Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 289: Hell Puppet Master

"Everyone, welcome to the magic train!"

The magic show began, and a magician in a bowler hat and black cape came to the dining car to give a speech, with a catfish beard and a goatee, looking rather funny. Look at ΔΔshuge WwnW. "kan→shu→ge. la

"I am Fumio the Mountain God, the head of the Fantasy Magic Troupe, known as the Gentleman Mountain God. Please enjoy the magic performance of our Fantasy Magic Troupe!"

The train continued to move, and members of the magic troupe appeared one after another, such as the mermaid princess performing water magic, the clown performing card magic, the psychic performing spiritual magic, and the short-haired girl performing marionettes at the beginning.

Even though the breakfast time had passed, the passengers who had eaten still stayed in the dining car to watch the performance with relish. Even though it was just some impromptu magic tricks, the audience still felt quite novel and applauded.

Gao Cheng took out the brochure of the fantasy magic troupe Shiguyuan's show and looked through it. He was more concerned about the threatening letter sent to the Metropolitan Police Department than the magic show. It seemed that it had something to do with this magic troupe.

The leader, Gentleman Shanshen, founded the Fantasy Magic Troupe five years ago and is good at performing flame magic.

The status of the magic troupe is second only to the head of the troupe is a blond long-haired young man, your noble son Yurama, who is good at performing magic tricks that allow the audience to stand on the stage and cooperate, and is world-renowned.

The beautiful woman performing water magic is called "Mermaid Xihai". It is said that she is the wife of the leader of the group, Gentleman Mountain God, and is good at water escape performances.

The clown performing card magic is called "Zuo Jinji the Clown".

The psychic performing spiritual magic is called Sakuraba, who is good at hypnosis and superpower magic.

Then there was Satomi Zamma, the intern magician of the magic troupe who appeared at the beginning, who was only 18 years old.

The last one is the manager of the magic troupe, a middle-aged young man wearing glasses, Gao Yuanyao...

"Gao Yuan, are you annoying?!" A table behind the dining car suddenly yelled and cursed, and a young man with long blonde hair said angrily, "You actually asked me to perform magic tricks for these people who are almost useless!"

Gao Cheng looked back and found that the long-haired young man happened to be the noble son Yurama in the brochure, and the one who was scolded was the manager of the magic troupe.

"I'm really counting on you, Mr. Yurama..." The manager Gao Yuanyao asked in a low voice.

"What's the matter with the head?" Yurama said dissatisfiedly,

"I just came out to say hello at the beginning, but I haven't shown up for an hour now!"

"This...well," Gao Yuanyao wiped his sweat, wondering, "I've been looking for him on the train since just now, but I can't find him anywhere...so now I can only rely on you, the second-in-command in the regiment, to end the matter It's..."

"Has it been more than an hour?" Gao Cheng looked at the time on his watch.

There is not much time left before the final stop, Shiguyuan. Is it really just a prank this time?

"Dididi!" Your son Yuliangma finished the performance reluctantly, and the mobile phone in Mumu's pocket suddenly rang.

"Huh?" Mu Mu reached out and took out a mobile phone in confusion, "Strange, this is not my mobile phone? When exactly..."

"Megure Police Department, give it to me."

Gao Cheng stood up, took the mobile phone from Mu Mu's hand and pressed the answer button, and heard the same weird voice that had been changed as last night.

"Welcome aboard the Magic Train! Have you had a good trip?"

"Are you the hell puppet master who sent the threatening letter? There should be a limit to pranks!" Gao Cheng said in a deep voice.

"Prank?" The other side of the phone laughed, "Hehe, it seems that you haven't figured out the situation yet. I actually want to inform you that the bomb I set on this train is about to explode!"

"bomb?!"

Gao Cheng's face tightened, and before he could say anything, the rose salad next to him suddenly exploded with a loud noise, and the rose petals scattered in all directions. Although the power was not too great, it still shocked everyone in the dining car.

"this is……"

"Do you know?" The other side of the phone smiled, "I'm serious, the next fireworks will be even bigger, hehehehe."

"Bastard!" Mu Mu regained consciousness and grabbed the phone and shouted, "Who the hell are you? What do you want to do?!"

"Listen clearly," the voice continued, "there is still 20 minutes before the next explosion. If you don't take some measures, the whole train will be blown up!"

Mumu clenched his fist tightly and hammered the table heavily: "Damn it! I hung up the phone! Takagi, hurry up and notify the train conductor! You must evacuate nearby!"

"I see!" Takagi nodded and hurried away.

After a while, the voice of the train conductor sounded: "Passengers, I am very sorry. Just now we received a bomb on the train... We will make an emergency stop at the nearby freight station in five minutes. Please prepare to get off as soon as possible!"

"Bomb?" A blond boy in the high-end sleeper car heard the broadcast and put down the book in his hand, and sighed helplessly, "Could it be that he met those plague detectives? Hey, hey, he said he hasn't seen each other for a long time..."

"hurry up!"

At the truck station, passengers rushed to get off the train with large and small bags.

"Please don't panic, come one by one!" The conductors were busy guiding the crowd by the door, "Slow down!"

"Slow what? What if you get caught in the explosion?"

Gao Cheng stood by the railway, frowning and watching the chaotic and noisy crowd.

Strange, since that so-called "Hell Puppet Master" installed a bomb on the train, why did he call to remind him, and also specifically stated the time of the explosion.

What is this for?

Also, the threatening letters sent to the Metropolitan Police Department are also very strange. Why did you call the police here?

Want to provoke the police?

Huiyuan stood beside him with his hands behind his back: "I'm afraid the bomb the other party said was not installed in the car. The prisoner seemed to observe our actions and reactions at a close distance before detonating the bomb. It is very likely that he was in the car."

"The prisoner is in the car?" Gao Cheng was stunned for a moment, "But why did he do this? Is it really a prank?"

"What should I do?" Gao Yuanyao anxiously looked around among the refugees, "Where did the head go..."

The people of the magic troupe got together and saw the manager Gao Yuanyao asked, "What's the matter, Mr. Gao Yuan?"

Gao Yuanyao said with a headache: "Ah, I can't find the head of the regiment anywhere, but this is the time..."

"The captain hasn't been found yet?"

Hearing this, Gao Cheng looked at the manager of the magic troupe who was sweating profusely.

"Have you looked for them on the train?"

"I found them all..."

"Hmph!" The long-haired young man Yurama said coldly, "I think he was scared by the bomb, so he slipped away alone?"

Gao Cheng looked at the train parked on the track with trembling eyes.

Although there is no evidence yet, goose bumps have already started to appear on his body, as if a cold air is blowing on his face.

This is his intuitive reaction, maybe the incident has already happened, just why...

"There are still five minutes before the explosion time, everyone has come out?" Mumu looked at the time solemnly, and said to Takagi, "Hurry up and contact the local police..."

"Please wait a moment, officer, I think the so-called bomb was just a false alarm." An annoying yet familiar voice suddenly sounded beside Gao Cheng.

The corners of his eyes are drooping, and he still has a gloomy look that hasn't woken up...

Gao Cheng frowned.

Junzai Shizu, I met this guy again.

"Oh? Isn't this Detective Kido?"

Junzai Shizuya walked over from the crowd, glanced over at Mumu and noticed Gaocheng next to him, and said with a chuckle, "When I was passing by Tokyo, I was thinking about whether to visit him, but I met him on the bus back to Hokkaido." .”

"I don't want to meet at all..." Gao Cheng muttered angrily.

"You are?" Mu Mu puzzled and looked at Shi Jin Runzai.

"I am a high school student detective, Shizu Junzai," Shizu turned to his eyes gracefully, "Just like what I said just now, the so-called bomb is just a farce, and the prisoner himself took this car, so what? Will you bomb yourself? Am I right, Detective Kido?"

Mu Mu asked Gao Cheng.

"It is indeed possible that the prisoner took this car." Gao Cheng looked directly at the train path, "but isn't everyone getting off the car now? Can't we say that there are really no bombs? Anyway, it's always good to be careful of."
