The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan
Chapter 870 Thank you, Red Herring
"Do you want to go out and look for him? Don't forget, not only we can't leave here, but the attacker can't leave either."
Kuroba Kaito and Karasawa walked to the side of the room, looked at each other, and raised their chins toward the outside.
"Yes. Since the attacker has already started to attack us directly, instead of waiting to die, why not try to fight back? With so many of us, it would be very difficult for the attacker to attack us without external help." Karasawa nodded knowingly and suggested the same thing.
Takahisa Tanaka, who was pretending to cry, raised her head and glanced at the honest expression of Doi Takeki.
This actually met her needs.
Due to the temporary changes caused by the mission and the appearance of the detective, she could not pretend that she was unlucky enough to be drawn for the task of boiling water as she had originally planned, and used the boiled bath water to wash away her suspicion. It was too late for her to change her method of committing the crime, so she could only change the time and method of committing the crime urgently. After attacking Hamano Toshiya, she hung him on the terrace on the third floor.
Now, as the arrows were shot, the "sail" used to transport the bodies outside had taken shape, and the slipknot on Hamano Toshiya's neck was about to fall off.
According to her original plan, she was indeed going to guide everyone's emotions for a while, and then take them out to witness Hamano Toshiya's body falling in the snow with her own eyes...
So, her previous guess was correct, Doi Takeshu was indeed an acquaintance of her grandfather, and he was also ready to help her, right?
Although it was a little early, as long as she adjusted her stride and didn't walk out too fast, the effect should be similar...
Thinking about this, she felt a little relieved. Tanaka Takahisa stood up and said in an indignant tone: "You are right, I want to see what this shadow mage wants to do..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Tang Ze and Doi Takeki standing in the back, including Amuro Toru and Hakuba Tan, all raised their feet and walked out quickly, as if what she meant was not that she was going to lead people out to look for it, but a starting gun to start running.
Takahisa Tanaka was stunned, glanced at her leaky window, and her face suddenly became nervous.
Although it was difficult for them to change the inevitable death of Hamano Toshiya, hanging from the upstairs and sliding down in front of them and the body appearing out of thin air in the middle of the snow were two different things!
She opened her mouth, ignoring Suzuki Sonoko and Ara Yoshinori who tried to comfort her, and hurriedly ran in the direction the four men left.
The other people who didn't know what happened looked at each other blankly.
"Could it be that they have already got a clue where the attacker is hiding?" Kuroda Naoko, whose mind had just turned around, murmured to herself, "Are they worried that the attacker will run away, so they are more anxious?"
"If that's the case, then why did they have to wait until Miss Tanaka finished speaking before running? Why didn't they say hello to us?" Ara Yoshinori rubbed his waist, "Young people are so energetic."
If he came, even if he was well prepared, it would be absolutely impossible to run at this speed.
He saw those young men as if they were participating in a 100-meter race...
"Don't you want to go over and take a look?" Arayoshi pointed to the door in a friendly manner, "Aren't you the girlfriend of the magician's disciple? Aren't you worried?"
"Ah? Oh, oh..." Suzuki Sonoko scratched her head and opened her mouth to say something. She looked out the window and felt that it was not the right time to explain her identity, so she had to follow the other two people who were equally confused and walked out.
Tanaka Takahisa, who was sweating anxiously, had already rushed down the stairs.
She wanted to stop the four men who ran faster than rabbits, but as long as she thought about their true identities, she knew that her efforts were completely in vain.
Among the four people, except for the slightly weak Hakuba Tan, Tang Ze alone was the little superhero who dared to sprint 100 meters to chase the landslide truck when he didn't have any buff bonus. When she ran to the stairs, the four people had already rushed out to the side and went around the woods behind.
Tanaka Takahisa ran out of the door with a tense face. She was trying to use her brain to think about how to show enough surprise and fear to Hamano Toshiya who was about to fall from the building. As soon as she turned the corner, she saw that the four people who were running fast had stopped and stood in a row, looking up at something as if watching a play.
Huh? They didn't try to save people? So they were enjoying the ugly scene of Hamano Toshiya struggling and dying in mid-air?
Tanaka Takahisa thought of this and couldn't help but stop on her own initiative.
The realization that the people standing in front of her might be psychopaths made her dare not approach any further.
"Hey, here you are." Tang Ze, who looked up, turned his head and glanced at her who was running out of breath, "The mechanism is well designed, Miss."
Tanaka Takahisa's heart jumped suddenly.
"You, what are you talking about...!"
As she spoke, she successfully saw everything that happened at the scene from the gap left by Tang Ze who turned around, so all the following questions were stuck in her throat.
On the third floor, the prop that was supposed to be pulling the wire was now being held by a little boy leaning out of the window.
On the terrace, a high school girl with long hair had two metal objects wrapped around her hands. It looked like she had hurriedly passed through the wire that was fixed there.
And Hamano Toshiya, who was supposed to be hanged by the thing between his neck as he slipped, was in an awkward position with his hands and feet tied due to the damage caused by the little boy to the just-designed traction structure, and there was a snap. Photographed in soft snow.
As he fell to the ground, the four people who were watching the performance all let out regretful sighs.
"Conan-kun actually doesn't need to worry about that prop." Toru Amuro said cogently, "Just cut off the rope around his neck. Sliding down the wire will save you some injuries."
The position he fell was much lower than originally planned, and he would definitely not die. However, since he was completely unable to adjust any self-protective posture, it is difficult to say whether he would have suffered a broken bone or something like that.
"Yes, this may be the last time the props left by Mr. Harui Fuden will be used in an 'escape show'. What a rare opportunity." Kuroba Kaito was equally disappointed.
"It's not unfair to throw him down." Tang Zeyi said, "He should be taught a lesson. You can't just talk nonsense just because you are online. People must be responsible for their own words and deeds."
Detective White Horse ignored the three guys who were giving speeches, but turned around and looked at Tanaka Takahise, whose hair was stuck to her face and looked quite embarrassed: "I have good news to tell you, Miss Tanaka, although this is very difficult for you. It may not be a good thing. Mr. Nishiyamawu, whose online name is Escape King, was rescued before my helicopter departed. He is now in Mihua Central Hospital and is out of danger. "
Tanaka Takahisa was really surprised now.
Her eyes widened and her lips wriggled a few times. Facing Hakuba's sharp and calm gaze like a scalpel, she finally had no choice but to weaken her feet and sit down in the snow.
"Do you mean that Ms. Tanaka is the 'Shadow Mage'?" Arajinori, who slowly walked out at this moment, looked extremely surprised, "But, in this case..."
"I'm sorry, I told some inappropriate lies when I came here." Detective Bai Ma took off his deerstalker hat and bent down to make a gentleman's salute. "The main reason is that Mr. Xishanwu's vital signs were indeed unstable at that time. If the police hadn't been in time, When we arrive, he may really be dead, and I think once the information is revealed to the murderer that the other party is not dead, the murderer will probably stop temporarily because of the failure of the plan, and it will not be that simple to catch him. "
Tang Ze glanced at his confident and smiling side face.
Indeed, since Conan was not sick this time, no one else in the villa actually received the police report except for the white horse detective who came down from the air. The information about whether Xishan Wu was dead or not was all based on what the white horse detective said empty-handedly. .
The murderer, Tanaka Takahisue, was an ordinary woman with little physical strength. She found an adult man's home and strangled him to death. It is possible that a novice killer left in a hurry without confirming the man's death.
Coupled with Bai Ma Tan's unexpected attention to this group, this result is unexpected, but also reasonable.
"'Fraud Boy' is not actually Miss Tanaka's account." Hakuba Tan continued to explain, "Mr. Harui Fuden, who died unexpectedly during a performance more than a month ago, used the stage name called Fraud Boy when he first debuted. It was a random name As his escape magic became more and more mature and his reputation gradually increased, he began to act as the Japanese Escape King. Therefore, the moment I heard your identity, I was basically sure of the murderer who was full of murderous intentions. Who is it?"
He turned his head and looked at Tanaka Takakie, who was still falling to the ground and seemed unable to speak.
"If the visitors hadn't caused some accidents, and my arrival had completely disrupted your time plan, you probably wouldn't have been so anxious to take action, and you wouldn't have exposed such a big flaw, Miss Shadow Mage. "
Hearing his address, Tanaka Takahisa managed to move, raised her head, and looked at Hakuba Tan with an angry look.
This time the anger is no longer a superficial disguise, but a genuine anger with a hint of resentment.
"You saved that guy, right?" Tanaka Takahisa said in a hoarse voice, "If you hadn't been paying attention to him, I don't believe the police would have discovered his situation so quickly."
"This is a coincidence." Bai Ma Tan gently spread his hands, "I contacted Mr. 'Escape King' when I found out about your gathering. My original intention was to get in touch with him and find out some news in the group. Unexpectedly, when I arrived, he had temporarily lost his breathing... I had to give him first aid and send him to the hospital..."
Karasawa exchanged a look with Kuroba Kaito knowingly.
That makes sense.
It was precisely because Detective White Horse was the "first discoverer" that after seeing the content left by Shadow Mage, he firmly believed that there might be a murder at today's party. He immediately borrowed a police helicopter and landed blindly despite the heavy snow. Risk, forced air landing near here.
He came here purely for the case, but Kaitou Kidd just happened to do it, and the way he showed up was a way to paralyze the murderer.
"To be honest, what happened to Mr. Harui Fuden is regrettable, but it was just an accidental tragedy after all. I think they were the first to express their speculation about whether Mr. Harui Fuden could perform his special skills again, and they also wanted to express their expectations for the old gentleman. So blaming his death on these people is a bit too..."
"Shut up! What qualifications do you have to say that!" Tanaka Takahisa gritted his teeth and let out a low growl from his throat, like the neighing of a wild beast, "You too, so does he, you two...!"
"So is this really the case?" Seeing her violent side exposed, Kuroda Naoko took a step back in shock, "The deceitful boy is Harui Fuden. He saw those discussions, so he decided to perform, and then..."
When she accidentally learned that she might have killed a magician unintentionally, she looked a little pale.
After seeing her performance, the ferocious expression on Tanaka Takahisa's face softened a little. She shook her head.
"Grandpa doesn't blame you. Neither do I." Tanaka Takahisa lowered his head, "I have always used the account Fraud Boy. It was my grandfather who heard that I was discussing magic with people on the Internet, and he was very interested, so I used my account to communicate with you. It wasn’t until I was sorting out his belongings that I discovered why he suddenly became interested in performing again. His physical strength was not as good as before. This was a very dangerous operation. He lost his temper before the performance. He knows this very well. It is he who decides to perform. The magician should be aware before performing dangerous operations. I don’t mean to blame you.”
"So, you attacked Mr. Nishiyama..." Huang Yi frowned, recalling the content of this discussion, "Is it because of what he said at that time?"
"I can't forgive Nishiyama and Hamano for their comments about this matter after my grandfather passed away." Tanaka Takahisa held her knees that were frozen by snow and water, her voice was hoarse again, "What does it mean? 'The old man died in the ice water', what do you mean by 'the old man who has passed away doesn't even want to survive'... How can they say that to grandpa!"
When she raised her head again, the tears that had not been squeezed out after howling for a long time fell down in big drops.
"The 'Chunjing Magic Troupe' is running very well. Grandpa has only been responsible for planning and management for a long time. He didn't have to take such risks. He did it to respond to your expectations. He is very happy that young magic enthusiasts still remember Himself. There is still a draft in his computer that has not been sent. "Takahisa gritted his teeth, "I succeeded, are you happy?" - Harui Fengden, he wants to tell you after success. His true identity, I want to thank you for remembering him..."
Speaking of these things, the shock and regret when she discovered the draft seemed to invade her mind again, making her voice more and more choked up, and she could no longer say the next words.
Harujing Fengden wants to do his best to give these people who have high expectations for him a perfect ending.
Even though he failed, even though he was regretful, he was ultimately responsible for the choice he made and never felt any regrets.
If it hadn't been for the sarcastic remarks made by Hamano Toshiya and Nishiyama Tsumugi that hurt Tanaka Takahisue, we might not have been friends with each other for several years and wouldn't have gotten into this trouble.
"I think that although the two of them made mistakes, their crimes are not worthy of death. They paid a heavy price for what they said, didn't they?" As if he couldn't bear to hear her cry, Kuroba Kaito said softly, "Miss Tanaka, I'm glad that although you were dominated by your emotions, you did not cause irreparable consequences in the end. Your grandfather probably doesn't want you to ruin your future for his sake."
Tanaka Takahisa looked at him, thinking of the letter from the red herring that encouraged and worried her grandfather, sniffed, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Thank you, Hong..."
"Hmm!" Before Tanaka Takakie called out this name, Kuroba Kaito quickly interrupted her, but he still found a forbearing smile on Karasawa's face.
... Damn it, what a name. Now even he feels that being called by a fish’s name is a bit strange.
What a serious online name, how could it be like this...
It's all Tang Ze's fault!
The atmosphere here turned into a sad and aftertasteful prisoner's confession. Hamano Tori, whose mouth and hands were tied with tape and still stuck in the snow, squirmed feebly.
Do you just save people and don’t care? No one speaks up for me...
