In the days when Conan was in chaos, trying to scientifically explain the "prophetic phenomenon".
Jiang Xia drove the puppet to the black market and got her new bankbook.
The gold coins have been processed. After deducting various commissions, there are still more than 700 million left. The fees charged by the middleman are a bit shady, but after all, this is Anonymous’s first time on the black market, and he has no connections or credibility, so the price is quite reasonable.
…
After getting the money, Jiang Xia thought of upgrading the energy core for the ghost, and took the time to visit museums, jewelry stores, art galleries and other places.
But just like a year ago, I couldn't find what I wanted.
The huge sum of money in the bankbook suddenly became boring.
In the end, Jiang Xia simply went to the green plant market and bought a few potted plants that were not cost-effective but very beautiful. She had wanted to buy them before but had not.
…
After raising the potted plants until they bloom, Suzuki Sonoko sent a message: [See you at the station tomorrow! ]
Jiang Xia was startled. station?
After thinking for a moment, he remembered. Last time, after the KTV was a tragic murder scene, Suzuki Sonoko reluctantly provided another ghost hunter... ahem, a place to play - the mountain villa her sister had newly bought.
…
Sonoko Suzuki is the daughter of the chairman of the Suzuki Foundation.
The Suzuki Consortium is synonymous with "rich people" in this world.
They have so many villas, and the most enviable thing is that murders happen in almost every one of them.
While Jiang Xia was looking forward to it, she also had some doubts.
——The Suzuki family has too many villas, and he is not sure which one had an accident this time.
However, the unknown can sometimes be a surprise.
You’ll know the specifics once you go there.
…
Jiang Xia asked for leave from Toru Amuro in advance.
At noon the next day, he packed his luggage and arrived at the Shinkansen station.
Soon, Jiang Xia found three people traveling with him - Mao Lilan, Suzuki Yuanzi, and the never-absent Conan.
…
The car ride was a bit boring.
On the way, Suzuki Yuanzi tried to have a long conversation with Jiang Xia, but failed.
——It can be seen that Jiang Xia is trying hard to chat with her, but the two of them have not yet discovered a common topic, and the chat process is very difficult. In the end, Suzuki Sonoko tearfully decided to give it up as soon as possible, so as not to cause Jiang Xia's psychological shadow. To develop sustainably.
Finally, Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan chatted about Conan, the child who appeared out of thin air.
Conan doesn't mind being discussed about his life experience by his classmates. Anyway, the life experience of "Edogawa Conan" is all made up.
But seeing Jiang Xia also listening... Conan gradually became a little restless.
Last time, after leaving KTV, Conan felt that his vest was torn off by Jiang Xia.
He originally thought that Jiang Xia would ask him about becoming smaller afterwards, but he didn't. Everything in Jiang Xia was as usual, as if nothing had been discovered.
Conan then comforted himself in his heart - even if "Edogawa Conan" and "Kudo Shinichi" looked exactly the same when he was a child, Jiang Xia, as his neighbor, had seen his appearance as a child; even if Conan looked like him before and after Kudo Shinichi disappeared. , suddenly appeared at the doctor's house; even if Conan is often careless and behaves not like an ordinary elementary school student, but like a generalist who knows a lot, even if...
…
Conan: "..."
...We can no longer deceive ourselves.
——Jiang Xia must know that "Conan" is related to "Kudo Shinichi".
As for why he didn't ask... maybe he felt that the two of them weren't familiar with each other and didn't want to pry into the neighbor's secrets.
It may also be that Jiang Xia, as a detective, still cannot accept the absurdity of "adults becoming smaller" that violates the law of conservation of matter, so she is deliberately evading it.
…
But now, Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan suddenly talked about the flawed life experience of "Edogawa Conan"...
Conan couldn't help but worry: If we continue to chat like this, what should he say if Jiang Xia really comes to ask about "getting smaller"?
If we tell the truth, the topic will definitely involve that terrible organization, which will involve Jiang Xia. Jiang Xia will also become the target of the black organization because she knows too much.
But if he lies... what kind of lie can deceive Jiang Xia?
Conan thought for a moment and suddenly had an idea.
He jumped out of his seat and planned to sneak to the bathroom - maybe his classmates wouldn't see him and wouldn't continue talking about "Conan".
Escape is shameless, but effective.
…
After walking along the train corridor for a while and out of sight of his classmates, Conan breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the car stopped and two people got on the train one after another.
Conan accidentally glanced and saw the person getting into the car clearly, and was startled.
——Those were two very familiar tall men in black.
Conan looked at one of them with sunglasses and a wide chin, and then at the other with a long, straight silver face. His heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and cold sweat ran down his cheeks.
...These are the two culprits who gave him strange poison and made him shrink!
