Chapter 159: Gunshots in the Night
One "Yoichi! What do you mean by killings? ”
After dinner, Yuichi, who didn't see the suspicious woman that Conan said, and didn't want to continue listening to Maori Kogoro brag in the dining car, excused himself to go to bed and returned to his and Judy's double compartment, Judy, who was interested in what he and Conan said about killing people before, made their beds and stretched their backs to ask.
"Ahh It's because of what the gangsters said! That sentence is different from what I said at the beginning, this sentence is exactly the same as the content in the book written by Uncle Yusaku, Conan may not remember it clearly when he was young, but I was very impressed by this book, because it was the first detective I came into contact with, but it's a pity! Uncle Yusaku lost the manuscript after half of it was written by the editor.,Later, disheartened, he ended the serialization of that book and wrote it instead of another detective! It was stillborn before it was published, but until now I think it's much better than the Night Baron! That's why Stone Hammer Akira said this, and I fell into deep thought! ”
"Then what you mean by murder is ......"
"That's right! If it's not a coincidence that the gangster said this, it's that someone is arranging this murder drama according to my uncle's book, because if I'm not mistaken, it's the same kind of opening in that book, and then the murderer starts killing people on the train according to his own plan! What is the description of that paragraph? Let me think about it! ”
"Gunshots and screams ...... in the rumble of the tunnel"
"That's right! It's the tunnel! The murderer completed his murder with the help of the cover of the tunnel! Judy, do we have any tunnels on this route? ”
"Tunnels? Show me the map! You're really ...... Is this an occupational disease of the police? You're more sensitive than when you're there, and just because the gangster's words match the plot of a book you've read, you think there will be a homicide on this train? Me too...... Hey? There is actually a tunnel, and if we count the distance we travel, we will enter this tunnel called the Seikan Tunnel in a few minutes! How? Is my police officer going to go out and save the world as Superman? ”
Looking at Yuichi, who had been suspicious since the end of dinner, Judy smiled helplessly and then pointed to the route on the map and complained to him.
"Is there really a tunnel? That's a coincidence, isn't it? Could it be that the murderer really committed the murder on the train? Who is the target? Could it be Keitaro Izumo who stopped him? No way! I've got to go out and see! Although I don't know where Keitaro Izumo lives, I may be able to meet him if I go to the chess and card room! ”
Although it is difficult to understand, Yuichi, who believes that his sixth sense will not go wrong, still decides to go out and see the situation, not to save the life of Keitaro Yun, but to catch the bastard who robbed Uncle Yusaku's manuscript, and he wants to catch this bastard who let him read the first eunuch book in his life It has not been a day or two for a long time.
However, just as Yuichi put on his clothes and was about to try his luck in the chess and card room to see if he could find Keitaro Izumo, a sudden gunshot woke up countless passengers who had fallen asleep.
"What's the situation? Did anyone set off firecrackers on a train to play a prank? It's noisy in the middle of the night! I curse him......"
"Damn! It's noisy! Isn't it good to sleep quietly? ”
"Ah!! Someone shot and killed! Come on! ”
"Bastard! Sure enough, it was gunshots, and it seemed to be in the direction of the chess and card room, Judy, don't move in the carriage! I'll go see how it goes! ”
"Bastard! You give me back! Knowing that the other party has a gun, what can you do? The train aisle is so narrow that you can't dodge even if the other party shoots! The situation on the train is handled by the police, what kind of hero are you an amateur policeman here? Just stay in the carriage obediently! I'm not going anywhere! ”
"But this gangster who shot may really have something to do with the book that Uncle Yusaku lost! Just catch him and you'll be able to get the manuscript back! In this case, maybe Uncle Yusaku will write out the plot later! And the police may not be able to solve this kind of tricky case, at this time, if I don't come out to pretend to be a beep, when will I come out and pretend to be forced? If I'm not mistaken......"
"The man walked through the dark passage like a hungry beast......"
Yuichi, who had this passage in his mind, hurriedly pulled the carriage and rushed out, and the moment he opened the car door, a figure rushed past in front of him. Then the shouting police also ran in front of his car.
"Don't move! Stop me! Otherwise, I'll shoot! ”
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang!"
"Ahh
Just as Yuichi was about to follow the police to see the gangster who rushed over, suddenly a few bullets knocked the police officer who rushed in front of his door to the ground, and Yuichi, who saw that the situation was not good, hurriedly hid back in the carriage.
By the time he cautiously poked his head out of the door of the carriage, the three of Mori Kogoro and Conan Xiaolan in the next room had already run into the aisle of the carriage and were rushing down the aisle towards a room, apparently they had just seen which room the gangsters had entered.
After squatting down and checking the situation of the two policemen, Yuichi, who was afraid that Conan would make a mistake, tore off the walkie-talkie on the policeman's shoulder and shouted for help, and hurriedly picked up the gun in the hand of the policeman who had lost his breath, and chased Conan and the others over.
"But the man is no longer there......"
When Yuichi, who suddenly remembered this sentence, rushed to the room where Conan and the others had entered, the entire carriage was empty, except for a glass window that had been shattered.
"Only the howling wind and the sound of the train play a noisy melody......"
"Damn! Did this bastard escape from the train by jumping out of the window? ”
"Nope! He must still be on the train, I swear! Because the situation we encountered is exactly the same as the plot in a mystery book written by my uncle! Now I'm completely sure that the guy who committed this murder is the same group of bastards who robbed my uncle's manuscript when he robbed the bank more than ten years ago, and they are playing out the fantasy script with real human lives! ”
"Huh? Follow the routine to kill? It's simply ...... Fantastic! Especially, I watched him enter this room and follow him! How can you be sure he didn't jump? ”
"Don't worry about that yet! Uncle Maori is going to inform the police and the conductor that we may need to stop for a moment to check on the situation in the tunnel! Since the killer faked the escape scene, he will definitely let us see what we want to see, which means that there may be a corpse in the tunnel waiting to be identified! ”
Mori Kogoro, who was still puzzled in his heart, was sent to contact the police, and Yuichi slowly checked around this carriage, since Mori Kogoro said that he saw the gangsters running into this carriage, then he had to see through the gangsters' tricks. Otherwise, even if the gangster is caught, the gangster will not admit it.
