People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 280 Magic, leading to the cheers of reversal (7)

For now, if it is said that it was Kazuzo Sanada who killed someone.

So the first evidence to be found is the so-called [inflatable dummy].

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Kazuzo Sanada was still inside the lobby while Kaito Kid appeared outside the lobby.

(However, it is possible that Sanada Kazuzo had accomplices and that the crime was committed by multiple people.)
(This possibility is not high, after all, there is a big difference between using real people and using dummies in flying magic.)
(The real person also has to consider the speed of the wire and physical factors, but the dummy only needs to rush forward.)
Xiang Yuanguang held the coffee and took a sip.

His eyes wandered all over the Queen Serissabeth.

As one of the guardian knights invited by the Suzuki family to protect the Black Pearl Black Star.

Before the memorial service began, he had already learned about the structure and layout of the Queen Cesarebah.

Therefore, when it comes to searching and collecting evidence, Hedgehog Head is actually more efficient than those police officers in the Criminal Department.

"Mr. Xiang Yuan, do you think Shinichi is really Kaito Kidd?"

"I always feel like something is not right..."

Mao Lilan followed behind Xiang Yuanguang and said hesitantly.

The Death God elementary school student at the back sighed.

Of course not, isn’t Kudo Shinichi standing behind you now?
"Let's talk about this issue after the case is over."

"No matter what his true identity is, he is now my client——"

Xiang Yuanguang's gaze lingered for a moment on the invisible platform near the ceiling of the lobby.

Well, there must be more than one secret room that the magician is going to use, there must be at least three.

It's like the preparation rooms of two magicians from the Miracle Magic Troupe, Kazuzo Sanada and Asako Miyoshi, are different.

The location of Jiujiu Motoyasu's preparation room must also be different from that of the two magician students.

If there is a hiding place for the dummy, it is undoubtedly in the yet-to-be-discovered...

Inside the secret room prepared by Kyujuku Motoyasu, the leader of the Miracle Magic Group and the deceased in this case.

"——————If he is innocent, I will make sure he is innocent."

"He's guilty, and I'll make sure he's guilty, it's that simple."

Hedgehog Head spoke very calmly.

But in fact, he knew that whether it was Kudo Shinichi or Kuroba Kaito.

They are the type who won't kill anyone unless there is a blame on them.

Ninety-nine percent of them are innocent, and I don't say 100 percent because I don't want to say enough.

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go up there and take a look."

"Ms. Lan, please take Conan to the monitoring room and check the surveillance records from yesterday."

“I remember there should be two or three surveillance cameras installed on the deck.”

"This lawsuit would have been much easier if the surveillance records had remained intact."

The Shinigami pupil nodded slightly.

Although I don’t know why, Xiang Yuan is extremely fond of surveillance cameras.

Surveillance cameras were installed in his own office and also on the Queen Serissabeth.

However, if there are surveillance records, it will be much easier to solve the case.

With just a few steps, Xiang Yuanguang jumped up and grabbed an invisible platform above with ease.

Then, he turned around and flipped over to the top of the platform and began to look for the preparation room hidden by Jiujiu Yuankang.

In response, Mao Lilan slapped her face, trying to sober herself up.

Then, he regained some spirit and spoke loudly.

"Okay, Conan, let's also find evidence to prove Shinichi's innocence!"

...is to find evidence to prove Kaito Kid's innocence.

You need to be careful with your language, Conan thought to himself.

No matter what the situation was with the two people below, Xiang Yuanguang had already walked around the intermittent hidden platforms.

Strangely enough, he only found the secret room that Miyoshi Mako was preparing.

Not to mention the secret room prepared by Kujuku Motoyasu, even the secret room prepared by Sanada Kazuzo was not found.

The hedgehog scratched his head, feeling that there was something wrong with his thinking.

(No, the magician prepares the secret room for the effect when he appears on stage. Miyoshi Mako's secret room is here.)
(It means that Asako Miyoshi will appear here, and Ichizo Sanada will appear on the ceiling at the beginning.)
(There was also a steel cable hanging behind him, which should have extended from his preparation room.)
Xiang Yuanguang recalled the scene last night when he cracked Sanada Kazuzo's flying magic.

The sight wanders in mid-air, combined with the unchanged furnishings and arrangements below the lobby.

With an idea, he looked up above the hidden platform, somewhere closest to the ceiling.

The next moment, the hedgehog head jumped up and grabbed upwards.

Sure enough, the seemingly empty wall was actually just an invisible cloth.

A little space was left in front of the cloth, probably to make it easier for Kazuzo Sanada to find his own secret room.

He quickly turned over, pulled open the invisible cloth to look at what was inside.

Wire ropes for flying magic tricks… feed for pigeons… playing cards…

There are some miscellaneous small magic props, most of which are spare ones.

However, Hedgehog Head was not discouraged. After all, he had assumed from the beginning that the inflatable dummy was hidden in the secret room of Ninety-Nine Yuan Kang.

At this moment, an uninvited guest appeared on the login channel—Kaito Kuroba.

"Oh, I heard there was a murder case involving a magician here, so I came to see what's going on."

Kuroba Kaito, wearing the Ekoda High School uniform, was grinning.

Inspector Nakamori next to him suddenly perked up.

Very good, the Magic foreign aid he was looking for is here now.

It seems that the truth behind the [Kaito Kid murder case] is just around the corner!
At the same time, in the monitoring room.

The investigation officer in charge sighed.

"No, a lot of footage from the surveillance footage was cut out."

“In addition, the surveillance cameras in some places were completely dark, probably because they were covered with tape.”

"I don't think there's much difference between having it or not, so I'll make a copy for you."

Xiaolan nodded a little disappointed, but still thanked him.

"Ok, thank you!"

(Exhibit [surveillance footage from the Queen Cesarabile incident on the day of the incident] has been added to the court record.)
Conan's gaze lingered briefly on each clip of the surveillance footage being played.

Then, with a sudden start, I realized what the problem was.

(Time, there is a problem with the monitoring record time.)
(The surveillance footage in the lobby showed the room turning completely dark as smoke bombs were deployed and the crowd was agitated.)
(Kaito Kid had no reason to do this. At that time... the murderer was inside the lobby.)
(Could it be that the real murderer is Kazuzo Sanada?)
(After the smoke bomb exploded, he rushed into the fog, then dealt with the surveillance camera, went outside to shoot Jiujiu Yuankang, then disposed of the magic props, and then returned to the scene as if nothing had happened and pretended to be surprised.)
(Using reverse thinking to eliminate the suspicion of murder?)

Conan adjusted his glasses, feeling like something was wrong.

At this time, noisy sounds were heard outside the monitoring room.

"Hurry, come and prepare the magic props. We are going to review the murder magic that happened on the day of the crime!"

This is...Inspector Nakamori's voice!

Replay the murder magic trick on the day of the crime? Could it be that Xiang Yuan has already cracked the entire murder process?

Conan's eyes flashed with surprise.

At this moment, Hedgehog Head was standing in the secret room prepared by Jiujiu Yuankang, letting the police next to him record the evidence.

But he was even more confused than Conan in the monitoring room.

(What the hell? The one who can replay a magic trick is a magician? Could it be that Kazuzo Sanada himself is here?)
