Chapter 368 The Dark Mysterious Train 11
Toru Amuro took out the fake painting from Mr. Anton's bag, and it was indeed a bit heavy.
He opened the canvas and looked at it with a slightly surprised expression. He checked it again in disbelief before reporting the result to Mr. Maori: "Mr. Maori, there is no mirror inside."
Conan: "!"
How could there not be one? According to reasoning, the murderer could only be Mr. Anton!
Anton Yu then calmly explained: "I told you that the painting is heavy because its frame is made of gold. As for the mirror hidden inside, that's completely nonsense."
Shikanoin Heizo snapped his fingers, "So what I said was right, after all, only Kaito Kid is capable of committing the crime."
Everyone gradually turned their suspicious eyes to the disguised Kaito Kid and his assistant.
"Hey, without evidence and motive, this can't prove that I am the murderer." Kaito Kid said dissatisfiedly.
At the same time, he slightly shifted his body to block his assistant, Terai Konosuke, and secretly gestured to him.
"He's right. Although I don't think the thief is innocent, in this case, the evidence you used to identify him as the murderer, Shikanoin, is indeed not sufficient." Toru Amuro stood up from the fake painting and echoed.
Conan breathed a sigh of relief.
He really didn't think that Kaito Kid was the murderer, but he didn't find the core evidence for his reasoning, which he thought was 100% accurate, so he didn't dare to speak up.
"Okay." Shikanoin Heizo shrugged helplessly, "But I think we should catch him. After all, Kaito Kid is a criminal. As for evidence, we can find it slowly."
"Hahaha!" Kaito Kidd laughed out loud. "You said you were going to catch me, kid. You're really arrogant."
After saying that, he covered his mouth and nose with one hand and threw a smoke bomb to the ground with the other hand.
Seeing that everyone's vision was obscured by the smoke, Kaito Kid pulled up Terai Kōnosuke and turned to leave. Now was probably not the right time to take the gems.
Suddenly, he felt something and turned his head sharply, narrowly avoiding the fist that Shikanoin Heizo was swinging towards his face.
Heizo Shikanoin's swift fist even created a gust of wind that tore the disguise mask on his face. The wind even blew away the smoke around Kaito Kid.
Kaito Kidd looked in astonishment at Shikanoin Heizo who suddenly appeared in front of him.
Hey, no way, is his luck so bad recently? Why does he always run into people whose abilities don't match their appearance?
But soon, Kaito Kid sorted out his fluctuating thoughts, let Terai Kōnosuke go first, and he stopped Shikanoin Heizo.
Terai Yosuke had no intention of lagging behind, so he left quickly without saying much, leaving behind Kaito Kid who had already fought with Kanoin Heizo for a while.
As soon as he started fighting with Shikanoin Heizo, Kaito Kid secretly complained. Shikanoin's punches were too powerful, and there was a strong wind from time to time. If he hadn't reacted in time and dodged quickly, the makeup on his face would have been knocked off or blown away by the strong wind.
Fortunately, he had a poker gun, which allowed him to increase the distance from time to time, so he was not caught by Shikanoin in a short period of time.
"This way!" Xia Xi stood in front of a carriage door, holding the door handle and waved to Shikanoin Heizo.
After a while, the smoke had dissipated a little and they could barely see their surroundings.
Seeing Xia Xi's position clearly, Kaito Kid felt uneasy. The last time he saw this girl, he suffered a loss at her hands. Would it happen again this time?
He wanted to move away from that position, but unfortunately Shikanoin Heizo did not give him the chance. After forcing Kaito Kidd close to Xia Xi, Xia Xi took over and kicked Kidd into the carriage when he was not prepared, and then closed the door.
With a "click", the door was completely locked. It could not be opened from either the outside or the inside.
Xia Xi put down the terminal in her hand that she had just typed something into, looked up and saw Maori Kogoro, Conan and others with puzzled expressions in front of her, and blinked, "Didn't I tell you that Mr. Suzuki prepared a surprise for Kaito Kid? This is it."
Xia Xi pointed to the carriage door that had been silent since it was closed and said, "All the carriage doors on this train have a special mechanism. If you enter the carriage number in a special software on the terminal, the door will be locked and no one can open it.
Unless they reach the final stop, Nagoya, and Mr. Suzuki Jirokichi opens the door himself, the people inside can hardly get out. Kaito Kidd can only be locked in the carriage, and his disguise is now useless.
Now, the biggest suspect in this case is in custody, and the follow-up investigation will be handed over to the police after the train arrives at the station."
Hearing that Kidd was not in danger for the time being, Conan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But looking at the tightly closed door, he couldn't help but feel a little gloating when he thought that Kidd might be facing the door with a distressed look on his face and had no way to deal with it.
