Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 1544 Chapter 1544【You have been taken over】

   "Also..." Uzo glanced down at Okiya Subaru's cell phone and smiled, "Akai Shuichi, I want to contact you in person. You are so sensible, you won't disrupt your boss's schedule without authorization."

  Okiya Subaru nodded stiffly, remembering his intention to send a message to Akai Shuichi just now.

   Uzo looked away from him and left the room.

  Passing by the door, Miss Spider, who had been quietly guarding the door, turned around and followed him naturally, like a loyal secretary who never leaves, always waiting for dispatch.

  The two men in black walked out one after the other, and disappeared from Okiya Subaru's field of vision under his incomparably complicated gaze.

  …

  Jiang Xia entered the corridor, scattered the puppet in the blind corner of sight, and returned to the body consciousness.

  Of course, he didn’t forget to leave an oni behind before he left—although Okiya Subaru looked like a salted fish who had given up and escaped, but he still had to be on the safe side.

In addition, apart from preventing him from escaping, this can also be useful: Jiang Xia always feels that this little brother has been unlucky since he left the country. It seems to be a bit of a loss.

  Consciousness returned to the body, and the originally vague noise suddenly became clear.

  Jiang Xia was sitting in the auditorium. Before he opened his eyes, he was pushed a few times by Inspector Yasa: "Don't sleep! Something happened!"

After pushing the detective, Inspector Asa rushed to the stage cursing: "That guy better stop playing me! If I find out that this is cheating us on stage again, I must give him a hard kick, no matter what he is It's not a stage effect!"

  Jiang Xia rubbed his eyes, looked in the direction he was running, and found that on the stage, the props used before had been removed, and now there was only a large water tank standing on the spot.

  The water tank is like a fish tank, surrounded by transparent glass, with a heavy iron cover on top. Looking at it from a distance, one can vaguely see an upside-down figure in the water tank.

Beside   , Hui Yuanai turned his head to look at Jiang Xia, and saw that he was looking at the stage, as if he didn't know what happened, so he moved closer and explained in a low voice:

"This is an underwater escape magic. First, the magician's feet are handcuffed to the iron cover, and then the iron cover is lifted by the machine, and the person is covered on the top of the water tank. In this way, the person will be put into the water tank upside down. Then the assistant will lock the iron cover, and then put a curtain on the water tank to block the audience's sight.

   "According to the previous style of this magician, his original plan was probably to make us think he was drowned, and then suddenly appeared outside the tank in the chaos.

   "But just now when the assistant pulled up the curtain again, the magician was still in the water tank, and the assistant was also stunned, as if something had happened."

Hui Yuanai looked at Inspector Asa who was rushing towards the stage, and said in a low voice: "But I think this time, maybe it's the same as last time, it's doing a show effect—you see, although the assistant seems to be stunned, but the magician His apprentice, the stage photographer, has been filming the scene in the water tank. And if something really happened, he should try to save people."

   "Is that so?" Jiang Xia thought for a while, frowned and stood up, "I'll go and have a look too."

He quickly ran to the stage, and when he passed the auditorium, he found that the audience on both sides were also arguing. It seemed that their opinions also had many differences. Some thought it was a stage accident, and maybe the magician had died. , and some think this is another wonderful performance by the magician.

  Jiang Xia ran to the front of the stage, just jumped up, and suddenly found a person jumping up next to him.

  Conan's legs are not long, but his jumping ability is surprisingly good. As soon as he landed on the stage, he quickly ran to the water tank—he went to the bathroom just now, and when he came back, he found that the atmosphere was not right, so he rushed over immediately.

  Several people quickly gathered around the water tank, Yasa Jingdu was slapping the wall of the water tank, but the magician inside was floating with the water and did not respond.

  Jiang Xia turned to look at the two beautiful female assistants. Unlike the last time, when the magician suspended animation on the steel knife bed, the two assistants had obviously been ordered and behaved very calmly. But this time, they looked bewildered and seemed to have no idea what to do next.

  At this time, the script master and prop master in the backstage reacted, and the voice of the script master quickly sounded in the headsets of the assistants: "What are you doing in a daze! Hurry up and unlock the lid and get the person out!"

  The prop master also clicked the switch to close the heavy curtain, instinctively preventing the audience from seeing the accident. Then manipulate the machine to lift the lid of the water tank.

  The cover rose, and the magician who was hanging on it also got out of the water. His face was pale, dripping all over his body, like a water ghost who had just been caught ashore. As soon as Mao Lilan lifted the opening curtain and jumped onto the stage, she saw this terrible scene.

"what-!"

  She instinctively uttered a cry of surprise.

   At the same time, he instinctively swiped and took out his mobile phone and started calling an ambulance.

  …

   The chaotic first aid, especially the drawing of the curtain, finally made the audience below realize that something was wrong.

   Huihara Ai was stunned for a while, and dragged Dr. Ali along with him, and slipped onto the stage from the side.

  As soon as he found Jiang Xia who was helping to press his chest, Hui Yuan Ai saw a camera lens swaying from the side.

  She was startled, and looked intently, and found that the apprentice of the magician in a low-key black suit was still filming the first aid scene from various angles as he did during a normal performance.

   Hui Yuanai recalled his wrong guess just now, the corners of his eyes twitched, and he couldn't help asking: "Why are you still shooting?"

  The apprentice paused and sighed. He looked at the magician who was carried away after the rescue failed, and turned off the camera.

  …

  Although the master is dead, the disciples are still taking pictures, which seems strange.

   But thanks to the subconscious photography of the apprentice, many images of the time were left behind.

"Look carefully, look carefully!" On the stage, Inspector Yasa paced up and down with his hands behind his back, while watching the video played on the screen, he said to the police officers who had just arrived, "There may be some We must find out the murderer's fatal flaw, and we must find out that madman who dared to kill people on the stage!"

  Jiang Xia was watching those videos, and suddenly found that the curtain next to him opened and closed slightly—all the members of the circus were approached, and it was the low-key Subaru Okiya who entered the door at this time.

  Jiang Xia looked at him sneaking and trying to reduce his presence, raised his hand and greeted him: "Chong...Mr. Tanaka."

  Inspector Yasa had been spying on Jiang Xia originally, and wanted to know the target the detective was observing by observing the detective, and then find the murderer.

  At this moment, Jiang Xia looked at Okiya Subaru, and he immediately noticed this person.
