After taking the group photo, Hattori Heiji took a group of people on a one-day trip to Osaka, but it happened to be during the off-season. It was just about eating ramen and visiting nearby attractions.
Soon, the sky gradually darkened. When Kazuye was buying Polaroids, he accidentally left his wallet in the store, and the group returned to Osaka Castle.
Just when He Ye was about to find his wallet, it started to rain.
No one had an umbrella with them. Just when everyone was worried about finding a place to hide from the rain, Fujino took out an umbrella from nowhere.
"..."
Everyone stared at the umbrella Fujino took out, and there was silence for a while.
Where did you get it from?
However, the confused people didn't pay that much attention. After all, they had known about Fujino's magic skills for more than a day or two.
After all, Kaitou Kidd can transform into a cloak or something at will, so it makes sense for Fujino to take out a few umbrellas...
However, Fujino didn’t bring many umbrellas.
Who is a serious person who carries so many umbrellas when going out?
Four umbrellas were given to him and Ye Xiaolan, and the two of them went to a nearby store to look for wallets.
The remaining three are Conan and Hattori, Akemi and the Shimogasa sisters, and Fujino and Ai Momiji hold one.
Fujino held an umbrella, Ooka Momiji squeezed on the right, and Haibara Ai squeezed on the left.
The drizzle fell dimly, and the three of them nestled in the rain.
"ah--"
But the moment of tranquility was broken by a scream.
Someone's burning!
Of course, burning is burning in the physical sense.
A man was on top of the Osaka Castle Castle, covered in fire and fell to the street not far away.
"?!"
Conan and Hattori frowned, and followed him if they felt something.
'Why do I always feel that these two people are a little excited to see dead people...'
Fujino watched the two people leave, his eyes slightly narrowed and speechless.
Should dying be a very serious matter?
How come these two people are like two Hasidic people who saw bones?
These two people seem to have always been like this.
That's okay.
Raising his eyes, he looked at the top of Osaka Castle's castle tower, thoughtfully.
Yesterday, the two old men told him that the two cases of burnt corpses near Osaka Castle might be related to the bandits from thirteen years ago. Those people might make a comeback recently. Today, they met a man who was on fire. It fell down...
Fujino briefly judged the situation, then sent the other girls away to find Kazuye and Xiaolan.
After all, they were burning a body that fell from such a high place. The death scene must have been tragic. It would not be good for a girl to see such a terrifying thing.
…………
Inside a store near Osaka Castle.
He Ye successfully found his wallet.
"Thank you, aunt!"
He Ye happily took the wallet and checked it.
"Heye, why are all the amulets in your wallet?"
Xiaolan couldn't help but glance at the colorful talisman bag, and couldn't help but wonder.
"Of course it's used to ward off evil spirits!"
He Ye said seriously: "Every time you come to Osaka to play, there will be a murder case. This time I asked for so many talismans. It seems that these talismans must have worked. This time we went out to play and there was no murder case!" "
"Really……"
Xiaolan smiled helplessly.
"What, you said there was a man over there who was on fire and fell from the castle tower?!"
But before He Ye could feel happy, the proprietress beside him couldn't help shouting.
He Ye: "..."
She silently took out several strings of amulets from her purse.
"It seems... these amulets are of no use."
Xiaolan, who was on the side, couldn't help but laugh bitterly.
It seems that the power of the curse has once again overcome the amulet.
No……
It was probably the power of death that defeated the talisman.
[In the face of the power of death, no matter how powerful the talisman is, it is useless]
——Personal test by Mumu Shisan
"Are you here?"
At this time, several girls walked in from outside the store.
"Why are you here?"
He Ye turned around and looked at everyone in surprise: "How many of them are there?"
"Fujino asked us to come find you."
Ooka Momiji explained: "A few of them went to see the man who fell near the castle tower... and they asked us to eat first and not go to the crime scene."
"That man fell from the castle tower on fire."
Hui Yuan Ai said calmly: "It seems that he was afraid that we would see the dead state of the corpse, so he said that."
"In that case, let's go have dinner first."
Xiaolan suggested: "Xiao Ai is right, if you see such a corpse, you will definitely not be able to eat dinner..."
"Oh well."
Kazuye nodded: "I do know that there is a good restaurant across from the new bridge."
…………
When Fujino went over to check, Conan and Hattori were nowhere to be seen. At this time, the surroundings were already surrounded by people eating melons.
As for the corpse, it was in a miserable state of being burned, with broken limbs and twisted limbs, and it was even smoking...
Fujino was a little suspicious. Aren't these melon-eating people afraid that they would not be able to eat at night when they saw the corpse?
Could it be that with the existence of Hattori Heiji in Osaka, the melon-eating people have already developed the same objective calmness as the rice flower citizens towards various tragic situations?
"Consultant Fujino, you are here too."
The big version headquarters is opposite, and Otaki Goro rushed to the scene with several police officers.
Fujino nodded slightly: "Well, I went out with Hattori today...and then I happened to encounter a case."
"Hattori is here too?"
After hearing this, Otaki Goro glanced at the corpse and seemed not surprised.
Well, the stone hammer of death in the west is over.
"The deceased should be a man named Yuji Kato."
Fujino knelt down and looked at the body, then glanced at the group members of the Cosplay Travel Agency he had seen during the day among the onlookers behind him: "As for the companions, they should be the people we met during the day..."
"those people?"
"We found it!"
Before Otaki could cross-examine, Hattori and Conan ran back holding umbrellas and holding an evidence bag with a lighter in their hands: "We found a lighter on the top of the castle tower. This should be the one that made him burn it. thing."
"The lid of the lighter is closed."
Conan mentioned: "Moreover, there was a dry fan-shaped piece under the lighter. Before the lighter was put down, there must have been a round thing that blocked the rain. Then Mr. Kato picked up the thing and put the lighter down. Go down."
As he said that, he smiled at Hattori Heiji and said, "What I said is right, Heiji-nii!"
"Ah, that's right."
Hattori Heiji nodded and glanced at Conan.
This kid actually stole his words...
After coming back to his senses, he continued: "There are fragments near the lighter. I think that round thing must be related to those fragments."
"What about the photos and fragments?"
Fujino asked the two of them, "Is it possible that you didn't collect it?"
Conan: "..."
Hattori Heiji:"……"
Collect... Well, it seems that there is indeed no collection.
"..."
Fujino didn't expect that these two people would be so unprofessional.
Before the police arrived at the scene to preserve evidence, they took away the evidence from the crime scene and then destroyed the scene by hand.
When he came to his senses, he glanced at the police around him and found that he was not surprised.
These people did not go to the roof the first time they came to the scene. Instead, they wandered around the place where the body fell to collect evidence...
People are numb.
Everyone is unprofessional, and among the short ones, the best ones are the ones.
"Officer Otaki, the deceased's belongings have been sorted out!"
The voice of the police officer on the side broke the silence of several people.
Hearing this, Otaki, who was in charge at the scene, didn't pursue too much. After all, he was the son of the chief... After watching the other party grow up, he naturally wouldn't say anything.
So, several people turned to look at the victim's belongings.
The relics included keys, wallet, cigarettes, phone, watch, a fragment, and a scroll.
"Scroll, there is a dragon character on it?"
Otaki picked up the scroll, opened it, and gave a confused sound.
"well?!"
The people in the tour group behind him were all surprised when they heard the sound, and their expressions became strange.
Fujino noticed the expressions of several people and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Looking back, he put on white gloves and picked up the fragment.
The fragments were yellow ceramic shards that looked like they belonged to a jar, and they had some gold dust attached to them.
Exactly the same as the fragment I saw last night...
