The woman let out a piercing scream.

Watching her struggle desperately, Lin Jiashu looked at her expressionlessly: "Have some self-respect. You've been using chewing gum to signal to the hijackers whether the passengers are behaving strangely. Do you really think no one noticed?"

"I was just chewing gum! What evidence do you have that I was an accomplice of the robbers!?"

"Then let the police check your watch, which has been showing 1:00 without changing."

"That's right, this watch is probably the detonator for the bomb the robbers planted in the car!"

Conan also stepped forward to point out the wrong path.

Miharu Tomino's face immediately turned ashen.

If her involvement as an accomplice in the robbery is exposed, and her plan to use a bomb to send the entire busload of people into the air is revealed, it's easy to imagine that she will face an endless and long prison sentence.

She immediately began to try to struggle.

Lin Jiashu then let her go.

But just as the woman suddenly raised her hand to break free from Lin Jiashu's grip, he punched her squarely in the abdomen.

The intense pain caused Miharu Tomino's eyes to bulge out. She arched her back and dry heaved, feeling almost completely exhausted.

However, Lin Jiashu did not let her off the hook. Instead, after withdrawing his hand, he clenched his fist and punched out again.

boom!

After a thud that made your teeth ache, Miharu Tomino collapsed to the ground, powerless.

Ayumi, Genta, and the others watching couldn't help but swallow hard.

So, Brother Jiashu can actually hit people... and he seems to hit them really hard.

Conan just chuckled when he learned of their thoughts.

Of course Lin Jiashu would hit someone. When he was helping the Suzuki family protect their jewels and catch the Phantom Thief Kid, he gave the Phantom Thief Kid a hard blow that made him slide to his knees.

And if he didn't know how to fight, how did he manage to subdue a group of delinquents at Teitan High School back then?

Cause of death: Death by explosion

At 3:57 PM on December 17th, a chemical truck carrying organic solvents entered the Metropolitan Expressway from the Takaido exit.

At 16:31, less than one kilometer from the Xiaofo Tunnel, witnessing an advertising billboard on the highway ahead fall down, the driver panicked and swerved, causing the vehicle to overturn.

Shortly after the vehicle overturned and slid, the impact caused the tank to rupture, and the intense heat ignited and detonated the organic solvents inside, resulting in a massive explosion.

[Died in the explosion.]

Cause of death: Accidental death

[At 4 PM on December 17th, a small truck loaded with a saw blade for cutting stainless steel materials drove through the Capital Expressway to the factory.]

At 16:31, less than one kilometer from the Xiaofo Tunnel, the vehicle attempted to overtake a chemical truck on the right, but collided with the truck, which swerved sharply in a hurry. The truck skidded and was run over and dragged.

He died from being run over by a vehicle and subsequently caught in an explosion.

Cause of death: Accidental death

[At 4:04 PM on December 17th, while in the hijacked vehicle, he suddenly tripped and fell. After getting up, he had a conversation with his companion that went something like, "It's okay, I just tripped and fell." and "Be careful too, you scared me."]

[Later, he was angered by the passengers' small actions on the bus and wanted to open fire, but his companions stopped him, and he kept the weapon from firing and thus did not harm any passengers.]

At 16:31, on the Capital Expressway, about one kilometer from the Xiaofo Tunnel, the driver, due to the inertia of his emergency braking to avoid colliding with a skidding chemical truck, fell forward and accidentally pulled the trigger of a pistol, breaking the windshield of the bus.

At 16:32:17, after the impact of the organic solvent explosion shattered the bus's windshield, he was fatally slit in the throat by a saw blade that flew in with the explosion.

The two deceased drivers were consumables companies with a relevant transportation background that Lin Jiashu had been paying attention to for some time.

Ren Nakamura and Daio Ezaki were sent to their doom by their older brother Kunio Yajima, whom they had risked their lives to rescue. As for their remaining female companion, she was taken into custody by the police and would soon "find an opportunity to commit suicide because she could not bear the suffering in prison," according to the contents of the Death Note.

However, the fire was truly devastating...

Facing the accident he had caused, Lin Jiashu sighed mercilessly.

At that moment, in the distance from the burning chemical truck, the sound of police officers reporting to their superiors could be heard one after another.

"Report: Roadblocks have been set up on the highway lanes."

"The fire is under control, and several more fire trucks will be on their way soon!"

"Inspector Megure, the bomb on the bus has been handed over to the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit!"

"Very good, have the identities of the two dead robbers been confirmed?"

"Officer, it's been confirmed."

After the bus came to an emergency stop on the highway, the passengers had already gotten off and moved to the outside of the emergency lane.

Model worker Inspector Megure arrived at the scene immediately with his men to maintain order. Due to the extreme danger posed by the chemical truck explosion and its continued burning, the entire highway is currently closed to traffic.

Lin Jiashu stood at a distance with a group of children, waiting for the police to make arrangements.

"Brother Lin."

As the officers were being directed to their respective tasks, Inspector Megure ran over.

In front of a group of children, his expression grave, he didn't elaborate: "This time too...?"

"Ah."

Lin Jiashu nodded solemnly.

In an instant, a gloomy look appeared on Inspector Megure's face.

Although he wasn't a member of the special task force, he led the investigation of all the major and minor death cases in Beika Town, and he was the one who submitted all the information. So he naturally knew that the special task force had previously been in charge of investigating a murderer who used accidental killings.

"What's wrong, Inspector Megure? You look terrible."

Seeing this, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya couldn't help but ask.

"...It's nothing, I just think these robbers were really ruthless. I didn't expect that after achieving their goal, they would still plant bombs to kill so many people." Inspector Megure laughed as he said this, "Fortunately, everyone was alright in the end."

Upon hearing this, a group of children immediately started shouting excitedly.

Only Conan, recalling the look in Megure's eyes when he was talking to Yoshiki Hayashi, also became serious.

Lin Jiashu was pleased.

The task force hadn't encountered any accidental homicides for quite some time since Thomas Cindora's death, and the task force had shrunk considerably during that period... Now that another accidental homicide has occurred, it remains to be seen how they will react.

Lin Jiashu is currently very safe.

—The recurrence of an accidental murder right before his eyes would not lead to him being suspected.

On the contrary, Hayashi Yoshiki will become safer.

The robbers arrived so suddenly, and with the testimony of all the passengers on the bus, Lin Jiashu was unable to do anything under the circumstances. Apart from being a victim, he could not possibly have had any connection to this accident.

"..."

Lin Jiashu looked at the man who was not far away with his back to them.

Shuichi Akai had already taken off his mask and, with his back to everyone, made a report call to his superiors.

He briefly mentioned the robbery and accident that occurred on the bus, and then hung up.

When he came to his senses, he looked at the chemical truck in the distance, whose fire was gradually being contained by fire trucks, and his brows furrowed.

This didn't seem like an accident at all, yet it could only be an accident within an accident...

Shuichi Akai couldn't help but care.

Suddenly, he noticed the gaze behind him and looked over to find the young man staring at him.

Shuichi Akai didn't think much of it, assuming that he had acted too strangely and attracted attention, so he turned his head away.

“A fine tree…”

Xiao Ai gripped Lin Jiashu's clothes tightly.

Her pale face had regained a little color, and she was looking up at Lin Jiashu intently.

"You seem to have suddenly become clingy, Ai."

Lin Jiashu smiled and rubbed her head.

"Yeah, Ai is acting a little strange."

"Was she scared by the robbers?"

"Compared to this, does this mean we can't go skiing at all?"

Chapter 296: Gin: "Kingdom's fetish is murder!"

It was a bar with a live band and an elegant ambiance.

The band on stage is playing soothing music.

"Hehe, that client who just went back was actually laughing like that. He doesn't even know that his death anniversary is coming soon, right, brother?"

In the dim light of the bar, he grinned as he looked at the vodka with the name on the business card.

Gin did not respond.

Vodka looked up at him and saw that the other man was watching the performance with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Big brother?"

"..."

"Ah, are you watching that singer who's going to come on stage later? Her singing is indeed so captivating..."

Vodka followed Gin's gaze to the stage, where a dark-skinned, thick-lipped foreign woman was preparing to go on stage at the connection between the backstage and the stage: "She's not bad looking either. Big brother, is that your type?"

Gin didn't answer.

Although he had no interest in women, he was speechless at vodka's aesthetic sense.

At that moment, a bartender walked over.

Before he could speak, Gin glanced at him and asked, "What do you mean by saying you witnessed Cointreau committing an accidental murder?"

"...What are you saying, sir?"

"Enough with the nonsense!"

Gin grabbed the bartender's head and pulled him toward the table, then picked up an ice pick from the ice bucket and stabbed it into the bartender's head.

At the critical moment, Vermouth escaped with a smile, leaving the bartender's human skin mask pierced by an ice pick.

Vodka gaped in astonishment.

"You're really short-tempered. Are you that concerned about Jundu?"

What were his test results?

"Of course I brought it with me."
