Conan’s Corpse Picker

People will never think they have too much money in their pockets, just like an agent will never think they have too many high-quality artists.

And to the female agent in front of him, no matter from which angle he looked at it, Jiang Xia was a coveted commodity.

"It would be great if I could sign him to my team." Tanikawa Noe sighed, "It's a pity that this famous detective is always busy and is both interested and not interested in the entertainment industry..."

He would only make cameo appearances in some clips occasionally, and after the trailers were released, the ratings of those clips would always increase significantly... Seeing this, it suddenly became even more tempting.

"No matter what, this opportunity is rare. It won't hurt to try." The female agent secretly clenched her fists. "I can actually meet Jiang Xia in such a remote place. Maybe this is fate's guidance."

Next to her, the male actor in her hand had just finished arguing with Officer Shiratori. The protagonist who played the detective looked around and his eyes quickly landed on Jiang Xia: "I heard from Tanigawa that a real famous detective came here today - she must be talking about you."

"!" The female agent was secretly alert, thinking that this guy would not go up to provoke her.

She was about to say something, but the actor just stretched out his hand to Jiang Xia and said, "I heard that you have solved many bizarre cases. I really want to hear your details if I have the chance."

Jiang Xia politely extended his hand and shook his hand: "Any time is fine."

The actor laughed and said, "Then let's do it at dinner tonight. It's my treat!"

…

I lazily spent some time in the hall, and before I knew it, the snow outside stopped falling.

The store manager skillfully tidied up the viewing platform, set up the screen, and turned on the searchlight. Soon, an ice and snow themed open-air restaurant appeared in front of everyone.

Although it’s a bit cold, but since I’m here, it would be a waste not to see such a beautiful scenery. In the end, everyone put the two tables together, exchanged business cards, and started this lively and enjoyable dinner.

The actor and the female agent did not come alone, they had two companions with them.

One of them is a sloppy screenwriter with semi-long hair, and the other is the producer of this TV series.

After chatting for a while, the star-chasing Mao Lilan couldn't help but cast her eyes on the actor opposite. She asked curiously: "Are you here to shoot the sequel?"

The actor drank two glasses of wine and was already a little drunk.

Hearing this question, he turned his head and looked at Mao Lilan's face. His face became serious, he raised his finger to his lips, and whispered mysteriously: "No, I came here specifically to protect you."

Conan's fork slid and slid on the plate with a crunch: "..." You're already old, why haven't you cured your chuunibyou yet?

The other people who came with the actor laughed, obviously already used to his personality.

One of the chubby men answered Mao Lilan's question seriously: "We are here for a training camp. We are here to bond with each other and discuss how to shoot the next episode."

He lowered his voice and said, "Except for the people at our table, no one knows that the super popular idol Shagang is also here. Please help keep it a secret for the next few days."

"No problem." Officer Sato looked at the four harmonious and friendly people and sighed, "The atmosphere in your team is really good. I thought the entertainment industry was a circle with clear class distinctions, but I didn't expect you could get along with each other like friends." It seems that I can have a good sleep tonight.

Hearing this, the chubby middle-aged man smiled proudly: "Yes, I just went hunting with Shagang today, and we got a lot!"

"There's nothing to gain." The actor waved his hand. "It's not hunting season at all. The ground is cold and slippery. There aren't many prey."

The female agent laughed and said, "It seems that the animals have escaped. In my opinion, hunting is a cruel activity that harms animals. It's not interesting at all. Why don't you come with me to go archery?"

As she spoke, she remembered something and laughed out loud: "But speaking of killing animals, someone almost killed the driver at the archery range today. That person must have been a novice, but he used so much strength. You didn't see it. The arrow hit the frozen target and flew out in a flash."

Calvados, who was eavesdropping behind the door: "..."

This asshole woman actually dared to make fun of his mistake. If he had a gun in his hand, he would definitely shoot this guy on the spot to see if she could still laugh.

People do not share the same joys and sorrows, Calvados eavesdropped while eating a sandwich.

In the garden restaurant, the laughter and joy continued.

However, the pleasant atmosphere did not last long. As the actor drank more and more, his personality changed subtly.

Suddenly, the actor stood up and approached the slovenly man who came with him: "Come to think of it, how are you doing as the one who needs to relax the most? - I don't think you have done anything to relieve stress."

The screenwriter stared half asleep and ruffled his messy hair: "I can't be as leisurely as you guys. I'm still writing a script."

Suzuki Sonoko glanced at him, and remembering her previous encounter with this man at the counter, she couldn't help but whisper to her two classmates, "I never thought he would be a screenwriter. How could such a gloomy person write such a gorgeous script?"

When the actor heard the screenwriter mention the script, he couldn't help but get sly: "So, Master, what good cases have you thought of? I mean, you should read more letters from viewers. People have guessed all the plots long before the TV series aired. Why do you always write those simple cases that can be seen through at a glance? When I act, I feel like a clown rehearsing a kindergarten play."

The screenwriter snorted coldly and retorted, "I can't help it. Who asked me to make the protagonist closer to your real personality? - You can't solve the case that is too difficult, and you think the normal process of solving the case is not gorgeous enough. After writing it over and over again, it can only become like this now."

The actor reacted: "You called me stupid?!"

"Alright, alright! There's no need to discuss past scripts anymore." The producer quickly stood up to smooth things over. "The TV series does have some shortcomings now, but isn't the purpose of everyone coming here to discuss and resolve these problems?"
