Conan: The Mechanic

About 3 minutes later, the parking lot - although it started to rain outside about an hour ago, and there was no open fire in places that could be covered by rain, such as the roof, the interior of the car that just exploded started to roar. Burning - The burning site is obviously inside the body of the car, and there's not much rainwater can do.

There were a total of six people present, Gregory, Fujiwara, the Maori couple, and the bridegroom's attendant Lai Tai, and the last one...was a burning corpse lying in front of everyone and lying at the fuel hole of the car.

"..." Gregory, who was protected by Fujiwara's umbrella, narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the blazing fire in front of him. "This...it's no help."

"This is Hatsune's car, how could this be..." After hearing Gregory's judgment, the groom seemed to lose all his high spirits for a moment, and immediately wanted to jump into the corpse that was burned by the flames.

"Calm down!" Kogoro Mori reacted quickly and immediately grabbed him, but Gregory next to him reacted even faster, and he subdued the groom with a steady blow from his crutch. "This may just be a car thief. You calm down first. If you just jump in, what will you do when the bride-to-be comes back?"

After saying this, Gregory gave Fujiwara a wink and motioned him to bring the groom back to the shop to rest first. In this way, only the Maori couple and Gregory were left at the scene.

"It doesn't look like there's much we can do." Fei Yingli touched her wet shoulders - when Mouri Kogoro rushed out to subdue the groom just now, she subconsciously put the umbrella on top of Mouri Kogoro's head, and He was a little wet because he was not completely covered—looking in the direction of the flames, he said to Kogoro Mouri. "Haven't those young people brought the fire extinguisher?"

"They'd better bring things over quickly, otherwise Miss Kamon Hatsune will really have nothing left." Gregory glanced in the direction of the restaurant door, and sure enough, the shop staff came running with fire extinguishers. "But I need a shot first, these fire extinguishers may not be enough."

"Are you sure this is the bride?" Fei Yingli frowned slightly. "This burnt is no longer in human form, isn't it?"

"Her shoes were recommended to her by me, have you seen those—" Saying this, Gregory pointed to the two pieces of the corpse's footsteps. "That's the point insert of that particular high heel, so the flames just can't reach the melting point of this thing."

……

Meanwhile, on the second floor of the restaurant.

The bachelorette party has come to an emergency stop, and the participants have gathered in front of the window on the second floor, whispering nervously. At a certain window where the viewing conditions were not good, but remote enough, Hotaru and Chiba were sitting there.

"No, this is impossible, the call was indeed made to him by the other party, there is no falsehood." Qian Yu shook her head, rejecting Ying's guess. "I'm a very strong hacker, I can confirm that. Of course, I can't do anything about confirming the content of the conversation."

Well, of course, Chiba has the ability to eavesdrop on calls by taking over the communication relay rights, but this is limited to instant calls. If there is no deliberate takeover like this, and only the records can be queried afterwards, even the auxiliary unit cannot reproduce the content that has disappeared.

"But it's still very weird," Ying did not dispel her concerns. "If it's a normal person, it shouldn't be deduced from a car that exploded so quickly to 'it must be his wife's car that exploded, and his wife must be next to the car and was blown up'."

"This is really suspicious," Chiba agreed with Hotaru. "So sister, didn't you just let Gregory pay attention?"

"Yes, but in any case, the body has been completely destroyed, and it is difficult to extract evidence of the potential murderer." Ying shook his head. "Even the sleeping Kogoro and the undefeated Queen of Justice can't do anything under such circumstances, right?"

The strength of a detective lies in his personal flexibility and his ability to identify traces through rich experience. If the evidence at the scene is highly damaged, the detective will not even have the basic skeleton to build a castle in the air, let alone make a correct inference.

However, although it is impossible to know exactly what happened, Chiyu seems to have an incredible clue in his hands - the mobile phone that was talking to the groom had just received a call from a landline before calling the groom.

……

About forty minutes later.

"Why are you here?" This was the first sentence that Officer Mumu said after seeing Kogoro Mouri's figure.

"The deceased... To be precise, the owner of this burning car is my classmate's fiancée," Kogoro Mouri pointed to the restaurant behind him. "Although I'm not sure, I think the deceased should be this Miss Kamen Hatsune."

"Yeah," Gregory, who was standing beside the corpse whose flames had been extinguished, looked at something with a flashlight also joined the conversation. "The body has been severely burned, even if it is not suicide but murder~www.readwn.com~ those related traces have been destroyed."

"Why are you here?" Officer Mumu was completely dumbfounded. "You...you can't be their classmate, right?"

"I am an old friend of the deceased," Gregory replied sullenly. "Let's not talk about it. From the traces on the scene, it looks like the burning caused by bringing the fire source close to the gasoline filling hole. In a sense, it is similar to an accident."

"But it may not be an accident, but suicide, because the companion... That is, the fiancé said that the deceased called before the explosion and said goodbye to him." Kogoro Mouri spread his hands. "Of course, it's hard to explain. After all, we're going to get married tomorrow, so there's no reason to choose suicide now."

"So, if this was a murder, it must have been done by someone who didn't know she was going to get married tomorrow, but the problem is that if an acquaintance committed the crime, there is no reason not to know it." Fei Yingli said with a sullen face. "If it is inferred from such a concept... indiscriminate murder?"

"Indiscriminate murder is too ostentatious-" When he said this, Gregory's cell phone suddenly rang, so he barely controlled the crutch and umbrella with the same hand, and took it out with the other hand. Cell phone, looking at the content of the text message. "If I were a murderer, I would never set the car on fire, it would be too ostentatious, and it would be inconvenient to escape. Even if it was detonated in advance with a detonator, it would be difficult to explain why Mr. Farewell to Miss Garmen. If it was recorded in advance, it does not match the characteristics of indiscriminate strangers committing crimes..."

Speaking of this, Gregory suddenly raised his eyebrows and put away his phone. "I'm sorry, I need to go to the bathroom, you guys should do related work first."
