When those footsteps went away, Jiang Xia jumped down from the roof and landed lightly.
He pulled out Okiya Subaru from the ruins, who was afraid to speak, and patted the ashes on his body: "Is everything okay?"
Okiya Subaru: "..." Usa, is it Usa... Bang!
"..." Hui Yuan Ai raised his head and glanced at this strange graduate student who suddenly hit him, and silently pulled Jiang Xia away from him, "Is he okay?" She meant her brain.
Jiang Xia sighed and whispered back to her: "Maybe it's just a little adult trouble."
Okiya Subaru didn't pay attention to the two people muttering next to him. He recalled the experience just now in his mind. He felt that it was not Usa who was causing trouble in the dark anyway - those people happened to be walking towards the prop warehouse during their inspection. Conan suggested
They hid in the box. Jiang Xia gave the box to him. The female assistant cursed the prop master on the spur of the moment. The prop master happened to stop next to the magic box and kicked the box next to him on the spur of the moment...
A series of events were all purely accidental and coincidental, so it must be just my bad luck.
Although he was kicked for no reason, fortunately there was a box outside, so there was nothing wrong with Subaru's body, he was just a little frightened.
Seeing that he had slowed down, Jiang Xia looked at the kicked box: "For such a classic human-cutting project, they may add it to the warm-up performance. If this box is used after the opening, the prop master will wait for it
We may return to sort things out later - in order to avoid encountering others in the group, let’s leave first.”
A few people nodded, and the group quickly walked out of the warehouse without staying any longer.
"Those props are too complicated, and there are too many mechanisms. Even if Dr. Ali comes here, I'm afraid he won't be able to see which ones contain fatal risks." Haihara Ai crossed his arms and analyzed in a low voice, "But it's not without gain.
At least we now know that the magician's prediction was not accurate - his apprentice was obviously very motivated to kill. So what we have to guard against is not four members, but five."
"..." Subaru Okiya looked at the magician on the advertising flyer: I don't know what surprises you have.
Now that things have come to a point, he has no other wishes. He just hopes that this performance will end quickly and that the magic troupe will set off to tour the United States.
However, despite the fact that freedom was so close, he always had a bad premonition, and it was getting stronger and stronger.
…
The number of suspicious people increased from four to five, and the workload became even greater.
Although they intend to follow up, there are not many professional detectives among Jiang Xia and his group. Even if they follow the group members separately, it is impossible to follow them.
A few people had to pretend to ask for autographs, walked around one by one, and had simple exchanges with the group members, but could not find anything unusual.
During this period, when passing by the temporary dormitory, Okiya Subaru stopped and looked at his neat luggage. He suddenly had the urge to pick up the suitcase and leave, not to stay in the group anymore.
"..."
The foggy dog hanging on the corner of his clothes looked up at him, flapped its wings, and vaguely felt that he understood something, so he started calling Jiang Xia.
A few seconds later, Jiang Xia naturally appeared next to Okiya Subaru.
"Mr. Okiya." Jiang Xia followed his gaze towards the room and hesitated, "I wanted to ask before, have you been hiding from us?"
"!" Okiya Subaru hurriedly denied, "No!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he realized his mistake—Jiang Xia was a famous detective and so sharp. It would be difficult to deceive him with such words.
Jiang Xia looked at him and sighed, seeming to blame himself: "This time, I do seem to have what others often call an 'event physique'. Although theoretically, this should be just a coincidence, but now it seems
Come on, these cases still cause trouble for many people... I don't know what you are doing abroad by changing your name, but now it seems that you are also one of the victims of my 'incident constitution' - I am
Didn't it interfere with your business? Alas, it's all my fault."
Subaru Okiya heard that he seemed to feel a little guilty, and his conscience ached: "How could this be your fault!"
...This is obviously Uzo's fault.
Jiang Xia patted his shoulder heavily: "There's no need to comfort me. I just hope that I won't delay your business - you don't need to leave. If you want to leave, we, the tourists, should leave. You can continue to stay."
I will find an excuse to take Conan and the others away."
Okiya Subaru: "No, no, no, really no need... I, I just looked at my luggage, not because I wanted to leave, but because I was distracted by looking at familiar things while thinking!"
Jiang Xia seemed to believe it: "We are here and we really won't disturb you?"
Okiya Subaru nodded bitterly: "Really, really."
They kept talking all the way. After finishing the conversation, Subaru Okiya suddenly realized that he seemed to be pushed into a dead end by his damn conscience - he had already talked about this, and it seemed too much to sneak away without saying a word.
Ugly.
Okiya Subaru: "..." Forget it, running away may not be better than staying here. Maybe all this is the guidance of the Statue of Liberty and the arrangement of fate...
…
In the blink of an eye, it's time for the show to start.
Jiang Xia followed the seats marked on the tickets and walked along the venue. Conan followed him, frowning and thinking about the current situation.
"I always feel that the magician himself doesn't seem as nervous as he said." Conan sighed, "I just wanted him to help find the members to talk to the members, but he actually said that he didn't want the members to find anything unusual and cause trouble.
The estrangement is that not only do you not ask me, but you also don’t let me ask anything... How can you make a commission? Are all the clients you usually meet so difficult to deal with?"
Jiang Xia: "The clients I met are pretty good. Although there are some that are difficult to deal with, those kind of clients usually end the cooperation once and won't cause trouble again. Generally speaking, the work goes smoothly."
Okiya Subaru thought of the case reports he collected about Jiang Xia: "..." Well, it is true that you can only cooperate once. After all, after cooperation, those people can never talk again.
"Let's concentrate on watching the show first." Jiang Xia found their seat and walked in. "Although the props used in the magic show have their own mechanisms, they are not as dangerous as they seem, but once such large equipment is actually used,
If an accident occurs, it will inevitably cause harm to people. Since the magician thinks that accidents may happen during the performance, then we should pay more attention."
Several other people nodded.
Soon, the surrounding light dimmed, the curtain opened, and the magic show began.
