Chapter 289: Hell Puppeteer

"Everyone, welcome to the Magic Train!"

The magic show begins, and a magician wearing a bowler hat and a black cape arrives at the dining car to give a speech, with a catfish mustache and a goatee, which looks quite funny.

"I am the leader of the Fantasy Magic Troupe, Fumio Yamagami, known as the gentleman mountain god, please enjoy the magic show of our Fantasy Magic Troupe!"

As the train continues to move, the members of the magic troupe appear one after another, the mermaid princess who performs water magic, the clown who performs card magic, the psychic who performs spiritual magic, and the short-haired girl who performs marionette at the beginning.

Even though breakfast time had passed, the passengers who had eaten stayed in the dining car to watch the show, and even though it was just some improvisational magic, the audience still felt quite new and applauded.

Gao Cheng took out the brochure of the original performance of the Fantasy Magic Troupe and looked at it, he was more concerned about the threatening letter sent to the Metropolitan Police Department than the magic show, which seemed to have something to do with this magic troupe.

The head of the group, the gentleman mountain god, founded the fantasy magic troupe five years ago, and is good at performing fire magic.

The second highest status of the magic troupe is a young man with long golden hair, Yurama, a noble son, who is good at performing magic tricks that make the audience stand on the stage and cooperate, and is famous all over the world.

The beautiful woman who performs water magic is called "Mermaid Yumi", and I heard that she is the wife of the head of the group, the gentleman Yamagami, and is good at water escape performances.

The clown who performs card magic is called "Clown Left Near Temple", and he is a big-backed man who pretends to be stupid and amused, and although he is called a clown, his card magic skills are exceptionally good.

The psychic who performs spiritual magic is called Sakuraba and specializes in hypnotism and superpower magic.

Then came the magic troupe trainee magician Satomi Kuma, who appeared at the beginning, was only 18 years old.

The last one is the manager of the magic troupe, a middle-of-the-road young man with glasses, who is far away......

"Gao Yuan, are you annoyed?!" A table behind the dining car suddenly sounded scolding, and a young man with long blond hair said angrily, "Actually let me perform magic tricks for these people who are almost nothing!" ”

Gao Cheng looked back and found that the long-haired young man happened to be the noble son Yurama in the brochure, and it was the manager of the magic troupe who was scolded for it.

"I'm really sorry for you, Mr. Yurama......" the manager, Haruka Takato, whispered.

"What the hell is going on with the Commander?" Yurama was dissatisfied, "I just came out to say hello at the beginning, but now I haven't shown up for an hour!" ”

"This ...... Well," Gao Yuanyao wiped his sweat, "I've been looking for him on the train since just now, but I can't find him anywhere...... So now I can only rely on you, the second-in-command of the group......"

"Has it been more than an hour?" Gao Cheng looked at the watch time.

There's not much time left before the terminal Dead Bone Plain, is it really just a prank this time?

"Dididi!" After Yurama reluctantly finishes his performance, the mobile phone in Twilight's pocket suddenly rings.

"Huh?" Twilight reaches out and pulls out a cell phone in confusion, "Strange, isn't this my phone?" When the hell will ......?"

"Twilight Police, give it to me."

Gao Cheng stood up, took the phone from Twilight's hand, and pressed the answer button, hearing the same strange voice as last night.

"Welcome to the Magic Train! Was the trip still enjoyable? ”

"You're the puppeteer of hell who sent threatening letters, aren't you? There should be a limit to pranks! Gao Cheng said in a deep voice.

"Prank?" The other side of the phone smiled, "Hehe, it seems that you haven't figured out the situation yet, I actually want to inform you that the bomb I set on this train is about to explode!" ”

"Bomb?!"

Gao Cheng's face tightened, and before he could say anything, the rose salad next to him suddenly exploded with a loud bang, and the rose petals flew everywhere, although the power was not too great, it still startled everyone in the dining car.

"It's ......"

"Got it?" The other side of the phone smiled and said, "I'm serious, the next fireworks will be bigger, hehehehe." ”

"Bastard!" Twilight came back to her senses and grabbed her phone and shouted, "Who the hell are you?" What do you want to do?! ”

"Hear me," the voice continued, "there's still 20 minutes left until the next explosion, and if something is not done, the whole train will be blown away!" ”

Twilight clenched her fists and slammed the table, "Damn! Hang up! Takagi, hurry up and inform the train conductor! You have to evacuate nearby! ”

"I see!" Takagi nodded and hurriedly ran away.

After a while, the conductor's voice sounded: "Passengers, I'm very sorry, we just received a bomb on the train...... There will be an emergency stop at a nearby truck station in five minutes, so please be ready to get off as soon as possible! ”

"Bombs?" In the high-class sleeper car, a blonde boy heard the radio and put down the books in his hand, and sighed helplessly, "It shouldn't have been that I ran into those plague detectives, right?" I just said that I hadn't seen each other for a long time......"

"Hurry up! Hurry up! ”

At the truck station, passengers scrambled to get off the train with large bags and small bags.

"Please don't panic, come one by one!" The conductors were busy at the door of the train to guide the crowd and push, "Slow down! ”

"What's slow? What if you get caught in the explosion? ”

Gao Cheng stood by the railway, frowning and looking at the chaotic and noisy crowd.

It's strange, since that "hell puppeteer" has installed a bomb on the train, why did he have to call to remind him, and make it clear when the explosion occurred.

What is this for?

And the threatening letters that began to be sent to the Metropolitan Police Department are also very strange, why did they bring the police here?

Want to provoke the police?

Gray Yuan stood next to him with his hands behind his back: "I'm afraid that the car is not equipped with the bomb that the other party said, the prisoner looks like he detonated the bomb after observing our actions and reactions up close, and it is very likely that he is in the car." ”

"The prisoner is in the car?" Gao Cheng was stunned, "But why did he do this?" Is it really a prank? ”

"What should I do," Gao Yuanyao anxiously looked among the evacuees, "where did the regiment commander go......

The people of the magic troupe got together, saw the manager Gao Yuanyao, and asked, "What's the matter, Mr. Gao Yuan?" ”

Gao Yuanyao had a headache and said; "Ah, I can't find the head of the regiment anywhere, but it's ...... at this time"

"The head hasn't been found yet?"

Hearing this, Gao Cheng looked at the manager of the magic troupe who was sweating profusely.

"Have you looked for it on the train?"

"I've found ......"

"Humph!" The long-haired young man Yurama said coldly, "I think I was scared by the bomb and slipped away alone, right?" ”

Gao Cheng's eyes trembled slightly as he looked at the train parked on the tracks.

Although there was no evidence yet, goosebumps had begun to develop on his body, as if a chill was coming to his face.

It was his gut reaction, maybe the event had happened, but why......

"It's five minutes before the explosion, and everyone is out, right?" Twilight looked at the time and said to Takagi, "Hurry up and contact the local police......

"Wait a minute, officer, I think the bomb was just a false alarm." A nasty and familiar voice suddenly sounded beside Gao Cheng.

The corners of his eyes drooped, and he still looked gloomy that he hadn't woken up......

Gao Cheng frowned.

Shi Jin Runya, I met this guy again.

"Oh? Isn't this a Joto detective? ”

Tokitsu Junya walked through the crowd, his eyes swept over Twilight and noticed Gao Cheng next to him, and chuckled, "When I was passing through Tokyo, I was thinking about whether to visit, but I didn't expect to meet me on the car back to Hokkaido." ”

"I don't want to bump into ...... at all," Gao Cheng muttered angrily.

"You are?" Twilight looked at Shi Jin in confusion.

"The contemptible is a high school detective, Tokitsu Junya," Tokitsu gracefully turned to Twilight, "Just like the contemptible just said, the so-called bomb is just a farce, and the prisoner himself is in this car, how can he set off a bomb to blow himself up?" Am I right, Detective Joto? ”

Twilight looked at Gao Cheng inquiringly.

"It's possible that the prisoner is riding in this car," Gao Cheng looked directly at the train track, "but isn't everyone getting off the train now?" You can't say that there are really no bombs, right? Regardless, it's always good to be careful. ”
