People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 532: Source Flow Magic…?
"…What is this, a game CG?"

Conan, who was lying in an empty ward somewhere in the corridor and observing through the small gap in the ward door, complained.

What Housheng Reito said just now was obviously telling him that Noah's Ark would be killed in the next plot.

If the two game players don't leave, there is a high probability that they will be killed together by the plot.

If Gina doesn't leave, it will just be a simple CG clip, and she will be a witness to a murder case or something like that...

Although this is the truth, Conan feels that some things don't have to be done according to the pace of the game.

Well, he squatted at the crack of the door to see who was going to shoot him. As soon as the other party appeared, he threw an anesthetic needle over.

By then, the cocoon game will be speed-run, and all diseases will be cured. Why would there be any need for any unnecessary steps of reasoning?
Unfortunately, just as he and Haibara Ai walked out of the room and hid in the ward, they heard gunshots from the ward.

Then there was Officer Gina, who was supposed to be in the ward but appeared outside the ward for no apparent reason...

"Detective, did you see the gunman clearly?"

Haibara Ai stood aside, her tone was cold, but she probably wasn't angry.

According to Conan's judgment, the other party would not be angry because he pushed him aside and could not see the plot CG.

Therefore, the Death God Elementary School Student just sighed and then shook his head.

"Nothing at all. All you can see is the gunman wearing a cape and what looks like a half-mask covering his face."

"How should I put it? It looks very similar to the outfit that Shikoku's Xiang Yuan guy wore when he was dressed up as a black magician."

"…Dark magician? Isn't he a lawyer? And he can do magic?"

Haibara Ai asked with some surprise, and Conan answered this question as if it was a matter of course.

"Of course. You've seen him do magic, so why are you surprised that he can do magic?"

Crunch————-
The Death Elementary School Student pushed open the door, raised his watch, and thought for a moment about the completely inaccurate time on it.

Then he waved decisively at Huibara Ai, indicating that she should leave the hospital with him and start the investigation.

Then when the police arrive, they will be charged for another half a day, and by then the progress of the investigation will be completely delayed.

(I don’t know how the Junior Detective Team’s investigation is going. They should have found 221B Baker Street, right…?)

Conan walked in front, and Haibara Ai followed behind. She stared at Conan who was thinking.

I quietly thought about what it would be like to show magic to Genkou, and the final picture I imagined was————

The Hedgehog Head shouted loudly, his clothes exploded, and then he shouted to move the items, and then punched the bottle and sent it flying ten meters away...

"Plop..."

"why are you laughing?"

"Great Detective, do you care?"

“…I really don’t understand you girls.”

Conan walked in front, confused, picked up his detective badge, and then contacted the Junior Detective League.

I want to investigate five aspects at the same time: lawyers, prosecutors, judges, professors, and police stations.

It would be impossible for him and Haibara Ai to do it alone, so they must rely on the power of the Junior Detective League!

I believe that with the amazing wisdom of the members of the Junior Detective Team, investigating such a small matter should be easy, right?
--------

"...I guess he's probably been captured."

Lawyer Naruhodō put on a scary look, which made the members of the Junior Detective League nervous.

However, he couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing, completely destroying the previous atmosphere.

"Haha, sorry, sorry, it was just a little joke. Ms. Alice's words..."

"He is a ten-year-old doctor of medicine. He may even be better than Sherlock Holmes in his reasoning ability."

"She's not contacting us right now. Maybe she's just still investigating, right?"

Sitting in a nearby cafe, Lawyer Naruhodō said cheerfully.

However, this made Mao Lilan a little confused, because Lawyer Naruhodō was a friend of Miss Alice.

Why did they choose to take them to a cafe when they were already at the door of 221B Baker Street? Normally, shouldn't they go directly into the room of 221B Baker Street to investigate together?

However, although there are some doubts, at present, Naruhodō's lawyers seem to be a friendly party.

At least now, Ran Mouri does not feel any malice from lawyer Naruhodō. Perhaps this is her intuition as a high school girl?

"Look, this is my partner, Hat-kun. He's awesome, isn't he?"

The girl who came with Lawyer Naruhodō took out a wooden doll from somewhere.

The wooden doll put on the girl's cloak and hat, and the wooden joints of its mouth moved up and down as it spoke.

"Hello, I'm Hat-kun."

"Wow, that's amazing...! The doll can actually talk!"

The three little ones had gleams in their eyes and were totally oblivious to what lawyer Naruhodō was saying.

"Well... this is a common occurrence."

Lawyer Naruhodō was not surprised by this and turned his head to look outside the cafe.

Then, Mao Lilan, who was sitting opposite, finally couldn't help but ask.

"Um... Mr. Naruhodō, may I ask... what's going on with this wooden doll?"

"I once saw a similar doll next to a friend of mine..."

That was in the ward in Shikoku, where Yuanguang was shot and underwent surgery overnight.

As a result, his injuries were almost healed in just a few days, and he was even happily doing handicrafts in the ward.

The crafted content is very similar to the wooden doll that the girl next to Lawyer Naruhodō has taken out.

...No, it cannot be said to be similar, it can almost be said that they are carved from the same mold.

The only difference is that Mr. Xiang Yuan's doll has no beard or hat, has more arms, and has a white decoration on the top.

Because Xiang Yuanguang had vowed to throw this magic puppet at the speed of sound to cause damage.

Therefore, although Mao Lilan had seen this doll only a few times, her memory of it was extremely deep.

After all, the black magician doesn't just talk, he can really make the puppet Sonic rush out and hit people.

"…Oh, your friend? Um, coincidence, right? Coincidence."

Lawyer Naruhodō seemed a little surprised. He turned his head thoughtfully, making it impossible to see the change in his expression.

However, the girl next to Lawyer Naruhodō spoke angrily.

"What? Magic puppets that rely on brute force alone can't be considered magic!"

"The bond between me and Hat-kun cannot be overcome by ordinary brute force!"

"You're right, [Dad]!"

……dad?
Mao Lilan blinked her eyes. She felt that their ages... seemed to be a little mismatched.

Moreover, she hasn’t told you what Xiang Yuanguang’s magic doll looks like, so why is the girl so excited?

Sure enough, Mr. Xiang Yuan's magic puppet is related to the magic puppet of this NPC in the game...

“… Could it be that this is [Source-oriented magic]…?”

"Ah, source-oriented magic... that's not it...!!!"

The magical girl loudly corrected Mao Lilan's misconception.

"This is [Orishinjiki-ryu Magic]!"

"Haha, so energetic...Okay, miss, the person we are waiting for has arrived."

Lawyer Naruhodō suddenly interrupted the conversation between Mouri Ran and the magical girl.

He turned his head to look at Conan and Haibara Ai who appeared outside the door, and a hint of inexplicable meaning flashed in his eyes.

"It's almost time to reunite. We still have a lot of things to do."
