CH 17.1

On the way to repair the bike, Jiang Xia recalled what happened during this period.

So far, he had encountered a child ghost and also a murderous aura that can be completely collected.

Both things appeared recently, and both were related to the cases Jiang Xia saw in the comics.

In other words...

if he wanted to pick up other ghosts, he needed to get in touch with the plotline?

Jiang Xia: "..." 

When it comes to murder cases, the best tool was probably Conan himself.

But now, Conan lived in the Maori Detective Agency, so it was not easy to abduct him.

And Jiang Xia didn't want to be Kogoro Maori's apprentice.

After all, he is a worker of the black organization.

If he becomes a famous detective, maybe one day, his firm will be used as a tool by the organization, and the people in the firm will definitely be targeted... In short, they are very deceitful.

Moreover, judging from the matter of Yoko Okino. Even if Conan was not present, Jiang Xia could still pick up a ghost. A grim reaper with the skin of a primary school student was not a necessary condition for picking up ghosts.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Xia's mind flashed.

——Why don’t you start your own detective agency?

If he remembers correctly, all the "handsome high school detectives" in this world are very good at attracting murder cases.

He also happened to be a high school student.

Maybe as long as one more detective buff is stacked, ghosts and murderous aura will come rolling in by themselves?

***

Let's do it.

The second day after repairing the bike and returning home, Jiang Xia went to the Mihua Library.

Then he successfully found a popular science magazine related to detectives on the bookshelf in the professional area.

In his impression, the island country currently stipulates that 20 years old is an adult, but in fact, many things can be done from the age of 18.

For example, taking various statutory license exams, signing some purchase contracts alone, and of course, watching some specific movies and games.

***

Jiang Xia flipped through the detective handbook, and found that it was exactly as he thought: at the age of 18, he could already work as a detective.

However, looking further down, Jiang Xia saw another rule.

——To open a detective agency, you need to submit an application for opening to the Public Safety bureau.

For those under 20, an additional letter of consent from the legal guardian must be submitted.

Legal guardian?

Jiang Xia: "..."

He thought for a while about the two monuments of Jiang Xia Kirishi's parents, as well as a guardian just in name who eluded him and gradually lost contact. The hand holding the book loosened slightly, and the detective handbook closed with a clatter.

The serious and old-fashioned cover book reappeared in front of his eyes as if mocking his innocence.

...An 18-year-old minor is indeed still a minor.

Could it be that he can only find an adult to become an apprentice?

Speaking of adults...

Jiang Xia suddenly remembered something.

He picked up the detective handbook thoughtfully and turned back to the front page.

——Just now, when the pages of the book were closed, he saw an impressive name.
