Case Closed #69
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume of the long-running manga series Case Closed collects chapters from the ongoing mystery saga, centering on young detective Jimmy Kudo (in his shrunken Conan Edogawa form) as he unravels a case involving a suspicious death with a peculiar physical clue. The title refers to a murder where the victim's body is arranged in a specific pose, leading Conan and his allies through a puzzle of alibis and forensic details. Published by Viz Media as part of their 2019 re-release, this edition continues the series' trademark blend of detective logic and suspenseful storytelling.
In "The Client from the Deep," Jimmy and the Junior Detective League find themselves at a remote hot springs resort sharing the retreat with a film crew shooting a sequel to a beloved detective series. When the notoriously difficult screenwriter takes a fatal fall in the baths, the teens must untangle the mystery behind the seemingly accidental death—before the real culprit slips away. Written by Gosho Aoyama and Tetsuichiro Miyaki, with art and inks by Gosho Aoyama, and lettered by Freeman Wong, this case brings the usual sharp wit and clever clues to a steamy, suspenseful setting. The cover, also by Gosho Aoyama, captures the tension with a striking, moody scene from the bathhouse.
