Isn't it very scientific to use the Death Note to kill people?

When the fire reached the car door, Lin Jiashu was forced to retreat a little, and then at that moment -

boom! ! !

The explosion shook the entire car.

When the flames and impact broke out, Lin Jiashu, who was injured and staggering, was unable to support himself and was thrown back in an instant.

He fell to the ground in a mess.

The onlookers screamed and cried out in surprise, and the passing vehicles also made sharp brake sounds.

The blazing flames burned.

After a while,

"Sir! Are you okay?"

"How are you!?"

"Call an ambulance! Does anyone have a fire extinguisher!?"

"I've already called!"

"There's a fire extinguisher here!!"

Friendly passers-by and drivers gathered to offer help, while some drivers hurriedly took out fire extinguishers from their trunks to put out the burning vehicles.

The white dry powder quickly extinguished the leaping flames.

However, Ed Michael, who was sitting in the driver's seat, had already become a burnt corpse stuck to his seat.

Many passers-by did not dare to look, but some noticed Lin Jiashu's identity.

"Isn't this the famous detective!?!"

"what?"

"It's Lin Jiashu——!"

"My God!"

Several girls among the passersby covered their mouths after recognizing him. At this time, Lin Jiashu, who was surrounded by the crowd, had an anxious look on his face. He forced himself to sit up, his handsome face full of distress, and there was blood at the corner of his mouth: "Danger... Don't gather—"

"You're hurt! Stop talking!"

A passerby quickly scolded him.

"The fire has been put out!"

"The police will be here soon."

"Nothing will happen here, don't worry."

"..."

The crowd gathering grew larger and larger.

After realizing that there was no further danger, the seriously injured Lin Jiashu fainted.

Ambulances and police cars arrived here soon.

Chapter 238: Lin Jiashu's Injury

11:17 PM

As soon as a taxi stopped in front of the hospital, several figures hurriedly got out of the car.

“On the 15th floor!”

Kogoro Mouri ran in front, followed closely by Ran and Conan.

There are not many people in the hospital at night.

The three of them hurriedly ran into the stairs and went all the way to the 15th floor. According to the location, they quickly found a ward with a sign that read "Lin Jiashu".

Through the window on the door, Kogoro Mouri saw the doctor standing in front of the bed, recording something.

He opened the door immediately.

"How's the situation, Shu?"

"Ah, you are relatives, right?"

The doctor turned around, glanced at the three of them, and continued, "Don't worry, the injured person is not in any danger... However, the impact of the explosion caused blast injuries, resulting in minor internal bleeding. Therefore, he needs to remain in bed. Besides the scrapes and bruises he has, the most important concern is the distal radius fracture in his right hand, which also requires rest."

"……how so?"

Looking at Lin Jiashu, who looked extremely weak and lying on the hospital bed connected to various medical devices and supplied with oxygen through an oxygen mask, Xiaolan felt a little helpless.

Clearly, Jiashu was with them two hours ago...

With such a gentle and kind smile, he shared all kinds of interesting stories with her and complained about his father who was completely bewildered by Miss Yoko...

We just said good night to each other and then parted ways, how could this happen suddenly?

"What happened?"

Conan couldn't help but ask.

They had just returned to the hotel to rest when they suddenly received a phone call saying that Lin Jiashu was admitted to the hospital due to the impact of the explosion, so they hurried over.

Kogoro Mouri also looked at Hayashi Yoshiki with an ugly expression.

Not long after, footsteps were heard outside the ward.

A few people turned their heads and saw Hattori Heiji, who also looked hurried, and behind him was the familiar Osaka police inspector Otaki Goro.

"how is the situation?"

Hattori Heiji asked as soon as he appeared.

"The doctor said there's no danger." Maori Kogoro answered casually, and then immediately asked Inspector Otaki anxiously: "Inspector, what's wrong with Ashu?"

"We retrieved the surveillance footage from the time of the incident and Mr. Lin may have been involved in an accident."

Otaki Goro was also clear-headed and opened the laptop he brought with him as he spoke.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong, the doctor left quickly.

Conan watched the other person close the door, then squeezed forward and looked at the laptop screen seriously.

Otaki Goro played several videos taken from several cameras.

The first is a black car driving normally on the road.

As the progress bar moved, the driving of the car in the video suddenly became strange, as if it had lost its turning function and was driving straight forward. Not long after, it was hit by the vehicle next to it on the left side of the front of the car, causing it to deviate from the direction. It rushed straight towards the opposite lane along the intersection and headed straight for Lin Jiashu who was standing on the curb on the other side.

At the critical moment, the high-speed vehicle had a tire blowout. The instantaneous tilt and change in tire direction caused the car to turn suddenly. The rear end of the car just barely hit Lin Jiashu, while the front of the car violently hit the building next to it.

From the surveillance footage, it can be seen that Lin Jiashu, who was hit by the rear end of the car, was obviously seriously injured.

He stood up awkwardly, his hands hanging limply - the fracture in his right hand was probably caused at that time.

The vehicle that stopped after hitting the building caught fire for no apparent reason.

Seeing this, Lin Jiashu hurriedly dragged his aching body forward and reached out to try to open the car door - even though his right hand was broken and weak at the time, he still managed to raise his hand and dragged his aching body to desperately try to open the car door.

Xiaolan felt a little distressed.

But soon, the flames suddenly expanded.

The raging flames forced Lin Jiashu to retreat, and just a few seconds later, the car suddenly exploded with a "boom!"

The impact and flames caused by the explosion blew Lin Jiashu away.

Seeing him fall there helplessly, the people who saw this scene were shocked.

"how come……"

"Wasn't the guy driving the car at the party today—!"

There are several video files.

There are cameras on the road and cameras with several viewing angles at intersections.

In one or two of the videos, Kogoro Mouri and the others could clearly see Ed Michael's face, and they could also see him sitting in the driver's seat, turning the steering wheel in panic but the vehicle did not move.

"Ashu was involved in such an accident..."

"It might be an accident that the young man was involved, but that's not necessarily the case with Ed Michael."

Following Maori Kogoro's words, Hattori Heiji frowned, his eyes fixed on the laptop screen, his chin in his hand. "Whether it's the car suddenly losing control, or the inexplicable spontaneous combustion, or the explosion, nothing seems right."

"Inspector Otaki, have you found any results on that car?" Conan immediately looked at the only policeman in the ward.

Otaki Goro nodded.

"Due to the explosion and fire, not much can be found in the car...but according to our investigation, the connection between the steering wheel and the steering gear was indeed disconnected, and the spontaneous combustion and explosion were caused by a gasoline leak in the engine compartment. We also cannot rule out the possibility that the car's wiring may have shorted due to aging."

"...In other words, could this also be an accident?"

Xiaolan asked, and couldn't help but look at Lin Jiashu who was lying on the hospital bed and had not woken up yet.

He looks really weak now.

It was the first time Xiaolan saw him like this.

——Brother Jiashu, who was a very capable and reliable person and who remained calm in dangerous situations and even had the energy to take care of and help her, has now become so powerless.

"We still need to wait for further investigation to find out the details, but Mr. Lin himself may know something about the situation."

"What do you mean?"

Conan and Hattori Heiji raised their heads immediately.

Ohtaki Goro, his arms folded across his chest, scratched his cheek and said uncertainly, "...I heard from the passersby who brought him here that Mr. Lin said something like 'It's dangerous, don't gather' before he fell unconscious and was taken to the hospital."

"...Is this so?"

The two young detectives immediately looked at Lin Jiashu lying on the hospital bed. They had always trusted his reasoning ability, so if Lin Jiashu really had discovered something...

At this moment, footsteps were suddenly heard outside the ward.

Before Hattori Heiji could react, Ōtaki Goro uttered a voice of astonishment: "Captain, Captain!?"

The dark-skinned boy subconsciously looked up, his expression also becoming surprised: "Dad!?"

The person who walked into the ward was Hattori Heiji's father, the Chief of Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters - Hattori Heizo!

Chapter 239: I don’t think it’s a coincidence

After waking up leisurely, what Lin Jiashu saw was the white ceiling.

The smell of disinfectant was everywhere.

My chest felt a little stuffy, and I felt distinct pain all over my body - my sore right hand became very heavy, probably because it was fixed with something.

However, Lin Jiashu didn't take it to heart at all, because he had known the result from the beginning.

"Brother Jiashu, you're awake!"

Xiaolan, who was standing nearby, noticed that he opened his eyes and immediately came forward happily.

Lin Jiashu, who had just woken up, seemed a little sluggish.

He looked at Xiaolan's face steadily.

The face of a very beautiful girl, overflowing with the pure charm of a high school girl.

It's just that she seemed a little listless because she didn't get enough rest.

Lin Jiashu looked at her steadily.

"Brother Jiashu?"

"...Excuse me, who are you?"

Lin Jiashu looked at her blankly.

In an instant, Xiaolan's face turned panic-stricken. Her expression immediately became nervous. She quickly pointed at herself and was about to say something, but the next second she saw Lin Jiashu showing a slightly weak smile:
