The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

Tanaka Takahisae still has doubts about this, but Amuro Toru, who is familiar with Karasawa's nature, does not.

He was very sure that he would suddenly stand up and carry out such an operation, which showed that Tang Ze not only discovered the situation, but also had anticipated the situation, so he would not hesitate to interfere with the original gathering process.

So he clapped his hands before others continued to ask questions. After attracting everyone's attention, he said in a matter-of-fact tone: "Well, the tasks have been assigned. There should be no problem now, right? In this way, even if Xishan Your absence will not have any impact on the event..."

"Hey, you also know the real name of the escaped king?" Huang Yi was surprised.

"Yes, he mentioned it to me in emails and private messages when we exchanged some issues before." Toru Amuro, who had obtained the information from others during the conversation, waved his hand, "You can also Contact him."

Having said this, he glanced at the interested Tangze from the corner of his eyes, and changed the question: "Although it is possible that he was just delayed on the road or had something to do temporarily, but, as you know, when we meet this time The purpose..."

His tone was solemn, and his voice became lower and lower as he spoke, as if he really knew what was going on and was worried.

On the contrary, the real owner Suzuki Sonoko showed a genuine blank expression after hearing his words.

The purpose of meeting? Is there any purpose for their meeting?

"It makes sense." Huang Yi nodded and said worriedly, "The Escape King and the Shadow Mage have never been dealt with. If they meet on the road and know each other's identities in advance, some conflict will break out... Insurance For the sake of safety, I’ll try again. Thank you for the reminder.”

"Don't forget the bowls in the kitchen." Toru Amuro smiled and reminded him jokingly.

"Don't worry. Today's young people..."

Arayoshi first didn't show any doubts about Amuro Tohru's identity, and then followed his guidance and answered that he was going to carry out the mission, being completely carried away by his rhythm.

At this point, the organizer and the owner of this place have worked hard without complaint, and others have no reason to object anymore.

As a result, everyone relaxed again and dispersed to complete their so-called tasks.

Seeing Karasawa and Toru Amuro singing along, Conan clearly arranged this group of real strangers in just a few words: "..."

What's going on? This situation suddenly took control of the situation.

And this kind of control does not rely on cunning tactics, but a simple and strong self-confidence and long-standing speaker temperament, which can easily make people who are hesitant or have no strong decision-making will follow their ideas and do things.

The two of them didn't have any communication in the middle, and there were very few opportunities to even exchange glances. However, they very skillfully completed a set of operations of starting, changing, interrupting spell casting, and re-controlling the spell. This was obviously not the first time they had cooperated with each other like this.

His eyes wandered between Toru Amuro and Karasawa, and he realized belatedly that the pair of temporary guardians, who met because of Karasawa's probation, actually got along very well.

In the past, maybe the scene in the cafe was too everyday and too relaxing. He wasn't really sure about this, but now there was no doubt about it.

He narrowed his eyes and leaned towards Tang Ze suspiciously. When Tang Ze knelt down to hear what he had to say, he reached out and suddenly pinched Tang Ze's face.

Tang Ze, who was caught off guard and was really grabbed by him, hissed: "What are you doing?"

What else can you do? Just doubt whether you are the real person...

Conan coughed and said covertly: "You have a very good relationship with Mr. Toru Amuro now. Didn't you have a period of time in the past..."

"The past was before, and the present is now." Karasawa first made a joke out of reflex, and then replied seriously, "Well, my mentality was indeed different during that time. Mr. Amuro, maybe he would be a little easier. It’s a misleading behavior, but he is really nice and a friend who is very considerate of other people’s thoughts.”

So when you hear the news about Bourbon, remember not to make any guesses about Toru Amuro.

Asking is to increase the difficulty of your reasoning and appropriately increase the fun of solving puzzles.

"Okay..." Conan put the question aside for the time being and asked about tonight's situation again, "The reason why you organized that person's idea, proposed a new set of rules, and asked Xiaolan and Yuanzi to participate is because of this What’s wrong with the party?”

He was not a fool either. He felt that Toru Amuro's words sounded a bit deceitful, but Araki just continued the conversation and acquiesced in the hint, which actually explained the problem.

"I don't know if there is something fishy about the party, but there is something fishy about Hamano Toshiya and the woman named Tanaka." Karasawa pointed to the paper and pen that had been abandoned on the table and no one cared about it, "You too Seeing their reaction, it’s very unnatural, right? I guess they originally had a plan similar to that of an internal agent, and they created a magic trick to guess who each position is.”

Karasawa pointed to the direction that Aragoshi had left, and lowered his voice: "To make such a design means that at least one of them must be well aware of the escape king's absence. The chairman who determined the process is here. , what additional roles do we need to assign?”

Conan nodded, agreeing with Tangze's judgment, and his originally relaxed and leisurely mentality was readjusted to full detective mode.

He observed everyone's movements for a while, made a gesture to talk later, and ran upstairs quietly to observe the situation.

After sending the suspicious detective away, Tang Ze just turned his head and was grabbed by the collar by Amuro Toru.

"Tell me, you came all the way here, did you find anything again?"

When he asked the question, he did not use any personal pronouns, which was equivalent to asking Tang Ze's every identity for information at the same time.

It is very likely that Tang Ze will accompany his classmates to join in the fun, but if he really wants to join in the fun, he will not take the initiative to stand in such a conspicuous position.

"I really need your cooperation." Tang Ze nodded and pointed to the snow that began to fall outside the window. "If I guess correctly, the suspension bridge over here may have been destroyed by someone."

————

Everyone in the villa has their own things to do. In their eyes, the disciple of the magic messenger who was not on duty is Amuro Toru, who naturally became the most idle one.

So when he heard Tang Ze say this, he quickly picked up his coat for going out and quietly left the warm room through the side door.

Outside the villa, the snow was gradually getting heavier, and the cold wind mixed with snow powder puffed on the face, which suddenly made people feel that they couldn't open their eyes.

Amuro Toru identified the direction and quickly chose the route. He walked into the bushes in front of the villa, avoiding all possible sights in the villa and walked in the direction he came from.

Not long after, he saw a black smoke rising straight into the sky through the wind and snow, and connected with the dark low clouds.

Tang Ze's judgment was very accurate. The suspension bridge they walked on when they came here was set on fire. The shaky wooden boards and ropes were constantly broken in the fire and scattered into the deep valley below.

There was indeed a conspiracy in this party, there is no doubt about it. After getting the answer, Amuro Toru frowned tightly.

"Hey, Zero? You came out very quickly." He was staring at it with a heavy face, and a slightly surprised voice sounded behind him.

He didn't need to look back, he also knew that it was Matsuda Jinpei.

"Tang Ze is quite efficient this time..." Matsuda Jinpei looked down at the message he had sent out less than three minutes ago, and then looked at the suspension bridge in front of him that was about to break, and said to himself.

Not long after he notified the situation he observed, Zero actually ran over. When did Tang Ze report the information so promptly?

Because of the sudden appearance of the person, Amuro Toru instinctively retracted his sight for a moment, relaxed again, and looked at the bridge in front of him that was no longer passable, with a dark expression.

"Don't worry, since we have made preparations in advance, we will definitely not be trapped here..." Matsuda Jinpei felt that he was probably worried about what was about to happen, and said a comforting word.

It must be said that the murderer this time had prepared a timed ignition device in advance, and his determination to commit the crime was very sufficient.

"How can you set fire in such a place?" Amuro Toru's expression did not soften at all. "It's winter, open flames can easily cause forest fires. Once a forest fire starts, it will not be a matter of one or two days."

No matter who did it and for what reason, it was too unethical!

"...Is this your point?" Matsuda Jinpei's mouth twitched.

He began to agree with Tang Ze's statement. In the past few years of working alone, his friend, who was originally quite smooth, was probably suppressed by the undercover work that had to do dirty work, and went to another extreme of worrying about the country and the people...

Well, Bourbon who worries about the country and the people, if you say it out, it will make a half-gin bar laugh to death.

"What else?" Amuro Toru looked back at him strangely, "Although this valley is quite deep, you all followed quietly, you must have your own means of transportation."

As long as there is a means of transportation, as long as it is not a two-wheeled bicycle, then Amuro Toru will always find a way to go back.

Matsuda Jinpei's brows jumped fiercely: "If by any chance, we drove here..."

"That would be more convenient. Look at the angle of this cliff. If we clear the slope a little and rush over directly, the acceleration distance will be no problem." Amuro Toru glanced and pointed out two suitable locations.

"Huh? Are you going to drive directly across the valley?"

"What's the matter? If you are worried, you can let Hagihara do it. He may be more skilled than me."

Feeling that this sentence is full of slots, but after thinking carefully, Matsuda Jinpei really couldn't refute it: "..."

————

"What, the phone is not connected?"

"Yeah, it seems that it can't be connected at all." Ara Yoshi looked at the snow outside the window that was gradually getting heavier, "Maybe the weather changed, maybe the line was damaged somewhere..."

"What about the mobile phone, it doesn't work either?" Hamano Toshiya frowned.

"No, the signal is very bad, the phone can't be dialed. Maybe the base station is also affected." Ara Yoshi shook his head again.

"This is troublesome. We don't know how long it will take to repair it..."

When Toru Amuro returned to the warm house, he heard this discussion.

Obviously, everyone has noticed the uneasy situation that is about to come, and they are gathering together to discuss and try to ease the uneasy mood.

Unfortunately, he only brought back bad news.

"It's more than that. I saw it was snowing heavily, and I was worried about damage to the suspension bridge, so I went over to check it out." Toru Amuro took off his coat that was stained with snow powder, adding more disturbing news to their conversation, " I don’t know if someone did it intentionally or if a wildfire broke out accidentally, the suspension bridge was burned down.”

"Huh?"

"What? This..."

Seeing them commotion, Toru Amuro did not speak immediately, but glanced at Karasawa first.

There were people from the Phantom Thieves assisting in the investigation, and Karasawa's own ability to extract information was inside. He believed that the deep-seated interpersonal relationships behind this party might have been completely seen through.

With this glance, he was seeking the opinions of his companions.

Whether to appease their emotions, or to take this opportunity to directly detonate the problem and spread the problem for everyone to see, it depends on how far Tang Ze understands this crucial "Shadow Mage".

Tang Ze narrowed his eyes, did not avoid his gaze, and nodded imperceptibly.

This is what it means to have a problem.

After receiving the signal, Toru Amuro immediately adjusted his expression, showing the same fear and uneasiness, and said in a voice with hidden anger: "Could it be that one of the Shadow Mage or the Escape King did it? Everyone, although There is a conflict, but do we really have to go to this extent..."

This is to continue to pile on the emotions, and it also has the flavor of a conspiracy theory, and the focus is drawn to the people who were not present.

Everyone present nodded, shook his head, and was confused, but they all started discussing after hearing his words.

"Impossible, why would he do this..."

"It's hard to say, I feel like he is a bit extreme person..."

"What do you mean? Why did he do this?"

Seeing that the scene was a bit chaotic, Huang Yi had to speak out and try to control the situation: "Okay everyone, don't maliciously speculate on others. Shadow Mage does have misunderstandings on some things, but I don't think things have reached this level yet... …”

"So, Mr. Ara, what is the purpose of our gathering?" Tanaka Takahisa frowned delicately, her expression of resentment was very clear, "Now that the matter has come to this, everyone is trapped here, I don't think it is necessary Are you hiding it from us anymore?"

Huang Yi looked around and sighed helplessly: "It's not a secret, haven't you all seen it? Last month, the group had a quarrel about a certain magician. It was the one who was known as The old gentleman who escaped from Japan, Harujing Fengden..."

"Oh, I've heard about this." Mao Lilan, who was eating melon on the side, clapped his hands. "The report said that he was trapped in the water tank because he accidentally failed to complete the escape magic during last month's performance. Died accidentally."

"Yes, at that time, everyone was discussing the accident, and while everyone was holding their own opinions, the 'Shadow Mage' suddenly said something incomprehensible..."

Just as he was about to continue explaining, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Benefit, Benefit, Benefit."

No more, no less, exactly three tones, so regular that it seems to have some sense of rhythm.

Arayoshi turned his head, looked at the door, and then looked at the heavy snow that was already flying all over the sky outside the window. He remembered what Toru Amuro said just now about this place being an isolated island, and couldn't help but shudder.
