Chapter 582 Train
The manager reluctantly turned his eyes away from the cash and glanced towards Ze Yu.
At this time, Ze Yu was grabbing the young man by the collar and beating him up, scaring the guests around him.
The manager wanted to stop it, but the problem was that the money given by Haibara Ai was too much.
In the end, the manager chose to remain silent.
The members of the Junior Detective Team stood aside, discussing and watching the young man being beaten.
Ayumi was rather timid, and looked a little reluctant, unable to bear to watch this, but she did not say anything to stop Ze Yu's behavior.
Because this young man threatened Genta, Ayumi hated him and there was no need for her to plead for him.
Until finally, the police arrived.
The ambulance also arrived.
The young man who was beaten by Ze Yu and completely lost the ability to move was carried into the ambulance.
The members of the Junior Detective Team watched the police car and ambulance leave.
Haibara Ai gave all the cash that Ze Yu had in his backpack to the restaurant, not only compensating for the restaurant's losses, but also leaving a lot of money left over.
Although, if something like this happens in a restaurant, it may damage the restaurant's reputation and lead to a decrease in customer traffic...
But it doesn’t matter. The money that Haibara Ai gave is equivalent to the restaurant’s income for nearly ten years.
With this money, the restaurant owner can even sell the restaurant directly and travel around the world.
Overall, after this incident, the restaurant did not lose money, and even made a lot of money.
As for Ze Yu’s backpack, why can it hold so much cash?
Because his backpack is not an ordinary backpack, but a high-tech product, a space backpack.
Although the storage capacity of this space backpack is not as good as Doraemon's four-dimensional pocket, it is not small either, equivalent to the capacity of ten ordinary backpacks.
With such a spacious capacity, it is easy to save some money for emergencies.
And just like that, the incident ended.
The young man who dared to threaten Yuantai paid a heavy price.
.........
A few days later, a train departed from Tokyo and headed for Hokkaido.
The Maori family of three were passengers on this train and they were invited to go to Hokkaido.
The person who invited them was an old acquaintance, Hatamoto Natsue.
He is the heir of the Hatamoto family where the case once occurred on the luxury ship.
Because of Sawawa's intervention, Hatamoto Gozo, who should have died in the original timeline, survived.
He left the family business to his granddaughter, Hatamoto Natsue, and her husband, Hatamoto Takeshi.
However, after that incident, Xia Jiang became tired of the life of luxury, so she left the bustling city with her husband and returned to the countryside to live a free and easy life.
Xia Jiang had a good impression of the Maori family. After coming to live in the countryside, she specially invited the Maori family to visit the ranch in the countryside.
Even the tickets for the Maori family to board this train were given by Xia Jiang.
A letter was also sent along with it.
"Dear Mr. Kogoro Mori..." In the train compartment, Xiaolan read the contents of the letter carefully.
"Xiaolan, Conan, are you all right? Xiaowu and I are looking forward to your arrival..."
"Yours sincerely, Hajimoto Xiajiang."
After reading it, Xiaolan folded the letter solemnly and kept it close to her body.
"Is this letter written by the aunt from last time?" Conan asked curiously.
Xia Jiang is only 22 years old. Logically speaking, she cannot be called an aunt, but a sister at most. But because Xia Jiang is married, Conan calling her "Auntie" is not wrong.
"Yeah." Xiaolan didn't intend to correct Conan's address. She smiled and said, "They are at the ranch, waiting for us with great anticipation."
"I really miss them a little bit..." Xiaolan said with some sigh while lying on the bed.
.........
It is afternoon now, and soon evening will arrive. The sunset glow shines through the window into the train.
It's time for dinner.
Xia Jiang not only gave Mao Li's family train tickets, but also thoughtfully booked dinner for them.
Therefore, the Maori family does not need to spend any money to enjoy free French food in the dining car of the train.
By the time they finished eating, it was already night.
While eating, the Maori family got to know three passengers.
They are: the jewelry store manager 'Keitaro', the clerk 'Jiayue', the mayor 'Ishizumi', and a woman in a green dress 'Fumiyo'.
The store manager and the mayor had some conflicts, but they were elites in society after all, so they didn't start arguing on the spot.
However, when they were discussing with each other, there was a faint sense of confrontation between the two sides' words.
After dinner, the Maori family returned to their box.
Immediately afterwards...
The manager of the jewelry store, Keitaro Izumo, is dead. The person who killed him was a man wearing a hat, sunglasses, a mask and a coat.
The murderer hid all his features and no one could see his face.
The murderer shot and killed the store manager. The gunshot attracted the attention of the Maori family, who ran out of the box and chased the murderer.
The murderer fired several shots while fleeing, and while Uncle Maori was busy dodging bullets, the murderer disappeared.
There was only one empty compartment left for Uncle Maori, and the window of the compartment was broken.
According to Uncle Maori's guess, the murderer should have broken the window and jumped out of the train.
However, the train is moving at high speed. If you jump off the train at this time, wouldn’t that be seeking death?
Seeing this scene, Conan was stunned.
A long and familiar paragraph of text emerged in his mind.
[But within a few minutes, the man disappeared...]
[The sound of the wind and the sound of the train, at this time, played a noisy melody...]
Conan remembered.
This was the plot he read when he was a child in an unpublished novel written by his father.
Everything Conan sees now is happening according to the contents of the novel.
.........
Soon, the train stopped.
Police arrived at the scene and investigated the passengers on the train.
They knocked on the door of the first box, and the person who opened it was a middle-aged lady with a rather bad temper.
This lady was the wife of the deceased 'Izumo Keitaro'. She was woken up from her sleep and looked unhappy and spoke in a very bad tone.
It was not until she found out that the deceased was her husband that the anger and impatience on her face instantly turned into fear and anxiety.
It is obvious that after losing her husband of prominent status, this aunt lost her backbone and could no longer be proud, revealing her cowardly nature.
The police knocked on the door of the second box, and the person who opened it was a jewelry store clerk, Jia Yueli Ze.
