Detective Conan: Knifeman? I'm a good citizen of Beihua

"...That's what happened."

Maori Kogoro finished speaking, scratching his head in annoyance: "Who would have thought that he would be hit by a car just after turning a corner."

This is really unfair.

The driver of the white car was named Wu Youbaishu, a tall and thin man. He had a bitter look on his face as he explained to the police, "I really didn't mean to do that. I just lowered my head, and he appeared out of nowhere and I was knocked down..."

He does bear some responsibility for this, but it's also really bad luck.

After listening to the testimonies of several people at the scene, Megure Jusan nodded and turned to look at the accident scene: "Are there any other witnesses at the scene?"

Takagi Wataru shook his head: "The others around here only came over after hearing the noise. These were basically the only ones at the scene at the time."

Megure Jusan pondered: "From the current perspective, it does seem like an accident."

Maori Kogoro was confused: "So who is this guy? Why did he smash the window of my office?"

He just installed that!!!

Megure Jusan: "Don't worry, brother Mori, we will definitely investigate these thoroughly."

However, when the police began to examine the body on the ground, they pulled off the body's sports hoodie and mask, revealing a familiar face.

Wu Youbaishu opened his eyes wide and took a few quick steps: "Nakajin!"

Megure Jusan immediately noticed something was wrong. He walked up to Takeyu Momoki and asked, "Do you know the deceased?"

Wu Youbaishu's face turned completely pale.

Conan held his chin thoughtfully.

Smashing someone's glass for no reason, and being hit and killed by an acquaintance while running away...this is interesting.

Soon, after Wu Youbaishu's introduction, everyone knew the identity of the deceased.

The deceased was named Nakatsu Yumihei, who had just turned 30 this year and was a long-distance runner. Coincidentally, Takeyu Momoki was his coach. The two had known each other for more than ten years and had a very good relationship.

But who could have thought that Wu Youbaishu would accidentally kill his good friend.

Maori Kogoro suddenly realized: "No wonder this guy runs so fast, he is a professional athlete! I was wondering why I almost lost him behind."

Baichuan Qiu, who had been silent beside him, had a slight glint in his golden eyes.

Conan grabbed the corner of Takeyu Baishu's clothes and asked in a baby voice, "Excuse me, Mr. Takeyu, why did you look down while driving just now?"

Wu Youbaishu was stunned for a moment, then said: "Zhongjin sent me a message saying that he left his lighter in my car, so I looked down."

"You mean the deceased sent you messages normally before he died?" Conan keenly noticed the abnormality.

Takagi Wataru, who had been taking notes, also frowned. "But according to Mr. Maori's testimony just now, they were chasing the deceased the whole time. How could they have the leisure to run and send you a message at the same time?"

Wu Youbaishu suddenly panicked: "Really, if you don't believe me, I can show you my phone."

After saying that, he took out his cell phone and showed it to everyone.

[A few minutes ago] [Nakatsu: Did I forget my lighter in your car? Remember to keep it for me.]

To prevent misunderstandings, Wu Youbaishu explained, "My phone messages can be automatically transferred to the car speakers, so I heard his message immediately and subconsciously looked down."

If he lowers his head to look at his phone, then he will have an even greater responsibility.

Takagi Wataru took it and examined it, then went to find the phone of the deceased, Yumio Nakatsu, and nodded to Jusan Megure: "It was indeed sent by Mr. Nakatsu."

Wu Youbaishu breathed a sigh of relief.

Maori Kogoro was puzzled: "So, it turns out that Mr. Nakatsu harmed himself?"

Everyone was silent.

From this perspective, it seems that Yumihei Nakatsu himself bears most of the responsibility.

"Then may I ask Mr. Takeyu, do you know why Mr. Nakatsu came to the Mori Detective Agency and smashed the window?" asked Takagi Wataru.

Wu Youbaishu looked bewildered: "Sorry, I really don't know."

"Maybe he wants to find Uncle Maori to investigate something."

A child's voice sounded, and Takeyu Baishu lowered his head and looked at Conan with a thoughtful look on his face.

"To be honest, Nakatsu has always suspected that one of his teammates used drugs during the game and wanted to report him, but he had no evidence, so he only complained to me privately."

He looked at Maori Kogoro: "Maybe he came to Maori Detective Agency to find a detective to help investigate this matter."

Maori Kogoro was not quite convinced by this reason. He put his hands on his hips and said angrily, "Then why did you smash my window?"

It doesn't make sense at all!

Wu Youbaishu shrank his neck: "Sorry, I really don't know much about this matter, I'm just guessing."

Looking at the simple and clear scene, and thinking about this case full of doubts, Megure Jusan didn't dare to directly declare it an accident. He held his forehead with a headache and said, "Let's contact the family first."

"As for the drug violation that Mr. Wu You mentioned, please tell us in more detail."

……

Shirakawa Qiu stood not far away, quietly watching the scene over there, and did not go up directly to act as a detective.

System: "Host, look at the other Xiao Hei, they are always working diligently, and then look at yourself, sigh——"

Baichuan Qiu: "...This is a bit too much."

System: "This is called no comparison, no harm."

Baichuan Qiu ignored the system's chattering, turned around and walked to the street entrance, retracing his steps and returning to the fork in the road where he had asked the system before.

This is a somewhat narrow path. On the left is the road leading to the Mika Sports Center, which is also the scene of the car accident, while on the right is a road leading to the city.

Baichuanqiu stood at the fork in the road and looked around.

System: "Host, what are you doing?"

Shirakawa Akane: "Reconstruct the murderer's method of killing."

System: "Eh? Host, you can do this?"

Bai Chuanqiu held his chin in his hand and said, "The murderer's ideas coincide with mine. It's not difficult to figure out his method."

"Ding—Criminal Mastery Talent activated, system panel updated."

System: “???” What did the host do again?

"Host name: Baichuanqiu

Current title: A novice who knows a thing or two (if you don't use your skills, you're still useless.)

Title Evaluation: Learned some skills, but still incompetent. (A blackie who first learned to run away is not a good blackie. Don't tell me you can't kill, you can only run away - hehe, how shameful.)

Talent: Criminal Mastery (You can learn any criminal skill without any instruction after just one look—it's a waste of talent to have such a skill in your possession.)

Skills Mastered: Bomb Maniac, Escape Artist (Escape is also an art form, and physical strength and endurance are the foundation of everything. With your fragile body, you can only use half of your skills at most.)

Current progress: Not updated yet.

"Ahhh!"

The system screamed excitedly: "Updated! Updated! The host has finally learned a new skill! This is amazing!"

A look of satisfaction also flashed in Baichuan Qiu's eyes. He opened the system panel, ignored those mocking words, and focused on the new skill [Escape Master].

Seeing that he could only use half of his abilities at best, Baichuan Qiu was a little disappointed.

His health has never been good. He originally thought that after learning similar skills, his physical fitness would also improve, but he did not expect that he would still be limited by his physical condition.

The system didn't notice Bai Chuanqiu's emotions and continued to flatter him: "How did the host do it? It's amazing!"

Bai Chuanqiu frowned, but didn't keep the secret: "Because the murderer is a long-distance runner."

The guy used his professional skills to commit the crime, and he just happened to watch from the sidelines, using his criminal proficiency talent to learn the murderer's professional skills.

Originally, he just wanted to test the learning range of this golden finger, but he didn't expect that it would really surprise Baichuan Qiu.
