Chapter 238 Who Calls Me the Magician’s Apprentice?
"Oh, I see."
Doi Takuki continued to pretend to be stupid, but his eyes that had been transformed were burning with raging fire at the moment, and the brightness deep in his eyes was extraordinary at first glance.
Nobuhiro was not in a leisurely mood to chat with Kuroba Kaito. He asked casually: "Mr. Nishiyama, do you admire Harui Fuden?"
Nishiyama Wu looked at Nobutano, his eyes were as contradictory as himself, as sharp as an eagle, but also with a strong business atmosphere.
But anyway, he doesn’t seem to be the kind of character who is easy to get along with.
Nobushige has already understood this with Shira and Kazami Yuya.
"For an outstanding magician, let alone a senior who has passed away." Nishiyama Wu said angrily, "Don't you think using honorifics is the most basic thing?!"
"..." Nobushige compromised silently, "I don't mean any disrespect to Mr. Harui Fuden."
Although he knew that Japanese people valued and insisted on politeness, generally no one would go out of their way to correct others for this. What's more, Harui Fuden is more than just a senior's name, it's more like a symbol. Just like how few people use honorifics for celebrities in history, Nobuhiro didn't add "さん" because of this in the beginning.
Okay, he felt that there was no need to continue asking.
However, Nishiyama Wu seemed to have opened a chat box and started talking about Harui Fuden... ah no, it was Mr. Harui Fuden who was so outstanding and great, and how wonderful his escape magic was, it was just like magic. , how excited he would be if he could see Mr. Harui Fuden's magic show live in his lifetime, but he has no chance and so on.
Nobushige heard this helplessly, and even the smile on Doi Takesuki's face almost froze.
At this moment, Conan's childish voice was as refreshing as a miracle falling from the sky: "Brother Asano! Sister Tanaka calls you up. She has a magic trick she wants to show you!"
This sentence successfully interrupted Nishiyama Wu's chatter. He suddenly stared at Conan with sharp eyes: "What magic? It was clearly because she said she was not feeling well that we paused the magic show. Now she said she wanted to perform magic for us. Look, what does she want to do?!"
Conan didn't expect Nishiyama to be so angry, and said with a little embarrassment: "Sister Tanaka's mood has improved, isn't it good?"
"Then let's go up and have a look." Hamano Toshiya breathed a sigh of relief, "Anyway, we originally planned to discuss magic and play games together tonight."
After hearing this, several people in the chat room walked upstairs. Nobushige walked up to Conan and asked curiously: "Aren't you going to protect Miss Tanaka? Why did she call you down to inform you?"
"Ah, well..." Conan smiled, "Because when I got to the second floor just now, Miss Tanaka had locked the door, and she refused to open it no matter how hard I knocked. I thought she wanted to commit suicide. The result was When I planned to come down to find you first, Miss Tanaka suddenly opened the door again and asked me to come down and call you."
Xinfan nodded thoughtfully: "That's right."
In other words, Tanaka Kikue stayed in the room by herself for a period of time, so it is unknown whether she stayed in the room obediently or did something during this period.
He has reason to believe that Tanaka Kikue is ready to take the next step.
Thinking of this, Nobushige suddenly quickened his pace and arrived at Tanaka Kikue's room before everyone else.
"Brother Asano! Brother Asano!"
Conan stepped on his short legs and panted after him.
"Ah, you guys arrived so quickly." Tanaka Kikue originally had her back to the door, but she turned around and smiled when she heard the sound, "I still have some things that I haven't prepared yet, so please wait outside the door."
Seeing how quickly this woman changed her face, several people in the chat room looked at each other. But it would be a good thing for her to feel better again.
Hamano Toshiya finally breathed a deep sigh of relief and smiled: "It doesn't matter, even if you want us to turn our backs and wait for you to prepare."
"Haha, that's not necessary."
Tanaka Kikue turned back to look for something on the bed.
Nobushige understood when he saw this scene. He stepped forward and stood next to Tanaka Kikue: "Please let me help you."
"Ah!" Tanaka Kikue said in panic, "There will be no surprise if you see the preparation process for something like magic."
"That's right." Hamano Roshi said a little angrily, "Obviously you are a fan of magic, but you don't even have this basic quality. If you continue like this, we will kick you out of the chat room when you get back!"
"Sorry, sorry, but this is also a learning process." Nobushige said calmly, "My nickname is the magician's apprentice. The apprentice learns from the master, how can I not watch the preparation process?"
"You..." Hamano Toshiya was speechless, "You are using strong words to make sense!"
Suzuki Sonoko, who was far away in downtown Tokyo, suddenly sneezed.
Oops, I don't know what happened, but she suddenly had a bad feeling, like... Feng Ping was killed.
Tanaka Kikue put her hand under her clothes and held the crossbow tightly. There were beads of sweat on her forehead, but her expression remained calm: "Well, Mr. Asano, I..."
"Pretending to be attacked by someone outside the house, or..." Nobushige's words made Tanaka Kikue stiffen, "A magic mistake?"
"I don't understand what you are talking about at all."
"It's okay. If you don't understand, I can explain it to you." Nobuhiro slowly helped her sort out the messy luggage items on the bed. It really looked like he was preparing for magic.
"That technique is indeed very clever for pretending someone is attacking you, but because my actions made you suspicious before, you probably don't think it is still effective. So, you wanted to pretend it was a magic mistake and accidentally injured Hamano Lee who was standing in the wrong position. Or, it could be Xishanwu, right?"
At this time, Tanaka Kikue's mood could no longer be described as shocked: "Why, why are you?"
"I……"
As soon as Nobushige's words came out, Tanaka Kikue next to him suddenly took out his crossbow and shot quickly behind him with lightning speed.
Fortunately, Nobushige was faster than her and applied external force to the crossbow before Tanaka Kikue took aim.
With the sound of broken glass, the crossbow arrow finally penetrated into the wall next to Xishanwu with a "pong" sound.
At the same time, Tanaka Kikue had already resumed the original action before she had time to see the result.
For the few people standing at the door, they only saw a crossbow arrow coming through the air and shooting into the wall, but the two people in front of the bed never moved from beginning to end.
