The trustworthy Oguruma was also frightened by the corpse. Although he did not receive a direct visual impact, his strength was definitely affected. Even if he caught up with it, he could not subdue it.
Mr. Maori? Even worse!
What if she is forced into a desperate situation and tells the organization's secrets without caring about anything else?
He can't bear the risk!!
His thoughts turned over and over in his mind, but he still couldn't find a way out. Uozuka Saburo felt extremely anxious and even a little desperate.
If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have been so stubborn and insisted on sharing my big brother's worries by dealing with a traitor who wasn't very strong in frontal combat alone...
"Uncle Yuzhong, Uncle Yuzhong? Are you okay?"
Seeing Uozuka Saburo looking extremely bad, and the capable Oguruma standing beside him half-kneeling and retching, even a reckless man like Conan knew that he couldn't catch up now, so he walked over to Uozuka Saburo and comforted him, "She's gone. You've lost too much blood now, so don't force yourself to move."
"...How long until the train arrives?"
"Um, probably..."
Ding ding ding dong————
Dear passengers, the Shinkansen train will arrive at Shinagawa Station in 5 minutes. Passengers who wish to get off, please...
"...Five more minutes."
"......I see......"
No... This little time is not enough to catch up.
That girl also knows how to disguise herself. Although not as amazing as Vermouth, she's still a master. With just this group of ordinary passengers, even with Conan, a kid with sharp observation skills, there's no way they could arrest her in just five minutes, let alone kill her without anyone noticing...
It's all over.
"Ugh......"
Gradually convincing himself to face reality and trying to think of rescue measures, Uozuka Saburo, who was unable to bear the body, trembled twice, but still could not help the shaking of muscles and fell to the ground.
"uncle!!"
"Big Brother!!"
The commotion here made the still weak Oguruma unable to help but stop retching. He forced himself to crawl to Uozuka Saburo's side, took off his mask and looked at him with a worried look: "I'm sorry, Uozuka brother... I, I let you down..."
"Me too... Uncle Uozuka, I'm really sorry..."
When he thought of his extremely stupid behavior just now, Edogawa Conan wished he could go back and strangle himself to death. He fell into a visibly depressed state, as if a dark cloud had formed above his head.
With their help, Uozuka Saburo propped himself up a bit, barely leaning against the wall beside the aisle. He felt sleepy, uncomfortable, and extremely tired...
He doesn't have the energy to work on youth mental health projects right now...
"...I'm telling you guys, please don't look so downcast in front of me..."
Closing his eyes and resting the back of his head against the cold wall to relieve the pressure, Uozuka Saburo said weakly, "You're so spineless! It's really unbearable to watch... Oguri, do you want to postpone the tire training for a few more months?"
"...If this makes you happy, I..."
"The food is cut in half."
"That's absolutely not possible! Ugh..."
"..."
"..."
"...Mo, Uozuka-sama, please be serious!!"
Being looked at by Uozuka Saburo and Conan, Oguruma couldn't help but get angry. She held Uozuka Saburo's shoulders and said shyly and angrily: "Now is not the time to talk about this! Your physical condition is very bad. I want you to..."
"I'm talking about serious matters, right?"
Although she had no strength to stop Oguruma's tough tactics, Uozuka Saburo still used his calm tone to make her stop. She looked at him coldly with a pitiful and helpless expression, sniffed and wanted to cry.
————Unfortunately, the strong smell of capsaicin wafting from the previous train car and the strong smell of blood from the toilet cubicle behind her were so overwhelming that she just did this action and she couldn't help but turn her head to the side and retched.
Only Uozuka Saburo was left with a helpless look on his face. He silently adjusted the order of his work in his mind, turned his head to look at Conan and said, "Conan, my body is fine. A little more or less will not affect my health... We will deal with your sneak attack on me later. Now, continue to complete what you should do and catch that guy as much as you can. Do you understand?"
“…Yes, I understand!”
Hearing the determination in Saburo Uozuka's tone, Conan's depressed heart cheered up a little. He pursed his lips and nodded firmly. Without saying a word, he put on his mask and rushed back to the train car full of capsaicin.
"And you, Xiaoli, you should come along too."
"No... Ugh... At least, please let me protect you... Even if it means I can take the knife for you, it can still be of use!!"
"...It's up to you, though I don't think that guy will come back."
He heaved a sigh of relief, and having arranged everything that could be done, Uozuka Saburo planned to just fall asleep for a while and let the horse girl's power in this body repair the damage on its own.
————But just when he was about to relax, the cell phone in his trouser pocket suddenly vibrated rhythmically, making him open his eyes wide instantly!
This, is this the organization's unique vibration communication?
Who sent it? How do we know he still has this content?
[The traitor Sindra has been eliminated. ———Agnog]
Chapter 169: Police Arrive
Egnog? Who?
Is there such a member in the organization? How come he doesn't know?
He was confused by this sudden information, which caused the anesthetic toxin in his body to further attack. Before Uozuka Saburo could figure out the logic behind it, he fainted like a computer that was forced to shut down.
In the last moment before he lost consciousness, he seemed to hear several screams coming from all directions, and then a bright red color appeared outside the window...
......
......
"...Fufu~ Apparently, even the most stable and resolute core members of the organization occasionally stumble."
A large sun hat covered a pair of beautiful big ears, and the loose green and white striped dress could not hide her perfect figure. The horse girl, who exuded the temperament of a lazy young lady, looked at the picture on the phone and chuckled with her hands covering her mouth.
"After all, you still have to play the role of the horse girl instructor well, so it's not convenient to use some tricks. Otherwise, with your ability, dealing with such a small character should be easy... Lady Vermouth, you are really foresighted."
After muttering to herself, the horse girl turned off her phone, carefully put it back in her pocket, and leisurely walked towards the carriage.
At this moment, several people who looked like train attendants ran past her and asked anxiously, "Excuse me, Miss! Did you see who opened the train door just now?"
"Eh? Train, door?"
With a look of genuine surprise on her face, Mamu looked up and asked in confusion, "Shinkansen... aren't doors and windows supposed to be open? Why are you asking such a question?"
"Hey, it's because... well."
"Hey! Stop dawdling here and catch up!"
"Okay! Sorry to bother you, could you please return to your seat for a moment? We'll take care of it."
After saying this, the conductor, realizing that he had almost said something inappropriate and caused panic, forcibly ended the topic and hurriedly caught up with his companions, leaving only Miss Ma Musume, holding her face and watching them leave with a half-smile on her face.
----------
When Uozuka Saburo regained consciousness, two hours had passed, but the train still remained about five minutes away from Shinagawa Station.
The reason was that an "emotionally agitated" female passenger destroyed the circuit system of a carriage door through some illegal means, opened it alone and jumped out forcibly. Her upper body hit the wire rack next to it, and then her body was broken into 48 fragments of varying sizes on the spot under the huge force of the train, and evenly spread on the outer walls of the three carriages.
Regardless of how big the psychological trauma of the passengers in these three carriages is, the train doors that were originally controlled by the series circuit were damaged, and the wire rack that she installed was bent is the key point. For the high-speed Shinkansen, even the slightest deformation and damage will lead to a serious traffic accident. There is no way they can continue to run.
As one of the core railway hubs in the Tokyo area, Shinagawa Station obviously could not let this sudden accident delay them for too long. In less than half an hour, a large number of police and medical personnel were dispatched to the scene to maintain order, and all social forces were quickly mobilized to the scene to solve the problem.
Therefore, when Uozuka Saburo opened his eyes and raised his head, what he saw was a sea of red and blue lights: a dozen police cars, ambulances, fire trucks and engineering vehicles arrived at the scene, hundreds of civil servants were constantly shuttling back and forth at the scene like ants, and there were panicked and emotional passengers everywhere.
"...I see, so it's become like this..."
Leaning back on the portable chair that Oguruma had found for him, Uozuka Saburo let out a long sigh after listening to Conan's account of the current situation. He said with a mixture of emotion and regret, "That girl, she seemed like a very cautious person. How could she make such a mistake at such a critical position... Now we can no longer bring her to justice."
"...Uncle Uozuka, do you really think this was just an accident?"
"Of course not, but the police can only rule that it was an accident now."
Shaking his head, the still-weak Uozuka Saburo looked at the overly curious genius boy and said with genuine sincerity, "If she's the mastermind behind both parties to the transaction, then who's behind her? When and where did he start his actions? Was he even on this train? There's no way to find out."
"Ah...yes...hmm."
Recalling that "beach" of "evidence" that couldn't even be called human, Conan suppressed the urge to vomit, swallowed hard and said, "I... Uncle Maori just helped the police find the person who was doing business with the man. He's the guy dressed very formally in our carriage... He's an employee of a computer software company, and this time he was looking for that man to purchase banned drugs. Uncle Uozuka, did you guess it was him?"
"No... I just thought about the possibility that it was him."
Uozuka Saburo shook his head and said seriously like a real policeman, "No one can be convicted without definitive evidence. This is the principle."
"...Yeah! You're right!"
Taking a deep breath to dispel the haze in his mind, Edogawa Conan rekindled his fighting spirit and said seriously to Uozuka Saburo: "Uncle Uozuka, I think there are still a few places that are a bit suspicious. I want to go and take a look. I won't disturb your rest for now!"
"Hey! Wait!"
"Well! Please give me some advice!"
"...Don't forget, after the search is over, come and receive your punishment."
"...Okay! I won't forget it!"
The big stone in his heart finally fell, and Conan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. He ran towards the stopped train with the same enthusiasm as before, but much more cautious than before, and started his search journey.
Uozuka Saburo lay back and was about to take a short rest when he noticed something. He opened his eyes and turned around to look:
Two men, one tall and one fat, dressed like police officers, walked towards him quickly with serious expressions on their faces.
"Hello, I'm Officer Megure of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. This is Officer Takagi. Excuse me, are you Mr. Uozuka Saburo?"
Chapter 170: Bright eyes
Hmm. I haven't seen that tall, thin Officer Takagi much, but he seems a bit timid and trustworthy, so he should be easy to deal with. But this Officer Megure...
The memory of the chubby brown boy he had caught a glimpse of when he went to see Mejiro McQueen in the hospital a few weeks ago flashed through his mind. Uozuka Saburo understood and nodded calmly, "Okay, what's the problem?"
"Hi. According to that kid named Edogawa Conan and your companion... Uma Musume Oguruma, you were the first to discover her and fight her, right?"
He held the police manual upright, a small pen at hand, and stared at Uozuka Saburo. "Could you please describe the scene in detail?"
"Sure, of course."
Having anticipated the police's questioning, Uozuka Saburo calmly leaned back in his chair and recounted the entire incident to them.
He could feel that the other party had no ill will towards him. Unlike other police officers who often listed him as a suspect right away, he always maintained a businesslike attitude and tried his best to let him complete his narration in a relaxed state.
This is not the way to treat a possible suspect at all, but rather the attitude towards a "comrade"...
When has the organization ever recruited an undercover police officer? Or is this police officer just a good guy?
...Probably the latter.
Uozuka Saburo thought after observing for a while.
"That's basically it."
"Well, okay, thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Uozuka."
After calling the police officer named Takagi and briefly comparing his testimony with that of Oguruma and Conan, Megure Jusan was easily deceived by Uozuka Saburo's mixed story. He nodded and said, "There is nothing wrong with your testimony, Mr. Uozuka. I'm sorry to disturb your rest."
"Okay, thank you, Officer... Also, may I ask when we can continue our journey?"
"this......"
Stumped by the question, Megure Jusan, with a large belly, turned around and looked at the stalled Shinkansen train with personnel rushing around. He shook his head helplessly and said, "I can't say for sure. After all, your train is severely damaged in key areas. Even if it can be repaired temporarily, it won't be able to take you to the next stop. Besides, as the first person to discover the scene, you still have to go back to the Metropolitan Police Department with us to give a statement."
"......record?"
Uozuka Saburo frowned subconsciously.
"Oh, please don't worry, there's nothing you need to do."
