Corpse collector in Conan

Turning around, the Asa police officers were surprised to find that it was the suspicious Asian again: "...Are you a member here?!"

"..."

Okiya Subaru nodded bravely.

Inspector Asa's eyes suddenly became more suspicious than ever: "But I remember that you seem to be a prop master for a Tokyo production crew."

Okiya Subaru: "...I work part-time. We were short of manpower here before, so I'm here to help."

Inspector Asa stared at him: "Oh, you came here to help, and then someone died here? Is it such a coincidence? And in the clothing street before, why did you appear in the toilet near the crime scene? Yes. Do you really have nothing to do with these things?"

Okiya Subaru: "..."

... No matter how many times I have been questioned by the police as a suspect, it is still the same scary thing.

However, thinking of what Usa had just said, Okiya Subaru realized that as long as he did not reject his boss's proposal, he would not really be taken away for investigation as a prisoner. After all, no matter how suspicious the police are, they still need evidence in the end.

And with Jiang Xia, a powerful detective, present, as long as Wu Zuo doesn't secretly release some physical evidence that can prove his guilt, he will still be safe.

Okiya Subaru: "..." When he was not on the opposite side of Usa, but just as a subordinate who was very useful to him, the originally dangerous atmosphere around him became normal again.

Although there is a word called "mighty and unyielding", the balance in Okiya Subaru's heart has inevitably tilted to one side at this time.

Halfway through his aggressive questioning, Inspector Asa found that this guy was distracted again. His forehead jumped: "When the incident happened just now, I remember you were not in the audience. Where were you and what were you doing?"

Subaru Okiya defended dryly: "I didn't kill anyone."

Conan stared at him, obviously wanting to ask something, but with the police and familiar relatives and friends nearby, it seemed that now was not the right occasion. In the end, he didn't ask directly, but he was thinking quickly about the relationship between Okiya Subaru and the so-called "stage", as well as the woman in black and "the adult" behind her.

At this time, Jiang Xia seemed to be unable to stand it anymore, and defended his acquaintances and friends: "Chong... cough, Mr. Tanaka is just unlucky and always encounters cases - although it is not scientific to say this, but according to my observation, It seems that some people have this kind of incident physique, such as a high school friend of mine.”

"?" Conan was suddenly called euphemistically, and he immediately turned to look at Jiang Xia: You are the one with the constitution, right?

Jiang Xia also looked at him: Don't be modest.

Conan: "..."

Due to the identification of the two ice cream robbers, Inspector Asa's first impression of Subaru Okiya was not very good. He always felt that there was something suspicious about this guy.

But now that he heard what Jiang Xia said, when he thought about it carefully, he found that this seemed to be the case - in terms of "relevant to the case", Jiang Xia seemed more suspicious than Subaru Okiya.

But Jiang Xia's previous behavior made Inspector Asa feel that although the detective was a bit annoying, he was indeed a good friend of justice.

Inspector Asaph: "..." Forget it, no matter what, let's look for evidence first. Otherwise, no matter how suspicious he is, he can't really treat him the same way he would treat a murderer.

He snorted and stopped paying attention to the group of Tokyoites. Instead, he turned to the two beautiful assistants of the magician: "By the way, since this is considered a performance accident, then according to your plan, the water accident that led to his death What is the original process of escaping magic?"

"Actually, the front is pretty much the same." The female assistants looked at each other, "It's just the last step. When we pulled up the curtain, Dongcheng was supposed to be standing above the sink and waving to the audience. But in fact, he didn't do it at all. Couldn’t escape from the tank.”

"Isn't this nonsense? I'm asking, how was he supposed to sneak out of the sink?" Inspector Asa scratched his head, suddenly remembered something, and looked at Jiang Xia and the others:

"I remember that I looked carefully at the time. Before the curtain around the water tank was lowered, the deceased pretended to be struggling in the water, but he did not make the 'help gesture' he said. But then he died. What happened? What went wrong?"

Before Jiang Xia could speak, the two female assistants grasped the key point first. They asked in surprise: "Help gesture? What does it mean?"

"You don't have to worry about what this means." Inspector Asa decided not to reveal too much to the suspects. "So the method of escaping from the water tank just now, when should he escape? Only by understanding this can we know the murderer. What method was used to kill him and then find the murderer!"

The female assistants looked at each other for a moment and were very embarrassed: "This... it's really not convenient for us to say."

The three team members next to him also nodded, and the script designer sighed: "Although it is to cooperate with the investigation, magic techniques are the foundation of our survival. If we reveal them to you, we will not be able to hold our head high in the industry."

"There is no need to keep such a level of secrecy for such a common magic technique." Conan suddenly said, "I know the secret of this magic - the key is on the lid of the water tank! Uh..."

While he was happily revealing the secret, he suddenly found that Mao Lilan was also looking at him.

The first-year primary school student froze with a guilty conscience and tugged at the hem of Jiang Xia's clothes: "Right, brother Jiang Xia, that's what you said when you inspected the scene just now!"

Jiang Xia: "..." I didn't say that.

However, after taking a look at the murderous aura emerging from the group members, he hesitated for a moment and nodded silently.

It happened that the lid of the water tank was not far away. Jiang Xia looked down and pointed at the latch at the connection:

"The lid of the water tank looks like a pair of shackles. After the magician's feet are locked and locked, it cannot be opened without unlocking the lock. But in fact, the shaft on the latch is designed to be easily pulled out. style. So as long as the assistant pulls out the latch shaft next to it after locking the water tank cover, it can be easily opened even if the lock is still attached to the cover.

"At the beginning of the performance, the magician was put into the water tank and the assistants pulled up the curtain. When the curtain blocked the audience's view, the magician who was hanging upside down in the water immediately turned his upper body up with the power of his abdomen and grabbed the hidden inside of the lid. The handle of the handcuffs, and the probe was ventilated. Then he had enough time to open the handcuffs and get out from the top cover."

Inspector Asa leaned over to the lid and looked at it for a while. He vaguely understood. He turned to look at the people in the circus: "Is this process correct?"

The method has been revealed by laymen, and there is no need to continue to keep it secret. Several members of the group nodded helplessly: "Yes, it is indeed the case."
