"Let me look for it, hey, where did I put it?" Martin pretended to look for something, and searched his front and back pockets. When Doi Tucker was hesitating to throw him a prop quietly, Martin held There is an extra black top hat commonly used by magicians.

It looks like a rigid, non-collapsible hat, so just pulling it out of nothing is amazing.Doi Tucker naturally knew what was going on. The hat actually uses elastic steel wire to support the outline, and is covered with light and soft fabric. When the hat is twisted hard, the supporting steel ring is twisted from a '〇' shape to an '8' shape. Fold it in half, and it becomes a small ball that can be hidden on the body.

"Wait, are you serious?" Sonoko Suzuki thought that Martin was going to perform prank tricks again, but when he saw Martin make a hat, he suddenly felt that it was real: "Wait a minute, I'll call Xiaolan here too! "

Suzuki Sonoko rushed upstairs to call Xiaolan, and spent some effort to persuade Xiaolan to go downstairs first, have dinner after watching the performance, and take care of Conan after dinner.

In fact, after Xiaolan left, Conan woke up because of the sound of opening and closing doors and talking, and then opened his eyes.

Unfamiliar ceiling.

Standing up while rubbing his eyes, he is obviously not nearsighted but he is used to putting on glasses immediately after waking up, and then looked at this strange room.

I seem to have heard the voices of Xiaolan and Yuanzi just now, they must have just left, right?It looks like we are all in the villa now, with that 'Shadow Mage'...

Conan suddenly felt dizzy again, obviously his bad cold symptoms didn't ease much.

Lifting the quilt to get out of bed, he wanted to inform everyone that the head of the chat room had been killed and that the murderer, the shadow mage, had probably sneaked into the villa.

But he found something inside the quilt.

Soon, Conan took out a bottle of white dry wine with a yellow post-it note on it.

Conan is no stranger to this bottle of baiganjiu. After accidentally turning back into Kudo Shinichi through baiganjiu last time, he bought another bottle and kept it at the doctor's house for later use.And this morning, after Martin saw that he had caught a cold, he excitedly ran to the kitchen to find it, and asked him to perform "change size anywhere" for him.

Even though Conan insisted on refusing, Martin still put the bottle of wine in his luggage. Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone, and that's why Conan was afraid that Martin would drink him and didn't go to the villa with him.

There are yellow sticky notes (post-it notes) on the wine bottles, and Martin often has the habit of carrying sticky notes.

[You decide whether to drink or not. If you want to drink, I will lend you my clothes.

I went to the bag to get it.Regardless of whether you drink or not, when you wake up, go to the following places to wait...]

……

Yuanzi brought Xiaolan down, and Martin's performance officially began.

"Magicians and rabbits have a long-standing relationship. Many years ago, an excellent magician would pull a rabbit or a pigeon out of a hat." Martin said, showing the top hat in his hand: "And It can’t be a straw hat, let alone a baseball cap, it has to be this black, elegant and mysterious top hat.”

In addition to high-speed tricks, tricks to divert the attention of the audience are equally important, and language is often the best weapon to use, so most magicians will talk non-stop when performing, and very few magic masters can perform mimes Magic, which only uses movement to distract the audience.

"I know that!" Naoko Kuroda said, "Because the space of the top hat is very deep, you can make a sandwich inside to hide the rabbit."

"Is that so?" Martin didn't seem to be punctured at all, and directly handed the top hat in his hand to Naoko Kuroda: "Then ask this beautiful young lady to check it out."

"I won't show mercy." Kuroda Naoko happily took the hat, and then directly poked his hand into it.

The top hat is really deep, half way through Kuroda's forearm, and this proves that there really seems to be no interlayer.

Naoko Kuroda didn't believe in evil, put the hat on the table, put one of his arms on the table, and put the other into the hat. It was obvious that the height difference between the two hands was not much different, and the hat was obviously thinner than Conan's insole.

Kikue Tanaka also reminded: "Naoko, sometimes the mezzanine of magic props is slanted, check the side too."

"Of course I know." Naoko Kuroda returned the hat to Martin in disappointment: "But I'm sure, it's just a simple hat."

The props that will be shown to the audience for inspection generally have no mechanism, unless the audience is a trustee.Doi Takshu thought, otherwise, no matter how exquisite the mechanism design is, it would be hard to stop meeting an audience with a strange brain circuit.

Moreover, only a small number of magicians will put interlayers in the hat for rabbit magic. In most cases, the rabbit is not in the hat at the beginning, but on the magician's body, or held by an assistant behind the curtain.

Look for opportunities to hide the rabbit up your sleeve, or in your chest.Then point at the hat with a magic wand and take the opportunity to throw the rabbit in; or take the hat in your hand and turn it around a few times, and buckle it casually on the chest to guide the rabbit into it.

Now that there was no curtain behind Martin, it should be on him, under the table at most.Doi Tucker tree speculated.

And Martin held the chopsticks in his right hand, drawing circles in the air as if casting magic, while his left hand grabbed the middle and west of the air, as if he was capturing some kind of component in the air, and then threw them all into the hat.

"Next, it's time to witness the miracle!" Putting the chopsticks into the hat and turning it around like stirring a soup pot, Martin made a welcome gesture and said, "Amazing!"

Doi Tukeshu suddenly became a little interested: with his eyesight, he didn't see any sign of 'inverted rabbit' just now.

According to the general magic rhythm, at this time there should be cute, furry,

The fluffy little bunny popped out of the hat.

But the reality is silence, nothing happened.

The expression on Martin's face couldn't hold back anymore. He tapped the brim of his top hat with his chopsticks: "Amazing!"

"Amazing!" He seemed to be reminding someone with a secret signal, but no matter how he called, how much he bit the accent, the hat just didn't move at all.

Doi Takshu didn't take a rabbit with him when he went out today, and there were a lot of pigeons hidden under the fat on his body. He was thinking about borrowing two from Martin, so that the guy wouldn't attack him.

But upon closer inspection, Martin's eyes did not appear to be panicked at all. As for the tense expression, he was obviously acting out, and he was still continuing the magic show very seriously.

In addition, Doi Tucker felt that Martin's face became more and more strange the more he looked at it, and there was a slight sense of disobedience, and that sense of disobedience was also slightly familiar, as if... Disguise?

Martin showed anger, and went straight to the inside of the hat, with most of his arms stretched out.

Everyone couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Most of the arm?Naoko Kuroda could only stretch half of his forearm in just now, but Martin has even stretched half of his upper arm in at this time, obviously doing a trick to dig out rabbits under the table.

Doi Tucker guessed that this was not a bad show, and Martin seemed to be paying tribute to a famous foreign magic show.

Everyone was still polite, watching Martin continue to perform, and Naoko Kuroda, who was more interested in debunking the magic than watching the magic, bent down and lifted the tablecloth to look down, and burst out laughing.

She saw Martin's arm stretched out from under the table, and he was looking at it blankly, and on the other end of the table, a meter away from Martin's arm, hung an ugly rabbit doll.

To hell with that.

But when Naoko Kuroda put down the tablecloth and returned to the table to enjoy Martin's tricks, Martin really took out something.

He held a pair of long brown ears in his hands, leading a huge brown rabbit head to poke out from the hat.

"Hey~" the jackrabbit cried out excitedly when he saw Martin.

"?" Martin was also confused where she ran out from, and today's transformation is none of her business.He pressed her head with his hand and pushed her back into the hat: "No, I don't want you, it's the white one."

"grumble!"

Everyone was also confused, was that a big rabbit head just now?

The most baffled one was Naoko Kuroda who just got under the table, and then quickly got under the tablecloth, but the bottom of the table was still so empty, only an ugly rabbit doll was hanging there.

Doi Takeshu raised his head and looked around.He who kept paying attention to his surroundings seemed to see a black shadow pass by out of the corner of his eye.Presumably Martin just did something while he was getting everyone's attention.

Pushing the jackrabbit back, Martin picked up the chopsticks and tapped the hat again: "Amazing!"

Then he reached in and took a look, and brought out something——

Martin's hand grabbed Kudo Shinichi's hair, causing Kudo Shinichi to poke half of his head out of the hat, and stared at Martin with half-moon eyes.

Martin seemed to be frightened, and he stuffed Kudo Shinichi back faster than he could stuff a jackrabbit.

go with.

Then he looked up at the crowd, with a look of being frightened to think sluggishly: "Just now... what was that?"

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko were rubbing their eyes together, while the expressions of the others were somewhat horrified: "It seems to be a human head?"

"Is it a living person?"

"Is it really magic?"

If the only one not present at the moment is Toshiya Hamano who is still holding back the show in the room, but although they don't know the half of the head just now, it doesn't look like Toshiya Hamano.

"Hush!" Martin signaled everyone to be silent, then rolled up the tablecloth, covered the top hat, and made a 'raise' gesture.

Under the tablecloth, there was something really pushing the tablecloth up.

Doi Takshu quickly analyzed: the mechanism must be under the table, but it is close to the table so Naoko Kuroda can’t see it... It is similar to the general big change living person or human body segmentation mechanism, and a certain amount of space has been expanded under the table to accommodate it. actor actress.

But the above-mentioned performances used special prop tables, and this table is a dining table in a villa. It is already exaggerated to drill a hole. When did he transform it into a prop table?

Martin and Suzuki Sonoko were in charge of the cleaning during the previous preparation time, did they take advantage of that time?Can it be done in such a short time?

Doi Tukshu couldn't help wondering if he could do all of this... In a short period of time, he thought of a set of specific techniques, but he couldn't be sure whether it was the same as Martin's, but he was only [-]% sure of success.

Is this guy really a professional?But if you know magic yourself, why did you have to let me do it last time... That's right, magic is magic, and phantom thief is phantom thief. The only genius who can use magic performances for theft, besides me, is Dad.

At the same time, every time Martin raised his hand, the thing under the tablecloth grew a bit bigger, and finally became the size of an adult. Martin lifted the tablecloth, so that everyone could see a person wearing that headgear sitting on the table. A high school boy in a black top hat greets everyone with a handsome smile.

Doi Tucker was stunned on the spot: Why did Martin drag 'I' out?

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko also made a shocked voice: "Xinyi?"

The other three spectators, Arayoshino, Kikue Tanaka and Naoko Kuroda, realized that the whole process was part of the magic show, and applauded without hesitation, and the three gathered at least ten people.

"Next, let me introduce you." Martin said, "My magic assistant, Bai Yu Slow Fight!"

Kudo Shinichi: ? ? ?

Kuroba Kaito:? ? ?

Chapter 137 Shadow Mage

Although he couldn't complain about the pseudonym Martin gave him, Kudo Shinichi got down from the table and bowed in a decent manner, but he was qualified to play a magic assistant.

"Oh my God, how long has this boy been hiding in the villa? None of us thought there was another person here!" "When did you come?" The audience exclaimed.

Doi Takshu responded casually, while checking the dining table quietly, especially the mezzanine space under the table.

Although there are some traces of processing and transformation, but the proper interlayer is not seen at first glance.After carefully looking at the nails nailed around the bottom of the table, Doi Takeshu looked up at that 'White Feather Slow Fighter', and found that his trouser pocket was really bulging, and he was stuffing it with his fingers casually. stuffed.

It's the rope. Martin didn't use a delicate interlayer, but used rope and nails to interweave a simple net, and this magic assistant who looked similar to himself was lying on the net close to the table, really 'surfing the Internet'.

"It's a great loss that Hamano didn't come down to watch the performance. If he knows, he must complain that we didn't call him?"

"Who told him he couldn't think of the program on which he was thinking hard."

"If you want to talk about losses, there are also the Escape King and the Shadow Mage. It's really a big loss if they didn't come."

Of course, it was just a performance, and several audience members commented like this, in addition to their love of magic, it was also out of courtesy to compliment Martin.

What's more, letting an assistant hide in the villa for an entire afternoon, in their view, this matter is indeed a lot of investment, and they think that Martin is very attentive to this magic.

But hearing these two screen names, Kudo Shinichi immediately remembered that he was here to do business, and immediately said: "The escape king may not be able to come anymore."

Several people looked at him unexpectedly: "Do you know what?"

"First of all, let me confirm that the escaped king you are talking about is the head of the chat room, whose real name is Xi Shanwu, right?"

Huang Yi nodded solemnly, at least on the surface, he was the only one present who knew the true identity of the escaped king, Xishan Wu, his phone number,

Seeing that the other party hadn't arrived in the afternoon, he called the other party, but there was only an answering machine.

"This person has been killed." Kudo Shinichi said: "The body was found at home this morning. There was a message on the computer in front of the deceased: This is the first person, and the signature is Shadow Mage."
