Conan’s Corpse Picker

While he was struggling, he heard Jiang Xia say: "Lighting the rocks on fire is part of this magic show. According to what the deceased said before his death, he planned to make the rocks floating in the air burn and turn into ashes after entering the rocks. And he will rise from the ashes.

"Of course, this is just what the magician says when facing the audience. To put it in simpler terms, Mr. 'Clown' intends to perform an alternative escape magic.

“Although I don’t know what method he wants to use, according to common sense, he will break free first, escape from the rock, and then ignite the specially made ‘stones’.

"It's just that there was obviously some fatal problem with this process. So that before he could escape, the rocks had already ignited, which ultimately led to his failure to escape and his unfortunate death."

The Mumu Police Department seemed to understand: "In other words, this is a magic accident? ... That's right, phosphorus is so flammable, and the deceased dared to use it as a prop. Alas, it is such a pity for such a young person ”

When the staff next to him heard this, he couldn't help but whisper in: "But Mr. Sakonji has rehearsed several times in the past few days. Every time he escaped smoothly, and the rock was never accidentally ignited. Why did it happen like this?" Something happened the first time? ...I, I think someone must have harmed him!" - It's not that there was something wrong with the equipment and program review of our venue!

"We have rehearsed several times without any problems, but this time the accident happened?" Police Department Megu was convinced. He frowned and thought, "In this way, it is indeed a coincidence. But if there really is a murderer, how will the murderer harm him? Anyway, You can’t climb onto a semi-blank rock and light it in full public view.”

The staff choked: "This..."

Jiang Xia raised his head and looked at the ceiling of the stage: "It should be a problem with the spotlight."

He pointed to the large lights with a strong presence: "During the rehearsal, these lights will not all be turned on, so as long as the magician does not set the rocks on fire, the special rocks will be safe.

"But when the actual performance begins, the lights are turned on and the heat is focused. Before the magician can escape, the phosphorus on the rock will be ignited by the light, causing the magician to be killed in a sea of ​​fire."

Suzuki Sonoko looked at the charred black figure on the ground with lingering fear: "There is such a big hidden danger... Fortunately, the lady near the palace did not perform this magic herself, otherwise she would have been burned."

Maya Hashimoto glanced at this stupid colleague with disgust and cleared his throat: "I remember when Gao Yuanyi was on the train, he once said that he would hand over the 'Joker' to the dead Reiko Konmiya for punishment. And the method of punishment It’s the ‘Iron Fist of Fire’.”

Suzuki Sonoko didn't feel the target from the brain monster. She tasted Hashimoto Maya's words and suddenly froze, feeling an indescribable chill in her back: "Could it be...could it be that Reiko Konmiya deliberately left this behind?" Trap?"

Maya Hashimoto: "..." No, this is a foreshadowing deliberately left by Usa-sama.

Next to him, Officer Sato, who was listening carefully to their conversation, suddenly thought of something and took out his mobile phone: "The two "Magic Notes" Gao Yuanyao has on him should still be in the detention center. I asked them to take them over and take a look."

Officer Takagi nodded and trotted to search.

Just as Officer Sato was about to dial the number, a call came to her cell phone first.

"Huh?" Officer Sato answered in confusion. After listening for a while, her expression changed.

After a moment, she hung up the phone: "Gao Yuanyao escaped from prison - just a few minutes ago."

Maya Hashimoto was stunned: "Prison break?"

The person sent in by Uzo could actually escape again? ? How unreasonable!

...However, maybe this is also part of Lord Uzo's plan!

"Does he really still like this magician the most?" Maya Hashimoto felt mixed emotions for a moment, "This way I don't have to work hard to find new candidates... But will such a dangerous guy really come to work for me? By the way. When I come back, where are they? How can I have an interview if I can’t see him in person?”

An interviewer pinched his forehead and became confused.

…

Not long after, the detention center sent what Officer Sato wanted.

——Although Gao Yuanyao ran away, for some reason, he kept the two "Magic Notes" in his hand.

The young police officer responsible for surveying the scene took the notes from the guard and trotted over them to Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia flipped through the two notebooks and quickly stopped at the last page.

Officer Sato leaned over to take a look, and when she saw the content clearly, she sighed: "That's true."

——Magic No. 35, "Gravityless Rock Disappearance from the Sky" that led to the death of the Joker, was only recorded in the notebook obtained by the "Joker" Sakonji.

However, it did not appear in the notes that Konmiya Reiko gave to Gao Yuanyu.

That smart woman is really talented in magic. She can use magic to win applause from the whole house, and she can also use magic to easily kill those who covet her notes.

"She should have been aware of the imminent intentions of several apprentices, so she sent the real magic manual to her son in advance, and then added a death curse to another copy of the notebook."

Jiang Xia looked at the other magic tricks with slight curiosity and said casually: "If someone kills her and takes away this notebook, then the greedy murderer will fall into the death trap she set in advance because of this magic trick.

"Gao Yuan probably discovered this when he saw the note from 'Joker', so he gave up on his revenge, was easily arrested and left the stage, leaving the rest of the stage to his mother."

"..."

This complicated situation left everyone at a loss as to what to say.

At this time, among the nearby staff.

James was mixed in, listening to these reasonings carefully, feeling as if he understood a lot, but also as if he didn't understand anything at all.

But that's not important - it doesn't matter if he doesn't figure it out himself, as long as someone can figure it out.

While quietly leaving the scene before being discovered, James took out his mobile phone, recorded what he heard, and sent it to Shuichi Akai.

The hard work goes to those who can. Let their powerful ace analyze the truth behind this and the clues about Uzo.

"Although there was something wrong with the reconnaissance mission, and the thread we wanted to contact was unfortunately burned to ashes... but we finally got some useful clues."

James thought happily: "My intuition tells me that the inside stories I just heard may contain very important information. There is also Gao Yuanyi who escaped from prison. If we can catch him, we will definitely move towards the truth. Take a crucial step!”
