Chapter 690 A Fatal Situation

Yuan Shan and Ye nodded immediately: "Yes! It's been so long, but she hasn't come out yet. How can a normal person hold his breath for such a long time?"

"What should we do?" Mao Lilan anxiously held Yuan Shanhe Ye's hand, "We should really go over and help!!"

Seeing that they were about to stand up, Conan quickly stopped them: "Hey, hey, hey, Lan, don't worry, this is just a routine used in magic performances!"

"No!"

Hearing this voice, Conan turned around and saw that the woman who appeared with Hisashi Watanabe, who had been very critical of him before, had already stood up first. She said with a serious face: "A normal person can hold his breath for as long as Within one minute, even if you have received professional training, it will usually not exceed ten minutes."

She looked at the time: "Hemiya Zhanzi has been in the water for fifteen minutes. This is definitely not normal."

Magicians often control the time to create the illusion that something is really going on. He can receive the most applause when he appears at this time. But the prerequisite for this is that he can ensure his own safety.

Following Kuroba Kaito's words, a group of people suddenly poured into the stage. They were all people from the Gunma Prefectural Police Headquarters and Nakamori Ginzo.

As soon as the police arrived, they opened the curtain covering the water tank——

Himemiya Nobuyoshi was seen floating in the water tank with her eyes closed, as calm as the human tissue soaked in formalin in the laboratory, but lifeless.

A bright sapphire floated on her chest.

…

This face, this posture, this state...

Nobushige and Kuroba Kaito looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.

Himemiya Nobuyoshi has probably drowned! !

They quickly rushed towards the stage. At the same time, the stage was already occupied by panicked police.

"Come here quickly with an ax!!!" A police officer shouted for help.

"No, I want..."

Xinghe Tongwu was about to say something when he was interrupted by Nakamori Ginzo: "It's important to save people! Hurry up and hit the glass jar!!"

"Report! The ax cannot be found!"

"Anything, even a stool! Go!!"

"Officer Nakamori, I think what Mr. Xinghe means is that the water tank can be opened from other places." Yamada Rokuha came over and said to Nakamori Ginzo, "Magic props like this must be more than what they seem to us. Am I right, Mr. Galaxy?"

Xinghe Tongwu was stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately and said: "Yes, actually the top lid can be opened!"

He hurriedly led a police officer to climb to the top of the water tank, but the water tank could not be opened no matter what.

"Mr. Xinghe, where is the door here?" the police officer asked.

Xinghe Tongwu asked doubtfully: "That place, isn't it the door?"

He knocked on it himself, but it turned out that it was a complete cover, and there was no small door that was not affected by the chain.

At this point, someone finally brought a bulky but hard prop from backstage.

"Give way, give way!!" Nakamori Ginzo joined him, holding the prop and swinging it toward the water tank.

"boom--"

With a loud noise, the glass of the water tank suddenly shattered, and water waves mixed with glass shards flowed in all directions on the stage.

Fortunately, Nobushige and the others escaped in time and were not scratched by the glass.

Conan jumped very fast and arrived on the stage almost as soon as the glass jar broke. He was followed closely by Hattori Heiji. The two detectives lay down next to Himemiya Nobuyoshi as soon as they got up.

Conan touched Himemiya Zhanzi's neck: "Oh no, her heartbeat has stopped!"

"Quick! First aid!!"

Hattori Heiji quickly reached out and took out the secretions from Himemiya Nobuyoshi's mouth, then wrapped his fingers with cloth and pulled Himemiya Nobuyoshi's tongue out of the mouth. At the same time, Conan's movements did not stop. He helped Himemiya Nobuyoshi remove the jewelry that affected her breathing, including the "Tears of Venus".

"Give me this!!" Nakamori Ginzo grabbed the Tears of Venus and held it tightly in his hands, as if guarding a treasure.

Of course, a large sapphire like the Tears of Venus is indeed considered a treasure.

Hattori Heiji then picked up Himemiya Nobiko's waist and abdomen, turned her back upwards and her head down, and helped her spit out the water in her mouth.

However, when they performed this series of first aid, Himemiya Zhanzi showed no reaction.

"Come on, come on! Make way!"

Since there is a hospital next to the theater, the doctors quickly arrived at the magic show. They quickly accepted the work of Hattori Heiji and Conan, and used professional techniques to rescue Himemiya Nobiko before sending her to the hospital.

"How could this happen..." Xinghe Tongwu stared blankly at Himemiya Zhanzi lying on the stretcher, his eyes full of disbelief, "Why is there something wrong with the props? There is obviously a door on the lid..."

"Xinghe." Fan Tianli put his hand on Xinghe Tongwu's shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry too much, Zhanzi will be fine, trust her."

Conan keenly noticed the details in Xinghe Tongwu's mouth, raised his head and asked: "Brother Xinghe, you just said that the lid of the water tank should have a door. What kind of door is it?"

No need for Xingga Dougo to answer, Kuroba Kaito has already solved Conan's doubts: "Isn't the iron chain that locks the water tank in a crisscross shape? The iron chain divided the lid into four parts, and one of the pieces should have been where the door should have been. That’s right.”

As he spoke, he walked around the fragments of the glass jar, "Obviously, the lid here has no door."

Without a door, Himemiya Zhanzi cannot escape. This water tank seems to be a certain death situation.

Conan glanced at her: "Sister, don't you like the way we reveal magic?"

Kuroba Kaito turned back and smiled: "This is about life, kid. Nothing is more important than life."

Is there nothing more important than life?

Nobushige looked at Kuroba Kaito, and he thought that it was because Kuroba Kaito had not yet encountered anything that he could regard as everything. Or it should be said that he has already encountered it, but he just doesn't know it yet.

"This is wrong!" Xinghe Tongwu asked angrily, "Both I and Zhanzi have performed this magic many times, and there has never been any problem before. Who checked the props today?!"

Cao Yamamura is not good at catching Kaitou Kidou, but when it comes to finding the person who caused Himemiya Noriko's life and death to remain unknown, Cao Yamamura thinks that he still has some knowledge.

He immediately organized the police to find the person in charge of props backstage.

The man was suddenly summoned by the police and looked very flustered: "I don't know. One week before the performance, Ms. Himemiya specifically told me to make the lid without a door."

"Zhanzi asked for it? This is impossible! How could she ask to cut off her own way of life? She has no reason to commit suicide!" Xinghe Tongwu immediately retorted.
