Chapter 100 Please Spoiler Slowly
Jiang Xia noticed that Conan was not in a good state, but did not care.
No matter how angry Conan is, he won't really kick someone to death. But he might kick someone to bring out some murderous intent...
The coffee on the tray was ordered by Eri Kisaki.
Jiang Xia walked to her table and put down the cup. Fei Yingli raised her head and was slightly startled when she saw him.
Jiang Xia nodded at her and greeted her: "Eri...hello, sister." Since she had always called Kudo Yukiko "sister" before, then since Kisaki Eri is the same age as Kudo Yukiko, she should also be called that.
Otherwise, if one day I meet these two mothers of my peers at the same time, one calling me sister and the other calling me auntie... I always feel bad.
Conan heard these words sharply, turned around and looked at Kisaki Eri in shock.
Kisaki Eri didn't notice anything unusual about the child sitting next to her.
She recognized Jiang Xia and said in a good mood, "Long time no see." She did not correct Jiang Xia's way of addressing her.
…
The two chatted briefly.
At this moment, Jiang Xia's peripheral vision moved, and suddenly he saw Conan leave his seat and tiptoe towards the door, as if he wanted to slip away.
“…”
Jiang Xia said goodbye to Kisaki Eri with a smile, then walked over quickly and captured Conan who was trying to escape and brought him back to the store - she had finally met a classmate with a strong physique who was involved in this incident, so how could she let him go easily.
"...Let me go! I really have to go." Conan struggled to whisper, "I suddenly remembered that I haven't done my homework today."
Just now, when Conan heard Jiang Xia calling out the name "Eri", he finally understood why his first impression of the "aunt sitting next to me" was "scary" even though she was so pretty.
——He was quite naughty when he was a child, and was often scolded by Kisaki Eri by holding his ears.
And now, with the appearance of Eri Kisaki, it is clear who the "important person" that Ranjo Mori is talking to is. Conan feels that he can leave without any worries.
...But Jiang Xia didn't let go at all.
The shop owner heard the noise and looked over here.
When he found out that Jiang Xia was trying to stop the children from running around, not only did he not stop the new clerk, he also gave him an encouraging look with satisfaction.
…
Conan was small and weak, and was dragged back to the store unwillingly.
He didn't understand why Jiang Xia didn't let him go. After thinking for a while, he could only reluctantly attribute it to the fact that Jiang Xia might also be afraid of Kisaki Eri, so he wanted to force a brother to come... But Jiang Xia was quite well-behaved when he was a child, and Kisaki Eri never scolded him...
Just as I was thinking about it, a terrified scream suddenly came from the bathroom.
Conan was startled and looked over. Almost at the same time, Jiang Xia seemed to be attracted by the scream and let go of his hand.
The two ran to the bathroom one after the other.
When I got to the door, I saw the playboy who came to the toilet slumped on the ground. He pointed at the toilet cubicle in horror, trembling and unable to speak.
Jiang Xia and Conan looked in the direction he pointed and saw a large pool of blood slowly flowing out of the door of one of the closed compartments.
…
Everyone else in the store was also alarmed.
Kisaki Eri frowned, put down her coffee cup, and followed.
Originally, she wanted to come and see what happened and observe the crime scene.
However, for some reason, when she stood next to Jiang Xia, Kisaragi's gaze unconsciously turned to him.
She raised her hand to remove the thread stuck on Jiang Xia's back, and wanted to pat him to tidy up his clothes. But at this moment, Conan suddenly rushed towards the bloodstained cubicle, and Kisaki Eri was startled and stopped.
Jiang Xia noticed what Hibiki Eri did, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. In his impression, middle-aged mothers in this world were indeed so warm and friendly. In comparison, Hibiki Eri's reaction was relatively calm.
…
As Conan ran towards the cubicle, Jiang Xia followed him.
The elementary school student first pushed the cubicle door, but it didn't open, so he gathered his strength and jumped up, trying to grab the top of the door to see what was inside.
But when he was halfway through the jump, he was accurately intercepted by Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia grabbed Conan by the collar and dragged him aside: "Don't destroy the scene, what if you collapse the door?"
As he said this, Jiang Xia ignored Conan's defense of "I'm very light!"
He tried to push the door and found that it was not locked, but seemed to be blocked by something from the inside.
So Jiang Xia borrowed a mirror from Fei Yingli and reached over from above. He first focused on the bloodstain on the door edge, and then saw the scene inside.
…
In the compartment, lay the corpse of a young woman.
She leaned against the cubicle door, with a large pool of blood oozing from her chest. Her shoulder bag fell beside her, and the contents of the bag were scattered all over the floor, including a blood-stained knife.
—At first glance, it looked like someone had robbed and stabbed her to death in the stall, then the murderer dropped the knife, flipped out of the stall from the top and ran away.
Jiang Xia thought for a moment and nodded: I have seen all the clues, and I can start advancing the pace.
Conan circled around Jiang Xia's feet, constantly saying "Let me see! Let me see!". After urging him a few times, he was successfully mistaken for a naughty kid who was making trouble.
Kisaki Eri sighed and walked forward, carrying Conan outside to prevent the child from being frightened by the corpse or disturbing Jiang Xia from solving the case.
…
In this world, detectives are already well-known, and Eri Kisaki is a lawyer who specializes in case skirting, so she often pays attention to news about cases.
Therefore, Kisaki Eri noticed Jiang Xia's activeness, which is one of the reasons why she was able to quickly recognize Jiang Xia after not seeing him for many years.
In Eri Kissing's opinion, if there were naughty kids making trouble nearby when Jiang Xia was solving a case, it would definitely make solving the case more difficult if the physical evidence or traces were destroyed.
Although Kisaki Eri often dislikes the behavior of some detectives, but today it is Jiangxia... Well, young people need experience, just solve the case if you want to, as long as it is not illegal.
After all, she had read the report on Jiang Xia solving the case.
Jiang Xia was very different from other detectives, he never wandered around, let alone moved evidence. Usually he would just stand next to the body for a while, and he would figure everything out, at most he would unconsciously tug at the corner of the body's pants while thinking.
...In short, apart from the last little flaw, in Eri Kisaki's eyes, Jiang Xia can be regarded as a model detective, which is one of the reasons why Eri Kisaki silently supports him at this time.
…
Conan, who was taken away by Kisaki Eri, looked at the crime scene eagerly.
If it was someone else who was pulling him, he would have definitely run away.
But Conan had been scolded too many times by Eri Kisaki when he was a child, and a conditioned reflex had already been formed. Although he was very eager to solve the case at this time, he could only be like a cat being held by the scruff of the neck, and he dared not run away.
In the end, Conan could only sigh sadly.
"..."It's bad enough that he can't solve the case faster than Jiang Xia, but now he can't even take a look at the scene and enjoy the fun of reasoning. What a horrible world.
However, after seeing the customers in the store, Conan quickly became alert again - although he couldn't see the crime scene... he could observe the suspect! Maybe from this angle, he could find the murderer faster than Jiang Xia...
…
Kisaki Eri brought Conan into the hall and saw several policemen walking in. The one leading them was Inspector Megure, who was also an old acquaintance of hers.
Kisaki Eri nodded and greeted Inspector Megure, then let Conan go.
Conan happily gained his freedom.
He stared at several customers who had entered the bathroom before the incident and was about to approach them one by one to ask questions.
But at this moment, Jiang Xia just came out of the bathroom.
When Inspector Megure saw Jiang Xia, he wanted to say, "It's you again"... But he had said this sentence too many times and was tired of it.
So I temporarily changed to a synonym: "Has the murderer been found again?"
"Yeah." Jiang Xia nodded. "Although some details have yet to be confirmed, the murderer should be Mr. Tenyama." As he said that, he pointed to the regular customer who was sitting next to the bar and had been chatting with the boss.
Dianshan Shisan who was pointed at: "..."
Conan, who had just walked up to the first suspect and had not had time to talk to him, said: "..."
He stopped expressionlessly, took out his little notebook, and wrote a few words on it: Noise-isolating earplugs.
...Next time if he encounters a murder case, he will definitely put on his earplugs the first second he sees Jiang Xia.
No matter who advises you, it’s useless!
