Whoa, this kid is good at acting. “I’m not telling you, Conan-kun. Figure it out yourself, its your job.” Hint, hint.
As they walked on the streets of Toshi City, they met a street magician. Oh? Interesting. The magician motioned them to come and broke into a grin. “Hello little boy! Want to see a magic trick?” Glancing at Conan, Kaito could see that he wanted to decline. “Sure, show him a trick then.” Kaito cut in with a smile.
Beaming, the magician told Conan “Look at my hand. There’s nothing in it right?” He closed his hand into a fist. “Now watch as i summon a sweet into my palm.” Using a finger to tap his fist, he tapped it 3 times then opened it to show a sweet lying in his palm. “Ta-Da! I have successfully summoned a sweet into my palm!"
Sigh, what a simple trick.
"Wow, how did you do that?” Kaito exclaimed, mustering up as much (faked)surprise as he could. Its easy… The magician had the sweet in his palm the whole time… Turning to Conan, who looks equally unamused, he said. “Do you know how he did it?”
Here’s to hoping he forgets he’s currently a kid…
“Whaaaah!! Ojii-chan, that’s an amazing!” Conan exclaimed as he clapped his hands, pretending to be amazed by the magic trick. Of course he had figured out how it was done, since it was simplerer than any locked room murder tricks he had encountered so far, but he was not going to tell Kaito that. He intended to keep faking he was a clueless child.
“I don’t know how he did it! Ne, ne, ojii-chan,” he shuffled closer to the magician, giving him his special puppy eyes, “can you teach me how to do that?”
Haha! Conan was not going to fall for that one, Kaito - If that was your real name. Huff. You probably were nicknamed after an alcoholic beverage too, weren’t you?
