Chapter 928 A SOS Letter from the Freezer
Conan said: "So can anyone lend me your phone? I'm charging mine at home."
Genta and Ayumi didn't bring their footballs because they were worried about losing them while playing football.
Among the four people, only Mitsuhiko brought a cell phone.
However, his mobile phone had just issued a low-battery alarm and was now turned off.
Conan smiled confidently: "Don't worry, I will revive the battery right away."
"Resurrection?" The three little kids looked at Conan curiously with question marks on their faces.
Conan took the phone, removed the battery and held it in his hand, saying, "If you warm it up with your body temperature like this, the voltage will increase slightly and you can still use it for a while."
The three little kids immediately made sounds of surprise.
Conan smiled and said, "Although I can't hold on for too long, it's enough to convey key information to Officer Takagi."
After covering it for a while, Conan thought it was about time, so he put the battery back and called Takagi Shigeru.
However, the only sound coming from the microphone was a cold reminder that the other party had turned off the phone.
"No, it's turned off and I can't get through." Conan said a little annoyed. He never thought that Takagi Shigeru's phone would be turned off.
"No way?" The three little kids started to panic.
Conan comforted him and quickly dialed another number: "There is no other way. I can only call Yuya...brother and explain the situation."
Soon the call was connected, and Yuya's voice sounded in the microphone: "Hello? Mitsuhiko, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
"Yuya, it's me!" Conan said hastily. He didn't have time to explain in detail to Yuya, so he chose to get straight to the point. "It's like this..."
"Click!" The phone suddenly went offline.
"Hello?" The busy tone in his ear made Youye confused. He called back, but heard the phone was turned off.
"Why did you hang up without saying anything and turned off your phone? Are you kidding me?" Youye scratched his head and put down his phone in confusion.
Conan looked at the screen in confusion, pressed the power button twice, and scratched his head in pain: "It's out of power and turned off."
Mitsuhiko said quickly: "Then hurry up and warm up the battery like you did just now!"
Conan shook his head: "It's useless. The method just now can only be used once. Now the power is completely exhausted."
"What should we do then?!" Yuan Tai asked anxiously.
Conan thought for a few seconds, then said, "Take out the things you have and put them in front of me."
"I'll see if I can do something with that stuff."
Several people took out all their belongings.
Ayumi brought with her cotton swabs, handkerchiefs, tissues, and candies;
Yuan Tai has Band-Aids, chocolate bars, and anti-itch medicine for frostbite;
Mitsuhiko had a notebook and a ballpoint pen, a handkerchief, a wallet and taxi receipts on him.
Conan looked at what was in front of him, stroking his chin and thinking.
The three little kids also started chattering and suggested writing a message for help on notebook paper and throwing it out through the crack in the door.
But the question is whether someone will pick it up. Even if someone does, it is hard to say whether they will take it seriously and call the police. Moreover, if the note gets stuck in the door and is not thrown out, they will be doomed if the deliveryman finds it.
Just as Conan was thinking hard, the captain suddenly came over, hooked the candy on the ground with his claws, and started playing with it as if it were a ball.
Conan lowered his half-moon eyes, rubbed the captain's head speechlessly, and muttered: "If you hadn't run around, we wouldn't have been in trouble. You yourself are very leisurely."
Wait! Conan's hand suddenly stopped. He looked at the captain, and a bold idea flashed through his mind.
"I have an idea," Conan analyzed, pinching his chin, "The delivery truck's trajectory will pass through Go-chome next, which is also the captain's base."
"Every evening, this child would go to the Polo Cafe downstairs from his uncle's house for a meal."
Ayumi said happily: "I see, let the captain take our distress letter out, right?"
Mitsuhiko also understood: "As long as I put the note in the collar, Sister Xiaozi will find it!"
"No," Conan shook his head and said with a smile, "The person I'm asking for help is not Sister Xiaozi, but Mr. Amuro who works there!"
Mitsuhiko was stunned for a moment, and thought of the older brother detective, but he immediately thought of a question: "But, if the captain is caught when he runs out and the note is discovered..."
"It's okay," Conan said with a smile, "I'll make a secret code that they won't notice even if they see it!"
Conan picked up the cotton swab and Yuanta's anti-itch medicine, and explained as he operated: "This kind of receipt is printed by the reaction of an acidic drug. You only need to use the alkaline components in the anti-itch medicine to smear the printed words..."
Conan smeared the receipt with a cotton swab, and the words on it disappeared just as he said.
"Wow, that's awesome!" the three little brats exclaimed in amazement.
Conan smiled triumphantly and followed the same method to smear the black words, leaving the English word "corpse" on the receipt, which means dead body.
"Next, use the same method to change the credit card number and mobile phone number below into the train license plate number, and you can tell Mr. Amuro that there is a body hidden in this train."
Although he and Amuro Toru were not very familiar with each other, he knew the other party's identity as a public security officer, so it was not difficult for him to decipher this level of secret code.
As for when Toru Amuro asked later how he came up with this method, Conan just needed to put the blame on Yu - after all, his image in front of Toru Amuro was that of a little detective who liked reasoning and often followed Kogoro Mouri and Yuya to learn!
Soon, the receipt with the secret code was completed. Conan clipped the receipt in the captain's collar. Several children hid in the innermost corner, waiting for the next train stop.
After waiting for a while, the truck stopped.
Conan patted the captain's head and said softly, "I'll leave everything to you, Captain!"
The captain meowed, as if he understood what Conan said.
The door of the carriage opened, and the two deliverymen were surprised to see a cat in the carriage. Without thinking too much, they grabbed the captain's ribs and picked him up.
"Well, what's clipped on the collar? A receipt?" Just as the fat deliveryman was puzzled, the captain suddenly struggled desperately and grabbed the fat man's face with one claw.
"Damn it!" The fat man cursed angrily and wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by the thin deliveryman.
"Don't worry about the cat!" said the thin man, "Let's finish delivering the goods quickly. We have to go back to where we started!"
"Oh, okay." The fat man also knew that this matter was more important, so he ignored the captain.
Conan and the others were listening to the noise outside with their ears perked up. When they heard that the captain was caught, their hearts were in their throats. After hearing what the thin man said, they realized that the captain had successfully escaped and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Captain, well done!"
