Chapter 302: Adjournment Time: Complete Intelligence
—————May 22, 3:30 p.m.——————

—————In Tokyo, the magic venue where the accident happened three years ago——————

“Aa …

Listening to the shrill screams coming from the owner’s office.

The staff passing by couldn’t help but feel a chill.

Sure enough, the boss acted like a fool every day, and now he got his comeuppance.

The man in the blue coat with a strange hairstyle looks like a gangster.

I really don’t know how the boss dares to be alone with him in the office.

“Should we go in and take a look? What if the boss needs help?”

Another staff member said hesitantly.

The staff member passing by shook his head and said as a matter of course.

“Are you crazy? Your monthly salary is only 250,000 yen. What are you doing?”

“At worst, the boss will be finished, we can just divide the things and sell them and run away. Why should we care about these things?”

The other staff member was silent, and finally nodded.

The two staff members left quickly, and inside the office, Xiang Yuanguang snapped his fingers.

He didn’t do anything, but just used verbal bullets to help the boss recall some legal knowledge.

Looking at the boss whose hair had been blown back, Hedgehog Head said as a matter of course.

“You guys just need to act like scoundrels, but our lawyers have to consider a lot more – right? Tell me, what was the situation with the magician at that time?”

“If we can find out the true circumstances of the magician’s death, maybe a considerable portion of the compensation you have to pay can be transferred to the real murderer who killed the magician?”

The owner of the magic venue raised his head and looked like he was crying bitterly.

The logical chess that had appeared before had been shattered, and he looked as if he was regretting his decision.

If I had known that the lawyer who came the second time would be so wild, I would have just let it go with the arrogant lawyer who came the first time.

At least the first time the lawyer would talk to him about the exchange of interests.

The second lawyer really made people understand what the power of words is like…

“Are you serious? Didn’t the magician die from lack of skills and failure to check his props?”

“But he was killed by someone else? Can a large part of the compensation I have to pay be reduced?”

The boss’s expression changed a little at this time.

Why didn’t you tell me this earlier? If you had told me earlier, I would have told you directly.

Why do you have to let me sit here with my hair blown back by the strong wind and keep breaking my defense with words?

Do you know how painful it is to feel like you can’t beat him or scold him?
Resisting the urge to curse, the owner of the magic venue sighed.

“Come to think of it, I do have some responsibility. Normally, I have to check the props once more before a magic show.”

“But the staff who went there at the time may not have checked carefully, which eventually led to this situation.”

“And the magician from three years ago was also a genius who became famous at a young age and had great talent.”

“I never thought that he would die because of a simple escape technique…”

Xiang Yuanguang touched his chin and suddenly said something meaningful.

“You mean to say that the staff checked but didn’t check carefully enough, which led to the death of the magician?”

“Is it possible that the staff actually did a normal inspection but just didn’t see any problems?”

Don’t you see a problem…?
The boss was stunned.

“But my employees are all veterans. How could they fail to detect the problem if there really is one?”

Yes, if they are veterans, it is really difficult to do something in front of them without being detected.

But if the guy who did the trick is also a veteran, that’s a different story.

A top magician wants to do something with his magic props that would be invisible to laymen.

It’s as easy as it can be… no one can find out. (Ninety-nine Yuankang… did you do this?)

His eyes paused for a moment on the line of Ninety-nine Yuankang, the last one on the list of magic shows three years ago given by the boss.

A thought flashed through Xiang Yuanguang’s mind.

—————May 22, 3:30 p.m.——————

—————Miracle Magic Troupe, performance venue——————

“It’s really interesting. They are both talented magicians who became famous at a young age, and they are both magic accidents.”

“And all of them are because the magic props were tampered with, and they are all related to Jiujiu Yuankang.”

“Haha, I really can’t help but suspect that Jiujiu Yuankang was deliberately murdering me.”

Kensuke Kumemon reached out and ruffled his hair.

It can be seen that he is very satisfied with the progress of his investigation.

However, he couldn’t figure out what Jiujiu Yuankang’s motive was for murder.

What on earth was this old magician thinking? Why would he kill a talented magician who became famous at a young age?

Is there something wrong with a simple brain? That shouldn’t be the case. Magic is not a profession where people with simple brains are allowed to be the top, right?
“The deceased is Kinoshita Yoshiro, a disciple of Kyujuku Motoyasu. He is 20 years old and a talented magician who became famous at a young age.”

“The cause of death was an accident during the performance. There was a problem with the magic props and he drowned after failing to escape.”

Dai Machiko was muttering to herself as she remembered the information she had just received.

With the case becoming increasingly clear, even she can see the connection.

How could such a coincidence happen in the world, that people would die wherever they went? This must be a serial murder case.

“By the way, lawyer, the envelope that Kaga Ranmaru just sent…”

“Just open it and read it to me.”

Gu Meimen looked at the sink in front of him that had been changed countless times.

He fiddled with his hair again with a look of ease.

“That letter contains relevant information about Miyoshi Mazi.”

“If what I expected is correct, she is most likely a relative of a genius magician who was murdered by Kujuku Motoyasu. She is a revenge ghost who has become Kujuku Motoyasu’s disciple under a pseudonym and is seeking an opportunity for revenge.”

“Well, this is also a classic scene. The only difference is that in those old movies from the last century, the vengeful ghosts were often moved by the friendship of their teachers, but she chose to kill her own teacher.”

The paralegal with strange strength nodded somewhat bewilderedly.

I don’t know why Kumimon’s words are so jumpy.

But he still tore open the envelope in his hand and looked at the information inside.

However, when she saw the names in the first row, Dai Machiko exclaimed.

“Lawyer! Ms. Miyoshi Asako’s real name is actually Kinoshita Sakura!”

“She is the younger sister of the genius magician Kinoshita Yoshiro who died in a magic accident fourteen years ago!”

“Lawyer, you got it exactly right!”

Kumimon, who should have been feeling proud, suddenly revealed a thoughtful expression.

My brother was a disciple of Kujuku Motoyasu and was murdered by Kujuku Motoyasu.

Will the younger sister choose to become Kujuku Motoyasu’s disciple as well, and then murder Kujuku Motoyasu?

(This is truly… the endless cycle of evil karma.)
Kensuke Kumemon sighed, then thought about the lawsuit that he had a high probability of winning.

It was as if a large sum of money, Fukuzawa Yukichi, appeared before my eyes, and my mood suddenly became brighter.

Forget it, why bother so much? Lawyers are not gods, it is enough to do their job well.

No matter what, his lawsuit has already secured a complete victory in the future!

As for the magician killing people and such, let that little brat Xiang Yuan deal with it!
