I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

Chapter 180 Ha, he's already in heaven.

"Let me see if I recognize anyone at the crime scene."

"Sure enough!"

Inspector Megure, who had just arrived at the crime scene after receiving the report, sighed.

He looked at Kogoro Mouri, who was walking out of the victimized café, and said,
"Hey Mori, why do I always seem to see you at crime scenes?"

Isn't your bad luck a bit too severe?

I previously said that maybe Brother Chen En's luck was even worse than yours, but now it seems that you really are the expert in this area!
"...How would I know? I just met my client at this coffee shop to discuss the case."

Kogoro Mouri was also somewhat speechless.

It's not like he wanted a murder to happen here; it was just a coincidence.

After all, he only came to discuss a case involving finding a lost dog, so it shouldn't be his fault, right?

Inspector Megure was speechless for a moment.

He could only pat Kogoro Mouri on the shoulder before pushing the door open and entering.

He merely glanced at the location of the blue truck's impact.

Inspector Megure shook his head slightly.

With that level of impact, there's definitely no way to save him; calling an ambulance would be pointless.

He said to Takagi Wataru beside him,
"Have the forensic team come over to take photos and collect evidence, then have a tow truck pull the truck back so we can check on the victims."

Upon hearing this, Takagi Wataru nodded nervously and quickly did as instructed.

He didn't even need to think to know that the victims this time probably died in a very gruesome way.

Thinking that I had eaten lunch before coming over, I couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Bring another vomit bag later, just in case.

Seeing that Takagi Wataru had gone to find the forensic officers, Inspector Megure then looked at the other people in the store.

He glanced at it, then asked,

"Does anyone know the deceased? Who was the deceased? What was their identity?"

Upon hearing this, General Manager Ohara, who had previously discussed business with the deceased Aida, immediately raised his hand and spoke.
"Officer, I know the deceased."

General Manager Ohara stepped forward and said with some sadness,
"The deceased and I were old friends for many years."

"I am Kazuo Ohara, the general manager of Ohara Planning."

"The deceased's name was Aida Tetsu, a designer at Ohara Kikaku. We had agreed to part ways amicably after he finished designing the last drawing, but I never expected something like this to happen..."

At this point, Kazuo Ohara almost broke down in tears.

Kogoro Mouri, standing nearby, frowned.

He felt that the relationship between Kazuo Ohara and Tetsu Aida wasn't as good as Kazuo Ohara had described.

While at the coffee shop, he noticed the conversation between Kazuo Ohara and Tetsu Aida. They were clearly having a conflict over Aida's departure and even mentioned that the company was about to go bankrupt.

In this situation, shouldn't Kazuo Ohara dislike Toru Aida?
Despite being longtime friends and employees, Aida Toru was eager to jump ship once the company was on the verge of collapse, accelerating its demise and adding fuel to the fire.

No matter how he thought about it, he felt that it was fake for Kazuo Ohara to be so grieving over Toru Aida's death.

"Ohara Project?"

Inspector Megure stroked his chin and then said,

"I saw this sign when I drove over in my police car. It's right next to the uphill road. Mr. Ohara, is the Ohara Planning you mentioned the company I'm referring to?"

Upon hearing this, Kazuo Ohara nodded.

Before the group could exchange any more words, the tow truck called by the police outside began to move. The blue van, with most of its front end embedded in the coffee shop, was slowly towed away. Once it was confirmed that the blue van had come to a stop and there were no other safety hazards, the forensic officers began to examine the victims' injuries.

—Ha, he's already in heaven.

Looking at this horrific state, even discussing checking the victim's injuries is a horrific joke.

"Uh……"

Takagi Wataru glanced at it and immediately used the vomit bag he had just brought.

Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mouri, both veteran detectives, exchanged a glance, a hint of seriousness creeping into their eyes—the victim's condition was so dire that it would be difficult to resolve the situation without finding the cause.

Kogoro Mouri leaned close to Inspector Megure's ear and whispered something.
“When I arrived, I saw that although the truck was parked near the downhill road, the handbrake was engaged, so it shouldn’t be sliding downhill. Megure, you also checked the front of the truck; the handbrake there has been released.”

"Someone deliberately pulled the handbrake, causing the truck to slide down and hit people."

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure was taken aback.

Oh my god, how can someone be so mean?
Why resort to such a terrifying method as the "mud cart Iaijutsu" when killing someone is just a matter of beheading?

Did you even consider how the shop owner felt when you killed him like that?

Thinking of this, Inspector Megure looked at the coffee shop owner.

However, the shop owner had already fainted from crying next to the bar, appearing unconscious. The police officer next to him was still pinching the shop owner's philtrum, hoping that the shop owner would finish giving a statement before fainting.

—It was originally a small business.

As a result, the coffee shop's storefront and sign were smashed by the truck, and now someone has died in such a horrific manner. It's highly likely that this coffee shop will have to close down. Such an unexpected disaster.

Who can withstand that?

"Oh no, I'm testing it! Where's my car? Where did my car go?"

The faint sound of voices could be heard coming from up the hill.

Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mouri turned their heads at the same time to look in the direction from which the sound came, only to see a deliveryman in a standard blue uniform running towards them.

He quickly said to the police officer driving the tow truck,
"Wait a minute, this is my car, why are you towing it?"

"I'm just stopping temporarily. Can I drive away now? This should be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Transportation, not your Criminal Investigation Department to tow my car."

Takagi Wataru, who had just vomited, approached with a pale face.

He looked at the deliveryman and then asked,

"So you admit this is your car?"

Deliveryman: ?

What are you doing?

Without saying a word, Takagi Wataru pulled the deliveryman to the front of the blue truck and showed him the situation.

The deliveryman was stunned.

What? Why is the front all ketchup?

Why is the front of the car so flat? Is this my car? I don't remember my car having such a flat front.
He swallowed hard and said,
"Ahahaha, I won't bother you anymore. I'm leaving now."

"This car, this car belongs to the government, not me, haha."

The deliveryman had just turned around.

Inspector Megure was already upon them, and said without any politeness,
"Sir, you are now suspected of intentional homicide. Please cooperate with the police investigation."

"Otherwise, there will be consequences at your own risk!"

Deliveryman: ?

Who...who set this up for me?
I was just delivering a package, who did I bother?
