After traveling through Detective Conan, I became a popular person

Not long after, Akai Shuichi put one of the man's arms on his shoulders, held the man's waist with the other hand, and returned to the beach together.

Upon seeing this, the staff on the beach immediately began to evacuate the crowd. "Excuse me, everyone, please step back. Please step back."

Shuichi Akai laid the dead body flat on the ground, and Shinichi Kudo also walked forward holding Shuichi Akai's hat.

"Can this person be saved?" asked Kudo Shinichi.

"It's impossible for him to be rescued." Akai Shuichi replied.

"What is that bag?" Kudo Shinichi asked curiously when he saw that there was a bag on Akai Shuichi.

"This bag is a clue to this man's true identity."

Akai Shuichi turned his head and looked at the shop behind him, saying, "More than that, I have something to ask of you. Isn't there a counter selling swimsuits and the like over at the Sea House?"

"Please ask the clerk over there if any customers who were soaking wet bought T-shirts, swimsuits or beach slippers after their car fell into the sea."

"I guess there was another person in the car, and he must have escaped from the car and mixed in with the guests at the beach."

Akai Shuichi turned around and looked at Kudo Shinichi and asked, "How about it, can you do it?"

"Holmes' apprentice." Akai Shuichi raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Well, of course." Kudo Shinichi said firmly.

"Here you go." Kudo Shinichi returned the hat in his hand to Akai Shuichi.

"Thank you." Akai Shuichi said with a curved eyebrow.

Akai Shuichi then saw Hoshino Hitomi walking towards him, so he asked, "Hoshino, can you help me call the police to come over?"

"My cell phone is out of battery, but I asked the little boy's mother to call the police. The police are on their way now and should be here soon." Hoshino Hitomi looked at Kudo Shinichi's back and replied.

"Okay." Akai Shuichi said with a smile upon hearing this.

Akai Shuichi then called out to Hoshino Hitomi and said, "By the way, Hoshino."

"Could you please tell the parking lot manager to stop any guests who are soaking wet or trying to leave in a swimsuit? Tell him that if there are such people, they might be accomplices of the bad guys."

Hoshino Hitomi smiled faintly and said, "About this, I just went out and asked my bodyguards outside to do it, don't worry."

"Yeah." Akai Shuichi smiled and nodded in response.

"How was it? Do you have any impression?" Kudo Shinichi asked a male clerk.

"People who just bought clothes like T-shirts and put them on immediately, after that car slammed into the sea."

The male clerk thought about it for a while, then replied: "I remember there were two or three people, but I don't remember what they looked like."

Kudo Shinichi continued to ask: "Is there anyone whose hair is soaked?"

The male clerk said helplessly: "Everyone is soaked because they come to the beach to play."

Haneda Hideyoshi said, "I think there should be three people."

Upon hearing this, Kudo Shinichi quickly turned his gaze to Haneda Hideyoshi.

Haneda Hideyoshi held a dark blue T-shirt in his hand and explained, "Because I have been staying in this store since a while ago, wondering whether to buy this shirt or not."

Kudo Shinichi asked: "Is it true?"

Haneda Hideyoshi put on a pair of round-framed glasses and said with a smile, "Because I play shogi, I am very good at memorizing things."

Not long after, the police finally arrived at the crime scene.

A middle-aged male police officer squatted beside the dead body and asked Kudo Yukiko, "You said the car ran over the fence on the other side of the cliff and fell directly into the sea, right?"

"Yes." Yukiko Kudo responded.

The male police officer asked: "Then, this man was the driver of the car, so you pulled him up and called the police?"

"Although it was my fault for calling the police, he was the one who pulled this man out of the sea." Kudo Yukiko turned her head and looked at Akai Shuichi.

The male police officer looked at Akai Shuichi and asked, "Who are you?"

Akai Shuichi replied calmly: "I am just an ordinary international student currently studying in the United States. I am on a rare trip back to Japan today and am here on vacation with my family."

"But when you reported the case, you said there was another person in the car. Is that true?" asked the male police officer.

"Yes." Akai Shuichi responded.

"What's your reason for saying that?"

Shuichi Akai explained: "Because the passenger window was the only one that was fully open, that's why I think so. The car was right-hand drive, and if there was only one person in the car, it would be too unnatural to only open the passenger window."

"I guess the other passenger opened the window and escaped from the car before the seawater filled the car, blended in with the guests at the beach, and left."

The male police officer asked in confusion: "But even if we don't open the car window, as long as we open the door, won't it be ok..."

Shuichi Akai calmly analyzed: "It's because of the water pressure. When the car rushed into the water, there was still air inside the car, so the door couldn't be opened due to the water pressure. That's why the person in the passenger seat chose to open the window and escape from the car."

The male police officer immediately understood what was going on when he heard this. "So that guy abandoned his companions and ran away alone..."

Akai Shuichi said: "No, the man was not wearing a seat belt when the accident happened."

When the male police officer heard that the man was not wearing a seat belt, his face was shocked.

Shuichi Akai then explained: "So because of the reaction force of the car hitting the guardrail, his head hit the windshield hard, causing a cervical fracture and immediate death. It is reasonable to speculate that after falling into the water, his companions found that he did not respond when they called him, and judged that he should be hopeless, so they decided to open the car window and escape from the car on their own."

The male police officer still looked puzzled and said: "But in this case, why did he pretend to be a customer? Since he met an unexpected victim, as long as he was fair and square..."

Akai Hideichi said calmly, "I think that's because that person has reasons to hide his identity, so he hides in secret."

Upon hearing this, Hitomi Hoshino silently glanced at Shuichi Akai who was standing beside her with a calm expression, and thought to herself: It seems that Shuichi Akai is about to find the murderer, and it seems that she doesn't need to do anything next.

"Why do you have to hide your identity?" the male police officer asked.

"Did a watch store get robbed nearby just now?" asked Shuichi Akai.

"Yes, indeed. About an hour ago, we received a report that a watch shop one kilometer away from here was robbed by two robbers."

The male police officer looked at Akai Shuichi with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "This matter has not even been reported on the Internet. How do you know about it?"

Shuichi Akai turned his head and looked at the bag on the ground. "Because this bag was placed on the back seat of the vehicle that sank into the sea. Inside the bag were a large number of brand-name watches, all with price tags tied to them."
