It was almost approaching the platform, but the train did not slow down. Seeing the platform already in front of them, it went "Whoosh" and passed directly through the station.
"Why didn't it stop at the station?"
The train's abnormality caused some commotion among the passengers in the carriage.
"Emergency notice, passengers please pay attention."
All passengers instantly quieted down.
"Due to special circumstances, this train will not stop at stations from now on until the fault is repaired."
"Repeating once."
Hearing the train's broadcast, those passengers could no longer maintain their calm.
"What exactly happened? Why not stop?"
"Could it be that the brakes failed?"
"If the brakes failed, then what should we do?"
The inside of the carriage gradually began to become chaotic.
"Passengers, do not worry, this is just a small malfunction. Wait until it is eliminated, we will let everyone off very soon, do not worry."
The attendants didn't know what happened either, but under orders from superiors, they could only appease everyone as much as possible.
The noise in the carriage did not seem to affect Sato Miwako, who looked out the window with listless eyes.
"Are you preparing to give up?"
Heiji's indifferent voice entered her ears. Her expression was slightly stunned, then revealed a touch of determination:
"I will not give up. I will be a police officer forever, until I die."
"And then never marry, not live a normal person's life?"
Heiji asked indifferently.
Sato Miwako's eyes revealed a touch of softness, staring blankly at Heiji.
After a long time, a flash of dejection crossed her beautiful eyes:
"I am a bad luck magnet. As long as it is someone I care about, not long after, they will be taken away by the Death God."
"So you're saying, I am also someone Miwako cares about?"
Heiji suddenly laughed.
Sato Miwako was stunned, then shook her head:
"No."
The next moment!
"I'll go help appease those passengers."
Looking at Sato Miwako turning to walk towards the attendants, Heiji smiled faintly: Not? Then why cry?
A crystal-clear tear fell on the ground, shattering like a snowflake.
Sato Miwako tidied up her mood:
"Passengers, I am Officer Sato from the Metropolitan Police Department. Please cooperate with the attendants' work."
With a police officer present, the scene was quickly brought under control.
Heiji was not idle either, leaning against the train's pole, hands in pockets, contemplating quietly: Why does this incident feel so familiar?
However, after thinking for a while and still not remembering, he gave up and started analyzing the hint Conan gave.
[Speed must be above 60 km/h, otherwise the bomb will be detonated; when the sun goes down, the bomb will also be detonated; that is to say, the conditions to trigger the bomb are 60 km/h speed or sunlight...]
Heiji's brows wrinkled.
[XX of X should foreshadow the location where the bomb is placed. On top of the carriage? On top of the electric wires? Or under the train? Or between the tracks?]
Heiji's eyes lit up, and he walked quickly towards the attendant:
"Sir, may I ask how long one train carriage is, and how many carriages are there in total?"
The attendant was stunned, looking at Heiji impatiently:
"Sir, please do not disturb our work."
"Please assist him. His discovery will be of great help to this malfunction."
Sato Miwako said seriously.
"No problem."
Immediately, that attendant told Heiji the basic data of the train.
"Heiji, did you find something?"
Sato Miwako had already recovered to her original state, at least it couldn't be seen from the outside.
"What time is it now?"
Heiji did not answer, but instead looked outside the car window.
"Approaching five o'clock."
Sato Miwako looked at her watch.
"There is still more than half an hour before the sun goes down. It looks like we can still go play for a bit."
Heiji smiled at Sato Miwako.
A flash of confusion crossed Sato Miwako's beautiful eyes.
Heiji did not speak, but dialed Inspector Megure's phone.
"Ah, Hattori, I was just about to look for you, there is a very important matter right now..."
"Kudo already told me the specific matter. I already know the specific location of the bombs."
Heiji interrupted Inspector Megure's words.
"What? Then Hattori, you already know where those bombs are hidden?"
Inspector Megure suddenly shouted loudly.
"Found it?"
Hearing Inspector Megure's words, the entire railway command center instantly looked at him with shock, faces full of anticipation.
"According to the hint given by the criminal, the bombs should have been specially modified and need to be exposed to sunlight to not trigger the detonation. One carriage is about 20 meters, 10 carriages in total... converted according to a speed of 60 km/h, the speed per second is 16.7 meters, which means the time for the train to pass from head to tail is 12 seconds. So the bomb's time limit should be a minimum of 13 seconds. Furthermore, the bombs are not placed inside the carriages. The meaning of XX of X is 'between the tracks' (Iron Tracks of Between). Only in this way can it be guaranteed that the bombs receive sunlight irradiation, and also threaten the carriages. So, having all the Touto Loop Line trains leave their original tracks should make everything fine."
Inspector Megure nodded seriously, and looked fiercely at the Railway Bureau Chief:
"Chief Sakata, you heard it all, right?"
Chief Sakata of the Railway Bureau nodded seriously and hurriedly went to command.
On the train, Heiji felt the direction of the car start to change.
"Heiji, the speed slowed down."
Sato Miwako obviously felt it too.
Slowly, the train stopped.
"Hattori, thanks to you."
Inspector Megure brought Mouri Kogoro and Chief Sakata along to welcome Heiji.
Heiji smiled faintly:
"I was also thinking for the sake of my own little life."
"Haha."
Inspector Megure was very happy.
"Inspector Megure."
Sato Miwako called out.
"Miwako? Why are you together with Hattori?"
Seeing Sato Miwako, Inspector Megure was somewhat surprised.
Sato Miwako blushed and hurriedly denied:
"I just happened to bump into Heiji."
At this time, Mouri Kogoro's phone rang.
"Great Detective, not bad, to unexpectedly find five bombs so quickly."
"Wahahaha, with me, the famous detective Mouri Kogoro here, dealing with you is a piece of cake."
Mouri Kogoro laughed proudly.
Heiji was speechless: In the Conan world, when it comes to having thick skin, really no one can compare to Mouri Kogoro.
"Great Detective, don't be proud yet, the bombs have not been finished dismantling."
Mouri Kogoro's laughter came to an abrupt halt:
"Still have bombs? Wasn't it five?"
"Still have bombs?"
Inspector Megure's face changed drastically, and he couldn't help but cry out in alarm.
"The sixth bomb, detonates at six o'clock sharp."
