Naruto: The Super Powerful - Passionate as Water

Chapter 62 Magic Show, Murder

The huge tent was filled with tourists from all over the world and magicians showing off their talents. White ghost-like things were flying in the air.

"Chuan, this is it." Victorique glanced curiously at the air ball flying in the air.

"It should be a balloon coated with oil and phosphorus," Ji Tengchuan said uncertainly.

"Young man, how do you feel here?" Hunter came to Chuan's side and said casually.

"It's pretty lively and interesting, Hunter, don't you think so?" Ji Tengchuan noticed the disapproval in Hunter's eyes and asked strangely.

"Of course, what is being performed here is all deception and deceiving people's eyes. They also worship it as an ancient power," Hunter said disdainfully, his eyes full of contempt.

Ji Tengchuan was stunned for a moment and immediately understood that today's magic does not simply exist as a special skill, but has an ancient mysterious veil attached to it.

For example, many ordinary people present took magic seriously and thought it was an ancient power.

"Are you okay with putting your work aside, clockmaker?" Victorique glanced at Hunter, as if she didn't welcome him.

"It's nothing, anyway, the return train hasn't come yet. And staying with you seems to be an eye-opener," Hunter shrugged and said relaxedly.

Victoria shook her head secretly, as if she knew something.

On the stage, the magic performance had reached its climax. A male magician lifted his partner's feet up, using only a rod to make his body almost suspended.

"The equipment that supports the body is hidden inside the curtain." Victoria guessed after seeing the performance on stage.

"Yes, it's a clockwork device with pulleys," Hunter said professionally.

"So that's it." Ji Tengchuan nodded and figured out the reason.

At this moment, an audience member was invited to the stage, took a gun, and shot a dancing girl. The girl shook wildly as if she had been shot, then opened her mouth and held a ball in her teeth. A golden bullet.

The audience instantly aroused cheers and thunderous applause.

"The bullets in the gun are..." Before Hunter could show off, Victorique interrupted: "It's fake. It's a bullet mixed with tin and water. It will break as soon as it is fired. They are Let guests use such a gun.”

"I see, the real bullet has been hidden in his mouth for a long time." Ji Tengchuan nodded with approval.

At this moment, a priest with a cross appeared on the stage and said loudly: "Next, please pay attention."

It is worth noting that there are two old women in their eighties beside the godfather. Their faces are wrinkled and they are wearing lipstick. They look like ghosts. They hold up their skirts and introduce: "I am my sister Camilla."

The old woman with her head coiled then introduced: "I am my sister, Morela."

The godfather continued: "They are the last survivors of the very famous magical bloodline in the village. It can be said to be the oldest power."

As he said that, the curtain behind him opened, revealing a cabinet. He pointed at the cabinet and said, "Name it, Sister Sophie's box."

"Please open your eyes wide"

“Appreciate carefully”

The weird smiles of the two sisters are scary no matter how you look at them

Ji Tengchuan looked at the two sisters who were tied to chairs and sat facing each other, and wondered: "What are they performing? Isn't it an escape room or something?"

The priest closed the door of the box, then beat the gongs and drums, and then opened the door again

Everyone in the audience exclaimed.

"The seats have been exchanged." Ji Tengchuan showed a little surprise on his face. He didn't expect that magic in this era has reached such a peak.

"This is the miracle. This land was once full of magic in the ancient power of European blood. We have become accustomed to it, but now the running trains and airships soar in the sky, and the voices of distant people are heard through the radio waves. Although these are developments worthy of cheering, on the other hand, have we forgotten the important strength?”

The priest gave an impassioned speech, and then the hand holding the notepad suddenly pointed at Hunter in the audience and shouted: "Yes, for example, you standing there, what is our most important strength?"

"It's science," Hunter said calmly, and then walked to the stage.

"Oh, even if a miracle happens before your eyes, you still have this idea." The priest's tone was full of provocation.

"This is just a trick. How can this be considered a miracle?" Hunter stretched out his hand and reprimanded with the smell of gunpowder.

"Since what you think, please come into this box. In this way, you will understand the mysterious power that science cannot explain. The youth of the new era, the ancient power will judge you." The two sisters said in unison.

"Interesting, then let me prove it. Prove that this is all a trick," Hunter said with enthusiasm. He couldn't wait to expose the lies inside.

Inside the cabinet, the two men's hands were tied together. The priest placed a short scimitar on their hands and said, "Put the knife here. This will prove that the rope has not been touched."

"Well, that's it." Hunter nodded. There should be no problem. He wanted to see how this old witch changed places with him.

offstage

Victorique pulled Ji Tengchuan's hand with a solemn expression and whispered: "Chuan, stop them, otherwise"

"Let the formidable magic show its miracle again," the priest shouted, and then closed the cabinet door with a sinister smile on his lips that showed success.

At this moment, thunder and lightning roared, and then a scream suddenly came from the cabinet

The old woman named Carmilla opened the cabinet door and saw her sister covered in blood and exclaimed: "Morella"

Then the two people covered in blood fell down in the cabinet. Hunter had a machete stuck on his chest and was already dead, but strangely, their hands were still tied together.

"He died because of the short knife just now."

"But their hands are still tied together."

"Who is it?"

People in the audience talked a lot, feeling surprised and unbelievable.

Ji Tengchuan squinted his eyes and glanced at Carmilla on the stage. Mad, pretending, there is no doubt that the murderer was this old woman, but the key is, how did she do it?
