Chapter 110: The Murder of a Superpower
The host, Takayuki Harada, walked to the round table, took a spoon casually, knocked it twice on the table, and flicked it twice with his fingers, and said to the audience: "This is indeed an ordinary spoon, there is nothing special about it." β
Immediately afterward, Harada handed the spoon to Sagimi and said to him, "Mr. Sagimi, please start your performance." β
Sagimi smiled slightly, walked over to Harada, and took the spoon.
I saw that he was holding the handle of the spoon with his right hand, and his left hand was bluffing, constantly shaking back and forth against the spoon. At the same time, his face was very serious, staring intently at the spoon.
After four or five seconds, the handle of the spoon actually twisted.
In order to prevent the audience from seeing clearly, the photography also gave a close-up and projected the picture on the large screen above. The audience was amazed when they saw this magical scene.
Yoko Okino and the two hosts were also shocked by this scene, with an incredible look on their faces. Zero and Reiko's faces didn't change much, as if there was nothing unusual about the situation in front of them.
Zero thought that the texture of the spoon was not very hard, and that the handle could be twisted as long as he applied pressure with his fingers.
Just as she was thinking this, Akuya's voice suddenly came to her head: "Zero, he's a real superpower!" β
"It's just a trick."
"It's not a trick, I did feel a slight fluctuation of spiritual power just now, and that Shirumi Jiro is indeed a superpower. It's just that his superpower is very weak, at most to the extent of breaking a spoon, and if he changes to a harder spoon, he can't bend it. β
"You can still feel spiritual power?"
"yes, I can feel all the special powers, didn't I tell you?"
You mentioned that there are ghosts, didn't you say that you are no different from ordinary people after you materialize?
Just as Zero was about to continue to respond to Akuya, the voice of the host Harada came: "Miss Kaneda, you just said that seeing is believing, as long as you see the superpower with your own eyes, you will believe in its existence." So how do you feel about this scene in front of you? β
Zero was still thinking about the wording, and didn't pick up immediately, while Suzuko Sakuma on the side took the first step and said: "With all due respect, this is just a clumsy method, not a superpower at all!" β
Although Reiko believes in the existence of superpowers, after watching Sagimi's performance, she thinks the same as Zero's previous thoughts, and thinks that Sagimi has used a small trick.
The hostess Asako Mizutani asked, "Miss Sakuma, you said this is a means, please tell me what is going on?" β
"It's very simple. The spoon is not hard and is inherently easy to bend. As long as you secretly exert your fingers while holding the spoon, you can gradually bend the handle of the spoon. β
Mizutani continued, "Since Miss Sakuma said so, please come on stage and demonstrate." β
Hearing that she was going to go on stage by herself, Reiko instantly became nervous again. She rubbed her hands together in confusion, then looked in the direction of Zero. She wanted to ask Zero for help, but she saw Zero make a "please come to the stage" gesture to her, which made her even more unsure of what to do.
In the end, at the urging of the host, Reiko left the guest seat and walked to the table.
Standing in front of the table, Reiko calmed down a little, only to see her take a deep breath and pick up a spoon.
Immediately afterward, I saw the spoon gradually bending in Reiko's hand.
There was another exclamation at the scene.
Mizutani sighed, "I see, it seems that the so-called superpower is really just a scam!" β
"No, it's not a scam!" Lu saw that his superpowers were actually denied, and he was also in a hurry, and his face turned red.
His superpowers are obviously real, why doesn't anyone believe them? And why did you little girl come up and stir up trouble!
At this point, Harada spoke, "Mr. Sagimi, it's not right to lie, it's a truth that elementary school students know." β
"IβI'm really not lying!"
"Boooβ" Boos rang out from the audience.
What kind of superpower, it's a liar at all. And for the liars, the audience naturally does not hesitate to boo.
At this time, Akuya's voice came to Zero's head again: "That Mr. Sagimi is so pitiful, Zero, you can help her." β
Zero ignored Akua's words.
Help? How can it help? Now that everyone thinks that Sagimi Jiro is a liar, how can he change the impression of others, and then he will become the target of public criticism. If you don't help him, he is the only one who is pitiful, and if you help him, then the number of poor people will increase to two.
Anyway, Mr. Sagimi, you are really, what is there to show off with such a trivial superpower, and you still want to be on TV? No, it adds a humiliation.
Hearing the boos from the audience, Sagimi Jiro became more and more annoyed, pointed at Reiko and yelled, "Why are you slandering me!" Why! β
Reiko was also startled when she saw Sagimi Jiro looking like she was about to break out and hurt people, and said with a wince: "No, no, that ......"
Seeing this, Harada said disdainfully: "What, Mr. Sagimi, is you angry?" Could it be that you still want to be rude to a little girl on live TV? β
Seeing that the bruises on her forehead were rising, Egret yelled at Harada again, "My superpowers are real!" You are not allowed to slander as you please! If you dare to slander me again, I will kill you with my superpowers! β
"Hahahahahaha-" Harada seemed to hear some of the funniest jokes, "if you really have that ability, I'd like to learn about it!" Come on, let's see if you can kill me with your superpowers! β
Hearing this, Mizutani on the side said to Harada, "Mr. Harada, this is not appropriate. β
"It's just dealing with a liar, nothing inappropriate." Harada said as he gathered all the spoons on the table together and placed them near the edge of the table, and then sat down directly on the round table, "Come, Sagimi-sama, you can kill me with your superpowers!" β
"You forced me!" Sagimi yelled, then walked up to about three and a half meters behind Harada and made a choking motion at Harada.
Harada sat down at the table at first, but after seven or eight seconds, the scene suddenly became wrong.
I saw Harada holding his throat with both hands, and his face had an extremely painful expression, as if he was really being choked by someone.
Reiko Sakuma, who had already sat back in the guest seat, was a little confused: "This, what the hell is going on!" β
Yoko Okino was slightly panicked and said to Zero, "Miss Zero, do you want to stop them?" β
Zero was also a little drumming in her heart, and just as she was about to get up to stop it, Harada let out a hoarse scream and fell from the round table to the ground, lying on all fours, motionless.
Seeing this, Asako Mizutani and three other staff members hurriedly ran to Harada's side and desperately shouted Mr. Harada's name.
Suddenly, Harada, who was lying on the ground, had another twitch of his hands and feet, and then he was silent.
Reiko Sakuma looked at her palpitations and said to Zero, "That, Miss Kanedaichi...... He's not really dead, is he? β
Yoko's face is very bad, this is the first murder case he has encountered? I just encountered a murder in a 3K hotel in Osaka a few days ago, should I be so unlucky?
Zero's expression is also very ugly, isn't this scientific, Conan's kid is obviously not there, and he can also encounter a murder? Why did it happen right under your nose?
Could it be that he also has the attribute of the god of death?
No, no, no, how is this possible! It must have been just a coincidence, yes, an unfortunate coincidence!
Seeing that Harada seemed to have really been killed by Sagimi, there were bursts of frightened shouts from the audience. And the "killer" Sagimi looked a little crazy: "If you don't believe in my superpowers, pay the price!" β
Zero walked to the corpse in three steps and two steps, squatted down and looked at it, Takayuki Harada was indeed dead.
But this is not some superpower killing, but murder carried out by other means.
Harada just sat on the round table with a painful look, that was just his acting skills, he should have wanted to stage a scene where he was stunned by Sagimi's superpowers, and then was rescued by the staff. After all, this is a variety show that lasts for more than an hour, if it is determined that Lumi's superpowers are false not long after the opening, then how will you get so much time in the future? Therefore, the show can only continue to develop by creating suspense and allowing the audience and guests to continue to discuss Sagimi's superpowers.
The fact that the live broadcast was not interrupted is proof that if there is a killing, how can the live broadcast continue. It must be that the director hasn't figured out the situation on the scene yet, thinking that Harada is just playing dead according to the script.
"You four, don't make the slightest move!" Zero shouted to the four staff members.
Asako Mizutani and three other staff members rushed to Harada's side when Harada fell to the ground and pretended to be dead, and it must have been someone who did something to make Harada's fake death a real death.
Harada, who had fallen to the ground and did not move, suddenly convulsed for a while, which should be a clear proof that one of the four people did something.
"Miss Sakuma, please call the police quickly!"
Reiko Sakuma let out an "oh" and immediately took out her mobile phone and dialed the police.
The "murder weapon" should still be hidden by the murderer, but there is nothing you can do by yourself to search your body, you can only let the police do it.
At this time, the director finally realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked his subordinates to cut off the live broadcast signal.
A female staff member took a step to the side, and Zero immediately said to her, "I just said, no one is allowed to move!" β
When the female staff member heard this, she had to stop, and at the same time, her face looked a little uneasy.
Another male staff member was a little unconvinced: "Why can't we do anything?" β
"Do you need to ask? It wasn't Mr. Sagimi who killed Mr. Harada, but one of the four of you. Before the police arrive, you should be wronged. Or do you think it's better to be treated as a suspect by the police later? β
"What did you say?" Shirumi Jiro was very angry when he saw that Zero still doubted his superpowers, and walked up to Zero and said, "You still don't believe me, do you want to end up like that Harada?" β
Zero looked at Sagimi, this guy shouldn't know Harada's intention to play dead, that is to say, he was just used as a clown to be teased in this show from beginning to end.
The female staff member opened her mouth and persuaded, "Well, Mr. Sagimi, you better calm down......"
She said as she took a step towards Sagimi.
"I told you, don't move a single step!"
was stared at by Zero's fierce gaze, and the female staff's body stagnated, and after all, she didn't dare to make any more moves.
This woman is very problematic...... The others were upset with her instructions, but she had already done it twice......
