Chapter 884: The Dark Express Train (Interlude)

You also curled his lips: "I trusted you so much, but in the end you are the ones who lied the most."

Ran Mouri smiled awkwardly. She was really not good at lying, so she was very nervous when she was acting just now, afraid that Yuya and Conan would see through her.

"Speaking of which," Yuya suddenly asked, "Where is Uncle Kogoro?"

Mao Lilan explained: "The guest who played the victim said that Dad should wait in the dining car instead of here, and said that he should play the role of a detective to solve the mystery."

Youye nodded in understanding: "Is that so." But doesn't he have a detective here?

Suzuki Sonoko chuckled twice and changed the subject: "Okay, okay, we have solved the puzzle. Let's go find the conductor. There will definitely be a reward!"

"Okay! Go quickly!" The three little kids immediately ran out of the room excitedly.

Several adults hurriedly followed.

Yuya and Miyano Shiho followed at the back, and the latter said to Yuya with a half-smile: "I never thought that you would be deceived one day."

Youye lowered his dead eyes and chuckled twice.

He and Conan trusted the people in the room too much, so they did not suspect them at first. Otherwise, if Yuya had observed more carefully at that time, he would have discovered the clues.

Putting aside Masumi Sera, they didn’t expect that the people who “backstabbed” them were two of the people they trusted most.

If Miyano Shiho was also among them, Yu would probably be deceived even more miserably?

They all went to the rear of the carriage and told the conductor that they had solved the mystery.

But when the conductor took the two cards, he looked puzzled.

"Yes, this is exactly the same as the instruction card used before, but the content on it is completely different from the trick I heard, and the reasoning puzzle this time will not be announced for another hour."

The conductor said and returned the cards to Suzuki Sonoko and Yuya.

Suzuki Sonoko stared at the card in her hand with a puzzled look on her face: "What's going on?"

Yuya and Conan were thinking about it. They thought the conductor said that just now to cooperate with Suzuki Sonoko's acting to mislead them. Now it seems that there must be some hidden story.

Sera Masumi suggested: "At this point, we can only go to carriage 8 and ask the guest who plays the victim to find out what's going on."

Everyone agreed.

Yuan Tai raised his hand and shouted, "Before that, I have to go to the bathroom."

So are Mitsuhiko and Ayumi.

Miyano Shiho said, "I'll go with them. I was planning to go to the bathroom just now."

So, Miyano Shiho took the three children to the bathroom, and the rest of the people went to carriage No. 8.

At this time, the train entered the tunnel and the carriage suddenly became dark. Only the faint light from the lights on the roof prevented it from being too dim.

Carriage No. 8, door of compartment A.

"Mr. Noto!"

"Mr. Noto!"

The conductor knocked on the door.

Noto Taisaku opened the door and said impatiently, "What's going on? I didn't ask you to come over!"

The conductor was stunned: "The bell just rang..."

Noto Taisaku complained, "Who knows? I couldn't find you when I wanted to, and you came to disturb my rest when I had nothing to do."

At the same time, the door of Room B next door was pushed open, and Qiao Yueren, who played the victim, half of his head was exposed with a phone in his hand.

He said to the person on the other end of the conversation, "It's okay. There seems to be some trouble next door. It seems that the conductor just made a mistake."

Noto Taisaku complained and then slammed the door shut.

Seeing this, Qiao Yueren also retreated back to the room.

As soon as the door closed, the bell rang again in the dim corridor and the conductor hurried over.

The conductor looked up at the indicator light on the door and confirmed that it was carriage E at the end of the carriage. He then ran over to turn off the indicator light, straightened his clothes and knocked on the door.

The person in the E compartment was Izumi Marie, who had boarded the train with Noto Taisaku. As soon as she opened the door, she loudly rebuked the conductor: "I said, can you think of a solution?"

The conductor was a little confused: "Why, what happened?"

Izumi Jasmine raised her eyebrows and said angrily, "I've been hearing strange noises in my room!"

At this time, the door of the D carriage next door opened, and the sturdy Sumitomo Hiruka pushed the old lady Komino Natsue, who was sitting in a wheelchair, out. The two of them ignored Izumi Marie who was scolding the conductor and left directly.

The conductor was a little confused: "But I didn't hear any sound?"

The conductor's doubts were met with a harsher rebuke from the woman: "There was a strange noise just now. Do you think I'm lying?"

"No, there is no such thing..." The conductor retreated hurriedly and explained.

Just then, a "beep, beep" sound was heard in the room.

"Did you hear it this time? It's this sound!"

This time the conductor also heard it. Although the sound was not loud, it was indeed annoying. No wonder Izumi Jasmine looked so irritated.

"Indeed... I think someone might have left a phone or something in the room?"

As he was speaking, the conductor was about to walk into the room to check.

But Chubo immediately pushed him out the door: "Don't just come in, I can find it myself!"

"And what I want to say is why didn't anyone notice that someone left a phone in my room before departure? How do you work? Did you clean the room properly?"

"Well, I'm so sorry..."

It seems that it was indeed a mistake on their part that brought a bad experience to the passengers. The conductor had no way to defend himself and could only scratch his head and apologize.

At this time, the passenger in compartment C came out. Seeing the situation here, he asked in confusion, "What happened?"

Just at this moment, Yuya and his companions arrived at carriage No. 8.

Suzuki Sonoko glanced at the three people standing in the corridor, but didn't pay any attention to them and walked straight to carriage B.

"This is our room."

She walked up and knocked on the door, then shouted through it, "Hey, uncle, the puzzle you set has been solved, come out quickly."

Then no one in the room responded.

Suzuki Sonoko knocked on the door again: "Come out and explain to everyone quickly, why did the conductor say that the puzzle has not been announced yet?"

Still no one responded.

Suzuki Sonoko muttered, "Could he have fallen asleep?"

She reached out to open the door. It was not locked, but she could only open a small gap. The security chain inside was hung.

Suzuki Sonoko looked inside through the crack in the door and saw the fat man sitting on the sofa: "Uncle, don't sleep in our room! Open the door quickly and give the room back to us!"

Mao Lilan asked in confusion: "Sonoko, what's going on?"

Suzuki Sonoko complained: "The uncle fell asleep in there, and there was a lot of blood on his temple. He looked like he was dead..."

"Could it be that he knew the puzzle had been solved, so he made a new one?"

As soon as the words came out, the two and a half detectives present were stunned and their eyes instantly became serious.
