338. Steel Forest
"Urgent notice: There is a fire accident in the No. 8 carriage of this train. For safety reasons, passengers from No. 7 and No. 6 are asked to go to the front carriage as soon as possible."
In the corridor, Chen Xing suddenly stopped and rubbed his eyebrows that were slightly stinging due to excessive use perception. After listening to the radio, he immediately turned back to cars No. 7 and No. 8.
He thought Haibara Ai was walking forward, so he ignored the car behind him, but intuition, the current fire accident was by no means accidental.
Thick smoke filled the entire carriage, and the corridor was full of panic and hurrying people. The conductor was trying to maintain order, and the sound was noisy.
Chen Xing went against the crowded crowd, the smoke was very big, gradually blurring his vision, but his perception became clearer in the stinging pain, and the familiar aura was right in front of him.
The closed room door seemed to have no concerns about the thick smoke and fire alarm notices outside, and even the low cough sounded very light.
Chen Xing's hand was about to touch the door handle, but hesitated to the sound of coughing that he was desperately suppressing. He hesitated to withdraw his hand and just opened the window in the corridor.
The thick smoke blew away, and he stood quietly in the wind.
After a while, a slight sound of footsteps appeared and stopped when I saw him.
As if unexpectedly, Subaru Okayama held the mirror frame, "Mr. Tuoka, what are you doing here?"
When Chen Xing saw him, he knew it. The other party obviously would not tell Haibara Ai's true identity. When he thought of the person who had been in the same room with the other party, it was self-evident whose plans and joint efforts were all self-evident.
This was the first time Conan hid it from him, especially about the safety of Haibara.
"I'm tired of walking, so I'll have some breath here." Chen Xing looked over and chuckled softly.
Subaru Otsuya looked at him and nodded for a while, "Just said on the radio that there was a fire and the smoke was so big, so it would be better to go to the front carriage to take refuge as soon as possible."
Chen Xing was silent for a moment and said 'Okay'.
He was not fast, but he soon passed Okayama Subaru who was standing in the corridor and left the train.
The sound of the door behind him being carefully opened was not hidden from him, but even when she looked at him secretly, she did not stop him.
Chen Xing understood that the seeds of doubt had been planted at the beginning of their first meeting. The trust they experienced together was to fill up the soil, but after a rain, the seeds would break out of the soil.
There may be mud, but it is waiting to thrive into towering trees from now on.
What Haibara Ai believed was not Okayama Subaru, but Conan.
Chen Xing walked away slowly, and the smoke behind him wrapped around him and walked around him, rolling up a illusion and innocence.
He turned around, and even though he could no longer see his back, he still stopped for a long time.
...
boom!
A violent explosion came from the bridge that had just passed by the train, and fire was clearly visible even during the day, as well as the rolling black smoke.
The people in the shelter carriage in front rushed to the window, looked out, and whispered.
"What happened?" Yuanzi worried, and she looked around, obviously looking for the familiar figure.
"It seems that somewhere exploded." Ran Maori said inconclusively.
Beside him, Kogoro Mouri who rushed over rubbed his neck and felt a little dizzy.
--Just before the fire alarm appeared, the "Sleeping Kogoro" was launched again, revealing the truth about the murder in the secret room, and finding out the murderer.
The three little ones also lay on the window, chattering and discussing the explosion.
"Conan, what do you think it's because of it?" Ayumi asked.
"That's a piece of car, right? Maybe it's an operational error." Conan said.
"No, how could the train conductor make such a mistake?" Yuanzi put on her hips, "And this is the express train of the Suzuki Consortium!"
"Yes~" Conan scratched his head and smiled.
But I felt relaxed because everything was developing according to his script.
Until the train stopped at a nearby station due to a sudden fall of the car and an explosion, they did not wait for Chen Xing to come.
At that time, in the carriage.
Chen Xing leaned against the window and looked at the wilderness flying past the window.
Amuro, who was rushing, saw him when he raised his eyes. He was stunned at first, and immediately took off his gloves behind him.
"Boss?" He made a surprised expression and walked over with a smile as usual, "Why are you here? The smoke is choking."
As he said that, he deliberately covered his mouth and coughed a few times.
In fact, the thick smoke is just a trick created by the mechanism, and after the chemical reaction is over, it gradually dissipates with ventilation.
There was only a faint smoke in the corridor, which was lingering in the flowing wind.
Seeing that Chen Xing didn't say anything, Anmuru's eyes became dark and stood by the window two steps away from him, looking out.
"It's really nice to be in the wild." He chuckled, "The scenery is beautiful and the air is fresh, not like Tokyo. What do you think, boss?"
Chen Xing looked over, "What happened to the explosion just now?"
Toru Amuro was stunned, almost thinking that his identity had been exposed, and the other party was questioning him.
But the expression of the person in front of him was calm, and it was impossible to see the slightest.
"I don't know." Toru Amuro had an excuse, but somehow he explained to himself, "It was a cargo compartment that was derailed, and there might be some contraband hidden inside."
"Is anyone?" Chen Xing asked.
Anmuro moved his lower lip before laughing: "How is that possible? That's the cargo compartment."
Of course, someone. He thought to himself that the explosives in the half-section of the cargo compartment, absinthe, was determined to make Shirley die, and the result was fulfilling her wish.
Chen Xing didn't know these, but he could guess that the explosives must have been made by the other party or Belmode.
"It should be explosives," he said.
"Huh?" Toru Amuro said immediately: "To be honest, I doubt it too, but this train is owned by Suzuki Consortium after all..."
He didn't pretend to be stupid, because from what he showed before, it would be strange if he couldn't recognize the power of the explosion as explosive.
"Who do you think it would be?" His reaction was a little beyond his expectations.
"I don't know." Amuro shook his head.
Chen Xing didn't say anything anymore.
One is trying to expose the other party’s identity, while the other is thinking about what actions the other party will take if his identity has been exposed.
After all, in Toru Amuro's heart, he had already determined that there was a certain relationship between Cognac and Shirley.
Chen Xing was hesitant because he felt that Amuro Toru was not bad, and there must be some reason to do all this deliberately.
But because the target was Shiho Miyao Miyao, he could not ignore it.
"It seems like the car is going to stop." While pondering, he heard the people around him say.
The train's speed gradually slowed down and finally stopped at the nearby station, and there were already police on the platform.
"Let's go down quickly, too?" Amuro Toru greeted.
Chen Xing said 'yes'.
Looking at his back, for no reason, Amuro felt inexplicably confused.
