Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 82

   Jiang Xia opened his eyes in the pottery classroom.

   As soon as I opened it, I almost fell asleep again – I drove so far in an anonymous drive, and I used a reappearance of Tengu Ghost’s death, which consumed a lot of energy.

   However, before falling asleep again, Jiang Xia’s eyes stopped on someone in the pottery classroom.

   It was an old grandfather with an artistic Mediterranean hairstyle and murderous aura wrapped around him.

   Jiang Xia looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and decided to take a sip of a ghost mint in luxury, so as not to be affected by excessive sleepiness and to do the painful multiple-choice question of “murderous or ghost” later.

   When the other people were clichés, and when the pottery was doing pottery, Jiang Xia pushed the door and went out, and shared a ghost mint with the monk ghost who just put a skill.

   He had to take back what he said earlier.

   The reappearance of death is still somewhat useful, at least to allow some guilty people to jump off the cliff by themselves.

   is just very tiring to use – the main reason is that the wear and tear of the puppet is too great, and the energy lost is much more than normal.

  Fortunately, Jiangxia had a lot of ghost mints before. When it comes to replenishing energy, this thing works right away. As soon as one went down, Jiang Xia quickly got out of the state of being able to fall asleep at any time.

   After adding the meal, Jiang Xia didn’t go back to the house immediately.

  After the puppets are usually scattered, the ghosts and the bound shikigami can directly return to the tattoo on Jiang Xia’s heart.

   But like this time, the new shikigami and murderousness are not bound, so I can only ask Miyano Akemi to help bring it back.

   Jiang Xia was waiting at the door. After a while, Miyano Akemi floated back panting with shikigami and murderous aura on her back.

  Normal ghosts are the size of a pillow, while shikigami are usually the size of a palm. The four shikigami that were originally on the murderer’s body were rolled up into a small package by Miyano Akemi with murderous intent and carried on his back.

   Miyano Akemi floated to the door, put the murderous aura and shikigami at Jiang Xia’s feet, and fell to the ground, paralyzed into a piece of ghost dryness. It is very tiring to travel back and forth across mountains and rivers.

  Jiang Xia rubbed her head, rolled a few ghost mints with the murderous aura she brought back, and ignited one of them.

   Miyano Akemi smelled the aroma, raised her head and looked left and right, her eyes quickly set on Jiang Xia’s hand. She squirmed over and hugged Jiang Xia’s hand holding the cigarette, happily eating.

   Jiang Xia returned to the pottery classroom after feeding the ghost.

  …

Before   , Amuro planned to let Jiang Xia make up the pottery lessons temporarily, so as to gain the favor of the high-level potters, and the convenience kits were close.

   Who knew that Jiang Xia had just entered the door, and Jiang Xia had turned into the sleep-standby state of yesterday.

  Amuro had not observed Jiang Xia for a long time before, so he couldn’t be sure whether this was Jiang Xia’s normal state or whether he was really possessed by something strange.

   However, no matter what it was, the plan for Jiang Xia, a “talented apprentice”, to gain goodwill has all gone bankrupt.

   But fortunately, although Jiang Xia fell off the chain, his two classmates were very handy, and they were both lovely girls, very much appreciated by the grandfather, and the atmosphere in the pottery classroom gradually became harmonious.

   Jiang Xia returned to the classroom, got some news from the helper, and activated his “prophecy” ability by the way.

   The murderous Mediterranean grandfather named Mino Soyuki is the manager of this pottery classroom, and he is also the junior and apprentice of the national treasure-level pottery master “Kikuemon”.

   Mino Soyuki has a daughter. A few years ago, the young apprentice of Kikuemon became the son-in-law of Mino Soyuki, and the relationship between the two families became better.

   However, two years ago, the only daughter of Mino Zongzhi died in a car accident, and Mino Zongzhi was hit hard.

   Jiang Xia looked at Mino Zongzhi’s murderous aura, and then looked at the young and beautiful female employee in the store, and vaguely guessed the source of his murderous aura.

   Mino Soyuki’s son-in-law – the little apprentice of Kikuemon – cheated on the beautiful female staff in the store. The death of Mino Souyuki’s daughter in a car accident was not an accident, but after finding out that her husband was cheating, she was disheartened and deliberately committed suicide.

   Mino Soyuki decided to kill the scumbag who cheated on him, and then put the blame on the female employee.

   Jiang Xia didn’t want to intervene. According to his experience, this kind of murderous intent to avenge relatives, especially parents for their children, is really hard to dispel.

   Originally, he wanted to expose the murderer without any hassle, gain a wave of reputation, and pick up the ghost by the way.

   However, after a while, the cheating son-in-law came back from outside.

   Jiang Xia was a little startled when he saw his son-in-law, and realized that the actual situation had deviates from his “prophecy” – his son-in-law was also wrapped in a murderous aura.

   Jiang Xia looked at the murderous Mediterranean grandfather, and at the equally murderous son-in-law, lost in thought.

  Although he couldn’t tell who his son-in-law wanted to kill for the time being, judging from his calm reaction when he saw Mino Sect, the son-in-law’s goal was not the old man who wanted to kill him, but someone else.

Jiang Xia secretly calculated: maybe he can pick up the shikigami caused by the murder of his son-in-law first, and then if the son-in-law is not caught, he can still pick up the shikigami of his son-in-law who was killed by the old man… This is better than killing the son-in-law immediately. Much more cost-effective.

   Thinking of this, Jiang Xia stood up, glanced at Mino Mongyuki who was looking for an opportunity to kill, and rolled up his sleeves.

   Today, let the old man see what it means to be thirsty for knowledge.
