Murder Train to Paris 西村京太郎 1425Words 2018-03-16
The Place de la Bastille is just outside the metro. The 52-meter-high monument commemorating the French Revolution stands majestically on the square. There are also tourists in the square. At one corner of the square there is a new opera house that has just opened. Where did Yayoi Shimazaki, dressed as a baseball boy, escape to? The roads leading to Batudi Square extend in all directions. If you walk along Avenue Amway IV from here, you will end at the Seine River. If you walk along the Rivoli Avenue, you will arrive at the Louvre just left.Extending further southeast, it is the starting station of TGV - Gare de Lyon.

If it were in Tokyo, a cordon would be set up immediately. Pierre also ordered his detectives to set up a cordon in this area, just like Totsukawa thought. Totsukawa also worried about the safety of Daikoshi who was attacked.Pierre said that a criminal police officer had been left in that car, so there was no need to worry. On one side of Place de la Bastille is the 3rd arrondissement of Paris. Pierre said, let's set up a search headquarters at the police station in this district. Because it is necessary to concentrate intelligence there.Totsukawa and Kamei followed Pierre to the police station in the 3rd district.

However, Shimazaki Yayoi was not caught until the sun went down.I'm afraid she has already broken through the cordon. Constable Pierre extended the cordon network to the entire Paris region. At 6 p.m., it was learned that Dachao and Miura had safely returned to the Moridian Hotel. "Two criminal police officers have been deployed in the hotel to prevent the murderer from attacking again." Pierre said. "We also withdrew from the hotel, because we still have to ask Dai Viet about something." Totsukawa said. Officer Bart of the NYPD also asked to go, so the three took a taxi back to the Moridian Hotel.

It was past 7:00 pm when we arrived at the hotel.At the Japanese restaurant called Yamato on the first floor, Totsukawa and Kamei had a real dinner. Haven't eaten Japanese food for 5 days.While they were eating Japanese food such as sashimi, tofu, and dried seaweed, Ogoshi and Miura entered. Dai Yue found Totsukawa and the others, and sat at the table next to them. "Thanks to you, I was saved again this time." Dai Viet said. "This is because the murderer fired in a hurry, and the shot missed. As long as you are in a hurry, the bullets usually go up." "I never thought that she would shoot there. It is generally believed that she would shoot among the crowd in some famous square."

"Yes." "If it is in the subway, there is a precedent of TGV, the murderer may shoot in the car. But I never thought that she would shoot from the platform." "Why is Yayoi Shimazaki waiting on the platform of Batudi Station? I don't think she knows which train you take." Kamei asked Ogoshi very politely. Dai Viet put the sashimi in his mouth and said: "I don't know either. But it's conceivable. She knows when I take the subway. Because I said publicly that if you take the subway after seeing the flower market, of course the Louvre station is the closest. This station is the station of subway line 1. Moreover, Line 1 is the oldest subway line. If you want to take the subway, you must take the oldest line. She knows this, so she has been waiting at Batudi Station. And, I take the Air France flight I always fly first class, she is sure, and I will be in the first class car on the subway, so I am waiting in the middle of the platform."

"That makes sense. However, the subway in Paris does not open the doors until passengers get on and off. If the doors are not opened in Bastille, what will she do? Opening the doors by yourself and shooting them will take time and will be blocked by us." Found and caught her." Kamei said. "I can't say that. I think it's up to the police to judge." Da Yue frowned. "It's the Middle Eastern guy" Totsukawa suddenly called out. "Ah, that man! That passenger who got off at Batudi." Kamei said. "Yes, that's him! If he got money from Yayoi Shimazaki and was instructed by her, wouldn't it be easy? He just needs to follow Okoshi, take the subway together, open the door and get off at the bus station where she is waiting, and everything will be fine Well, he got the francs, didn't he?"

"She may have stayed at that Middle Eastern man's house last night." Kamei said. Listening to their discussion, Miura interrupted: "Do you think the Middle Eastern man was an accomplice?" "This judgment is more reasonable." Totsukawa said. "It's not going to be easy to find this guy." "Yes. It is also very difficult to ask the Paris Police Department for help. I don't remember what he looks like at all. It must be a mistake to arrest people according to the appearance of a Middle Easterner." Totsukawa shrugged his shoulders.

At this moment, in an apartment located on Rue Latin on the left bank of the Seine, an explosion suddenly occurred in a room.
