Chapter 79: Magic Enthusiast Murder Case (2)

Just after Hua Lantian found Mingmei and Masashi with the new mask (what did you say, Zhufu Jingguang, he can only rely on himself now, no one makes a mask for him), he received a phone call.

"Hey, Lantian, when I went home to play just now, Sonoko happened to be home too. She told me that she recently joined an online chat room for magic enthusiasts and is going to a party soon. She's worried about her and Xiaolan going alone, so she wants you to take them there...!"

On the other end of the phone was Ayako, who had already returned home and was sitting on the sofa secretly watching TV series.

"Oh, is that so? Okay, just ask her to tell me when the time comes. By the way, Ayako, are you secretly watching TV behind my back? I'll be back soon, so don't let me find you...!"

Hua Lantian readily agreed to this matter which he had already tacitly agreed to, and then he cleverly noticed that he could faintly hear the sound of a TV drama coming from the other end of the phone.

He didn't want to miss the exciting plot, and he understood his wife's actions. However, he would definitely talk to her about it when he got home.

……

A few days later, a rugged and heavy off-road jeep was driving on a groomed, snow-covered forest road. The bustle in the car overshadowed the cold wind outside.

"Xiaolan, look, here is a white handkerchief with nothing on it, a red rope, and a ring..."

As Sonoko spoke, she showed the props in her hand to Xiaolan. Xiaolan smiled and watched Sonoko's performance seriously, her heart full of anticipation.

In this era, magic shows are indeed a very attractive form of entertainment, especially for girls.

As a girl who likes new things, Yuanzi naturally has a strong interest in magic. She hopes to bring surprise and joy to Xiaolan through this performance.

Hua Lantian, who was driving the car, was immersed in his own world, playing the car music and listening to it, and seemed to be completely unconcerned about Yuanzi's magic show.

However, Conan, standing by, seemed a little impatient. He rolled his eyes at Sonoko's clumsy magic tricks and muttered to himself, "What kind of magic is this? It's too childish!"

As a detective, Conan was not interested in such tricks, but out of politeness, he still reluctantly maintained a watching posture.

Sonoko finished her performance quickly, and Xiaolan applauded her happily. At this time, our Conan habitually slipped his lips, which made Sonoko go crazy and almost choked him.

"Alright, alright, everyone, stop making noise. We're almost there. Get ready to get out of the car. The road ahead is closed to traffic...!"

Hua Lantian slowly stopped the car, then turned around and spoke to the people in the back seat.

"Okay, okay, brother-in-law, it's all because of this little brat who always likes to spoil other people's fun...!"

Sonoko complained in dissatisfaction, then attacked Conan's dog head with lightning speed, and then immediately opened the door and got out of the car.

"Sonoko, you really are...!"

Xiaolan looked at Conan's swollen and red-glowing dog head with heartache, said helplessly, and then got off the car.

Several people quickly walked onto the suspension bridge. Hua Lantian sniffed and asked knowingly, "Smell, is there a strange smell around here? Like gasoline...?"

Conan, with a dog nose, immediately struggled to take off his mask and began to smell. However, due to the problem with his nose, he didn't smell anything and could only pull the mask back on with a lack of interest. However, he had already begun to be alert.

"No, Brother Lantian, you must have smelled it wrong...!"

"Yes, yes, brother-in-law, don't be so scared...!"

Xiaolan and Yuanzi also smelled it and found nothing. Yuanzi even teased her brother-in-law.

Seeing that they didn't care and the only fighting force Conan died early, Hua Lantian shrugged helplessly. Nothing would happen anyway, so just let it be.

They soon knocked on the door of a villa with a warehouse next to it, "Knock knock...!"
