Chapter 182
"Phantom thief, you don't want someone to be killed by the shadow mage when I arrest you, do you?"
The corners of Fujino's mouth curled up slightly, and his fists were slightly clenched, showing in front of Kuroba Kaito.
"........."
Kuroba Kaito glanced at Fujino's fist as big as a sandbag, swallowed, and couldn't help being speechless for a while.
Well, this guy should be blackmailing him, right?
No, it shouldn’t be, this is definitely blackmailing him!
Although he also saw that Fujino was extorting.
But he still intends to pay 50 yen.
There was no way, even though he was suspected of being taken advantage of, what the other party said made sense.
Every profession has its own rules.
He has his own rules as a magician.
I have to say that Fujino is the sixth child.
Severely grasped his psychology.
The purpose of his coming this time is to comfort Murai Fuden's family.
If he guessed correctly, then the woman named Kikue Tanaka should be the daughter or granddaughter of Murai Fuden.
Of course, the so-called comfort is nothing more than encouragement.
Well, he didn't want to see anyone die in this party, and he definitely didn't give in because of the other party's... violence.
"I don't have 50 yen in cash right now..."
"No cash?"
Fujino frowned.
Well, although 50 yen is not too much, if it is converted into cash, at least fifty ten thousand yen bills are needed.
Most people really don’t carry so much cash with them.
After a pause, Fujino asked again: "Then did you bring your bank card?"
"Bank card?"
Kuroba Kaito was stunned, "I do have a bank card."
"That's good."
Fujino took out a black mobile POS machine: "I support mobile payment here."
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
Good guy, good guy.
Do you carry things like mobile POS machines with you?
No, where did you take out the mobile POS machine from?
Looking at the mobile POS machine that Fujino casually took out from somewhere like him, Kuroba Kaito was speechless for a while.
Speechless, he took out a bank card from nowhere, swiped it on Fujino's mobile POS machine, and entered the password.
As a phantom thief, his bank card is of course encrypted, and he didn't handle it as high school detective Kaito Kuroba, so he doesn't think that the operation of swiping his card will reveal his identity.
Even if the other party uses the bank card information to track it down, it will only end up with an empty number from the Swiss bank.
[System balance to account: 50 yen]
A pleasant reminder sounded in Fujino's ears.
The smile on Fujino's face gradually eased a lot. After putting away the mobile POS machine, he patted Kaito Kuroba on the shoulder: "Happy cooperation, customer."
"Ha ha……"
This attitude changed really quickly.
Kuroba Kaito asked Fujino: "So what information do you need me to provide?"
"You joined the group earlier, I think you should know something about Shadow Mage."
Fujino asked: "Is there any conflict between Shadow Mage and Escape King before I join the group?"
"contradiction?"
Kaito Kuroba thought for a moment, and then replied: "Contradictory, the two of them did have a big quarrel before because of Murai's gossip, probably before you came into this chat room, the shadow mage suddenly said something: 'This A great magician will die, and you are the ones who killed me', I can understand this sentence, Ikasama boy is Murai rumor, half a year ago we discussed the matter of escaping magic, after that, it may be because In anticipation of the people in the chat room, Mr. Murai held the last magic in a short while."
"The last magic trick?"
"That's right, during that escape magic, Mr. Murai passed away due to an accident..."
Speaking of this, Kaito Kuroba suddenly frowned.
Obviously, as a magician, he also regretted the death of that magician.
"If we look at the current situation, the murderer is likely to be Mr. Murai's magic lover. After learning that the people in this chat room asked Mr. Murai to perform magic again and died, he wanted to avenge Mr. Murai. And revenge on everyone in the chat room."
Fujino gave the current reasoning results based on the evidence currently available, without involving spoilers.
"Dong dong!"
At this time, there was a knock on the door: "Mr. Doi, we have already prepared dinner."
"I see!"
Kuroba Kaito restored Tucker Doi's voice and responded.
"Okay, let's go eat."
Fujino turned around and opened the door.
"Are you still in the mood to eat?"
Kaito Kuroba stood up from the bed he was sitting on, "There is still a murderer watching us from the dark, planning to kill us."
"People are iron rice is steel."
Fujino waved his hand indifferently, "We have no way to take the initiative to attack this kind of situation where the enemy is clear and we are dark. We can only wait for the Shadow Mage to be exposed. With you, the ever-changing strange thief, and me, the dark detective, the Shadow Mage can't help but wait." As long as there is a slight movement, it will be exposed."
"Right……"
Kuroba Kaito recalled that night, Fujino held up a wooden knife, jumped two or three meters, chasing the scene where the spider was hacking, and couldn't help but nodded.
Laughing to death, which blind person dares to do something in front of this guy.
The time has come to afternoon.
Because it is winter, the days are short and the nights are long, so before six o'clock, the sky is already groggy.
A group of people came to the table, except Conan.
Since Fujino fed Conan two small magical cold medicines in advance, under the effect of the cold medicines, he has now slept like a dead dog.
At the dinner table, everyone in the magic chat room began to discuss their favorite Japanese magician.
"For a magician, Black Feather Pirates One."
Fujino casually mentioned a magician he was most familiar with.
"I also prefer Black Feather Pirate One."
Aragi said the same thing.
Black Feather Pirates had apparently died eight years ago.
Although he has been dead for many years, as a representative of the magic era, there are still a large number of magic fans.
Especially people of Huang Yize's age.
Kuroba Kaito glanced at Fujino in surprise, but he didn't expect Fujino to be his father's fan.
After a pause, he echoed, "I am the same."
"I admire Yoshiro Kinoshita, who is full of titles at the age of 20."
Hamano Toshi also said the same.
"Why do you all like dead magicians... I still prefer Sanada Izuzo who is still alive."
Kuroda Naoko complained, and then asked Xiaolan and Yuyuanzi: "Do you two have a favorite magician?"
"If you want to talk about my favorite magician..."
Sonoko paused, a girlish blush appeared on her face, "Of course it's Kaitou Kidd!"
"But, Phantom Thief Kidd is a thief..."
"And it's not certain that he is the Neon Man."
"I fought him twice."
At this time, Fujino suddenly said: "I can be sure, he is the Neon Man, although the disguise is very good, but my intuition can be sure..."
After a pause, Fujino went on to say: "And in terms of magic techniques, Kaitou Kidd's magic is indeed very powerful. As for whether he is a magician... I don't think only those who perform magic on the magic stage are magicians." That's right."
After saying that, Fujino asked Kuroba Kaito meaningfully: "Is that right, Mr. Doi?"
"Haha... I think it's the same. The magic stage is not unique."
Kuroba Kaito smiled awkwardly.
…………
After lunch, the tableware was packed, and everyone began to discuss the arrangements for the sideshow after the evening party.
Originally, it should have been arranged by the organizer of this party, Escape King.
But the Escape King was dead and was not there.
The phone line was also disconnected inexplicably.
Therefore, under the leadership of Hamano Toshiya, everyone adopted the method of magic to decide.
Yuanzi was blindfolded, and a mark was drawn on the card with the name on it, representing who is the acting party host.
After that, Hamano Toshi also came to a wave of prophecy magic.
Naoko Kuroda is acting host, you guessed it.
Kikue Tanaka was in charge of boiling the bath water, so she guessed right.
But when it came to guessing the person in charge of the sideshow, he guessed wrong.
Originally, he guessed that it was Doi Tucker Tree, but in fact, it was himself.
After a decision is made, everyone is responsible for their own work.
Xiaolan and Sonoko went to see Conan who was still sleeping with a cold, Hamano Toshiya went upstairs to prepare the show, Arayoshi planned to go to the wine cellar to get some red wine, the college student who came to work went to the kitchen to prepare side dishes, Tanaka Kikue was Went to the demolition of the house to boil hot water.
"You should have noticed something about the magic just now, right?"
Fujino walked slowly to Kaito Kuroba and asked.
"Well, very simple magic."
Kaito Kuroba nodded, "If I'm not mistaken just now, Kikue Tanaka who performed the magic should be the one who did it. Before that guy Hamano prepared the magic, Kikue Tanaka fixed those cards and executed those magic tricks." employees."
"Don't you find it strange?"
Fujino asked suddenly.
"strangeness?"
"If it is someone who has been fixed in advance, then why did Hamano Toshiya say that you are the person in charge of the sideshow?"
Kuroba Kaito was stunned when he heard this and looked at Fujino in surprise: "You mean..."
"If my guess is correct, then the person who was supposed to prepare the sideshow should be you, but for some reason it became him."
After a pause, Fujino continued: "The only person who can make this kind of change is Kikue Tanaka, who has made preparations in advance, but why does she want to change the person who was originally fixed? Is there a purpose for doing this?"
"Did you mean that?!"
Kuroba Kaito swallowed: "Kikue Tanaka is the shadow mage?"
"That's not yet known."
Fujino shook his head, then turned his gaze upstairs, "The two of us will find out when we go up and have a look."
