The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

A man dressed in pitch black walked toward her and passed by Sera Masumi, his expression indifferent the whole time.

But Seriang's eyes widened and he stood there stunned.

This man seems to be...

Back in time four years ago, Masumi Sera, who was still in junior high school, accidentally met her eldest brother, Shuichi Akai, on the street.

Because Brother Xiu was probably still in the United States at that time, Seriang was very curious about why his eldest brother appeared in Japan, so he followed him behind.

As a result, when he was followed to the station platform, he was discovered as expected.

After Brother Xiu scolded him, he went to the ticket office to help him buy a return ticket.

Just when Sera stayed in place and couldn't move around, the man with Brother Xiu took out the guitar in his backpack and taught Sera how to play.

Of course, this process only lasted 10 minutes, and Seriang only learned to play some of the most basic scales.

But Seriang also remembered the gentle elder brother who walked with Brother Xiu at that time.

At that time, I remember that there was a dark-skinned blond man who also came to look for Brother Xiu and Brother Guitar...

Although he hadn't seen him for many years and his appearance had changed a lot compared to before, the man he passed by was definitely his guitar brother back then.

I didn't expect to meet you here...

Is Brother Xiu also on this train?

Thinking of this, Seriang suddenly turned around and looked in the direction where the man left.

But there was no man in the dining car behind him.

Sera frowned, and pushed forward slightly with one side of his body, trying to catch up.

But she suddenly remembered the look in the man's eyes just now, which was completely indifferent and ignored her.

Maybe you have completely forgotten me long ago...

Sera smiled, shook his head, put aside his childish thoughts, and turned towards his original destination.

…

Car No. 6, Room D.

In the room at this time, there were Dr. Agasa and all the members of the Young Detective Team except Conan, as well as Maori Ran and Suzuki Sonoko.

"Xiao Ai, your forehead seems a little hot?"

Mao Lilan squatted in front of Hui Yuan Ai, lifted the broken hair from his forehead, and put his forehead against Hui Yuan Ai's forehead.

Upon hearing this, Ayumi frowned and asked, "Xiao Ai, do you have a cold?"

Mitsuhiko also showed a worried expression, "Haihara-san, why don't you lie down and take a rest?"

At this time, Hui Yuan Ai was sitting on the seat, his eyes staring blankly, and his two small hands nervously holding together.

In her mind, all she could think of was the scene in the carriage just now.

Among those people, there are definitely members of the organization.

what to do?

If the organization wanted to catch me, they would have already sneaked into the train...

"I remember there is cold medicine in my backpack. Wait for me to take it out..."

Dr. Ali went back to look for Haibara Ai's small schoolbag and pulled out a plastic pill box.

Open the medicine box, and there are six compartments inside, which treat common diseases in life, such as colds, stomach bloating, vertigo, etc.

However, in one of the compartments, there is a medicine that can only be used by those who have become smaller.

Yuanzi looked at the dozens of pills in the pill box and sighed, "Why does this kid always have so many pills?"

Mao Lilan smiled and said, "It should be Dr. Chengshi who pretended to be..."

Just when everyone else's attention was focused on the medicine, Haiyuan Ai's cell phone in his trouser pocket suddenly vibrated.

Hui Yuan Ai trembled, took out his cell phone, and checked it.

This is a text message from an unknown number, the content is...

[Are you ready to wake up? ——Vermouth]

The moment she saw this text message, Hui Yuan Ai's pupils immediately widened and she was so nervous that she almost dropped her phone on the ground.

Vermouth is the codename of the woman in the organization.

Belmode!

Sure enough, it was her, she was on this train!

And it’s for me!

"Xiao Ai? You look so scary, what's wrong?"

"You take medicine..."

Mao Lilan brought a cold medicine to Huihara Ai, as well as a glass of warm water.

Haiyuan Ai sat on the chair and did not respond, but his eyes inadvertently glanced at the medicine in the medicine box.

If he was killed here, the other people in the carriage would definitely be silenced as well.

Also, if the identity of this body is completely exposed, the people who had a relationship with him in the past will definitely be silenced one by one.

No, you must not implicate other people...

Hui Yuan Ai made up his mind to leave this place and face his own destiny.

Originally, he was the one who deserved to die. If that magical drug hadn't accidentally shrunk his body, how would he have had the chance to enjoy this period of life?

Therefore, I should be satisfied.

Bye now……

Haihara Ai did not take the cold medicine from Mao Lilan, but went directly to get the medicine box placed on the table.

"I have to go to the toilet."

"Eh?" Mao Lilan was stunned, "Are you going to the toilet to take medicine?"

Haihara Ai didn't answer, but jumped off the seat and walked straight towards the door.

But just as she walked to the door, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Dude, Dude...

The short knock on the door is like the god of death ringing the bell, playing the final song of life.

Hui Yuan Ai was frightened and took half a step back, staring at the door in disbelief.

Why did it come so fast!

I haven't had time to stay away from everyone yet!

"Eh? Someone's coming..."

Mao Lilan stood up and was about to open the door, but before her hand touched the door handle, she was stopped by Haiyuan Ai with a sharp shout.

"Don't open the door!"

"Ah?" Mao Lilan looked down at Haiyuan Ai in confusion, "Xiao Ai, what's wrong?"

"In short, don't open the door!" Hui Yuan Ai repeated sharply.

"But……"

Mao Lilan and others in the room were even more confused, especially Dr. A Li.

"Xiao Ai, what's wrong with you?"

"There are enemies on the other side of the door..." Haiyuan Ai murmured at the corner of his mouth.

"What?"

Hui Yuan Ai's voice was as thin as a mosquito's, and the others didn't hear it clearly.

At this time, Haiyuan Ai's brain was thinking about how to save the lives of other people in the room.

Now Belmode and other members of the organization must be waiting at the door with guns in hand.

As long as the door is opened, everyone will die!

But if you don't open the door, the other party will force his way in sooner or later, and the result will be the same.

It's over, dead end...

Unless you plead with Belmode before the other party shoots, and ask the other party to let the others go.

Thinking of this, Hui Yuan Ai cleared his throat, hoping to remove the timidity in his voice as much as possible and increase his negotiating leverage with the other party.

There were other passengers and the detective in the car, and the other party probably didn't want to make too much noise.

Just when Haihara Ai had already formulated the negotiation policy in his heart, an urgent voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Hey, Xiaolan!"

"I'm Sera Majun, are you in there?"

Before Haiyuan Ai could stop him, Mao Lilan opened his mouth and answered, "We are inside..."

"Then open the door. I'm at the door now. I have important things to discuss with you."

"Yes, I'll open the door right now..."

Mao Lilan responded and reached out to open the door.

Hui Yuan Ai wanted to stop it, but it was too late. The door handle had been pressed down enough to be pulled open from the outside.

Oops!

Belmode can change her voice, so this must be the voice she conjured!

The gap in the door became wider and wider, and Hui Yuan Ai's pupils dilated in horror.

But when the door was completely opened, Sera Masumi stood alone at the door.

"Really, why did it take so long to open the door?"

"yes……"

Mao Lilan glanced at Haiyuan Ai at a lower position and did not choose to tell the reason.

Sera Masumi walked into the room, took out her mobile phone, and explained the purpose of her visit.

Hearing that they could contribute to solving the case, the three little ones sat in a row and watched the recorded running video with Sera's mobile phone.

While waiting, Seriang turned around and asked Mao Lilan why he didn't open the door just now.

Mao Lilan explained: "It's Xiao Ai who has a cold. We were feeding her medicine just now..."

"Do you have a cold?"

Sera was startled and looked down at Haihara Ai, who was also staring at him. He naturally reached out to touch his cousin's forehead.

But Hui Yuan Ai subconsciously took half a step back and looked at her with vigilant eyes.

This small movement was very harmful, and Seriang could only smile awkwardly and retract his hand.

At this time, Dr. Ali asked about the investigation progress of the case.

Masumi Sera replied: "Conan and Uncle Mouri are still investigating, but we can basically identify the culprit as a passenger in Car No. 8."

"oh."

Dr. A Li nodded clearly. As long as the scope of the murderer was determined, according to the past rhythm, it was only a matter of time to find the murderer.

Haiyuan Ai, who was lower down, heard about the progress of the investigation and became aware of the current situation.

Judging from the palpitating feeling just now, Belmode must be someone in Car No. 8.

The case is still under investigation and she can't get away for the time being, so she can only send herself a warning via text message.

In other words, as long as you take the initiative to leave everyone before the investigation of the case is completed.

Hui Yuan Ai looked around at everyone in the room, but her mood of saying goodbye was extremely heavy.

Never before have I looked forward to Conan taking a longer time to solve the case...

longer...

…

In Car No. 8, Kogoro Mouri and Conan are waiting for Masumi Sera to bring back the identification of the three little ones.

Although the three little ones only saw their backs and cannot be used as decisive evidence, they can also provide reference for the investigation of the case.

At this time, news came from the conductor.

Originally, a murder had occurred, and the train should have stopped at the nearest station for the police to investigate.

However, due to Suzuki Jirokichi's operation, the train stopped at Nagoya Station instead. He wanted to see for himself what the murderer who defiled the Suzuki train looked like.

Conan drooped his eyelids and complained helplessly: How much power does that uncle have?

"Since we still have a lot of time, why don't we recreate the scene of the train passing through the tunnel?"

"Maybe we can find something..."

Mouri Kogoro turned to look at Noto who was speaking. Although he was reluctant to accept a suspect's proposal, he still said: "That's okay."

So, everyone went back to their rooms and rehearsed the incident from the beginning.

First, the call bell sounded in the corridor. The conductor subconsciously judged that it was the call bell pressed by Mr. Noto in Room A...

Conan held his chin up, looking at Noto who was talking to the conductor at the door, and sorting out his thoughts in his mind.

"It was probably at this time that the door of Room B opened, and Mr. Murohashi stuck his head out, still holding a phone in his hand..."

"At that time, the train was in the tunnel, and the corridor was dim, but I should have seen it right."

Qin Zhibo, who was demonstrating the process, seemed to be adding details of the process, but in fact he was reminding Conan.

After hearing this, Conan's mind suddenly lit up and realized something.

Yes!

The train was in the tunnel at that time, and the deceased was on the phone, so the signal must be bad.

At this time, the deceased opened the door to meet the person he was talking to directly.

And the person who was talking to the deceased at that time was the murderer!

Conan hurried to the door of Room B, opened the door to 90 degrees, and then looked at it from the side.

Sure enough...

The width of this door can almost cover the corridor. As long as the criminal enters Room B when the deceased opens the door, the conductor and Mr. Noto on the other side will not be able to see it.

In this way, the murderer can only be someone in Room C, D, or E.

But who is it?

And why did the suspicious figure that the conductor saw at the end appear at the head of the carriage?

Qin Zhibo saw Conan's expression suddenly relaxed for a moment, and knew that the boy understood his hint.

The next step is to figure out how the murderer left Room B without anyone noticing.

At this time, Miss Izumi in Room E pressed the call bell, and the conductor hurried over to deal with it.

The two sides entangled for half a minute because of the strange noise. At this time, Anton in Room C came out of the room to check.

"At this time, Xiaolan and I just happened to walk past the corner of the corridor!"

Conan also told his own trajectory and added the last link.

However, Maori Kogoro watched the whole process and still didn't understand what was going on.

Qin Zhibo, who was standing at the door, heard Conan's voice and smiled knowingly.

He already knew who the murderer was.

Originally, the murderer could only be one of Izumi or Anton.

And Izumi was talking to the conductor in Room E at the time, so the murderer was obviously Anton.

He used some kind of trick to walk out of Room B without being noticed, and also created a false figure to frame himself.

He definitely did not stick his head out of Room A at that time, but the conductor saw a suspicious figure at his distance.

In addition, the corridor was very dark at that time, which should be a good opportunity to use "that"...

"Okay, everyone come out."

At this time, Maori Kogoro called everyone out in the corridor.

All the suspects gathered again.

But before Maori Kogoro could start to summarize what happened just now, Qin Zhibo took the lead and said.

"The answer is obvious."

"The murderer entered the room from the other side of the corridor while Mr. Murohashi opened the door, so the murderer can only be someone from Rooms C, D, or E."

"But Miss Izumi in Room E quickly pressed the call bell and talked to the conductor at the door of Room E, so the murderer couldn't be Miss Izumi."

"And Ms. Komi and her maid in Room D never left the room from beginning to end, so the possibility of the two of them committing the crime together is relatively small..."

"So the murderer can only be you, Mr. Anton."
