People in Detective Conan are going crazy over the comments section.

When Asakawa Yu arrived with Akemi, they saw a large group of people standing at the entrance, not just Hattori and his group, but also several police officers.

"How is it?" Asakawa Hachiko asked Hattori simply.

“They said that person just disappeared for some reason, and…” Hattori pointed to the vaulting box in the warehouse, ““According to them, it seems that the person was just lying in front of that box.”

"Disappeared?" Mingmei asked in surprise.

"Hmm." Hattori nodded. "I just don't know how that person is doing now, or where he went."

At that moment, a voice reached everyone's ears.

"Excuse me, are you students from Xinnei University?"

When everyone turned around, they saw that it was the stadium staff who had found them.

"Yes, that's right. How can I help you?"

"Here's what happened. A few minutes ago, I received a strange phone call at the registration desk. He asked me to go to the warehouse to find some people from Xinnei University, and then asked you all to go to the changing room next to the swimming pool."

Upon hearing this, the students from Xinnei University were immediately enraged.

"It must be a special visit!"

"Hey kid, haven't you had enough fun yet?!"

"Then let's go take a look."

When everyone arrived at the changing room next to the swimming pool, the scene before them made their eyes widen in disbelief.

"I...I'll see you!"

The man was leaning against the wall with his head down, a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, and a sharpened samurai sword in his arms.

Upon seeing this, Hattori rushed forward, first using a handkerchief to turn off the still-on shower, and then checking on Sumi's condition.

"Judging from this, they must have left quite a while ago."

Asakawa Yu stood calmly at the doorway, observing and casually glancing at her surroundings.

"What...what nonsense are you spouting! Look at him..."

"No, Asakawa-nii is right, this person... is really dead this time!"

Bang! ! !

Suddenly, a cloud of gloom settled over everyone's hearts, and their expressions began to change.

"I see he...is dead?!"

Hattori tried to touch his nose and mouth, but there was no breath there. Clearly, the man named Sumi was dead.

………………

After the police arrived, Asakawa Yu and the others talked with Officer Otaki and his team for a while, and then left the locker room to get some fresh air.

"Asakawa-kun, what's your opinion on this case?"

After much deliberation, Hattori decided to first ask Asakawa Yu for his opinion.

"How do you see it? Look with your eyes. And Hattori, shouldn't you be preparing for your competition instead of getting involved in this case?"

Upon hearing Asakawa Yu's words, Hattori's eyes widened in surprise.

"What are you talking about, Asakawa-nii? You know a murder has happened here! How can I just go to the competition with a clear conscience?"

"But Hattori, Kazuha has been looking for you ever since the beginning. Look over there."

Looking in the direction Mingmei was pointing, they saw a beautiful figure rushing towards them in the distance.

"Heiji! What are you doing? Why aren't you eating your lunch? The semi-finals start in an hour! And..."

Kazuha glanced at Asakawa Yu and Akemi standing behind Hattori and said angrily, "You actually brought Asakawa-nii and the others out with you? What the hell are you up to?!"

Hattori's already dark face grew even more impatient after being lectured by Kazuha the moment they met.

"Seriously, are you kidding me? Someone's been killed!" Hattori pointed behind him. "A murder happened in that changing room over there!"

"A murder??? Really?!" Kazuha exclaimed in shock.

"So, I just can't figure it out, I'm not in the mood for the competition at all," Hattori said with a helpless expression.

"In that case, why don't you talk to Shinichi Kudo about it? Didn't you ask him to come over?"

Kazuha's words were like a wake-up call, instantly giving Hattori a new idea.

"Besides, you have Brother Asakawa here. Even without you, the case will be solved quickly. Just focus on the competition!"

Upon hearing Kazuha's words, Hattori's previously excited expression froze instantly. His hand, which had been dialing the phone, stopped abruptly, and he put his phone back in his pocket with a dark expression.

"So, we'll leave this to Kudo and the others to worry about, and you can go and participate in the competition!"

"Listen to me clearly, you are not allowed to tell him about this!" Pointing at Kazuha's chest, Hattori turned and glanced in the direction of Asakawa Yu and Akemi.

"Asakawa-nii, I will definitely find out the truth about this case!" After saying that, Hattori turned and ran away, still holding his phone to check the time.

"Kudo will arrive in an hour. I'll solve this mystery, even if it costs me my life!"

Seeing Hattori had already run far away, Kazuha couldn't understand it at all, so she stomped her foot and pouted.

"Seriously, what is Hattori doing?!"

Asakawa Yu and Akemi, who had been standing there the whole time, had witnessed the entire conversation between the two, and were just watching them with smiles in their eyes.

"Alright, alright, I think Hattori must have his own reasons."

"But Ayami-nee... the finals are about to start, and if Hattori doesn't go and prepare now, he might miss it..."

Kazuha explained with a furrowed brow, clearly anxious that Hattori might miss the finals.

"But he's Hattori, don't you trust him?"

This one sentence immediately swallowed all of Kazuha's worries, and a thoughtful expression gradually appeared on her face.

After thinking for a long time, Kazuha finally slowly raised his head and looked at Akemi with a smile.

"That's true. He's Hattori Heiji, after all. I should trust him a bit more."

“Besides…” Kazuha turned to look at Asakawa Yu, “Asakawa-nii is here too. I believe that with you here, the case will be solved quickly!”

"Okay, let's go have lunch now and wait for him." Seeing that Kazuha's worries had subsided considerably, Akemi took Kazuha's hand and walked into the venue.

Asakawa Yu naturally followed behind them, since the case was less important to him than a meal.

Moreover, Hattori had already said that to me back then, so I would naturally respect his wishes.

Let me see just how far these high school detectives from Kansai can go...
