Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 74: The Secret of Light

"Brother Kido," Ayumi took out a few candies from his pocket, and handed them to Gao Cheng after the phone call, "Can you figure out a way to find a bomb after eating candies?"

"Probably..." Gao Cheng took the candy with a dry cough, but didn't eat any more, but concentrated on recalling the bomber's reminder.

A total of 5 bombs are installed on the ring line, which will be activated at 4 pm. If the speed of the train is less than 60 kilometers per hour, the bombs will explode. In addition, the bombs will also explode after the sun goes down.

The last reminder is the X of XX. For this point, I have checked under the seat and above the grid...

Why, though, do bombs go off when the sun goes down?

The train was still running at a speed of 70 hours, and the high-rise buildings outside the ring line flashed past, and it took a while for the light to return to normal.

Gao Cheng held his chin, his expression moved slightly.

light?

There is some inspiration in my mind, but I can't come up with any clues to think about...

Looking at Ayumi who looked expectant and the depressed passengers on the other side, Gao Cheng's pressure suddenly increased.

Although he was guaranteed, he is really not good at solving puzzles, but there is no news from Conan.

As time passed by, Gao Cheng let out a sigh of relief under the tense eyes of everyone, took out the notepad he carried with him, and listed the clues one by one, imitating the one-minute mode of thinking and analyzing with difficulty.

The sound of the tram running, the noise of the passengers in the compartment, and the cries of children echoed in my ears all the time, as if I could already see the end of the tram explosion...

At the Green Terrace Police Hospital, Conan has been taken back to the ward. Originally, he also wanted to go to the Dongdu Railway Terminal, but he was severely criticized by Mori Kogoro.

Dr. A Li looked at his watch and said in a deep voice, "The sun will go down in half an hour. If you can't find it anymore, the bomb will explode by then..."

"Kirodo..."

Conan's eyes were heavy. He made an appointment with Gao Cheng. Gao Cheng got in the car to take care of Ayumi and the others to look for the bomb while he was investigating outside the car with the police, but until now he hadn't thought of the bomb and "sunset". What is the connection.

"If the bomb goes off, even Kido's skills will be hard to survive, Ayumi and the others...wait, Taiyo's words..."

"I see!" On the No. 10 train, Gao Cheng closed his eyes, and suddenly raised his head to look at the sun again.

"Brother Kido, do you know how to find the bomb?" Ayumi asked anxiously.

"Yeah, the key is the light. The bomb may be a special bomb that explodes without light!"

Gao Cheng compared the data listed on the notepad, the surrounding sound suddenly weakened, and the unique scene of the thinking space reappeared in front of his eyes, all the clues merged with each other, the brain was running at a high speed as if he had taken medicine, the circular train and the sun's rays Presented as a virtual model, constantly assuming the possible location of the simulated bomb, and denying it one after another, a perfect location consistent with "60 kilometers per hour" emerged.

"It's there!" Gao Cheng narrowed his gaze, and looked closely at the position under the train and between the rails.

The bomb wasn't on the train, it was between the tracks...

In the one-minute mode, the way of thinking is mainly derived from Sherlock Holmes' basic deductive method. Based on clue analysis and assumptions, more clues are sought by backward deduction until all clues can form a perfect logic to find the only truth.

No bomb was found in the car, and all clues point to the railroad tracks.

"Didi!" The phone in the arms of police officer Mu Mu suddenly rang at Dongdu Railway Terminal.

"Hi, I'm Mumu."

"I'm Kido," Gao Cheng contacted, "Officer Megure, I already know where the prisoner put the bomb!"

"What? You already know?!" After being surprised, Mu Mu subconsciously glanced at Mao Li who was still thinking hard,

"Did you find the bomb in the tram?"

"Those five bombs are not on the car, the correct location is between the rails."

Gao Cheng looked at the passengers who were holding their breath, and calmly explained to Mu Mu: "The bomb was designed by the prisoner. If there is no light for more than 12 seconds, it will detonate. Cover the light for a few seconds, a car is 20 meters long, and the total length of the 10 cars of the train is about 200 meters. If you pass a bomb at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour, the light will be blocked for 12 seconds, so the speed cannot be lower than 60 kilometers per hour!"

"Is this true, Brother Kido?!" Mu Mu couldn't help shouting, his excitement was beyond words.

"Well," Gao Cheng nodded affirmatively, "Officer Mugure, let the circular line train transfer to other tracks now, as long as you don't stop on the circular line, there will be no danger!"

"I understand!" Mumu hung up the phone cautiously and turned to the director of Dongdu Railway who was standing aside, "Director Sakaguchi, the lives of all passengers are at stake, please!"

"Um!"

Director Sakaguchi, the person in charge of the railway terminus, still had sweat on his face, nodded and walked to the podium in a dignified atmosphere: "Attention car No. 10! It will transfer to the freight line of Shibahama station in 3 minutes! Get ready for action now, hurry up!" !"

"Car No. 10 switched railway tracks after 3 minutes, Shibahama Station confirmed the track line and started the engine! The freight train moved to the emergency evacuation track!"

The command room of the dispatching station has entered an emergency and busy state, and all staff members are constantly in touch with various stations and trains.

"Train No. 10 passed Kawashina Station...arrived at Shibahama Station, and the track switch is complete!"

"Reduce your driving speed now!"

"68 kilometers... 64 kilometers... 63 kilometers..."

On the No. 10 train, the passengers stopped making noise, but watched nervously as the train entered the freight track at Shibahama Station, holding their breath after the speed of the train began to slow down.

"Brother Kido..." Ayumi hugged Gao Cheng's right leg tightly in fear, her small face was full of worry.

"fine."

Gao Cheng was under a lot of pressure. Even though he had repeatedly confirmed and analyzed it in the one-minute mode, he couldn't help but shed a cold sweat on his forehead when it came to fruition.

The tram is continuously decelerating, and the speed of 60 kilometers per hour is the moment of life and death. If there is an emergency, he will not be able to save any of these children, and even himself may not be spared.

"Trust me." Gao Cheng tried his best to calm down, and pulled Yuantai and Mitsuhiko to his side.

"61 kilometers! 60 kilometers..." The train driver was sweating, gritted his teeth and continued to slow down, "59 kilometers! 58 kilometers!!"

The driver wiped his sweat and said excitedly, "This is train No. 10, there is nothing abnormal!"

"Very good, keep slowing down! Stop on the cargo track!"

In the carriage next to the driver's cab, Mitsuhiko swallowed his saliva, and confirmed to Gao Cheng with lingering fear: "Brother Kido, are you all right now?"

Gao Cheng felt slightly relieved, with a smile on his face: "Yes, we are already safe."

"Really, really?" The passengers in the carriage wept with joy, and cheers echoed throughout the carriage.

"That's great, Brother Kido!" Fatty Yuantai almost jumped up when he heard that he didn't have to die, "I'll treat you to eel rice when I get back!"

"I don't need this, I don't eat fish..."

Gao Cheng laughed dryly, but his thoughts turned to other trams. There were still more than a dozen trams left on the circular line, and the bomb had not been found yet. The matter had only just begun.

At the Green Terrace Police Hospital, when Conan used the identity of Shinichi Kudo to contact Megure, he was surprised to hear that the location of the bomb had been deduced by Gao Cheng, and that a train had already transferred to the freight track of the station without incident.

Hanging up the phone, Conan's face relaxed, and he lay back on the hospital bed with peace of mind, and looked out the window with a smile at Dusk: "It's really great, as expected of Kido, the next step is to find the bomb and the prisoner..."
