Once upon a time, there was a Spirit Sword Mountain world. Wang Lu said, "If that's really the case, I suggest Fontaine be renamed 'Gotham' from now on!"
In the DC universe, Bruce Wayne: "?"
"Linnie!"
[After everyone dispersed, Kong and Paimon found Linni backstage.]
"Were you... startled just now?"
[Linnie's emotions had calmed down considerably by now, and she asked with concern.]
Forensic expert Qin Mingshijie, Li Dabao: "Hey? Lin Ni is something else! She's clearly terrified herself, but she still has the mind to care about others."
Forensic expert Qin Ming Shijie, Lin Tao: "Da Bao, your focus is really quite novel."
"Of course! Who wouldn't be startled when an accident happens right before their eyes?"
Paimon said, still shaken.
"Yes, even I... how could this happen? Mr. Cowell just..."
Linni weakly covered her head with her hands, still somewhat incredulous, and said...
[Mu Ran, Lin Ni raised her head and looked earnestly at Kong and Paimon, asking them a question.]
"Oh, we were talking in front of everyone just now. Now let's talk privately. Honestly, do you think I'm the murderer?"
In the world of Zhenhun Street, Xia Ling said, "Lin Ni's voice sounds so helpless. He must really need someone to lean on right now."
In the world of Genshin Impact, Arecino: "Hmm? Is that so..."
"I can't say," Kong shook his head.
"Yeah, even I don't understand it. You must find it hard to comprehend either."
"Linnie said dejectedly."
"To others, I'm the prime suspect, but to me, the whole thing is shrouded in mystery, leaving only confusion."
"I don't know if the sudden situation on stage was a simple accident, and I don't know why Cowell was there."
"Why the chosen girl suddenly disappeared remains unknown. If someone sabotaged it, what methods could they have used?"
"Even someone who fully understands this magic trick couldn't possibly do it in a minute."
Linni pondered the events that had transpired, filled with confusion.
In the world of Detective Conan, Kaito Kuroba said, "Indeed, not only must one be extremely familiar with the techniques of magic, but one must also be able to carry out one's schemes without the magician's knowledge. It is truly extraordinary."
"I also find it eerie," Kong agreed.
"That's what makes an investigation worthwhile. As the book says, [the impossible is impossible, and if it happens, then it must be possible]."
Paimon spoke with absolute certainty, and as he spoke, he produced a small round mirror and a mustache from who-knows-where.
In the world of Zhenhun Street, Xia Ling says, "Round glasses and a mustache?"
In the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes, an anonymous person said: "...Is this some kind of stereotype about detectives?"
My eldest brother's brain is full of holes, Dongfang Xianyun: "It's appeared! It's Edogawa Paimon!"
"Where did you get those glasses from?" Kong asked.
"I bought it on a whim while we were shopping and reading in the city. I felt really cool!"
As he spoke, Paimon quickly began to explain, as if afraid Kong might misunderstand.
"The Mora was money I saved up; I didn't steal any travel expenses."
In the Genshin Impact world, Kong looked Paimon up and down.
"You've saved quite a lot of money."
"Huh?! What do you want to do?!"
Paimon quickly flew to the side, but was grabbed by the air by his short legs and started to shake up and down.
"He eats 300,000 of my Mora a month! And he's secretly hiding money from me!"
"Wow~"
Some Mora fell out of nowhere, along with two apples, a piece of paper, and even half a sweet flower chicken.
Kong stared at the half-eaten sweet-flower-stuffed chicken, lost in thought...
"Quite cute," Lynette complimented.
In the world of To Love-Ru, Risa Momioka says, "She's really cute, hehe~ If I had a pet like Paimon, I'd definitely buy her all sorts of new decorations every day!"
Eros Chocolate World, Metata: "Add one, add one!"
In the world of Genshin Impact, Paimon cries out, "Ugh! Take me away... Wait! Paimon isn't a pet!"
"You seem to know a lot, huh?" Paimon said smugly.
In the world of "The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System," Shen Qingqiu says, "Just kidding, I know a lot about this, okay?! (Manual doge emoji)"
"Hehe, that makes sense. I shouldn't be so down. I should get back to my usual self as soon as possible."
Seeing everyone's energetic demeanor, Linni also perked up.
"However, now that Lynette and I are being watched by the police, it will be extremely difficult for us to clear our names on our own..."
"Thanks to you for being my [agent], Kong, thank you so much. Now, you're all I can rely on."
Linni expressed her sincere gratitude.
"Please, I'm counting on you."
Lynette pleaded earnestly.
In the world of To Love-Ru, Risa Momioka says, "Don't mention it, don't mention it. Hehe, Linnie, would you like to be my brother-in-law?"
"Your Majesty, have mercy on me!" Lu Xiaoyu said, "Hey, I should put it this way: Lynette, you don't want to just watch your brother get arrested, do you?"
In the world of Genshin Impact, Lynette: "..."
"Don't worry!" Paimon replied confidently, then looked at Linni and asked.
"Oh, by the way, since we're going to investigate, I have a question—Linnie, where was Lynette when you were performing?"
"This...this touches upon the core secret of magic..."
Linni stroked her chin thoughtfully.
"The secret of magic can no longer be kept, Linnie."
[Lynette offered some words of advice.]
"That's true. With something this serious happening, the magic trick's techniques will definitely be used as evidence in the trial."
Linni sighed deeply, feeling helpless.
"Oh dear, what a pity. For magicians, magic performances are a form of creation; we've put in so much effort."
"However, if this secret can help you find the truth, then it will be worth it."
"To explain the magic trick, we need to leave here. We'll go talk to the security team. You guys go investigate the stage and the audience area first."
Paimon nodded, full of enthusiasm!
"Okay, let's go, before everyone leaves—the great detective is finally going to make his move!"
[Back on stage, Paimon and Kong walk towards the police officer who is examining the scene.]
In the world of Zhenhun Street, Xia Ling said, "Huh? I suddenly remembered that there was a 'bang' sound during the performance, could it be related to that?"
In the world of Detective Conan, Heiji Hattori says, "It's very possible, but we can't be sure until the magic trick is revealed... Damn it! I wish I could go to the scene and investigate myself!"
Chapter 229: Collecting Word Bullets...
"Officer, is there any progress in your investigation?"
"We are Linnie and Lynette's agents."
Upon hearing Paimon and Sora's words, the officer's face showed a knowing look, but he quickly shook his head.
"I see, so you're the stranger Lady Funina mentioned. But let me be clear, you'd better not get involved in this mess."
"Huh? What does this mean?" Paimon asked, puzzled.
"You'll understand once you follow me."
The officer spoke as he walked towards the center of the chaotic stage.
"The deceased was Cowell, one of Linnie's supporting actors. Although he hadn't been with the company long, he was diligent and hardworking, and everyone had a good impression of him."
Finally, the officer stopped in front of the area marked with white lines; clearly, this was where Cowell's body had fallen.
"The role of a supporting actor generally involves setting up and checking props, as well as assisting with the performance on stage and creating a lively atmosphere."
"As you in the audience probably saw, the water tank suddenly fell and hit Cowell inside."
"Why is Cowell in the box? Shouldn't it be that girl?" Sora wondered.
"That's the puzzling part. We're already investigating, but unfortunately, we haven't been able to find the girl's whereabouts."
The officer was also completely baffled and shook his head.
"But look, the magic box is located directly below the water tank, and the rope was burned off by the fireworks."
"From the perspective of an accident, it's too much of a coincidence."
In the world of Detective Chinatown, Noda Hao says, "It's just too much of a coincidence, and when there are too many coincidences, it's undoubtedly a complete murder!"
Today we're starting our Star World project. Qin Ya: "Impossible, right? Such a major performance must have had every part rehearsed carefully. How could they not have thoroughly checked something as potentially dangerous as setting off fireworks?"
In the Genshin Impact world, Linnie said, "That's right. The reason I rushed to the Opikley Opera House on the sky earlier was probably for rehearsals. I'll definitely check all the props again before the performance officially starts..."
In the world of Detective Conan, Conan Edogawa says, "Even if the rope was really lit, such a thick rope would take some time to burn before it breaks. But there was no sound at all, not even a whisper. That's not scientific!"
In the world of Under One Person, Wang Ye said, "Alas~ Something is definitely amiss. You must have been tricked."
In the world of Genshin Impact, Naganohara Yomi-no-miya says: "If you want fireworks, you can come to Inazuma's Naganohara fireworks shop to have them custom-made! I can make those beautiful fireworks that don't burn at all!"
In the Genshin Impact world, Hu Tao exclaimed: "Hey! Sister, you're a genius! Extra! Extra! Liyue Rebirth Hall is having a huge sale! To thank our users, we're offering a buy-one-get-one-free deal on a monument! Limited spots available! First come, first served! Aww~"
The officer's tone turned serious as he spoke.
"But if this was a meticulously planned event, then these arrangements make sense, and Linnie is the most likely person to have done it."
"But he has absolutely no reason..." Paimon argued.
"Are you all his good friends?" the officer asked.
"Well, I wouldn't say that, but we've known each other for a short time," Paimon said truthfully.
"After knowing you for a short time, I can gain your trust and even get you to become my agents."
The officer spoke calmly, as if he had expected this.
In the world of Ace Attorney, Chihiro Ayasato says: "No matter what happens, we must believe in the innocence of our clients!"
In the world of elite lawyers, Luo Bin said: "As a lawyer, one should not let any rumors or prejudices disrupt one's judgment. One should stand firmly on the side of the client, recover their losses, and seek their legitimate rights. This is what a lawyer should do."
In the world of Detective Conan, Eri Kisaki says, "Oh? That's a very insightful observation. I'm sure you must be an excellent lawyer."
In the world of elite lawyers, Luo Bin said, "You flatter me, but I am indeed excellent."
In the world of Detective Conan, Kogoro Mouri: "?!"
"I know that magic doesn't exist, but what magicians excel at is manipulating people."
"I've seen far too many cases; people are the least reliable form of evidence."
In the world of Sherlock Holmes, Sherlock Holmes said: "Well, that's true, but people can be the most reliable of all evidence."
"You can't say that," Sora said, not entirely agreeing with the other person's point of view.
"I apologize for being blunt; please understand that I'm offering kind advice."
"If you're curious, you can also investigate the crime scene; you might find something unexpected."
Having said that, the officer said nothing more and turned to continue searching for any clues that might have gone unnoticed.
In the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes, the anonymous author said: "Okay, the plot is moving on to the next part. The protagonist has now obtained the verbal bullet, 'The Police Officer's Testimony'."
