Conan Moslin

Chapter 28 Train Mystery (7) - Questions

Kato Saeko's death was ruled an accident.

According to the coroner who heard their description, this was a mysterious phenomenon of spontaneous human combustion, and the specific circumstances that caused it were still unknown.

Spontaneous human combustion refers to a situation in which a person's body suddenly catches fire and burns rapidly without coming into contact with any fire source, and may even burn to ashes, but the surrounding flammable materials (including combustible items) will not be ignited.

But... could such a coincidence really happen?

Officer Sato expressed deep doubts about this.

After reporting back to the police station, she and Officer Takagi immediately asked for leave and rushed to the train that day. The train had been suspended after completing its work and had not yet started cleaning. She and Officer Takagi, who was brought along by her, carefully searched every corner of the train for clues. They saw a piece of chewing gum wrapped in paper in the ashtray of carriage No. 4, but that was not the point.

In the bathrooms of carriages 5 and 7, Officer Sato found two torn disguise masks.

The torn mask had some wrinkles, but you could still vaguely tell that they were two people's faces.

One is of Yumi Kuwahara and the other is of Officer Ishida.

Officer Takagi looked at the mask that was the same as the one worn by the officer he met in the afternoon and asked, "Officer Sa...Officer Sato? This mask is..."

Officer Sato looked at the two masks with a serious expression.

"Someone dressed as Officer Ishida is here to escort Kato with me."

"Their target is Kato."

The officer Ishida who set out with her was a fake, and the Yumi Kuwahara who talked to Kato on the train was also a fake.

While she and Conan went looking for the bomb, Kuwahara Yumi and Kato were alone for a while.

It should be that the two of them said something when they were alone, or even did something, which led to Kato's death.

Officer Sato put away the two masks and thought a lot.

Thinking about what Kato said when he asked her to find the bomb, she only admitted that she killed one person.

So, where did the information about injuries or murders in Kyoto come from?

She did not report it, but kept all her doubts in her heart, asked Officer Takagi to keep it confidential, and then continued to start new work.

……

A shocking incident of spontaneous human combustion occurred at Kyoto Station.

The incident hardly caused any ripples in people's lives and was quickly suppressed.

Those who knew the situation kept silent tacitly, while those who didn't knew the situation remained in the dark.

After getting off the train in Nagoya, Yuko Soragi removed her disguise, went to the food court for a happy stroll, and returned home with her bags. However, she received some "not so good" news from her parents. She thought about it and decided to "share" this with her best friend, so a few days later, she called Kurian back from Kyoto after she had just finished her work.

……

Gin received a report from Chianti and Cohen, who had ambushed in Kyoto in advance, that Kato Saeko had set herself on fire in Kyoto and was confirmed dead.

When he received the news, he was being chased by the police in Nagoya. Although he quickly got rid of them, he was still a little upset.

What annoyed him most was that the plan went out of control.

But Kasi... "self-immolated"? That's cruel enough.

I just can’t dig it out.

……

[Ming] welcomed the first new member given the name of tea in Conan's plot, codenamed Meizhan. He is now active in Kyoto, assisting the acting leader Mikami Teru who is preparing for the new magic show of [Bu Ye Hou] in Kyoto.

According to rumors within [Ming], Mei Zhan had killed a bad guy and was arrested for that. During the escort, he was spotted by the boss and pulled in.

According to gossip, the acting leader of [Bu Ye Hou], Long Zhong, and Mei Zhan, are from the same place.

……

Conan discovered that there was something strange in the way Mao Li Ran looked at him recently, so he could only take care of the child carefully and spend every day in fear.

At this point, the train incident was completely over.

……

a few days later.

In the mall, the children of the Junior Detective League are shopping for vegetables with Mao Lilan.

"Ah! Sister Xiaolan, the brother you were with last time was Kudo Shinichi!"

Mao Lilan blushed slightly and said shyly: "Well..."

"Wow! That's great! Ayumi is envious.

"That super famous high school detective!" This is Mitsuhiko.

"You can't be his girlfriend!" Yuan Tai said with a grin.

Mao Lilan grabbed a cabbage, blushed, and shouted at Conan almost at the same time: "No, that's not the case!"

There was a moment of silence, and everyone looked at Conan.

Mao Lilan has been looking for an opportunity to test the waters these days, but she didn't expect this to happen today.

At this moment, she looked at Conan with an oppressive look: "Why are you also..."

A drop of cold sweat dripped down Conan's forehead: "Ah... no no no no! This... this..."

Ayumi cheered at this time: "It must be your boyfriend!"

Mao Lilan's face turned red again: "In short, it is..."

"Hate it, please spare me!" She was so shy that she pulled the cabbage in her hand, leaving a layer of residual shadow.

Cabbage: Please spare me!

……

Kuroba Kuriyasu was in the villa of the Soraki family at this time.

In the villa, the exquisite and gorgeous crystal chandeliers have smooth and natural lines, the marble floor is covered with large carpets with intricate patterns, and the walls are hung with some beautifully framed paintings by famous artists.

On the sofa in the villa, Li An was chatting with Youko. Youko was mainly talking and she was listening.

Yuko put on a very regretful expression: "Sister Li An, it's such a pity that you didn't go to Nagoya a few days ago. You didn't get to eat so many delicious foods!"

Li An has been very busy these days. When she was in Kyoto, Mikami Teru complained to her for a long time about the magic troupe. The big and small things in the magic performances in Kyoto were so overwhelming.

He and other people need to discuss and consider many details, such as the transportation of magic props, the rehearsal cast, and the specific positioning. Moreover, it cannot be static. A magic show must have at least a little bit of novelty and new tricks.

As a semi-outsider, Mikami Teru simply didn't want to do it anymore.

Li An gave Mei Zhan, the new laborer, to him, but he was still forced to do hard labor for a few days. Because she was familiar with him.

Mikami Teru actually had some complaints about Mei Zhan, but... he also knew that he had no right to criticize her.

Just live in peace with each other.

Come to think of it, how dare Mikami, the acting leader, control her, the original leader.

Li An didn't say anything about Yuko's "showing off", so Yuko continued chatting on her own.

"I also bought some tempura rice balls, but you were not here. I didn't want to stay at Mu Ma Manor, which was so lonely, so I came back home. Speaking of which, Queshe was chasing after a silver-haired boy these days and had no time to pay attention to me. Although the boy is pretty, but... they are only in the first year of high school."

Xiaolan and the others are only in the second year of high school... Li An thought.
