People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 330 Magic, leading to the cheers of reversal (45)

—————May 23, 8:20 a.m.——————

—————Tokyo Third Courtroom, Lounge——————

Everything that needs to be investigated has been investigated, and everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared.

Conan is still chasing after the case and he will probably get the result soon.

Xiang Yuanguang was not surprised by this.

In this world, judging purely by the profession of detective, Conan should be the best one.

It doesn't mean that he is particularly outstanding in any one aspect, but that he ranks first overall in terms of the comprehensiveness of various values.

If Conan can't find the three members of the Junior Detective Team and Kujuku Fumino who were kidnapped this time.

That was probably really sent, and it probably wouldn't make any difference if he were to investigate.

After all, Asako Miyoshi, no, Sakura Kinoshita's black locks are really hard.

He went to the detention center last night and bombarded it for an hour, and the glass of the detention center was shaking.

As a result, the other person's black heart lock remained unmoved, shocking Hedgehog Head the whole night.

But it was not a complete failure, at least we got some new information that might be useful.

"…This is something that might affect you this time."

"Sorry, you'll be out a day later."

The hedgehog-haired lawyer closed the court records in his hand.

He looked at another person in the lounge——Kuroba Kaito who had a new hairstyle.

This famous thief magician seemed to be indifferent to this.

Of course, he definitely wouldn't tell Xiang Yuanguang that he went home and took a look last night.

I returned to the detention center only after ascertaining the specific situation at home.

"Anyway, no matter how the case progresses, my case will end in not guilty today."

"So, compared to this, I am more concerned about the progress of your investigation."

Kuroba Kaito put his hands in his pockets and stood up.

"Well, forget it. Let's leave the matters of the court to you experts in the court."

"But I can still help a little with things related to magic."

"In the case files you showed me before, all the magi who died were killed by the Unbinding Technique..."

"Well, it's a dangerous magic trick that only a master can perform."

"I think it has something to do with the identity of Jiujiu Yuankang himself, right?"

He stroked his chin, his tone calm.

"Because Jiujiu Motoyasu is an old man in the field of magicians, he can barely be considered a master."

"If the young genius succeeds in performing this kind of magic with a high risk factor."

"That was a young magician who was much more successful than him - that's why he took action at that time."

In other words, is it jealousy caused by the fear that one's own status is threatened?
Although it is very confusing, it seems to make sense in this world.

After all, in Beika Town, a tree growing in someone else's yard and its branches extending over the wall can be a motive for murder.

It is actually not so unacceptable to kill someone out of jealousy of their success.

(But, no matter what, he even killed his own students.)
(It seems that he really wants to eliminate all factors that may affect his status.)
He nodded silently to Genkou, his thoughts falling on the magic accident involving Yokoyama Yuki twelve years ago.

First, there was Hiroki Yokoyama, who performed the escapades, or escape magic.

The project is the Death Bed of Nails, which is one of the most classic tricks in escape magic.

The magician is fixed to an iron horizontal board, and then a nail bed with iron nails is hung above it.

Then white cloth was hung around the iron horizontal board, so that people could only see that someone seemed to be struggling inside.

Of course, some magicians simply surround the performance with iron plates to make it more secretive in order to reduce the difficulty.

Then, the magic assistant moves around in a pretentious manner, stirring up emotions.

The ropes holding the bed of nails are then cut, causing the bed of nails to fall, creating the illusion that the magician was killed by the bed of nails, when in fact, the belts restraining the magician were only an illusion.

It was just a decoration that could be lifted up directly.

While the magic assistant is stirring up the emotions, the magician himself moves to the other side of the black cloth.

After reaching a safe position, the magic assistant releases the nail bed, and then the magician sits on top of the nail bed.

This is to show the perfect realization of this escape technique——————

And it is puzzling that Hiroki Yokoyama died because of this.

Could it be that the magic assistants at that time were all Kyujuku Motoyasu's men, so they killed people intentionally?
Xiang Yuanguang didn't believe that there could be such a coincidence, the bed of nails or the horizontal board used to perform escape magic.

There must be some special mechanism - it's just that the time is too long.

Even if he came, it would be difficult to find the flaws.

However, his observation skills are not as strong as those of a great magician like Kaito Kidd.

But he was strong, and when he saw the other forensic police officers looking worried.

He simply lifted up the entire magic equipment and helped carry it from beginning to end.

It is said that Yokoyama Hiroki's magic assistant at the time was left with psychological trauma.

The owner of the magic venue volunteered to find him and said that he must bring the court back no matter what.

I don’t know if the final result will be as satisfactory as the boss said.

"If I remember correctly, the information you gave me about Takezawa Teruo is different from the coffin escape technique, right?"

"The magician is tied up and laid in a coffin while his assistant hammers nails into the lid."

“Then erect tall transparent glass panels around the perimeter and cover the soil from top to bottom.”

"When the soil layer is fully covered, the magic assistant pretends to be panicked and agitates the audience."

"Then dig out the sealed coffin, take out the nails, and show what's inside."

"The magician is walking out from the sidelines at this moment, taking his bow—"

Kuroba Kaito didn't even need to think, he knew how to do it.

The reason why these escape techniques are considered magic that can only be performed by masters is, of course, because of their dangerousness.

But in fact, since it can be used as magic, it must be repeatable.

"————There should be secret doors underneath the coffin, so the magician can leave directly through the secret door and go through the secret passage underground to the lounge that has been prepared long ago, and wait for the right time..."

"You can just walk out from the other side of the stage and enjoy the cheers and applause of your miraculous escape. The only place where you can do this is through the secret door."

Kaito Kidd doesn't even need to wait until the trial opens to check the evidence.

He can assert that -

In fact, this is true. It doesn’t matter if the restraints on your hands and feet are not untied because the coffin is only that big.

The mechanism corresponding to the secret door is definitely in a place where it can be easily touched.

Therefore, if a magician would be trapped and die in the coffin, it could only be that there was something wrong with the secret door.

"The rest is about the three magicians, Itagaki Asaichi, Tsuruoka Keisuke, and Kinoshita Yoshiro."

"Kichiro Kinoshita's handcuffs were changed, which eventually led to his drowning in the water tank."

"And Itagaki Asaichi..."

After listening to Kaito Kidd's words, Xiang Yuanguang touched his chin and was about to talk about the next magician.

But the door suddenly opened at this moment, and the bailiff stuck his head out timidly.

"Lawyer, the court is about to start. The presiding judge urges you to appear and defend the case."

The hedgehog-headed lawyer and Kaito Kid exchanged glances.

It seems that the rest can only be discussed in the courtroom.

"Let's go."
