Chapter 547 - Waiting

"Forgot everything?" Ash Plains was a little incredulous. "How can such a thing ......"

"It's been a long time," Qian Yu said. "A novel from more than 10 years ago, and he himself didn't like the ending of that novel."

"What do you mean?" Gray Plains frowned.

"In that novel, the detective was killed," Chiba replied after glancing nearby. "He seemed to charge a suspect, but he couldn't finish the charge because no evidence was found, and he was pushed off the platform and I suspect the suspect was pushed off the platform and died under the wheels of the train."

"......," Gray Plains frowned. The question is, will we do the same? ”

"So we're just here," Chiba nodded. "I'll suggest you go back later, I'll just be here alone and watch - the other party has a gun, and it won't be safe for you to be here."

"Will the other side shoot indiscriminately?" Gray Yuan Wai leaned forward slightly and asked. "The plot that could be written in the novel shouldn't include this kind of crazy random shooting, right?"

"Not included," Qian Yu shook her head. "The fact that the other party is using a pistol, and the act of firing indiscriminately means that he needs to reload, which means that it consumes precious escape time."

"Then, I won't be in any danger," Gray Yuan leaned back, his expression full of indifference. "Tell me, then, what's stopping me from being here?"

"......" Qian Yu bit his lower lip lightly - he knew that it was impossible for Gray Yuan Ai to encounter any risks, but he still couldn't suppress his worry. But in the end, he nodded, because he didn't feel he had the right to ask Gray Yuan to leave. "Okay...... Be safe, you have to understand how much you mean to me. ”

"Be safe, and you need to understand how much you mean to me." Gray Yuan Wai just said lightly.

"Still, you don't mind if we switch places, do you?" Qian Yu said suddenly. "Mr. Keitaro Izumo should be behind my back, which means that if someone wants to disadvantage him, you are now within his range, which is quite dangerous."

"You can come here, but I'm going to accompany you," Gray Plains said. "There's obviously no way you're going to dodge a bullet, so you think it's safe there, so I'm safe there."

"I have an auxiliary unit," Chiba reminded. "And you don't, which means you're slower than I am."

"Alright," Gray Plains nodded, agreeing with Chiba's statement. "But I can still sit on your side - because you see, if I sit in this corner next to where I am, I can't directly see where I can shoot out Keitaro, but I can see through the reflection of the glass.

"Okay," Chiba sighed. "But you have to make sure to stay there."

"Don't worry," Gray Yuan just smiled and nodded. "It's up to you to worry about it yourself - it's dangerous if you get distracted."

"......" Qian Yu suddenly showed a somewhat subtle expression.

"What's wrong?" Gray Plains asked.

"I ...... Something very subtle came to mind," Qian Yu said. "Mind if I sit next to you? I mean leaning over you. ”

Gray Plains moved to the glass, leaving a place for Chiba. "What, you're scared too?"

"I don't know if it's scared or not," Chiba replied as she moved deftly to Gray Hara's side. "Come to think of it, you're worried about my safety and don't care much about your own safety, and I'm concerned about your safety, but I'm a bit of a tightrope walker. So I thought maybe I should be a little bit more concerned about my own safety, and you should — you know what I mean. ”

"I know, I'll be very careful about my safety in the future," he said, and Ai Ashbara, who had been looking at Chiba, turned his gaze back to the direction of the glass, looking at the scene projected by Keitaro Izumo on the glass. "Be sure to keep yourself safe, too."

After speaking, Gray Yuan Ai suddenly found that it was probably because she had changed positions, and it seemed that her neck would be a little uncomfortable due to fatigue when she looked at the scene on the other side of the glass while maintaining a normal sitting position, so she turned sideways slightly to relieve the pressure on her neck.

“?” Qian Yu felt Gray Yuan's body, turned around to confirm the situation, and then shook his head with a smile. "It's not convenient to wait too long in this position, why don't you take a rest first, such as sleeping or something?"

"Aren't you sleeping?" Gray Yuan frowned, but quickly reacted. "Ah, your auxiliary unit is a good thing......"

"yes," Chiba nodded. "Do you want to lie down for a while?"

"Lie down for a while......" Gray Hara narrowed his eyes. Why don't I think you're going to let me lie on the back of my chair? ”

"What do you say?" Qian Yu glanced at the seat behind Gray Plains. "It's a good chair, but I'm afraid it's good for a good night's sleep—ah, there's no time to sleep."

Ai Gray Hara immediately knew the reason, because Keitaro Izumo, who seemed to be eating a luxurious supper with a reservation number by himself, suddenly stood up and walked in the direction of car No. 6.

"Let's go along." Qian Yu said to Gray Plains.

"Or else?"

……

Unlike the other dormitory cars, the second half of car 6 has a small lounge – and there is even a public paid shower room in that small lounge.

"I guess that's where the case is," Chiba said softly as she looked in the direction of Keitaro Izumo, half-lying in the soft armchair. "Anyway, I can't imagine him going back to sitting in the dining car.

"Yes," Gray Yuan agreed, lying beside him. "After all, it's so comfortable here, the stupid guy will sit back in the hard-seat dining car over there."

"Then let's wait here now," Qian Yu was now completely relaxed. "There are a lot of people here, and it's impossible for Ichiko to pay attention to everyone present, let alone care about us who are neither in their way nor next to Keitaro Izumo."

Saying this, Qian Yu moved his body slightly, but it triggered a response from Gray Yuan's mourning. "Hmm-"

"I'm sorry," Chiba smiled rather sweetly as he looked at Ashbara's hair, and his right hand gently patted Ashbara's right arm - his right arm was now on the back of Ashbara's head as a brace to put Ashbara's head at an angle where he could see Izumo Keitaro more comfortably, so he moved his body to cause Ashbara to make a somewhat dissatisfied sound. "Let's get some rest, it may be a long time before we wait for the guy we're waiting for."

"By the way, Dr. Asasa are they?" Ash Yuan Ai was about to close his eyes and take a little rest, but he thought of this question.

"Yes," Chiba nodded. "But they're sitting next to Keitaro Izumo, a dead end of where we're sitting right now—and accordingly, it's not easy for them to see the two of us."

At this time, Keitaro Izumo was sitting in an armchair at the other end of the carriage, sitting at a table facing the window, reading a newspaper. Conan and Dr. Asa sat at the table across from him, observing Keitaro Izumo through the glass under the cover of a newspaper. However, because Ash Hara and Chiba are only at the level of children, they have completely disappeared under the cover of the armchair with a backrest that is quite high for them, and they can only see Keitaro Izumo through the corridor without armchairs that runs through the carriage between the chairs on both sides, but they can't see Conan on the same side.

"Sleep," Chiba whispered after once again confirming that Conan couldn't see them. "Sleep, my darling."

The smile on Chiha's face became even more obvious when Gray Yuan's breathing eased and his head rested lightly on Chiha's shoulder.

Now, only he is awake, but he is not alone at all.
