Subaru dragged his suitcase and looked for a temporary place to stay while he couldn't help but think wildly.
After finding a hotel and settling in, he took out his phone and looked at his watch.
Wu Zuo didn't go out specifically to arrest him this time - the boss obviously had other things to do, and arresting him was just a side trip. Because the meeting time in the email is not now, but a few hours later.
This actually gave Subaru some time to calm down.
Subaru sighed and slumped on the sofa, staring at the scene outside the window, eyes wide open, imagining his future anxiously.
…
Ten minutes ago.
On the other side, the venue rented by the circus.
The incident came to an end, and the audience left one after another in sighs. After that, the police temporarily handled the scene and prepared to return to the police station.
Conan watched the script writer being escorted into the police car and watched the police car drive away. He nodded secretly and felt a sense of accomplishment that he had successfully cracked the case.
But besides this, he always felt as if he had forgotten something.
A moment later, when he saw two beautiful female assistants walking by, Conan suddenly realized something: "Wait, where is Mr. Chong Shi?!"
The two women were startled when they heard his question: "Who?"
Conan reacted and changed it to Subaru's pseudonym: "I mean Mr. Tanaka!"
"I don't know." The temporary worker's presence was always very weak. The female assistant thought for a while and raised her finger to the corridor behind, "Maybe he is helping to pack the props."
Conan rushed over.
Jiang Xia took out her mobile phone and followed him while sending an email. By the time I caught up with him, his email had already been written.
Jiang Xia put away her phone and looked at Conan: "What's wrong?"
Conan looked at the empty lounge and punched the wall angrily, feeling that he had let go of an extremely important clue. But you can't tell Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan about this kind of thing.
"It's nothing." Conan managed to calm down and sighed, "I just think Mr. Chongshi is really weird - an engineering graduate student from a prestigious university, instead of going to school and writing a thesis, he dresses up like that and uses He went abroad under a false identity..." And he seemed to be closely related to the unidentified and terrifying cadre in the organization.
Jiang Xia seemed to be a little curious too. He touched his chin and thought for a moment. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he lowered his voice and said to Conan:
"Maybe he is actually the kind of agent that often appears in movies. I heard that some organizations do recruit special talents from top students... This sounds quite handsome. I will have to find an opportunity to ask him later. See if they need a part-time job. It seems like an interesting job."
"Don't!!"
Conan almost broke out in a cold sweat when he thought that Subaru Chong was probably a member of that terrible organization. He also thought about how Jiang Xia, a genius, found the organization and delivered it to his door.
He tried to nip this dangerous idea in the cradle: "You...that, you definitely can't do it! Agents need to be mysterious and low-key, but you are too famous. Even if you apply, you will definitely not be recruited. Even if you are recruited, It will only cause trouble to that organization, and it will hurt your teammates!"
"Is that so?" Jiang Xia was a little hesitant, but it seemed that he was not completely convinced and still refused to give up. "But as long as no one else knows that I am an agent and my identity is not exposed, my teammates will not be harmed."
Conan looked at his neighbor who was blinded by his handsome career: "..." What are those spy movies going on! Only the scenery was captured, and the danger was not captured. A high school student was taken astray.
...By the way, high school students?
"You haven't graduated yet." Conan had an idea and reminded, "Who would recruit high school students to be agents? Their academic qualifications are not enough. You should at least wait until you graduate from college and have enough professional knowledge before applying."
Looking at the bright side, in five or six years, when this class graduates from college, the organization may have been overthrown. By then, this dangerous and terrifying “job” will naturally no longer exist.
Moreover, there are so many prestigious professions in the world. After graduation, Jiang Xia may look at other professions and completely forget about the intention of "becoming a colleague of Chongchu Subaru".
Jiang Xia thought about it and didn't know if he heard it.
At this time, several people came in the corridor.
Mao Lilan stuck his head out from the door, looked at the two people in the lounge, and asked doubtfully: "Jiang Xia, Conan? What are you doing here? It's already late, it's time to go back, we have to catch a flight tomorrow."
…
Although Conan is still very concerned about losing Subaru. But now that everyone has run away, it has no meaning for him to continue to stay in this magic venue.
Before leaving, Conan stood on the street and looked back at the gloomy venue. He couldn't help but frown: "..." What exactly does "stage" mean?
Speaking of this trip, today's magic show is the only one that best fits the word "stage". But judging from Subaru's previous reaction, things seemed to be far from that simple.
Conan: "..." And what happened to the eucalyptus tonight? Could this be what "the adult" behind the woman in black expected to see?
But no matter how you look at it, this is just an ordinary murder, no different from the murderers you usually encounter - the murderer's motive for the murder is complete, and his technique is very suitable for his identity as a magician and scriptwriter, and so is the deceased. For a guy who loves to offend others, this incident will happen sooner or later, regardless of Subaru's presence or not.
...Unless the magician's identity is special, causing him to be targeted by the organization?
With this in mind, Conan avoided Mao Lilan and Jiang Xia, quietly approached Haiyuan Ai, an insider of the organization, and asked in a low voice: "Do you think the magician who died tragically tonight was actually a member of the organization? Now that he has betrayed the organization, he is being hunted by a certain cadre?"
Hui Yuan Ai turned her head and glanced at him. Although she didn't say anything, her eyes seemed to say: Just him?
"Isn't it..."
Conan scratched his head, remembering Haihara Ai's keen perception of the members of the organization, coupled with his own impression of the magician, and finally silently ruled out this conjecture - the magician really didn't look like someone from the organization.
"It seems that the breaking point is still with Mr. Chong Shi. It's a pity that I was only paying attention to him and didn't notice him." Conan felt a little regretful, but now there was no use regretting it. He could only find a way to remedy it.
With this in mind, Conan turned to the all-powerful Dr. Ali and tugged on the corner of his clothes: "Doctor, please help me check the relevant information about Mr. Okinawa - any information will do."
After a pause, he added: "By the way, there is also the situation of the magician."
Although it is unlikely, it must be ruled out rigorously.
