"Where are your accomplices?"
"Don't worry, we'll find it soon!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Conan hurriedly comforted him:
"We got separated at the beginning, so it will take some time to find him. How about this, you two help me look for him!"
"He is 174cm tall, very thin, weighs about 100kg, has a very thin finger, and is probably left-handed..."
Conan narrated the information about Jack the Ripper and mobilized the security guards to search for him together.
The conductor didn't think too much about it. According to common sense, he would just turn a blind eye to a person who evaded the fare, but...
Today's trains are different. The passengers are all noble lords. If a thief steals something, the fault will all fall on him.
The key is...
This matter cannot be made public, so as not to disturb the leisure and elegance of the noble gentlemen.
To be on the safe side, everyone entered the restaurant together, pretending to pass by, and quietly checked the passengers sitting in the restaurant.
There were many passengers in the restaurant. All of the twenty or so seats were occupied. The waiter, with a white towel on his arm, was moving swiftly back and forth beside the seats. The violinist was playing in the middle. The melodious music was ethereal and beautiful, and everyone's face was filled with warm smiles.
"Pay more attention to lone passengers. When Jack the Ripper got on the bus, he was the only one there!"
Conan whispered a reminder to Kidd and the other two, his big eyes spinning around like a top, accurately scanning each person's fingers.
Here...
Conan used the rule that made Kogoro Mori famous: the process of elimination.
Excluding those who weighed significantly more than 100 pounds, there were soon only five people left in the restaurant who met the criteria.
Among the five people, four were women. They wore light makeup and looked pretty, but the smell of perfume on their bodies was enough to kill a cow.
After locking on the five targets, Conan conducted a secondary elimination and found that there was only one person left alone, that was the man leaning against the window with gold-rimmed glasses. The two strands of hair that were parted in the middle were shiny and shiny, and lay obediently on his head, as if they had been touched by something.
"My goodness, with those gold-rimmed glasses and a middle-parted hair, he's a total beast in human clothing!"
Judging from the appearance alone, Conan felt that this person was very suspicious, but there is an old saying that goes, don't judge a book by its cover. He couldn't just rely on someone's appearance to conclude that the person was a serial killer!
Still need to investigate further...
But before he could take any action, Sawada Hiroki rushed forward first, grabbed the man's wrist, and looked at it over and over again.
"What are you doing?"
The man pulled his hand out, glanced to the left, then looked at Sawada Hiroki, frowned, and said in doubt:
"Who are you?"
Sawada Hiroki ignored him and shook his head at Conan. Although the man looked thin, his fingers were of even thickness and did not look like he had been wearing rings since childhood.
"Baron Abdullah, I'm so sorry!"
The conductor was shocked when he saw the man's appearance. He rushed over, pushed Sawada Hiroki aside, and apologized repeatedly:
"This kid bumped into you. It was our mistake. Please forgive me!"
"You haven't answered my question yet."
The man said calmly:
"This is a train reserved for nobles, why are there commoners here?"
"I'm so sorry. We were careless for a moment and didn't notice they slipped into the car!"
The conductor was obviously a little afraid of the man in front of him. He kept nodding and bowing, his face covered in cold sweat.
He knew the Baron too well...
In other words, not long ago, this baron was an earl, with hundreds of acres of territory and living in a large manor.
But he was demoted for stealing the jewels given to the royal family. If it weren't for his ancestors' contributions to the royal family...
I'm afraid I'll be demoted to a commoner.
That's why he came to London.
Besides...
Baron Abdullah's reputation is not very good. It is said that he has a perverse and violent temper and often beats and scolds the servants in his house. There is also a torture room in the basement of his manor for him to commit violence...
How could the train conductor afford to offend such a person?
"So that's how it is..."
The man nodded and said with a smile:
"It's okay. I forgive you."
"Thank you very much, thank you for your tolerance!"
"Well, throw them down."
"Huh?"
The conductor wondered if he had heard it wrong:
"Throw... down?"
"That's right. Since he boarded the vehicle illegally, it's against the rules. It's normal to throw him off, isn't it?"
Taking out a handkerchief from his arms, the man elegantly wiped the part that was grabbed by Sawada Hiroki, with a smile on his face:
"Any questions?"
"But...but this train is traveling at a speed of 60 kilometers..."
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, the conductor said with a wry smile:
"They are little children. If we throw them down rashly, their lives may be in danger... Baron, please forgive their rudeness..."
"I have already forgiven them, otherwise it wouldn't be as simple as just throwing them away."
The word "baron" touched the scar in the man's heart. His face suddenly darkened and he said in a cold voice:
"Didn't you hear what I said?"
"Throw it down!"
"Yes, sir."
Suddenly, a calm voice came from behind. Everyone looked at it blankly, and saw a man in a suit holding a little girl. He came to the restaurant at some point. From his slightly messy hair and dusty clothes, it was not difficult to tell that...
He seemed to have been traveling for a long time.
"Mr. Sakaki Makoto!"
Mao Lilan and the other three shouted happily:
"How did you catch up?"
"Horse, poor Louise, I hope he won't hate me for abandoning him on this lonely railway."
Sakaki Makoto sighed, feeling a little guilty.
He rode as fast as he could and finally caught up with the train. He was going to look for Jack the Ripper, but he didn't expect...
As soon as I walked into the restaurant, I heard someone trying to throw Conan and the others down.
"It seems there is another uninvited guest..."
The man sneered:
"Conductor, you should know what to do. Throw all six of them off the train!"
Click.
The golden revolver was pointed at the man's temple. Sakaki Makoto covered Ai's eyes and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Bang!
The bullet passed through the skull, and blood mixed with some white objects splattered on the window, creating a beautiful landscape painting.
"Ah... the noisy sound finally disappeared."
Putting away the revolver, Sakaki Cheng calmly pulled up the tablecloth. The cups and plates hit the ground and broke into pieces, but he didn't care. He directly covered the man's body with the tablecloth, lit a cigarette, and said quietly:
"You can throw him off now, conductor. That was his last wish, wasn't it?"
The incident happened too suddenly and no one reacted. They stared blankly at Sakaki Makoto and the revolver that was still smoking.
"You...you actually killed Baron Abdullah?!"
