So after seeing the letter and confirming that their box had been chosen as the detective, the little ones all looked excited.
'He really calculated it.'
Looking at the contents of the envelope, Conan sighed and then calmed down, knowing in his heart that the criminal might have started to take action.
The reason why he was so sure was because he knew the specific content and gameplay of this train detective game.
In addition, he also knew that the paper would be a special black hard card stock, and the signature would be printed with a detective smoking a pipe.
The reason for this is that Tang Ze considered the possibility a few days ago that the criminal might use the detective game on the train to commit crimes.
Although they had arranged their own people to guard the carriages next to the murderer and the deceased.
But in order to prevent the murderer from using the inherent games on the train to commit crimes, this is done secretly so that they will not have time to detect the murderer's trick.
Tang Ze not only gave them the train layout, but also made some modifications to the detective game that would take place on the train and informed them of it.
But when Conan saw that the criminal really acted as Tang Ze predicted, he couldn't help but be amazed.
However, he quickly suppressed these distracting thoughts and began to lead the little ones towards the carriage where the prisoners were.
Although he knew that this was a trick of the criminal, he already knew how the other party would attack and the criminal's goal.
Then it would be easier to block the criminal's plan by taking advantage of his own strategy.
In this way, Conan led the three little ones to Murohashi's box, and happened to see the scene where the criminal "shot" the criminal.
As if noticing their arrival, the criminal in the game decisively shot Murohashi Etsuto to death with a fake gun.
Seeing this scene, the three little ones immediately chased after them, shouting in panic.
As for Conan, he followed behind the three little ones, deliberately falling behind and getting farther and farther away from them.
Watching the three little ones running away, Conan turned around and went to the room of the "victim" Murohashi Etsuto.
Although he became the "victim" in the game, he was looking at the red paint on his coat with an unhappy face, and had no intention of playing the role of a corpse.
"Kid, what are you doing?"
Murohashi Etsuto, who was frowning at his stained coat, looked impatient when he saw Conan enter the box.
"Ah, that's right, uncle."
Conan pretended to be a child and explained cutely: "My partner and I have been selected as detectives. Please cooperate with us, uncle~"
"Since you're a detective, why don't you go hunt down the criminal who killed me?" Murohashi Etsuto looked at Conan and pointed at his soiled coat and said, "You don't expect a 'dead man' like me to tell you who the murderer is, do you?"
"Of course not, but I don't think my companions can catch up with the criminal."
Conan smiled and said, "As a detective game, it must be dramatic and there must be tricks involved, so the possibility of being chased by the detective cannot be ignored.
Since the murderer dared to commit the crime, he must have planned it, and our game must be moved to the crime scene.
So I'll leave the pursuit to my companions. I'll hurry up and stay here to search for clues, and try to catch the criminal as soon as possible!"
"I'm telling you, haven't you ever thought of a possibility?"
Murohashi Etsuto was speechless after hearing Conan's words which sounded very reasonable. He looked at Conan and asked in silence, "What if the criminal simply rushed in and shot me, without leaving any evidence at all?"
"No, my teacher has a catchphrase, which is that wherever people walk, they will inevitably leave traces." Conan insisted on his point of view like a stubborn child: "He must have left clues!"
"Even though I don't know who your teacher is, I agree with what he says, but have you forgotten that this isn't reality, it's a game?"
Murohashi Etsuto complained: "Although I shouldn't speak as a 'corpse', I really want to say that the 'murderer' rushed in and beat me to death without leaving anything behind."
"Okay, okay." Conan agreed with a perfunctory expression, but he just didn't move to leave the other person's box.
Seeing the kid in front of him lying there and not moving, and even sitting down and trying to chat with him, Murohashi Etsuto looked very impatient.
But the game was not over yet. As a detective, he could indeed stay at the crime scene, and as the "deceased", he had no reason to ask the other party to leave.
Just like that, the two of them remained in a stalemate in the box.
On the other side, the three little ones lost the criminal while chasing the murderer, as expected. At the same time, they also noticed that Conan had fallen behind.
However, because they wanted to catch the murderer on their own, they were not surprised but happy that Conan fell behind.
Because in the past, Conan was the only one who stole the limelight, this time they also wanted to challenge themselves to catch the criminal before Conan and win everyone's praise.
It’s a pity that the idea is good, but the reality is very cruel.
They clearly saw the criminal escape into carriage number seven, but when they opened the door, they found that the people in the compartment were not the criminal, but their familiar sisters Ran, Sonoko, and Sera Masumi.
When asked, the three said they were in carriage number eight.
Unconvinced, they ran again and ended up in the box where Xiaolan and the others were.
In this situation, the three little ones were instantly confused.
Because carriage number seven is missing!
This strange situation left Yuantai and the other two completely puzzled. They tried to figure it out, but they were unable to solve it.
