Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 807: You are so skillful

Chapter 807: You are so skillful

That is a poster that looks full of life. Blue sky and green grass, with a shiny railway track in the middle and a brand new train on the track. There are a few big words on the front of the train - "Heisei Express, a journey of dreams and romance."

The code "3135134162" left by the kidnapped police officer Yamabe Koichi actually refers to this train.

This string of numbers is typed on the calculator, and when viewed backwards, it happens to be "291heiseie": 29 is the date of action, 1 is the scheduled sniper time, 1 p.m.

 And "heiseie" is the Roman pronunciation of "Heisei" + the first letter of express, which refers to the Heisei Express train.

—The kidnappers want Yamabe Koichi to snipe Prosecutor Yoshino who will be riding on the Heisei Express train on that day.

At present, it seems that Prosecutor Yoshino is the key figure who brought down the Onihu Club.

In the mission "Uzo" sent to "Jiang Xia", the brave second-in-command who was "motivated to avenge the Ghost Tiger Society and put aside the deal with the organization" was the one who kidnapped Yamabe Koichi and his wife, The leader of the group of kidnappers who planned to assassinate Prosecutor Yoshino. This is exactly the "man in black wearing sunglasses" that Conan and the others saw when they were catching fish.

 …

 For Jiang Xia, in the unlikely event of a ghost fetus, whether to choose shikigami or murderous aura is always a question worth pondering.

But this time, it seems that there is no need to do multiple-choice questions anymore.

—Since in the eyes of the organization, the second-in-command of the Ghost Tiger Society who fled with the delivery seal is more worthy of targeting, then let’s choose his murderous intent.

Jiang Xia glanced at the poster on the wall again: "..."

Speaking of which, the kidnapped Koichi Yamabe was able to come up with such a code, and even hid a calculator and typed in numbers while carrying a few kidnappers who were watching him. He was also a very fast person. Leave it to Kidd to practice, and maybe he will be another generation of magic king...

It's a pity that the known information he conveyed was only the gathering place, not the place where the robbers held them.

 This may be because there are no landmark buildings in the detention center and it is difficult to use code to express it. It may also be because Yamabe Koichi himself doesn't know where they are being held.

Jiang Xia thought for a while and felt that instead of handing the matter over to the police, it would be better to try to find the kidnappers herself.

—It’s not that I haven’t kidnapped anyone for a few days, my hands are a little itchy... It’s just that in the hands of this group of kidnappers headed by the second-in-command of the Ghost Tiger Society, there is actually another weak hostage, that is, the newlywed wife of sniper Yamabe Koichi, Eri , the previous owner of Ganfanmao...

 Since you have decided to kill, you must get them all. And if this matter is left entirely to the police, if the kidnappers use hostages to deal with the police and one or two of them end up running away, things will not be perfect.

 So, it is better to work **** your own first, find the kidnappers' dens in advance, and catch them all without sparing any one.

Anyway, Conan and the others have been busy adding O-Eri's disappearance case recently, and I'm afraid they won't be able to trigger other events for a while, so they have nothing to do...

 …

 The kidnapper's den is far more difficult to find than the practice location.

 Because there are no clues.

However, while wandering around, Jiang Xia discovered a lot of terrain similar to the practice location.

 He ​​thought for a moment, called up the map and studied it for a while, and began to wander back and forth between the riverside where he practiced shooting and the Shinkansen sniper point.

 Hakaichi Yamabe is, after all, a policeman under duress, and in terms of professional skills, he is highly skilled. When the kidnappers control him, it should be difficult to trust him. The place of detention will not be too far from the sniper point, which will shorten the distance during transfer.

 It just so happens that that area is also very desolate, making it easy to hide people. By the way, you can also check if there are any other emergencies on the way.

 …

 The next morning. While Jiang Xia was happily riding his motorcycle in an old neighborhood, he was suddenly patted on his helmet by the man on duty who was on his shoulder.

 —At the corner ahead, murderous intent is rapidly approaching.

Before the ghosts' reminders could be finished, the murderous aura had already entered Jiang Xia's range of perception.

Soon, the front of a car emerged from the corner.

Jiang Xia glanced at the debris piled on the street. I originally wanted to follow my previous experience of avoiding patrolmen, run over it, take advantage of the situation, and finally put a wheel mark on the roof of the car as a signature of this trip, and drive away.

But almost at the same time, he clearly sensed the smell of murderous aura.

 —Two piles of overflowing murderous aura, both very tight and dense.

Especially the man in the passenger seat, whose murderous aura smelled like chicken rolls and was drizzled with salad dressing.

In just one encounter, Jiang Xia vaguely saw the other party’s outfit through the front window of the car—the people in the car were dressed in suits and sunglasses, exactly what Conan had described as the “kidnapper” group.

This location, this murderous aura, plus this outfit...

 The people in the car must be the kidnappers who took Yamabe Koichi hostage and planned to attack Prosecutor Yoshino.

Jiang Xia: "..." He spent more than a day shopping in this area. Just when he had almost forgotten what he was here to do, the target actually appeared on his own initiative.

 …It’s true that hard work pays off. God will indeed be kind to the hard-working psychics.

The only pity is that after a quick glance, there were only two people in the car. This is inconsistent with the number of small gangs of kidnappers. The remaining people are probably still hiding in their dens...

In the flash of lightning, Jiang Xia glanced diagonally upward from the corner of her eye, still letting the motorcycle run over the debris on the road.

However, he did not jump on the roof of the opponent's car. Instead, he tilted the motorcycle a little in the other direction.

 …

The two sides met unexpectedly. The driver of Guihuhui obviously did not expect that there would be someone riding a motorcycle here in broad daylight. In panic, he turned the steering wheel sharply, slammed on the brakes, and instinctively avoided.

 The motorcycle on the other side seemed surprised and turned its front.

 However, maybe because of being too nervous, both sides turned exactly in the same direction. In the end, the motorcycle rider jumped out of the car and tried to escape. His motorcycle was run over by the commercial vehicle and pinned between the two wheels. He himself fell out with a clang, and somehow landed on the roof of the car and rolled down again. He came down and landed firmly on the front hood of the car, and his helmet fell off.

 The people in the car: “…”

The second-in-command of the Onihu Club, Yuji Tomura, couldn't help but cursed in his heart.

 Before the assassination, it is the time when it is most necessary to keep a low profile. They even buy their meals from various convenience stores in a low-key manner, and go to restaurants to package their meals without much fanfare. Unexpectedly, there was a car accident the day before the assassination...

Yuji Tomura: "..." If this motorcycle rider who is looking for death falls in front of their car or falls behind their car after a collision, he will definitely let the driver of the car step on the accelerator and drive away directly, regardless of his life or death.

Unexpectedly, this guy fell right on the front hood of their car... If they continued to drive forward on top of this person and failed to get rid of the person from the car in time, and were seen by passers-by, then this car would definitely be remembered. He even took photos and was later put on a wanted poster.

 And they don't have time to find a new car.
