The Black Detective of the Detective Conan World

……

On the train.

Dr. Date noticed Kogoro Mouri's presence, his expression somewhat complicated.

He had heard about this "mastermind detective" from some friends who had dealings in shady dealings.

This person's deeds are quite terrifying and horrifying, but he is said to have an excellent reputation in the underworld.

Some anonymous individuals commissioned him to "take care of" their targets, and he was incredibly efficient.

Often, if you place an order here, the task will be completed on the same day!

Moreover, it will never bring any suspicion or trouble to the client, and someone will always take the blame for the target's death.

If there's any downside, it's that it's expensive.

Generally speaking, the price of a Shark is around ten million yen.

However, this is definitely not a flaw of the mastermind detective, but rather his own.

He worked so hard to collect kickbacks, and all he's managed to save up is a little over ten million!

Therefore, he did not intend to entrust this notorious detective with the task, but instead planned to do it himself.

Save money.

He had meticulously planned the scheme; it was absolutely flawless, leaving no room for doubt, and would allow him to easily absolve himself of suspicion.

Thinking of this, a cold smile appeared on his face, exuding murderous intent.

Seeing that it was almost time, Dr. Date came over to Kogoro, pretending to be surprised to see a celebrity. He chatted with Kogoro for a few words, showed his face briefly, and then left in a hurry.

Judging by the time, the other "Hana no Machi Line" train is almost at a common stop along the way.

The two trams stopped at slightly different times, which shouldn't have allowed him to become a tram shark.

However, Dr. Date took out her phone and called the station staff, saying that she had left important items on the "Hana no Machi Line" and asked them to delay the train slightly at the common stop so that she could go and retrieve them.

The departure times for these sightseeing trams aren't very strict, and there aren't many tourists on board, so a slight delay of a few minutes won't bother anyone.

Sure enough, when the Yunoyama Line arrived at the common stop, the Hana no Machi Line train across the street had not yet departed.

Dr. Date quickly disguised himself and ran all the way to board another tram!

Naoto Hayashi, who was monitoring the whole thing, said, "You almost succeeded, you little rascal."

A little bee that had been following Dr. Date landed lightly in a hidden corner of the car and quickly swelled up, transforming into a beautiful woman in a tight-fitting bodysuit with long, straight black hair.

Moonlight clone!

She secretly watched as Dr. Date found the Dr. Utsumi and, taking him by surprise, gave him an injection!

It's unclear what medicine was in the syringe, but the robust Dr. Utsumi struggled a couple of times before foaming at the mouth and dying.

The Moonlight Clone took a deep breath and then let out a piercing scream.

"Ah!!! A shark!"

Chapter 115 The Mysterious Woman Actually Exists?

Dr. Date is numb.

He really put a lot of thought into this Shark Man project.

He lied to the doctor in the inner sea, saying that he would find an empty carriage to facilitate the transaction, and that he had carefully checked the area before the shark entered, and there were indeed no strangers around.

Once he completes the Shark Man arc, he can hide until the train arrives at the station, then blend into another train and pretend that he has always been on that train.

As soon as he swooped down, a woman screamed from behind him!

Where the hell were you hiding just now?!

How could my perfectly designed method fall apart in the very first step?!

Dr. Date turned his head sharply and saw a woman's figure leaning out from the connecting part of the carriage.

The woman's face was full of terror, but she stared at him without blinking.

For some reason, Dr. Date suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, and goosebumps rose on his arms.

That woman... she's not quite human.

He didn't know why this thought suddenly popped into his head; perhaps it was a surgeon's instinctive reaction.

Moreover, the woman only showed half of her body, giving off a feeling of a ghost peeking through a door in a horror movie.

Dr. Date sensed something was wrong and rushed forward to try and stop the woman.

But when he ran over, he found the connecting area between the carriages completely empty!

He searched around blankly, but didn't see anyone... Where was the person? Where was such a big, living person?

At this moment, a flurry of footsteps came from other carriages, clearly indicating that someone had heard the piercing scream and rushed over to check.

Dr. Date stamped his foot angrily, turned around and ran towards another carriage, intending to stall for as long as possible, as long as he could hold out until the train arrived at the station, that would be a victory.

Dr. Date had barely taken two steps when her heart skipped a beat.

He heard another voice mixed in with his own footsteps, and... it was right behind him!

What the heck is that?!

It's broad daylight right now!

Why do I feel like I've touched something dirty...?

Could it be that someone killed someone on this train?! And the resentment condensed and turned into a bound spirit?

Who the hell is so rude...

Oh, I did it too? That's alright then.

Dr. Date gradually stopped in her tracks, suddenly made up her mind, and turned to look!

There's nothing there!

There was movement of figures in another carriage; someone was clearly about to come over.

Dr. Date let out a breath, feeling slightly relieved, and turned around... only to see the face of the woman in black.

The woman said quietly, "I've got you."

Dr. Date let out a scream, feeling like her brain was about to explode!

Overwhelmed by fear, he collapsed to the ground, sliding backward on all fours, screaming, "Don't come any closer!"

Suddenly someone grabbed his shoulder, startling Dr. Date, who shuddered again and punched the person.

However, his fist was punched away by the man, who shouted, "You are... Dr. Date? Why are you dressed like this? Ah, you, you killed someone?!"

Dr. Date looked up blankly and saw that the person who came was a man in his forties with slightly thinning hair. He was also a doctor who had attended the doctors' association gathering yesterday, named Mitsuo Shirai.

Dr. Shirai's horrified gaze swept over him and the deceased before she released her grip and took a few steps back.

At this point, railway police arrived, and many passengers came over to watch.

Dr. Date stood there stunned for a moment, then looked back and found that the woman in black was gone.

He slowly lowered his head, his face full of bitterness.

That's it, I'm doomed.

……

After some time, both sightseeing trams arrived at their final stop.

Kogoro Mouri stretched and got out of the car, feeling his energy return to his body.

Xiao Lan smiled and said, "The scenery along the way is so beautiful, isn't it, Daddy?"

"Uh-huh," Kogoro replied dismissively, "It's just so-so..."

Conan was about to say something in support of Ran when he suddenly heard hurried footsteps, followed by several railway police officers running over, shouting, "A body has been found? Where is it?"

"In the Hana-no-Mai Line tram that arrived five minutes ago!"

"Hmm?" Kogoro and Conan immediately turned their heads, sensing the call of the case.

Kogoro gave a shout and ran ahead, with Conan following closely behind.

Xiaolan and Lin Zhiren exchanged a glance, then followed suit a beat later.

Soon, the group arrived at the carriage where the incident occurred and saw the deceased and the murderer who was caught on the spot!

When Kogoro Mori saw that the murderer was Dr. Date, his eyes widened in shock: "Impossible! That doctor was clearly on our train, how did he get here? And he even killed someone?!"

Conan was also startled, but he quickly recovered.

The two sightseeing trams take different routes, but they share a common stop in the middle!

If you can sneak over to the opposite tram at this station, hide afterward, and you can perfectly clear yourself of suspicion!

As for the staggered stopping times of the two trams, there should be a way to resolve that... Lie that there's a bomb on the opposite tram? No way, that would probably just require stopping the trams for evacuation...

While Conan was still pondering his method of committing the crime, the police in the train carriage began questioning him directly. The culprit seemed to be severely frightened, and with a pale face, he explained the entire operation plan in detail.

But as he finished speaking, Dr. Date's voice trembled as he said, "It was the woman in black... no, she was the ghost in black... the ghost in black ruined my plans..."

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

A passenger whispered to the police that the perpetrator was interrupted by a woman who screamed "Shark!" while he was committing the murder, which thwarted the killer's plan.

The woman seemed afraid of the killer and ran away after screaming.

The police said they could understand.

Many bystanders who accidentally witness a crime scene are silenced by the brutal killer.

If they can't be found, they can't be found. Anyway, the murderer was caught on the spot, and the evidence is conclusive.

Is the killer really that incompetent? After being caught, he claimed to be some kind of black-clad ghost...

His mental fortitude is lacking.

Conan looked serious.

When he heard Dr. Ida describe the black-clad ghost, several cases suddenly came to mind.

The woman in black who vanished into thin air in the mountain temple;

A female assassin in black exchanging fire with a killer on Nichiuri TV.

The black ghost mentioned by the prisoners in the ski villa;

And now, the black-clad ghost that Dr. Date mentioned...

Conan couldn't help but shudder.

I always feel like there's an invisible, dark ghost lurking around me...

No, no, no, believe in science; ghosts do not exist in the world.

So, it was actually a woman in black with a hidden presence.

Hmm? Could it be that she's connected to the Black Organization?

Also unlikely.

In these cases, one can sense that the woman in black is not the kind of outlaw thug like the one from the distillery, but rather seems to be on the side of justice; at least she repeatedly thwarted the criminals' shark plans...

Hmm? A sabotage plan?

A brilliant idea flashed in Conan's mind!

If we think about it from this perspective, then the recent trend of criminals around us going crazy and committing crimes with numerous flaws seems to make sense!

hiss!

Conan gasped.

Although it was all just his speculation, Conan trusted his intuition.

Clearly, some mysterious woman in black, or some secret organization, is sabotaging the criminal activity in the shadows!

But how do they discover criminal activity?
