Chapter 1229: The Bandit Hitchhiking
January 19, Sunday, early morning, heavy snow, Gunma Prefecture Mountain Highway.
After listening to Conan's words, Dr. Ali smiled easily and said, "No way, this must be God telling Conan not to do such a dangerous thing. I think we can sit in the car and wait slowly."
Before the words were finished, a light appeared in the distance, and quickly approached here, it was a car.
"Great." Conan excitedly pulled Dr. Ali to stop the car in the middle of the road, and stopped the car smoothly.
It was an imported Baojie with the cab on the left side, and there were two people inside. A man in his twenties was driving, and a woman in her twenties was sleeping in the back seat.
Dr. Ali said: "Well, my car has a flat tire..."
Conan asked directly: "We want to go back to Tokyo, can you give us a ride?"
"Tokyo?" The man looked at the woman who got up.
"Okay, anyway." The woman said.
The man asked Dr. Ali: "Uncle, are you familiar with the roads around here?"
"It's okay." Dr. Ali said.
The man said: "Then the uncle will sit in the co-pilot, and the little brother will sit in the back."
"I'm really sorry." Dr. Li got into the car.
Conan opened the car door and smelled a smell of smoke. He knew that it was because of the cold weather. He didn't open the window when he smoked. Mao Li often did this kind of thing.
"I'm sorry, big sister, I made you sleep because of the noise." Conan got into the car.
"It's okay, I'll just lie down for a while," the woman said.
The car started, and Conan felt the good performance of the car, and couldn't help asking: "It's great! Is this a foreign car, is it your car, big brother?"
"Well, I'm a little tired of driving, and I'm thinking of buying a new car recently." The man said casually.
Dr. Ali said: "Then you must be very rich, because this car is very expensive."
"It's okay." The man said.
The woman said anxiously: "He doesn't look well dressed, but he is the heir of a big company."
At this time, a truck came head-on, honking its horn, and the man hurriedly drove to avoid it.
Conan in the back seat suddenly fell down on the seat, but he heard a sound from the trunk of the car.
"It's so dangerous, so dangerous, the snow-covered road is really scary," the man said.
"Don't worry, safe driving is the most important thing." Dr. A Li wiped off his sweat.
"Hey, did you hear any strange noises just now?"
"Is there?" the woman said, "I didn't hear anything."
"Probably the luggage piled in the trunk overturned." The man said, "Don't mind." He said with a cigarette in his mouth.
"Hey! Don't smoke!" The woman shouted hastily, "Did you forget? I hate the smell of cigarettes!"
"Ah?" said the man, "I'm sorry, I forgot." He put away the cigarette.
Um? Conan was a little puzzled, what's going on? Have you ever smoked before?
At this time, Dr. Ali found a fork in the road, and quickly pointed it out, "Turning left is the direction of Tokyo."
The man replied: "Okay, I got it." Then he turned to the road to the left.
Seeing that the man turned on the wiper switch first, and then turned on the turn signals, Conan frowned.
The man turned off the wipers, "Ah, the snow has stopped, I think we should be there before four o'clock."
"Speaking of which, I would like to thank you all." Dr. Ali said with a smile.
"Nothing." The man asked, "Speaking of which, why did you come to Gunma County? Did you bring your grandson to ski?"
"Uh, about the same." Dr. A Li said with a dry smile.
"That's great." The man praised.
At this time, an oncoming car passed by the car.
The woman accused: "Hey, can you concentrate on driving!"
"well,
The man defended himself, "Sure enough, you shouldn't walk on the road covered with snow." "
It was strange, Conan found that the man had been walking along the lanes in the road.
At this time, another car came head-on, honking its horn, and the man hurriedly drove to avoid it.
"Be careful, okay? A lot of cars have been honking at us since just now." The woman yelled, "Are you really good at driving?"
"It's really long-winded," the man retorted, "Didn't I say that I'm not good at driving on snowy roads."
"Speaking of which, big brother," Conan said, "this car hasn't been inspected yet, so drive more carefully."
"Ah?" the man said, "Understood."
"By the way, this car is about to be inspected." Conan asked, "Is it February?"
"Uh," the man froze for a moment, "probably."
"Hey? Don't you remember?" Conan said, "Isn't there a '2' sign on the windshield in front of the window? That sign is called a vehicle inspection sign, and it uses numbers and colors to remind people when to go to the car. Inspection, the color of your logo is from this year, so you should go for a vehicle inspection before February this year."
"Ah," the man said, "I remembered, I just received an advance notice for a vehicle inspection this month."
The woman asked: "But little brother, when did you see that sign, it should be covered by snow?"
"As long as there is a car coming from the opposite side, you can see it," Conan said with a smile. "Through the light of the car lights, you can see the numbers on the surface."
While talking, a car drove towards him. Under the light, a "2" appeared on the vehicle inspection sign.
"This, this..." The man and woman were stunned together.
"Ah, that's right," Conan said, "because the '2' seen from the back should actually be '5'." Then he pretended to be puzzled and said, "But it's strange, there are still more than three months left. Well, brother, how did you receive the notice to do the vehicle inspection? Why is that?"
"Ah, that, that's because..." The man couldn't explain clearly for a moment.
"Ah, didn't I tell you just now?" The woman said, "He is a rich young master, so those things are left to others to do. He just talked about it casually. In fact, he himself never I didn’t pay attention to the time of the vehicle inspection.”
"That's right." The man said quickly, "I don't care about these things."
At this time, a fork in the road arrived, and Dr. A Li said quickly: "Turn right, turn right."
However, the car still went too far, the man stopped the car and complained: "Really, it's all my little brother, you are too wordy."
Dr. A Li said apologetically, "I'm sorry, but this kid's curiosity is just too strong."
The man looked to the rear left, then quickly turned his head to the rear right, then slowly shifted the gear to reverse, and turned on the wipers, reverse lights, and direction lights one after another.
Seeing this, Conan became more and more sure that there was a problem.
Shortly after the car entered the road, a road inspection appeared ahead, and Conan found that the man and woman became nervous.
The car stopped at the road inspection, and the man handed over his driver's license. Conan discovered that the leader of the team was actually a mountain village police officer.
"Huh?" Officer Yamamura saw Dr. Ari and Conan, "Isn't this Dr. Ari and Conan? Why are you here?"
"My tire has blown out." Dr. Ali said with a wry smile.
"Officer Yamamura, aren't you a criminal police officer? Have you been transferred to the traffic section?" Conan asked.
"What do you mean, I'm catching bad guys, understand?" Shancun police officer said, "Three gangsters robbed a jewelry store, so we set up road inspections everywhere."
"Three people?" Conan asked in confirmation.
"That's right, those three robbers wore masks. After robbing a jewelry store, they abandoned the stolen car used in the crime in the mountains, and then disappeared without a trace." The mountain village police officer laughed, "But that One of the three was injured, so I don't think it would have gotten too far."
"Injured?" Conan asked in confirmation.
"It's like this." The mountain village police officer smiled, "I was patrolling nearby when I got the news, and then the robbers who ran out of the gem shop were hit by me, so I went up and took out my gun and shouted at them , 'Stop, or I'm going to shoot'." He made gestures as he spoke.
"Wow, so handsome." Conan flattered.
"But they didn't listen to the warning, so I fired a shot to scare them." The mountain village police officer was a little embarrassed, "I didn't expect to hit one of the prisoners' legs."
"..." Conan was speechless, what a terrible marksmanship.
"Oh," the mountain village police officer said with a sad face, "I still don't know how to write the shooting report."
"Cough, cough." The police officer next to him couldn't take it anymore, and motioned to work quickly.
The mountain village police officer came to his senses, "Cough, in short, they may have driven other vehicles that were prepared in advance, or robbed the cars passing by on the road and fled. Have you seen such suspicious guys?"
"Ah, I know," Conan exclaimed, "it's the guy in someone else's car, isn't it?"
"That's us." Dr. A Li said, "My car broke down in the mountains, so please let this gentleman who happened to pass by give us a ride."
"That's what happened." The man said nervously.
"By the way, Mr. Ali, what about your car?" the woman asked, "Is the key hanging on the car?"
"Yeah," Dr. Ali said, "I called the dealership, and they said they wouldn't be able to drive away in the morning, so I hung up the keys on the car."
"Ah," the woman yelled, "isn't your car very dangerous? If those robbers find out, they might drive away. Even if the tire blows out, you can drive."
"Well, it's very possible," Shancun Police Officer touched his chin and said, "There is a plot of driving a car with a flat tire in the movie."
"So, you don't have to worry about us," the man said hastily, "You'd better go and have a look at that car."
The woman said, "It's a yellow Beetle, it's easy to find."
"It's strange," the mountain village police officer touched his chin and said, "I suddenly realized that I seem to have heard your voices somewhere."
"You think too much, officer." The woman said nervously.
"Yes, officer." The man said nervously.
The mountain village police officer said: "Excuse me, please get out of the car."
"Officer, are you suspicious of us?" The man asked nervously.
"Okay, let's get out of the car, we don't have any gunshot wounds on our bodies." The woman said, and then got out of the car with the man.
The two got out of the car, and Conan found some water stains on the ground where the woman was sitting in the car, and laughed, as expected.
The mountain village police officer looked carefully at their legs and found no gunshot wounds, so he said, "Excuse me, please get in the car, and be careful on the road."...
Dr. Ali's home.
"Ding..." The phone rang.
Hui Yuan, who fell asleep watching TV, was woken up, yawned, and looked at the time, but it was not yet four o'clock in the morning, so the veins came out, which bastard called at this time!
At this time, the call entered the recording state, "Ah, I am a mountain village police officer in Gunma County, Dr. Ali, I found your car. Although you said that you have asked the car dealer to come and drive the car in the morning, I am afraid that the car will continue to drive away." Putting it on the mountain road like this, it might be driven away by fleeing robbers, so I called a tow truck to take the car away first, so please come to the Gunma Prefectural Police Station to pick up the car. That’s it.”
Gunma Prefecture? Haibara regained consciousness a bit, and found that Dr. Ari hadn't come back. He immediately understood that Dr. Ari drove Conan to Gunma County, but the car had a flat tire.
Haibara turned on the tracking function of the glasses, but last night after Conan was out of the tracking range, it turned off.
Haibara found out that Conan was within 20 kilometers, and in Tokyo, so he couldn't help laughing, he deserved it, he didn't sleep at night, and went to meddle in his own business, but when he came back, he had to go back again take the car. ...
On the other side, the black organization's Tokyo base.
"Master Vodka, are you going to drive out?"
"Yes, there is a deal."
"Just you?"
"You don't need to bother big brother with such trivial matters. Don't be naughty, and open the door quickly."
"Then you go slowly."...
After a while.
"Master Qin, Gin and Wine!"
"Open the door."
"Yes Yes."……
On the other side, Conan's place.
Back in Tokyo, Conan asked the man to take them to Meguro Station on the Loop Line.
"Meguro Station?" the man said, "Are you going to take the tram there? I'll just take you home."
"No, no need," Dr. A Li said with a dry smile, "We live nearby."
"This is really convenient." The man said.
"You live in the Meguro area," the woman said with a smile, "I can't tell, you are also rich."
"It's, it's okay." Dr. A Li said with a dry smile. ...
At four o'clock in the morning, in the car.
Dr. Ali whispered to Conan: "Hey, are you really going?"
"That's right," Conan laughed, "but there's one more thing to settle before that."
"Hey," the man said to Dr. Ali, "please don't whisper in my car."
"Ah, I'm so sorry." Dr. A Li said with some embarrassment.
"Really." The man lit a cigarette casually.
The woman cried out when she saw it, "Hey, didn't I tell you not to smoke!"
"Sorry, sorry, I'll throw it away right away." The man said as he wanted to open the window.
Dr. A Li stopped and said, "Hey, you can't throw it out of the car window, you have to throw it in the ashtray."
"Oh, oh." The man clumsily opened the ashtray on the car and pressed the cigarette into it.
At this time, Dr. A Li found that there were actually a lot of change in the ashtray, "Hey, isn't it dirty when you put the change and the ash together? Even if you are rich, you will be punished for doing so."
"There's no other way." Conan smiled confidently, "Because this car doesn't belong to them at all."
"Ah!" Dr. Ali and the men and women in the car were taken aback.
"You, what did you say?" Dr. A Li asked, "What's going on here?"
"The owner of this car doesn't smoke. In order to pay the change conveniently, he simply used the ashtray to store the change." Conan said, "But this big brother didn't notice this. Small change, but still used it as an ashtray until we got in the car."
"What are you talking about, little brother," the woman argued, "the change was put in there on purpose because I hate him smoking."
Conan said: "No, I smelled cigarettes when I got in the car, so you didn't stop the big brother from smoking before we got in the car, but then you did."
"You..." The woman was speechless.
Conan said: "There is still a lot of evidence to prove that this car does not belong to the big brother. He said that he was tired of driving, but he is not used to driving on the left, and he often drives unconsciously to a place where he can see the driver of the opposite car clearly. On the branch road in the road, the cars on the opposite side often honk their horns in protest."
"Also, when reversing, he involuntarily turned to the left rear, and when he shifted gears, he acted like a novice, indicating that he was not used to shifting gears with his right hand."
"In addition, he didn't turn on the turn signal when turning, but turned on the wipers first. That's because he forgot that the control levers of imported cars and domestic cars are in opposite positions."
The woman argued strongly: "It's just that he is not used to it. He said he was tired of it for the sake of face. If he said he couldn't, it would be too embarrassing."
"Don't quibble." Conan said with a smile, "Actually, I already know your true identities."
"Real identity?" Dr. Ali asked.
Conan said: "There is a puddle of water on the ground where the eldest sister is sitting."
"That, that was just accidentally spilled when drinking water." The woman argued.
"That's not right." Conan said, "Actually, I only realized it after listening to the words of the mountain village police officer. The water stains are blood stains washed by snow."
"Bloodstains!" Dr. A Li was taken aback, and the expressions of both men and women changed drastically.
"That's the blood left by the companion who was shot in the leg, right?" Conan said, "In order to evade the road inspection, he himself is hiding in the trunk now to avoid people's eyes and ears."
"Companion?" Dr. A Li asked incredulously, "Could it be..."
"That's right," Conan said with a confident smile, "The three of them are robbers from the gem shop that the police are looking for."...
