The Hokutosei train is a premium (limited express) train that runs between Ueno, Tokyo and Sapporo, Hokkaido.
The Hokutosei train began operating in 1988 with the opening of the Hokkaido Shinkansen.
In today's era, the Beidouxing train can be said to be the most luxurious train, and tickets for first-class seats may not be available even if you have money.
Because of its blue paint job, it is also called the "Blue Train".
The "Hokutosei" is not only one of the most luxurious trains, but also has a special status among railway fans.
It is even called a must-take train that one must make a pilgrimage once in a lifetime.
"This place is so luxurious." After boarding the train, Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the surrounding decorations.
This amazement even continued from the moment I got in the car until I walked into the room, but it was just in a slightly different form... like now.
"Hehe, I'm not trying to brag, but the reason you two can enjoy this luxurious trip to the Big Dipper is all thanks to me, Sleeping Kogoro!"
Maori Kogoro repeated his achievements with a smug look on his face, causing Conan to roll his eyes and grumble, "It's obviously my achievement, but you probably solved the case without knowing anything!"
It’s not that Conan is impatient, but since entering the room, this uncle has repeated similar words seven times, and even Xiaolan beside him couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
But it is understandable that if we don’t compare the speed but only the interior, the environment of this train is much better than many trains in later generations.
Apart from the fact that the space is not that big, the room even has facilities such as a shower room, and the environment is basically the same as that of a hotel.
To some extent, Kogoro Mouri is also quite childish and can't help but want to boast about his own achievements.
Unfortunately, I accidentally became long-winded...
"Hey hey~ Oudou-san, I'm very grateful to you..." Seeing that Maori Kogoro was about to continue, Xiaolan quickly said, "By the way, Oudou-san, I suddenly feel very hungry. Let's call Detective Karasawa to go eat together?"
"It's already this late, and it's time for dinner." Maori Kogoro checked the time and pointed his thumb towards the door. "By the way, Miss Xia Jiang said in her letter that she has already booked dinner for us on the train. Let's go eat now."
"Then let's go find Detective Karasawa and then go to the dining car together." Conan said.
"Well, let's do it this way."
As Kogoro Mouri was speaking, he opened the car door, but the next moment he bumped into a man wearing a mask and sunglasses.
"You bastard, you have no eyes!!"
A man with a hat and a big beard pulled down his mask and roared angrily.
"Well, my friend, don't be so angry. It's just a small physical collision."
Just as the two were arguing, Tang Ze walked over from the corridor next to them.
"Who the hell are you? I..."
Before the man could get angry, he saw clearly the face of the man he bumped into, and then pointed at Maori Kogoro with a look of astonishment and said: "Aren't you the one..."
Then, he was surprised to feel the person who had just tried to stop the fight approaching. He turned around unconsciously and found that it was another familiar face.
"You..." After the man recognized Tang Ze's identity, his momentum immediately weakened, and he immediately put on the mask in his hand, "Forget it, forget it, let it be..."
The man pretended to be impatient and tried to walk past Tang Ze.
"Don't worry, my friend. It was our fault that we bumped into you. I apologize to you on behalf of my companion." Tang Ze smiled and stood in front of the man. "If you make a mistake, you must take responsibility. Don't you agree, Mr. Asami?"
The next moment, the man called Asama by Tang Ze immediately changed his expression. He roared and turned sideways with his right arm in an elbow strike, crashing towards Tang Ze's chest like a siege vehicle.
Unfortunately, Tang Ze, who had been prepared, had already noticed the opponent's movements. While dodging the elbow attack by turning his body to the side, he tripped with his right leg and pressed his hands on the opponent's left shoulder and rushed towards the wall next to him.
“Bang!!”
The huge force directly caused Asana to hit the wall. Although there was a loud noise, he did not suffer any damage.
"Nani, Nani! What's going on?" Maori Kogoro looked at the two people who suddenly started fighting and said inexplicably: "Don't fight, it's just a bump into someone, isn't it enough for me to apologize!!"
"He's a wanted criminal!" Tang Ze immediately yelled, "Help!"
Hearing this, Asana struggled even more frantically. He slammed his head hard against Tang Ze's face behind him, and at the same time, his right elbow punched hard behind him.
However, since Asama, who was at a disadvantage, was able to organize a counterattack, how could Tang Ze not take action?
When he pressed him against the wall, he knew that the opponent's right hand could move. Before Asama's right elbow hit him, he held down Asama's right upper arm tightly, restricting his attack on the wall.
While blocking the elbow attack, Tang Ze bent his legs and lowered his waist to avoid the headbutt, and his shoulder slammed into Asama's back.
“Bang!!”
A huge noise was emitted from the wall again. Tang Ze's attack was extremely fierce. He did not hold back at all when it exploded. It was like a chariot with the accelerator pressed to the limit. He just rushed forward with all his strength.
Asana's head hit the wall hard and his body was also in severe pain.
It was not until this time that Kogoro Mori stepped forward and pressed the opponent's shoulder directly. The two of them worked together to knock him down and pressed him to the ground.
"Conan, handcuffs!"
Tang Ze shouted, and Conan immediately found the leather holster for handcuffs on Tang Ze's waist and handed it to Tang Ze.
After handcuffing the other person, Tang Ze finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Detective Tang Ze, are you okay? What happened?"
When Xiaolan heard the noise and went out with Conan, she saw the fight between the two and heard Karasawa's roar. However, Kogoro Mouri rushed up and subdued the other party, so Xiaolan had no chance to fight back.
But what made her a little confused was that all this happened too abruptly, without any signs at all, and it was a bit hard for her to react.
"That's right, Detective Karasawa, what's going on here?" Maori Kogoro also asked, "You said he's a wanted criminal? What's going on here?"
"Some time ago, there was a robber named Asama Yasuji who was chased away by the jewelry store manager. You should have heard of him, right?"
"Oh, I've heard of it. It was reported in the news." Xiaolan looked at the man on the ground and said in surprise: "It's hard to say what he is..."
"Yes, that's the guy." Tang Ze nodded and smiled: "But I didn't expect to meet him here, what a coincidence."
