Beside   , Hui Yuanai leaned in the seat which was very huge for her, feeling the dim surrounding environment, hiding in it, and had a rare sense of security.

Jiang Xia got a basket of popcorn from somewhere, and while Jiang Xia was busy talking to Inspector Yasa, Hui Yuanai poked her head over to have a look, stretched out her little hand to grab a handful, hugged it in front of her, and ate it. By the way, I also handed some to Mao Lilan next to me.

  Mao Lilan shook her head, but did not answer. Her hands are very busy now—busy covering her eyes.

  The magicians in this troupe have the same performance style as his poster, and they all choose dangerous magic tricks that are scary and scary, as if they will die on the spot in the next second.

In addition to the most basic magic box cutting, of course there are other kinds of performances, such as tying the assistant to a huge roulette just now, throwing darts on the roulette to hit the balloon that the assistant is holding obliquely, including this A terrifying magic trick that was about to be performed.

  —There is a huge instrument on the stage, like a simple four-poster bed, but there are many circular holes on the bed board.

  And above, parallel to the bed board, hangs a steel plate of equal size. On the steel plate are densely packed sharp knives, and the tips of the knives can correspond to the holes on the bed board below.

"He probably wants to lie on that steel plate, and then let the sharp knife on the top drop down." Hui Yuanai grabbed a small handful from the popcorn bucket in Jiang Xia's hand again, not very appreciative of this kind of magic, "Just It can be said to be curious, but it has no sense of beauty.”

  Mao Lilan: "..." Xiao Ai is too calm, isn't this magic really not that scary, but I'm just too timid?

  She silently put down the hand covering her eyes, and tentatively looked towards the stage. Just in time to see the magician Bangbang knocking those spikes—the dull texture tells the audience that the sharp metal spikes are real.

  Mao Lilan immediately covered his eyes again: "No, no! If the stabbing continues like this, there will be blood holes all over his body!"

   It seems that Mao Lilan is not the only one who feels scared.

  The magician glanced at the venue where there were constant discussions, nodded secretly in satisfaction, and then lay down on that terrible steel bed.

  The beautiful female assistants bent down, tied his hands and feet firmly with straps, and then surrounded the bed with a piece of cloth, blocking the figure of the magician.

  Maolilan's hands covered her eyes more firmly.

  Beside, Conan was unable to get a word out of Okiya Subaru for the time being, and suddenly found the audience around him screaming in a low voice, so he also looked curiously at the stage.

He saw through the use of this mechanism at a glance, and comforted Mao Lilan: "Don't worry, the 'bandage' on his hands and feet is actually just a Velcro, and he can open it by himself. The moment the curtain blocks his sight, he can Get rid of those things smoothly, and hide in the gap behind."

  Mao Lilan: "...This is also taught by your brother Jiang Xia?"

  Conan froze: "Haha, yes, I learned a lot from him."

  Mao Lilan knocked him on the head: "Then next time, I will learn from your brother Jiang Xia, and don't suddenly spoil the performance!"

  Conan: "..." Didn't I see you nervous, so I helped you get rid of nervous factors in advance...

  He was smiling sarcastically, but at this moment, he suddenly noticed that Okiya Subaru on the other side sat up nervously.

   "?" Conan paid close attention to this mysterious graduate student, and immediately turned his head to look at him, "What's wrong?!"

  Okiya Subaru didn't know whether to say it or not. After a while, he hesitated and raised his hand, and quietly gestured at an angle that would not be seen by other spectators.

Hui Yuan Ai was also staring at the stage just now, but she could see it clearly. She stopped eating popcorn and said with a serious expression, "That magician opened and closed his palms just now—it wasn't when he commissioned it just now. Tell our 'emergency signal'?"

—If I remember correctly, the magician specially told him before that once he makes that gesture, even if he is in the middle of the performance, the detective must immediately rush to the stage to stop the performance, because it is very likely that a member of the troupe made a move on the equipment in order to kill him. hands and feet.

And this large piece of equipment in front of him seems to be an excellent chance to kill—as long as the magician cannot escape from the steel knife bed in time according to the planned plan, then he will be ruined and die on the spot because of a "performance accident" superior.

   "Emergency signal?!" Superintendent Asa's hearing was surprisingly good. Although he only spoke a few words, the "commission" and the "emergency signal" made him quickly guess the current situation.

——If normally, Inspector Asa would still have doubts about this, then after experiencing yesterday, after encountering Jiang Xia and the series of unimaginable murders, he has no doubt that there is really a scene going on at this moment on the stage. Murder plot.

  Seeing Jiang Xia standing up suddenly, Inspector Yasa also jumped up immediately, and rushed to the stage one step ahead of him. At the same time, he raised his police badge and ordered: "Stop the show immediately!"

  However, as a calm middle-aged man, he was wearing dark clothes today. It was very inconspicuous in the dimly lit audience area after the lights were turned off, and the sound was drowned in the music not long after it came out.

  Not to mention the actors on stage, even the audience in the aisle didn't notice him. In the middle of the run, Inspector Yasa tripped over a leg that was randomly propped in the aisle, and almost fell straight onto the stage with a grunt.

  Jiang Xia ran a few steps, and before his head hit the edge of the stage, he pulled him back hard: "..."...Why do these middle-aged people love to wrestle so much.

  Almost at the same time, on the stage, the assistants who were alarmed by Inspector Asagi shrank instinctively, and the mechanisms in their hands were pulled.

  The steel plate full of steel blades on the top of the steel knife bed fell heavily with a "boom", accompanied by countless small piercing sounds.

  There is a curtain around the four-poster bed, which just blocks the body of the magician, but the foot of the bed can be seen.

   A group of people lowered their gazes, and at this moment, the half-meter-long spikes pierced through the bed board, protruding from below. The blood flowed down the cone-shaped spikes and fell to the ground drop by drop, forming a terrifying pool of blood.

   "..."

  In the auditorium, Okiya Subaru hissed, and he couldn't bear to cover his eyes.

   Haibara Ai took a peek at him, but she calmed down a little: Subaru Okiya's current reaction is not like what an organization cadre should have, and even some peripheral members will behave more indifferently than him. This kind of person may be regarded as waste in the organization, but it undoubtedly makes people feel safer outside.

   While speculating about this graduate student, she imitated Jiang Xia's way of reasoning, and touched her chin casually.

   Then he froze slightly.

  Two seconds later, Huihara Ai silently took out a pack of wet wipes and began to wipe the sugar stains on her fingers and chin.
