Toru Amuro: "..."
Although he felt a little tired, his detective instinct was extremely strong, even if he was only a part-time detective.
Although he sighed, he still ran over quickly the next moment he heard the shout.
——It would be easier to find the real murderer if the scene was protected as soon as possible. And the woman who screamed sounded very terrified. If the murderer was still in the same building, she might be in danger if she screamed like that.
Jiang Xia was also a detective in name. He and Amuro Toru ran towards the place where the scream came from.
On the way, he looked at the old Western-style house in front of him and found that he could not sense the breath of ghosts or shikigami from inside, but there were two faint murderous auras.
...Not a particularly attractive reward.
However, since they are just materials lying on the roadside, it would be a waste if they are not used, so why not just pick them up? Putting aside the practicality of the murderous aura, watching them slowly fall off is like picking the fruits of a good harvest, which is very comforting...
…
The two of them quickly arrived at the door of the mansion and pushed it open with a clang.
Then I saw a person running towards me - it was a young woman in a Western dress, her hands were stained with blood, her body was also splattered with blood, in her hand was a dagger that was shining with a cold light, and her face was calm.
She seemed to have originally intended to leave through this door.
Now, as Jiang Xia pushed open the door, the two sides suddenly met. The woman showed a surprised expression and seemed to want to stop, but inertia made her continue to rush forward.
Amuro Toru lowered his eyes and caught a glimpse of the approaching sword light. He instinctively moved in front of Jiang Xia and neatly knocked the weapon out of the woman's hand.
Then he casually swung his hand down and gave her a knife attack.
The young woman, who had no fighting ability at all, was hit badly before she could react. She groaned, closed her eyes and fell to the ground.
Almost at the same time, the door opposite the mansion was pushed open with a clang.
Two high school students heard the shouting about the "murderer" and rushed in.
Their eyes paused on the woman at Amuro Toru and Jiang Xia's feet, but were quickly attracted by something more eye-catching.
——Following the bloody footprints left by the young woman, looking back, you can see a middle-aged man lying in the center of the hall of the mansion.
The man was wearing a kimono and lying silently on the ground. His hairstyle was an old-fashioned topknot, and there was a pool of blood under his pillow.
Jiang Xia looked at the "corpse" and then at the woman lying on the ground at his feet.
He found that neither of the two people had any evil or murderous intent, so he turned his gaze away in boredom and turned to look at the two high school students opposite who came over after hearing the noise.
Upon closer look, I saw that they were two familiar faces.
——Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha.
The two sides looked at each other for a second. Jiang Xia was a little happy to see a genuine detective with an event-oriented physique. He raised his hand and waved: "Long time no see."
Yuanshan Heye was also surprised and waved at him as well. The fear he had felt after seeing the corpse was much relieved.
Toru Amuro raised his head and found that it was someone Jiang Xia knew again. His heart skipped a beat out of habit.
Then he remembered that thanks to Kidd, he no longer had to isolate Jiang Xia from the outside world. Amuro Toru even thought about returning Jiang Xia's phone, but then he thought about it again. When he took Jiang Xia's phone away, he used the organization's mission as an excuse. Now that the mission has not been completed, it suddenly returned, which always felt very suspicious. Moreover, theoretically speaking, Jiang Xia's phone should have exploded with the car.
While heaving a sigh of relief, Toru Amuro looked at Hattori Heiji, a little puzzled: "It's you. Aren't you at home? I remember that at the Twilight Annex yesterday, the maid said that you refused the invitation to go out in order to prepare for the exam."
"It was my mother who refused on my behalf." Hattori Heiji's face darkened when he thought of this.
——After that, he sneaked over despite his mother's objection, wanting to attend the mysterious dinner.
However, some unscrupulous guy had scattered nails on the road, causing his motorcycle to have a flat tire, delaying him for a while and preventing him from going.
However, there is no need to explain these things to someone like Amuro Toru...
Hattori Heiji thought of the messages Conan sent him about "Jiang Xia missing". He looked back and forth between Jiang Xia and Amuro Toru and frowned secretly.
Just wanted to find out the specific situation.
But before he could open his mouth, a resentful voice suddenly came from the side: "How long do you plan to chat?"
At the same time, something moved in the corner of his eye.
The four people were startled and looked over quickly.
In the hall, the "corpse" with the topknot sat up. As he did so, blood plasma from the side of his brain dripped down his cheeks.
Yuanshan Heye looked at the scene of the corpse, was stunned for a moment, then jumped up on the spot with a roar and dodged to the side.
After she finished shouting, she suddenly thought that maybe she had misunderstood.
——The conclusion that "there is a corpse lying on the ground" was actually a judgment they made subconsciously.
In fact, the victim may still be alive after being hit by a blunt object.
It was just because in the past, almost all the people she had seen "bleeding from the head and falling to the ground" died, so she was led by inertia of thinking and came to the wrong conclusion.
"I'm sorry, I thought you were dead."
Yuanshan Heye apologized quietly while secretly pressing two buttons on his mobile phone, deleting a digit from the "110" that he had pressed in advance and almost dialed, and changed it to "119", and said considerately: "I'll help you call an ambulance! You lie down here first and wait..."
“…”
The "corpse" that had just resurrected itself on the ground seemed to want to speak but hesitated.
Finally, he gave up trying to communicate with these strange high school students, turned to an inconspicuous corner of the mansion, and shouted, "Sakakibara! Why don't you yell 'Cut' yet!"
…
Where the "corpse" is watching.
Director Sakakibara was staring at Jiang Xia with his eyes slightly shining, and whispering to the staff next to him.
When his name was suddenly called, he stopped talking, stood up with a smile on his face, rubbed his hands, and came over - he had a good temper, not like a director who was in the middle of filming when strange people broke into the set, knocked out his employees, and had those people standing on his territory and chatting as if no one was around.
However, what should be condemned should still be condemned.
Director Sakakibara looked at Jiang Xia and said, "Although you have good intentions, how can you treat our actors like this?"
He pointed at the young woman who was knocked unconscious by Toru Amuro and carried to the side by several employees.
Then he turned to Jiang Xia and Amuro Toru and said, "We are now short of people... Tell me, what should we do?"
Toru Amuro looked at the inconspicuous filming equipment, and his sleepy brain came back to his senses a few beats late, feeling a little embarrassed.
The door that was pushed open was right between them and the staff. The crew seemed to be extremely short of funds, with few equipment and few people, and a very low sense of presence, so they didn't notice the problem for a while.
