"This strange thief, you don't want someone to be killed by the Shadow Mage when I arrested you, do you?"

The corners of Fujino's mouth were slightly hooked, and his fists were slightly clenched, showing it in front of Kuroba Kaito's eyes.

“…………”

Kuroba Kaito glanced at Fujino's fist as big as a sandbag, swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help but be speechless for a while.

Well, this guy must be blackmailing him, right?

No, it shouldn't be, it's definitely blackmailing him!

Although he also saw that Fujino was a living blackmail.

But he still intends to pay 500,000 yen.

There is no way, although there is a suspicion of becoming a wronged leader, but what the other party said is very reasonable.

Each class has its own rules.

He has his own character as a magician.

I have to say, Fujino, the old six.

Grabbed his psychology fiercely.

The purpose of his visit this time was to comfort and comfort the family of Kazeden Murai.

If he didn't guess wrong, then the woman named Kikue Tanaka should be the daughter or granddaughter of Kazeden Murai.

Of course, the so-called comfort is nothing more than encouragement and the like.

Well, he didn't want to see someone die in this party, and he definitely wasn't forced to do it for the other party...... of violence is subdued.

"I don't have any cash of 500,000 yen right now......

"Don't have cash?"

Fujino frowned.

Well, 500,000 yen is not too much, but if you convert it into cash, you need at least 50 10,000 yen bills.

It is true that the average person would not carry so much cash with them.

After a pause, Fujino continued to ask, "Then did you bring a bank card?" ”

"Bank card?"

Black Feather was stunned, "I have a bank card." ”

"That's good."

Fujino took out a black mobile POS machine: "I support mobile payment here. ”

Black Feather Kaidou: "............"

Good guys, good guys.

Do you always have a mobile POS machine with you?

No, where the hell did you get the mobile POS machine?

Looking at Fujino who didn't know where to go, just like him, took out the mobile POS machine casually, and Kuroba Kaito was speechless for a while.

Speechless, he didn't know where to pull out a bank card, swiped it on Fujino's mobile POS machine, and entered the password.

As a strange thief, of course, his bank card is encrypted, and he is not handled as a high school student detective Kuroba Kaito, so he doesn't think that his card swiping operation will reveal his identity.

Even if the other party traces it through the bank card information, it will only trace an empty number of the Swiss bank in the end.

[System balance: 500,000 yen]

A pleasant chime rang in Fujino's ears.

The smile on Fujino's face gradually became much soothed, and after putting away the mobile POS machine, he patted Kuroba Kaito's shoulder: "Happy cooperation, customer." ”

"Haha......"

This attitude has changed really quickly.

Kuroba Kaito asked Fujino, "So what information do you need from me?" ”

"You joined the group relatively early, I think you should know something about the shadow mage."

Fujino opened his mouth and asked, "Is there any contradiction between the Shadow Mage and the Escape King before I join the group?" ”

"Contradiction?"

Kuroba Kuaito thought for a moment and replied, "If you contradict each other, the two of them did have a big quarrel before because of the incident of the village wind legend, probably just before you entered this chat room, the shadow mage suddenly said something: 'This great magician will die, It's all your fault', I can understand this sentence, the Ikasama boy is Murai Kazeden, we discussed escaping the magic half a year ago, and then, probably because of the anticipation of the people in the chat room, Mr. Murai held the last magic trick soon after. ”

"The last magic?"

"That's right, in that escape magic, Mr. Murai passed away due to an accident......"

Speaking of this, Black Feather Kaito suddenly frowned.

Obviously, as a magician, he also regretted the magician's death.

"If you look at the current situation, it is very likely that the murderer is Mr. Murai's magic enthusiast, and after learning that it was the people in this chat room who asked Mr. Murai to perform magic again and died, he took revenge on everyone in the chat room in order to avenge Mr. Murai."

Based on the evidence currently available, Fujino discarded the involvement of spoilers and gave the results of the current reasoning.

"Knock knock!"

At this time, there was a knock at the door: "Mr. Doi, we have prepared dinner." ”

"I see!"

Kuroba Kaito regained Doi Tucker's voice and responded.

"Alright, let's go eat."

Fujino turned and pushed the door open.

"Are you still in the mood to eat?"

Kuroba Kaito stood up from the bed he was sitting on, "There's still a murderer watching us in the dark, intending to kill us." ”

"Man is iron, rice is steel."

Fujino waved his hand indifferently, "In this kind of situation, we have no way to take the initiative to attack, we can only wait for the shadow mage to be exposed, with you, the changeable thief, and me, the dark detective, the shadow mage will be exposed as long as he makes a slight move." ”

"Also to ......"

Kuroba Kaito recalled that night, Fujino held a wooden knife, jumped two or three meters, and chased the scene of the spider chopping, and couldn't help but nod.

Laughing to death, who doesn't have long eyes dares to do it in front of this guy's eyes.

The time came in the afternoon.

Because it was winter, the days were short and the nights were long, so it was already dark before six o'clock.

The group came to the table, except for Conan.

Since Fujino fed Conan two magical little cold medicines in advance, he has now slept like a dead dog under the effect of the cold medicine.

At the dinner table, everyone in the magic chat room began to discuss their favorite Japanese magician.

"Magician's words, Black Feather Thief."

Fujino casually said a magician he was most familiar with.

"I also prefer the Black Feather Thief."

Abaya said the same.

The Black Feather Thief had already died on the face of it a hundred and eighty years ago.

Although he has been dead for many years, as a representative of a magic era, he still has a large number of magic enthusiasts and fans.

Especially people of Arayoshinori's age.

Kuroba Kaito glanced at Fujino in surprise, but he didn't expect Fujino to be a fan of his father.

After a pause, he chimed in, "I'm the same." ”

"I admire Kinoshita Yoshiro who has a title at the age of twenty."

Toshi Hamano said the same.

"How do you all like dead magicians...... I still prefer Kazuzo Sanada, who is still alive. ”

Naoko Kuroda complained, and then asked Xiaolan and Yuyuanzi, "Do you two have a favorite magician?" ”

"If you want to say that I like magicians......"

Yuan Zi paused, and a girlish flush appeared on her face, "Of course it's Kidd the Strange Thief!" ”

"But, Kidd the Thief, he's a thief......"

"And there's no certainty he's the Neon Man."

"I've fought him twice."

At this time, Fujino suddenly said: "I can be sure, he is a neon man, although the disguise is very good, but my intuition can be sure ......"

After a pause, Fujino continued: "And in terms of magic techniques, Kidd's magic is indeed very powerful, as for whether he is a magician...... I don't think it's just magicians who perform magic on the magic stage. ”

As he spoke, Fujino asked meaningfully towards Kuroba Kaito, "Isn't it, Mr. Doi?" ”

"Haha...... I think it's the same way, the stage of magic is not single. ”

Kuroba Kaito smiled awkwardly.

…………

After lunch, after packing up the tableware, everyone began to discuss the arrangement of the after-show after the evening party.

Originally, it was supposed to be arranged by the organizer of this gathering, the escape king.

But the king of escape was already dead and did not show up.

The telephone line was also inexplicably broken.

So under the leadership of Hamano Toshiya, the people adopted the method of magic.

The garden was blindfolded, and a sign was drawn on a card with his name written on it, indicating who was the acting party host.

After that, Toshi Hamano also came to a wave of prophetic magic.

Naoko Kuroda is the acting host, guessed right.

Kikue Tanaka was in charge of boiling the bath water and guessed correctly.

But when it came time to guess who was in charge of the aftershow, he guessed wrong.

Originally, he gave a guess that it was Doi Tucker Tree, but in fact, it was him.

Once the decision is made, everyone takes charge of their work.

Xiaolan and Sonoko went to see Conan, who was still sleeping with a cold, Riya Hamano went upstairs to prepare for the show, Arakiyoshi planned to go to the cellar to get some red wine, the college student who came to work went to the kitchen to prepare side dishes, and Kikue Tanaka went to the demolition of the house to boil hot water.

"You should have seen something in that magic trick just now, right?"

Fujino slowly walked over to Kuroba Kaito's side and asked.

"Well, very simple magic."

Kuroba Kuaito nodded, "If I'm not mistaken just now, Kikue Tanaka who performed that magic should be the one who performed the magic, and before that guy in Hamano prepared the magic, Kikue Tanaka fixed the person who performed those jobs on those cards." ”

"Don't you think it's strange?"

Fujino asked suddenly.

"Strange?"

"If it's someone who has been fixed in advance, then why does Riya Hamano say that you are the person in charge of the aftershow?"

Black Feather Kaito was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Fujino in surprise: "You mean ......"

"If I'm not wrong, then you should have been the one who was supposed to be going to prepare the show, but for some reason it became him."

After a pause, Fujino continued: "And the only person who can make this kind of change is Kikue Tanaka, who has prepared in advance, but why did she change the person who was originally fixed? Is there any purpose for which this must be done? ”

"Do you mean?!"

Black Feather Kuaito swallowed his saliva: "Kikue Tanaka is a shadow mage?" ”

"I don't know that yet."

Fujino shook his head, then turned his gaze upstairs, "Let's go up and have a look." ”
