Yeah, that's roughly the idea.

The roller coaster carried the mannequin around once and finally drove out of the children's sight. Then, accompanied by a "bang bang bang bang" background music, the masked superhero, played by an actor, walked slightly out of breath onto the bungee jumping platform next to the artificial river not far away.

According to the original story, Kamen Rider would jump off the bungee jumping platform. This jump had no real significance; it was simply to make the children exclaim in amazement and feel that this bungee jump was amazing, thus ending the day's performance.

However, as expected, an unexpected incident is about to occur.

As the masked superhero fell, a wisp of black smoke suddenly emerged from the inside of the rubber ring that was used to lock his legs, and then the rubber ring snapped with a crack.

Then, amidst the gasps of many adults on the roadside, the masked superhero plunged headfirst into the water. When he resurfaced a few minutes later, he was already a corpse.

"what--"

"Dead!"

Screams and screams erupted once again, but this time they didn't come from the children, who, at an average age of four to six, probably couldn't understand death.

This time, it was the older tourists who screamed.

Those who originally planned to go bungee jumping screamed even louder, clearly traumatized by what they saw, and probably won't want to go on a bungee jumping platform again.

"No wonder he's called the Grim Reaper Elementary School Student; wherever he goes, death follows."

Kitagawa Yu glanced at Anya first. Anya, who was originally planning to run over to watch the drama unfold, was now being held by Ai, who was quick to react. No matter how much Anya struggled, Ai put on a stern face and wouldn't let her go.

Just kidding! You're not Conan, why are you looking at dead people?

Then Kitagawa Yu looked at Conan. Well, as expected, Conan's seat was no longer there. Looking towards the direction where the body was floating on the water, wow, the person was already there!

"Could this guy be using shoes that enhance his leg strength?"

Kitagawa Yu guessed correctly. Seeing a group of children blocking the way, and many more bystanders further ahead, Conan decisively activated his power-enhancing shoes, which allowed him to successfully reach the crime scene in just a few seconds.

then

"Sister Xiaolan, go call the police quickly!"

As if he had radar installed in the back of his head, Conan turned around and shouted at Ran, who had also walked over at some point.

Then Ran obediently ran off to call Inspector Megure.

This process is quite skillful!

"Let's leave here as soon as possible," Ai Haibara suggested, wanting to avoid trouble.

But how could Anya, who is good at nothing but gossip, possibly miss out on a murder case she'd never heard of before?

"Ania wants to watch a crime-solving show~~~Ania wants to watch a crime-solving show~~~"

That's right, even Conan himself didn't know whether the case in front of him was a murder or an accident, but Anya already knew.

After all, how could there be any normal deaths in a place where Conan appears?

Anya had been eavesdropping on Kitagawa Yu's thoughts all along, so she naturally knew this long ago.

"Sister Elena~~~ Anya wants to see the case solved~~~"

Seeing that Ai didn't react, Anya turned around and prepared to try to woo someone else.

In any case, if either Elena or Ai is persuaded, Kitagawa Yu will have no choice but to stay.

Anya couldn't help but give herself a thumbs up for her cleverness!

Moreover, her choice to seduce Elena was indeed the right one, since Elena herself was a person who loved to join in the fun and would only run away decisively when faced with danger.

"Is this case not dangerous?"

Irene, who didn't know much about this world, turned to look at Kitagawa Yu.

"This...shouldn't be dangerous."

Kitagawa Yu thought hard, but couldn't remember which case it was.

But this also proves that this case is neither a theatrical version nor involves the Black Organization, otherwise he should remember it.

"Alright, then I'll stay." Ai shrugged helplessly and took the initiative to change her mind.

Of course, being proud and aloof, she still made excuses for herself.

"Let's just see how good that so-called famous detective is at solving cases~"

Kitagawa Yu felt that the famous detective she was talking about shouldn't be Kogoro Mouri, who had just been dragged over by Ran after she called the police.

A dozen minutes later, Inspector Megure arrived at the scene with a group of familiar faces, including Takagi and Chiba.

It has to be said that although the Japanese police in this world are extremely incompetent in solving cases, and can't even tell if it's a murder case without the help of a famous detective, their attitude is quite upright, and their response time is quite fast.

By this time, Kogoro Mouri had finished inspecting the crime scene. After greeting Inspector Megure, he began to share his insights.

"The perpetrator must be Akio Ishijima, who was in charge of the bungee jumping platform. He was the one who was setting up the safety equipment for the victim before the accident."

"Excellent! As expected of 'Guiding Light' Kogoro Mouri, you've already helped everyone eliminate a wrong answer right from the start!"

Kitagawa Yu became the on-site commentator, explaining things to Elena and the other two.

Conan, who happened to be searching for any clues nearby, also heard Kitagawa Yu's complaints. Thinking of Kogoro Mouri's past behavior, the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Actually, my uncle sometimes does get it right, just once or twice."

Conan decided to repay evil with kindness. Even though Kogoro Mouri often beat him up, he still kindly defended Kogoro Mouri a few times, after all, he was his future father-in-law.

More importantly, seeing Kitagawa Yu leisurely watching the drama unfold made him inexplicably annoyed.

Remembering how Kitagawa Yu had always teased and harassed him, almost scaring him to death a few times, he decided to regain some face in his area of ​​expertise: crime-solving. He wanted to let Kitagawa Yu know that he, the famous detective Shinichi Kudo, was not just a name without substance and was not someone to be trifled with!

However, this time he clearly chose the wrong opponent.

He was just about to provoke Kitagawa Yu, to provoke him into a detective showdown.

Anya's eyes suddenly lit up, and she tugged hard at Kitagawa Yu's sleeve, excitedly saying in a voice only they could hear, "Onii-chan, Onii-chan! I know who the culprit is!"

"???"

Conan looked at the girl in front of him with two strange little horns on her head, who was sometimes quirky but most of the time even dumber than Ayumi, and three big question marks appeared on his head.

"This girl knows who the murderer is? How is that possible! I don't even know who the murderer is, how could a little girl like her know!"

"Unless she also took APTX-4869, and it was an adult who shrunk."

"But that's impossible. If an adult really shrunk, how could they be so stupid? Yesterday, they even got a question like how many ice cream cones ten thousand yen could buy wrong, a question that even an elementary school student could answer?"

A whole host of thoughts instantly popped into Conan's head.

Completely unaware that Anya's expression froze, her little fist clenched, and a big thumbs up appeared on her forehead.

"Ania is not stupid!"

"Ania isn't an emoji either!"

"Ania just wanted to buy a few more ice cream cones yesterday! It wasn't a miscalculation!"

"In short, Anya is absolutely amazing!"

That's the downside of mind-reading sometimes. You can hear what others are thinking and cursing you, but because you want to hide your superpower, it's not good to just talk back.

I could only forcibly suppress the urge to grab Conan's head and beat him up; this really tested my acting skills and patience!

"Ania knows who the murderer is!"

"Aren't you some famous detective? If you're so capable, why don't you compete with Anya and see who finds the murderer first!"

"If Anya finds the murderer first, then you're even dumber than Anya!"

Upon hearing this, not only Conan but also Kitagawa Yu were stunned, and a strange expression appeared on their faces.

"Ania challenging Detective Conan? A little cutie who can't even tell time is challenging the world's top three smartest people? This..."

Across from him, Conan, after regaining his senses, saw Anya suddenly pointing menacingly at him and issuing a challenge, and a look of amusement and exasperation appeared on his face.

"Comparing me to the famous detective Shinichi Kudo in solving cases? Even if that dark-skinned kid from Osaka came, he couldn't beat me~"

"In the whole world, if I, Shinichi Kudo, am second to none, only my old man would dare to claim first!"

This is Conan's inner monologue.

As for Anya's challenge, he didn't take it seriously at all.

Why would a tiger care about a domestic cat's provocation?

"Sigh, never mind, solving the case is more important. How could I use something as serious as solving a case for a competition? It was wrong of me."

Anya listened to Conan's inner thoughts and became increasingly angry.

I was so excited!

"Onii-chan! I'm going to tell that policeman who the murderer is!"

Seeing Anya's expression, Kitagawa Yuichi probably guessed what was going on. Conan must have underestimated Anya, treating her like an idiot, and successfully provoked her.

"hey-hey."

"Then let's go~"

At that moment, Anya seemed to be possessed by the power of a Chihuahua, holding her head high and leading Kitagawa Yu and the other two through the crowd to Inspector Megure's side.

"It's him!"

"He's the one who killed Kamen Rider!"

Anya pointed her little hand at Dayue She, the props and special effects artist on the set.

The crisp voice instantly startled Akio Ishijima, who was anxiously defending himself after being accused of the murder by Kogoro Mouri. Then, he and the others all looked at Anya.

Only Conan, who had come along, suddenly had a flash of inspiration when he saw Anya pointing at Ōtake Wataru.

"Little friend, what's your name?" Inspector Megure was the first to come to his senses and ask.

Perhaps because Anya was a little girl and so cute, he spoke very gently, much more gently than when he spoke to Conan.

This caused Conan, who was deep in thought, to pause and stare with his deadpan eyes.
