"It's simple, because it's a matter of hiding from people. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Ye Zifeng smiled proudly, "Magic deceives the audience's eyeballs through the transformation of light and shadow, if you can kill people in front of the public, this can also be said to be a kind of magic." ”

"Makes sense, then you mean, the killer is a magician?" Xia Lu asked.

"Not really, but look at this." Ye Zifeng had a flattering expression on his face, "They said you were the chief investigator, didn't you even read the information?" ”

"What is this?" Xia Lu took the mobile phone handed over by Ye Zifeng, which showed this document, "Where did you find it?" ”

"Nothing, that's what you looked at on the computer. Sin prophecy, see for yourself. ”

Xia Lu read it carefully.

Dear Corpses,

Light and smoke deceive the viewer's eyes, while wealth and greed obscure the human mind, and it is a great honor for me to use the magic in my hands to purify the soul. Give me a spotlight to clarify that when the unreal and the real overlap, the cruel angel wields the sword in his hand!

"It's pretty creative." Xia Lu praised, "But how to say it, this is at most a crime notice, and there is no basis for judging that the crime location is at the performance site." ”

"No, no, this is the prophecy of the murder at the scene of the magic trick, you take a closer look, if the two commas are counted as a sentence, there are words in each sentence that cannot be understood, and there is a sense of incongruity." Ye Zifeng pointed to his phone.

"Incomprehensible words? Incongruity? Xia Lu was puzzled, and Keiichi Yamamoto also came over.

"When it comes to words that you can't understand, this one makes it obvious." Keiichi Yamamoto pointed to his phone, "'Let the world clarify', I think it should be better to change it to 'let the world see clearly'." ”

Ye Zifeng slightly: "In other words, there is something wrong with 'Cheng'." ”

"Hmm." Xia Lu nodded, "'Clarify' is generally used on yourself, and let whoever clarifies, please go up and have a commanding tone." When the tone of command says clarification, it is usually the other person who clarifies himself. I think it's more appropriate to use the word 'recognize' here. ”

"So...... Ye Zifeng unfolded the wrapping paper of a sandwich on the table, took out a Parker pen from his breast pocket, and wrote on the wrapping paper, "This is the first keyword, but we don't want this word, but we want his first letter." ”

Ye Zifeng drew six vertical lines on the explosive device.

"Opening letters." Xia Lu thought for a while, "It's okay to use 'clarification' for clarification, and the initial letter is 'C'." ”

"There's no problem here, but I hope you'll see this 'c' as the 'c' of 'chéng'." Ye Zifeng took the pen and wrote the English handwriting lowercase letter "c" between the fourth and fifth vertical lines.

"Look for it again, and there's something in between every sentence." Ye Zifeng smiled and pointed at the mobile phone in Xia Lu's hand with a parka pen.

"And?" Xia Lu frowned, carefully looking for the sense of incongruity that Ye Zifeng said in each sentence.

"Oh, here and here." Xia Lu seems to have found a treasure," the 'fuzzy' in the second sentence. The word is an adjective, and this sentence puts it in the position of a predicate. ”

"Perfect!" Ye Zifeng snapped his fingers and wrote the "m" between the second and third vertical lines.

Later, Ye Zifeng added: "Not all hints are incongruous, but these words can only be found after the other letters are found. ”

"If you want to talk about the sense of incongruity, I think this place should be counted as one." Keiichi Yamamoto pointed to the word "dedication" in the fourth sentence, "It always feels a little awkward to put this here first." ”

"'Dedication' is usually meant to be sent respectfully, but since he is here to kill, why should others respectfully put a spotlight on him to illuminate his darkness?" Xia Lu said as she thought.

"Makes sense." Ye Zifeng nodded, and wrote the "x" in the middle of the third and fourth inverted vertical lines, "Now three letters have been found, and there are still four." ”

"The rest is nothing special, I can't read anything incongruous, and the grammar makes sense." Xia Lu tilted her head, still working tirelessly to find it.

"First of all, the first sentence." Ye Zifeng began his own reasoning, "First of all, any sentence must have a subject, that is to say, the word selected from the first sentence is the word 'fog' of smoke, and his opening letter is 'w'. ”

"The second space has been found, it is 'm', if 'm' can be written as 'mo', then the corresponding Chinese character should be 'demon', from which it can be inferred that the third space is filled with 's', 'shu', the magic of magic."

"But in the third sentence, there are a total of five Chinese characters with the beginning of the 's' in Hanyu Pinyin, how can this be explained?" Xia Lu immediately asked.

"I'll talk about this later." Ye Zifeng sold a pass, and said this, "Now the last two empty seats are left, since you know that this is a murderous crime prophecy, it is not difficult to deduce, and the remaining two letters are 's' and 'r'." Spelling it into Chinese characters means 'killing.' ’”

Ye Zifeng paused and looked at the two opposite.

"Now read it again."

"I, magic, magic, present, field, kill, human?!" Xia Lu and Yamamoto Keiichi read Ye Zifeng's inference in unison, and the two of them were surprised.

"This is the prophecy of crime." Ye Zifeng leaned on the backrest and returned the pen to the pocket on his chest, "After that, I have made a lot of speculations about the four 's' left in the third sentence, but there is no more accurate inference. If this is also a part of the crime prophecy, we need to be vigilant, and since the criminal has made a crime prophecy, there must be an 'outside' member who will go to the next magic show. There's nothing we can do to stop him, so we're going to go to the scene and see how the killer kills someone. ”

"Why did he have to go?" Keiichi Yamamoto was a little puzzled, "Wouldn't it be better to hide in the current situation?" ”

"He's not going to hide." Ye Zifeng said in a confident tone, "Because he is an 'outside' member." ”

"Although it is said that watching this kind of magic show that costs 2,000 yuan for a ticket is a high-end enjoyment, but must you dress like this to make it worthwhile?" Xia Lu fiddled with the long black dress on her body and asked a little nervously.

"No problem, no problem." Ye Zifeng waved his hand, and then pointed to the other spectators waiting to enter the venue, "You look at the fact that others are dressed similarly to you, there is no problem, if you dress too casually, it will look a little out of place." ”

Ye Zifeng's face was full of smiles, this expression had been maintained for nearly a noon, and it froze on his face, but the effect was good, and everyone in a suit and leather shoes who passed by Ye Zifeng also smiled and nodded to Ye Zifeng. He straightened the tie tied to the neckline, pinched a camera disguised as a tie clip on the blue and silver stripes, and the miniature microphone was held into Ye Zifeng's mouth.

"When we get to the theater, we have to separate, remember where we are and remember where we are protecting our targets." Ye Zifeng took out two photos and handed them to Xia Lu and Keiichi Yamamoto, "Operizzi. Guderian is a professor and head of the Photon Mass Kinetic Energy Research Group of the Scientific Research Agency of the German Ministry of Defense. He's the one we're protecting, the 'outside' liaison officer of the German branch, he's our lifeblood in Germany, and if this professor is killed, we'll lose all of our intelligence surveillance over Germany. Therefore, this protection task is extremely important. ”

This is the information that the three of them have memorized at noon today, and Ye Zifeng repeats it again at this time to emphasize the importance of the task.

"But we've been out of contact with the German side for a month." Xia Lu was a little worried, "The intelligence agents who infiltrated Germany from France have also been heard from without return, and the 'outside' side has already noticed the abnormal situation in the 'external' organization in Europe, and the appearance of this Professor Guderian at this time is a breakthrough in this situation. ”

"That's right." Kei Yamamoto nodded, "But why don't you let us get in touch with the professor?" Wouldn't it be more convenient to know each other's identities and protect them? ”

"It's better for us not to violate the rules of the Ministry of Defense, after all, on the surface, our identities are all members of organs or civil organizations affiliated with the Ministry of Defense, and once we do something that makes the Ministry of Defense suspicious, we are likely to be exposed." Ye Zifeng said with a solemn expression.

At this time, the bell rang for admission, and the guests waiting for admission in the hall walked towards the theater in groups.

When he walked into the theater, Ye Zifeng had already separated from Xia Lu and Keiichi Yamamoto, and its location was in Area C of the audience, and Area G where Professor Guderian was sitting was directly opposite Ye Zifeng.

"I'm already in place." Ye Zifeng sat down in his place and said softly.

"I'm in a bit of a bad position." Keiichi Yamamoto said, "I'm in Area H, and I don't see Professor Guderian here. ”

"I can see it." Xia Lu spoke at this time, "I'm in Area B, and I've already found Professor Guderian's figure. ”

"Then it will become the mode of me and Xia Lu commanding, and Mr. Yamamoto acting." Ye Zifeng said, "There are still twenty minutes before the performance starts, pay attention to your surroundings and carefully see if there is anything abnormal." ”

"I'm in good shape." Keiichi Yamamoto immediately replied, "No suspicious person was found, and all the audience was waiting for the show to begin." ”

"Me too, but there's an audience member with a telescope scanning the circular stage." Xia Lu looked at the back of an audience member in the fifth row and reported to Ye Zifeng.

"Be vigilant and watch out for unexpected situations." Ye Zifeng looked at the audience next to him, but in the same situation as Keiichi Yamamoto and Professor Guderian, the two adjacent districts couldn't clearly see the person he wanted to see, "Are the guns ready?" ”

"Ready, ready to move at any time." Keiichi Yamamoto patted the holster under his armpit.

"There's no problem on my side either." Xia Lu tied the holster to her leg under her skirt. Ye Zifeng looked around at the situation, his hand was on his waist, and the gun was still in the holster.

"If there is no problem, always be vigilant, and it would be nice if there were no accidents."

Ye Zifeng finally made up his mind, and suddenly, this theater darkened.

"Oops." Ye Zifeng was shocked by this sudden change, "There is an error, do you have infrared imaging equipment?" ”

"Nope." Keiichi Yamamoto replied.

"My glasses can be linked to a miniature camera with infrared imaging." Xia Lu said as she brought the glasses in the handbag in front of her eyes, and pressed the switch on the glasses with her fingers, and immediately the cyan buoy appeared in the field of vision of the glasses, Xia Lu quickly adjusted, and the image in the glasses refreshed, and the image as clear as day appeared in front of Xia Lu's eyes.

"No problem, clear vision."

"I'll leave it to you." Ye Zifeng nodded, "Always observe Professor Guderian's every move, as well as the situation of the audience around him. ”

"No problem, just leave it to me." Xia Lu nodded, adjusted the focus of her glasses, and Xia Lu zoomed in on Professor Guderian's surroundings.

A spotlight fell from the center of the circular stage, and I don't know when, a black tuxedo appeared in the center of the stage, and under the spotlight, the lowered cat's eyes turned the face pitch black.

"It always feels familiar." Ye Zifeng didn't know why, the magician on the stage made Ye Zifeng feel familiar, as if he was familiar.

"Welcome to the illusion of light and smoke and the gentlemen and ladies present ......" There was a bang, and a burst of smoke exploded, and when the smoke dissipated, the figure of the magician in the spotlight had disappeared. This is, the magician's voice rang out from behind Section C, "Please keep your eyes open and see clearly, this epic miracle!" ”

The spotlight chased after him, illuminating the magician at the back of Section C. The theater burst into loud applause, and the magician calmly bowed and walked down the passage toward the central circular stage. When passing by Ye Zifeng, the magician stopped and patted Ye Zifeng's shoulder to catch the traces.

Ye Zifeng didn't understand the meaning of the magician's action, so he didn't act rashly. When the magician walked back to the center of the stage, with a wave of his hand, another flash of smoke flashed, and a cane with a pink gem on one end appeared in the magician's hand.

"Magic, as the name suggests, magic technology, the suddenness achieved by using various techniques and high-tech means, so that the audience cannot understand is the true meaning of magic." The magician walked around the circular stage, "The real purpose of magic is to dazzle the audience, but today I'm going to do something different." ”

The magician flipped over and over in his hand, and a slight sense of incongruity invaded Ye Zifeng, as if the scene in front of him had appeared as if there was an afterimage.

"It's like this." The magician's cane moved a little forward, and a circle of faint pink ripples appeared in the air, and it seemed that there was no trace of three-dimensional projection, and everything felt natural and harmonious. Ye Zifeng realized that something was wrong.

"Xia Lu." Ye Zifeng said softly.

"What's the matter?"

"Is there anything unusual about Professor Guderian?" Ye Zifeng asked eagerly.

"No, everything is normal, Professor Guderian is enjoying a magic show." Xia Lu replied, there was nothing out of the ordinary, but what was the matter with the realistic pink ripples?

On the circular stage, the magician's assistant walked up.

"What I'm best at is illusion, which makes people see unexpected phenomena."

There was a loud bang, a puff of smoke drifted by, and the assistant on the stage disappeared in favor of Professor Guderian, who was supposed to be sitting in the audience to watch the show.

"Not good." Ye Zifeng got up from his seat and ran towards the ring passage behind the audience, but it was definitely too late to run towards Area G now.

"Mr. Yamamoto, hurry up. Xia Lu, confirm the location of Professor Guderian. ”

"I can't confirm it, Guderian disappeared from my view." Xia Lu looked a little flustered, "Ah, there is, from the back of the audience." ”

Ye Zifeng looked at the stage, and Professor Guderian was performing suspended in the air with the magician.

"Damn, Professor Guderian was dropped." Ye Zifeng shouted in a low voice, and at the same time quickened his pace and ran towards Area G. This amphitheater is not small, it takes nearly 200 meters to run from Area C where Ye Zifeng said to Area G where Guderian is located, and by the time Ye Zifeng arrives, Keiichi Yamamoto is already waiting for Ye Zifeng behind Area G.

"How's it going?" Ye Zifeng had just arrived, and without waiting for a breath, he immediately asked.

"There was no movement. But which one do you say is the real Professor Guderian? Keiichi Yamamoto asked suspiciously.

"Neither is true, the fake Professor Guderian on the stage will not return to his seat, but will leave the stage directly, taking advantage of the smoke falling from the movable door above the stage to the next level of the stage, and the spotlight will shine here, the fake Professor Guderian will get up and salute." Ye Zifeng said with a frown.

"This, how is this possible." Keiichi Yamamoto looked a little surprised, "So where is the real Professor Guderian?" Why didn't Chief Camila detect it? ”

"Maybe it's sound and light." Ye Zifeng speculated, "The venue is full of infrasound waves, which will interfere with the normal thinking of the human brain, and sometimes even hallucinations, and the dim light and spotlights make the audience's eyes focus on the stage, which may have taken advantage of the gap between Professor Guderian's departure to kidnap Professor Guderian." ”

"But why did Professor Guderian leave?" Keiichi Yamamoto asked.

"I don't know, but now is not the time to talk about this." Ye Zifeng's expression was serious, and then he said to this Xia Lu, "Can you hear me, Xia Lu, we are leaving, Professor Guderian is in danger now." ”

"I know, I'll be right away." Xia Lu's voice came.

The magician glanced at the three people who had left at the back of the auditorium and smiled imperceptibly.
