A hoarse and somewhat manic voice slowly emanated from the loudspeaker.
"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen."
"You can call me the Joker!"
"I want to play a game with you."
"It's called the Death Countdown!"
"There are a total of one hundred Joker bombs on this train."
"Only one of them is real."
"It will detonate at ten past three."
"You need to find all the Joker bombs and stop the explosion in the remaining time."
"Good luck!"
.
As soon as the voice fell, the passengers on the Shinkansen were instantly dumbfounded.
The announcement played over and over again.
Some ordinary-looking people already wore expressions of panic.
"What? Joker bombs?!"
"I don't want to play this game."
"I want to get off this damn train."
....
The entire carriage descended into chaos.
"A final reminder, once the train stops, the bomb will detonate immediately."
At this moment, the voice of the broadcasting Joker rang out again.
It effectively cut off many people's escape routes.
As for Conan and his group, they were also a bit stunned.
"What kind of Joker is this? He's simply a villain."
Mouri Kogoro said with a grim expression.
He never expected that a train could harbor such a ruthless criminal.
And to threaten them with bombs!
"Dad, what should we do now?"
Mouri Ran also showed a worried expression.
Meanwhile, Conan, who had been searching for the fake bomb, did not expect that another Joker would appear.
"Damn it!!"
"Where is this criminal?!"
Conan immediately ran towards the broadcasting carriage.
However, when he arrived at that carriage,
he found only a tape recorder spinning continuously inside.
As for the crew members, they had long since collapsed on the ground.
It was clear that the suspect had already fled.
At least that's what Conan initially thought.
In reality, this tape recorder had been placed in the insect space by Daoyuan Shun earlier.
It was then controlled by insects to record the voice of a crew member.
Moreover, this crew member had been hypnotized and would have no memory of this.
It was a manufactured illusion.
At the same time, it also created an alibi.
One could say that even if Conan thought hard, he would never guess.
That is, the existence of some special abilities.
"What should we do now!"
Conan couldn't help but feel anxious; there were two bombs.
This was the Shinkansen, and time was running out.
Moreover, the entire carriage was engulfed in panic.
And where would this Joker place the Joker bombs?
Conan forced himself to calm down.
Police Headquarters
"What? A bomb has been installed on a running Shinkansen?!"
Officer Megure exclaimed in shock after receiving the report.
Surrounding officers were drawn over as well.
However, after hearing the content, each of their faces showed expressions of disbelief.
Because this was a major incident that could shake all of Neon.
Especially many officers were secretly lamenting.
Recently, due to the incident where over a hundred people died in a high-end apartment, they were already overwhelmed.
They had summoned the popular idol Konno Yoko numerous times.
Unfortunately, there had still been no progress.
And now, there was an additional Shinkansen bomb incident.
There was no choice; Officer Megure immediately chose to report it.
This matter was beyond his ability to handle.
How to board a moving train was already a problem.
This would also require helicopters and rerouting other trains.
If an explosion occurred and another train passed by, that would be another issue.
In short, this matter was extremely urgent.
Within ten minutes of reporting, the Police Headquarters reacted.
They coordinated the schedules of various trains.
Additionally, several helicopters were dispatched.
As for whether they could prevent the explosion, it depended on the people on the train.
Especially after hearing about this game called the Death Countdown.
Even the Police Headquarters determined that this so-called Joker had quite a taste for malicious fun.
Meanwhile!
Conan on the train also sensed the chaotic scene in the carriage.
"This can't go on like this."
Conan thought immediately.
As the time for three ten approached, the explosion was getting closer.
After thinking this, Conan picked up his voice-changing bowtie.
He began to use it for the train's broadcast.
"Everyone, please calm down."
"Quickly search for these so-called Joker bombs and throw them out the window."
"As long as we throw out all one hundred Joker bombs."
"Then the train will be safe!!"
"Otherwise, we will really have to wait for the Death Countdown."
....
Using an adult's tone, his voice spread throughout the entire train.
In fact, if there were only one bomb, it wouldn't be too bad.
Because the train was quite long.
As long as they stayed a distance away from the bomb, they might not even get hurt.
But the problem was that many people didn't know where the bomb was.
It could be in this carriage or the next one.
This caused many people to panic.
At this moment, Conan's voice managed to calm many passengers down a bit.
However, soon many people began to hurriedly search for the Joker bombs.
Even the Mouri family was no exception.
