"Midori... Qiao... uh, who is this?" Conan squinted his eyes in the dim light and carefully observed the position diagonally in front of the aisle - the person sitting there felt very familiar to him, but for a moment he felt...
Can't see clearly.
After a while, looking at the glasses on the bridge of the other person's nose, Conan finally confirmed: Maya Hashimoto, this is the weird guy who once shared a plane with them and later entered the Jiangxia Detective Agency!
"I remember there was no news from him for a while... Isn't this man busy building the island? Why did he suddenly come to see the magic?"
Conan touched his chin in confusion: "Although it cannot be ruled out that he came out to play, this kind of dark and noisy place is very suitable for some shady secret transactions..."
Thinking this, Conan's eyes moved and he looked at the positions of Maya Hashimoto's front, back, left and right.
Unfortunately, he was too short and the backrest was too high. If Maya Hashimoto hadn't suddenly leaned out just now, Conan might not have been able to see him.
"Speaking of which, what did Maya Hashimoto do just now?" Conan failed to see the potential trading partner, so he had to look back and think from another angle, "It seemed like he was instinctively avoiding the person sitting next to him... to be more serious.
Xiang Xiang thought, could it be that the deal was not settled and the guy sitting next to him drew a gun and threatened him? "
This made Conan even more curious. He was about to say "I'm going to the bathroom" to the classmates next to him, and then quietly walked around to see the more suspicious people next to the suspicious person, but before he spoke, Conan remembered something.
, suddenly paused.
"The performance has just begun. Isn't it too conspicuous to be running around now?" Conan thought carefully, "According to my experience, when illegal transactions are going on, there are often people nearby - just like when I was peeping at what was going on.
The vodka being traded was attacked by Gin from behind with a stick... You can never step on the same trap twice. You must stay calm this time, otherwise you will really die."
With that in mind, Conan paid close attention to Maya Hashimoto's movements to prevent the two from escaping, and pretended to watch the show.
…
After Conan, who was about to move, finally stopped squirming and stayed in his seat.
Beside him, Jiang Xia turned his gaze and glanced here silently.
Jiang Xia: "..." The ice tea boy actually came to this magic show. It was really fate. Speaking of which, he was quite good at picking seats, and he actually picked one next to the FBI leader.
In addition, if I feel right, there is a murderous atmosphere smelling of alcohol moving back and forth in the backstage here - Gin is not free to wander around the backstage of the magic venue. Judging from this, it should be Akai Shuichi who is there.
"Obviously we are tracking down 'Uzuo', but instead of risking the corresponding colorless murderous aura, we still risk the murderous aura with the same alcohol as the gin..." Jiang Xia stirred the iced Coke in his hand and said dissatisfied, "Really
I don’t know whether to praise him for not forgetting his original intention or to blame him for not grasping the key points.”
He half wanted to drive Matsuda Jinpei's puppet and sneak backstage to say hello to the shameless FBI ace. However, thinking about it, not far away, his most diligent subordinate seemed to be still concentrating on his work...
A good and conscientious boss finally decided to stand still and wait and see what the situation was like before talking about anything else.
…
on stage.
Xinghe Tongwu was performing flying magic, but for some reason he always felt a chill in his back. This made him couldn't help but look down at the auditorium. However, below, as usual, there was only a black top of the head, and nothing could be seen at all.
abnormal.
"I don't know why I always have a bad premonition." Xinghe Tongwu muttered in his heart, and quietly checked the equipment behind him uneasily, "There is no problem. I also checked it repeatedly before going on stage. Could it be me?
Worry too much..."
Amidst the subtle doubts, the magician landed smoothly. He thought too much and quickly threw himself into the next magic trick.
…
As the content of the performance changes, the light on the stage is also constantly switching.
In the chaotic beam of light, James looked at the guy next to him who was not Shuichi Akai.
"If I remember correctly, this person who looks like Akai also has something to do with Uzo... If he is a member of that organization, he must know what the surname 'Akai' means." Thinking of this, James felt regretful and wanted to get in.
In the cracks of the ground, "I actually exposed my identity so quickly??"
"...No, calm down, you can't just give up, you have to try to save the situation no matter what."
A series of thoughts flashed through his mind. James forced himself to stay calm and tried to show a kind smile. He said to the person next to him: "Sorry, I recognized the wrong person - you are very similar to an enthusiastic young man I met a while ago."
Maya Hashimoto: "..." Stop pretending! The surname Akai is so rare, and you, an old man, have a European and American appearance. You are actually a member of the FBI! And you are still on the front line at such a young age, maybe you are still a coordinator.
The little leader of the FBI agents!
Understanding this, for a moment, Maya Hashimoto wanted to jump up and run away from the dispute between her boss and the FBI.
Suddenly, however, he realized something.
"What did this old man just say?" Maya Hashimoto recalled quickly, "When he mistook me for Akai, he said, 'Didn't I ask you to wait outside?'... In other words, outside the venue
Is there Shuichi Akai?!”
This thought flashed across his mind, and after a moment of stiffness, Maya Hashimoto sat back down firmly.
——Now that the show has started, there are few people around the venue. Even if there are gunshots, people who hear them in the distance will only think that it is a noise caused by a magic show.
...In other words, if he really escapes now, what is waiting for him is likely to be arrested by the FBI outside, and those people will not be afraid to open fire.
"I was just watching a magic show, and I just wanted to poach someone... How could things turn into this?"
Maya Hashimoto felt sad and angry for a moment, and quickly found the answer to this question in her heart: What else could it be? Of course it was Uzo, who he had asked him to recruit not long ago!
"What on earth does that adult want to do?"
As the code name "Uzo" flashed through his mind, all the weird current situations seemed to make sense.
Maya Hashimoto took a deep breath and tried to figure out the other party's intention: "Could it be that poaching magicians to the island is fake, but attacking the FBI is real?... But then again, why did these FBI appear at the magic show venue?
