[Conan Magic Kaito] Starfall Night

Chapter 41 I want to see you, right now

Ai Liu went back to the lobby on the first floor, saw Lan Zheng standing up from a distance, took advantage of Yuanzi holding her back to talk to her, and rushed to meet her.

"Sorry for the long wait. I'm back."

"Really, where have you been?" Yuanzi poked his head out from behind Lan, "one after another, it made the person next to me lose his soul."

"Sorry……"

"It's all right." Lan took Airu to sit down, "How is it? Have you found Conan-kun and the others?"

Airu said the reason she had just thought up on the way back without changing her expression.

"Well, I found it, near the parking lot outside. Conan-kun and the others ate alcoholic cakes, and they didn't know if they were drunk or sleepy, so the doctor sent them two back first."

It took a little longer to find it in the hotel, so it kept the two of them waiting—she added.

"Huh, is that so?" Lan glanced at her plate, "I didn't eat it..."

"Let's go back when we go back. It doesn't matter, anyway, those little devils don't know how to appreciate piano performances."

Just when several staff members worked together to lift a very expensive-looking piano onto the stage, Lan suddenly thought of something.

"Speaking of which, Airu can play the piano, right? I saw it on TV."

"Eh? Well, one, just a little..."

This "little bit" is no exaggeration. If it weren't for the current society's pursuit of the versatility of artists, Ai Liu would not want to learn any piano.Because the agency asked her to play the piano in person in the promotional program, and to perform the slowed down lyrical version of the title song of the second single released in the summer vacation in the form of playing and singing, she had to go to the concert for half a month. piano Lesson.Singing well is not enough, in order to play songs, you have to come up with a lot of tricks, Airu also feels that both the agency and herself are very hardworking.Of course, now that her fingers are completely rusty, it is impossible for her to play it again live.

Ai Liu rolled his eyes with some guilty conscience, wanting to throw the topic into the hands of others as soon as possible.

"...Don't talk about me, Miss Sonoko can play the piano?"

"Not at all."

Sonoko said without hesitation that Airu did not give up.

"But Ms. Sonoko looks like a person with a lot of knowledge in music theory. Are there any musical instruments that are more proficient?"

Sonoko thought for a second.

"...... the flute?"

"Um…………"

Isn't that what they were taught in school music class!

Airu smiled very stiffly.

After that, Ailiu also walked around the hall a little bit, but she did not see Hua Lian.After all, he is the protagonist of today, and if he appears in the hall, he will attract everyone's attention, so his absence is also expected.Instead, she saw the signal in Urakami's eyes, and walked to the side table to greet the invited models and agents from other firms.Judging from the fact that all the staff were placed at the table on the far side, Hua Lian really only intended to let her former colleagues come to admire her success.

Although everyone chatted with each other with smiles on their faces, dissatisfaction could still be felt from the tone of their voices.Although Ai Liu doesn't like Hua Lian either, but the other party does have the strength to fight for it while possessing beauty. If I insist, he doesn't even have the strength to feel dissatisfied with her.

(I'm sitting in the middle anyway~)

This is how people survive in a sense of superiority.

After a few brief conversations, Airu returned to where Sonoko and the others were.As soon as he sat down, the light from the chandelier above his head disappeared, and the whole hall gradually became quiet.

"Let's start." Yuanzi said and put down the glass, and everyone applauded.

The stage was surrounded by mysterious blue as if at night, and in the hazy mist, a person slowly rose up from the bottom of the stage.

A beam of light hit there accurately, and under the long black hair that reflected the gorgeous luster, the face with exquisite makeup was looming.The bright red dress wraps her slender body, there is no doubt that this is Shouhualian.But the strange thing is that she is not standing, but sitting on the lifting platform with her head down, and she looks very weak.

(Mr. Miura said that he will appear like an angel, but this performance is obviously very scary...)

Airu, who was sitting at the front, could see especially clearly, narrowed her eyes.

As the fog created by the dry ice dissipated, several ropes tied to Hua Lian's body connected to the ceiling clearly appeared. Because of the strange posture, the applause became weaker and lighter, and finally disappeared completely amidst everyone's whispered discussions.

Sitting Hua Lian was gradually "stand up" because of the rope pulling on her body, until her toes were off the ground, and she was completely hung up by the rope without any resistance.

Ailiu rubbed her eyes. From this angle, she could see Hua Lian's eyes closed more clearly, as if she had lost consciousness.She was hoisted higher and higher by the rope, and the whole figure seemed to be suspended high in the middle of the stage, and her head drooped backward due to the influence of gravity.

In the end, under the terrified eyes of everyone off the stage, the rope that was hanging her suddenly lost its tension, and the bright red figure fell heavily on the stage, making a "boom" that resounded throughout the hall.

××××××××××

"Blood……"

Bright red liquid flowed out from the back of Hua Lian's head when she hit the ground, and soon spread to her red dress and became stained.Airu stared blankly at that scene, and a terrifying scream erupted from her side.

"The person is dead...?! Don't take pictures! Don't take pictures!"

Airu, who was sitting blankly on the chair, didn't pay attention to the panicked voice of the person in charge of a nearby TV station.

At this moment, the lights of the big chandelier were also turned on. Because of the dazzling light, Ailiu came back to her senses, followed Lan and Yuanzi to stand up, and found that all the audience were shouting and pushing towards the entrance. The direction rushed up.

The scene suddenly became chaotic, and the entire hall was in chaos.

"Xinyi..." Lan said softly.

Ai Liu looked over and found that Shinichi also came to the hall at some time, and was finally squeezing out from the crowd rushing towards the gate.

(After all, with that guy around, it would be strange if nothing happened...)

Avoiding the rush of people, Airu sighed deeply.After recovering, still feeling heavy, she tried not to look in the direction of the stage, and stood beside Lan.

"It seems that the phone call just now worked. Is that Mr. Kudo Shinichi?"

"Hmm... But, if you want to come, please contact me..."

"Hehe. Anyway, first..." Ailiu swallowed the following words and opened her eyes wide.

Shinichi, who was walking this way, didn't see Airu and the others, but walked directly between the overturned tables and chairs and grabbed a girl, saying something anxiously.The other party's expression was cold, it was Haibara.

"Who is that woman?"

Yuanzi also showed doubts.While thinking about it, Ailiu first stabilized her urge to hug her head and howl.

"Could it be someone related to the performance?"

"But... Shinichi's expression... I feel that his expression is terrifying..."

"Anyway, let's go and ask first, shall we?"

"……Um……"

Ailiu gave her a couple of pushes, and Lan, who seemed a little hesitant, finally walked towards the two who seemed to be arguing.

"New One..."

Shinichi who was called by his name showed a subtle expression for a moment, and looked in the direction of several people.

"orchid……"

Obviously, he didn't know what to say at this time, who wanted to avoid meeting Lan.

Ai stayed in front of Lan, smiled and bowed to Xinyi first.

"It's our first meeting, Mr. Kudo Shinichi. My name is Fumizuki Airu, and I have been taken care of by Ms. Lan."

Raising her head, she winked at Shinichi and Haibara.Haibara remained expressionless, and nodded almost imperceptibly.Shinichi also responded cooperatively.

"Ahhh! I know, I know! It's the girl who is an idol!"

(You are exaggerating too much, your acting skills are not good.)

"Yes!" Ailiu stopped talking nonsense and brought the topic straight to the point, "You came here after hearing Miss Lan's phone recording, right? I didn't expect it to turn out like this..."

"……Oh, yes."

Shinichi seemed to have calmed down, Airu smiled again, and moved away from Ran without showing a trace.

Lan looked at Huiyuan nervously: "Well, Shinichi, she is..."

"This guy, uh, is my assistant."

"Assistant? Shinichi, when did you have an assistant..."

"Ah, I know this lady." Airu interrupted again, "It was published in a science magazine before! I remember the name seems to be..."

For a moment, I couldn't think of a better name for Haibara who was already using a pseudonym. Aiyu paused for a second. After a second of hesitation, he didn't wait for Aiyu to give someone a name before he could bear fruit. Haibara She has calmly followed her words and continued to speak.

"My name is Hai Li. I'm of mixed race. Please give me your advice."

"Hai, Miss Haili..." Looking at the girl in front of her with a misty smile, Lan repeated in a daze.

(.........too casual.)

Wouldn't it be better to name it more emotionally like Christina or Angeliz?Just being hesitant about which of the two to say, Airu was a step behind.

Shinichi coughed lightly.

"That's it. I was introduced by a criminal I know to be the assistant in charge of the incident I'm in charge of now. I just received your phone recording when we were investigating materials together, and she followed along."

"Is that so..."

"However, this incident seems to have nothing to do with this guy's field, and there are other problems, so I'm planning to let her go back." As he said, he told Huiyuan again, "You heard me, you first go back."

However, Huiyuan only glanced at him, then looked away without interest.

The crowd who had been pushing and shoving at the door didn't rush out, and Airu hadn't noticed it before, but suddenly there was a faint whine from the deepest part of the crowd, which turned out to be the voice of the doctor.Seeing this, Xinyi hurriedly squeezed into the crowd to rescue him, not caring about talking to a few more people.

Because the audience called the police one after another, the police car soon arrived at the hotel.After the policemen came in, they controlled the order of the scene, and Mumu Police Department greeted Shinichi as excitedly as if he had seen a savior.Although there is obviously a young and promising police officer, Shiratori Rensaburo, in the first investigation section, he seems to be always busy going out. Why is Megure police department always on duty during murders? Occasionally, people have some doubts. Let's not pursue it for now.

Hui Yuan, who had big eyes with Ai Liu and the others, disappeared after the crowd dispersed, and Ai Liu stayed by Lan's side, waiting for the police to come to them.

A girl near them was comforting her companion who was scared to cry when she saw the corpse up close. Although Ai Liu would not be scared to cry, she still had lingering fears.This was the second time she saw a corpse. The first time she saw a corpse covered by a white cloth when the police came to investigate. This time she saw someone die in front of her own eyes, and the shock was even greater.All in all, she's a pretty average person in that regard.

However, Lan and Yuanzi didn't seem to be affected too much. Yuanzi was calmly answering the police's questions not far away, while Lan showed a pensive expression:

"That Miss Hayley, I always feel as if I've seen her somewhere..."

"Is that so? She is quite a well-known person in the field of chemistry, maybe she has seen it in some media."

Airu moved her legs that were still a little weak, and said nonsense with a smile.

Lan nodded suspiciously, as if he had no doubts.

"Speaking of which, Shinichi is now intervening in an event that requires such an expert... And he also said that there are some problems, such a scary expression just now... I'm a little worried..."

On the stage, Megure Police Department is discussing the incident with Shinichi, both of them look very serious.

Ai Ru was also very concerned about Shinichi's expression just now, it seemed that there was indeed something hidden.Airu tried hard to persuade herself to look in the direction of the stage. Shinichi was squatting next to the corpse, and the Megure Police Department surrounded the corpse for inspection. She immediately withdrew her gaze and turned her back, giving up the idea of ​​asking Shinichi.

The criminal police probably finished questioning Yuanzi, and waved in this direction.Ailiu motioned for Lan to go first, while she stayed where she was and took out her cell phone.

There was an urge to click on the email to find an email address that didn't exist. After a pause of two seconds, she moved her finger and found a familiar name from the address book.

"Hello? Xiao Ai, where are you now? Don't hang up the phone, don't tell me, don't interrupt."

Shinichi will be able to find out the truth of the case, Airu has no doubts about this.But now the person who can give her a sense of peace of mind is not him, nor Haibara—the first thing that comes to mind is that frivolous high school student, which makes Airu feel a strong sense of frustration.

××××××××××

Kaito widened his eyes when he saw the eerie scene of a woman in a red dress rising slowly on the TV, and unconsciously stopped drinking the canned soda.

With a "boom", the person suspended in the air by the rope fell back to the floor, and the blood gradually flowing from the back of the woman's head under the light could be clearly seen from the picture.

(Eh? What’s going on here? A game of trickery!? Or is it really a joke??)

He was talking to himself in some confusion in his heart, and someone on the TV shouted "Stop filming!", and the screen immediately turned away.

Although it was just a glance, the picture was fixed at the entrance door of the hall soon, but sitting at the table in the front, a pale-faced person did appear on the picture.

That person was uncharacteristically, with no expression on his face, and what he had to say was that his eyes were in a daze.If it is captured by netizens, it can even be called Yan Yi, it is definitely not cute.

Kaito subconsciously stood up, but at this time, she was no longer on the TV, and the chaotic scene full of screams had been replaced by a forced advertisement.

He sat down, stood up again, finally realized that he was still holding the soda can, sat down and put it on the table and stood up again.

"Love to stay...!"

The author has something to say:

Combining the pronunciation of the word "Ai Liu" and Kaito's habit of calling girls, the last line should actually be

"Melu sauce...!"

It feels like it has become a very witty novel...

I don’t know why I thought about the part I wanted to modify before I went to bed, and I forgot all about TT when I woke up the next morning...
