Ke Xue: Shinichi and I are childhood friends.

Chapter 1326 Bullets and Stations

This side of Nagoya.

Yumi Miyamoto and Hideyoshi Haneda were sitting at an outdoor table in front of a restaurant.

Seeing Miyamoto Yumi completely drunk and incoherent, Haneda Hideyoshi couldn't help but say, "Yumimi, you've had too much to drink. How am I supposed to introduce you to my family like this!"

Unexpectedly, Yumi Miyamoto slammed her hand on the table and shouted, "What does this have to do with your family!"

Haneda Hideyoshi was startled. Before he could say anything, he heard her say, "Anyway, it's not just the two of us getting married!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Miyamoto Yumi raised another glass of beer and chugged it down in one go.

Upon hearing this, Hideyoshi Haneda stood up excitedly: "So, you're willing to accept my proposal?!"

Yumi Miyamoto, holding up her empty wine glass, shouted, "Of course!"

Haneda Hideyoshi's eyes lit up, and he rushed over to hug Miyamoto Yumi tightly, tears welling up in his eyes. He shouted, "Yumimi! I will definitely make you happy!"

The conversation between the two was overheard by the surrounding guests, who tacitly offered their blessings with applause.

the other side

With John Floyd gone, the third kidnapping case was considered closed.

Yuya's phone vibrated, and when he took it out, he saw that it was a call from Shuichi Akai.

"I'll take this call," Yuya said to Sera Masumi, and then walked aside to answer the phone.

Sera Masumi took out her phone and started composing a text message. Conan tried to sneak a peek, but Sera Masumi noticed and turned away, holding her phone, refusing to let him see.

Conan pursed his lips; he knew without even looking that Sera Masumi was texting Sera Mary.

In fact, he and Yu had already deduced that the girl, who looked like a middle school student, was not the younger sister that Sera Masumi was talking about, but her mother, Sera Mary, or Akai Mary.

This Sera Mary is actually an MI6 agent, a fact deduced from her own self-proclaimed title of "sister from outside the domain."

How she ingested APTX4869 remains a mystery; all we can guess is that she was targeted by the organization.

On the streets of Tokyo.

Sera Mary sat in the back seat of a car, while two foreign men wearing sunglasses and black clothes sat in the front.

Sera Mary crossed her legs, looked at the message her daughter had sent, and smiled with relief: "The important British figure has been saved. Well done, so pure."

Little did she know that this important figure had been subjected to inhumane treatment before being rescued.

Shuichi Akai called to tell Yuya that he had found the car the prisoner had used to escape in the airport parking lot.

The kidnappers had already escaped, and all he could figure out was that the driver was male.

"Is the culprit male? If so, it matches John's testimony." Yuya pretended to analyze.

“In addition,” Yu added, “Chairman Alan is also missing. According to John’s testimony, he woke up once during the kidnapping, and there was someone with him. I guess that person was Chairman Alan.”

“Alan Mackenzie?” Shuichi Akai murmured the name.

Yuya was silent for a moment, then said, "Mr. Akai, it seems that the time has come when we have no other choice. We will set off for Shin-Nagoya Station immediately."

“I understand.” Shuichi Akai dropped his disguise, started the engine, and drove toward Shin-Nagoya.

Back with Sera Masumi and Conan, Yuya said, "You two, we need to get to Shin-Nagoya Station right away."

Sera Masumi asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Yuya explained as she ran, "The police who just arrived with the ambulance, didn't they say that most of the police force was sent to the airport because of the overtaking incident?"

Sera Masumi realized something: "That's right, which means that Shin-Nagoya is currently at a low point in terms of police force!"

Yuya and Conan jumped into the car, and Sera Masumi followed on her motorcycle.

Conan continued Yuya's words: "In the serial kidnapping case 15 years ago, the perpetrator of the third case was shot dead at the train station!"

Sera Masumi's expression shifted, and she guessed, "So, do you think the culprit will also open fire at Shin-Nagoya Station this time?"

“No,” Yuya said gravely, “I’m afraid it’s not a gun, but… ‘neon bullets’!”

The neon bullet, also known as the superconducting maglev train making its debut this time.

Sera Masumi's pupils suddenly contracted as a bold and terrifying idea surfaced in her mind. She slammed on the accelerator, and the motorcycle shot off instantly.

"Mio, let's hurry up!" Yuu urged.

Shiho Miyano calmly released the handbrake, stepped on the gas, and the sports car roared to life, closely following Sera Masumi.

Meanwhile, Judy, Carmel, and James also received a message from Shuichi Akai.

Judy frowned: "So, the final battle will take place on the maglev train?"

James nodded: "That's right, Akai has already headed to Shin-Nagoya Station, let's hurry over there too!"

"Understood!" Carmel replied, slamming the accelerator to the floor.

In an instant, all three parties headed towards Shin-Nagoya.

The nearest Shinkansen station to Nagoya Airport.

Eri Ishioka led the passengers back on the Shinkansen.

She suddenly noticed Ran Mouri pacing back and forth nearby, and went over to ask with concern, "Are you in trouble?"

Ran Mouri paused for a moment, then shook her head: "No, I was just waiting for someone."

Just then, Kogoro Mouri ran over and asked, "Ran, have you found Chairman Ran yet?"

Ran Mouri shook her head, then glanced at Ellie Ishigaki, who also shook her head, indicating that she had not received any notification that the person had been found.

Ran Mouri sighed: "It probably hasn't happened yet, but the maglev train will still depart as planned, and the opening ceremony will be held as scheduled."

"This is WSG's decision, and it's unlikely to change," said Ishioka Eri helplessly.

Then he asked, "How is Mr. John doing?"

Kogoro Mouri replied, "He's already been taken to the hospital. He's fine, just a few minor injuries."

Ran Mouri asked, puzzled, "Dad, don't you need to go with him?"

Kogoro Mouri waved his hand: "I already said, Mr. John has bodyguards with him. I'm only responsible for investigating the case I was hired to handle; I don't care about anything else."

Ran Mouri muttered to herself, "If someone can be kidnapped even with bodyguards, those two bodyguards must be unreliable."

However, Kogoro Mouri is right. He's paid to investigate the incident, so there's no need for him to do anything more, like personal protection.

Kogoro Mouri looked around and asked in confusion, "By the way, where's Conan? I can't find him anywhere."

Ran Mouri stiffened and quickly made an excuse: "Ah, he said he, Yuya, and Mio went back first and told us not to wait for him."

"What a troublesome brat, whose house is he staying at anyway?" Kogoro Mouri complained, then called to Ran Mouri, "Let's go back ourselves."

Ran Mouri breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, Dad."
