The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

Hamano Toshiya certainly didn't want to agree to Karasawa's proposal.

He quickly exchanged glances with Tanaka Takakue. It was obvious that both of them felt bad about this sudden change. However, although Karasawa was completely joking, the reason was too good.

At parties, even familiar classmates, colleagues, or even close family members will have various cases break out due to some old grudges. They are just a group of friends who met on the Internet. There is nothing between them. Contradictory, that would be too much trust in human nature.

Didn’t you see that they even agreed to sign up for the gathering of the version of Petting Shadow Mage?

The assigned tasks are just trivial matters, but if any of them is allowed to operate them, if the chosen person is not so harmonious, it will indeed easily lead to misunderstandings...

Hamano Lee also fell into an awkward silence where he wanted to refute but had no reason. Others came around and agreed with Karasawa's statement, and the matter was finalized.

"Well, okay, I'll write everyone's names." Karasawa took out a pen from his commuter bag, took off the pen cap, and pointedly looked at Hamano Toshiya who proposed to play with flowers, "How many of us are there? They are not your members, so we shouldn’t have any role in acting as chairman, right? Then I’ll just write down your online names. In terms of tasks, besides the acting chairman who is responsible for coordinating matters, what else is there?

Listening to his question, Hamano Toshiya instinctively stated his original plan: "...Choose an acting chairman, then add a banquet director to the evening activities, and finally, set up a punishment option and choose a person to take charge. Burn the boiler and prepare the bath water tonight."

"Hey, I didn't hear about this beforehand!" Naoko Kuroda raised her eyebrows, "Why is there a punishment option? Besides, I thought the assigned tasks would be more specific..."

"In fact, adding punishment options is nothing, but what does the banquet minister do?" Huang Yi touched his chin.

"After all, isn't the chairman here? The biggest attraction in our program is suddenly gone. Someone has to be responsible for preparing a beautiful finale program tonight to make the atmosphere better, right?" Hamano Toshiya, who had been prepared for a long time, was not afraid. , "Just think of the punishment as part of the game. Since it's all about luck, there should be lucky ones as well as unlucky ones, right?"

"In that case, there are too few punishment items." Tang Ze raised his eyebrows, picked up the brush and wrote several lines of words. Before the people next to him came over to look, he deftly tore and folded the paper. , stacked into neat little squares.

"Hey, little brother, you can't take the opportunity to tease us." Tanaka Takahisa felt something was wrong, his eyebrows twitched, and he barely controlled his expression, "Proper teasing can be used as a bonus. If it goes too far, we will also I won’t let anyone push me around.”

"Don't worry, it won't go beyond the scope of work of this Mr. Sukama." Karasawa shrugged with a smile, "Now, I will give these slips of paper with the tasks written on them to Mr. Lan, and these slips of paper with the names are Give it to Yuanzi-san. There are five tasks in total. Draw five names and put them together with the tasks one by one..."

While he was speaking, Suzuki Sonoko had already pulled one out of the note.

There are only 6 people actually present in the forum today. If there are five tasks, then only one person who has a bye needs to be eliminated, and the next people will receive their respective tasks.

After she finished drawing, she simply opened the note in her hand, unfolded it, and immediately laughed: "'The Disciple of the Magic Messenger', it seems that I... cough, Mr. Amuro, you can enjoy the show tonight. !”

She showed the words on the note to the others and made a scissor hand gesture happily.

At present, others don't know that she is actually the disciple of the magic user, but this does not prevent her from being in a good mood. After all, this kind of good luck usually does not come to her.

"You're lucky..." Karasawa glanced at Toru Amuro, who was holding his chin with a thoughtful expression, and took a look at Conan, who was intact and showed no signs of illness.

In the original plot development, the reason why the real murderer was able to complete the plan so smoothly was that, in addition to the tricks he had done in advance, there was another important condition, that is, the keen detective kid braved the heavy snow and came to rescue his sweetheart. He had a high fever. When the murderer carried out his plan, he had no chance to notice it. Moreover, Kuroba Kaito, who had a vague premonition of the murderer's purpose, lacked the nerve to commit murder, so everything happened by mistake.

Now, after his troubles, the course of the story is destined to undergo earth-shaking changes. Whether the person who gets the bye is lucky or unlucky depends on the fate of the next one.

He set his sights on Mao Lilan.

Mao Lilan looked at the left and right sides, tentatively grabbed one on each side, and opened it at the same time.

"Oh, the 'taciturn ventriloquist', the task is, 'wash tonight's dishes'."

"Uh, let me wash the dishes..." Huang Yi was stunned, a little dumbfounded, but soon he breathed a sigh of relief, "There is actually a semi-automatic dishwasher in the villa."

"A mission is a mission. You won't deliberately make things difficult for others just because you need to increase punishment." Tang Ze laughed, "It won't exceed the scope of Mr. Sukama Kiyoshiro's work, right?"

Mao Lilan saw that the selected person accepted the task he selected and did not show any dissatisfaction. He breathed a sigh of relief and quickly selected the next option: "'Phantom', the task is, 'Be everyone's performance assistant at the banquet' '.

"Huh? Wait a minute..." Naoko Kuroda adjusted her glasses, "I'm not sure everyone needs assistants for their performances. And if that's the case, what will happen to my performance..."

The magician's assistant, as the role that needs to cooperate with the magician's performance and is closest to the magician, must have an understanding of the magic performance process and real techniques.

Playing the role of everyone's assistant, she needs to memorize the performance information given by everyone. Although she is really busy, it also means that she has the opportunity to learn the truth about everyone's magic techniques. It is actually a good idea for magic lovers. Position.

It's a bit bad, but it's also a bit good. It can be regarded as a thing that has disadvantages and advantages, and is impartial, so she complained a few words, but her tone was not very resistive.

"If you need an assistant for your performance, then why don't you choose one of us to help you? Don't worry, we will keep it secret." Karasawa responded to her protest with ease, and at the same time his eyes drifted towards Tanaka Takahisukee.

Tanaka Takahisa didn't notice his gaze, and Karasawa guessed that she should be sweating now.

For the chosen person, this task can only be regarded as part of the game, but for the murderer, it means that there is a character who may have to maintain contact and contact with everyone, and wander back and forth throughout the building. , if you want to arrange complex mechanisms without leaving any traces, and then retract them without attracting attention, the difficulty will increase exponentially.

Mao Lilan, who was unaware, continued to reach out to the next piece of paper: "'Banquet Minister', um, 'red herring'. Does this mean to prepare for the finale as mentioned before?"

Since there was no detailed explanation this time, she raised her head and looked at Tang Ze who had arranged the task.

"Yes, this position is undoubtedly the big star tonight, so this must be a reward, right?" Karasawa looked towards Kuroba Kaito.

Kuroba Kaito glanced at the playful Karasawa and said slowly: "That's no problem. I've had some practice in performing. But, this classmate, your name is Karasawa, right?" I hope you will be my assistant. Ms. Kuroda is a woman, and I am afraid that my performance project will cause unnecessary misunderstandings."

According to his understanding of Tang Ze, this guy basically acts with a strong purpose. He suddenly intervenes in the game and even arranges tasks without authorization. In just a few words, he seems to be controlling the whole scene. , doing this means that this game has a major impact on his plan, or the events that may occur here.

Do you want him to believe that Tang Ze didn't do anything? How is it possible.

If he didn't retaliate a little, he wouldn't be Kaitou Kidd.

"No problem, no problem." Tang Ze agreed without any hesitation.

Revenge was revenge, and he didn't believe that Kuroba Kaito could make any embarrassing demands for him. As we all know, as long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed. As for the level of resistance to embarrassment, Onion people have nothing to fear.

Hamano Toshiya shrugged.

This was actually not much different from the list he had prepared in advance. If it was carried out according to the original plan, even if there was no internal response, it would be a successful performance. It was a pity that I could not take this opportunity to show off my "mind-reading skills".

Tanaka Takahisa's eyebrows were almost tied into knots.

"Well, next is 'The Disappearing Pani'." Mao Lilan took out the next piece of paper and looked at the task note, hesitated for a moment, and peeked at Hamano Toshiya.

"What's wrong? Is my task very difficult?" Hamano Tori didn't care and made a wink that he thought was cool. "Little sister, I dare to say that no matter how difficult the task is, it is destiny. I don't think so." I'll blame you."

He thought that the other party's expression was because the little sister had a good impression of him, so he was only worried when announcing his mission, and was still secretly smug. Mao Lilan had already hummed and read the contents of the note. come out.

"Write 2k words of review for each performance tonight."

"...Huh?" Hamano Toshiya's expression suddenly froze, "Didn't you say that it's not beyond the scope of the helper's work?"

While his face was full of shock, the people next to him who knew his usual speaking style couldn't help but start laughing.

The disappeared Pani, also known as Hamano Toshiya, is a famous troll in this group. He has a very bad mouth. In addition, he is more or less an industry insider. He is called a jerk when he comments harshly on other people's magic. Brother understand, it is no exaggeration to say that I am a keyboard warrior.

Asking him to write a short essay to praise others, or to a bunch of amateurs, with an essay of 2,000 words, is almost like killing him.

Karasawa spread his hands innocently: "It is indeed not a helper's job, but this is the chairman's job in the first place? When chatting before dinner, Mr. Aragoshi Norori mentioned that after this party, you will also announce this event on SNS. His records and thoughts, this was originally something that the absent chairman should be responsible for, but now that the other party has not come, he is having a headache about how to solve this part. Why, didn’t you say that he needs to choose an acting chairman?”

"I..." Hamano Toshiya looked at Karasawa's innocent expression, and then at the thin piece of paper held on Mao Lilan's slender fingers. He could only hold back his anger in his heart.

This mission was so specific and so precise that it felt like it was targeting him.

But neither Tang Ze nor Mao Lilan are members of the group, and they don't actually know his status on the Internet. Not to mention that the people who wrote the tasks and the people who drew the lots were really random choices, and there was no way to find a target. His traces.

"...I'll write it." Under the gaze of so many eyes, Hamano Toshiya could only grit his teeth and agreed, "I'll write it when I get back, is that okay?"

"Are you trying to escape, right? I mean, Pani, this is a bit lacking in your momentum." Naoko Kuroda raised her chin with a joking tone, obviously just watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.

It’s not her who writes it anyway. Hamano Toshiya, who looks like a mean girl in her speech, wants to write soft articles for everyone. She almost applauds the two children who wrote the tasks and drew the lots.

Maybe this is the heavenly punishment for what you owe, and you deserve it.

"I, of course I will finish writing..." Hamano Toshiya gritted his teeth and tried to hold his chest up and raised his head, "I'm willing to admit defeat, of course I admit it."

Naoko Kuroda, who had never won a verbal battle online, turned her head proudly and looked at Tanaka Takahise: "That's the last one left. Burn the boiler and prepare bath water, right?"

"No problem." Tanaka Takahisa's held breath relaxed a little, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, "Pani even said that he was willing to admit defeat..."

Over there, Mao Lilan, who had only two notes left in her hand, had opened them out of consideration for the end, and then muttered in confusion: "'Get the bath water ready and complete your performance,' uh, um,' Shadow Mage'?"

"What...!" Tanaka Takahisa's expression suddenly changed.

Everyone first looked at the paper in Mao Lilan's hand, and then all looked at Tang Ze, who was responsible for writing the content.

Their eyes were mainly confused. Only Tanaka Takahisa's eyes were shocked and still trembling uncontrollably, as if he was feeling unprecedented fear due to these words.

After seeing all their reactions, Tang Zecai took the note from Mao Lilan's hand lightly: "Ah, isn't the last person a shadow mage? Sorry, sorry, I'm not one of your members, I don't remember very clearly, listen to you I’ve always said that Shadow Mage is Shadow Mage... then if that’s the case, let’s change it.”

He picked up the pen again, crossed out the Shadow Mage's name, and wrote "The Fraudulent Boy" above it.

I don't know if it was intentional, but his two lines were drawn extremely neatly, completely parallel to the text, but the words "Deceitful Boy" were exactly the same length as the Shadow Mage.

It doesn't look like revising errors at all, but rather like adding extra notes to the shadow mage.

Tanaka Takakie, who felt her heart beating wildly: "..."

The task was indeed randomly selected by the girl, but the name was not. The name was written down word by word by this guy.

He said he didn't remember his online name, and now he wrote the words "fraud boy" without hesitation. However, the reasons he provided were indeed reasonable, and he, a person who had nothing to do with the party, did not target her. reason...

Did this person do it on purpose? !
