Chapter 1152 Don't Look, Everyone
Conan insisted on not letting go, clinging to Hattori Heiji's back, covering Hattori Heiji's Eyes, still using Kazuha Toyama's Voice, "Hee hee~ No, it's me~"
He finally understood why Kaito Kid would use Ran and other acquaintances' Voices to Tease him, and kept using it like a Crazy Cat... because it was too Fun!
"Let go of me..." Hattori Heiji Struggled so much that he threw Conan directly to the Ground, and said Annoyed, "Did you hear me? Kudo!"
Silence.
Kazuha Toyama and Mouri Ran, who were standing in front of the Traffic Police, Turn Head to Look.
Chi Feichei and Haibara Ai, who were standing by the Traffic Police Booth, Turn Head to Look.
Conan, who had fallen to the Ground, felt a chill run down his Back, and Looked Up at Hattori Heiji: "..."
He shouldn't have believed Hattori's Words. What careful and cautious, what helping him Conceal, what not letting Ran or Chi Feichei know...
Haibara Ai Turned Head to Look at the Two People, relying on her short stature and Chi Feichei not being able to See her Face now, she gave Hattori Heiji a cold glare.
What were these Two People doing? Did they think Life was too Neutral? Did they think a Life where their Identity wasn't exposed wasn't Thrill enough?
Luckily, she came out with them today, otherwise she wouldn't know when these Two Fellows would cause her Identity to be exposed.
Hattori Heiji was being Stared at by so many Lines of Sight, Two of which were hiding Killing Intent. He Sweated and quickly smoothed things over, shouting at Conan, "Att... attacking People! I told you not to do that!"
Kazuha Toyama stared blankly at Hattori Heiji, who was extremely Emotionally excited, "Heiji?"
Hattori Heiji smiled and covered up his 'Mistake', then quickly sighed.
Conan was Stunned. Hattori's Emotion changed too Fast, right?
Haibara Ai quietly Looked at Chi Feichei, and found that Chi Feichei was Still Looking at Hattori Heiji, his Gaze so Neutral that she didn't know what he was thinking. She felt a little flustered, but maintained a steady Face, "Brother Hichiji, What's Wrong?"
Chi Feichei Observed Hattori Heiji's melancholy Face, "Hattori's Emotion fluctuates too much, Just Like Bipolar Disorder, For Example, Bipolar Disorder..."
Haibara Ai felt relieved in her Heart.
Fortunately, it seemed that Brother Feichi didn't suspect anything, but didn't Brother Feichi See...
"Romance will indeed turn People into Crazy Cat." Chi Feichei concluded and withdrew his Line of Sight.
Haibara Ai: "..."
That makes sense.
Since Brother Feichi had already Discovered it, then she could rank them. The most oblivious one here was Still Hattori, and Kazuha was the second to last...
After Kazuha Toyama finished asking for directions, A Group of People walked towards the Performance Venue. During this Period, Hattori Heiji and Kazuha Toyama inevitably bickered again.
After buying Tickets and entering the Venue to take their seats, Kazuha Toyama and Mouri Ran huddled together to Look at the Brochures.
"What do you think, Ran? Hoshikawa Togo is very handsome, right? Moreover, he's not only handsome, but his Magic Trick skills are also amazing!"
"Hey... is that so?"
On the other side, Conan and Hattori Heiji rested their chins on their Right Hands, Looking at the un-opened Stage with unhappy Faces.
The Light in the Venue dimmed. Amidst the Applause, the Stage Curtain was pulled open. Two young and Beautiful Female Magic Assistant, wearing tight Bunny Girl outfits, White Suit Coats, and White Top Hats, walked from both sides towards the center of the Stage with the moving Spotlight.
Hattori Heiji became energetic, "Those Two Girls are so Beautiful!"
"Yeah!" Conan also said.
Aside, Kazuha Toyama glared unhappily, and Mouri Ran also Turned Head to Look over.
Chi Feichei and Haibara Ai in the middle: "..."
Due to Hattori Heiji and Kazuha Toyama's quarrel Before, the order of the Six People's seating was Kazuha Toyama, Mouri Ran, Haibara Ai, Chi Feichei, Conan, and Hattori Heiji.
Feeling the unpleasant Atmosphere changing on both sides, Haibara Ai Yawned, Stared at the Stage, and wrapped Feichi around her Hands.
Seriously, Why did they have to be in the middle?
Chi Feichei also Looked at the Stage with an Expressionless Face.
Should he Discuss it with Ai and go to the furthest Corner?
At least they could enjoy the Performance...
Haibara Ai Looked at the start of the Performance and Suddenly remembered something. She Turned Head and whispered to Chi Feichei, "Brother Feichi, don't reveal the Magic Trick Method."
Last Time, during Kaito Kid's Skywalking, it was because Chi Feichei revealed the Magic Trick Method and Kaito Kid's Intention in Advance that she didn't have any Expectation.
"Understood." Chi Feichei responded.
Not long Afterwards...
Hattori Heiji heard Kazuha Toyama Exclamation and revealed the Magic Trick Method with an indifferent Face, "That sturdy Cage must be able to be Opened from the inside. Then, while the Curtain is being pulled up, he secretly Slips out. The Eight Miss on the Stage are the cover. Maybe he mixed in with them..."
Conan, with Half-Moon Eyes, took over the conversation, "No one pays attention to the number of Assistants. Even if Eight become Nine, no one will Notice."
"But the Levitation Magic Trick just now was really amazing!" Kazuha Toyama praised another Magic Trick again.
Mouri Ran smiled and Nodded, "Uh-huh! You can't See the Trace of the Steel cable at all!"
"That one uses a stick to Support the Body..."
Hattori Heiji and Conan began to reveal the Magic Trick Method again.
Haibara Ai: "..."
It's most annoying to watch Magic Tricks with Detectives.
"Noisy!"
"You Two, shut up!"
Kazuha Toyama and Mouri Ran angrily Spit, passing over Chi Feichei and Haibara Ai in the middle.
"Then, as tonight's Finale Performance..." On the Stage, the Beautiful Assistant said Smilingly, "Let us enjoy the Thrill of the Underwater Magic Escape!"
On the Stage, Hoshikawa Togo was handcuffed, his Hands and Feet shackled, and submerged in a Large Glass Cylinder Tank filled with Water.
The Chains on his Hands and Feet were also connected to heavy Lead Ball, which sank in the Water. Hoshikawa Togo smiled at the Audience Seats, and a string of tiny Bubbles rose towards the Water Surface above his Head.
Haibara Ai thought of the viewing Atmosphere that had been completely Destroyed, Turned Head to Look at Chi Feichei, and Intentionally put on a Curious Expression, "Brother Feichi, What's going on with this Magic Trick?"
Since she didn't feel like watching, then no one else should watch either.
Once Chi Feichei Saw Haibara Ai's Intentionally Curious Appearance, he knew what Haibara Ai was up to, and Looked at the Large Water Tub being covered with an Iron Lid, "The Lid can Actually be regarded as Four Squares, one or Two of which are movable Panels..."
On the Stage, the Magic Assistant used Iron Chain to tie the Iron Lid and the Iron Tub together.
Chi Feichei: "The Iron Chain won't block the movable Panels. This Time, you need to cover it with Cloth to temporarily block the Audience's Line of Sight..."
On the Stage, the Female Assistant began to Pull Up the Cloth to cover the Water Tub.
Chi Feichei: "After the Cloth is covered, the Magician uses the Iron Wire hidden in his Mouth to Open the Iron Restraints on his Hands and Feet, Open the movable Panel on the Head, and crawl out of the Water Tub..."
"A Person with good Lung Capacity can hold their Breath for about Two Minutes. At This Time, the Stage Simultaneously lets the Audience See the Clock, and it's best to be able to hear the Sound of the Hands (of a clock) moving. The Assistant stands quietly Aside, letting the Audience, who Don't Know that the Magician has already escaped, wait Breathlessly, Staring at the Movement in the Water Tub, creating a Tense Atmosphere..."
On the Stage, after the Assistant moved the large Clock onto the Stage, the Sound of the Hands (of a clock) moving also rang out around them, and the Assistants Stood quietly Aside.
Kazuha Toyama: "..."
Mouri Ran: "..."
Hattori Heiji: "..."
Conan: "..."
Actually 'reporting' One Step Ahead of the Performance?
That's Excessive.
"And then?" Haibara Ai asked gleefully, Seeing the other Four People's Speechless Faces, "Does the Magician Suddenly appear in another Place?"
Chi Feichei Stared at the Stage, "He hasn't taken the opportunity to mix off the Stage yet. He Should Still be hiding above the Water Tub, so he won't appear among the Audience Seats, but will use the Means commonly used by the legendary Magician Houdini in Escape Magic, pretending that there was an Accident, letting the Staff go up and try to lower the Curtain. One is to make the Audience more Tense, and the other is to allow the Magician to take the opportunity to come down from above the Water Tub."
Ten minutes later, there was no Movement in the Water Tub.
Not only were the Audience Whispering, but the Magic Assistants also began to talk in low Voices, and then waved to the side of the Stage, asking Two Outside Staff to come on Stage.
The Bunny Girl Magic Assistant was covered in Sweat, "It Seems like there's a Problem..."
One Staff member reached the side of the Water Tub, "Close the Curtain! Close the Curtain quickly!"
Another Staff member also shouted quickly, "Quick! Bring the Axe over!"
Conan and Hattori Heiji rested their chins on their Right Hands, Looking at the Stage with Half-Moon Eyes, and made a Sound of laughter without any Emotion in unison.
Heh heh, exactly the Same...
Thank You very much, Brother Feichi. They didn't even have the Expectation to appreciate the Stage Effect.
"But, What If something really happens?" Mouri Ran hesitated for A Bit, then stood up and ran towards the Stage.
"That's right!" Kazuha Toyama followed.
Conan and Hattori Heiji were Stunned for A Bit. Before they could stop them, they Saw Two Girls running towards the Stage.
"At This Time, a Warm-hearted Audience appears, which is A Bit beyond the Magician and Assistant's Expectation," Chi Feichei said in a Tone of Neutral Voice, "The Staff will desperately try to stop them, delaying Time. The Magician will hurriedly come down from behind the Cloth covering the Water Tub, pretending that he just escaped from the Water..."
Hattori Heiji slapped his Palm on his Forehead and sighed weakly.
Please, Brother Feichi, spare him.
Conan sighed with Half-Moon Eyes.
He was wrong. He wouldn't spoil the fun next Time.
On the Stage, after Mouri Ran and Kazuha Toyama rushed up, they directly Subdued the Staff who were blocking them.
Just as Mouri Ran was preparing to use Karate to Violently Tank Breaking, the Cloth covering the Water Tub was pulled open, and Hoshikawa Togo, with Iron Restraints Still connected to his Feet, sat behind the Cloth, panting.
"For This Situation, the Magician will not blame them," Chi Feichei said, "Being able to calmly Handle any Accident and Handle it in the best way is also a necessary Ability for a Magician."
On the Stage, Hoshikawa Togo smiled and responded to the Audience, then announced the Success of the Magic Trick, and also asked the Audience to give Mouri Ran and Kazuha Toyama Applause, using the Two Girls' real Reaction to make the Escape Magic appear even more exciting.
The Magic Show ended perfectly. Mouri Ran and Kazuha Toyama inexplicably showed their Faces on the Stage at the End, and then followed to the Lounge to Apology to Hoshikawa Togo.
"We were worried that something really happened, so we Subconsciously... We're really very Sorry!"
"It's okay," Hoshikawa Togo, who had changed into dry Clothes and was sitting on the Chair, smiled and Blinked at the Two Girls, "Moreover, I was able to escape thanks to you, because when I was about to faint in the Water Tank, I heard the Voice of Love."
There was a second of silence.
Kazuha Toyama said Speechless, "Isn't it because you had already Opened the Handcuffs and Leg Irons with the Iron Wire hidden in your Mouth when the Cloth was pulled up?"
"There are also one or Two movable Panels on the Lid of the Water Tub above," Mouri Ran recalled what Chi Feichei said, "After escaping, you move the movable Panel of the Lid above and hide on the Water Tub..."
Hoshikawa Togo: "..."
He originally wanted to make the Girl Happy, but the Insider Information was already known by the Households, which was embarrassing.
But the Problem was, Since they knew, did they Still worry that he would have an Accident and rush onto the Stage?
Wouldn't that be worrying that he was too incompetent to even Open the Gadget that had been tampered with?
Happy Children's Day... Bonus Chapter at Night!

Chi Feichei and Haibara Ai, who were standing by the Traffic Police Booth, Turn Head to Look.
Conan, who had fallen to the Ground, felt a chill run down his Back, and Looked Up at Hattori Heiji: "..."
