Conan, My Neighbor Kurosawa Jin

Taking the ticket and following the navigation on his phone, Imaguchi finally arrived at the magic show.

Looking at the beautiful house in front of him, Imaguchi was a little surprised. He originally thought that the place where the magic show would be held would be a tent similar to a circus! I didn't expect it to look pretty good.

Handing the ticket to the staff on the side, Imaguchi followed the crowd and walked in. I don’t know whether it’s because the time has not arrived yet, or because this magic group has become unpopular. There are relatively few people in the seats. Look. There is something deserted about it.

Looking around at the buildings and objects here, Imagochi really felt that the more he looked, the more interested he became. Many of the things here are relatively old, with a history of several decades. Although the prices are not high, they are also valuable for collection.

It can be said that if these things here are sold and the money is used to buy equipment, the magic troupe will immediately become one of the most famous magic troupes in Tokyo.

Sitting on his seat, Imaguchi felt a little hungry. He took out the beef jerky in his pocket and ate it deliciously.

"I remember wasn't this magic troupe very famous before? Why are there so few people now?"

The black-haired girl sitting in front asked her friend next to her curiously. She remembered that when she was a child, she couldn't squeeze in the magic troupe when she came to see it. She had to sit on her father's neck to see clearly.

"Because of the curse!" The short-haired girl next to the black-haired girl said deliberately to scare her.

"Curse, what curse?" the black-haired girl asked curiously. Imaguchi, who was sitting in the back quietly eating beef jerky, was also aroused.

Is there really any curse in this world?

"The former magician of this magic troupe you know was Mr. Hooper, known as the Magician of Fire. His most powerful skill was to perform magic using fire.

But a few years ago, something happened to this magic troupe. The son and daughter-in-law of Mr. Hopper, who was supposed to inherit the magic troupe, both died in an accident. Some said they were burned to death in a fire.

What led to all this misfortune was that the magic troupe’s main treasure was the Red Tears. Legend has it that the Red Tears were a sapphire, but under certain circumstances it would turn into a ruby, like a drop of red tears.

When Mr. Hooper's son and daughter-in-law died, the red tears changed color, so some people said that this gem cursed them. "

Seeing that the black-haired girl on the side was frightened, the short-haired girl laughed out loud, and was slapped by the black-haired girl.

"Really, you scared me on purpose again!" the black-haired girl complained dissatisfied.

"I really didn't make up the story this time. It's a fact. Many people said so. And when the accident happened, many people saw it with their own eyes. The blue gem turned red. It wasn't because of the light. kind, but completely red.

That's why such a legend appeared in the end, and the number of guests in this magic troupe also decreased a lot, otherwise. There won't be so few people. "The short-haired girl coughed and said.

After all, the reputation of this magic troupe was very famous back then, and many people grew up seeing it. So even if the magician is changed here, there shouldn't be so few people here as the magic is still very exciting.

"Really?" The black-haired girl couldn't believe it, and silently hugged the short-haired girl's hand tightly.

"Of course it's true. I can still lie to you. If you don't believe it, ask other people." The short-haired girl said with a smile.

Imaguchi, who was sitting in the back row, was listening to the two talking and eating beef jerky. He originally thought that the two would talk about weird legends, but he didn't expect that they were talking about gems with curses?

He had read some books before, and some cursed things were mentioned in the books. However, some of the cursed things were just rumors and coincidences. The other part was because the cursed objects were buried with them. Taste.

After these funerary objects were found, a large number of viruses, bacteria, etc. remained on them. Everyone who came into contact with the objects was infected with the virus, so that they all later died of similar diseases. Without understanding the science, people usually classify this situation as a curse.

These two types are also the majority of the possibilities for curses. It is like the kind of items that are really cursed, but they are very small.

Therefore, it was probably just an accident that the previous owner of this magic troupe was cursed and died because of the gem.

But gems that can change colors really interest Imaguchi. Gemstones are not electric lamps, so how can they change colors at will?

After taking a bite of beef jerky, Imagochi lowered his head and pondered the possibility of gems changing color.

Just as he was thinking, the magic show was finally about to begin. From the corner of his eye, he saw the light in the middle turn on. Imaguchi raised his head and watched the performance on the stage intently.

The magician in light purple clothes stood on the stage, holding an empty wine glass in his hand and shaking it slowly, looking like he was enjoying himself very much.

Just when everyone was confused, they saw wine slowly appearing in the empty wine glass, and there was more and more wine, and soon it turned into a glass of wine.

At this moment, the magician tilted the cup in his hand and poured the wine into his pocket. Just when everyone thought that wine would definitely flow out of his pocket and his clothes would be wetted by the wine, his clothes But nothing changed.

The wine didn't flow out, the clothes didn't get wet, and they didn't bulge. It was obviously not because there was any waterproof material in the pocket.

Imaguchi's heart was also caught by the other party's magic. He carefully observed the magician's clothes and thought about how the other party did it.

The magician took out a large bunch of purple grapes from his pocket. The audience was filled with applause, and everyone was amazed by the magician's magic.

Imaguchi sat in the audience with his palms flushed and his whole body became excited.

The magician pressed his hand gently, and the sound in the audience immediately became much quieter. The magician took out another coin from his body, waved it in front of everyone, then threw the coin in the air and caught it.

The original one coin suddenly turned into three, and then turned into a handful of more coins. The magician threw away all the other coins, then took out one and put it into the palm of his hand.

Then everyone in the audience saw the magician pull out a long ribbon from the coin...

One magic trick after another dazzled everyone, their voices were hoarse and their hands were even redder.

Imaguchi stared intently at the stage, his eyes sparkling and his face full of longing.

These magicians are really amazing! It really felt like magic, and Imaguchi felt like he was going to be stunned. The magic they performed was not at all as boring and cliched as Imaguchi had imagined. Instead, it really seemed like magic, and the people who watched it were filled with excitement.

While everyone in the audience was excitedly guessing what the next program would be, Imaguchi took two deep breaths and patted his chest to calm down his excitement.

When I turned around, I suddenly saw a girl with blond hair talking to several audience members under the stage nearby. Although she was far away, I couldn't hear what they were saying clearly.

But she looked familiar, so Imagination guessed that the girl was also a magician, but I didn't know what kind of magic she was going to perform.

Suddenly I heard a cry. Imaguchi turned around and was shocked. He saw several people pushing a cannon onto the stage. The barrel of the cannon was very long, about 2m, which was enough to hold the cannon. I had to go alone, it was really scary when I looked at it suddenly.

"The next magic trick to be performed is the human cannon. Please look forward to our magician's next performance!" the host introduced excitedly with a microphone in his hand.

"Wow, it looks so exciting!"

"Is this going to launch people into the sky?"

"Just use the cannon to fire at people? It won't hurt, right?" The audience in the audience talked a lot, mainly because this cannon looked a bit scary, it was a huge monster.

The naked magician stood next to the cannon and waved to everyone.

"Next, I'm going to enter the cannon..." The magician had just said a few words when smoke suddenly filled the stage, blocking everyone's sight.

After the smoke cleared, a character appeared on the stage that surprised everyone present - Kaitou Kidd.

Seeing Kaitou Kidd suddenly appear here, everyone on and off the stage was so surprised that they were speechless.

Soon, everyone reacted, and several Kaito Kidd fangirls started waving and shouting wildly.

"Lord Kidd!"

"Look, it's Kaitou Kidd!"

"Oh my God, why did Kaitou Kidd appear here!"

Imaguchi was also stunned. He didn't expect that he had just said Kaitou Kid and saw him here. He didn't know whether Sonoko, who refused to come to the magic show, would be disappointed.
