"What...are you talking about?!"
Listening to them chatting like this, Hattori Heiji always felt like an outsider.
"Oh? Young man! Fort York is still less than two hours away," Toriop said seriously: "You'd better go back to the box and have a good sleep!"
"Yes, Heiji, go to sleep, everything will be over when you wake up."
"Brother Gengyi...I..."
Being stared at by Ye Gengyi's calm eyes, Hattori Heiji suddenly felt that he was abandoned, "I, I will just listen here, and I won't go anywhere..."
"Don't think about it again?" asked Toriop.
"Don't think about it!" Hattori Heiji was very sure and sat directly on the bed: "I even know about their cannibalism, there is nothing else I shouldn't listen to."
"Well..." Toriop touched his bag: "In that case, it seems we have nothing to say, right?"
"There's really nothing to say." Ye Geng nodded, turned around and left.
Hattori Heiji, whose butt was still hot, said: "???"
Toriop turned to look at him, "Young man, I like silence."
Hattori Heiji:"......"
...
When a certain black man returned to the box.
Ye Gengyi was lying on the bed with his eyes closed just like yesterday.
Seeing that he didn't respond, Hattori Heiji angrily started flipping through the magazines on the table, trying to find something out of them.
Swish, swish, swish... swish, swish...
The noise caused by the friction of paper was very loud, and not long after, a certain black man felt it, a look from the bed opposite.
"Heiji."
"Brother Gengyi, just tell me..."
"Actually, there's nothing to say. Don't forget, this is a legal special train."
Ye Geng said: "We don't want to cause trouble, and the great detective also doesn't want to cause trouble for his employer."
"Uh...but that rich businessman is dead."
"Well, although I am also surprised, this should be an exercise of their power within the legal scope."
Ye Geng said: "Have you ever considered what would happen to a train carrying ogres if the people on it wanted to return to human society?"
"I..." Hattori Heiji couldn't give an answer for a while.
"It's difficult to change a person's habits, but perhaps all it takes is a suitable environment. That businessman was the former vice-captain. If he wanted to leave here, it would be tantamount to betrayal for the remaining people."
Ye Geng paused for a moment, "Among these people, except for the businessman and the nun, the other people's professions actually have no reason to get off the job. The big detective next door was hired to investigate the businessman's thoughts, so the old lady started from The nun's box prayed all afternoon, and finally someone nailed the 'betrayer' to the wall of the restaurant. I think those people should be dining under his 'eyes' now."
"hiss..."
Hattori Heiji shuddered, "But I still can't figure it out. Is the reason why they killed people just because the businessman wanted to leave here? What about us? Aren't we also going to get off at Fort York?"
"This is just my guess."
Ye Geng said:
"There can't be only crew members on a cruise ship. It's very possible that the noble lady was a nobleman who survived the shipwreck at that time. Even if it was for survival, she made the mistake of 'cannibalism' after all. Her life can be saved." Stay, but in order to avoid bringing shame to the family, this is why this train has a 'deformed' existence and meaning."
"The captain can't abandon his ship, but he can't drive this train, so he's stuck here as a cook. As for the vice-captain, the businessman, he wants to bring supplies and some jewelry for this train. It was brought back by him."
"It's okay not to go out. Once you enjoy the wonders of the world, you will always have other thoughts. After all, they have a legal existence in this car. If they go out, they will become murderers, right?"
He paused and said, "As for us, we are just two insignificant travelers. Are you still trying to control the British nobles with your own laws?"
The box fell into silence again.
Hattori Heiji was silent for a long time and said, "I can understand...but I can't seem to accept it."
"Well," Ye Gengyi responded, "This matter is quite hurtful to say, but it seems that there is no reason for you to accept it, right?"
"Ah, this..." Hattori Heiji felt like he had been splashed with cold water.
"I'm quite surprised that you can restrain your curiosity." Ye Geng said: "If you rush up regardless of today, maybe we will have to stage a hijacking incident before we can get off safely."
Hattori Heiji was silent again.
Because he knows that this assumption is not exaggerated at all. How can all the villains break it?
"So, that detective named Tori... Brother Gengyi, have you been wary of him from the beginning?"
"I'm not one of those kids who gets excited when you hear about a colleague and sees a case, and doesn't care."
Ye Geng said: "The guy came in yesterday and left a note, and his testing of us started. I think he originally wanted to avoid trouble and planned to abide by the laws on the train. He first used us to investigate the wealthy businessman, and finally attracted the officer Please pay attention and make us into rations for the journey."
"That bastard..." Hattori Heiji was shocked and couldn't help cursing secretly: "I want to go over and beat him up right now!"
"Don't worry," Ye Gengyi comforted: "The British great detective Toriop may have a chance in the future..."
"Uh..." Hattori Heiji blinked, always feeling that this comfort was very convincing.
He thought for a while and then said: "Then, brother Gengyi, how did you make him change his attitude?"
"Nothing, just a casual chat."
Ye Gengyi said: "Your contribution is indispensable here."
My credit...
Hattori Heiji was ashamed, "I don't have any merit. Brother Genichi, please don't hurt me anymore..."
"What I said is true," Ye Geng said: "You will directly ask him about the issue of Car No. 4, and the behavior of doubting the time of death just now is our bargaining chip... Of course, it is also possible that I want to think too much. ”
Hattori Heiji:"......"
"Okay, now can you tell me who the client is who lives in Fort York?" Ye Gengyi asked.
"His surname is England, and he is a descendant of a noble family. He came to Osaka once before I was born. I was able to receive this commission because Heye's father was once in charge of his security. As for the commission, The content seems to be related to the will, I really don’t know more.”
After Hattori Heiji finished speaking, he was obviously still worried about the topic just now: "But, Saraichi-nii... Even if this train is legal, are you really not interested at all in what is in Car No. 4? ?”
"It should be a cold storage, after all, it can freeze a living person to death." Ye Gengyi said: "And those 'goods lists', I guess they should be the execution orders of some local death row prisoners."
"Brother Gengyi..."
"Um?"
"I always feel that you are not guessing these things." Hattori Heiji said.
"Then how do I know?" Ye Gengyi asked.
"Well..."
"Just think I heard it."
"Well..."
Hattori Heiji continued to feel ashamed.
What kind of excuse is this?
