Car No. 5.

Conan, Dr. Agasa, Kogoro Mori, Sonoko, and the three little ones were all crowded together in Sera Masumi's car.

Although this train focuses on luxury, each room is relatively spacious and even has a separate sink and mirror in the corner.

But with so many people crammed into the room at once, it was still a bit crowded.

"Why hasn't Sister Xiaolan come back yet?"

"And Xiao Ai..."

The three little ones drooped their heads, worried about Haihara Ai and Mao Lilan who had not returned to the team for a long time.

Conan also already knew that Mao Lilan returned to the burning carriage in order to find Haihara Ai.

In fact, ever since the incident occurred in Car No. 8, he felt that something was wrong with Haihara Ai's reaction. He always lowered his head in a daze, but his eyes widened.

And this fire also started inexplicably.

The source of the fire should be Room D of Car No. 8, which is the room where the old lady in the wheelchair and the maid lived.

But according to other people's descriptions, they were all survivors who escaped from the fire five years ago and should be more cautious about fires.

However, those two people still set the room on fire...

And the strange thing is that the fire started a little too fast. It was obviously the D room on fire, but the luggage compartment also suddenly caught fire.

The two places are obviously far apart, so there should be no reason for them to catch fire at the same time.

There was also smoke coming out of Car No. 7 suddenly, which was really unreasonable.

At this moment, Mouri Kogoro couldn't sit still anymore, stood up from his seat, opened the door and walked out.

When Conan saw it, he quickly stopped and asked, "Uncle, where are you going?"

Mouri Kogoro lowered his head and replied: "I'm going to find Xiaolan."

Conan: "I'll go too..."

Looking at Conan's extremely determined eyes, Mouri Kogoro was silent for two seconds and did not answer, but he also acquiesced to Conan to follow him.

The two left the room, and the seating position in the room became much more relaxed.

At this time, Sonoko glanced at the room and asked Sera: "Sera, are you the only one in this room?"

"No." Sera Masumi shook her head, "There was another passenger with me, but I don't know where she went now..."

"Perhaps he ran to a car farther forward to take refuge?"

…

Conan and Mouri Kogoro quickly passed through the connection of Car No. 5 and arrived at Car No. 6.

The corridor was still filled with smoke, but it was much less than at the beginning.

Through the thin smoke, the two did not see any ignition point.

The two quickly walked through the corridor and came to the conductor's seat at the rear of Car No. 6.

At this time, Conan, who had sharp eyes, saw something under the seat.

When he lay down and picked it up, he discovered that it was a silver jet tank. There was a weak gossamer-like smoke slowly spraying out from the nozzle of the tank.

"This is……"

Mouri Kogoro next to him also opened his eyes in surprise when he saw the gas tank that Conan picked up.

Obviously, the smoke that seemed to be caused by a fire in the car was actually ejected by this thing.

boom!

Suddenly, a violent explosion came from the rear of the carriage.

Mouri Kogoro and Conan were so shaken that they staggered and subconsciously reached out to hold on to the wall next to them to prevent them from falling to the ground.

"What is this sound?"

Looking in the direction of the rear of the car, Mouri Kogoro let out a confused sound.

Without saying a word, Conan dropped the gas tank in his hand and ran toward the rear of the train.

Xiaolan!

Xiaolan!

Conan gritted his teeth and called his childhood sweetheart's name countless times in his heart.

But before he could reach the back of the car, he found Mao Lilan at the connection between carriages 6 and 7.

I saw Mao Lilan sitting in a wheelchair, her body weakly leaning on the back of the wheelchair, her head tilted to one side, and her eyes closed tightly.

"Xiaolan!"

Conan hurriedly ran forward, and Mouri Kogoro, who followed from behind, also hurriedly checked on his daughter's condition.

I felt my pulse and found that it was relatively stable.

"She must have fainted..."

"Xiaolan!"

"Xiaolan!"

Mouri Kogoro shook Maori Lan's shoulders vigorously, trying to wake his daughter up.

And Conan looked at the wheelchair Mao Lilan was sitting in with some confusion, recalling that only the old lady with mobility difficulties in Car No. 8 had a wheelchair on this train.

If this wheelchair belongs to the old lady, where did the old lady go?

Conan looked around vigilantly, only to find several bullet holes scattered on the wall of the carriage next to him.

The locations of bullet holes are relatively scattered.

Moreover, there were bullet holes in the walls of the carriages on the left and right sides, indicating that there had just been a shootout where two people shot at each other.

Who were the two sides in the shootout?

"Dad, dad..."

Under Mouri Kogoro's continuous shaking, Maori Lan finally slowly opened her eyelids and woke up.

Mouri Kogoro showed a happy expression and asked concernedly: "Xiaolan, how are you?"

"I……"

Mao Lilan covered her head and recalled what had just happened.

I originally wanted to help the old lady take out the wheel that was stuck in the gap, but why did I suddenly faint?

besides……

"Xiao Ai!"

"Where is Xiao Ai?"

At this moment, Mao Lilan remembered the person she wanted to rescue in the first place, suddenly became energetic, and looked around nervously.

Mouri Kogoro looked around in confusion, "There is no one else here, only you..."

Just when Mao Lilan said she was going to find Xiao Ai, Conan took the initiative and said, "Sister Xiao Lan, please take a rest first, and I'll go find Haiyuan classmate."

"You? But..." Mao Lilan looked worried.

Conan smiled and comforted him: "It doesn't matter. The fire has been put out now. She should be hiding in a certain carriage..."

Conan ignored Mao Lilan's worried eyes, turned around and continued walking towards the car.

But at the same time, he also lifted the cover of the anesthesia needle watch on his wrist, ready to launch it at any time.

There was no one in the carriage that we passed just now, which meant that at least one of the people who had just engaged in the shootout was hiding in the next carriage.

Although I don’t know who fired the gun in the carriage, I will first use an anesthetic needle to disable one of them.

Because the fire was notified very urgently, all the doors of the carriage rooms were not locked in time and could be pushed open directly from the outside.

Room A, no one.

Room B, no one.

Room C...

Conan held the anesthesia needle watch and began to check the rooms in the carriage.

However, after checking the six rooms in Car No. 7, no one was found.

What's going on?

Could it be that he has escaped to Car No. 8?

Conan continued to carry the anesthesia needle and watch to Car No. 8.

Car No. 8 is a first-class car, and the cabin is wider than that of ordinary cars, so there are only 5 rooms in one car.

Conan still checked room by room, starting with room A on the outermost side.
