Chapter 54: In the manga version, it's gin wine
Chapter 54 The comic version is gin
In the days when Conan was in chaos and tried to scientifically explain the "prophecy phenomenon", Jiang Xia drove a puppet to the black market and got his new passbook.
Gold coins have been processed. After deducting all kinds of commissions, there are more than 700 million left. The fees charged by the middlemen are a bit dark, but after all, it is the first time Anonymous has appeared in the black market, and there is no network and reputation value, so the price is fair.
After getting the money, Jiang Xia took the time to go to museums, jewelry stores, art galleries and other places to look around.
But like a year ago, I couldn't find what I wanted.
The huge sum of money in the passbook suddenly became boring.
In the end, in order to suppress the desire to consume after becoming rich, Jiang Xia went to the green plant market and bought a few plants that were not cost-effective but very beautiful. I wanted to buy potted plants that I didn’t buy before.
After raising the potted plants until they bloom, Suzuki Sonoko sent a message: [See you at the station tomorrow! ]
Jiang Xia was startled.
Soon he remembered that after the murder scene of the last KTV tragic accident, Suzuki Sonoko was reluctant to provide another ghost hunter... Cough, the place to play - the villa her sister bought in the mountains of Kyoto.
Suzuki Sonoko is the daughter of the chairman of the Suzuki Foundation. The Suzuki consortium is synonymous with the "rich" in the world.
They have a lot of villas. The most eye-catching thing is that almost every one of them will have a murder.
Jiang Xia was a little envious.
At the same time, he was still a little puzzled - there were too many villas in the Suzuki family, and he was not sure which one had an accident this time.
But since it has something to do with Suzuki Sonoko's sister, there should only be two or three cases. Specifically, we'll find out when we go.
Even if you don't remember it at all, it doesn't matter.
Jiang Xia just wanted to follow along to pick up ghosts.
He only needs to ensure that he will not die, and occasionally save the cute classmate who will take the initiative to kill him...
…
Jiang Xia asked Amuro to leave in advance.
At noon the next day, he packed up and arrived at the Shinkansen station.
Soon, Jiang Xia found the three companions - Mao Lilan, Suzuki Sonoko, and Conan who was never absent.
After Conan became smaller, he gradually began to let himself go.
Before, when Kudo Shinichi was a high school student, he was embarrassed to play with girls.
But now, as long as Mao Lilan travels, Conan will become her pet, sticking upright.
It was a bit boring to ride in the car. On the way, Suzuki Sonoko tried to have a long talk with Jiang Xia, but failed.
—— It can be seen that Jiang Xia is trying to chat with her, but the two have not found a common topic, and the chatting process is very difficult. In the end, Suzuki Sonoko decided to take it as soon as possible, so as not to talk about Jiang Xia's psychological shadow, and to develop sustainably.
So the topic quickly turned to another person - Conan, the child who appeared out of thin air.
Conan doesn't mind being discussed by his classmates, he made up anyway.
But seeing that Jiang Xia was also listening to the chat, Conan gradually became a little restless.
Last time, since KTV left, Conan felt like his vest was torn off.
He originally thought that Jiang Xia would ask him about getting smaller afterwards, but he didn't. Jiang Xia was doing everything as usual, as if he had found nothing.
Conan then comforted himself in his heart-even if the appearances of "Edogawa Conan" and "Kudou Shinichi" are exactly the same, Jiang Xia, as his neighbor, has not missed his appearance as a child; even if Conan was before and after Kudo Shinichi's disappearance , suddenly appeared in the doctor's house; even if Conan was often inattentive and behaved not like an ordinary elementary school student, but like an all-rounder who knew a lot, even if...
Conan: "..."
He couldn't help holding his head again.
...Don't deceive yourself any longer.
Jiang Xia could not have guessed that "Conan" was related to "Kudo Shinichi".
As for why he didn't come to ask... Maybe he felt that the two were not familiar with each other and didn't want to spy on the secrets of the neighbors.
It could also be that Jiang Xia, as a detective, still couldn't accept the absurdity of adults becoming smaller and violating the law of conservation of matter, so he was deliberately escaping.
But now, Suzuki Sonoko and Maurilan suddenly chatted about the flawed life experience of "Edogawa Conan"...
Conan always feels that, with such an episode, even if Jiang Xia respects science, he will definitely match "Conan" and "Kudou Shinichi".
Conan sighed, tangled in his heart, if Jiang Xia really came to ask, what should he say?
If we tell the truth, then the topic will definitely involve that terrifying organization, and at the same time Jiang Xia will be involved, causing Jiang Xia to become the target of the black-clothed organization because he knows too much.
Thinking of this, Conan raised his head worriedly, just to find Jiang Xia looking at him.
Conan squeezed out an embarrassing smile.
At the same time, he thought, no, Jiang Xia is innocent. Until the last moment, you should try to cover your vest as much as possible...
In order to achieve this goal... First of all, Jiang Xia cannot see his guilty expression, otherwise it will increase his suspicion.
Thinking like this, Conan jumped out of his seat and said to Mao Lilan obediently, "Sister Xiaolan, let me go to the bathroom." Then he walked away decisively.
——As long as Jiang Xia can't see him, he can't observe him, he can't find his guilty conscience, and he can't pierce the last window paper, and he won't get involved in the black organization.
The more Conan thought about it, the more he felt that this wave of escape from him, although shameless, was very effective.
After left Jiang Xia's sight, Conan breathed a sigh of relief.
However, at this time, the car just stopped, and two people got on the train one after the other.
Conan was stunned when he saw the person getting in the car.
—those were two very familiar tall men in black.
Conan looked at one of them with the wide chin of the sunglasses, and then looked at the other Yin Changzhi, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and cold sweat dripped from his cheeks.
... These are the two culprits who poured strange poison on him and made him smaller!
