Chapter 883: The Dark Express Train (Puzzle Part )

After leaving the carriage where Mao Lilan and others were staying, everyone walked back and planned to go to carriage B in the next carriage.

If it was really car No. 8, then the previous car should be car No. 7.

But when they arrived at the next carriage and passed the D carriage, the door suddenly opened and Miyano Shiho was about to come out.

She saw Yuya and the others and asked casually, "How is it, have you solved the mystery?"

It's just a game. Should Yuya and Conan be able to solve it instantly?

However, to her surprise, when these people saw her, they all froze in place.

Yuya even had a moment of doubt whether his math level was not even that of a kindergartener.

He asked Miyano Shiho for confirmation: "Mio, is this our room in carriage 6?"

He looked at Miyano Shiho expectantly, hoping that she would say that she was visiting someone else's room.

However, to his disappointment, Miyano Shiho nodded and replied, "Yes." She pointed inside the room and said, "The children's half-eaten snacks are still there."

Yuya and Conan quickly walked to the door and looked inside. When they saw the snacks, their pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.

How could this be?

They just came from carriage No. 8 where Mao Lilan and the other two were, and went back one carriage, which should have been carriage No. 7. How did they end up in carriage No. 6 as if they were traveling through space?

Not only Yuya and Conan were shocked, the three little kids also showed frightened expressions.

Carriage No. 7...disappeared before their eyes?

Youya hesitated for a moment and said, "Follow me."

He planned to find the conductor at the rear of the train and ask him about the disappearance of carriage No. 7.

You also noticed that the mysterious train did not number the carriages, so if he wanted to confirm the carriage number, he could only ask the conductor.

But the conductor didn't believe it at all. He said with a smile: "Car No. 7 disappeared? How is this possible..."

He looked at the people in front of him, and a look of understanding flashed in his eyes - is this the older kid playing games with a few younger kids?

Yuan Tai shouted unwillingly: "But, we did see an uncle being shot in the chest in Room B of Carriage 7 just now!"

"The criminal ran away right after committing the crime! We chased him but accidentally lost him!"

Mitsuhiko continued, "When we returned, we found that Carriage No. 7 was gone and it had become Carriage No. 8!"

Hearing this, the conductor pretended to be surprised, but then smiled crookedly: "Since you have a pistol... why don't you immediately find the conductors in other cars?"

In addition to serving passengers, the train attendants on the train also have certain security responsibilities.

At this time, a bell rang and the indicator light on the door of the front compartment lit up - the passengers in this compartment needed service.

The conductor stood up quickly after seeing this and said to Youya and the others, "Because of the boss's arrangement, the carriages here are not numbered. If you want to confirm whether carriage No. 7 has disappeared, you should go to the carriage behind and ask the conductor."

After saying that, he ignored everyone, walked to the room where the indicator light was on, and knocked on the door.

There was no choice, Yuya and his companions could only go back to the carriage they had just been in, go to the rear of the train and find the conductor there.

However, to everyone's shock, the conductor said that this car was Carriage No. 7!

Mitsuhiko was shocked: "What's going on! Carriage No. 7 appeared again!"

Ayumi grabbed Yuya's trouser leg in fear: "What's going on? Is this a ghost train?"

The three little brats were completely at a loss. They looked at Conan out of habit, and found that he was in deep thought, so they had to turn to Yuya for help.

Yuya pinched his chin, and when he came to his senses, he immediately realized that car No. 7 could not have really disappeared, so... one of the three people including Mouri Ran and the conductor was lying!

He decided to go to carriage B again to check the situation.

When we arrived at carriage B and opened the door, Ran Mouri, Suzuki Sonoko and Masumi Sera appeared inside again.

This time, Sera Masumi sat down with a cup of tea in his hand.

As soon as the door opened, three people looked over.

Yuya was silent for a moment, then asked, "Um, is this really carriage number 8?"

Suzuki Sonoko said impatiently: "Didn't I tell you that this is car No. 8? And you have to knock on the door! Knock on the door! You are so rude!"

She stood up with an angry face and pushed You to drive him out.

Yuya frowned slightly. Why did Sonoko react so strongly? Although she was a little out of tune at ordinary times, she would never do something as rude as chasing someone away.

It was as if she was afraid that he would discover something.

Thinking of this, Youya's eyes quickly swept across the room, and finally stopped suddenly on a certain person, and a flash of lightning flashed through his mind.

"Wait." Yuya held Suzuki Sonoko's arm, with a smile on his face.

Suzuki Sonoko looked at Yuya in surprise and became nervous. Was he discovered?

Conan also looked up suddenly. Could it be that Yuu also knew something? Damn, he got there first again!

Yuya had a faint smile on his face. He looked into Suzuki Sonoko's eyes and said word by word, "This room is actually Room B in Carriage 7, right?"

Suzuki Sonoko's eyes flashed with panic, and she still wanted to save the situation: "I-already-said-it..."

Yuya threw out the evidence and took out the card he had gotten before from his pocket, pinching it between two fingers: "Sonoko, you guys also got a card like this, right?"

"I saw it when we first came in. Sera-san was holding it, although she's holding tea now."

Everyone's eyes fell on Sera Masumi, who knew he couldn't pretend any longer and simply admitted it, "The answer is correct!"

Conan was stunned, his mind racing, and he immediately figured out the key.

However, even though he figured it out, he was still a step slower than Youya and could only drop his shoulders in frustration.

Suzuki Sonoko put her hands on her hips and said unyieldingly: "Sera, why did you admit it so quickly?"

Sera Masumi smiled helplessly: "With Kamiya-san's ability, since he said this, it means he has solved the puzzle. There is no point in continuing to pretend."

Suzuki Sonoko actually understood this principle better than Sera Masumi, and what she said just now was just an attempt to struggle again.

What if?

At this point, Suzuki Sonoko had no choice but to return to her seat angrily, puffing up her cheeks to look unhappy.

Mao Lilan smiled and said: "As expected of Yuya, you are really amazing." She didn't dare to speak just now because she was afraid of being exposed.

She glanced at Conan secretly, with a slight smile on her face - it seemed that Conan had lost to Yuya again, how many times had this happened? It seemed like she couldn't count them all.

Yuya had a smile on his face as if he had solved the puzzle, but he was actually complaining in his heart - he trusted Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko too much and did not doubt their words at all.

Sera Masumi smiled, looked at Yuya and asked, "Tell me about your reasoning?"

Yuya replied: "If I'm guessing correctly, the card you got should say that this is part of a reasoning puzzle, asking you to temporarily exchange rooms with the passenger who plays the victim in this room, so that the person in charge of playing the detective will be confused and create the illusion that car No. 7 has disappeared, right?"

Sera Masumi said with great admiration: "Absolutely correct!"

Suzuki Sonoko said in despair, "Yes, the card said that we should exchange rooms with the passenger who played the victim in Room B of Carriage 7 to make the mystery more interesting, so we came! But I didn't expect you to see through it so quickly!"

Masumi Sera added, "I just happened to see them changing rooms when I came to visit, so I joined them."

"Ahhh, I'm so mad!" Suzuki Sonoko slapped the sofa angrily.

She hasn't smiled for long! Why is Yuya doing something so fast? Can't he just let her be happy for a while?
