When Jiang Xia left the police station, the ghost baby ran to Jiang Xia's side, dragging a piece of shikigami that was about the same size as itself.
The curator was arrested, and the resentment of the leg-picking shikigami dissipated a lot, and he was able to completely pull it off from the leg.
Jiang Xia turned into the small street. There was no one around. He bent down and picked up the ghost baby and shikigami.
As the curator entered the game, the obsession with the shikigami dissipated. Now, it is just a paper shikigami with no emotions.
Collecting shikigami doesn’t have to be as troublesome as collecting ghost fetuses.
Jiang Xia pricked her fingertip and pressed the blood droplet on it.
A touch of blood was printed on the body of the shikigami. The blood red quickly turned to black, and finally rotated and solidified into a floral Z logo.
Jiang Xia picked up the newly acquired ghost, looked at it for a while, and then put it into the tattoo space in his heart.
The ghost fetus is there, the murderous intention is there, and the shikigami is there.
Although they are very few, it is a qualitative change and a breakthrough from scratch.
Jiang Xia let out a breath of mist, raised the collar of his windbreaker, and walked expressionlessly on the cold streets. I wanted to applaud myself in my heart.
——After living in this world for so long, I finally look like a psychic.
…
Jiang Xia originally thought that it would take a while for another leg-picking shikigami who lacked evidence to have results.
Unexpectedly, when he woke up the next day and was debating whether to go to class or work in the office, the police station called and told him that the murder case had been resolved and the police had found evidence.
After Jiang Xia heard this, she put down the phone happily.
Toru Amuro is really useful.
With this kind of thing, Jiang Xia no longer has to worry about today's itinerary.
He went straight to the police station.
…
At the Metropolitan Police Department, Jiang Xia let Guiying go to get the shikigami. He himself found a place to sit down and looked to the side.
——The detective next door who provided the clues also came.
After finishing the transcript, when the police officers were sorting out the signature materials, the detective next door flicked the newspaper in his hand towards Jiang Xia and muttered: "It seems that I will soon have a famous detective neighbor."
"Detective?"
Jiang Xia turned around and saw a huge photo - the person on it was himself.
The background is yesterday's medieval pavilion.
Last night, when Jiang Xia was blocked by reporters at the door, he didn't say much because he was not proficient in business.
But the curator next to him was very talkative. The police did not stop the old curator. In this world, there is no confidentiality in cases.
The curator looked at the camera, thought for a moment, and praised Jiang Xia.
Maybe he suddenly realized that the stronger his opponent, the less embarrassing it would be for him to lose.
In addition, in addition to the curator, the little girl involved in the kidnapping case happened to be playing nearby with her father last night.
After the father and daughter encountered this incident by chance, they joined in the fun and told the touching story of Jiang Xia's rescue of the hostages. Immediately, they were swarmed by many reporters, asking for details.
In addition, some well-informed media found out that Jiang Xia was Kudo Shinichi's classmate.
Coincidentally, there has been no news about Kudo Shinichi, who has been in the newspapers recently, and there are rumors that he has been killed.
So there was a gimmick.
——Two high school detectives appeared one after another, and they happened to be in the same class.
This kind of coincidence is enough to make the media cover several pages out of thin air.
Jiang Xia: "..."
He was slightly speechless after reading it, feeling that the media in this world are so imaginative.
However, if you want to increase your reputation in a short period of time and reach out to more people who may become ghosts after death, you need a certain degree of topicality.
Jiang Xia is different from other high school detectives.
He does not have the qualifications to pile up hundreds of cases.
And gimmicks like "Kudo Shinichi is possessed by the dead soul" can be like the detective who "will suddenly fall asleep at the crime scene and start reasoning". Because of its uniqueness, Jiang Xia quickly became a household name.
…In short, it’s complicated, with mixed feelings.
Jiang Xia silently returned the newspaper, pretended to straighten his trousers, and leaned down to pick up the ghost baby that ran over and the leg-scratching shikigami it grabbed back.
Before leaving, the police officers brought them two envelopes and gave them a special bonus.
It is said that in this case, the deceased was thrown into a ceremony and the body was burned in public. There were many witnesses and the impact was huge. A successful crackdown deserves a reward.
Jiang Xia is still the same, collecting money when he has money.
When he took the envelope, he touched the rough kraft paper and felt that the money smelled like a salary thief.
…
A week later, as expected, the case of corpse burning at the ceremony also appeared in the newspapers.
Jiang Xia looked at her photos, thought for a while, bought a few newspapers and a notebook.
After returning home, cut out all the deeds with his name and paste them one by one.
I heard that in this world, many celebrities have the habit of asking famous detectives to listen to stories.
So Jiang Xia plans to make such a collection first.
If someone asks in the future, just hand it over and let them see for themselves.
…
The next day, Jiang Xia got up and checked the school schedule.
There is no exam today.
So Jiangxia Shutan's pigeon dropped out of class.
He carried a kettle and gardening shears and took care of the potted plants at home and the plants grown in the yard - these are all raw materials that can be used in Ghost Mint.
During the pruning process, Jiang Xia picked off the ripe fruits and leaves, cut them into pieces of suitable size, and spread them out in the basement to dry in the shade.
Those that have been dried before are collected and taken to the living room, rolled into homemade cigarettes, and then packed in sealed boxes. This is a very skilled process.
After finishing it, Jiang Xia looked at the time and found that it was not yet noon.
So he picked up a cage of cats and planned to go to the detective office to sit there and wait for the guests to come.
