Establishing the Teyvat Organization in KO
Chapter 112: Case at the Opiclay Opera House
Seeing Conan looking a little crazy, the children looked at each other for a while, and finally Moroboshi came out to explain.
"I heard that this is because the trial is a relatively important public event in Fontaine. Then, under the influence of the water nymph Fucarus, the trial also became a performance, reality and illusion, farce and tragedy, everyone performed equally in the court like actors on the stage. Therefore, the venue for the Fontaine trial is the Opicle Opera House."
Mitsuhiko added: "In Fontaine, court trials are a kind of performance that people enjoy in their daily lives."
Yuan Tai: "And I heard that when there is no trial going on in that opera house, there will be normal performances for people to enjoy. It seems that there will be a magic show tomorrow. I wonder if we can make it in time to watch it. Otherwise, we can see which one is better than the magic show that Sister Xia Xi invited us to watch before."
Xia Xi: "Conan, let's go, don't think too much, just treat this as the setting of this game."
"It can only be like this." Conan sighed. Although he still couldn't understand why people in this world were so fascinated by the trial, he couldn't change their views now. And Xia Xi was right. This was a game, and we really shouldn't think too much about it.
As a result, before everyone took two steps towards the Oprykle Opera House, the sky, which had just been bright, turned dark.
Time seemed to speed up, and soon it was late at night and everything around was pitch black.
Just when the children were a little scared and worried about whether something unexpected happened in the game, the sun rose again. And the accelerated time still did not stop, and the sun quickly moved from the east to the west of the sky - obviously, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
Everyone stared at the sky in a daze until the sun stopped moving.
Mao Lilan: "...It's already the second day so soon?"
Huihara: "That should be the case. The game shouldn't really let us stay here for three days. After all, our bodies outside can't sustain three days without food or water."
Conan nodded in agreement: "Since time has accelerated to this time, it means something related to the game mission has happened."
Yuan Tai looked at the building not far away and asked, "Then are we still going to that Oprykle Opera House?"
Moroboshi replied: "Of course I have to go. It must be related to this opera house. Didn't Genta say it would be tomorrow... No, it should be today now. There will be a magic show today. I guess that magic show should be related to the case we are investigating."
With everyone's unanimous agreement, everyone continued to walk towards the Oprykle Opera House.
As soon as they arrived at the door of the Oprykle Opera House, before they went in, they found that the inside of the opera house was in a mess, as if some crime had occurred.
As soon as Conan heard about the case, he rushed in. Xia Xi didn't stop him. They had no choice but to go in together.
They soon arrived inside the opera house, and as expected, Xia Xi saw Conan being stopped outside the door of the courtroom.
There is no Inspector Megure here, nor any other policeman who knows Kogoro Mouri, but no one knows Conan and would turn a blind eye and let Conan enter the crime scene.
Seeing Conan rushing into the crime scene and the guard refusing to let him in, Xia Xi felt secretly happy.
The police before were like blind people who couldn't see Conan running around the crime scene. It's rare to see Conan being stopped outside the crime scene, which is quite interesting.
Xia Xi quickly adjusted her expression and walked up to the Zhuyingting staff member to negotiate without being noticed by others.
She introduced herself and said that they were the guests invited by Lord Water God to solve the case. They would have a court showdown with Lord Water God in three days. The case here was related to the disappearance of the girl, so they needed to go in and investigate.
After listening to Xia Xi's words, Conan immediately understood what she meant.
Although they are not clear about what happened inside, since the case happened when they arrived, it must be related to the game, and it should also be related to the girl’s disappearance case, so Sister Xia Xi is not talking nonsense.
Sure enough, the staff member let them in after asking his superiors.
According to the introduction of the security team members inside, they learned that the person performing at the Opiclay Opera House today was the famous magician from Fontaine.
When the case happened, the magician was performing the magic trick of "substituting people in the box". As a result, the prop water tank used in the previous "water tank escape" happened to fall down and hit the box in the center of the stage. There was a "lucky audience member" participating in the performance in the box.
Conan: Why does it feel a bit like the "Swap in a Box" show that I saw earlier by Linny and Linnette? But there are probably only a few types of magic shows like this.
After the accident, they thought that the audience member had been killed, but they did not find the audience member in the box, but found the body of the magician's assistant.
After that, all the staff and audience were checked, but no one was found, so it was initially judged that the "lucky audience" should be missing. All the behaviors were consistent with the characteristics of the "missing girl case", so the water god who was watching the performance at the time immediately accused the magician of being the murderer of the recent "missing girl case".
Where there is an accusation, there must be a trial. Lord Navilette, who was also present, knew that the water god Fucarus had agreed with the foreign traveler to have a court showdown on the "missing girl case" in three days, so he announced that the trial would also be held in the opera house in three days.
After listening to the incident, everyone walked onto the stage.
Looking at the large puddle of water on the stage, everyone seemed to be thinking about something.
Mitsuhiko spoke first: "Conan, was the missing audience member dissolved by the falling water?"
Conan: "Not sure yet. This time is different from the previous one. There is one more victim, and the water should be fine."
After all, if there was a problem, there were so many people coming and going to check, someone must have touched the water, and if there was a problem, someone would have discovered it long ago. No one knows that people can be dissolved by water, which means that the water is indeed fine. And the assistant was from Fontaine, although not a girl, but he did not disappear, which also shows that there is no problem with the water.
"Oh, when the guards mentioned it earlier, I guessed who they were talking about. It turned out to be you guys."
Hearing the voice, everyone turned around and saw that it was indeed Fucaros, the water god of Fontaine.
