Konoha: I, Orochimaru, have seen Hokage

The theater is in the center of the lake, and there is only one wooden bridge to reach it. It looks very charming at night.When Orochimaru and Conan entered the theater, the performance had already begun.

The performance on the stage was wonderful, and the audience applauded and exclaimed.

The drummer floats in the air, and the drumsticks that are not held by anyone beat the drumhead; the mermaid is in a sealed glass container filled with water, her hands are locked by iron handcuffs, the black cloth covers the glass container, and the mermaid in the container is uncovered Sit on top of the glass container and salute the audience.

Tonight's grand finale is 'Living Puppets'.An adult-looking puppet sat on a chair in the center of the stage, talking to himself like a real person.

'I'm a puppet, a pathetic puppet controlled by puppet strings. '

It made funny moves, accidentally cut the puppet thread with scissors, and fell on the stage.It suddenly got up again, dancing with hands and feet.

'Long live!I am free and no one can manipulate me anymore! '

Xiao Lan exclaimed: "It's amazing! All the wires have been broken, how did you manipulate it?"

"Sister Xiaolan, there should be a black thread to manipulate..." Conan said confidently.

"Conan, it's jumping rope now." Xiaolan said uncertainly.

"Um... this..." The lines are like a mountain, and Conan can't understand this magic.

The joyful puppet jumped the rope and then rode a bicycle on the stage. Probably because of too much exercise, it started to get tired and its movements slowed down.

'Why?Something is wrong.I'm also tired, and I really want to go back to being an ordinary doll.Take a break, take a break...'

Slowly sitting back on the chair, it muttered words.The lights on the stage were all dimmed, and when the headlights were turned on again, the doll disappeared and was replaced by the body of your noble son Yurama.A lot of puppet thread was wrapped around the corpse, and rose petals fluttered and fell.

Because of an accident, Conan and other three rushed to the stage at the first time, as well as members of the Fantasy Magic Troupe.

The police rushed to the scene and the audience was evacuated.Mori Kogoro walked up and down the stage: "Strange, how did the murder happen in full view? How did the murderer escape?"

"Oh, there is a puppet on the top of the stage, it is the puppet from the previous performance." Conan said in surprise.

"Huh? Really...I understand." Mori Kogoro suddenly realized, "The end of the rope on the corpse is on the doll, and the murderer uses the weight of the doll to jump off, like a seesaw."

"So that's it, brother Maoli is really powerful." Officer Mumu praised.

"It was only dark for a few seconds. After the lights came on, the murderer may have rushed onto the stage to prove his alibi. I was with Conan and Miss Xiaolan, and the rest of the audience did not leave their seats. The murderer is probably one of the fantasy magic troupe." member. However, it is not yet possible to determine who it is." Orochimaru speculated.

"Hey, I'm a detective. Mori Kogoro!" Mouri pointed at himself proudly, "Hey, tell me your weight."

The psychic Sakuraba said in confusion and embarrassment: "Weight? Um...81 kg..."

The members of the magic troupe reported their weight one by one.Zanma Satomi is 55 kg, Yukai is 53 kg, Takato is 72 kg, and Sakinji is [-] kg.

Mori Kogoro wrote down their weight: "How much does that doll weigh?"

"Uh...it's seventy kilograms. It was weighed before it was brought on the plane." Gao Yuan said weakly.

"Seventy kilograms? Well, the murderer has been screened out. The murderer is one of Sakuraniwa and Zakonji!" Mori Kogoro pointed at the two confidently.

"what......?!"

"Hey, why do you say that!"

As expected, Mori Kogoro crossed his arms and said, "Because if it wasn't heavier than that doll, it wouldn't be able to land on the stage."

"Mr. Mori, aren't you joking?" Orochimaru felt that this detective seemed a bit misnamed.

Officer Megure patted Moori Kogoro on the shoulder: "Mo...Moori brother, this should not be the case..."

Orochimaru asked Gao Yuan: "How much does Yurama weigh?"

"About sixty kilograms."

"The murderer fell with Yurama's body, so everyone in the magic troupe may use this technique." In fact, Orochimaru is more concerned about how the body disappears on the train, and the scene on the stage is relatively easy to see through.

They found nothing again. After the police interrogated the members of the magic troupe, everyone went back to the hotel to rest.Orochimaru, Mori Kogoro and police officer Megure discussed the case together in the hotel, while Conan was also thinking.

After yawning, Officer Mumu left.It was too late, and Orochimaru also planned to go back to the room to rest, but he looked out the window.

Huh... The window was opened, and the gust of wind mixed with rose petals came in, and a weirdo wearing a puppet mask appeared outside holding a girl.

"Hmph..." The laughter was piercing and weird, and the strange man left quickly like a ghost.

"Hell's puppeteer?! Xiao...Xiao Lan!"

"Sister Xiaolan... Lan...!"

Conan and Mori Kogoro rushed downstairs, ran out of the hotel, and followed the puppeteer from hell.Orochimaru didn't follow, but knocked on Xiaolan's room.

"Is anyone here?"

Xiaolan opened the door: "Oh, it's Mr. Oshemaru. What's the noise just now?"

"It's okay, Miss Xiaolan, go to Police Officer Meguro, don't leave the hotel." Orochimaru said with a smile, just now he understood how the corpse on the train disappeared.
