Chapter 170: Reversal of the Express, the Silver Star on the road to destruction (21)
From the beginning, the intense gunfire never stopped.
The sound was particularly clear in the third car, which was close to the first car.
Takagi Wataru, who was ignored because of the sudden appearance of Mouri Kogoro, was sitting in the room.
I was already confused and didn't know why there was so much gunfire on the Silver Star.
Did someone else try to escape the train and was chased by the train crew? Or was there another reason?
Tick, tick, tick, tick.
There were hurried footsteps passing by the door, and Officer Takagi couldn't help but open it.
The first person he saw was lawyer Eri Kisaki, and he quickly asked her about it.
"What happened in the first car?"
Lawyer Fei said without hesitation.
"A murderer with a gun has sneaked into the first carriage and is now exchanging gunfire with the crew."
"I saw him coming down from the ceiling. Be careful of the ceiling!"
Rick, the flight attendant next to him, nodded.
"Because we don't know if the guy in the first car has any accomplices, so, next..."
"We will move everyone from the third car to the fourth car, and we will gather our manpower there."
"Don't let other criminals have the opportunity to hurt people."
(The third car is transferred to the fourth car... away from the crossfire area?)
(However, if the murderer can move through the ceiling, then can I do the same?)
Officer Takagi suddenly had an idea and he spoke quickly.
"I see. I'm going to the bathroom and will be in carriage 4 shortly."
"Well, be careful. We will do our best to protect the safety of the passengers."
The flight attendant Rick nodded and quickly led everyone to the location of the mobile court - the second carriage.
The toilet is now located in the fourth carriage, near the door of the second carriage.
Conan, who had left the room earlier and was about to go to the second carriage, has stopped.
Because he noticed that Kuma Sukawa was in the second carriage, if he told the people inside directly.
Kuma Sukawa might just attack and hurt someone? Then someone might get hurt or even die.
(It seems that I can’t go in directly. What should I do next… the ceiling?)
(Since that guy can move through the ceiling, there's no reason why I can't.)
With a thought in mind, Conan squatted down and made some adjustments to his sneakers.
With the crackling sound of electricity, the Grim Reaper elementary school student jumped directly from the toilet lid next to him.
Click——————
After removing the partition of the ceiling, Conan grabbed the edge of the ceiling and flipped directly into the empty space.
He pulled his flip phone from his pocket and used the light from the phone to illuminate the room.
As funny as it sounds, the fact is that the flight attendants seemed to assume that the children did not have mobile phones.
Therefore, no one asked him for communication equipment at all, and therefore, Conan's communication equipment has always been there.
However, on the current Silver Star train, mobile phones are just scrap metal.
It seems like something like a signal blocker has been activated here.
Only specific signals should be able to communicate with the outside world, and Conan's mobile phone obviously does not meet this condition.
Rustle, rustle, rustle.
Conan was still moving towards the second carriage, preparing to use his own anesthetic needle to give Kuma Sukawa an injection. This way, he could easily get rid of Kuma Sukawa in the second carriage.
However, what he didn't expect was that after he had walked forward for a while, a voice sounded behind him.
"Don't move! Who are you? Why are you here?"
As soon as Sato Miwako climbed out of the room and climbed onto the gap in the ceiling, she saw a dark shadow in front of her.
Although she didn't have a gun with her, she subconsciously called out to the dark shadow in front of her and wanted to chase after it.
(This voice… Officer Sato Miwako? At this time?)
Conan's mind was working. He turned off the light on his phone and then spoke using a voice changer.
"Officer Sato, don't come over here again... I'm Kudo Shinichi, and I'm aboard to investigate the Silver Star incident."
Kudo Shinichi? This famous detective hasn't appeared in a long time...
There was a lot of suspicion in Officer Sato's eyes, but the distance was too far and there was no light source.
She couldn't see the shape of the dark figure in the darkness at all.
"Right now, a bomb has been planted on the Silver Star train, and the second carriage of the mobile trial is currently being conducted."
"There is an accomplice of the bomber inside. His real identity is a prosecutor from the Tokyo Public Prosecutors Office... Kuma Sukawa."
"I'm going to the second car to stop Kuma Sukawa from committing a crime. Please don't follow me."
The Death God Elementary School Student said so.
"Also, I suspect there are bombs installed on the ceilings of other carriages. Please go investigate."
(Although the voice is indeed Kudo Shinichi's, but, is that person really Kudo Shinichi?)
Sato Miwako hesitated to speak.
(Also, shouldn’t the second car be in the other direction? On the other side of the fourth car…)
(There is no way to get to other carriages...)
(Forget it, let’s go to the third carriage to meet up with Takagi first.)
Officer Sato changed direction, but didn't move forward for long.
She was filled with shock, because right in front of her there really was a bomb.
"Is what you said actually true? Is that person really Kudo Shinichi?"
Without time to think, Officer Sato relied on the brief light emitted by the green light of the bomb.
Quickly check the current situation of the bomb——————
(This bomb is not complicated, but it is impossible to defuse without sufficient light.)
(If the bombers that Kudo Shinichi was referring to were not the crew members of the Silver Star train.)
(Well, maybe I can ask the flight attendant for help...?)
"Wow, why is there a bomb here!?"
Takagi Wataru's voice came from the ceiling space of the front carriage.
It was obvious that another criminal police officer also seized the opportunity and planned to move through this space.
However, Officer Takagi did not expect that there was a bomb in the ceiling space of the carriage.
(Is there a bomb not only on the ceiling of the fourth car, but also on the ceiling of the third car?)
(Then, could it be that the first and second carriages were also bombed?)
Miwako Sato thought quickly.
(Kudo Shinichi said he would go to the second car to kill the bomber's accomplice if he saw the bomb.)
(It will definitely be defused immediately, so only the bomb in the first car has a chance of exploding.)
(But the first car is the most dangerous car, connecting the coal car to the locomotive.)
(If the first car explodes and we lose communication with the outside world, wouldn’t that mean we’re doomed?)
(…No matter what, let’s first eliminate the bomb here.)
Tick, tick, tick, tick.
The sound of hurried footsteps echoed in the corridor below the ceiling.
Many people ran through the corridor.
