Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 1854: 1854【Unpacking】

 Chapter 18541854【Unpacking】

Just as Jiang Xia was looking at Canary and Canary was looking at Suzuki Sonoko warily, a man came up behind them.

The lobby manager saw two high school students gathered in front of the birdcage and praised their taste: "Do you like it? These canaries are actually my pets."

"!" Suzuki Sonoko straightened up and nodded guiltily, "Of course I like it! We were praising its feathers just now."

Jiang Xia hummed in a dignified manner and helped her classmates cover up their lies.

The lobby manager was happy. He walked to the cage and teased the birds across the cage: "Originally, I thought they would be lonely if they were locked in the room alone, so I put the birdcage here. Who knew that a murder actually happened in the lobby... Alas, there are so many people coming and going now, I don’t know if they are scared or not.”

Suzuki Sonoko: "..." She didn't know whether the bird scared her, but this elusive manager did scare her.

 …

Although the scene was slightly chaotic, thanks to the unremitting efforts of both clubs, the wedding dress catwalk competition was finally held as scheduled.

"Welcome to the Bodhisattva-Rokujo Wedding Dress Design Competition." The host tried to forget the terrible scene of President Rokujo falling to the ground and adjusted the atmosphere. "Next, please enjoy the passionate performances of the models from the two major brands - these beautiful Wedding dresses will definitely add a lot of color to the newlyweds’ future lives!”

 After a brief speech, the catwalk began.

 The lights at the venue dimmed, and models wearing different styles of wedding dresses came and went along the catwalk.

"Look, look!" Suzuki Sonoko shook Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan who were standing next to her. "Masumi is out! She's so beautiful, such a long skirt can hold up."

Jiang Xia nodded, and suddenly saw someone trotting in the venue from the corner of his eye.

He turned around and saw the assistant who had driven to pick them up from before running in. The assistant stopped next to Naoko Tormaru and whispered a few words to her anxiously.

I don’t know what kind of bad news she brought. Even Toriyama Naoko’s expression changed, and the two of them hurriedly turned around and went backstage.

Jiang Xia was watching when he suddenly heard a voice coming from his feet: "Let's go and have a look too."

As soon as he lowered his head, he saw Conan staring intensely at the direction in which the two women left.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko heard the noise: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Xia pointed to the backstage: "Something seems to have happened over there."

 “Is there another case?” Suzuki Sonoko suddenly became alert.

It happened that Takamori Masumi had finished her show at this time. Several high school students quickly made a decision and hurried backstage to the preparation room of Bodhi Club.

 …

As soon as I arrived, I walked along the corridor and saw a circle of people surrounding the door of the room from a distance. Everyone looked shocked.

When Mao Lilan saw this posture, he suddenly thought in his heart: "Is it true that someone has died again?"

Jiang Xia approached and looked over the staff's shoulders into the room, only to find that there was no body in the room.

But it was true that something happened—on the model stand in the corner, there was a wedding dress with complicated craftsmanship that should have been extremely gorgeous. It seemed to be the finale product prepared by Boduo Company.

But at this time, it was splashed with ink and cut into tatters with scissors. It looked like it had just been dragged out of a scrap recycling company. No matter how you look at it, it cannot be put on stage again.

 “Those shameless **** from the Liujo Club...” There was a murderous aura in the crowd, as if they were a family.

Jiang Xia touched her nose and did not leave. She quietly stayed at the door to join in the fun. But the employees of Boduo Company cannot be so leisurely.

Naoko Tormaru walked anxiously around the wedding dress. Suddenly she thought of something and said to her staff: "I remember there were a lot of white tablecloths at the venue. The texture is very good. Find some for me. The more the better! "

The employees looked at each other: "Tablecloth? What do you want this for?"

Only the lobby manager trusts his Qingmei, who suddenly appears from behind Jiang Xia and takes orders at the critical moment: "Leave it to me!"

“…” Jiang Xia rubbed the ears that were shaken by him, turned around and saw the accomplished lobby manager running back to the banquet hall quickly.

As he approached the table, he slowed down and bowed to the puzzled guests: "Excuse me, I'm just adding a little trick at the moment. I hope you all enjoy watching."

As he spoke, he held a corner of the tablecloth and twitched it skillfully. The tablecloth was in his hands instantly, while the plates and vases on the table stood in place without moving at all.

The guests were confused as to why the lobby manager suddenly started to perform acrobatics, but up close, they saw that his skills were really impressive, so they applauded in a dignified manner.

The lobby manager held the new clean tablecloth, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried to the next table.

 …

 Not long after, he returned with a pile of tablecloths.

Torimaru Naoko took the tablecloth and worked around the model frame for a while. A gorgeous pure white dress appeared in front of everyone.

“…Is this the pile of tablecloths from just now?”

Even though Suzuki Sonoko has seen many dresses and skirts, she was shocked by the skill of changing the tablecloth.

Naoko Toriyama had no time to chat and kept adjusting the details: "The gloss is not bright enough, so some crystals or glitter are needed to adjust it."

The assistant was stunned: “However, there are no similar elements in this competition, so we did not bring such materials.”

 “What?!” Naoko Tormaru wanted to get angry, but she held it back.

  She looked around the venue anxiously, and suddenly her eyes were flashed by a bright light. Toriyama Naoko looked along the burst of light, and her eyes fell on the shoulder bag Suzuki Sonoko was carrying.

Possibly to match tonight's gorgeous catwalk, the high school girl's clothes are brighter today, and the surface of the bag is also studded with small sparkling stones.

Torimaru Naoko's eyes lit up: "Your bag..."

"Huh?" Suzuki Sonoko was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what she meant.

She emptied the contents of the bag and handed it over: "Please take it apart. I saw that there seems to be a handy tool in your tool box. You should be able to rub it off with a little force - Masumi must win this." A catwalk!"

 She quietly recorded a performance for her old classmate.

 The staff of Botuo Club saw the hope of participating in the competition, thanked her, and happily started to unpack the package.

Conan suddenly remembered something, looked at Suzuki Sonoko, and asked curiously: "Those things look brighter than crystal, are they made of diamonds?"

Suzuki Sonoko took the plastic bag handed over by Jiang Xia and hurriedly gathered the things she took out of the bag: "No, it's okay to bring the diamond bag to the banquet. Why do you usually carry it out? Are you waiting to be robbed in the street? That's just Some hyacinth stones.”

Torimaru Naoko took time out of her busy schedule to look at her and said, "Thank you very much. I will definitely pay you for a similar bag in the future."
