On Saturday, April 3, around four o'clock in the morning, the Big Dipper III was on board.

As soon as Conan and Hattori went out, they encountered a tall man running in front of them, and Conan muttered, "That man rushed through the dark passage like a hungry beast." ”

"What?" Hattori asked.

At this moment, the aisle door of the No. 2 car was opened, and the man in the driver's uniform pointed to the man who had already run to the No. 4 car and shouted: "He killed someone! That man killed people with a gun!"

"What!" Hattori and Conan looked over and saw that the man had opened a room in car four, fired four shots into it, and then turned the muzzle of the gun to this side.

Hattori and Conan subconsciously protected their heads, and after hearing two gunshots, they quieted down again, and hurriedly looked over, and found that there was a light in the dark corridor, and the door of the bedroom was not closed, and through the bedroom, there was no figure in front of the door, and then the door closed.

Hattori immediately rushed over, and Conan froze in place, muttering, "However, there is no trace of the man in that place." ”

At this time, Mori and Yamazaki came out. ……

On the other side, in the third bedroom of car three.

As a woman's scream faintly came from the dining car, Yamazaki opened his eyes and showed a helpless smile, then pushed Maori, who was sleeping soundly, and said loudly, "It seems that something happened, uncle." ”

"What's the incident?" a man screamed, "He's killed!" and was about to get out of the bedroom with Yamazaki, when a man's shout came out, "He's killed! ……

Compartment 4 Bedroom 4.

Looking at the empty dormitory, with broken windows, and the pistol on the ground, Conan was stunned again, and silently said: "The wind outside the window blows the curtains and makes a sad sound. That's right! It's a novel! These things are very similar to the plot of that novel, the fantasy novel that my dad wrote a long time ago!"

"Damn, we're a step late. Hattori said.

"No, it's a trap. Is it possible that the man broke the glass with a pistol and jumped out of it?" Yamazaki asked rhetorically, "Do you think you should be making a movie when you jump down from a high-speed train like this in the dark of night?"

"What the hell is going on?" asked Maori to the chauffeur who came along.

The car owner said the incident, this prisoner just suddenly appeared in the dining car, pulled out a gun and killed Keitaro Izumo.

Maori said, "Then you go to the police and stop the car." ”

Che Zhang said, "I'll go now." With that, he left.

At this moment, some of the room doors were opened, some people looked in, and the dark hallways lit up.

At the same time, the garden came, "What's going on?" With her were Mei Daiko, Ran, and Kazuha.

Hattori explained what had happened, and during the time, the bus stopped.

Mei Daizi smiled: "You two are so lucky, you two didn't hit you so closely." ”

"It's his poor marksmanship. Yuan Zi smiled.

"He did it on purpose. "He escaped into the room so that people could witness him, and then closed the door." ”

Hattori said, "The problem is that the door is actually closed. ”

"That's the question, how did he close the door when he wasn't there. "Anyway, I don't think anyone would risk jumping out of a car." And then he said, "I'll go outside and have a look." ”

"I'll go too. Mei Daiko followed.

"Huh, what about people?" Hattori noticed that Conan was missing.

"Conan's words, I just ran to the second car. He Ye said.

"Really, running around again. Lan said, and went to him. ……

On the other side, car number two.

Conan was on the phone, thinking to himself, it was too similar to that novel, the inexplicable robbery incident as a foreshadowing, followed by the shooting in the train, as if the novel he read as a child was played out in reality, but it was the novel that my father had not published until now.

Thinking of this, Conan found that no one answered the phone, hung up the phone and complained: "Damn, I was too young at the time, and now I only have a vague impression, and those two guys, where are people going to play at such a critical juncture?" and then found that Miss Wise appeared not far away.

At this time, Lan came and took Conan away. ……

Soon after, the first car of the Hokuto No. 3, the Hokkaido side of the Seikan Tunnel, Fukushima Town, Matsumae-gun.

The police officer from the Matsumae Police Station arrived, and the police officer who led the team introduced himself as the Nishimura Police Department, and his subordinate was Officer Tamura.

After a preliminary investigation, Officer Tamura reported, "According to the driver's license and business card that the victim was carrying, the victim was Keitaro Izumo, a 56-year-old man who lived in Furushi City, Tokyo, and seemed to be the owner of a large jewelry store, and his wife and employees had recognized him as himself." "According to eyewitness testimony, the killer appears to have fired suddenly, then fled to his room and disappeared." ”

"Gone?" said the Nishimura police department.

"It's Mr. Detective from Tokyo," Officer Tamura said, and then whispered, "He's the Mori Kogoro Detective who ran into incidents everywhere he went, and although he didn't encounter an incident last time he came, the Tsurumai Hara has been scrapped." ”

The voice was small, but Maori still heard it, and it made him straighten his triangular eyes.

"Oh, it turned out to be you. The Nishimura Police Department said, "Detective Maori, please tell me what you saw again." ”

"No, I didn't see the one in front. Mori pushed Hattori and Conan out, "He and this kid saw it." ”

Hattori brought the Nishimura Police Department to the scene and told him what he had seen.

"The killer doesn't usually leave the gun in the car and run away, and if there are six shots, that is, there are two bullets left, it is very unnatural for the murderer to throw away the gun with bullets still there," Nishimura Police said, picking up the pistol on the ground, "It seems that it is still here." ”

"But how did you close this door?" asked Officer Tamura.

"I'll know this when I catch the murderer. The Nishimura police department said, "He is tall and easy to recognize, you first take someone to go through the people in the car, from the back to the front." ”

"Yes, police department. Officer Tamura took the order and left.

"Well, officer, how long is this going to take?" asked Che Zhang.

"How do I know, it depends on how many passengers you have in the car, maybe a few hours. Nishimura Police Department said.

"How many hours?" Che Paw was taken aback.

"Or you offer a couple of suspicious characters. The Nishimura police department asked, "For example, who communicated with the deceased?"

"If you say so, there are a few people. Maori said, "Mayor Stonehammer, his employee, Mr. Katsu, and a passenger, yes, um, Mr. Aoba, and of course his wife." ”

The Nishimura Police Department searched the rooms of the four and found a shotgun for shooting frisbees in Mrs. Izumo's room, a set of fishing tackle for Mr. Izumo in Kaetsu Rizzi's room, a bamboo sword for a match in Mr. Aoba's room, and a set of golf equipment in Mayor Ishizuma's room.

"Nothing suspicious. Nishimura Police Department said.

"By the way, there's another person. Che Zhang said. ……
