"Fortunately you didn't get hit."
Hearing Jiang Xia talk about his recent experience, the trainee female magician sighed in fear: "We have been here in previous years, and the manager said that the woods are full of terrible swamps. There has been a lot of rain recently, and it is very difficult to walk on.
It will sink to the bottom soon, if you accidentally step on it..."
Jiang Xia: "It seems I'm lucky."
Conan shook his head when he heard this: "Although the ending is good, you are too reckless."
Jiang Xia: "...?" Forget it about others, are you worthy of criticizing me on this matter?
He rubbed the tomboy's head vigorously, then threw the dizzy classmate aside, and said seriously: "The 'Puppet Master of Hell' is more aggressive than we thought, so we should catch his true body as soon as possible."
Mentioning this matter, Officer Sato sighed: "Without the help of those modern tools, there are too few clues to be obtained... However, if we roughly judge based on past experience, the substitute puppet suddenly appeared on the stage
The body should have died 15 to 20 minutes before his appearance."
"?!" When the members of the magic troupe heard this time, their expressions changed dramatically, "15 to 20 minutes... Doesn't that mean that Yurama was already dead before the 'Living Doll' started?!"
Officer Takagi looked at them with some confusion: "Yes. What's wrong? Is there any problem with this?"
"Of course there is a problem!" Mermaid Girl blurted out excitedly: "The person in charge of performing the 'living doll' tonight is the dead Yurama himself!
"We thought he was killed by the murderer lurking in the ceiling after the performance, but if he died before the performance started... then, who is controlling the 'living puppet'?"
"Of course it's the 'Hell Puppet Master'." Jiang Xia comforted her, "Didn't I tell you earlier that the 'Hell Puppet Master' is probably a member of your magic troupe."
Members of the magic troupe: "..."
The inference made by the solid evidence in front of them was obviously more convincing than the previous detective's frivolous statement, "The murderer is among you." Finally, everyone could no longer deceive themselves and others, and the atmosphere in the magic group became weird and stiff.
"'Living Doll' is a very difficult magic trick." The trainee female magician looked at her seniors, and her eyes quickly stopped on two people:
"Except for the dead leader and Mr. Yurama, the only ones among us who can perform this magic are Miss "Mermaid" Yumi and Mr. "Clown" Sakonji."
"Really?" The two policemen looked at the two magicians, and their eyes became sharp.
"Clown" Sakonji looked at them and smiled helplessly: "Don't look at me like a suspect. Although this magic was performed by our two dead companions, plus me and Mermaid Ji, the four of us
We created it together, but we have performed the same show for 5 consecutive years.
"Over the years, there may be some colleagues who have secretly learned it after watching it - you may not know that our Fantasy Magic Group is simply a material library among those colleagues. Just now, there must be a lot of people in the hotel who come to learn secretly.
colleagues. If you ask me, the 'Puppet Master of Hell' must be among those people."
Maya Hashimoto: "..." This is not entirely wrong. His and Jiang Xia's tickets came from the friendly sponsorship of a magician. But...
"It seems like you haven't realized the seriousness of the problem yet. What's important now is to clear away the suspicion? What's important is how to survive!" Maya Hashimoto hated the iron in her heart:
"Two of the four people who created the 'living dolls' have died. You have so much in common with those two dead people. Don't you feel that you are very similar to the third or fourth person who will die next?
"
Facts have proved that not everyone is as alert to perversion as he is.
Not only the "Joker", Mermaid Girl's focus at this time is also on how to remove suspicion.
The grumpy mature woman snorted coldly: "Let's forget about that annoying guy Yurama - the last captain died, he was my husband, how could I do something to him?"
Officer Sato: "..." What are you talking about? Aren't the husband and wife more likely to be suspected? It seems that you don't pay much attention to murder news.
However, it is not yet certain that the murderer is Miss Mermaid Ji, and it is difficult for her to tell her directly.
After chatting for a few more words, the group broke up unhappy. The members of the magic troupe left the lounge and returned to their rooms with their own thoughts.
Officer Sato sighed and looked at his somewhat tired companions: "You guys should go and have a rest quickly - Jiang Xia, you stay in the room with Mr. Hashimoto and Officer Takagi, Xiaolan Yuanzi, and Conan, you stay in the room with me.
.Although this will be a bit crowded, it can prevent the 'Hell's Puppet Master' from making another sneak attack. We will discuss other matters tomorrow."
Thinking of the "Hell's Puppet Master" who had strange methods and would attack passers-by, the two female high school students nodded with lingering fear, packed their bags and prepared to go to Officer Sato.
And Maya Hashimoto also breathed a sigh of relief: Being in the same room as Jiang Xia, the safety has been greatly improved!
Maya Hashimoto: "..." But I don't know why, maybe because there is an annoying policeman in the house, he always feels a little unmotivated, and he really wants to stay in his room without going to share a house.
Of course, in the end, reason defeated those inexplicable instincts. He picked up his luggage and went to Officer Takagi's room with Jiang Xia.
…
After barely making do for one night, everyone got up safely the next day and went downstairs to the restaurant.
After briefly observing the dark circles under Maya Hashimoto's eyes, they continued to speculate on what they had not finished talking about yesterday, hoping to solve the mystery as soon as possible.
At this moment, a sigh of vicissitudes came, interrupting everyone's conversation.
"well……"
Everyone turned around following the sound, and then discovered that an elderly hotel manager had appeared behind them.
"Mr. Manager?" Jiang Xia patted the sofa next to her and motioned for him to sit down and chat, "What do you think of what happened yesterday?"
The hotel manager shook his head helplessly: "I really didn't expect that the magic troupe that wanted to dominate the world would turn into such a torn apart state now."
Maya Hashimoto: "..." Listening to this tone, it sounds like a hidden fan of Fantasy Magic Troupe - it's right when you think about it, that magic troupe holds performances here every year, and the hotel manager is very familiar with it, and he may have watched it for dozens of times.
Years old, it’s normal to have some feelings for the magic troupe.
Thinking of the recruitment task he shouldered, Maya Hashimoto could only say: "You seem to know some inside information?"
