Chapter 116: All this is too heavy for Jiang Xia. Please give me a monthly ticketヾ(●｀●)
Jiang Xia caught the keychain before it fell to the ground and handed it to the stiff Qingdao Quandai.
Miyano Akemi lay on Jiang Xia's wrist and breathed unfriendly at the woman. Jiang Xia remembered that this was a trendy language she had recently learned from a client's cat.
When the entire Qingdao team saw Jiang Xia approaching, they shrank back slightly.
But she soon realized her own gaffe, raised her hand again, and took the keychain from Jiang Xia with a dry smile:
"I never thought that Miss Yoko's acquaintance would be right next to me - this feeling is so strange, it's as if Miss Yoko has also descended to my side. I was a little scared, hahahaha."
Then she leaned back in her seat and fell silent.
…
Qingdao Quandai insisted that someone accompany her to pick up her sister because she killed her sister last night and disguised the scene as a "secret room suicide."
And now, she needed someone to discover the body at the same time as her.
The "discoverer" originally selected by Qingdao All Generation was her "future brother-in-law" and also her ex-boyfriend.
However, she didn't expect that the other party suddenly caught a cold and canceled her invitation.
She was getting anxious when Kogoro Mori came over and asked for tickets.
…
At that time, Qingdao Quandai felt that he was extremely lucky and immediately accepted these tools for escaping crime that were delivered to his doorstep.
She thought that Kogoro Mouri, who was able to lose the ticket, must be careless and would not notice her flaw.
As for the other three... Qingdao Quandai took a quick look from a distance and found that they were two high school students and a little kid, so they didn't take them seriously - students are usually very naive, so there was no need to worry about being exposed by them.
Who knows now...
Qingdao Quandai was sweating profusely, her hands and feet were cold: the "witnesses" she invited casually were not only detectives, but also two of them... Her eyes went dark, and for a moment, she wanted to faint and escape reality.
But unfortunately, the body can't be kept for too long. If you miss today, it will only be more difficult in the future.
Qingdao Quandai: "..." Besides, who says that a detective can definitely see through her plan? She is different from those stupid criminals. As long as she stays calm and doesn't panic, she will definitely succeed!
The entire Qingdao generation secretly clenched their fists.
…
In a strange atmosphere, Kogoro Mouri drove to Qingdao's home.
This is a single-family house.
Qingdao Quandai welcomed the four people into the house, asked them to sit in the living room, and then he left at a trot, making an excuse to go find his sister.
Jiang Xia walked into the living room and looked around casually.
There are posters everywhere, even on the ceiling. There are pairs of albums and photo albums in the cabinets, and some creased cardboard boxes are stacked next to them. It looks very lively, like the home of a pair of star-chasing sisters.
He looked around and told others with his actions that he had collected clues.
…
Finally, Jiang Xia stopped beside the coffee table.
In the corridor outside, there was a sudden scream and the sound of hammering on the bathroom door.
Qingdao Quandai shouted anxiously: "Meicai, open the door! I know you are inside, open the door quickly!" As he spoke, he began to cry.
This change of mood was originally in Qingdao Quandai's script.
But at this moment, when she thought of the two detectives so close to her, and herself having to fight with the famous detective, her crying couldn't help but carry a bit of truth.
…
A group of people reacted quickly to the scream and rushed over.
When I reached the bathroom door, I saw Qingdao Quandai twisting the door handle hard and pulling the door with a bang.
The frosted door shook slightly but did not open, as if it was firmly taped from the inside - through the frosted glass, one could see that the four sides of the door were covered with light yellow tape.
At the same time, a few large words were taped in the middle of the glass door: Goodbye.
Maori Kogoro was surprised and asked: "What's going on?!"
Qingdao Quandai wiped away tears: "I couldn't find Meicai anywhere, and then I found that the bathroom door was a little strange. I took a closer look and saw these... She must have taped the door shut from the inside, and I couldn't open it..."
Maori Kogoro looked at the helpless woman in front of him with tears in her eyes and comforted her: "Don't worry, it's just a door, we can just break it open together."
"Yes! Thank you for your help." Qingdao Quandai leaned against the door lock and nodded vigorously. The corners of her lips covered by her hands showed a smile of success - the "secret room" was about to succeed.
But before he had smiled for a second, a hand suddenly reached out from the side.
Jiang Xia gently pushed her aside, revealing the door handle that she had blocked behind her. Then he twisted and pushed the door handle.
With a creaking sound, the "sealed door" slid open a gap easily.
Jiang Xia continued to push the door open, and at the same time, he looked at the door frame in a procedural manner: "The tape is not firmly attached. It seems that the person who attached it just loosely attached the tape to the door and then closed the door... This is a fake secret room."
"..." Qingdao's entire generation's smile froze on their faces.
The only lucky thing was that no one noticed her at this time.
——As the bathroom door slid open, the scene inside was revealed to everyone. There was a pool of blood in the bathtub, and a long-haired woman was kneeling beside the bathtub, her left hand hanging weakly in the water, and her right hand was holding a bloody knife. She looked dead.
Ran Mouri and Conan were stunned and suddenly had a strong sense of déjà vu. They turned to look at Jiang Xia at the same time - a year ago, when they found something wrong and broke into Jiang Xia's house, the scene they saw was almost exactly the same as now.
Jiang Xia didn't notice the looks between the two.
He saw Kogoro Mouri rushing into the bathroom, so he took out his cell phone and followed him, intending to call the police when Kogoro Mouri said sadly, "The person is dead," to save time.
But just after taking a step, Mao Lilan, who was frozen beside him, suddenly shuddered. She raised her hand with lightning speed, turned around, and rushed Jiang Xia from the door to the outside of the house like a gust of wind, and then pressed him against the wall on the same side. From here, the scene in the bathroom could not be seen at all.
"..." Jiang Xia looked up at Mao Lilan, a little confused. This strange wall-dong posture... Was she possessed by the second-year Suzuki Sonoko? "What's wrong?"
Mao Lilan looked particularly nervous and whispered, "Don't... don't look."
Conan also looked serious: "Leave this matter to us."
Mao Lilan nodded subconsciously following his words.
After ordering, she suddenly felt something was wrong. She lowered her head and looked at Conan, suspiciously asking, "Why are you..."
