Conan’s Corpse Picker

While retracting the corner, avoiding Vodka's sight.

Conan couldn't help but turn his head and look behind him, and at the same time touched the back of his head with lingering fear.

——In my memory, the last time he peeked at Vodka like this, he barely glanced twice before he was hit on the head by Gin with a stick from behind, and then he was given poison APTX4869.

"..." Speaking of which, it seems that Gin is not here at the moment - at least not in this apartment.

Vodka should come alone.

Thinking of the insidious style of this organization, Conan hid in the corridor and couldn't help but think secretly:

Maybe the bad things Jiang Xia said just now about "some celebrities being harassed online" were simply caused by Vodka himself.

Then this guy will crack his own tricks and take the opportunity to show his value to Jiang Xia. In this way, he can naturally apply to be Jiang Xia's assistant or younger brother, and then achieve some ulterior purposes.

And Jiang Xia didn't like to reject people in many cases, and he always liked to accept younger brothers - when Conan thought of the group of younger brothers who used to roam around freely, but now are always busy catching cats everywhere. Think again about vodka. The blood vessels on his forehead couldn't help but beat.

…

The fact that "vodka was mixed at the scene" was too sudden for Conan.

He didn't have a very specific plan of action at the moment, so he instinctively reached into his pocket, touched the bug and transmitter, and began to think about whether there was any chance of getting them on vodka.

However, a second later.

Conan came to his senses and stopped silently:

no. This is different from the previous "accidental encounters" in public places.

In the past, even if Gin and Vodka discovered that there were bugs around, it would be difficult to target because there were too many people passing by who had the opportunity to install it.

But now, Conan realized that if he really put something on Vodka, Vodka and Gin discovered the situation...

The people in this room, especially the detective Jiang Xia, will probably be on the organization's silence list immediately - Haihara Ai has emphasized their brutality and speed in silence more than once.

Conan: "..." Forget it, let's ask Jiang Xia about "Mr. Yamada" first.

In this way, you may be able to get more useful information and find out the purpose of vodka sneaking into this party.

In addition, Conan felt that he had to find a suitable excuse for his question:

Currently, Jiang Xia does not know the existence of that insidious organization. Pay attention to your skills when asking questions. Some things cannot be said directly...

…

"Yamada? Do you suspect that he is the murderer?"

When Jiang Xia heard Conan's question, he was slightly startled and whispered: "You came in relatively late just now, and you may not have heard the witnesses' testimonies - when Miss Kusano went to take a bath, Yamada stayed in the living room, and he did not have time to commit the crime. .”

After a pause, he added in a low voice with embarrassment: "And he won't do that. Although he... does like the Earth Lady Team, he has always been a very rule-abiding person. He can't break into the idol bathing scene and Cutting someone's throat, that kind of thing."

Conan: "..."

He tasted Jiang Xia's tone and felt that there was a trace of protection for his assistant or younger brother hidden in it, and his head suddenly started to hurt again. There were a lot of words criticizing the black organization pouring out of my heart, but unfortunately no one talked about it.

...Oh, maybe I can complain to Hui Yuan Ai when I get back.

It's just that this approach has side effects, and it's easy for Huihara Ai to make up for it later with his poisonous tongue.

Conan: "..." The only gratifying thing is that after all this hard work. The topic did successfully lead to "Mr. Yamada".

That way, whatever you want to ask next won't be too abrupt.

"So that's it... He really doesn't look like someone who is chasing stars." Conan asked Jiang Xia in a chatty manner, "How did you meet? Have you started chasing stars too?"

"Chasing stars doesn't really count, but we did meet them when we were dealing with artists."

Jiang Xia glanced at the hall, and like a senior detective who had entered the society, he patiently introduced his experience while talking:

"A considerable part of the commissions Miss Yoko introduced me to were to help celebrities get rid of 'stalkers'. This kind of commission is different from solving crimes. It requires identifying the target from a large number of suspects.

"According to our general process, in addition to starting directly from the client, we usually also need to go to their die-hard fans to understand the situation, and find out if there are any people who have spoken extreme words in the recent fan circle.

"——Mr. Yamada likes the Earth Lady Team very much. He may have become a fan of some stars who have worked with Ms. Yoko while watching the show. This partially overlaps with the client that Ms. Yoko introduced to me. So. We have met several times in previous commissions, and Mr. Yamada has been very helpful.”

…

This cliché is half true and half false. And some really have higher content.

Vodka has indeed secretly chased many stars in private. The pseudonym "Yamada" was chosen by Vodka himself and is usually used in the fan circle - Jiang Xia already knew this when he met Vodka at a séance in the suburbs last time. After learning this, I also witnessed Vodka’s superb skills in modeling the figures.

So this time, when he came to find Vodka, Jiang Xia would prepare him the false certificate of "Yamada" in case Vodka didn't do it himself.

In short, if someone follows Jiang Xia's words and investigates them carefully afterwards.

It is true that "Miss Yoko introduced the job", "Mr. Yamada is an active fan" is true, and "Jiang Xia seeks out active fans to understand the situation" is also true... The only thing that needs to be confirmed is: when Jiang Xia is looking for those stalkers, Have you ever had any contact with "Mr. Yamada"?

Vodka usually follows Gin and his whereabouts are secretive.

What's more, the Internet is becoming more and more developed now. Vodka has another "technical" shell packaging. When did he communicate with Jiang Xia? This question cannot be verified.

Therefore, rounding it all off, the passage is entirely true and stands up to scrutiny.

…

Opposite, Conan listened carefully to Jiang Xia's introduction to vodka: "..."

His face was calm, but his heart was very complicated.

However, due to the rich details of the paragraph just now, it sounds quite credible.

Therefore, besides the inference that "vodka must be for Jiangxia!", Conan gradually came up with other ideas.

——Looking at the bright side, maybe Vodka’s appearance here and next to Jiang Xia today was not entirely because he was eyeing this genius detective, but had other purposes, such as contacting someone at the party. Just because of a chance encounter before, he accidentally used Jiang Xia as a tool?
