Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 2689 2693 [Sneak Attack]

The group quickly set out from the detective agency and headed for the famous magician's home.

On the other side, the theater island was not yet completed.

Hashimoto Maya got up reluctantly, washed and ate reluctantly, then looked at the distant coast and sighed.

——After getting used to staying here, he really didn't want to go out more and more.

On the other side of the restaurant, Mrs. Sakihara, who was also enjoying the peaceful island, closed the newspaper in her hand and looked over: "You seem to be a little troubled. Is the matter of finding a magician not going well?"

Hashimoto Maya: "..." Not going well? More than not going well! He had only been on shore for one day, and in such a short time, all the FBI, detectives, and annoying colleagues swarmed out, as if they were deliberately making things difficult for his task, which was annoying.

But no matter how angry he was, the task still had to be done, and it was better to do it as soon as possible than to suffer a long pain.

Hashimoto Maya was worried for a while, and suddenly remembered something. He reached into his pocket and searched for a while, and soon took out a business card with a flowery scent - this was given to her by the beautiful female magician when she left last night.

Hashimoto Maya looked at the business card, and the figure and appearance of the female magician slowly emerged in her mind: "..." She has good looks, good skills, and good speaking skills, and seems to have some potential as a riddler - no matter from which angle you look at it, it is very consistent with the aesthetics of that adult.

But...

Hashimoto Maya turned the business card around with her fingertips for a few times, and couldn't help asking the lawyer's wife next to her: "Tell me, under what conditions would a magic rookie who has already made a name for herself and has a lot of fame in the country give up her bright future and come to work on our island?"

Mrs. Sakihara was stunned, and she seriously helped to think: "If she is obsessed with her career, it may be difficult. But the pace of modern society is too fast, and many people actually have potential psychological problems, and they will have the idea of ​​escaping accordingly-I lived on the island for a while, and I just felt that except for the construction noise, everything else here is like a paradise.

"If the magic rookie is tired because of the accumulated pressure, wants to rest for a while, but doesn't want to give up her career completely, then she may not refuse your invitation. After all, according to the plan of you and your boss, if your project is successful, this will be a bigger stage.

"-You can stop to rest and keep the path to your career. This kind of best of both worlds is sometimes hard to refuse."

Hashimoto Maya's eyes twitched slightly, and she felt complicated: "..." Paradise? Maybe it is like this now, but when this place is officially opened, with that adult's hobby...

He skipped this topic with a guilty conscience and turned to think about how to trick the magician to come to the island: let's talk about the future later, as for now, it is more important to abduct people and complete the current task.

"I don't understand psychological problems, but her emotions are indeed a little wrong." Hashimoto Maya thought of the performance of the female magician last night, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that there was a plan in the dark. And if that woman is really the employee that Uzo-sama has chosen...

Then he must bite the bullet and go to her to poach her, and he must not expose his desire to slack off - mixed in with a group of colleagues who are the king of rolls, whether he likes it or not, for the sake of his life, he must also roll up.

Just as he was secretly making up his mind, Mrs. Sakihara next to him seemed to see his entanglement.

"Why don't I go visit her with you?" Mrs. Sakihara had just gotten rid of the daily life of a family, and now she was full of ambition. She looked at her boss who was not arrogant and smiled softly, "Bringing an assistant with you will make you look more formal - maybe this can be the last straw to impress the other party."

...

Tokyo, a luxurious residential area.

The detectives followed Mrs. Kujuku into her house.

As soon as the door was pushed open, a front hall comparable to a small square appeared in front of them. Conan looked up at this place that was larger than an ordinary performance hall, and couldn't help muttering: "This house is really magnificent, worthy of being the place where a world-famous magician lives."

Amuro Toru looked around and found nothing unusual, so he said to Mrs. Kujuku: "Take us to the place where your husband's body was found first."

Mrs. Kujuku nodded and led them to a corridor.

However, at this moment, a figure came out of nowhere and stopped in front of them, saying seriously: "Wait."

Jiang Xia raised his head and saw a young man with ordinary looks and smiling eyes - he looked familiar. After careful identification, it was the last person to be admitted to the master, Yu Shi Baidi, in the group photo that Mrs. Jiujiu just took out.

Yu Shi Baidi touched his chin and paced back and forth between the three guests. Finally, he stopped in front of Amuro Toru with a weird smile on his face.

Amuro Toru: "?"

"You seem..." The young man suddenly approached him, his small eyes were sharp, as if he could see through Amuro Toru's appearance and his heart, "You seem to be carrying a huge worry."

Amuro Toru: "..." Yes, I am worried whether you are a subordinate of Uzo, whether I should put a sack on you and take you away for investigation... Wait, why did you suddenly come out and say this, does this person know his identity, is this provoking him?

"Hehe, there is no need to hide it. Even if you hide it, it will be useless. Because--" Just as he was thinking, Yuji Momochi smiled mysteriously, and suddenly raised his hand, which was as fast as the wind, and brushed past Amuro Toru's ear.

The next moment, he screamed: "Ahhh! Let go, are you going to strangle me to death!!"

-Originally, he planned to follow the previous words and conjure a pigeon from the customer's collar to make a cold joke about the embodiment of troubles... But who knew that his hand speed, which he was proud of, was accurately stopped by this foreigner, and the pigeon hidden in the sleeve was also seized by the other party, and it was struggling in the other party's hands.

Thinking that there was some weapon hidden there, Toru Amuro looked at Yushi Momochi, and then at the innocent pigeon in his hand: "......?"

Mrs. Jiuju came back to her senses at this time, and she couldn't help laughing: "My husband always taught them that if they want to learn magic well, they should study the techniques all the time and integrate magic into their lives-so these three children have the habit of suddenly performing a small magic trick while talking."

Toru Amuro silently let go, and stared at Yushi Momochi who was covering his arm and hissing: "..." This kind of skills and fighting power does not look like an employee that Uzo would choose...

Yushi Momochi wanted to cry but had no tears: "The child is too short, and other people look at him in different directions, so it is easy to expose the trick when using him to perform magic. And the detective's observation ability is too sharp, so I chose you as a compromise, but you..."

How can you be so violent! Humph, a rough man who doesn't know how to appreciate art.
