Chapter 194: Sweet and Cold Delivery (Part 2)

On Conan's side, the captain broke free from Haibara's arms, and his claws hooked the thread on Haibara's sweater.

"Ah, it ran away!" Ayumi was a little anxious.

Mitsuhiko: "If I just run out onto the road and get hit by a car, it will be bad!"

So several people chased the captain to a delivery truck. The cargo compartment was open, but the driver was not there. The captain jumped directly into the cargo compartment, and several people followed him in.

"It's so cold." Yuantai rubbed his hands.

Mitsuhiko looked around and said, "It should be a refrigerated truck."

At Ayumi's call, the captain meowed a few times, and several people saw it in the corner full of boxes.

Just when they were about to leave, two delivery staff suddenly came back. They closed the door of the truck directly and did not hear their shouts.

The three children were a little worried, but Conan comforted them: "It's okay, they haven't delivered all the items they need to deliver today. We can just go out when they open the door next time."

However, accidents always come suddenly. A thread had been caught on Huibara's sweater, and the thread got tangled in the bushes on the roadside. As the vehicle started moving, the sweater began to fall apart.

After the vehicle stopped, the three little ones couldn't wait to go out, but Huiyuan objected: "No, if you go out now, I will never forgive you!"

Conan, not knowing the truth, turned on the light on his watch: "What are you doing? Why are you only wearing underwear?"

"The thread of the sweater got caught on something and the whole sweater came undone, which is why it looks like this." Huiyuan blushed in embarrassment. "Please don't look at me like this."

Conan turned off the light with an embarrassed look on his face: "Sorry."

Because of this accident, when the delivery man opened the door again, everyone had to hide again, which also allowed them to hear the conversation between the two delivery men.

Words like "witness" and "no sound possible" made Conan suspicious, so he started an investigation.

At the same time, Mitsuhiko, who cared about Haibara, took off his coat and gave it to her, and Ayumi also handed the captain to her arms, so that Haibara would not feel cold for the time being.

Just when they thought they could leave, Conan's voice came over: "Before we entered the cargo compartment, there were already guests."

Several people looked in the direction where Conan was shining the light, and saw a corpse in the opened package.

"Oh no! It looks like those two delivery guys are murderers, and they're planning to use the air conditioning in this cargo box to preserve the body." The little girl tugged at her scarf.

Conan nodded. "The air conditioning will slow down the decay of the body, thus affecting the deduction of the time of death. So those two delivery people are now creating their own alibi."

"Also, there are impact marks on the corners of this box, and the sides are very dirty. I guess they come over and turn the box over every once in a while to prevent corpse spots from appearing."

Huiyuan hugged the captain and sat on the ground: "Wait a minute, that means, if those two people just now discovered us..."

"Yes, I'm afraid we'll all be trapped in this cargo compartment until we freeze to death."

As soon as these words were spoken, the three little ones started to panic.

"How could this be?"

"Can't you think of a solution?"

Yuan Tai directly suggested: "When the door opens, everyone should run out immediately."

Huibara shook her head. "It's impossible. If we were in normal condition, it would be fine, but now that our bodies are frozen, I don't think everyone can escape quickly enough."

Conan smiled confidently: "It doesn't matter, we will be responsible for transporting those two prisoners to the prison."

The little girl scratched her head: "But how are we going to subdue those two people?"

Conan replied: "Actually, we won't be arresting them ourselves. Instead, we'll have someone outside arrest them. They just need to use their cell phone to call Officer Takagi of the Metropolitan Police Department."

The three little ones showed their half-moon eyes: "I thought you would come up with more bizarre ideas, Conan."

"In this situation, this is the only way." Huibara hugged the captain to keep him warm.

"So, did anyone of you bring a cell phone? I left mine at home." The little girl asked everyone.

As a result, except for Mitsuhiko's phone which still had a little battery, no one else had their phone with them.

Conan took out the battery, warmed it with his hand, increased the usable power a little bit, and prepared to call Officer Takagi.

But at this moment, the sound of brakes was heard, which meant that the two deliverymen were about to open the cargo compartment. Everyone hurriedly closed the box containing the corpse and hid behind the pile of boxes.

Two delivery workers came in and changed the direction of the box containing the body. Everyone hid behind the box and quietly observed their actions.

As luck would have it, the captain made a cat's meow at this moment, which scared Huibara so much that she was at a loss. The little girl quickly used the cat-coaxing skills she learned from the apostles to calm the captain down.

[Little girl: All those cat-soothing tricks I've learned are finally working! Yay!]

[Entomologist: Speaking of which, there are quite a few kittens among the followers. Little Alice might consider changing one.]

[Little girl: Eh, but I've always used Miss Nightingale's follower.]

[Prisoner: Speaking of which, it's a shame that no more mini-supervisor series followers have been released.]

[Zhichangzhang: There are only a few followers based on survivors, alas.]

[Mercenary: Why can't followers be made into food?]

[Spellcaster: Naib, most minions are inedible.]

[Fire Investigator: If Naib eats while repairing the machine, the cipher machine will definitely become shiny.]

[Adventurer: Seems fine.]

Fortunately, the two delivery workers thought that they were just being suspicious and that was why they heard such sounds. During the conversation, they told their criminal acts and subsequent plans.

After the two left, Conan finally started to make a phone call, but Officer Takagi was on the plane with Inspector Megure at the time, and his phone was turned off and could not be connected.

So Conan had to call Dr. Agasa, but he didn't expect that Dr. Agasa was frying donuts and was delayed in answering the phone. In just this short period of time, the battery of his phone was exhausted.

"Damn, the battery is dead." Conan had a headache and turned to ask the little girl. "Alice, do you have anything with you that can contact Uncle Orpheus?"

"Well, because I changed into new clothes when I went out this time, I took off those things when I changed clothes..." The little girl rubbed her earmuffs embarrassedly.

Mitsuhiko suggested, "How about we warm up the battery again?"

"If all the electricity is used up, no new electricity will be generated no matter how warm it is."

"Then what should we do now?"

"Take out everything you have and put it in front of me. I'll try to figure out what I can do with it."

So everyone gathered together and took out the items they had on them one by one.
