Chapter 1520 1528 [There's something wrong with this circus]
"It's a temporary prop for the performance." The beautiful woman raised her chin and pointed over there. "When the show starts, you put it on and jump around in the cage ferociously. It will definitely be more vivid than our mechanism."
Okiya Subaru: "???"
Ever since he stepped into this place, he always felt that something was wrong.
Before, he thought that this might be the sequelae of Uzo's nightmare.
However, now, seeing the empty cages in front of him and hearing the beautiful woman's words, Okiya Subaru suddenly understood.
He suddenly looked at the advertising leaflet beside him, and then realized that the fancy English variant with the London Eye as the background said "magic" instead of "circus".
This is actually a magic troupe... Where's the circus? ?
Subaru Okiya couldn't help but speak: "Um, I remember hearing that you were a circus before, why are you performing magic now?"
The pretty woman lit a long, thin cigarette and exhaled a puff of smoke. "Aren't they all the same? You don't think the circus only has acrobatics and no magic."
Okiya Subaru: "No, no, no, there are some differences. Those animals..."
When this was mentioned, the beautiful woman snorted:
“After just two performances, animal protection workers came to protest and insisted on taking the animals for inspection, saying they would give them proper resettlement. I think those bastards are just looking for trouble!
"But there's nothing we can do. He's the local boss. We can only perform like this for now." She pouted in dissatisfaction, then patted Subaru Okiya's shoulder vigorously, "Don't worry, we can handle such complicated acrobatics, let alone this little magic trick."
Okiya Subaru: "..." It didn't matter what the performance was, and he didn't really care whether this group of people could handle him, but the animals he expected to have no killing intentions and not be controlled by Uzo, just "pop", all disappeared...
"Okay, stop being dazed and try it on." The beautiful woman walked over to the fake skin, picked it up and threw it at Subaru Okiya, "Jump in the cage a few times. Remember to be ferocious."
“…”
Okiya Subaru was in no mood and just jumped twice perfunctorily.
To play an animal that looks lifelike is obviously too difficult for an outsider.
The beautiful woman laughed out loud, not noticing his perfunctory attitude. She was just looking for something to do to amuse herself. "Okay, stop dancing. It seems you don't have the talent for acting."
She waved her hand and said, "Go ahead and continue packing. Find a room to rest when you're done. We've already discussed your job. Tomorrow during the performance, you'll be in the audience to warm up the crowd. You can do this if you have a mouth. Learn how others cheer in advance and don't let them down."
Okiya Subaru nodded tiredly and watched her leave. He always felt that this magic troupe was not very reliable.
But fortunately, this is the last stop - after the performance in London tomorrow night, the circus will pack up and head to the United States.
Although the cute animals that he had imagined to protect him were no longer there, fortunately there were not many members in this circus and they were all busy with their own things. Not many people had time to pay attention to him, which made him feel a little relieved.
Okiya Subaru: “…” It will work this time!
Moreover, this was a Japanese magic troupe, and all the members were Asian, so he did not stand out among them.
It is not easy to find such a multinational performing arts troupe in a foreign country in a short period of time, so we have to make do with what we have…
…
The next day, on a busy commercial street.
A group of people were strolling around casually, carrying bags of various sizes.
"I have an exam next week, so I have to go back as soon as possible. Oh, how time flies so fast."
Mao Lilan sighed, flipped through the notebook, and looked at the schedule she had checked on it - fortunately, she had basically visited all the places she needed to visit, taken all the photos she needed to take, and bought a lot of clothes, so this trip was not in vain.
Considering the long journey, they should board the plane tomorrow. Today is the last day of their trip.
The morning was over in a flash.
As for the afternoon schedule...
Conan was torn between "Sherlock Holmes' former residence" and "the suspicious Subaru Okiya in Miss Yoko's crew", but finally decided to put business first and go to the crew to take a look.
The former residence of Sherlock Holmes is there and he can't move away. Besides, from what Jiang Xia said, this restless neighbor seems to want to come and watch the tennis match in a month - at worst, he can go along then. After all, he is just an elementary school student and can skip classes if he wants. He has already mastered the little things he has learned.
…
After making this secret decision, after lunch, Conan found that Mao Lilan was a little tired from shopping, so he mentioned his personal affairs: "Let's go to Miss Yoko's crew again."
"The crew?" Mao Lilan was a little surprised at first, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that there were no other attractions she wanted to go. In addition, there were indeed a few autographs that she had not received yesterday, so she was immediately tempted and nodded.
They hailed a taxi and soon arrived at the crew they had visited yesterday.
When we arrived at the place, we saw a group of crew members who were about to go to shoot nearby - although the male lead died suddenly, fortunately, in this drama, the male lead has many scenes with his face covered.
Directors in Tokyo are more or less prepared for the loss of actors during filming, and those who are not prepared are eliminated. The director of this crew obviously knows what he should do at this time - first find a stand-in to shoot the scenes that can be filmed, and then contact a suitable actor to replace the deceased Nanjo Hayato.
The director was secretly planning the plot to be filmed, but when he looked up, he suddenly found a few people walking towards him.
He looked at this group of familiar guys, his eyes fell on Jiang Xia, and his eyes twitched slightly: "Why are you here again?"
After Jiang Xia and the others left yesterday, the director had someone clean up the building.
Then they discovered that Jiang Xia had dug a hole in the warehouse where Okiya Subaru was captured.
When the director thought about what happened yesterday, and how he was also one of the suspects, he felt pain all over his body as soon as he saw Jiang Xia, as if he was being hit by an invisible stick.
Jiang Xia didn't pay attention to his unusual expression. He looked at the people in the crew and asked, "Is Miss Yoko not here?"
The director heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. He pointed to the crew building behind him and said, "She doesn't have any scenes this afternoon. She should be resting. If you have anything to do, go find her yourself."
Then he waved his hand, led a group of people across Jiangxia and hurried away.
Conan looked carefully among the crowd but did not find Okiya Subaru.
Jiang Xia also looked around for a while, and then the few of them turned their eyes away from the crew and went into the building.
