Chapter 493 Want to see this Uzo

   Jiang Xia was puzzled for a moment, and quickly put aside the boss who was good at disappearing, and began to prepare equipment for climbing.

   Anyway, it is impossible for Amuro to find evidence that "Jiang Xia is behind the scenes of the murder case", and he will not take people back to the police station for no reason.

  Since this is the case, then there is no need to worry about it, and if it is other important matters, Amuro will definitely come to him again.

   Thinking so, Jiang Xia looked at the time.

   Seeing that it was still early, he locked the door of the office and went to the Rice Flower Commercial Building.

  …

   Considering this time, the client has already delivered to the door by himself, and the "Silver Fox" has a high chance of appearing after the client.

   So Jiang Xia felt that he should be able to pick up what he wanted without deliberately finding someone to go with him.

   However, there are always some people who will take the initiative to crash into the place where there is an incident.

  ——When choosing a suitable mountaineering bag in a commercial building, Jiang Xia was suddenly slapped on the shoulder.

   He turned his head and saw a familiar classmate standing behind him.

  Maurilan was carrying a shopping bag and followed Conan next to him.

   She looked at the bag on the shelf and asked curiously, "Are you going to climb the mountain? Did you get a lottery ticket?"

   Jiang Xia shook his head: "I haven't drawn a prize recently... It's not a famous scenic spot, just an ordinary mountain."

  Mao Lilan was startled: "Go alone?"

  Conan also felt that this scene was quite rare: "It's rare to see you in the mood to travel alone..."

……Ok? etc.

  Conan is suddenly alert.

  This morning, he just saw news on TV that an unidentified man in red has recently been found in the "Toujin Forest" in Gunma Prefecture. Since the police have not yet determined whether it was suicide or homicide, the focus of the report was on the spooky forest where the body was found. It is called "Suicide Holy Land".

   There are actually many other so-called "holy places". A large part of them are distributed in the deep mountains everywhere.

After suddenly thinking of this, Conan felt suspicious the more he thought about it--speaking of which, when Jiang Xia went out, he seemed to like to find someone to go with him, not to mention traveling, he was connected to the commission, and Jiang Xia would sometimes ask them on purpose. Are you free? Even Uncle Maori has been invited several times...

   But this time, Jiang Xia actually wanted to go to the mountain alone?

  ...weird, just weird anyway.

  Conan remembered the eerie appearance of the suicide holy place, and asked tentatively, "This season is full of thunder and rain, which is not a good time to climb mountains. Why do you suddenly want to travel in the mountains?"

   Jiang Xia glanced down at him.

   After Kudo-san became Conan, every time he asked a question with a purpose, he would subconsciously use the cute tone commonly used by children...

  Although I don’t know why Conan changed his tone this time, one thing is certain—Conan seems to be very interested in mountain climbing.

   Jiang Xia fell into contemplation.

  ...Although in the entrustment received this time, the chance of the silver fox appearing in Danyuan Mountain is not small, so there is no need to bring people here.

   But if Conan and Mao Lilan wanted to come, Jiang Xia would definitely not refuse. With the physique of the two incidents following, maybe there will be other gains...

   Jiang Xia hesitated for a moment, then said the truth: "It's not that I want to travel, it's because I recently received a strange request..."

   He briefly recounted what happened in the office, as well as the strange words and deeds that the commissioner Chao Wenzao invited a killer to assassinate himself and doubled the reward for climbing.

  Conan: "..."

  Maolilan: "..."

   The two classmates heard a question mark. Obviously, they didn't expect this kind of operation of "paying someone to kill themselves".

  Conan digested the amount of information, pulled Jiang Xia aside, and whispered:

"The purpose of this client should not be simple, and there are too many variables on the mountain. And the sniper appeared very coincidentally. If the client actually has a grudge against you, find someone to pretend to be a sniper and try to deceive you out. Find a gunman to assassinate you..."

"I know." Jiang Xia nodded and said that he had considered the risk, "But anyway, since this happened, it shows that the sniper is real - if he is left alone, the social harm is too great. Why don't you go to the mountain to see the situation and try to lure people out and catch them."

  Conan: "..."

  … quite socially responsible.

   He sighed inwardly: He never told Jiang Xia about the black-clothed organization, it was right, otherwise, now, he might have another mature and stable elementary school classmate...

  Conan was silent for a moment, thinking that he had nothing to do the day after tomorrow: "I'm going too."

   If you are idle, you are idle. It is better to find out the tricks of the client. Thinking about it, this will be an interesting puzzle that is no less difficult than deciphering a murder case.

   And he is a child, if the client really has a conspiracy, he will definitely be despised and let him discover more truth.

   At the same time as making the decision, Conan also found a reason to persuade Jiang Xia: "The matter of 'the client has a problem' is just a conjecture, and it cannot be ruled out that he really couldn't think of it for a while and hired someone to kill him.

"—Didn't you and the client make an appointment to pretend not to know each other that day, wait until the foot of the mountain, and then meet as a stranger? If you go by yourself, it's easy to be suspected by the killer. But if you bring a child with you , the killer will treat us as mere tourists and take it lightly."

   Jiang Xia was hesitant to hear the words: "This is very dangerous..."

Next to   , there is an eavesdropping Mao Lilan whose ears move, is it dangerous?

  It is dangerous to have more people go together: "Then I will go too!"

  "..." Really a group of caring and good classmates.

   Jiang Xia was a little moved, and then decided to find an opportunity to show "Wuzuo" to them.

  ... It's not that I want to show off my rare new vest, mainly because Conan looks very interested in the black organization. He may be very happy to send a code-named cadre to play with him in advance.

   In short, after some unswerving rejections, Jiang Xia managed to abduct two classmates with precious event physiques.

  …

   On the day of the appointment.

   Jiang Xia came to the foot of Danyuan Mountain with his packed luggage and found the mountain management office.

  When you come here to climb the mountain, you must first submit the entry procedures. After that, the staff of the management office will send the names of the number of climbers to the rest stop on the way, so that people in the rest stop can prepare lunch.

   After handing in the list, Jiang Xia found Mao Lilan and Conan who were already waiting beside him.

  Mao Lilan looked at the route map standing at the foot of the mountain: "I'm going to stay at 'Shanyuezhuang' tonight...I hope I don't go astray."

  Jiang Xia pulled up the mask and pulled down the brim of his hat, pretending that he was not a detective, but a passerby with allergies to the sun:

   "It's alright, I heard that there is only one road here, it's really not good, you can still follow others."
