………

When Xiaolan was admitted to the hospital because of a sudden accident and because of a cold, Taiyi and Fei Yingli, who were anxious outside today, didn't know that what Xiaolan remembered in her heart at this time was the past.

"Xiaolan, let me ask you, how tall are you?"

After coming to this stage and studying it for a while, Kudo Shinichi has already set his eyes on the mirror on the stage.

"I'm about 160 centimeters tall."

Even if I don't know why Kudo Shinichi asked this question, Xiaolan still didn't answer without the slightest hesitation.

"That's about five feet three inches. So if you estimate that this booklet should be 12 inches high, it is almost a foot. ”

Speaking of this, Kudo Shinichi completely fell into imagination, and after taking out the book, he handed it to Xiaolan who was beside him after only comparing it twice.

"If you think about it that way, it should be just right. So can I trouble you to put this book above your head and then in front of a mirror? ”

"Aha?!!"

Even though it's a person, I'm still a little embarrassed. However, Xiaolan still followed Kudo Shinichi's instructions, obediently stood in front of the camera, and put the book on her head.

"I said I was like this, what do you know?"

Xiaolan, who was standing in front of the mirror, had a completely boring expression, and with the top of her head, she was quite a book. This kind of look, if you say it, don't mention how stupid it is.

"Alas~~ What are you trying to do?"

Unexpectedly, at this time, it was just because of a slight complaint for a few sentences, but it turned out that Kudo Shinichi, who was there opposite, was moving towards himself step by step.

Looking at her face, which was less than a centimeter away, Xiaolan didn't know what she was thinking about at this time, and she felt that she was even a little stammering when she spoke.

"That's the rift!"

"Rift ?!!"

"yes, you see a crack in it, don't you?"

“………………”

Even if he obediently turned around. Look at the big mirror behind you. It is indeed what Xiaolan said, there is a crack in the top frame.

Even though she knew that Kudo Shinichi was completely in the mood of seriously solving the case at this time, Xiaolan still sighed involuntarily, and there was a faint regret in her heart.

"It's weird~~"

Just take a closer look at this large mirror on the ground. Xiaolan also felt a different feeling in her heart, especially when she recalled what had just happened behind the stage.

"I remember they said that this mirror is in this troupe, but it belongs to their protector, and Miss Salon said that if it hurts the mirror. Will it cause uneasiness in everyone's hearts?? ”

After looking for the difference for a long time, Xiaolan finally found a point, when she was obviously in the background, everyone cherished the mirror in their hands very much, how could there be no one to ask about the mirror after there was a crack.

"I don't think much of that."

Kudo Shinichi, I didn't think too much about it at this time. After all, I was just struggling with what kind of trick the murderer used to create such an effect.

"Look at this one here, there are obviously traces of union. Do they really have such a precious it? ”

After pointing out the damage on this mirror, Kudo Shinichi always felt that the statement of the baby mirror they talked about seemed to contain a different meaning, in which it.

"Shinichi, I think we should go back."

The dressing room at the back was secretly running in front of the stage, but I didn't talk to anyone, only the two of them came.

Therefore, after seeing Kudo Shinichi, who was reluctant to give up around this stage, Xiaolan was a little anxious in her heart.

"I think if I don't go back now, my aunt will definitely be angry in a while."

"Hmm?!! It's a feather, how could it be in here. ”

After looking around the stage inch by inch, I almost didn't pry the floor up. Kudo Shinichi finally noticed that something was wrong.

It didn't occur to me that behind this large mirror, there was a passage leading to the bottom, but the top was sealed with an iron fence, and there was a feather on it.

"It's !! blood"

After pulling up the iron fence again, Kudo Shinichi finally found something different, especially after seeing the two blood stains in the passage underneath, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bend.

"That's what happened. It turns out that the murderer used it during the performance, something unique to this stage. That's why it's happening. ”

Shinichi Kudo, who has been completely caught in the world of his own imagination. What I didn't see at all was that Xiao Lan, who was standing next to him, blinked her big eyes and looked at him with a puzzled face, although she didn't understand it, there was a passage behind this kind of stage, what was there to be happy about?

……………………

After finding what he needed to find, Kudo Shinichi had already pulled Xiaolan back to the small place behind the stage, and after gently arranging it, he began to look for his mother again.

“…… Judging by your posture, you four. It was impossible to shoot the deceased from above. ”

For this bald police captain, after thinking about it for a long time, he really couldn't figure out who the murderer was, but if he really couldn't figure it out, it was better to simulate it.

However, after looking at the place where the four actresses were lying on the stage at the time of the crime, the bald officer shook his head a little regretfully, originally he thought that Kudo Shinichi's speculation was correct.

After all, such a wonderful reasoning is not common, but after simulating this scene, I found that there was no one at all, who could shoot him from above the deceased, which suddenly made the scene a little embarrassing.

The bald police captain had to laugh at himself in the end, after all, if he really did what the little ghost said, it was impossible not to do it, so he also blamed himself for being obsessed, how could he believe the words of that minor?

"Then a few of us, can we go down and change clothes first?"

The black girl standing there felt very impatient now, so after seeing the hope of the end, she immediately began to ask.

"Hmm~~~"

In no matter how you think about it, these four actresses in front of you. It was impossible to do it, and after shooting the deceased from above, the bald policeman nodded directly.

"If it is confirmed here that there is indeed no smoke reaction. You can really just leave. ”

As the assistant of the police captain, this has become the assistant in front of him, which is not simple.

So after thinking about it for a while, he directly set the target somewhere else, "If he says so, the murderer is indeed those people outside." Shall we immediately go and search? ”

"I think I can only think like this~~~"

"Huh?! Who just turned off the lights for me! ”

This bald police captain didn't expect that just when he finished speaking, someone would directly turn off all the lights in the hall and it was pitch black in front of him.

"It's me, I turned off the lights just now."

How to say it, in fact, Kudo has Kiko. The expression on his face was quite excited, as if he couldn't wait to come to a big stage in the world to perform.

"I'm known as Japan's No. 1 traditional beauty, and sometimes I'm called the wife of a world-famous reasoner, but in fact I'm a female detective with gray cells in my brain."

After a very shameful middle two line appeared, it directly turned on the cluster lights on the stage, as if the protagonist had just appeared on the stage.

"That's the Baroness of the Night!"

“…………”

The police captain touched the cold sweat on his forehead a little embarrassed, and after looking at his assistant, he found that he also looked like he was being forced. A little confused, he said to Yukiko Kudo on the stage.

"What the hell are you trying to do?"

"That's right~~~"

It took a long time to think about the lines, the stage scene, and the interpretation of the lighting, and Yukiko Kudo was directly immersed in the fantasy in his mind, and the whole person felt like it was about to ignite.

"That's right, I think the clouds have opened, captain, the clouds that covered up the murder on the stage have disappeared."

Looking at this moment at this time, Yukiko Kudo, who had not entered the topic for a long time, Xiaolan next to him, and Shinichi Kudo felt very embarrassed.

"Mom, you still haven't got to the point, if you get carried away and say the wrong thing, it will be a real shame."

Sometimes I really have to worry about it, although I have just told my mother all the arrangements that the murderer wants to do. But if you accidentally say the wrong thing, it will be a big loss.

"You can rest assured, I'll do exactly what you told me, isn't it?"

"It's really !!"

Originally, on this stage, it has been found out how exactly the murderer did it, after this incident. Kudo Shinichi asked Xiaolan to go back directly and go to find Kudo Yukiko.

As a result, after hearing that his son had been able to find out the murderer, Kudo Yukiko immediately quit, and this kind of opportunity to be in the limelight should be given to me.

Therefore, in the face of his mother's, this kind of power suppression, the result is clearly visible. Kudo Yukiko stood on the stage, ready to say all the arrangements of the murderer, as for Kudo Shinichi? Just standing under the stage pitifully watching here.

"Shinichi~~~"

For Xiaolan at this time, as long as the murderer is found, it doesn't matter who found it out. For Kudo Shinichi, standing under his own stage and accompanying her, you are still happy in your heart. Still, there was one thing she felt a little apprehensive.

"Is it really what you deduced? If you're mistaken, you'll end up losing face with your own mother. ”

"You don't have to worry~~~" For this point now, Kudo Shinichi is very secure, and the murderer is that person, and it is absolutely impossible to be wrong.

"Isn't it hard for you to realize that something is really wrong with this thing? The height of the deceased was six feet three inches. That's about 190 centimeters, which is about your height, plus the height of that book. ”

When he said this, Kudo Shinichi recalled that just now Xiaolan was cute and cute, standing in front of a book, in front of the big mirror, and after being slightly stunned, he continued.

"But after all the set-up. I found that booklet, and it was even higher than the top of the big mirror, so much, so it was completely impossible. ”

You know, the big mirror has been checked, and then it was obvious that it was not a mirror that could hide people at all, and there was not the slightest mystery in it.

"You know, there were still those wings on the deceased's back. So the body can't bend at all. So even if a person hides behind a mirror, his head will still stick out. ”

At this time, this Kudo has Kiko. Standing in front of that mirror, he kept pointing and gesturing, the height of the deceased at that time, and the gap between the mirrors.

"That's why the killer took advantage of that thing. The reason why the actor can suddenly appear on the stage is that he uses a certain device to achieve the purpose of coming and going freely. ”

In fact, when it comes to this, everyone can imagine it, because you must know that sometimes magic tricks are performing, suddenly disappearing, and suddenly appearing, in fact, it is completely because there is a kind of moving door on the stage.

"But the movable door at that time was not on the floor behind the mirror."

Speaking of Xiaolan here, she remembers it very clearly. After all, she just went to look for these clues with Kudo Shinichi.

"I remember when I was back, I saw a strange iron lid on the floor next to the mirror."

"Stupid~~~"

For such a clear information, Xiaolan didn't even see it, and Shinichi used that kind of helpless eyes to look at her and directly pick it out.

"There's an iron lid there, because there's a hole underneath, and we just found a feather on the upper wing of the deceased!"

When he said this, Kudo Shinichi's face also calmed down.

"As for the floor under that lid, the blood stains on the road were completely arcing. Coupled with the curtains arranged on the stage, you can see it completely. ”
