Chapter 313: The Noisy Finale (Part )
Conan's eyes widened in shock: "This... Sister Margaretha and the others will be in danger!"
Akai Shuichi was thinking rapidly: "Could it be that the Oritis Organization wants to repeat the Moon River tragedy? Let Qiao Ke kill the remaining people and then work for them?"
"Mr. Qiu's mental state is indeed unstable. Perhaps he completed the massacre in this state..." Amuro Toru analyzed.
At this time, the dancer looked back at the Crying Clown who was destroying the wooden facilities with a chainsaw, and ran madly towards the gate of the terminal.
However, the door was tightly closed at this time, and she didn't know the password: "Damn, the door is locked."
"No, not Natalie. The exit that belongs only to Margaretha is not here." The dancer showed an expression of sudden realization and changed direction and ran towards the bridge.
The motor that the dancer and the crying clown had just lit was on the bridge across the Moon River. The dancer leaned on the railing, looking down at the river water with broken ice floating on it, hesitating whether to jump in.
At this time, the Weeping Clown caught up. He saw the dancer standing by the railing of the bridge and was so scared that he shouted, "Natalie! Stop! What are you doing?"
"Natalie, come here! Stay away from there!" The crying clown tried to persuade the dancer to leave the railing.
The dancer clung to the railing in fear: "No, stay away from me!"
The Weeping Clown thought he had scared the dancer and immediately dropped the chainsaw in his hand: "Natalie, don't be silly, you won't be so lucky forever!"
"Come here, don't do anything stupid!" The Crying Clown took two tentative steps forward.
The dancer became even more frightened. After she climbed over the railing, she put her feet on the outside of the railing and held the railing with both hands. The snow on the railing was shaken off by her previous action.
"Natalie, what are you doing?"
The dancer sat on the railing, looking at the ice floes with fear, her legs trembling.
"Do you want to freeze to death too? Come here, I won't hurt you!" The Crying Clown persuaded again.
When the dancer heard this, she turned back to look at the crying clown in a daze, and then gave him a sweet smile.
"I won't go back again."
Then she jumped into the icy river. The water pushed the ice floes downstream, but the dancer never emerged from the waves until the card belonging to her floated to the surface.
The big "exit" seemed to mock the crying clown who failed to catch his beloved again.
"No! Natalie! No!"
Conan was stunned by the scene. After the spider, another member of the noisy circus stayed here forever.
"Sister Margaretha..."
However, underwater, the dancer was holding her breath, waiting for the fisherwoman to come and help her. The fisherwoman was an expert in diving, and her underwater movements did not cause any ripples at all. She quickly found the dancer's position.
[Fisherwoman: Okay, let's go back to shore and have some hot tea.]
[Dancer: It's finally over. It's so cold. Luckily, it's an intra-brain communication, so I don't have to worry about choking.]
[Spider: Valletta has changed her clothes, Natalie, come quickly.]
[Dancer: Okay. (Laughs)]
"Natalie!!!" The crying clown shouted in grief, and grabbed the railing and tried to rush down to find the dancer.
However, the savages and acrobats who came over after hearing the noise joined forces to pull him down, and the acrobats also tied the Crying Clown's hands.
The three men returned to the circus tent. The acrobat tied the Crying Clown to the seat while the Savage went to the river to check the situation.
The acrobat looked at the returning savage and said, "How's it going, Muro?"
"The river is flowing too fast, I'm afraid..." The savage looked down at the crying clown beside him and said nothing more.
The Savage changed the subject: "What shall we do with Joke? Hand him over to the police?"
"Let me think about it... But before that, we have to know how to get out. After all, the door is locked, and we need the password. Maybe we can look for other cipher machines."
"I remember I just saw an untouched cipher machine at the carousel. Maybe we can go there and take a look."
"But we're out of clues, right? Four people, four cards... Never mind, let's go check it out first."
The two immediately left the circus tent and went to the cipher machine next to the carousel.
"Shackles, exit, name, stars... The clue here should be a word related to all of us." The acrobat guessed while looking at the logo on the cipher machine.
"Maybe, but I'm really not good at this." The savage scratched his head.
"A word about all of us..." The acrobat looked around and finally came up with the answer.
“…hullabaloo.”
After the acrobat entered the code according to the prompt, the fifth cipher machine was lit up and a shrill sound similar to an air raid siren rang out.
"Great, Mike, the door is open!" The savage pointed to the gate in the distance.
Just as the savages were cheering, the fifth verse of the song arrived as promised.
"The king asked, 'What do you see?'"
"The prince replied, 'The stars.' The fool replied, 'The flames.'"
"The king asked, 'What did you hear?'"
"The prince replied, 'The sound of people's laughter is so clear.'"
"The Fool replied, 'The sound of weeping is like an approaching dirge.'"
Hearing this song, the acrobat was stunned, and the savage called him: "What's wrong with you, Mike?"
"Nothing, I was just thinking about how to deal with Qiao Ke..."
However, while the two of them were busy deciphering the cipher machine, the Crying Clown took out the dancer's music box from his pocket. He threw the music box to the ground and took out the shrapnel from the broken parts.
He cut the rope with the blunt shrapnel fiercely, and did not stop even though his wrist was cut.
Finally, the shrapnel cut the ropes that bound the Crying Clown, and he broke free from the shackles and stumbled towards the bridge.
There were still traces of the dancer's footprints on the snow on the bridge. The Weeping Clown stroked the cold railing and muttered to himself.
"Natalie, I'm sorry, Natalie..."
"I was an idiot and you lied to me, but I don't blame you, Natalie..."
"Natalie, I'll catch up right away. I will protect you. I will be brave, even if it means I become like I was that day..."
Then, the Crying Clown climbed over the railing and jumped into the river like a dancer. The river rippled, and the Crying Clown's top hat and daisy floated on the water, and were carried away by the broken ice.
"Brother Joke!" Conan never expected that the Crying Clown would choose to follow the dancer and commit suicide for love.
Akai Shuichi looked at the surveillance screen: "The murderer is gone...so what is the reward for this experiment?"
The acrobats and the wild men returned to the circus tent and found that the Weeping Clown was missing, so they immediately began searching for him.
"Mike, there's blood here!" The savage pointed to the side of a seat and called the acrobat to come over and see.
The acrobat saw a broken rope, a music box fragment used as a cutting tool, and a crumpled card.
"A twisted man walked a twisted mile."
