Chapter 290 Two More Magic Shows
Although Yuji Momochi only recently became a student of Motoyasu Tsukumo and joined the Miracle Magic Troupe, the Japanese magic circle is only so big, and they had actually been paying attention to this talented junior for a long time.
I conducted research and assessments before he joined, so I know him very well.
Kujuku Shichi quickly stepped in to smooth things over, stopping Momochi Yuuji, who seemed to be provoking her: "These two are not magicians, but very famous detectives, Mr. Akutagawa and Mr. Mori."
Yuji Momochi looked quite surprised, after all, he was unaware of the inside story, and having just joined the Miracle Magic Troupe, he could hardly be said to have a deep master-disciple relationship with Motoyasu Tsukumo.
Therefore, he couldn't understand why the two detectives had come here.
"What's wrong? Don't you know?"
A rather dashing-looking woman walked over and beckoned the released pigeons over: "They're here, of course, to investigate the true cause of Professor Motoyasu's death."
Next, this Miyoshi Mako demonstrated what real Detective Conan magic looks like.
Although they noticed that Miyoshi Asako was putting her hand on Ran's shoulder to attract her attention, the pigeons took the opportunity to sneak into Ran's clothes.
Putting aside how so many pigeons managed to avoid being seen, even when they burrowed into Xiaolan's clothes and didn't move, not only could it not be seen from the outside, but Xiaolan also couldn't feel it.
Sure enough, no matter what, all of Detective Conan's magic tricks have some magical elements involved.
At least the ground where Xiaolan was standing didn't have any magical mechanisms.
It was clear that the genius magician was very satisfied with her performance. He smiled, turned to his junior brother, and said arrogantly, "Since you've already shown the dove, you should at least do this much, right?"
When it comes to magic, if you can't beat someone else, you just can't. Fortunately, Yuuji Momochi was used to Asako Miyoshi's personality and calmly changed the subject: "But didn't the teacher commit suicide? What are Detective Akutagawa and Detective Mori doing here?"
Miyoshi Asako crossed her arms, her expression complex: "Because the teacher isn't the kind of person who would commit suicide, and those playing cards are also suspicious."
"Playing cards?"
Tsukumo Nanae once again took out the two playing cards stuck together from her bag: "These are them. They were on the table in the basement where my husband collapsed. Don't you find that strange?"
Yuji Momochi looked on with great confusion: "But isn't this a card magic trick? The police also said that the teacher committed suicide."
It's clear that the police still have credibility. Inspector Megure will surely be pleased to know this. Even if he found them here, he would probably suspect it was a murder case at first glance.
Just then, a hand reached out, took the playing card that should have been important evidence, and tore it up.
"That's right, that's right. Even if you turn the whole house upside down now, it won't do you any good."
Then, he reached out and tossed the fragments aside, scattering them like playing cards of various suits.
"The only certainty now is that the Miracle Magic Company now only has one of its two geniuses left."
As Kogoro Mori rushed forward and grabbed Ichizo Sanada by the collar, angrily accusing him of destroying evidence, Hiko Akutagawa withdrew his admiring gaze.
The two torn playing cards were obviously not the originals. The original two had long been moved through the cuffs to the breast pocket of Kogoro Mouri's classic suit, while the torn pieces were on another cuff.
Sanada Ichizo, who knew everything except that Miyoshi Asako was preparing to take action against Tsukumo Fumino, did not want the detectives to get involved.
After all, it is a fact that Motoyasu Tsukumo, out of jealousy and in order to protect his position in the magic world, impulsively caused the death of Asako Miyoshi's brother.
We are now prepared. If we are killed by Miyoshi Asako, it will be atonement, and we will let the three of them continue to lead the Miracle Magic Troupe.
I don't know why, but in the end, they left out that clue, which caused the whole incident to take another turn and attracted two famous detectives.
If we really discover something—
Sanada Ichizo sighed. He wavered when he saw the state of Tsukumo Motoyasu's death. After cutting the thin thread on the ring, he plugged the telephone line back in.
He treated Tsukumo Motoyasu like a father, so naturally he was more emotionally biased towards him. He couldn't say for sure whether he wanted Miyoshi Asako to be imprisoned.
"Let me make this clear from the start: if you don't want to damage the famous detective's good reputation, you'd better leave now."
Feeling humiliated by being tricked, Kogoro Mori watched his departing figure and muttered, "Hmph, his magic teacher is dead, and he can still act like it doesn't matter."
"That's a basic quality of a magician. If others can see through your mind, many magic tricks will fall apart. The famous magician Kuroba Toichi always maintains a mysterious poker face."
Miyoshi Asako squatted down and fiddled with the playing cards on the ground: "That's definitely true, and Sanada's heart must be unsettled too. He's a perfectionist. There are many different suits on the back of these playing cards. He would never make such a mistake under normal circumstances."
Just as the group was discussing, a crisp, slightly surprised voice suddenly rang out: "Conan, it's you!"
This rather cute girl is none other than Tsukumo Fumino. She is currently unaware that her father has died and is sulking because he cannot attend her birthday party.
Seeing Conan again instantly eased much of my frustration.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Conan suddenly realized that this first-year student from Class A was none other than Motoyasu Tsukumo's daughter. Their Beika Elementary School was truly a place where hidden talents resided.
"What are you doing? Are you here to have fun?"
There seemed to be stars twinkling in Tsukumo Fumino's eyes. For a child of this age, it was a very prestigious thing for a popular classmate to come to her house to play, and she really wanted someone to play with her.
Because of Tsukumo Motoyasu's death, Ms. Nanae has almost no interest in focusing on tomorrow's celebration, and she still hasn't bought the clothes that Fumino should wear for her birthday.
Miyoshi Asako volunteered to take Fumino to pick out clothes.
Seeing this, Akutagawa patted Conan on the head. He was no longer needed here, so Conan should go and be someone's bodyguard. Although Conan always took extra care of children, there were exceptions.
Conan instantly understood and naturally began to whine, "I want to go too! It looks so fun!"
