"Yes... none of the clues we've found seem to support the claim of [a third person]."

[Navia said with a slight headache.]

"But the remaining ones, whether it's the missing girl Halsey or Cowell, are both considered victims..."

"Then, could it be that Helsey wanted to kill Cowell, secretly tampered with the gadgets, and then escaped alone?" Paimon suggested another hypothesis.

In the world of Detective Conan, Kogoro Mouri exclaims, "Could it be a case where the victim is also the perpetrator? Oh! I know! Cowell is actually the culprit behind the serial disappearances of girls!"

In the world of Detective Conan, Conan looks helpless; his uncle is here again...

He hadn't noticed yet that the effects of his uncle's anesthetic injection had worn off.

Watching Kogoro Mouri laughing and explaining his reasoning on the sky, Conan was already considering whether to ask Dr. Agasa to increase the effectiveness of the tranquilizer dart.

Of course, the parties involved reacted the most.

The world of Genshin Impact.

Cowell was completely bewildered.

"? No, am I really that hated?!"

First, he was crushed to death; then he was told not to bother others and help him find the killer; and now, look what's happened—he's become the murderer of a series of missing persons cases?!

Is it over yet?

Chapter 234 The trial begins!

"She has no way of knowing the secrets of magic," Sora denied.

"Take my brother away from the world!" Shi Miao: "Oh no, I feel like every time I see a teleportation-related magic trick in the future, I'll subconsciously think of a tunnel! How am I supposed to watch that now?!"

In the world of Detective Conan, Kaito Kuroba says, "Don't worry, a good magician will keep your attention firmly in his grasp and won't give you time to overthink."

In the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes, an anonymous author wrote: "Alas! A secret room has a hidden door, where there is water there is ice, twins swap identities... It's like an old turtle soup."

In the world of Zhenhun Street, Xia Ling said, "There were also those scenes where the killer died at the last second! And the hand was pointing at the most innocent person in the room. It made my blood pressure soar!"

"Yes, even if she could tamper with the props, she would only know how to do it if she knew the whole magic trick."

"Besides, she had no motive. The security detail said she had no contact with the magic troupe."

[That's what Navia said.]

The clues have once again closed off one possibility.

"Sigh, maybe we didn't search thoroughly enough..."

Paimon said dejectedly.

"Based on the current situation, it has truly become an impossible case."

In the world of Sherlock Holmes, Sherlock Holmes says: "Oh? Why is little Paimon looking so dejected? Didn't you say before that 'the impossible is impossible, but if it happens, it's possible'? Hehe~ As long as you observe carefully and think seriously, the truth is sometimes right in front of you. Keep going!"

In the world of Genshin Impact, Paimon says, "Yes!...Although nothing has happened yet, I'll do my best!"

In the world of Detective Chinatown, Tang Ren says, "Ugh! This is such a hassle! If you ask me, it's probably just that Linnie and Lynette are the murderers!"

In the world of Detective Chinatown, Tang Ren says, "We've found so many clues, all pointing to them!"

In the world of Detective Conan, Kogoro Mouri says, "That makes sense. Just because we're following the traveler in the air doesn't mean we can assume everyone around him is a good person."

In the world of Magic Corner Detective, Qi Letian said, "But if it was Lin Ni and his group who committed the crime, wouldn't that be even more illogical?"

In the world of Detective Chinatown, Tang Ren says, "Maybe they're just being clever! They want to do the opposite of what's expected!"

In the world of Detective Conan, Heiji Hattori says, "Seriously, how can a detective use such vague words as 'maybe' when solving a case!"

In the world of "The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System," Shen Qingqiu exclaims, "Ha! Tang Ren! You're out of detective duty!"

As he spoke, Paimon swallowed the last piece of cake in his hand in one gulp to perk himself up.

Then, Paimon let out a happy "mmm" sound.

"Mmm, Navia, your macarons are so delicious! They smell amazing, are so crispy and crunchy, and so sweet!"

"Take my brother away from the world!" Shi Miao: "Huh? Could it be that the dead person disguised themselves as a girl and then committed suicide? That would explain why the girl's clothes were taken off!"

"Take my brother away from the world!" Shi Fen: "Good, good, good! What a logically sound and flawless reasoning! So what is the meaning of his doing this...?"

"Take My Brother Away from the World," Shi Miao: "Um... just to put on a show for everyone?"

In the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes, an anonymous person said: "God, come back to life! Should I bite the lighter before I die?!"

"Hehehe, of course, that's one of my specialties. But Paimon, you've already eaten five."

[Navia said confidently, while also reminding Paimon not to be too greedy, as eating too many sweets is indeed not good.]

"Huh? Five? No way, there are only three, I counted carefully!"

Paimon recalled for a moment, then said definitively.

In the world of Zhenhun Street, Xia Ling exclaimed, "Huh? Paimon can eat so much?! These macarons are so big, I might not even be able to finish one..."

"Your Majesty, have mercy on this world!" Lu Xiaoyu exclaimed. "One macaron is about the size of Paimon's belly, three are even bigger than Paimon's head, and five? Good heavens! If five macarons were stacked up, I wouldn't even know which would be taller, it or Paimon! (doge)"

In the world of Genshin Impact, Paimon says, "Are you being polite?!"

In the Genshin Impact world, Paimon says, "Besides, I'm very good at counting! I have ten fingers, so I definitely won't miscount!"

In the Genshin Impact world, Sora glanced at Paimon, who was angrily posting 'comments' beside him, and secretly compared Paimon with the Paimon in the sky.

It seems like... it's a few sizes too big?

Suddenly, Kong seemed to hallucinate his wallet and felt a chill run down his spine.

"It's okay, I'll just eat it. I'm getting old, it's better for me to eat less of these sweet things."

At this moment, Miles walked over from the side and said casually.

In the world of reincarnated as a spider, Spider Child exclaims, "Could this Miles be the murderer?!"

In the world where I've been reincarnated as a spider, Spider Child thinks, "Could the number of cakes be a foreshadowing?"

So what if I was reincarnated as a spider? In this world, Spider Child: "I'm doomed! The aftereffects of watching Gold Dust are still chasing me!!"

"No, no, no, being greedy is one thing, but how much I eat is another!"

Paimon waved his hand, indicating that he really hadn't eaten much.

"I understand that if I eat a lot, there won't be any left for others."

Seeing Paimon's insistence, Kong smiled with a hint of indulgence.

"It's okay, it's fine since we've already eaten."

[After all, it seemed like only Paimon was eating just now.]

"Even you don't believe me?! I... I... How could you do this?!"

Paimon stomps his foot angrily!

"I swear, if Paimon eats two more macarons, they'll turn into stones right inside him!"

In the Genshin Impact world, Seno said, "Hmm...it seems Paimon is from Liyue."

In the Genshin Impact world, Paimon: "Huh? Why do you say that?"

In the world of Genshin Impact, Tinari: "No..."

In the Genshin Impact world, Seno said, "Because the people of Liyue abide by the contract under the leadership of the Geo Archon, those who break the contract will be punished by the Geo Archon's 'Geo-eating punishment,' and Paimon's punishment can be considered a kind of 'Geo-eating punishment.'"

In the Genshin Impact world, Paimon exclaims, "Huh~!"

"Haha, okay, I got it. We must have gotten so engrossed in our conversation that someone accidentally ate too much. It's nothing serious."

Navia chuckled lightly, then turned and said with great authority.

"Myles, set up the pot and turn on the stove!"

"Huh? What are you going to do?" Paimon asked in surprise.

In the Genshin Impact world, Kong says, "What are you doing? We're short on macarons, so we need to add some emergency food!"

In the Genshin Impact world, Kong says, "Next dish: Grilled Paimon!"

In the world of Genshin Impact, Xiangling exclaims, "Wow! Really?! Can I try some?"

In the world of Zhenhun Street, Xia Ling exclaimed, "Add one!"

Eros Chocolate World, Metata: "One more!"

In the world of "The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System," Shen Qingqiu exclaims, "I'll join in! I also want to try what the pie cup tastes like!"

Zero World, Rin: "G...Eh?! What the heck is this pie cup?!"

In the Genshin Impact world, Paimon cries out, "Ah! Kong, what are you doing! Let me go!"

In the Genshin Impact world, Kong says, "Phew~ Paimon, take a deep breath, dizziness is normal!"

My eldest brother has a screw loose in his head. Dongfang Xianyun: "Alright, alright, the ingredients are ready, let's heat the oil!"

"Everyone must have three macarons!"

"It's like a belief," Navia said firmly.

"No need, no need," Kong quickly waved his hand.

"Yes, it's too much trouble," Paimon also advised.

"Yes, Miss, it will be prepared immediately."

[Meyles, without the slightest hesitation, went to prepare the tools.]

"I brought eggs, sugar, and almonds."

Silver also spoke with a serious expression.

"Your Majesty, spare my life!" Lu Xiaoyu cried out, "Just how much did you bring?!"

In the world of Under One Person, Zhang Chulan says, "A second bloom!"

In the Genshin Impact world, Xiao: "Almond... um."

"Uh, uh... I can tell this really is your hobby."

Looking at the enthusiastic Navia, Paimon said awkwardly.

[Then, Navia made the macarons all over again, completely different from the original.]

However, even with a delicious cake, the group didn't make any progress in their subsequent conversation...

"Alright, snack time is over. I'm going to go explore the area a bit more."

"Although we don't have any leads yet, there's still time. Since you're the agents, I suggest you try to deduce the case first."

"Otherwise, it would be very awkward to have nothing to say when you go on stage."

[Navia reminded her.]

"Okay, thank you for your help, and thank you for treating us to something to eat."

Paimon expressed his gratitude.

"Don't mention it, it's nothing to the [Rose Society]. Miles, Silver, let's go."

"If I make any new discoveries, I will come back."

After a brief farewell, Navia and the other two turned and left.

Only Kong and Paimon remained, lost in thought.

"Use this time to think it over. What follows is likely to be a tense courtroom debate."

"It'll probably take a lot of time and be fraught with difficulties... Well, there's no point in thinking about it too much. Let's just be prepared!"

"Here's my notebook too, so you can review the whole thing, hehe."

Paimon dumped all his notes on Kong and stood there blankly, looking like he'd logged off.

"Take my brother away from the world!" Shi Miao: "Huh?! I have another idea. If the murderer can turn invisible, does that make sense?"

Genius Basic Law World, (Strawberry) Lin Chaoxi: "A very interesting reasoning."

Genius Basic Law World, (Cheese) Lin Chaoxi: "Dad..."
