The fire truck arrived at the scene immediately to put out the fire. As the cause of the explosion was still unknown, it was likely that there would be a second explosion, so the onlookers were driven far away.
Mochizuki and the Detective Boys were standing by the roadside, watching with the nearby residents. As the building was made of reinforced concrete and had not been renovated, there was nothing to burn inside, so the fire was quickly put out.
Then, Mochizuki, who was watching from downstairs, heard a piece of news. Firefighters found three corpses at the scene of the fire. The nature of the matter immediately changed, so the firefighters immediately informed the search department.
"Three corpses?" When Conan heard this news, he immediately thought of the three men in black who had quietly followed him. Could the three corpses be them?
In an instant, Conan seemed to understand something. Although those people followed us at first, they went straight to the building after we left. Could it be that their target wasn't me, but the so-called treasure?
So the treasure was real? The treasure map was real?
……
Soon, the police car arrived and stopped by the roadside. Police Chief Megami got out of the car and led the team to the building to hand over to the firefighters.
"Uncle Mu Mu!" Conan shouted.
Megure turned around when he heard the voice and was a little confused." Conan? Why is it you? Could it be that Brother Mao Li is also here?"
"No, Uncle Mao Li isn't here. I came with my classmates.”
"Oh, classmates!"
Mochizuki also greeted him." Hello, Police Department Megure."”
Megure was dumbfounded. Was this Conan's classmate? Ni o, aren't you being a little too harsh? She's only in the first grade of elementary school at this age? "Eh? So it's you…I remember your name is Mochizuki? Why are you here?"
Mu Mu finally realized that he had misunderstood. Conan's classmates should be the three little ones next to him.
The children didn't think about the treasure anymore and told the truth." We're here to look for treasure. The treasure is on the roof of this building, but for some reason, there was a sudden explosion on the roof! Fortunately, we haven't entered yet."
"Hmm? What was that? Treasure hunting?" Megure could not understand what was going on.
Mochizuki explained,"The children picked up a treasure map of unknown origin."”
Genta obediently handed the treasure map to the police. Megure took it and looked at it." Is this a treasure map? Why doesn't it look like it?"
"Uh, this is indeed a treasure map. The pattern on it represents neon lights…"
After Mochizuki explained, Megure finally realized what was going on. He then looked serious." What's going on…The treasure map ends here, but for some reason, an explosion happened here, killing three people…"
Megure found the fire chief and asked,""Have you found out the cause of the explosion?”
The fire chief replied," Although we're not 100% sure, we found some flour on the roof. It's probably a dust explosion.”Mu Mu was an old criminal police officer, so he naturally knew what a dust explosion was.
Genta did not understand and quietly asked Mitsuhiko,""What is a dust explosion?"
Guang Yan explained," The so-called dust explosion refers to the mixture of flammable dust and air. Once it comes into contact with the fire source, the dust will be collectively ignited and an explosion will occur. Therefore, flour could actually explode.”
"What is it? Flour can explode?" Genta was so scared that his face turned green. I swear that I will never eat anything made of flour again!
Mochizuki looked at Mitsuhiko in surprise. He didn't expect this kid to know so much. If it weren't for Conan, perhaps Xu Guangyan would have become the military advisor of the Junior Detective Team. But now, he was only worthy of being a dog's military advisor.
The fire chief lowered his voice and said," Actually... we also found something else..."
"What is it?" Seeing him lower his voice, Megure also became nervous.
"Guns…We found guns on all three bodies. They're real.”
" What?!" Megure and the criminal police behind him all changed their expressions, and so did Conan.
The three victims actually had guns on them? Megure realized that this matter might be more serious than he had expected.
" Who are they…" Mu Mu muttered to himself.
"I might know those people," Conan suddenly said.”
"What is it? Conan, do you know the deceased?" Everyone looked down at Conan.
Ayumi Mitsuhiko was also surprised. What was Conan talking about? How did he know the people who were killed in the explosion?
Mochizuki didn't find this strange because Conan had already noticed the three bandits following them. Now that there were three bodies at the scene of the explosion, he naturally thought that it was those three. However, Conan obviously didn't know their identities.
"Yes, I am. Inspector Megure, can you let me go up and take a look?”
" This…" Megure hesitated for a moment, then remembered that the scene had already been destroyed by fire and water. If Conan could really provide information, it would not matter if he went up. " But, the bodies at the scene of the fire are very scary…"
"It's okay, I've seen many scary case photos with Uncle Mao Li.”
Megure thought to himself,'How did that old thing take care of the child?' Usually, if the child was annoyed, they would let the child watch cartoons, right? You actually showed the child a photo of a murder case? He couldn't understand.
"Alright, then follow me." Megure agreed.
The children could not help but shout," We want to watch it too! We want to see it too!"
The Moongazer Serpent's mouth twitched. Is there anything in this world that you don't want to see?
" Chief, look at this…" Mochizuki was in a dilemma. Please stop him.
"Alright, let them come up, but you have to watch them.”Megure misunderstood Mochizuki.
" Ah, no, I mean…" Before Mochizuki could explain, Inspector Megami had already left.
The children cheered and followed the police upstairs, while Mochizuki stood rooted to the ground.
He agreed? You actually agreed?
This was the crime scene! The children made a scene and you agreed to let them in? He couldn't understand.
Forget it, forget it. There must be something wrong with the brain of someone looking for realism in the 2D world…
……
Arriving at the rooftop, three charred corpses came into view. Genta and Kazuhiko could not help but retch. Ayumi's eyes rolled up and she fainted. Fortunately, the Moongazer Serpent had been staring at her, so he quickly supported her to prevent her from falling silly.
The behavior of these three brats really made Mochizuki not know whether to laugh or cry. This was probably the kind of person who was reckless and cowardly.
Mochizuki was surprised to find that he didn't feel anything when he saw the charred corpse." It seems that the series of experiences in transmigration have made my heart stronger. The last time there was a corpse next door, it caused insomnia. It wasn't because I was afraid, but because I felt uncomfortable…"
Conan wasn't interested in corpses either. After a few glances, he was sure that the dead were the three people who had been following them.
"It really is them! This person was wearing a gold watch.”
Upon hearing Conan's words, Megure immediately asked,""Conan, do you really know them?”
Conan shook his head." I don't know them, but I've seen them before because they were following me before.”
"Follow you? Why would I follow you?" Mu Mu was puzzled.
"I didn't understand it at first, but now I understand. Their target is the treasure map!"
