Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World
Chapter 198 The Mystery of the World: The Thriller of the Maglev Train
Conan's watch was still lighting up, "We have to find President Alan as soon as possible."
The brother and sister are still looking for traces.
Masumi Sera said seriously, "Conan, that was a gunshot just now. And it was a bolt-action rifle. Who were you with and what were you doing?"
"Don't worry, the person on the other end of the phone is one of our own."
Kudo Yuki stepped forward and patted Sera Masumi on the shoulder, saying earnestly: "Masumi, sometimes you have to know what you should and shouldn't do. You will know what you should know one day."
Shira Masumi looked confused: "Sister Xue, what do you mean by that?"
"Zhenchun, the most important thing now is to find President Alan."
Akai Shuichi's voice came: "It's up to you from now on, little brother."
“I also have a request, send me the cell phone numbers of all the participants.”
"no problem."
The three continued to look for people following the green mark.
Conan put away his watch, frowning slightly, "It ends here."
Masumi Sera lowered his body and looked at the ground. "Indeed."
Kudo Yuki walked to a closed door and said solemnly: "Step back, I'm going to open the door." She held the door handle with both hands.
After the door was opened, the suitcase moved slightly. Just as Sera Masumi was about to speak, Kudo Yuki stopped her: "Conan, unzip the suitcase."
Conan walked quickly forward and unzipped his pants, revealing the tied-up President Alan.
Sera Masumi quickly helped him up, "Are you okay? He is conscious after all."
Kudo Yuki tore off the tape on his mouth and the rope on his hands.
President Alan looked confused: "Where am I?"
Kudo Yuki smiled and explained: "In the maglev train."
"How did you find me?"
Kudo Yuki picked up the nutritional drink on the ground and shook it: "Thanks to you for knocking over this bottle of drink."
Conan was holding up Chairman Alan's pen, "As expected of the former FBI Director."
This scene was broadcast live by the surveillance cameras on the vacuum superconducting maglev train and seen by the crowds watching the opening ceremony on other trains.
Conan held up President Alan's pen and handed it to him with a smile: "As expected of the former FBI director."
Conan used the Junior Detective League's communicator to contact Huihara Ai and told everyone the truth: "Everyone listen to me. When President Alan disappeared, he was kidnapped together with President John."
Sera Masumi's eyes revealed his contemplation of the case: "Then, both of them were stuffed into the criminal's car."
Maori Kogoro's slightly anxious voice came from the communicator, "Then did Mr. Alan see what the criminal looks like?"
"Unfortunately, he didn't see it. However, we already know who the criminal is."
Mao Lilan's voice was also a little anxious, but she still pretended not to know and asked: "'We', Conan also knows?"
Conan then remembered that there was a camera here, so he put the phone to his ear in a pretentious manner, with a sly smile on his face, "No, it's Shinichi who knows the criminal."
Maori Kogoro's voice calmed down a little: "So, who is the criminal?"
Kudo Yuki smiled and looked at Conan, "Before revealing the real culprit, Shinichi would like to ask Conan to confirm one thing."
Then, Conan took advantage of the angle where the camera couldn't see the content of the phone, took out his phone and called the FBI. Instantly, the phones of everyone on the train list started ringing, echoing in the carriage.
However, no one answered any of the calls. Everyone was puzzled, with frowns and full of suspicion.
Mao Lilan's eyes lit up, as if she suddenly understood something, "Could it be that everyone's cell phone is ringing?"
Masumi Sera quickly checked everyone's cell phones, "My cell phones, Conan's, and Sister Xue's are all ringing."
Conan also looked around, "President Alan's phone also rang. However, only one person's phone didn't ring."
On the vacuum superconducting maglev train, several people heard footsteps approaching slowly. Conan turned around and looked towards the door, "Ms. Shirahato Maiko."
Kudo Yuki and the others stood up, connected their phones to the call interface, and refused to listen one by one in front of the camera.
Masumi Sera looked at Shirahato Maiko who came in with a scrutinizing look in her eyes: "It seems that your phone didn't ring."
"Because my phone ran out of battery."
Conan took a step forward, holding his phone in his hand. "No, your phone should still have power. I think it must be because of the MRI machine that caused the electronics to malfunction."
Shirahato Maiko looked at her cell phone and bit her lip.
Kudo Yuki directly announced the answer: "In other words, the person who caused the quench was you, Ms. Shirahato."
Several people heard the sighs of the crowd coming from the communicator. Shiraha Maiko curled her lips and smiled, "Just because my phone happened to have a problem, are you going to put the blame on me?"
Masumi Sera stuffed his phone into his pocket, crossed his arms over his chest, and said in a tough tone, "So what you're saying is that it was just a coincidence that you got on this maglev train?"
Conan raised the key point of the question: "The most important thing is, Shirahato Maiko, your name is the same as the katakana of Ishihara Makoto, the criminal in the shooting case 15 years ago. This shouldn't be a coincidence, right?"
After hearing this, Shirahato Maiko lowered her head so that no one could see her facial expression. Her body trembled slightly, as if she was trying hard to suppress her inner emotions.
Conan put his phone in his pocket and put his hands behind his back. "Your father insisted on his innocence but died in the end. You can't give up his name. Am I right?"
Kudo Yuki noticed something was wrong, and behind Conan, she patted his little hands gently, her eyes full of vigilance.
Conan turned on the sight of his watch and placed his finger lightly on the button, preparing himself in advance.
Shirahato Maiko slowly raised her head, her face became hideous and distorted, she took a few steps forward, holding the gun tightly with both hands, and roared: "Alan!"
Sera Masumi immediately stood in front of President Alan, and President Alan's eyes fell on the gun in her hand. "This gun."
Shirahato Maiko pointed her gun at President Alan. "I'm so glad you still remember it. Yes, it's the same model as the murder weapon 15 years ago."
In order to buy time, Conan repeated what he had said before. "The criminal, your father, claimed he was innocent 15 years ago."
Shirahato Maiko approached slowly with a gun in hand, "But the FBI still arrested my father. Do you remember the first victim of that case 15 years ago?"
Sera Masumi quietly pulled Chairman Alan behind him again, "As I recall, he was a senior executive of a Japanese pastry company."
"My father was with me when the senior executive of the local company was kidnapped."
"He has an alibi."
"At that time, I also said so in my testimony to the FBI, but my father was still arrested. He cried out for justice in prison until his death. My mother came to the island country, but soon passed away due to mental and physical exhaustion."
"Is that why you've always hated the FBI?"
"So I listened to the USMS's advice and changed my name."
Conan narrowed his eyes slightly, "It's the witness protection program in the judicial transaction."
"You know a lot, kid. Yes, the USMS people didn't know the island country's katakana, so they didn't realize that I used my father's name. Then, seven years ago, God was finally on my side."
"Seven years ago, this country was awarded the right to host this World Games."
"That's right. And this man also became the president of the World Sports Association that year. This must be God's will."
Kudo Yuki's eyes darkened slightly: "Is that why you got into the Capital World Sports Association?"
"Yes, that's why I know that this man will take the maglev train, the 'Capital Bullet.'" A smug smile appeared on Shirahato Maiko's face.
"Is that why you planned the same case as 15 years ago?"
"I did this to remind this man of his sins."
Sera Masumi saw Shirahato Maiko's feet move forward again, and she also moved calmly, "But you didn't kill anyone else before."
Bai Jiu Maiko's emotions were getting out of control. "That's right, I only need to kill him, so get out of my way."
President Alan put his hand on Sera Masumi's shoulder and patted her gently, motioning her to move aside. He then slowly stood opposite the gun with a calm expression.
Shirahato Maiko's eyes were filled with the pleasure of revenge, and her pupils dilated with excitement: "I originally wanted to wait until this 'Capital Bullet' arrived at the terminal before taking this man's life. However, thanks to you, the plan has changed, and I want his life now."
Just as Maiko Shiraha was about to pull the trigger, Masumi Sera took the lead and kicked over, followed by Conan, who shot out an anesthetic needle.
But plans cannot keep up with changes. The train suddenly shook twice. The strong inertia made Kudo Yuki and others unable to keep balance, and they fell to the ground one after another.
Shirahato Maiko waved her pistol in the air and unexpectedly blocked the anesthetic needle.
Conan's glasses fell to the side.
Kudo Yuki crawled over, picked up the glasses and put them on Conan.
However, President Alan's pen rolled to the back of Shirahato Maiko.
Conan's communicator also fell into Kudo Yuki's hands.
Several people held the place where they were hit, with painful expressions on their faces, and slowly stood up.
Shirahato Maiko's smile became more and more crazy, with a look of joy in her eyes as she felt that her revenge was about to come. "It seems that God is still on my side."
She raised the gun and aimed it at President Alan again, her finger firmly on the trigger.
Conan was a little anxious and shouted loudly: "Stop it now."
President Alan turned to face Shirahato Maiko and said, "Did you just say that as long as I die, it will be fine?"
"That's right, I only need to kill you."
"Okay then." President Alan pointed to his heart and said, "Shoot here."
Sera Masumi immediately tried to stop him, "Mr. Mackenzie."
Alan Mackenzie patted his chest and said, "Here, shoot here. Shoot from a higher position, so that even if the bullet passes through my body, it will only hit the floor."
The people on the other side of the communicator could only watch and listen and could do nothing.
Kudo Yuki walked to the train wall and gently stroked it, feeling its material. "In order to travel at high speeds, the maglev train uses ultra-lightweight materials."
Sera Masumi looked around carefully and said, "Indeed, if a bullet penetrates the wall or ceiling and endangers the movement of the train, everyone present will be in danger.
Although the floor is strong enough, it is easy to be penetrated by a very close-range shot. So we have to shoot at the farthest distance that the bullet can penetrate the left chest. "
Conan interrupted: "So you have to shoot me from as high a position as possible, at the farthest distance that the bullet can hit my left chest. That's what Mr. Alan said."
Bai Jiu Maiko gritted her teeth and roared, "Shut up and stop talking nonsense."
Conan walked forward slowly, "Ms. Baijiu, I think you should know that Mr. Alan was once a shooting athlete, and Gu is also a shooting expert who participated in world experience competitions."
Kudo Yuki heard Mao Lilan's panicked and frightened voice: "Conan."
President Alan faced the gun directly and said, "Here, aim here."
Baijiu Maiko hesitated, her eyes flickering back and forth, and she was struggling inside.
However, Kudo Yuki understood President Alan's intention. She moved slightly, her footsteps so light that there was no sound at all, while Shirahato Maiko was thinking about what decision to make.
President Alan ordered: "A little higher."
Shirahagu Maiko did as she was told.
"Stand back a little, stand back some more, and raise your arms."
Kudo Yuki gave Conan and Sera Masumi a look, indicating that they should listen to her and stop it together.
Conan's eyes fell on the curtains and he already had a plan in mind. Sera Masumi also looked at the operating lever behind the suitcase and secretly gathered his strength.
Kudo Yuki was predicting in her mind the time period when Akaku Shuichi's bullet would arrive.
"Stand back one step further."
Kudo Yuki gave the two of them a look, and the three of them started to act at the same time.
Conan suddenly pulled the curtain and ran towards Shirahato Maiko.
Masumi Sera quickly pulled down the operating lever.
The moment Shirahato Maiko was tripped, Kudo Yuki flashed and pulled President Alan aside.
Then, Shuichi Akai's bullet pierced through Maiko Shirahato's heart, and the powerful impact caused her body to tremble violently.
The curtains were instantly covered with Shiraha Maiko's blood, which was shocking to see.
Due to the inertia of the train, the curtains were freed from their clips. Conan fell to the ground and let go of the curtains in his hands.
Shiraha Maiko fell to the ground, blood gushing out, and she soon fell into a coma.
Kudo Yuki and President Alan watched as bullets pierced through the glass behind them. The sound of the glass breaking was crisp and sharp, and a lot of glass shards fell down.
Screams of many people seeing this scene were heard over the communicator.
Sera Masumi turned around and looked at the fallen Shirahato Maiko, her face filled with shock: "Who was it? Who shot her?"
At the same time, in Yokohama Machida, Cameron was driving, Judy and James were sitting in the car, staring at the live broadcast on the screen, and they all saw this scene.
Cameron vowed with certainty: "The person who fired the shot must be Mr. Akai."
Judy was puzzled: "But shouldn't Shuichi still be in Nagoya? The maglev train has just arrived near Yamanashi. It's impossible to snipe successfully at this distance."
Cameron held the steering wheel with both hands. "That's why Mr. Akai ordered special bullets. They are not made of iron, but silver. Silver bullets will not be attracted by the electromagnets embedded in the side walls of the magnetic levitation track.
The electromagnetic induction effect between electromagnets can not only make the car body float, but also make the bullet float on the track, flying at a speed of 1000 kilometers per hour. After entering the vacuum tunnel, it is almost unaffected by gravity and air resistance, and chases behind the maglev train at a stable speed.
At this time, if the maglev train suddenly slows down and the deceleration lasts for a long time, the silver bullet will penetrate the ultra-lightweight body of the maglev train during the deceleration period.
At this moment, as long as the prisoner's vital parts are in the pre-calculated position, the sniper attack will be successful."
Judy listened carefully to Cameron's analysis, stroking her chin in thought: "This requires the cooperation of someone in the car. Could it be that those two people are..."
"Yes, it's Kudo Yuki and Edogawa Conan."
