Although Chen Zhong was a little tired of the war between good and evil in this world, he still decided to investigate it after such a bizarre time happened around him.

With the help of Meg's puzzle, Chen Zhong obtained the two magicians' things in the hands of the police, the most special of which were two tarot cards, and the autopsy report of the deceased proved that the newspaper said that the cause of their death was indeed strange.

According to the address Jay told him, Chen Chong came to the hotel room where he was staying and wanted to talk to Jay.

After the two sat down, Chen Zhong took out two newspapers and put them on the table, "Jay, have you seen the report on this?" ”

Jay picked up the newspaper in a bit of a daze, and when he finished reading the bizarre deaths of Magician Vance and Jon, Jay leaned back in his chair in a somewhat depressed mood.

Chen Zhong didn't bother Jay, waited quietly, and after a while, Jay sat up straight and said, "Do you suspect that I did it?" ”

"Vance has offended you, Jon has told people that you are a crappy magician, and their deaths coincide with the time you performed the magic, do you believe that there are so many coincidences in the world?"

Jay nodded slightly, "You're right, when everything comes together, I'm indeed the most suspicious person, but I can swear that their deaths weren't done by me." ”

"Do you recognize this?" Chen Zhong took out two strange tarot cards from his pocket.

Jay took it and looked at it carefully, shaking his head slightly, "I'm sorry, I've never seen anything like this, my magic usually uses cards." ”

Chen Zhong took back the tarot cards and continued to ask: "These two magicians have more or less offended you, do you think that among your relatives and friends, will anyone do such a thing?" ”

"I'm not married, so I don't have a family, just two old friends, Charlie and Vernon. Vernon was a prop maker, and Charlie used to be a magician, but like me, our time is long over. ”

Chen Chong talked to Jay for a while, but still couldn't find any clues, when Charlie came to Jay's room and reminded him that he would continue to perform 'Execution Escape' at night, and he needed to go to the theater early to prepare.

Seeing that the two were busy performing, Chen Zhong said goodbye and left Jay's room.

That night, Jay's performance, Chen Chong did not go to the theater to watch, but stayed in the hotel to use the computer to look up information, there are too many legends and information about tarot cards, Chen Chong has not found a similar introduction to the tarot cards on the two deceased.

Anne and Meg went out to play, and everyone made an appointment to go to dinner at eight o'clock, and Chen Chong used the computer to look up no clues for a while, so he lay on the sofa and watched TV.

When Jay in the theater began to perform the magic trick, the curtain rope in Chen Chong's room slipped down on its own, it seemed to turn into a snake, and slowly crawled towards the sofa, the sound of the TV covering the sound of the rope rubbing against the carpet, and Chen Chong, who knew nothing, was still watching TV.

Suddenly, the rope wrapped around Chen Chong's neck, and began to tighten, Chen Chong, who was raided, hurriedly grabbed the rope that strangled him with both hands, but the force on it became stronger and stronger, Chen Chong felt that it was difficult to breathe, and hurriedly used the teleportation on the jewelry, and came to the other side of the room, but this rope actually teleported with him, and it was still wrapped around his neck tighter and tighter.

Chen Chong saw that the teleportation did not work, and hurriedly used all his telekinesis to resist the strange power on the rope, although the telekinesis temporarily alleviated the predicament, but Chen Chong's telekinesis is not unlimited, when they are all consumed, it is a dead end, and now I can only hope that the two girls who went out to play can come back as soon as possible.

I don't know how long it took, when Chen Zhong felt that his physical strength and mental power transformation were about to be exhausted, and finally the voices of Anne and Meg laughing came from the corridor.

"Anne, Meg, come and save me!" Calculating the distance that had reached telepathy, Chen Zhong hurriedly called for help.

Bang, after the door of the room opened, the two girls ran to Chen Chong's side with a disgraced face, Anne gathered lightning and struck the end of the rope, Meg cast a demonic spell, but to no avail, the rope still firmly strangled Chen Chong's neck.

Chen Chong suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said in the spiritual connection: "Quickly flip over my body and see if there are any strange tarot cards." ”

Anne and Meg hurriedly tore at Chen's clothes and pants, and sure enough, Meg took out a tarot card from Chen's trouser pocket, which was exactly the same as the one found on the two dead magicians.

After the tarot cards were removed, the rope returned to its original state, Anne quickly electrocuted the rope to ashes, and the two women helped Chen Zhong to the sofa.

Anne brought ice cubes from the refrigerator and put them on Chen's neck, which was worn by rope, and Meg brought water and carefully fed it to Chen.

Chen Zhong looked at the tarot card in his hand and began to recall all the people who had come into contact with him today, Anne and Meg must have ruled out, in addition to them, the only ones who had the opportunity to put the card in their pockets were Jay and his assistant Charlie, it seems that the murderer is one of these two.

Now that the murderer has been identified, Chen Chong decided to go to them now, but after the accident just now, Chen Chong did not dare to be careless, after all, the murderer's magic still poses a fatal threat to himself, so he asked Anne and Meg to hide in the Bible, and if there is a fight, they can come out to help at any time.

Chen Zhong called the hotel where Jay was staying, and the hotel staff who answered the phone told him that Magician Jay had attended the show at night and had not yet returned.

Since Jay is not in the hotel, he should still be in the theater now, Chen Zhong hurriedly rushed to the theater where tonight's performance will be performed.

The show is long over, and only the lights are still on the stage in the empty theater, where Jay and his assistants Charlie and Vernon are working on the details of the next magic trick.

"Hi, good evening, gentlemen." Chen Zhong jumped onto the stage from the shadows and greeted the three of them.

Seeing Chen Chong appear, Jay showed surprise, Vernon smiled, only Charlie showed a surprised look, Chen Chong, who had been paying attention to their expressions, had locked the murderer on Charlie's body.

Chen Zhong took out the three tarot cards and was still in front of the three of them, "Jay, tonight when you were performing a magic trick, I was attacked, and I almost went with the dead Jon, so I came here to ask the murderer why he did it to me." ”

"Someone is going to kill you? Are you saying the murderer is between us? Jay asked.

Chen Zhong looked at them and said, "That's right, this card was stuffed into my pocket by someone else, if it's not you, it's Charlie, but I believe it wasn't made by you." So I want to ask, Mr. Charlie, why are you doing this? ”
