Violence supervision in Conan

Chapter 456 You idiot! You've fallen in love with your own sister, you know that?!

The explosion happened right before their eyes, and everyone was shocked.

But the most excited person had to be Raita Banba, because he recognized that the car that caught fire was his fiancée Hatsune Kamon's.

Although the reason for the explosion is unknown, what if Hatsune Miku was in the car at that moment...?

Banba Raita dared not think any further.

Once he came to his senses, he immediately took off running and rushed out of the restaurant.

Yusaku Kudo and Kogoro Mouri followed closely behind.

When the three arrived at the explosion site, a wave of heat immediately hit them.

Looking at the vehicle engulfed in flames, Banba Raita turned pale, his only prayer being that Kamon Hatsune wasn't in the car.

Kudo Yusaku glanced around and noticed that someone had arrived a step ahead of them. Upon closer inspection, he recognized Oni no Takeshi.

Meeting the gazes of the three, Ono Takeshi shook his head and said in a regretful, deep voice, "I've already checked, and unfortunately, Miss Kamon is in the car..."

"No!"

Before he could finish speaking, Banba Raita, upon hearing the devastating news, immediately collapsed to his knees in anguish.

He was just happily celebrating his wedding with friends when his fiancée was suddenly engulfed in flames. The dramatic ups and downs of his life caught him completely off guard.

Yusaku Kudo and Kogoro Mouri immediately moved closer and peered into the burning vehicle.

Sure enough, a dark figure could be vaguely seen lying on the back seat, its entire body engulfed in flames.

Just like what Oni Takeshi said.

The two men looked grim; the fire was so intense that they were powerless to help.

They didn't blame Ono Takeshi. The incident happened suddenly, and even Ono Takeshi would have had a hard time rescuing the person in time. Besides, they had no right to ask him to take the risk.

But looking at Hatsune Kamon, who had no hope of survival, and Raita Banba, who was slumped on the ground and sobbing uncontrollably, the two exchanged a glance and sighed sadly.

A joyous occasion can turn into a tragedy in the blink of an eye; there is no greater sorrow in life than this.

Both Kudo and Yusaku felt genuine sympathy for Banba Raita.

Kogoro Mouri, in particular, also wore a sorrowful expression, but he did not lose his composure.

Seeing his friend like this, he immediately went up to him and pulled him up: "Come on, cheer up! The most important thing is to call an ambulance right away!"

"Yes, yes, call an ambulance! Hatsune can still be saved, right...? She'll be alright, she'll definitely be alright!"

As if grasping at a straw, Banba Raita hurriedly and shakily pulled out his phone, but after several attempts, he still couldn't unlock it.

At this moment, he had completely lost his composure and was utterly bewildered.

“I’ve already called for an ambulance.” Kudo Yusaku walked over, paused, and glanced at Banba Raita. “I also called the police…”

In an instant, Banba Raita's face turned as white as paper, as if all his strength had been drained away. If it weren't for Kogoro Mori supporting him, he probably would have collapsed to the ground again.

Kogoro Mouri hesitated, then could only let out a sigh.

Oni Takeshi glanced at the three of them, then turned his gaze to Kamon Hatsune, who was completely engulfed in flames...

……

The ambulance arrived a dozen minutes later.

However, looking at the car engulfed in flames, all they could do was show a helpless expression.

A moment later, the police arrived, led by the familiar Inspector Megure.

Upon seeing Kogoro Mouri present, a completely unsurprised expression immediately flashed across his face.

Upon learning that the person involved in the accident was the fiancée of the other party's classmate, and that Kogoro Mouri had come here to attend his classmate's bachelor party, he couldn't help but give this troublesome person another strange look.

The greatest blessing you can give your classmate is that they shouldn't have come at all!
Despite his complaints, Inspector Megure's expression was quite solemn. No matter what, this was a regrettable tragedy.

"The deceased's name is Hatsune Kamon, 37 years old. The suspected cause of death is an explosion caused by a vehicle fire..."

Since firefighters have not yet arrived, the fire cannot be extinguished and the bodies cannot be examined, but basic investigation work has begun.

Takagi Wataru, the professional assistant, approached Onino Takeshi and the others and began to question them about the scene of the crime.

Apart from Tomoba Raita, who was still sobbing and devastated by the sudden death of his fiancée, everyone else truthfully recounted what they had seen.

Unfortunately, they didn't get many useful clues.

The cause of the vehicle fire and explosion remains unknown, and therefore the perpetrator cannot be identified.

However, according to the usual pattern, the murderer is definitely still at the scene, foolishly waiting for the police to arrest him, and is closely related to the victim.

Therefore, Mrs. Lai, as the fiancé's companion, became a prime suspect in the crime.

However, the police have not yet found any evidence pointing to Raita Banba.

Nevertheless, everyone firmly believes that this was definitely not an accident.

Someone is trying to harm Hatsune Miku!
"Who! Who did this?! I'll find him and tear this damned bastard to pieces!"

Banba Lai clenched his fists, veins bulging, his eyes bloodshot, his face filled with deep-seated hatred and murderous intent.

Inspector Megure glanced at him. Although it was inappropriate to say these things in front of the police, considering the other person's current mood, he could only pretend not to hear it.

Kogoro Mouri comforted his friend.

Yukiko Kudo and the others who arrived also covered their mouths in shock, while feeling great sympathy for Raita Banba.

Yusaku Kudo frowned. Intuitively, the whole thing felt a little strange, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong.

Until he saw Oni Takeshi speak:
"It's a pity that the explosion had already happened when I arrived, but I found this next to the car."

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and were surprised to find a white cell phone lying in his hand.

Banba Raita immediately exclaimed, "It's Hatsune Miku's phone!"

Inspector Megure and his team were invigorated. The victim's phone hadn't been burned, so they might be able to find some clues to identify the real culprit.

As Yusaku Kudo watched Takeshi Onino hand his phone to Inspector Megure, a thoughtful look flashed across his eyes.

"Let me take a look..."

After being given the phone unlock password by Banba Raita, Inspector Megure operated the phone and looked through the information inside.

They quickly identified an important lead.

"The last call to Ms. Kamon on the communication log was at 8:05 AM, which was shortly before the explosion..."

Upon hearing Inspector Megure's words, everyone's eyes lit up, realizing that this coincidental phone call might be related to the explosion.

Without hesitation, Inspector Megure pressed the call-back button.

After a while.

"Moshimoshi... Nani?!"

Inspector Megure looked surprised; the person on the other end of the phone was actually a DNA testing agency.

After he revealed his identity and purpose, the response he received shocked him even more.

It turned out to be like this...

After hanging up the phone, Inspector Megure calmed himself down and then looked at Raita Banba with deep sympathy in his eyes.

Banba Raita was puzzled by the stares, and then impatiently asked, "Officer, how is it? Do you have any leads? Who is the other party? Is it related to the bombing of Hatsune Miku?"

By the end, he was gritting his teeth.

The others also turned their curious gazes toward Inspector Megure.

He didn't answer immediately, but remained silent for a while.

Finally, under everyone's gaze, he slowly spoke, his tone carrying an inexplicable heaviness:

"Mr. Banba..."

Inspector Megure took a deep breath and told him the sad news.

"This call was from a DNA testing agency. They said that Ms. Cameron recently commissioned them to test two genetic samples, one of Ms. Cameron herself and the other of yours."

"The test results show that the similarity between the two DNA samples is... 99.9%!"

"W-what do you mean?"

Banba Raita was taken aback and didn't quite understand for a moment, then asked in surprise.

"That means if the test results are normal, then it means that you, Mr. Banba, and Ms. Kamon are related by blood!"

At this moment, Yusaku Kudo stepped forward, spoke slowly, and his gaze fell on Raita Banba's astonished face.

He has figured everything out!
He offered explanations aloud, but inwardly sighed with sorrow; this was truly a regrettable tragedy…

Finally realizing what was happening, Banba Raita understood the meaning behind the other person's words, and his face instantly drained of all color.

Kudo Yusaku solemnly said, "Same birthday, same blood type, same experiences, sometimes you can know what the other is thinking without saying a word, and even the similarity of your genes is so high that they are almost identical. And then two people like this can meet, fall in love at first sight, and get married."

"Such a situation is too coincidental. From a probability standpoint, the possibility is extremely small, or even almost impossible."

"But if the two people are related by blood, then everything can be explained."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked!

Upon hearing this, Banba Raita froze on the spot, his expression revealing deep shock and uncontrollable panic. He stammered, "You...you mean...me and Hatsune Miku..."

The others also realized what was happening and looked at him with surprise and sympathy.

Yusaku Kudo nodded and explained in a low voice:

"Normally, identical twins should be the same sex, but there are exceptions. When the male XY chromosome of the fertilized egg divides into multiple cells, one of the Y chromosomes is lost, resulting in an XY male and an XO female."

"That is..."

He paused.

"...They turned into identical twins, one male and one female!"

"No, no way, you must be joking..."

Banba Raita instinctively turned pale and shook his head vigorously, vehemently denying the fact that his beloved lover had become his younger sister.

What the hell is this?!
(Duan Yu silently gave a thumbs up with tears in his eyes)
Everyone else present fell into a silent silence.

This is indeed an incredibly devastating tragedy.

Fate seemed to have played a cruel joke on this poor couple, plunging them into deep pain and pushing them into the abyss of despair.

In that instant, everyone seemed to understand the truth behind Hatsune Miku's death...
