Gao Yuanyuan said: "Magic has many dangers. I didn't think much about it at that time. I just returned to my hometown in the UK after finishing my further studies.
"When I got home, I received a mountain of mail. And among the many letters-"
He touched his pocket and took out an old notebook: "It is lying quietly inside."
"After opening it, I found that every page contained the magic tricks carefully chosen by Reiko Konmiya - I thought my skills had reached the peak, but only after seeing her ideas did I know what a true genius is.
.”
Jiang Xia looked at the notebook curiously: "I remember the hotel manager said that after Miss Jin Gong died, her magic notebook disappeared, and it was suspected that it fell into the hands of her apprentices - so there are two copies of this notebook?
"
"That's right." Gao Yuanyao glanced at the "Joker" opposite, "The book that the four of them snatched away should be the backup she left behind."
He ignored the colleague with wandering eyes and looked down at the notes in his hand with some nostalgia: "After receiving this note, I came to Tokyo and went to watch the Fantasy Magic Troupe where several disciples of Reiko Konmiya were.
's performance.
"I thought this was going to be a recognition between brothers... But who knew that what I saw was one familiar magic trick after another - they were all recorded in that notebook.
"What is surprising is that several members claimed that these magic tricks were their own creations, and did not mention the deceased Reiko Konmiya at all."
"It's easy to guess what happened next." Gao Yuanyuan gently touched the note in his hand, "Obviously, my mother was murdered by several of her members, and then they divided up her life's achievements.
"
"?" Maya Hashimoto glanced competitively at this future colleague who was not sure whether he could join the job smoothly: Wait, at this time, shouldn't we first suspect that the four of them just picked up the notes? Why did they jump directly to the topic?
Murder? Are you good at acting? You're really embarrassing to Uzuo-sama.
Gao Yuanyuan suddenly raised his head and looked at him.
Maya Hashimoto: "?!"
Fortunately, the person on the other side seemed to just have a casual glance. Soon, the magician who exuded a dangerous aura was immersed in his memories again: "Of course, this is just a guess on my part. You can't give it to me just because of this."
People are convicted. So in order to confirm this, I applied for a manager job and got involved in the fantasy magic troupe.
"Finally one day, when several magicians were chatting in the background, I passed by the door and heard what I wanted to know.
"——The leader said like a joke. He didn't expect that he was so lucky. They just wanted to scare Reiko Konmiya a little, so they called her up to the ceiling. But who knew that the pedal on the ceiling suddenly collapsed, leaving them in vain?
Picked up the magic notebook."
"Mermaid Ji told her that she heard from Sakuraba that the 'Joker' had tampered with the ceiling beforehand, so..."
"Enough!"
"Joker" interrupted the conversation sternly. He first glared at Gao Yuanyao, but soon turned around with a guilty conscience under the other person's gaze, and turned to the soft persimmon in his eyes.
"Are you policemen and detectives just freeloaders? How long do you want this murderer to keep talking nonsense? Arrest him quickly!"
With that said, "Joker" took out an identical old notebook from his arms. He took a deep breath and turned to Gao Yuanyao again: "How long are you going to keep talking about this broken notebook - take it!"
He threw it away as if it was bad luck and smashed the notebook at Gao Yuanyuan's feet.
"???" Officer Sato didn't expect that the magic note was actually on him. The corner of her eye twitched and Yusen said, "Since this thing is in your hands, it seems that Gao Yuanyuan didn't lie - 5 years ago,
Did you really murder the female magician?"
"Clown" chuckled: "What murder, this is obviously a gift given to me by the teacher - to say the least, even if I really moved the ceiling, so what? I am a prop master, how can I clean up the props?
It's normal. If you want to blame it, it's the teacher herself, who made her run to the ceiling?"
Officer Sato was about to be furious at this shameless guy: "You...!"
Next to him, Gao Yuanyuan turned a deaf ear to the dispute - when the magic notebook flew over, the pages were fluttered by the wind, and he vaguely saw some unfamiliar pictures.
He knelt down and picked up the note, flipping through it several times to the page he just saw. Looking carefully, Gao Yuanyuan's eyes widened in surprise.
He suddenly smiled and closed the notebook again.
"Okay, officer." Gao Yuanyuan looked at Officer Sato who was pulling the "clown" angrily, "Let the past be bygones. Since Mr. Sakonji escaped my magic, I will not continue to pursue it.
.”
Maya Hashimoto: "..." Won't continue to pursue the case? Isn't this nonsense? Otherwise, would you still want to stab someone to death in front of Jiang Xia? I think you haven't tasted the feeling of throwing a stick.
...but for such a big thing, do you really give up when you say you give up?
He looked at this second-generation genius magician suspiciously, feeling that the matter was not over yet.
Others also looked over in surprise, not expecting Gao Yuanyao to be so generous.
Under the gaze of everyone, Gao Yuan shook the note in his hand: "Speaking of which, Mr. Sakonji, can you give me this note? After all, it is also my mother's relic."
"Of course it's yours if I throw it to you." Sakonji snorted coldly, "I have already firmly remembered the above content in my mind. If you want this unlucky thing that is related to the dead, give it to you."
"Really?" Gao Yuanyao laughed. He glanced at the police car parked outside the hotel and said proactively, "Officer, let's go - don't worry, as long as I can get this notebook back, I will be satisfied.
I will cooperate with your investigation."
"Ah? Oh, okay." The two policemen had hated this cunning prisoner not long ago, but now after hearing the other's story and seeing his honest and cooperative appearance, they actually felt a little more sympathetic.
Upon hearing his words, the two of them nodded and prepared to handcuff the person onto the train and take him back to the city.
The murderer was caught and the case ended.
Maya Hashimoto couldn't believe it: "..." Wait, this kid really didn't even flutter, and was just taken away like that??
"I really don't know whether to be happy or worried... In theory, it's a good thing not to have to work with such a dangerous guy, but in fact, I have a mission, how on earth can I find someone who can satisfy Lord Uzo better than him?
