller than Xiao Bai, and looked to be about the size of a coin. And judging from its appearance, it turned out to be exactly a cat.
Jiang Xia: "...?"
Can animals also become ghost fetuses?
...This is his first time seeing him.
The new cat ghost was very energetic. After being caught, he was stunned for a while, and then began to struggle bravely.
The dog suddenly jumped on its back in the foggy weather and scratched it. He spun around in the air a few times in a panic, stunned the cat, picked it up again, stretched out his hand, and kept the dangerous cat away from his wings.
.
After that, Wutian Gou sighed while holding the cat, and looked at Jiang Xia eagerly, hoping that Jiang Xia would pick up the cat soon.
Jiang Xia observed for a moment, and then, relying on the branches below to cover it, he stretched out his hand towards the foggy dog.
The scratching of ghosts on people is actually not very harmful. If psychics are not very sensitive in this aspect, an ordinary person may not feel anything at all - in the past, a mermaid was as big as a mermaid, and the bite of him was only a little bit annoying at best.
It's itchy, now this cat is fine.
Jiang Xia was prepared to be scratched and stretched out her hand.
However, as his hand came closer, the cat froze for a moment, retracted its claws, and looked up at him. It was completely different from its attitude when it faced the mermaid and the foggy dog just now.
After a while, it seemed to smell something like "boss smell" or "meal ticket smell". It calmed down very well and even when Jiang Xia's hand came close to it, he stretched out his head and rubbed it flatteringly.
Jiang Xia: "..."
This familiar feeling of dog legs... is indeed the Siamese from Mr. Masuo's house.
——In my impression, a while ago, President Masuo and his accomplices cooperated inside and outside to rob their own branch.
Mrs. Masuo, who is nearly 20 years younger than President Masuo, realized something was wrong and was about to go to the bank to identify her husband, but was silenced by President Masuo in advance - and before that, Mrs. Masuo was actually a regular customer who came to Jiangxia to find cats.
.Her cat is a Siamese with a weird temper.
Masuo’s family had no children. After the case, Mrs. Masuo died, and President Masuo was imprisoned. No one had the conditions to raise a cat. At that time, the Siamese didn’t know if he smelled the scent of a widow, and after Haibara Ai proposed to Jiang Xia
When he said, "If you like cats, why not try to adopt cats?", he started to act cute towards Jiang Xia in a very silly way, and his demeanor was very similar to now.
But at that time, Jiang Xia didn't have one. The cat punched his leg, meowed several times angrily, and left.
Later, the cat was picked up and adopted by President Masao's niece... and then, for some unknown reason, it unfortunately died in this park.
"..." I thought it was quite human before. Maybe it's because its IQ is too high, so it has the chance to become a ghost?
Jiang Xia stretched out her hand and wanted to touch the cat's head.
However, the cat ghost was too small. In the end, he could only poke the whole thing with regret.
