Chapter 31: Haibara Ai's Mysterious Black Railway Train (31)

Meanwhile, the atmosphere at the mystery show was a little tense. Mr. Noto asked with a questioning look on his face: "But Mr. Detective, isn't your reasoning a little too far-fetched?"

Noto continued, "If the light bulb of the room call light was not broken, the flight attendant would not come knocking on the door. It is not easy to add a chain to the door chain if you want to tamper with it."

Miss Izumi was also a little confused. She said, "The reason I asked the flight attendant to come here was because there was a watch in my room that someone forgot to take away. It suddenly rang."

Conan pretended to be Maori Kogoro and continued his analysis: "Mr. Flight Attendant, I remember you once said that the flight attendants seemed to be missing one piece of uniform."

The flight attendant nodded and replied, "Yes."

Conan smiled and continued, "I guess that uniform must have been stolen by Mr. Anton. If he had put on that uniform and joined the inspection before departure, he would have been able to process the door chain in advance and replace the light bulb of the call light outside Mr. Noto's door."

Conan continued his analysis: "He can also secretly put the watch in Miss Izumi's room. Then, when Miss Izumi complains to the flight attendant, he can take the opportunity to use the remote control and make the watch alarm ring to distract Miss Izumi and the others. In this way, Mr. Anton who sneaks into Room B can use the fishing line to open the door of Room C with the mirror installed without being discovered by the flight attendant."

He continued, "The mirrored door can conceal himself. After he puts the chain on the door of Room B, he can pretend to be coming out of his own room and close the door of Room C. Then he can find an opportunity to get close to Miss Izumi and the others. He can then successfully create a perfect escape trick where even if the flight attendant is in the corridor, there is no way for him to witness any suspicious people."

Conan went on to analyze: "Unfortunately, when Ms. Kozue and the maid passed through the corridor, they might have discovered the fishing line mechanism."

"However, because they happened to enter the tunnel, the dim environment in the carriage made them not pay too much attention to this detail." Conan continued.

"So, it's not that they don't want to be associated with this incident at all, but for some reason, they chose to pretend that they didn't see it at all."

Miss Izumi looked at Mr. Anton in confusion and asked, "But why did Mr. Anton give Mr. Murohashi to..." There was a hint of confusion and bewilderment in her tone.

Mr. Noto also frowned. Thinking back to the fire five years ago, he asked in confusion, "Aren't you guys rescued together?"

Mr. Anton nodded and replied, "Yes, I thought so two years ago." His voice was a little heavy, as if hiding some unknown secret.

“It wasn’t until I was in the auction market for paintings that I discovered that paintings that should have been burned were actually being sold,” Mr. Anton continued, his eyes revealing an indescribable emotion.

"What?!" Everyone exclaimed in unison, with shocked expressions on their faces.

Mr. Anton took a deep breath and continued, "I thought it was very strange, so I investigated the owner of the painting. The name I found out was Murohashi."
