Conan’s Corpse Picker

When Director Tsugawa turned around with an ugly face, the elevator had already reached the lower floor.

He stared furiously at the changing numbers on the display screen, and rushed towards the stairs, intending to run to the first floor to block people.

...

When curator Jin Chuan competed with the elevator for speed,

In the elevator, Conan praised the children "good job!", while pressing the button of the elevator, intending to make it stop halfway. To avoid being blocked by the curator on the first floor.

Just, before he pressed the button. The downward trend of the elevator has already slowed down, and it seems to be about to stop.

Conan's first reaction was. The students were finally witty once - needless to say, they knew that they couldn't go to the first floor now.

However, after taking a closer look, Conan suddenly discovered that the floor button on the inside did not light up.

... In other words, the elevator stopped at the second floor, not because they chose the second floor, but because someone outside pressed the switch for them!

Conan: "?!"

The gloomy face of the curator appeared in Conan's mind, and a chill rushed straight behind him.

He originally thought that his plan was enough to fool Director Jinchuan who was in a state of anger.

Unexpectedly, this time, the curator actually predicted his prediction, saw through his plan to get off the elevator halfway, and waited leisurely here!

...

Conan's face was livid, and he tapped the door close button, trying to prevent the elevator from opening.

However, it was useless, he could only grit his teeth and watch the elevator come to a stop.

At this time, Conan deeply realized what it means to hate a book when it is used.

——As long as he took away a large tome just now, now he doesn't have to face the dilemma of having nothing to kick with "strength-enhancing shoes".

...

Under the desperate gaze of several children, the elevator finally stopped on the second floor.

Conan squatted down and turned on the switch of the sneakers.

——No way, since there is nothing to kick, I can only try the sliding shovel again.

This time, as long as he passed Curator Jinchuan's crotch and kicked his leg with the power-enhancing shoes, or somewhere else, there might be a chance of survival.

Thinking of this, Conan leaned against the back of the elevator car, and the moment the door opened, he pushed hard on the wall and slid out.

However, before Conan flew out with the long-planned kick, a swing stick flicked on him lightly.

Conan's trajectory suddenly shifted sharply, he slid out with a thump, and slammed into the wall next to him.

Conan: "..."

……etc.

Why did the stick that pulled him look so familiar?

Conan jumped up and was pleasantly surprised to see that it was Jiang Xia standing at the elevator entrance.

...

Jiang Xia carried an unfolded stick, and didn't ask Conan why he suddenly appeared as a mopping machine.

He looked at the three children in the elevator and ordered concisely, "Come out."

Mitsuhiko and Genta huddled together, looked at Conan who was defeated in an instant, felt that he was not an opponent, and walked out trembling.

Ayumi is calmer than the two boys.

She recognized Jiang Xia as the one who saved her and Conan in the dungeon last time.

This time in danger, Brother Jiang Xia appeared again... Ayumi thought about it, and the starlight of kilakila appeared in her eyes.

...

When a few brats stepped out of the elevator.

Jiang Xia and the children walked past each other and entered the elevator.

Then I pressed the button for the 1st floor.

Under the dumbfounded gaze of the children, the elevator door gradually closed.

Before the door was completely closed, Jiang Xia glanced at them through the crack of the door: "Stay where you are, don't make a sound."

The four children subconsciously stood at attention and nodded in unison.

...

The library stairwell.

Curator Jin Chuan went straight to the first floor with a grim expression, holding the metal water pipe.

Running to the elevator, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the elevator was still going from the second floor to the first floor.

He didn't think about why he was able to run so fast, he just thought that his extreme anger had activated his infinite potential.

...

Soon, with a ding, the elevator stopped on the first floor.

Curator Jin Chuan impatiently stretched out his hand, grabbing the elevator door that had just opened a crack: "Let me see where you are going this time..."

Boom——

A slender black shadow crossed the crack of the door, and precisely knocked on Director Jin Chuan's forehead.

Director Jinchuan was dizzy before his eyes, and before he could recover, he was hit hard in the abdomen.

He flew backwards, hit the wall and slipped. In the chaos, the curator saw a person walking out of the elevator with the backlight—the one in the elevator was not the "weak kid" he thought, but looked taller than him.

... When did this person enter the library? !

How much did he know about drugs and dead bodies? What's the deal with those kids? ? Is there still time to silence it? !

Curator Jin Chuan looked at Jiang Xia who was approaching, then at the stick he raised, and panicked: "...What do you want to do?!"

"Come and return the book." Jiang Xia threw the "Detective Handbook" on him casually, "By the way, do what is right."

With the sound of flying pages, the elevator door closed behind Jiang Xia. The bright elevator light converged into a narrow line, and finally disappeared completely. The corridor suddenly returned to darkness.

Before the last ray of light disappeared, curator Jin Chuan saw the "ordinary citizen who came to return the book" swung the stick in his hand and made a whistling sound, and then looked down at him, with a strange look of anticipation on the corner of his mouth Smile.

Director Tsugawa: "..."

...Don't come here! ! !

...

Fifteen minutes later.

The Mumu Police Department rushed to it anxiously, and then in the library, they picked up a bruised pig...ah no, it was a swollen curator Jin Chuan.

"..." Officer Sato stretched out his hand and poked lightly on Director Jinchuan's body, receiving a painful wail.

She immediately breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, no one died.

...

Beside them, three children stood there with flustered eyes, as quiet as chickens.

When Jiang Xia moved, they all shivered and huddled together, not daring to make a sound.

Jiang Xia didn't walk towards them.

He just walked up to Sato, and whispered apologetically, "I'm sorry, Director Jinchuan yelled that he would kill all the children. It was dark in the corridor at the time, and he knew the library very well. I was afraid of him. If you escape, you will hurt the children. If you are in a hurry, you will accidentally strike too hard..."

A word came out of the mouths of "several children" at the same time - cheating!

Then he swallowed silently.

"..." dare not say.

Moreover, although Jiang Xia was a little bit cruel, she did save them.

Relying on their simple emotions, the few children felt that they could not do this kind of backstabbing of their benefactors.

...

Miwako Sato did not notice the panic of the children.

She patted Jiang Xia's shoulder and encouraged: "You did nothing wrong."

To be honest, after learning what Director Jin Chuan had done, Police Officer Sato wanted to praise Jiang Xia for "playing well".

...But unfortunately, the police cannot say such things.

So she could only kindly remind: "However, don't be so impulsive in the future, otherwise if the prisoner dies, you will also be in trouble."

"Yeah." Jiang Xia nodded gently, "Be careful next time."
