Could it really be an accident?

Looking at the gymnasium that was tumbling and twisting in flames, Sakaki Makoto had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Back off! Back off!"

The fire truck drove into the campus, and the team members wearing helmets and holding water guns began to evacuate the bystanders.

A huge column of water was poured onto the flames, but it was just a drop in the bucket.

"I...the newly built gymnasium..."

The old principal standing at the back wanted to cry but had no tears. He knew...

I'm afraid the stadium can't be saved.

"Watch out for the trees around you!"

A firefighter who looked like a captain gave the order:

"And the flower beds, don't let the fire spread to other locations!"

"yes!"

After two hours of non-stop rescue work, the fire was finally brought under control.

It's a bit inappropriate to say it's control, because...

Everything that can be burned has been burned.

Firefighters entered the crumbling gymnasium and began to clear the fire.

After a while...

"Report, report!"

A firefighter rushed over and shouted to the captain:

"A body was found in the fire!"

"What?!"

The captain was startled.

Although it is common to find bodies at fire scenes,...

Once the body is found, it means that the case is no longer the responsibility of their fire department.

"Notify the Metropolitan Police Department and have them send someone to take over the investigation!"

Regardless of whether the person was accidentally burned to death or was murdered, the case should be handed over to the Metropolitan Police Department for handling.

"Teacher Xiaolin, please ask all the students to return to the classroom."

At this moment, the old principal showed extraordinary calmness. As a principal, he should protect his students.

The horrific corpse was not something they should come into contact with.

"I see!"

Kobayashi Sumiko nodded, turned around quickly, and asked the teachers to take the curious students back to the classroom.

"well..."

Sakaki Makoto held his forehead and sighed, muttering:

"I just know..."

"Nothing good will happen if I'm with Conan..."
