MTL - Conan’s Corpse Picker-Chapter 21 You let go, ask for a monthly pass ()

   Chapter 21 You let go, ask for a monthly pass ()

   Borrowing the vision of a ghost is equivalent to having night vision.

  Jiang Xia walked through a group of strangely shaped sculptures to the depths of the exhibition hall. The smell of blood is getting stronger.

   At the end of the room, looking to the left, there is a huge oil painting on the left. In the painting, a demon is nailed to a cliff by a knight.

   Looking to the right, on the right, a fat middle-aged man was nailed to the wall in "the same pose as the devil". Blood was splattered all over the wall, and a pool of blood had gathered at the base of the wall.

   Jiang Xia glanced over the middle-aged man's body and quickly settled on his calf.

   There is a flat soul clinging to it.

   The size of a palm, it looks like a common paper shikigami.

   Jiang Xia saw a similar one in the morning, but he didn't expect another one to follow.

   In the category of psychics, when people die, some souls will dissipate directly, and those with extraordinary talents can become ghosts.

   There is another, somewhere in between.

  ——It is this kind of paper shikigami.

  The ghost fetus usually has a relatively strong self-awareness, and also remembers the things before his death. It is the worst, but also the most useful.

   And this kind of shikigami in front of him doesn't have much consciousness, but his obsession is particularly heavy.

   Most of them act instinctively.

  Some will pick up their own bodies nearby, which may be more secure.

   And if the body is gone, or if there is too much resentment towards the murderer, they will pick up the murderer.

   Although the vision of the ghost baby has been borrowed, the other senses are still there.

   It felt the breath of the shikigami, and couldn't help but lean over, wanting to drag it down and bring it to Jiangxia.

   Jiang Xia looked around and found that although the shikigami was shivering due to the approach of the ghost baby, he still held it tightly.

  The ghost baby accidentally ripped a little bit with force.

  It stayed, let go, and secretly ironed the wrinkled area.

   Jiang Xia sighed.

  ... Sure enough, I couldn't tear it off with violence.

   Still have to go through the process, send the murderer away first, and let the soul eliminate its obsession.

   As a "prophet", Jiang Xia certainly remembers this case in the pavilion.

   Affected by the financial crisis, the previous owner of the pavilion went bankrupt, so he sold the pavilion to the owner of Zhenzhong.

  ——The boss of Zhenzhong is the unlucky uncle who was nailed to the wall in front of Jiang Xia.

   Mr. Zhenzhong felt that everything in the pavilion was scrap metal, and he wanted to convert the pavilion into a hotel.

   Curator Ochiai, who works here, was very angry after hearing about it, and he wanted to kill the new boss. Wearing faceless knight armor, he was waiting in this hellish exhibition hall. Invited boss Zhenzhong over and nailed it to the wall.

   Jiang Xia looked at the bloodstains in the hall and felt that the case was not difficult to solve.

   Of course, the first step is to call the police first.

   Jiang Xia took out his mobile phone and was about to press it when he heard some movement in the corridor.

  ——A few people walked towards this exhibition hall while chatting.

   Hearing the voice, it turned out to be like two of his classmates, Maurilan and Suzuki Sonoko.

   Jiang Xia stopped calling the police and silently glanced at the terrifying corpse beside him and the sword on the corpse.

   Then realized that if you don't want to hear the screaming duet, it's better not to let them in...

  …

  Maolilan stopped in the corridor.

   She looked at the passage leading to the "Hell Exhibition Hall" and was a little puzzled: "I remember just now, there was a 'No Entry' sign here?"

  Suzuki Sonoko nodded: "Maybe the exhibits were being repaired just now, and they are now repaired."

   The two looked at the dark exhibition hall, looked at each other, and remembered the purpose of coming here today.

   There is a rumor recently that the knights' armor in this pavilion will come alive and move around in the middle of the night.

   So they came here with the idea of ​​"going to a haunted house".

   also brought a Conan by the way.

   is used to strengthen courage.

  It’s just that, after walking around for an afternoon, I never encountered anything strange.

   Now, there is only this "Hell Exhibition Hall", and they have not yet entered.

   Seeing that the "No Entry" sign was gone, Suzuki Sonoko was immediately moved:

   "Come on, let's go in and take a look. Maybe that armor is hidden in this exhibition hall!"

  Conan wore a pair of dead fish eyes and said tiredly: "Forget it, it's been a long time shopping, aren't you tired?"

   His faint protest was completely ignored.

   The two girls looked at each other, nodded to each other, and with courage, dragged him into the exhibition hall.

  Conan sighed in vicissitudes, struggling to stand up straight.

   But at this moment, the strength that was pulling him suddenly disappeared.

  ——Maurilan and Suzuki Sonoko stopped at their feet, not only did not move forward, but instead took a step back, tending to hug together and tremble.

  Conan was startled and looked forward alertly.

   I saw a gloomy figure in the dimly lit exhibition hall, walking out of the darkness step by step.

  ... But soon, Conan discovered that the so-called "spooky" was just an illusion caused by dim light.

  Actually, the person who came out was walking well, his posture and steps were normal, and he even looked a little familiar.

……Ok?

   Familiar?

  …

   Jiang Xia leaned against the door and looked at Maorilan and Suzuki Sonoko who were hugging each other shiveringly: "...Are you cold?"

   "No, no." Seeing Jiang Xia, Mao Lilan was disappointed and relieved.

   Disappointed that no ghosts were encountered.

   Thankfully...well, I didn't encounter a ghost.

  Suzuki Sonoko's mental journey is completely different from hers.

   She skipped the disappointment stage, doubled her joy directly, and greeted enthusiastically: "You also come to see that moving armor?"

   said, she pointed to the darkness behind Jiang Xia: "Is it in this exhibition hall?"

  Although Suzuki Sonoko has basically determined that Jiangxia's strategy is sss-level after various previous attempts, which is about equal to no chance.

   But that doesn't stop her from looking at faces.

   For a senior Yangou, as long as Jiang Xia appeared in front of her, Suzuki Sonoko's mood would skyrocket like a hormone.

   And if you look at it a few more times, you can still maintain the high vision when you are flirting with Han, which is very practical...

  Suzuki Sonoko said, and wanted to take Maurilan to the hall to see it.

   It happens that Jiang Xia is there, and the emboldening effect is definitely better than Conan.

   However, he only took one step, but was blocked by Conan in front of his legs.

   The two girls bowed their heads and found that the child's face was very ugly.

  Conan looked at Jiang Xia and asked, "Why is there blood on your shoes?"

   The others were startled, and all looked down at Jiang Xia's shoes.

   Including Jiangxia himself.

   Jiang Xia was wearing a pair of black sneakers today. The uppers were very clean, with only a little bit of new dust on the edges.

  Suzuki Sonoko and Maurilan breathed a sigh of relief, suspecting that this was a prank by the bear children.

   However, at this time, Jiang Xia glanced down at the ground and took a half step back.

As soon as    took his foot off, there was a half-light blood-colored shoe print where he stepped on it just now.

   "Ah." Jiang Xia was a little embarrassed. He took a step back and returned to the carpet-covered exhibition hall. He said apologetically, "I didn't pay attention, I stepped on it."

   said, Jiang Xia took out a handkerchief

  Conan saw him crouch down, as if he wanted to wipe off the blood on the ground.

  Conan: "..."

   He rushed over and stopped Jiang Xia with a whimper, stopping this behavior that looked like "destroying evidence".

  's face also became solemn: "Where did this blood come from?!"

  Conan has strong observation skills and is short in stature.

   As soon as Jiang Xia approached, he noticed that the color of the carpet Jiang Xia had stepped on was subtly different.

   After confirming that it was blood, because he had seen similar things before, at first, Conan suspected that the neighbor was hiding and cutting himself again.

   But after a closer look, he found that Jiang Xia looked very good, moved normally, and there were no strange wet marks on the black wristband of his left hand.

  However, from Jiangxia walking on the carpet all the way, there is still a little blood mark on the shoes...

   The blood he stepped on is definitely not the kind of wound that heals on its own with a tick or two... This may have taken a life!

   Unlike Conan, Maurilan and Suzuki Sonoko are not nervous.

   Mainly because Jiang Xia was not nervous at all.

   So they thought that Jiang Xia accidentally stepped on the red paint left by the staff. After all, there was a sign of "No Entry" hanging in this exhibition hall before, and it was suspected that it was being repaired.

   Seeing that Jiang Xia was stopped by the bear boy, the two also walked to the door, took out the handkerchief, and planned to help Jiang Xia wipe the footprint.

   approached, only to find that the color really looks like blood.

   Well, as expected of the **** showroom, the paints used are so unique.

  Suzuki Sonoko asked curiously, "What did you step on? Paint? Paint?"

   Jiang Xia said apologetically, "A pool of blood."

   "Oh, blood..." Suzuki Sonoko echoed in half, and the volume suddenly turned up, "Blood pool?!!"

   She raised her head in shock.

   He saw Jiang Xia squatting on the edge of the carpet, watching her mop the floor while raising his hand and pointing into the exhibition hall: "Someone died and was nailed to the wall, you guys..."

   He was about to say, "You better not go in, it's a little scary".

   Before he finished speaking, Conan rushed past him into the exhibition hall. At the same time, Conan pressed on his wrist to turn on the flashlight attached to the universal watch.

   - It looks like the first batch of equipment the Doctor made for him has arrived.
