Ke Xue: The thief Cao is actually myself

Chapter 347: Women will only slow down my ability to catch bad guys! (Please give me a monthly ticket!)

"Why...didn't it explode?"

After a long time, Conan realized that he did not hear the sound of the bomb explosion, nor did he feel the heat wave generated by the explosion of the bomb, so he opened his eyes curiously.

Then he was surprised to find that what he saw was not the tragic scene of a bomb explosion, but various women's underwear scattered on the ground.

Well, in a sense, this scene was no less tragic than a bomb explosion.

"It's... underwear..."

Conan was a little confused.

Shouldn't the thing in the box be a bomb? Why is it underwear?
Moreover, it was a pair of women's underwear that was obviously totally incompatible with a middle-aged muscular man?
Did the other person accidentally take the wrong box with someone else, or does he just like to wear women's underwear?
Or, did he collect these women's underwear specifically as a treasure?

For a moment, Conan's mind was full of question marks.

"Damn these mischievous little devils!"

Looking at the women's underwear scattered on the ground and the strange looks from other people, the middle-aged strong man broke out in a cold sweat.

Unexpectedly, his special fetish, which he had hidden for so long without being discovered by anyone, would be exposed today because of a few children.

Now, he was forced to be publicly executed and he might have to move to another city, no, another planet to live.

Damn, these naughty kids are so damn disgusting!

In a rage and humiliation, he no longer cared about anything else and directly drove Conan and the other three out.

"Don't come here again!"

If beating children was not a bad thing and could easily attract the attention of passengers in other carriages and conductors, thus adding a new "achievement" to his already precarious social reputation, he would really want to beat up these children who had caused him social ruin, so that they would know how terrible the consequences of messing with other people's things would be!
It’s a pity that beating children is not really his style.

However, although we can’t hit people, it’s no problem to drive these naughty kids out!

In other words, he wished he would never have to use these naughty kids again!
……

"Conan, and you kids, please don't go too far."

Just following the noise, I found the second floor of car number seven. However, before I even went in, I saw four children who looked very familiar kneeling down to kowtow to me. Mao Lilan couldn't help but frown.

Thinking about the angry roar mixed with grief and indignation that she had just heard, as well as the current posture of Conan and the others, as smart as she was, how could she not understand that Conan and the others were kicked out because they played a prank in the carriage.

As for the owner of that roar, he was most likely the victim of their prank.

"..."

Conan looked at his friends and gave a wry smile.

When he was playing a prank, he was caught by his childhood sweetheart. Even he couldn't help but feel embarrassed about this.

No, he was not playing a prank at all. He was seriously looking for the bomb and trying to save everyone!
It’s a pity that it’s not convenient for him to tell his childhood sweetheart about this kind of thing.

After all, not to mention that it was difficult for him to explain how he knew there was a bomb in the box, he was no longer the original high school detective Shinichi Kudo, but a little child.

If a little kid said that there was a bomb in the car, even his childhood sweetheart would not believe it.

Perhaps, after the farce just now, there is one less person in the second-floor carriage of car number seven who is suspected to be the trading partner of the two men in black, leaving only three suspects. This is the only good news at the moment.

This method of elimination may not be very friendly to the middle-aged strong man who is socially dead.

However, if the other party knew that he did this to prevent the bomb from exploding and save all the passengers in the car, they should be able to forgive him, right?
Well, probably.

Now that the suspicion of the middle-aged strong man has been ruled out, the question is, who has the bomb?

Is it the bad-tempered programmer with glasses, the gentle and pretty woman, or the hard-of-hearing old man with a white beard?
For a moment, Conan couldn't help but fell into deep thought...

Looking at Conan, who showed no remorse on his face even after being kicked out, but instead lowered his head, and no one knew what he was thinking, Mouri Ran shook her head slightly.

Indeed, she shouldn't have let her guard down just because the little guy had performed well in the past.

Look, the other party is taking advantage of her absence to make some big news.

Fortunately, the passengers in the carriage on the second floor were magnanimous and did not make a fuss about it, otherwise this little guy and his friends would not have had a good ending today.

Thinking of this, while planning in her mind whether to report the other party's "glorious achievements" to the parents of these little guys after returning, Mao Li Ran returned to her seats with Conan and others.

No matter what "earth-shattering adventures" these little guys wanted to do, in order to avoid the situation just now from happening again, she had to keep an eye on these disobedient little guys and not let them run around or make trouble.

At the very least, before reaching their destination, these little guys would never be out of her sight again.

In particular, there is a kid who seems well-behaved and cute, but is actually the most naughty and courageous!
……

"Those two guys are really abominable."

Sitting in his seat, looking at the scenery outside the window boredly, Conan gritted his teeth, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.

If it weren't for those two men in black, how could he, his Xiaolan, and the passengers on the Shinkansen be in danger?

Unfortunately, when he discovered that the other party had placed a high-performance bomb in the box of the trading partner, it was too late.

For now, all he can do is to determine the identity of the transaction partner of the two men in black as soon as possible, find the box containing the bomb, and then find a way to get rid of it before the bomb explodes so that it can no longer pose a threat to other people.

Thinking of this, Conan quickly recalled the previous conversation between the two men in black in his mind.

Because, in order to find the box containing the bomb, we must first determine the true identity of the person the man in black is trading with.

The important clue to the true identity of the transaction partner lies in the conversation between the two men in black.

'Is it a time bomb?'

"No, when the time comes, that guy will press the button to explode the bomb without knowing it."

Recalling the conversation with the man in black, Conan's eyes lit up and he suddenly realized.

That's right, so the explosion will react with something.

So, what could that thing be, and who would it be with?
After carefully recalling the items around the remaining three people, Conan sighed slightly after a moment.

"Laptop, mobile phone, Walkman, no, none of them are suspicious. I still don't have enough clues."

Thinking of this, Conan jumped off his seat and wanted to go to the non-smoking compartment on the second floor of car number seven to continue looking for new clues.

However, before he could run away, Mao Lilan, who was quick-witted and quick-handed, stopped him and said, "Hey, where are you going?"

As expected, she knew that Conan was a particularly dishonest child. Before the other children did anything, Conan couldn't help himself.

"Didn't I tell you to sit still, Conan?"

Conan opened his mouth and said, "Ah, I need to go to the bathroom."

As the saying goes, there are three urgent needs for human beings, and going to the toilet is the first one.

I need to go to the bathroom, which is a universal excuse to run away.

Mao Lilan gave him a blank look and said, "You've already been to the toilet."

I just finished using the toilet. How long has it been? Why do I want to go to the toilet again?
Could it be that this child has kidney problems?

Of course, she also knew that the so-called going to the toilet was more likely an excuse for some little guy to run away, rather than the other party really intending to go to the toilet.

Conan rolled his eyes and came up with a new excuse, "I'm thirsty."

Mao Lilan pursed her pink lips and said, "Be patient."

It's okay to go to the toilet if you are thirsty.

Is your drink toilet water?

This kid, even if he wants to make an excuse, can he please be more careful?

Conan still didn't give up, "I want to buy a gift."

Mao Lilan chuckled and said, "I bought it on the way back."

Edit, keep editing.

She wanted to see how many excuses this little guy could come up with in order to run away.

Not disappointing her expectations, Conan made up a new excuse without thinking, "I'm going for a walk."

"No, really, what a naughty child."

Seeing that Conan actually made up a new excuse without even blinking, Mao Lilan shook her head slightly.

This kid has so many excuses!
However, he made up so many excuses without blinking an eye. Obviously, this was not the first time the other party had done something similar.

It seems that she really misjudged the other person before.

Not only is the other party not a good child, but on the contrary, he is a naughty child. In fact, he is even more naughty than Yuantai and others.

Thinking of this, Mao Lilan became even more determined not to let the other party leave.

After all, no one knows what kind of pranks this naughty little guy will play.

"If an explosion occurs, Xiaolan, I, and the other passengers will all..."

Seeing time slipping away bit by bit, the bomb would explode in a while. But no matter what he said, his childhood sweetheart refused to let him go. Conan was immediately anxious.

Neither the bomb explosion nor the injuries to the passengers on the Shinkansen were what he wanted to see.

Not to mention, this also involves the person he cares about the most, Ran Maoli.

"It has come to this point that I have no choice but to tell the whole truth!"

After all, if the passengers were not evacuated as soon as possible, once the bomb exploded, there would undoubtedly be heavy casualties on this Shinkansen.

In fact, if you are unlucky, there is a high possibility that no one will survive.

"But no one would believe what a child says."

Otherwise, his actions when he went to the crew room to inform the train attendants about the bomb would not have been treated as a prank.

Of course, we can't say it so absolutely.

If he told that to a private investigator, he might be believed.

After all, that guy had been secretly keeping an eye on the two men in black before, and he might have noticed something.

Unfortunately, when he returned to his seat, he actually tried to find the other person, but he couldn't even see the other person, let alone talk to him.

Even if they asked Mao Lilan and others, they didn't know the whereabouts of the other party.

Since he couldn't find a private detective, even if he wanted to tell the other party the information he knew, he didn't know where to start.

Thinking of this, Conan took a deep breath.

Since he couldn't rely on a private detective for the time being, he could only find someone else.

For example, his childhood sweetheart, Mao Lilan.

Of course, he also knew that it was not an easy task to make Mao Lilan believe that there was a bomb placed on the train and that it was about to explode.

But fortunately, he has the confidence to make him believe in himself.

"There is only one way to make her believe me. If she knows that I am Kudo Shinichi, Xiaolan will believe what I say!"

As for making Xiaolan believe that he is Kudo Shinichi, this matter is probably not easier than making others believe that there is a bomb?
At this time, he could no longer care about these things.

What's more, he believed that the feelings and bonds between him and his childhood sweetheart, Ran Mouri, could not be severed simply by making them smaller!

"Others will believe what Xiaolan says!"

Maybe adults won’t believe what children say.

However, if the person speaking is also an adult, and this adult is connected to the two detectives, especially if one of them is the nationally renowned high school detective Shinichi Kudo, who is known as the "savior of the Japanese police" and the "Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era", then they must take it seriously!

As long as the staff on this Shinkansen can take it seriously, then relying on their power to determine the true identity of the person trading with the two men in black and find the whereabouts of the box containing the bomb, it will undoubtedly be an easy task!

Similarly, as long as the high-performance bomb that was maliciously placed in the box of his trading partner by a long-haired man in black can be found and eliminated in time before it explodes, the explosion crisis this time will naturally disappear into thin air.

At that time, the passengers of this Shinkansen, especially his Xiaolan, will no longer be in any danger of life.

Thinking this way, Conan made a decision in his heart...
