| Vol 22 The 'Polaris' Train Case File 5 Revealing the disguise?! p. 1 Police - Inspector A: The victim's got his driving lisence and business card on him... His name is Chuwan Kaitaro... 56 years old... He seems to own a jewellry shop... Inspector B: Was he killed by a gun? Inspector A: Yeah, the witnesses said that the murderer shot the victm from behind... Inspector B: Yeah, I could tell by the looks of it. p. 2 Inspector B: But, where's the murderer after that? Male witness: He ran off in that direction... Femail witness: Then the security guards went after him... Kogoro: Yeah... before the security guards could catch up with him, he went pass my room... He broke the windoow in his rooom with his gun to escape... Insspector A: Who ARE you? Kogoro: What? You don't know me? Inspector B: Er... Where have I seen you before? The famous detective Mouri Kogoro? Inspector A: The one that's said to bring bad luck to people around him wherever he goes? Kogoro: *Are there rumours like that about me?* Inspector B: You were the only one who's seen the murderer after that? Kogoro: No, the three of us did. Me, my daughter and... Hey, where's that kid gone? Ran: He was here a minute ago! Inspector B: ... p. 3 Conan: *It's exactly the same! That strange speech of the murderer "It's different from what I've said" The murder on the train which happened a few days after that... Most of the things are the same... That's from my dad's fiction I read when I was little which he hasn't post to the magazine directors yet... It was such a long time ago, I can't really remember the details... But if I just give dad a call.... Oh where is he? p. 4 Conan: Eh? Ran: Conan! Here you are! Conan: Ran... Ran: Hey, the inspectors were looking for you! Conan: Oh... Kogoro: Haven't I just told you that? p. 5 Kogoro: The murderer ran pass my room like this.. He blown the window open after he opened the door... He made 2 shots into my direction then escaped... Inspector B: So you witnessed the whole process of escape? Kogoro: Yes! Inspector B: But generally, murderers wouldn't drop their guns while escaping... And the gun is still loaded... Wouldn't he be in some other rooms instead? Kogoro: That's impossible! I ran after him until he runs into the room and slams the door shut! Inspector B: Is that all you saw? Kogoro: Eh? Inspector B:The corridor was very dark at that time... And he shot in your direction, you were all tensed... p. 6 Kogoro: Oi, oi... Mr Inspector... Conan: *Yeah... the door was certainly shut... But as one of the inspectors has said, we didn't see the murderer jump out of the train.. Also, it's very unusual to leave your gun when escape... And why didn't he lock the door instead of only closing it? Even though that will take some time... But the strangest thing is that why does this case follows exactly how dad's story goes? And dad's lost the draft by accident...* Inspector B: We're not sure if he's escaped to some other rooms... Inspector A: Let's go and check the other rooms out! Let's start with this one... Inspector B: Er... Inspector A: Eh? There's no one in the room? p. 7 Chuwan's wife: What the hell is going on!! Do you know what time is it now!! Inspector B: Sorry... I'm from the Hokkaido Police Force! There's a murder on this train... Chuwan's wife: Murder? Kogoro: Didn't you notice anything? It just happened next door... Chuwan's wife:... No... Now just what is it? Kayu: Yorn... What's going on? Inspector A: Oh, there's... Kogoro: Someone was shot to death... It happened in the main room of the train... The guy's na,e is Chuwan Kaitaro, he owns a jewellry shop. p. 8 Chuwan's wife: W..what??!! Kayu: It can't be! Chuwan's wife: Why? Why is my husband...? Kogoro: Husband? Inspector B: Anyway, please allow me to check your room... Eh? Why's a gun here? Chuwan's wife: It's for the shooting game tomorrow in Hokkaido... Inspector B: There ain't anyone... Inspector A: Right, your room's next. Kayu: OK! Inspector B: Is there a second floor? What a massive train! Kayu: Here it is... p. 9 Inspector B: Eh? What's in that long thin bag? Kayu: Oh that's for carrying fishing eqipments around... Boss and his wife has different hobbies, she likes fishing... Usually I'm the one to carry the eqipment around for her... Inspector B: Then it's next door... Eh? It's empty! Kayu: This is boss' room... Did he really get killed? Inspector B: Yes... I need to interview you in a minute... Right, let's see the one on the other side of the stairs... Oi, oi... just no one opens their door as soon as they hear someone knocking it... p. 10 Inspector B: OI! It's the police! Just open the door!! Chinyi: Eh? What's up? Inspector B: It's the police! I need to check your room. Eh? What's that on your bed? Chinyi: Oh, that's the bamboo sword... It kind of broke, so I need to fix it for my Kendo match in Sapporo tomorrow... What's going on anyway? Inspector B: There's a murder on the train... Hey, we can't find any clues like this! Tell all the others to go and check every single room on the train! Inspector A: Yes sir! Shicho: Why's it so noisy out here? Inspector B: Eh? p. 11 Shicho: I was woke up by you noisy people even I was drunk.. Inspector B: Where's your room? Shicho: On the second floor! Inspector B: OK, I'm going in..... Shicho: Oi, Oi!! Inspector B: Eh? Shicho: You can't just go into my room! Inspector B: It's only golf equipment? Shicho:Oi! Stop that! Or I'll call the police! Inspector B: I AM the police! Anymore whining? Some male passenger: Have you found the murderer yet? Inspector B: If he was so easy to find, you wouldn't have called for the police then! Some male passenger: Come to think of it, there's a strange woman on the train... Inspector B: Woman? Some female passenger: Oh yeah! She wears her sun glasses all the time, she seems to know something about the case... p. 12 Meiji: Were you talking about me? Some male passenger: Yeah, that's her! Inspector B: What? Meiji: I left the main hall and went to the toilet... I've only seen that man for something like 3 seconds... Inspector B: Excuse me madam... Where is your room? Meiji: Here it is... Inspector B: Is that handbag the only luggage you've got? Meiji: Yes, I'm going horse-riding in Hokkaido... Conan: *Horse-riding?* I've seen on the tele that you need to wear them helmet and weird trousers for horse-riding... Meiji: Oh... you mean horse-riding trousers? You know a lot about that, don't you? Conan: Wow! You've got the whole set of equipment! How cool! Meiji: You need to have all them equipment little boy! p. 13 Conan: Does that mean you need to prepare all the equipment yourself? Meiji: Yes... If they get old, you need to buy some new ones... Like the whip and gloves... Conan: Em... Security guard: The other passengers are getting really fed up! Get we stop the train yet? Inspector B: No, not until we've checked every room on the train. What if they throw the evidence away?! Kogoro: Well, wouldn't it be better to search the tunnel? Inspector B: Humph, I've allready done that... Police: S..Sir!! The tu... inside the tunnel... Inspector B: Eh? Found anything? Police: There's a dead man's body!! Inspector B, Conan, Kogoro: What?! p. 14 Inspector B: He was killed by something real hard hitting his head... It probably happened when he escaped... He didn't jump out at the right time... What an idiot.. Have you seen his man before? Kogoro: Yes... Male passenger: I.. I think so. Inspector B: Eh? Fake moustarche? And a wig? He... he is... Chigan Anji?! p. 15 Kogoro: Hey, you've mentioned him before... Inspector B: Yes, that robber of a jewellry shop in Tokyo that didn't take anything.... They used to be in a group of three to do all sorts of crime... But they've been very unactive... I wouldn't expect seeing him here... Inspector A: Hey! The other victim owns the shop that Chigan robbed! Inspector B, Kogoro: What? Inspector B: Right, we've confirmed the victim's identity... Go and tell the driver it's ok to get on with the journet... Inspector A: Yes sir! Conan: ... p. 16 "Du...... du........" "We are unable to contact the number you are calling at the moment... Please phone back later..." Meiji: ? Eh? Little boy..? Have you got something to say to me? Conan: Yeah, I want to ask you something! Your disguise is excellent! Meiji: Em? Conan: You said you were going horse-riding, but that's a lie! What's your real reason for taking this train? Meiji: ...Hey, little boy. What are you on about? Conan: Ha! The horse-riding stuff I told you about earlier on isn't true... Meiji: Eh? Conan: You don't even know the basic general things, just how can you ride a horse like this? I know you're hiding it, Madam... You can't fool me! |
