Oritis in the world of Detective Conan

Chapter 298: The Noisy Finale (Part 2)

The Umbrella Soul brothers and the photographer were actually sitting in this room. Fool Gold was sitting on a chair on the other side, calling the professor to come over to his side.

Amuro's perspective swept over the people in the front hall, including the head of the Melodi family, the two managers of Fumanlou, the director of the Azoth Library, and the scholar who could transform into a lizardman. This lineup was not very good.

Fool Gold was hiding from the photographer and the Umbrella Soul brothers: "I'm really impressed by you guys. As soon as you heard there would be a new Supervisor, you all came here to recruit newcomers."

"It seems that they have already met the experimental personnel of the eighth group?" The professor sat down on the sofa next to the coffee table.

"That's right. Several members this time have great potential, and Nightmare is quite interested in them."

"Nightmare? He's not..."

"He asked us both to come here to prevent any accidents, the kind of accidents you know."

"Oh."

Ignoring the whispers of Fool Gold and the professor, the photographer greeted them first.

"Mr. Amuro, Mr. Akai, and the little detective, it looks like you guys can catch up with this screening."

Fan Wujiu snorted, "Huh. You're really well-informed. You came here as soon as the news of this happened spread."

Xie Bian stopped Fan Wujiu who was about to take action: "Wujiu, remember to save people in the experimental field to avoid any accidents."

Conan stood in front of Xie Bian and said, "Mr. Xie, are you really here to recruit new members?"

Xie Bian shook his head. "Every experiment is bound to result in casualties. Before the experimenters enter the site, there will likely be many accidents. We can't do anything about this. After all, accidents are bound to happen in any experiment."

The photographer laughed and said, "Why should we care about that? The fact that they couldn't reach the experimental site proves that they can't even do the simplest teamwork."

"Ah, I almost forgot. The five people in the fifth experiment started fighting among themselves before they even found you brothers."

Toru Amuro carefully recalled the experimental content of the fifth group, and it seemed to be true. The relationship between the five people was almost tense, and it should be difficult for them to survive until the experimental site.

Xie Bian ignored the photographer's sarcasm and turned to Conan: "This time, you will be added to the observation group as an exception. You can interact with the experimenters before they enter the venue. They should all be people you know."

"I hope this tragedy won't happen again..."

Akai Shuichi was a little puzzled: "Such a rule does not seem reasonable. Has no one raised any objection?"

Fan Wujiu had already stood up: "Raising objections is useless. As long as the people who made the rules don't give in, these harsh rules will not change."

At this moment, a flute sounded in the hall, and the photographer turned and left first: "Looks like it's about to begin. Let's wish the newlyweds good luck."

The Umbrella Soul brothers said nothing more and followed him out of the hall. Then came Fool Gold and the professor. Fool Gold specifically told Conan: "Go and find the truth, even though the outcome of this experiment is already determined."

The three people who stayed where they were noticed that the door they had walked through seemed to be surrounded by a strange aura. After Oletus and the others left, the door slowly closed.

"Mr. Amuro, Mr. Akai, although there may be some grudges between you, I think it is better for us to cooperate now." Conan stood between the two and persuaded.

"Hmph, you don't need to tell me that. I'm not the FBI agent who is brave but not wise and only knows how to rush forward." Having said that, Toru Amuro still looked at Shuichi Akai with a provocative look on his face.

Akai Shuichi raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

Conan quickly stood in the middle to act as a peacemaker: "Ahem, let's go to the main hall first."

Opening the door of the main hall, Conan saw the spider looking at the performance list here. The spider seemed very excited about their arrival.

"Little detective, it's little detective, great! There's an audience for Violetta's performance!"

Conan was shocked. He didn't expect that a disabled spider would be one of the experimenters. Amuro Toru also recognized that this person was a tailor from the Golden Rose Theater.

Spider was obviously still immersed in his own fantasy: "This is such an honor. Mr. Jack is right. There will definitely be people who appreciate Violetta's performance. Then Violetta won't have to hide behind the scenes anymore. Violetta can become a big star!"

When Conan heard Jack's name, he immediately thought Spider had been tricked into coming here: "Sister Valletta, was it Mr. Jack who asked you to come here?"

Spider held up the playbill. "Yes, yes. The stylist of the Golden Rose Theatre said that Violetta is very talented and shouldn't be a seamstress. He recommended Violetta to perform here. Look, look, this is the playbill."

Conan took the performance sheet from Spider, took a quick look at it, and then handed it to Toru Amuro and Shuichi Akai.

Amuro Toru read out the playbill: "Five children went to a garden. They were so excited when they arrived, but now they look so sad."

"What strange content! It looks more like a tune than a performance." Shuichi Akai analyzed.

Spider nodded. "Yes, yes. That was a popular circus tune back then, the kind that played in Moon River Park, where Violetta used to perform."

Conan asked curiously, "Sister Valletta, are you saying that before you were in Brother Mike's Noisy Circus, you were in another circus?"

"No, no," Spider shook his head. "Valletta used to be in another circus, and then she met Mr. Mac. At that time, Mr. Mac was the big star of the Circus Noisy, and he was also the nephew of the circus's leader. We performed at Moon River Park."

"Later, there was a massacre in Moon River Park, and everyone scattered. Mike finally gathered a few of us together and formed a new Circus of Noisy Shows. But, but then he disbanded us again for some reason. Valletta had nowhere to go, so she had to try her luck at the Golden Rose Theater."

"Of course, Violetta met Mr. Mike again at the Golden Rose Theater, along with Natalie. They were standing on the stage, and Violetta was so envious. So, that's why Violetta decided to accept the invitation to perform here. The invitation was given by Mr. Jack. Violetta will perform her comeback show here, and Violetta is so happy."

"It's just that Mr. Jeffrey couldn't come with us. He said he had to take care of the animals. It's such a pity. I must visit him after Violetta finishes her performance."

Conan realized something and immediately asked, "Sister Valletta, are there any other 'actors' here? After all, I saw that there is more than one role on the performance list."

"Of course, of course." Spider stretched out her mechanical prosthetic limb and counted on her fingers, "Here are Mr. Mike, Mr. Murrow, Natalie, and Sergey. No, that's not right, it's Jack, the clown. We have five actors, just right."

Amuro Toru nodded. "It seems that these five are the experimenters this time. I just don't know what this so-called experiment requires them to do. Performance, circus, playbill... This doesn't seem to be related to any experiment at all."

After pondering for a moment, Akai Shuichi said, "Perhaps, this play is the experiment itself."
