Chapter 155: Reversal of the Express, the Silver Star on the road to destruction (6)
—————May 3rd, 11:03 pm——————
—————Silver Star Train, Car 2, Restaurant——————
Gui Yueying pushed open the door of the second carriage and looked at the second carriage covered with ribbons, feeling somewhat confused.
What was going on? She felt like she was the only one left out. Why was that?
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you——————"
"Happy birthday to you!"
A familiar-looking guitarist is playing a first-rate song with a third-rate guitar and second-rate playing skills.
In Gui Yueying's opinion, the performance was not just bad, but completely bad!
However, those audience members who had no musical talent applauded and found it unbearable.
If Gui Yueying had a whip in her hand, she might have been unable to resist and whipped the guitarist's guitar twice!
"I'm telling you, there's definitely something wrong with this train."
In the corner of the restaurant, Genkou spoke to Conan with a solemn promise.
And Maori Ran and Maori Kogoro, who were originally with Conan, have gone to listen to the performance of that Toya.
As for Suzuki Sonoko? Well, maybe they thought that Ryosuke Arita, who dyed his hair back to black, was in line with their aesthetics, so they went to find Arita.
"...Then, what's the reason? Xiang Yuan, if the reason you're talking about is that you were on the train."
"Then I might believe that it was your bad luck that enveloped the train and caused some kind of case or something like that."
The shinigami elementary school student complained without hesitation.
However, Xiang Yuanguang shook his head and said as a matter of course.
"Of course it's because you and Uncle Maori were in the car at the same time. One is the god of death and the other is the god of plague."
"Not to mention a mere Silver Star, even Tokyo Tower can't withstand the two of you."
What? You, a damned plague magician, actually slandered me?
Don’t you know what “cases attract detectives” means?
Conan was furious and even wanted to take out an anesthetic needle to give him a shot.
However, he changed his mind and thought that the lawyer's fighting power was too high and the anesthetic injection might not work.
So, Conan shook his head and spoke earnestly.
"Xiang Yuan, it's the 21st century now. You have to believe in science, no matter if you are the god of plague or the god of death."
"We have to abide by the Basic Law. How can we expect to encounter problems wherever we go?"
"If that were the case, the world would have been destroyed long ago, right?"
In response, the hedgehog-headed lawyer touched his chin.
Don’t say, you really shouldn’t say, within half a year, there were thousands of murders in a small town like Beika.
It’s hard to say how long the whole world can last; it might disappear at any time.
"...Don't mention it. Where is Officer Takagi? And Officer Sato, where did they go?"
"I saw them in the restaurant when the birthday party was being prepared, why are they gone now?"
If Conan hadn't mentioned this to Genkou, he wouldn't have noticed the disappearance of the two detectives for a while.
He looked around and finally shook his head.
"I don't know. Maybe Officer Takagi is going to some quiet corner with Officer Sato to have a romantic date?"
"Don't make a fuss. The birthday cake will be out soon. Just focus on the birthday party."
The Death Elementary School Student spoke righteously.
"You only get one eighty-seventh birthday, grandma..."
"...It's really unfortunate to meet you on my eighty-seventh birthday."
However, Xiang Yuanguang didn't buy it at all. While he was complaining, he suddenly noticed a girl approaching.
She was wearing a gorgeous uniform, had short blue hair, and wore the prosecutor's medal with the pattern of Autumn Frost and Scorching Sun on her chest.
She looks very beautiful, but I always have a bad feeling about Yuan Guang.
He looked around and made sure that the girl didn't have a whip in her hand, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Genkou, the lawyer who defended the SL3 series of cases in Beikacho, Tokyo?" Kizuki Hotaru politely greeted her first, then asked softly.
Xiang Yuanguang didn't know what to say for a moment.
It was the first time he met such a polite prosecutor.
Then, in the next moment, Gui Yueying's words completely destroyed Xiang Yuanguang's good impression.
"I am the daughter of former Tokyo District Attorney Kizuki Ryuun... My name is Kizuki Hotaru."
"I have graduated from the United States Higher Judicial College and will soon be joining the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office."
"If you continue to defend yourself in Tokyo, we may meet in court."
Guiyueying? The daughter of Guiyue Liuyun? What kind of good daughter could that old Deng raise?
Modify evidence? Tamper with testimony? Bribe witnesses? Exploit weak points?
Among all the prosecutors, Xiang Yuanguang had an extremely bad impression of Guiyue Liuyun.
Although he did not deny that Guiyue Liuyun was the most decisive and powerful prosecutor he had ever met.
However, this guy's behavior is really unacceptable. A prosecutor who wins just for the sake of winning is no longer worthy of being called a prosecutor.
"Kimeki Hotaru...?"
Xiang Yuanguang narrowed his eyes, touched his chin subconsciously, and fell into thought.
At this moment, a cart loaded with birthday cakes passed by.
It attracted everyone's attention and interrupted Xiang Yuanguang's thinking.
The 87-year-old grandmother, who was already sitting in a wheelchair, was extremely moved when she saw the cake in front of her.
She glanced at the people around her, wiped her tears, and said gratefully.
"Thanks to everyone's help, I was able to have such a meaningful birthday party."
"This is the most meaningful birthday party I have ever had in my 87 years."
Buzz-——Buzz————Buzz————
The strings of the guitar were plucked, and MASTER Dongya walked towards the birthday cake.
He said with a smile while playing the guitar.
"Ms. Gia Munutti Pontaberno, every birthday party you have will be celebrated because of your experiences."
"And it will be more meaningful than your last birthday, just like your next birthday will be more meaningful than this one - happy birthday to you, the only birthday star today."
Grandma Jamnudi nodded and wiped her tears with her handkerchief.
Then, he looked at MASTER Touya and said gratefully.
"Thank you for your blessing, Mr. Xiang Yuan, and I hope your music career will get better and better."
Xiang Yuanguang, who had just been listening to the conversation here, suddenly frowned.
Hmm? Mr. Xiang Yuan? Me? How did the old lady know that I studied art? No, I have never touched art in my life. How strange... Is there another Mr. Xiang Yuan on the field?
Xiang Yuanguang's gaze slowly moved from Jamnuti's face to the face of the musician holding a guitar next to him.
Oh, I see. You, Tama, are the original owner’s cheap father, Xiang Yuan Dongmi, right?
Okay, okay, the original owner couldn’t bear to beat you, but I can. You didn’t even come back to see Old Man Xiang Yuan after he died.
Today I will send you to Sanzu River to apologize to Mr. Xiang Yuan.
The Hedgehog Head suddenly stood up at this moment, rolled up his sleeves, and planned to directly replicate Tan Li Dou Dayi's beating of his own father. Don't ask, the only thing he meant is, "Please accept this insignificant concern."
However, due to the perspective, the old lady did not see Hedgehog Head's movements.
She pushed the wheelchair forward and was about to blow out the candle when the lights in the second carriage suddenly dimmed.
Xiang Yuanguang's eyes suddenly became dark and he could only see the candlelight, so he had to give up.
Let’s talk about it after the birthday party.
However, Xiang Yuanguang could never have imagined that today's trains have undergone such tremendous changes.
