Chapter 441 Come On, Let's Hurt Each Other
The next day.
Narita Airport.
A group of people walked towards the Boarding Gate. People on the periphery were pulling suitcases, while those in the middle were either wearing sunglasses and hats or masks.
Odagiri Toshiya had dyed his hair purple again and was wearing his purple sunglasses, striding ahead energetically.
Chi Feichei waited at the boarding gate, still dressed in black Clothes and wearing sunglasses. He looked up and saw a large group of people approaching, and he also saw Odagiri Toshiya at the front.
"Let me tell you," Odagiri Toshiya said as he approached, pretending not to see Chi Feichei, and continued to speak to the people beside him with a smile, "I've always wanted to take a trip with a large group of people like this!"
As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused many Girls in the crowd to giggle and jeer, and even some young men joined in with playful banter.
Chi Feichei understood, retracted his Gaze, and also pretended not to recognize Odagiri Toshiya.
Hissashi, however, curiously poked its head out, "Master, Toshiya is very... very... how do you say that word?"
"Cocky." Chi Feichei said in a low voice.
"Huh?"
Morizono Kikuto walked over from the side, dressed in casual white clothes, also wearing sunglasses on his Face. He looked at the crowd, "You're all here, does that mean I'm the last one?"
"No, there's still..." A Girl pulling a suitcase was puzzled.
The most widely circulated rumor in THK Entertainment Company was about the three Bosses.
Everyone inside the Company knew that three young Friends had started the Company together.
They had seen the Company President many times, and Morizono Kikuto also occasionally went to chat with the Girls, but there was still one most mysterious Boss that many of them had never seen.
It was said that all three Bosses would be going this time, wasn't it?
Clearly, there was still one missing...
Everyone silently shifted their Line of Sight to Chi Feichei.
If you really wanted to say it, there had been one waiting here for a long time...
Morizono Kikuto saw the others quietly turn their heads to look at Chi Feichei, and was a little confused, "What's wrong?"
"You've ruined our Plan!" Odagiri Toshiya glared at Morizono Kikuto pretending to be serious.
The others immediately understood.
"President!"
"So you were pretending not to know each other, teasing us..."
"How annoying, I really thought you were strangers..."
Odagiri Toshiya faced the accusations and playful complaints, still smiling triumphantly, "With so many people, I specially chartered a flight to Osaka, how could there be strangers waiting here?"
Chi Feichei noticed that there were a few too many curious Gazes, calmly withstood them, and nodded to the group as a greeting.
In the past two days, Fulante had not needed to use Disguise to contact the target, and he also happened to go out for a stroll with the people from the Company to avoid staying in Tokyo every day.
"Have the people entering the Door been decided yet?" Morizono Kikuto looked at the group of people, turned his Head and teased Chi Feichei, "Midorikawa, Kuraki, Komatsu, all three were signed at your suggestion, you get to choose first, you can only choose one, the rest belong to me and Toshiya."
Chi Feichei: "..."
A perfectly good Entertainment Company group outing, turned into something else.
Komatsu Miho was indeed on his List back then.
After all, she was also a singer who had sung a Conan Theme Song, and he had prepared the Song, so he had to dig her over.
However, he hadn't paid much attention to it afterwards.
There should be many Reporters guarding the Entrance of tonight's Cocktail Party, and the organizers have also prepared a red carpet Passage at the Entrance. What Morizono Kikuto was talking about was who would partner with whom to enter the Door later.
The others were used to Morizono Kikuto's sometimes-improper Jokes and looked at Chi Feichei with smiles.
"I'll take the Back Door." Chi Feichei said decisively.
Coupled with that calm Sound, it was merciless...
Odagiri Toshiya sighed, "I heard the Sound of hearts breaking."
"There's a bit of unrest in Britain. As long as my Eyes are photographed, I might encounter Shooting when I come out of the Cocktail Party, do you believe it?" Chi Feichei casually found a Reason.
Regardless of whether there were Undercover Agent in some dangerous Organization, he didn't want to expose his Face in front of the media.
Not only him, but his cheap Old Dad and Old Mom had similar Ideas, make a fortune in silence, don't publicize it, and show your Face less, to avoid being kidnapped... cough, if too many people know your appearance, it would be troublesome to bring a group of Bodyguard when going out.
And he wasn't exactly talking nonsense, the Bounty on him hadn't been withdrawn yet, it's just that no one was taking Action now, what if there were one or two who were out of their Mind?
"Is the Situation over there that serious?" Morizono Kikuto stopped joking, "Then do you want Toshiya to arrange two Bodyguard for you? Let them take the next Flight, they should be able to reach Osaka before the Cocktail Party starts."
"That's No Need." Chi Feichei refused.
To say the Situation was serious, it wasn't really, his Old Dad and Old Mom were steadily gaining the upper hand and were bound to win.
To say it wasn't serious, Life safety was still threatened. He was fine, being far away from the Main Battlefield. The other side mainly wanted to send two Assassins or Cannon Fodder to try and steal a hit, to see if they could affect his Old Dad and Old Mom, while Old Dad and Old Mom really had to pay attention to Safety, they might be attacked when they Go Out.
Fortunately, the Main Battlefield was in Britain, at least there wasn't the 'Gun Culture' as terrifying as in America.
...
Before long, the group of people boarded the Airplane again with a whoosh.
Anyway, there were no Outsider, and Hissashi was directly brought up by Chi Feichei.
Chi Feichei, Morizono Kikuto, and Odagiri Toshiya sat together, making it convenient to talk.
"If you show off your Snake, you can scare away a lot of Girls, not everyone is like my sister, who dares to pick up a Snake and play with it when they see one..." Morizono Kikuto looked around with a bit of a headache. No Girls were sitting around them, not even boys.
The chartered Airplane was not full to begin with, and now the seats around them were empty.
Hissashi probed its Head out in dissatisfaction and spat Snake Tongue at Morizono Kikuto.
Meaning, it was blocking Master's Romance?
It couldn't be its Reason, it didn't admit it!
"They are to avoid hearing what we say that is inconvenient for others to hear." Chi Feichei indicated that this was not Hissashi's Responsibility.
"Okay, okay... By the Way, where's Miss Suzuki?" Morizono Kikuto didn't forget that there was another Girl Shareholder on their side, "Toshiya, have you told her?"
"She said she's going to another Cocktail Party with her Father today, so she won't be going with us," Odagiri Toshiya looked at Chi Feichei and said with emotion, "You people are really Troublesome."
Chi Feichei: "Two-time Suspect."
Let's see who is more Troublesome?
Odagiri Toshiya: "..."
Morizono Kikuto immediately laughed like a Flower.
Odagiri Toshiya: "Victim who almost died from Snake Venom."
Compare if you want to compare...
The smile on Morizono Kikuto's Face froze, and he looked at Chi Feichei, "Frequent visitor to the Crime Scene."
Come on, let's hurt each other.
Chi Feichei took off his Sunglasses, turned his Head and looked over coldly, "I didn't laugh at you."
Morizono Kikuto: "..."
Uh, seems like he picked the wrong target...
On the side, Kuraki Mai and Komatsu Miho turned their Heads to stare.
"It's really purple..."
In the front few rows, two Girls turned their Heads to stare.
"Purple? Mr. Chi's Eyes?"
"Wow, really..."
More people turned their Heads back.
Chi Feichei: "..."
Back rows... the back rows couldn't be seen, but since everyone on the Airplane was their own people, the group became lively and simply left their Seats and ran to the front rows.
Before being surrounded and watched like a Giant panda, Chi Feichei put his Sunglasses back on and said to Odagiri Toshiya in a low voice, "The Company atmosphere is good, very Vitality."
"Sigh..."
Seeing Chi Feichei put his Sunglasses back on, the Airplane was immediately filled with neat and uniform sighs of complaint.
"You usually don't come to the Company to play with me, so just satisfy everyone's Curiosity this time, they were looking forward to it like Fans seeing their idols before they came," Odagiri Toshiya complained on behalf of everyone, and then asked, "By the Way, was that Case yesterday solved?"
"Suicide." Chi Feichei said, "Whichever of the four Suspect is convicted, she wins."
Odagiri Toshiya was stunned, took off his Sunglasses, and said with a Face full of emotion, "Actually, she didn't need to do this. After the Program is broadcast, it's not too late to listen to me sing a Song and then define whether I'm a Traitor or not."
"She thinks you can't start a Company and have to spend your whole Life in that kind of Place, so you should give up your Future to cater to her?" Chi Feichei said mercilessly, "She didn't think about you at all, she was just obsessed with her own Fantasy, and you don't need to be entangled."
"Can't you let me sigh for a while?" Odagiri Toshiya was Speechless, "It's rare for a Girl to be so obsessed with me..."
"He's worried that you care too much and will be sad." Morizono Kikuto also spoke the great truth.
"Moreover..." A Girl in the back two rows pretended to look puzzled, "No Girl is so obsessed with you? President, are you Joking?"
"We are all quite obsessed!"
"That's right, there are so many of us here..."
"Actually ignoring us, so excessive..."
"President, although I'm a man, I'm also very obsessed with you!"
Seeing the surroundings become noisy again, Odagiri Toshiya didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Hey, hey, quiet, quiet, Company Rules, no teasing the President!"
Chi Feichei was very clear about what Odagiri Toshiya's unspoken Teasing was—
These Fairies!
It was noisy all the way. When they arrived in Osaka, a group of people got off the Airplane, checked into the Hotel that Odagiri Toshiya had booked, had Lunch, and then returned to their Rooms to rest and prepare for the Cocktail Party.
"Miho," Kuraki Mai chased after Komatsu Miho out of the Dining Room and whispered, "Can you keep me Company to Go Out for a while? Or lend me a Formal Dress?"
"Didn't you prepare a dark green Formal Dress?" Komatsu Miho asked in confusion, "I think it looks pretty good, did you forget to bring it?"
"It's not that..." Kuraki Mai's smile carried a hint of embarrassment.
"It's okay, I'm not British People," Chi Feichei came out of the Dining Room and passed by with Odagiri Toshiya and Morizono Kikuto, "And not all British People hate dark green."
Kuraki Mai: "..."
Σ(|||▽|||)
She wanted to change her Formal Dress, indeed because she considered that Chi Feichei's Old Mom was British People, and was worried that Chi Feichei had British People Ideology and hated Colors like dark green.
He heard it...
He saw through it...
What Expression should she make now, waiting Online.
Odagiri Toshiya saw Kuraki Mai standing aside at a loss and glanced at Chi Feichei.
Dare to be any more direct?
Ah, no, there probably couldn't be anything more direct than this.
...
In the evening, a group of people set off, and a row of Cars stopped near the 'K3 Hotel' that was about to open.
Chi Feichei got out of the Car, looked at the large group of Reporters over there from a distance, and put on his Sunglasses.
"Then we'll go in through the main Entrance, see you inside." Odagiri Toshiya said.
"It's a good thing we brought enough people," Morizono Kikuto was still thinking about the matter of partnering up to enter the Door, touched his chin and thought, "Any combination will do."
"You can Consider having everyone enter together." Chi Feichei dropped a Sentence, closed the Car Door, and left.
Odagiri Toshiya imagined the Scene of a group of people entering together, and immediately had black lines all over his Face.
Then tomorrow's Report would probably be:
K3 Hotel opening Cocktail Party, THK Entertainment Company President leads people to smash the Place...
Is there an irreconcilable Conflict between Entertainment Company and athletes...
Sob sob sob~ Thank you for your support~ There are already three Patrons, and one Silver Patron... I am a bit socially inept, sweat, not very good at Social Interaction, don't really like chatting with people (want to be useless), can only thank you again...
[Dog Head]
[Love]
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 442: You Finally Couldn't Help But Attack Teacher Mouri?
Party Venue.
As more and more people arrived, the Venue gradually became lively.
"Wow, there are so many celebrities!" Mori Kogoro excitedly scanned the Crowd, "Kuraki Mai... Komatsu Miho... TWO-MIX!"
Beside him, Conan, wearing a black Suit, white Shirt, and a yellow bow tie, also looked around. As he looked, he suddenly thought of a possibility.
THK Company and Yoko Okino Company Honeymoon...
Yesterday, Odagiri Toshiya said he had something to do today...
Now a bunch of Entertainer from THK Company have come over, could it be...
"Also, Yoko Okino, who I support the most!!" Mori Kogoro excitedly looked at Yoko Okino, then his smile froze.
That young Man standing next to Yoko Okino, wearing a black Formal Dress, speaking with a cold face, and having Purple Eyes... isn't that his Disciple?
Mouri Ran also looked over, "Huh? Brother Hichiji is here too?"
"Is that so?" Hattori Heiji, who invited a Group of people over, looked over.
"But why is he with Miss Okino?" Mori Kogoro glanced unhappily at the two people over there, "And Miss Okino is talking to him with a smile! He's still looking cold and indifferent..."
"N-No, not really." Mouri Ran sweatdropped.
Brother Hichiji was clearly interacting too.
Conan looked calm. He had already expected to meet Chi Feichei here, "Because it's the Honeymoon Period."
If you look closely, the people from THK Company and Yoko Okino Company are basically all interacting, as close as Family, and you can't tell at all that the two Companies were secretly stabbing each other in the back before.
Guess the Presidents of the two Companies must have already talked after arriving at the Venue.
Crack...
Mori Kogoro petrified, "Honeymoon..."
"Honeymoon, Honeymoon?!"
Mouri Ran and Kazuha Toyama also exclaimed in surprise.
Even Hattori Heiji looked at Conan in horror, "No way? They're already married? That shouldn't be, I haven't heard any News at all, even if they don't Publicly announce it, they should tell me! No, no, this is too sudden..."
"No, it's not like that..." Conan sweatdropped, and quickly explained Chi Feichei's Statement, and also talked about the Situation of the two Companies.
Hattori Heiji breathed a sigh of relief, "You scared me..."
On the side, Mori Kogoro was still petrified, muttering in a low voice, "Marriage... too sudden... really too sudden..."
"Uh, Uncle..." Kazuha Toyama raised her hand and waved it in front of Mori Kogoro's eyes, and found that Mori Kogoro had no Reaction, looking at Mouri Ran, "He doesn't seem to be listening at all, Ran, is your Old Dad okay?"
"This..." Mouri Ran was also a little unsure.
She was worried that her Father might be so shocked that he would get Dementia early...
"Uncle, this Kid is joking!" Hattori Heiji roared into Mori Kogoro's ear.
Mori Kogoro was still dull-witted, "Marriage... Honeymoon... really too sudden..."
Hattori Heiji's mouth twitched slightly, and he squatted down and leaned close to Conan's ear to tease, "Hey, Kudo, what you said about the Honeymoon just now was Intentionally, right? You finally couldn't help but attack Uncle? Made Uncle dumbfounded, so it's convenient for you to abduct someone's Daughter?"
Conan glanced at Hattori Heiji, was he that black-hearted?
Don't randomly pin the Scapegoat on his head!
On the side, Mouri Ran decided to let her Old Dad calm down first.
Kazuha Toyama also leaned close to Mouri Ran's Ear and whispered, "Recently, Heiji has been really Weird, Calling other people, saying things like 'Are you alone now?', 'Has it been exposed?', 'If it's inconvenient, Whether or Not I should Call back later' and so on..."
"Ah?" Mouri Ran was startled, "Could it be..."
"He must have been abducted by some Fox Spirit," Kazuha Toyama looked aggrieved and indignant, turning her head left and right to look, "Maybe he even invited that Fox Spirit to the Venue!"
Conan: "..."
Sorry, he might be that Fox Spirit.
Second Responsibility tonight, feeling a dark patch over his head...
"Well then..." In front, the emcee hosting the Reception spoke into the microphone, "Let me introduce the protagonists of tonight's Reception, who are the three Bosses of this K3 Hotel."
Everyone stopped chatting and turned their Heads to look.
"First, is the former world Heavyweight Champion with no defeats, Mr. Rica Barre!"
As the emcee introduced him, amidst the Applause, a Man with dark Skin and a round, sturdy build walked out.
"Next, is the Newcomer Award Pitcher with a Ball Speed of 160 kilometers, Mr. Mike Norder!"
The Man who walked out afterwards had a Moustache, was tall and thin, and waved to the people applauding.
Conan stared intently at the Aisle, his heart filled with anticipation.
His idol... his idol...
"Then, is the famous Goalkeeper known as the 'Iron Wall of Europe'... Mr. Ray Curtis!"
The last Man to walk out had Blonde Hair and blue eyes, was tall, and also waved to the Crowd.
Seeing his idol come out, Conan immediately looked excited.
Awesome!
The real person, alive and kicking!
Not far away, Chi Feichei turned his Head to look at Conan, and seeing the Famous Detective looking excited, he sighed inwardly.
This Reception will definitely be a Disaster for the Famous Detective, and he's about to send his idol, whom he rarely gets to see, to Prison...
Odagiri Toshiya didn't know when he wandered over to Chi Feichei's side, "If I had known earlier, we would have snatched the name K3..."
Morizono Kikuto leaned closer, smiling and whispering, "Didn't they say, it's not the meaning of three Kings, and if the Company takes this Name, it would be bad if people misunderstood."
"But originally they also proposed to interact with THK tonight," Odagiri Toshiya said, "After all, the three of us are also jointly running a Company, but, I think Hassashi definitely wouldn't want to run up and be filmed by the Camera, so he refused..."
At the edge of the Stage, a burst of noise suddenly came.
"Hurry up! Hurry up and translate for them! Curtis," a short and stout Man with a small Moustache on his lip said to Ray Curtis, with a playful smile on his Face, "The Scandal Case you were involved in Japan, 'dirty and despicable' is the most appropriate description, right!"
"You are really impolite! Get out!" Ray Curtis said in English with an angry Face.
"Come on, I'm a Guest who got a formal Invitation Letter, and I'm your good Friend, relying on writing your Press Release, it helped me earn a lot of Money," the Man took out the Invitation Letter and showed it, then turned around and picked up the Sushi on the Table next to him and left, "Although I Don't Know who invited me, I am very grateful to him, because I love Sushi, hahaha..."
"That Fellow seems to be..." Odagiri Toshiya turned his Head.
"That American newspaper Reporter who is famous for writing Scandal about Athletes, seems to be called Ed Mckay," Morizono Kikuto said in a low voice, "Specially digging up Scandals of famous Athletes to increase sales, for example, Curtis is suspected of using Contraband, Barre is suspected of match-fixing, Mike's Extramarital Affair and divorce, but these three people won lawsuits against him, proving that he is fabricating Scandals, but because his writing style is very clever, even if he is sued, he gets away completely."
"Good homework." Chi Feichei said.
He had also checked some Data before coming, if he didn't have Knowledge, he had to do his homework.
"Of course," Morizono Kikuto smiled, "Since we're here to attend the Cocktail Party, we should at least understand the three protagonists in advance, right? The Scandals of the three of them were all reported by that Reporter, and the lawsuit incident some time ago was still a big fuss, it's hard not to pay Attention."
Odagiri Toshiya teased in a low voice, "This kind of Reporter is also what we hate the most, lucky that he's targeting the Athlete circle."
Over there, the emcee, in order to ease the Atmosphere, entered the question-and-answer session in advance.
Mouri Ran ran up, didn't ask a question, but asked Ray Curtis for a Signature, specifically specifying to write 'To Shinichi'.
"Miss Mouri?"
"So... oh, Mr. Mouri is here too."
Morizono Kikuto and Odagiri Toshiya had also seen Mouri Ran and Mori Kogoro, after all, they had all been involved in Cases before...
"I'll go say hello."
Chi Feichei said a Sentence, and then said to Yoko Okino, who was standing far away on the side and not involved in the whispers, "Miss Okino, excuse me, I'll go say hello to Teacher."
"Ah, okay!" Yoko Okino said with a smile, "Please, and also, please tell Mr. Mouri, I'll go over to say hello later."
Chi Feichei nodded and Turned Around to Mori Kogoro's side.
Hattori Heiji was still pulling Mori Kogoro and talking, "Uncle, your Daughter is asking a bastard Kid for a Signature, if you don't care, she'll be abducted!"
Mori Kogoro was still dull-witted in place, "Bastard Kid, Marriage, Honeymoon..."
Chi Feichei walked closer and saw this scene, was Silent for a moment, squatted down, and poked Conan's Head.
"Huh?" Conan was originally moved watching Mouri Ran getting a Signature for him, suddenly being poked on the Head, he blankly Turned Head to look at Chi Feichei.
"Is it that the Doctorate didn't control the Dosage of the Anesthetic Needle well," Chi Feichei's Tone was calm, with a hint of complexity, "or did you finally couldn't help but attack Teacher Mouri?"
It's no wonder he thought so, Mori Kogoro looked very much like Dementia, he suspected whether his Transmigration had caused some trouble, causing the Doctor's Tranquilizer Needle to have a Problem, making Conan Tranquilize Mori Kogoro into a fool...
Conan was stunned for a moment, Turned Head to look at Mori Kogoro, and Realize what Chi Feichei meant, he got a little agitated, "What kind of people do you all take me for?"
Third Scapegoat tonight!
"Then..." Chi Feichei just wanted to ask what was wrong with Mori Kogoro, when Mouri Ran walked over holding a Signed Jersey.
"Brother Hichiji?" Mouri Ran was a little embarrassed, "I forgot to ask you before... Hattori and the others said they didn't have any particularly favorite Athletes, what about you? Whether or Not..."
"No Need, Thank You, I don't chase Stars," Chi Feichei said, "Sports Stars are the same."
Conan couldn't help but popularize, "But Curtis is very powerful, he was originally a midfielder, when their two Goalkeepers were off the field due to Injury and red cards, he took over the position of Goalkeeper, and finally turned the tide, allowing their team to get the runner-up, and later in the Football League he was also a Goalkeeper, known as the Iron Wall of Europe!"
How could his Little Friend be indifferent to Curtis? He definitely doesn't Know how powerful Curtis is!
Chi Feichei still looked indifferent.
He is very powerful, but what does it have to do with him.
He didn't intend to stop this Case either, he wasn't familiar with either side, and Ray Curtis was initially quibbling when facing Conan, if he rashly ran over to say something, being accused of slander would be light, and being regarded as a thorn in the side by the Criminal would not be good.
This Incident, the only impact is that Conan will be very heartbroken, but the blow is also a catalyst for Growth.
The current Conan is much more likeable than the previous Kudo Shinichi who loved to be in the Limelight, and his heart is also much more delicate.
"Pfft!" Mouri Ran was amused by Conan's serious look, bent down and handed a VIP Ticket to Conan, "Here, Conan, this is a VIP Ticket for Curtis's Competition at Nagai Stadium tomorrow, he just stuffed it to me, Whether or Not you want to go?"
"I want to go!" Conan was immediately attracted by Attention, and happily responded, "I want to go!"
"He's quite generous!" Hattori Heiji sighed with emotion.
"Yeah, but he wants me to do a favor..." Mouri Ran raised the Intercom in her hand.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 443 I'll Go Get Someone to Help You
The three Bosses of K3 Hotel planned to switch the Room Lights in the hotel rooms on and off, making the Window Light up in the shape of a 'K' letter, to give the Guests who were about to leave a surprise.
Ray Curtis asked Mouri Ran to watch from outside and use the Intercom to direct them on which Room Light to switch on and off.
Conan, Hattori Heiji, and Kazuha Toyama decided to go together.
Chi Feichei also intended to go out for some fresh air. He found Mori Kogoro still petrified in place, not responding to anyone who called him. Before leaving, he still said, "Teacher, Yoko Okino will come over to greet you later."
Well, hearing that Yoko Okino would come over, his Teacher should be able to replenish some Health Bar.
Mori Kogoro heard this sentence and imagined in his mind a scene where the groom in a pair of newlyweds came over and said: Teacher, she will come over to greet you later.
Crack...
The petrified heart cracked with fissures.
The Health Bar was completely emptied!
Chi Feichei followed the group outside, put on his Sunglasses, didn't get involved in the directing, and went to the side to light a Cigarette.
He really did come out for some fresh air...
Mouri Ran directed for a while. When the 'K' letter lighting was completed, a Gunshot suddenly came from the Hotel, and the Window Glass of the central Room on the Second Floor also shattered.
From the leftmost Room on the Fifth Floor, Rica Barella opened the Window, poked his head out to look, and asked on the Intercom, "What happened?"
Almost at the same time, Mike Norder in the central Room on the Third Floor and Ray Curtis in the rightmost Room on the First Floor also poked their heads out of the Window.
"What happened?"
"Was that just a Gunshot?"
That Reporter is dead.
The Hotel was in chaos. Some people were running out in fear of the Gunshot, while Reporters were frantically rushing in.
Chi Feichei followed them to the Second Floor to look at the Scene. After the Police arrived, he returned to the Banquet Hall.
A Case he originally remembered many Details of became boring again after seeing the Scene.
Because he was outside the Hotel before, and many people around saw his every move, it was impossible for him to Murder, so there was no need to do a Gunpowder Residue Test.
In the Banquet Hall, Mori Kogoro stood in place, letting a Police Officer do a Gunpowder Residue Test. In the panicked Crowd, he remained Expressionless and stood tall and straight... like a statue.
"Mr. Mouri!" Yoko Okino stepped forward to greet him after the Police Officer left. Seeing Chi Feichei return, she also nodded to Chi Feichei.
"Hmm..." Mori Kogoro smiled weakly at Yoko Okino, "Cong... Congratulations."
"Ah? Thank you." Yoko Okino responded, thinking in confusion, was it congratulations on her New Song release? Or did she get another TV Program invitation? Or congratulations that the Relationship between the two Companies had finally eased, and she didn't have to be under so much Pressure?
As the Company's face, she had been pushed to the forefront to withstand the Knife and Arrow from THK Company during this period. When the Bosses on both sides fought, she had to charge in the front row, which was really too difficult.
Fortunately, it was finally over, and it was worth congratulating.
Mori Kogoro was silent for a moment after hearing Yoko Okino's response, then turned and walked towards the Door, "Hassashi, tell them, I'm going back first..."
"Sorry, my Teacher is not feeling well today," Chi Feichei said to Yoko Okino, then turned and said, "I'll send you off."
Looking at Mori Kogoro's appearance, who could be at ease?
What if he got hit by a Car halfway...
"No Need... you Keep Company with Miss Yoko." Mori Kogoro lowered his head in disappointment and continued to walk out like a zombie.
Chi Feichei followed, told the Police at the Entrance, showed Mori Kogoro's Identity as a Famous Detective, and said that he knew Officer Otaki who was in charge of the Investigation. Only then was he allowed to leave the Crime Scene by the Police who were sealing off the Scene. He called a Car and sent Mori Kogoro Home.
Mori Kogoro was absent-minded and muddle-headed throughout the whole journey. It wasn't until he entered the Hotel Room that he said in a deep voice, "I'm fine... As a Teacher, I haven't congratulated you yet, I'm really sorry, I wish you a happy Honeymoon..."
"What?"
Chi Feichei didn't even Realize it, seriously suspecting that Mori Kogoro was Mentally deranged, and seriously reminded him, "Teacher, I'm unmarried."
"Huh?" Mori Kogoro immediately perked up, "Didn't that kid Conan say you and Miss Yoko were on your Honeymoon?"
Chi Feichei Understood and explained, "It was said that the Relationship between our two Companies has eased, and it will be as good as a Honeymoon."
"In other words," Mori Kogoro leaned closer to Chi Feichei and asked expectantly, "You and Miss Yoko are not married?"
"No." Chi Feichei said.
Conan actually spread rumors about him!
"Hahaha... It's good that you're not married," Mori Kogoro immediately grinned and scratched his head, "Oh... By the Way, did something happen just now?"
"No."
Chi Feichei Turn Around and Go Out, "You should rest."
'Bang', the Room Door was closed.
Mori Kogoro didn't care, and stood in place laughing loudly, "Not married, that's great! Hahaha! That's great!..."
Outside the Door, in the Corridor.
Chi Feichei walked quickly towards the Elevator while taking out his Mobile Phone to make a Phone Call. After it was connected, he said to the other side in a calm Tone, "Hello, is this Seno General Hospital, Psychiatry Department? My Teacher's Mental State is not right. He stood blankly for almost an Hour before, and couldn't hear anything anyone said. Afterwards, he laughed wildly... The Location is Hirano Hotel, Room 901... We are at K3 Hotel attending a Cocktail Party, and someone was Murdered there. My Daughter and I have to Cooperate with the Police Investigation and can't leave..."
Ding.
The Elevator arrived at the Second Floor.
Chi Feichei walked into the Elevator, "Please come and pick him up."
"Beep."
The Phone Call ended.
Hissashi poked its Head out, a little dumbfounded, "Master..."
"What's wrong?" Chi Feichei asked calmly.
As a middle-aged Uncle with Children, he actually chased after a star to this point...
He suspected that his Teacher had some kind of star-chasing Syndrome and needed a Psychologist to guide and treat him.
"N-Nothing..." Hissashi weakly retracted its Head.
Master pits his own Teacher without any mercy...
...
K3 Hotel.
As soon as Chi Feichei returned to the Hotel, he saw Hattori Heiji standing blankly in the Corridor, with a complicated Expression.
This...
Another one gone silly?
It wasn't until he heard Footsteps approaching that Hattori Heiji raised his eyes to Look, and was stunned for a moment before barely recovering, "Brother Hassashi? Where did you go just now?"
"Sent Teacher Mouri back to rest." Chi Feichei said.
Hattori Heiji nodded. He originally wanted to tell Chi Feichei that Mori Kogoro had misunderstood something, but considering that Mori Kogoro might not be able to listen to explanations now, and that a certain Detective's State was also very wrong, he didn't think about Mori Kogoro's Matter anymore, "Brother Hassashi, Conan's State is a bit wrong, he..."
Chi Feichei waited for a long time, seeing Hattori Heiji looking tangled but not saying the Following Text, he simply said bluntly, "He likes Ray Curtis very much."
So, Abnormality is also normal...
Hattori Heiji nodded, then Realized something was wrong again, and took two steps back in horror, "You... you... how did you know?"
Chi Feichei coldly looked at Hattori Heiji's exaggerated Reaction, "The Victim's right Hand was grabbing his Belt. When Officer Otaki came over and saw the Victim's right Hand, didn't he Say it? Belt, there is also a Statement called Band. The Victim said before that he liked to eat Sushi very much, and the action of his left Hand was also the action of grabbing Sushi. In a Sushi Restaurant, Band represents the 8th Dish, which refers to Ray Curtis whose Jersey Number is 8."
Hattori Heiji was depressed, turned around and walked two circles in place, then turned to Look at Chi Feichei, his Gaze serious and focused, "What about the Crime Method? Do you know how he turned on the Room Light in the rightmost Room on the First Floor and Murdered that Reporter Mr. on the Second Floor?"
"Don't Know, I didn't go to the Room to See." Chi Feichei said.
Hattori Heiji breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, ha, I know this."
Chi Feichei looked at Hattori Heiji, then... and then what?
"Cough, do you want me to take you to the Scene to demonstrate the Method?" Hattori Heiji also Realize that he was childish just now, and forcibly tried to save face.
"No Need..." Chi Feichei paused when he saw Conan swaying down the Staircase like a Ghost.
Hattori Heiji also Turn Around to Look, was silent for a moment, and seriously opened his mouth, "Co... Co... Con..."
Conan raised his eyes and glanced at Hattori Heiji speechlessly, still with an Expression of 'Babies are unhappy'.
"Achoo!" Hattori Heiji deliberately pretended to have a stuffy nose and sneezed, then laughed dryly and walked forward, "Conan, Brother Hassashi just Said..."
"I heard it," Conan said Expressionless, softly, "Can I Request you to not say it for the time being?"
"You..." Hattori Heiji frowned.
Conan suddenly remembered the Case at the Shinde Residence. He seemed to have almost felt that Chi Feichei didn't Solve a Case because he wanted to protect the Criminal. Suddenly, he Understood a little.
Alas, no wonder Chi Feichei didn't Say anything at the time. He is also Expectation that Ray can Surrender himself...
"Don't worry, I just want to talk to Ray alone, and wait for him in the Room where he was responsible for turning on the Light before."
"Okay," Hattori Heiji nodded seriously, "I'll go get someone to help you!"
"I won't tell anyone either, but... Conan, a Drug Addict is a Human whose will has been worn away. You can't believe a Sentence of what they Say." Chi Feichei seriously finished speaking to Conan, then Turn Around and followed Hattori Heiji.
He also went to get someone to help Conan, but he went Outside the Door to make a Phone Call.
"Hello... Yes, it's me again. Have you found my Teacher yet? Yes, his State is not quite right... No, it's not about my Teacher's Matter, there's a Child here whose Mental State is also not very good... K3 Hotel... Because of the Murder Case? Sort of... Yes, please come and pick him up."
After Chi Feichei hung up the Phone Call, Hissashi hesitated for a moment, "Master, isn't it a bit unfriendly to Ran to do this? She will have to take care of Uncle and Conan later..."
"Sending them to one Place, she can take care of both of them at the same time, and there will be a Psychologist to enlighten Conan later, maybe it will be better." Chi Feichei gave a Reason.
Hissashi: "..."
Makes sense.
However, it still feels weird...
...
In the Lobby, some Guests were already clamoring to go Home.
When Chi Feichei returned to the Lobby, Ray Curtis was already gone. Hattori Heiji was talking to Officer Otaki in a low voice.
"Mr. Chi?" Kuraki Mai walked forward from the Crowd, looked at the Police over there, and retracted her Gaze, "How is the Case going?"
"It will be Solved soon." Chi Feichei said.
"You really do bring trouble wherever you go." Morizono Kikuto couldn't help but Sigh and Say.
"Especially in Places with annoying Fellows," Chi Feichei said Expressionless, "The annoying Fellow is prone to being Victim."
Morizono Kikuto, who was almost a Corpse once: "..."
Why did he have to be so thick-skinned and come up to tease Chi Feichei?
Kuraki Mai was not clear about the Incident at the Senyuan Family before. Seeing Morizono Kikuto frozen in place, she was puzzled, but didn't ask any more questions.
"Okay," over there, Officer Otaki shouted, "Please leave your Contact Information, and go back to rest first. If necessary, we will contact you. We hope you can Cooperate with the Police Investigation at that time!"
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 444 This Is Ko... Ko... Kudo?
"It's really over," Morizono Kikuto looked at Officer Otaki. Among them, only Chi Feichei could run around the Crime Scene and the Hotel, and the Police acted as if they didn't see it. "Hassashi, the Culprit is..."
"I promised someone to keep it confidential for now. You guys go back to the Hotel to rest first, and I'll be back in a bit," Chi Feichei said, and walked towards Hattori Heiji who was approaching.
Running around tonight, taking care of this side and then that side, it's a bit busy.
"Brother Chi," Hattori Heiji said, approaching and leaning close to Chi Feichei's ear, "Let's go check on Conan, I'm a little worried."
"Okay," Chi Feichei nodded and walked towards the Stairs.
In the Stairwell, Conan's bitter laughter echoed twice, "Haha... This is too ridiculous. I wanted to prove your innocence, but the more I tried to prove it, the more Evidence pointing to you as the Culprit kept appearing..."
"Oh, what a pity, little brother," Ray Curtis's voice followed, "What you just said is not enough to convict me... The Clothes I'm wearing were brought by my agent as spare Clothes, because I sweat a lot, so I've already changed. Now that set of dirty Clothes has been taken away by my agent, and it's probably already at the Hotel's Laundry Center..."
In the Stairwell on the next Floor, Hattori Heiji stopped, frowned, and stood against the Wall.
Chi Feichei didn't go up further either, and eavesdropped at the Wall Corner with Hattori Heiji.
"What about the Shoe?" Conan listened to Ray Curtis's unscrupulous sophistry, feeling a little disappointed, and directly pointed out the Ironclad Proof, "If it's an Automatic Pistol, when the Magazine flies out, Gunsmoke will also scatter with it, but if it's a Revolver, the Gunsmoke will be centered on the gun body and scatter radially, so the Shoe will also be stained! Ray... You should have been wearing Shoes when you committed the crime, right? Because you have to kick the Ball very accurately. Since you haven't changed your Shoes yet, it should still be detectable now, right? This is the decisive Evidence!"
Ray Curtis's expression changed slightly.
Conan turned his back to Ray Curtis, lowered his head, and said softly, "You should Surrender quickly! You go to the Police to Surrender, Ray... Even if I beg you..."
"I'm sorry, I can't Surrender," Ray Curtis said with a helpless expression, "If I'm arrested, my fans and Family will be very, very sad... I will follow your advice and wipe these Shoes clean. I will find a Statement to deceive the Police."
Saying that, he was about to Turn Around and leave.
"Wait a minute! The things you need to confess are not just this one, right?" Conan was completely disappointed. He had to admit that Chi Feichei was right. Ray Curtis was no longer the Soccer Ball hero in his mind, but just a person whose will had been worn down and was still trying to find Reasons to escape punishment at this time. Then, the sadness in his heart turned into anger. He turned around and kicked the Soccer Ball in his hand out, sternly saying, "The Iron Wall of Europe... Ray Curtis!"
Ray Curtis didn't catch the Soccer Ball that he should have been able to catch, and was knocked to the ground. Under Conan's questioning, he admitted that he was addicted to Poison and his Murder Motive.
The previous fabricated Report caused his Wife to suffer a great blow and commit Suicide due to Neurasthenia. In order to lure that Reporter, he simply followed what was said in the Report and took Contraband, luring the person to Japan and plotting to Murder him...
Ray Curtis couldn't get rid of the Injury brought by his Wife's death, and continued to be addicted to Poison.
"Stop talking, Ray..."
Conan's Expression was heavy and sad. He said in English, "Even if life is hard and difficult, it shouldn't be your Excuse for drug use and Murder. Losers should be willing to accept the Red Card..."
Ray Curtis was moved, got up and left, and took the initiative to Surrender to the Osaka Police Station.
Hattori Heiji watched Ray Curtis leave, then looked up at the Hallway above where there was no sound. Feeling worried, he was just about to ask Chi Feichei if he wanted to comfort Conan, when he turned his Head and found that Chi Feichei was walking out of the Hallway.
This...
What's the Situation?
What's wrong with Brother Chi again?
Should he comfort Conan now? Or should he follow Brother Chi to see what's going on?
He's just one person, and can't split himself in half.
Where should he go now? Waiting Online, it's quite urgent.
"Where's the person?"
A Sound suddenly came from the Corridor Entrance.
Huh?
Hattori Heiji raised his Head in confusion, and saw Chi Feichei walking over with a Middle-aged Man.
Conan was walking down the Stairs in frustration when he suddenly felt a meaningful Gaze. A Figure suddenly appeared in his mind, and he quickly raised his eyes to Look. Soon, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Thank goodness, thank goodness, it's not Zhi Ming Fukuyama, the Great Demon King.
But why is this Gaze so familiar?
"Has this Child suffered some kind of blow?" The Middle-aged Man withdrew his Line of Sight of Observation and spoke to Chi Feichei in a low voice, "I'll try to chat with him first..."
Conan: "..."
Wait, this Routine of chatting is also a bit familiar...
"Let go of me!" Mori Kogoro's exasperated voice came from Outside the Door, "I don't want to go to the Psychiatry Department! I'm fine! Hassashi, you bastard kid, get out here!"
"Sir, please calm down..."
Hattori Heiji raised his Head blankly, looking at Mori Kogoro, who was being tightly held by two Men at the Entrance, his dark face even more bewildered, "Brother Chi, what is this..."
"Help them find a Psychologist to enlighten them about the knots in their hearts. It might be better for them," Chi Feichei said with a natural and calm Expression.
The Middle-aged Man nodded, "Mr. Chi's awareness and concepts are very correct. Sometimes, if your Emotion or State is not right, you must seek a Doctor in time. Don't be resistant, don't feel ashamed..."
(;Д)!
Conan was Be Confused for a moment, and really wanted to ask this Man, do you know that the person next to you just came out of the best Mental Hospital in Tokyo, without a Proof of Cure, confronted the Doctor in the Hospital, and the Doctor had no choice but to let him out because he was afraid he would be more depressed, and he still doesn't Take Medicine according to the Doctor's orders!
This is called awareness and correct concepts?
Definitely teasing him!
The most abnormal person here is Chi Feichei, okay!
However, seeing that Middle-aged Man turn his Head and smile at him as kindly and gently as Zhi Ming Fukuyama, Conan still felt a tremor in his heart, ran to Chi Feichei, hugged his leg with a bang, and looked up at Chi Feichei with a pitiful look, acting cute in a childish voice, "I don't want to go to any Hospital! Brother Chi just left me and walked away, and I couldn't find him anywhere. Now you want to send me to the Hospital again, I don't want to!"
"Pfft!" Hattori Heiji next to him couldn't help but burst out laughing.
This is Ko... Ko... Kudo?!
The Middle-aged Man was a little puzzled and looked at Chi Feichei, "This Child was in a bad Mood before, because..."
"I sent my Teacher back before, and I didn't know he was looking for me," Chi Feichei said calmly, reaching out and rubbing Conan's Hair. He continued to say to the Middle-aged Man, "Now it seems, he should be having an Emotion tantrum with me. Sorry, for the Troublesome."
"Not at all, you really care about this Child," the Middle-aged Man said with a smile, "Some Guardians are like this. When their Children have Abnormality, it's like encountering a flood or a wild beast, worrying about this and that. This is not wrong, but you don't need to be too nervous. You should tell the Child when you leave in the future. Children are sometimes very sensitive and especially afraid of being abandoned..."
After a lot of blah blah blah, seeing Chi Feichei nodding in response from time to time, the Middle-aged Man felt a little gratified. What a good Young Man, "Then I'll go check on your Teacher's side..."
Chi Feichei: "Take care."
Handle Psychologist, he is professional!
After the Man left, Conan immediately let go of his hand, his Face turned cold, and he stood aside to continue returning to his sad and melancholy thoughts.
He doesn't want to chat and talk with anyone. He just wants to be quietly melancholy for a while, is that okay?
Handle Psychologist, he is tentatively moving forward on the road to professionalism...
On the side, Hattori Heiji watched the whole process, opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say a word.
Kudo's Face-changing speed is too scary.
He actually acted so exaggeratedly.
Are you sure you really don't need to see a Doctor?
Suddenly, he realized that the people around him are very strange. He seems to have never seen the World clearly...
Bewildered, at a loss.
...
The next Day.
Hattori House.
Conan sat on the Wooden Stairs in the Backyard Corridor, propping his chin with one hand, staring blankly at the ground in a daze.
In the Courtyard, Chi Feichei took the Raw Meat Slice handed over by Hattori Shizuka and put it on the grill.
Inside the Room, Kazuha Toyama and Mouri Ran quietly poked their Heads out, looking at Conan's Figure.
"Did this Child really say he's not going to watch the game at Nagai Stadium?" Kazuha Toyama asked in a low voice.
"Mm..." Mouri Ran's eyes were full of worry.
"But wasn't he still looking forward to it before?" Kazuha Toyama said, "Could it be because Curtis isn't playing?"
"But, besides Curtis, there are many world-renowned Football Players in that Competition," Mori Kogoro said, stroking his chin, "Why don't we have Hassashi call a Doctor over?"
Last night he was very resistant to going to the Psychiatry Department, but after going there, two Doctors kept him company and chatted with him, talking about the Life of Middle-aged Men, talking about trivial Conflicts and small happiness at Home, talking about Liquor and current affairs. After hearing that he was Mori Kogoro, they were even more enthusiastic...
They even went for a few drinks together last night.
Everyone there is a Talent, and they speak so nicely, especially stress-relieving!
"It's still better not to, Conan doesn't seem to like that kind of Place," Mouri Ran said hesitantly, "I'm worried that if Conan becomes like Shinichi, it will be terrible..."
In front of the grill, Chi Feichei sprinkled Seasoning on the half-cooked Meat Slice, and Fragrance filled the air.
Hattori Heiji, who wanted to step forward to persuade Conan, stopped and glanced sideways.
Conan, who was sitting in self-isolation, twitched his nose, glanced sideways at Chi Feichei, and then turned his Head away again.
"Shinichi, he..." Mouri Ran paused. The smell of barbecue is so good, it's a bit distracting. "He... When his favorite Things have flaws, he will be like a Child..."
Chi Feichei flipped the Barbecue and sprinkled a little Spices on it.
"Start to completely hate and abandon that..." Mouri Ran said haltingly, "That thing..."
"Is... Is that so..." Kazuha Toyama stared at the Grill over there.
"Shou... Should be..." Mori Kogoro also stared at the Grill, completely unaware of what he was talking about.
Mouri Ran suddenly shook her Head. No, Conan is still sad. How could she still be thinking about eating Barbecue? "Anyway... Huh?"
Conan, who was sitting on the Step, silently Get Up, walked to the Grill, looked up, Expressionless, Half-Moon Eyes staring at Chi Feichei.
Is he doing it on purpose!
Otherwise, Chi Feichei could just grill in the Kitchen, why in the Courtyard?
He's actually using Delicious Food to Temptation him, it's simply hateful.
The most hateful thing is that he actually couldn't help but compromise.
Because it looks like it's really Delicious Food...
Chi Feichei flipped the Barbecue again, sprinkled Spices on the other side, and broke the silence first, "Have you heard of 'Evening Glow'?"
Conan listened to that familiar voice with a calm and unwavering tone. For some reason, the depression in his heart eased a little, and he said in a muffled voice, "Of course I've heard it. I'm listening to Miss Cang Mu's New Song."
Hattori Heiji also stepped forward, smiling and helping to ease the Atmosphere, "I'm listening too, after all, it's a Song written by Brother Chi..."
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 445 Haibara Ai: It's Work Again, Right?
"Do you remember the lyrics?" Chi Feichei asked again.
Conan recalled them for a moment. He wasn't very enthusiastic about listening to songs, and he had only caught a few lines, not really memorizing the whole thing.
Moreover, he felt that the song was a bit too pessimistic. For example, lyrics like 'Alone, who can I confide in?' made him feel uncomfortable and he hadn't listened to it as many times as Kuraki Mai's other songs.
Chi Feichei hadn't expected the two of them to answer anyway, and continued speaking.
"Wishes fulfilled, only then is pain known."
"Heart-wrenching pain, only then is pain known."
"Through trials of pain, only then is reunion known."
"Through trials of reunion, only then are wishes known."
Conan froze on the spot, silently interpreting the lyrics in his heart, feeling that they were enough to savor for a long time.
Hattori Heiji also fell silent, lowering his head in thought.
"Conan..."
Chi Feichei looked directly at Conan and said in English, "Even if life is hard and difficult..."
Conan tilted his head in confusion, also looking directly at Chi Feichei.
This was the beginning of what he had said to Lei last night...
"Don't be sad, don't despair," Chi Feichei continued in English, "More hardships await you in the future."
Conan: "..."
Hattori Heiji: "..."
This was not the comfort they had imagined!
"Alright..." Chi Feichei put the grilled meat into a plate and was about to hand it to Conan when a hand reached out and took it.
"Oh? Is it grilled already?" Mori Kogoro took the plate of grilled meat, lowered his head to smell it, and then looked up, beaming, "Oh my, it really smells good! Hissashi, thank you for your hard work!"
Conan, who was just about to reach out to take the plate: "..."
Suddenly feeling a faint sadness...
That was the grilled meat Chi Feichei intended for him...
These people...
Could they please be considerate of someone in a bad mood?!
...
Afternoon.
Chi Feichei gathered with the Company people and took a plane back to Tokyo.
In addition to the THK Company people, there were also people from Okino Yoko Agency. The two Companies chartered a plane together and returned to Tokyo in a lively manner, really as close as lovers in their honeymoon period.
Mori Kogoro originally wanted to hitch a ride on the plane, but Conan and Mouri Ran dragged him onto the Shinkansen to return.
Two days later, Chi Feichei received a phone call from Mouri Ran.
"Did you encounter a Case again on your way back?"
"Yeah, we happened to run into Officer Sato and Police Officer Takagi, who were escorting a Criminal back to Tokyo, and something happened," Mouri Ran laughed awkwardly, then lowered her voice, "Um... Brother Hichiji..."
"Yeah." Chi Feichei responded.
"I want to ask you a question," Mouri Ran said in a low voice, "If a Girl asked you if you had a Good Impression of me, what would you... think?"
"Wouldn't think much," Chi Feichei said, "Answer her truthfully."
"Is... is that so..." Mouri Ran paused, "Then... what if it was a Boy a little younger than you? Um... like a High School Student..."
"Without knowing their Personality, I can't make a Judgment either," Chi Feichei said.
"O-Okay..." Mouri Ran didn't ask further, "By the Way, Brother Hichiji, my Father received a Commission to go to Gunma, and I plan to take Conan there for Forest Bathing. Would you like to take Ai to take a look?"
"I'll ask her," Chi Feichei said.
"Okay, next Saturday," Mouri Ran said, "Just give me an answer before then..."
"Ran..."
"Huh?"
"Can you just say how many days there are?"
"Sorry, sorry, um... next Saturday... there are still three days."
Hanging up the phone, Mouri Ran hesitated for a moment. Although she said that, she was still too embarrassed to directly ask that Reasoning madman.
Conan, who was beside her, blushed crimson, having accidentally overheard everything...
...
North Lake Town, Chi Feichei called Haibara Ai again.
"Ai, do you want to go Forest Bathing next Saturday? Teacher Mouri received a Commission to go to Gunma."
"So, Edogawa and Sister Ran will also be going together, right?"
"Yeah."
"Next Saturday? I have time that day. I'll tell Doctor. Is there anything we need to prepare? Like Bento, Snacks, Change of Clothes, etc..."
"No need, I'll bring you a Skirt that's very Suitable for Forest Bathing next Saturday."
"Suitable for Forest Bathing? What kind of Skirt is it?"
"You'll know when the time comes."
"Have you had Dinner yet? Doctor and I cooked Beef Curry, do you want to Come Over and eat together?"
"I have a date with a Beautiful Woman."
"Huh? It's Work again, right? Okay, I understand, then we'll go eat first, call us again when you're free."
Chi Feichei looked at the phone that had been hung up.
Why don't they believe him?
He really does have a date with a Beautiful Woman.
"Hey, Midorikawa..."
...
Ginza Building, 33rd floor, a French Restaurant.
In the Between Seats by the Window, Chi Feichei quietly watched Saki Midorikawa order dishes.
Saki Midorikawa had changed a lot. Her pink wavy Hair was still tied up high, and she wore a finely tailored Black Evening Gown Skirt. The emptiness and melancholy in her eyes had also been replaced by some Spirit.
Saki Midorikawa lowered her head to look at the Menu and reported the Dish Names to the Waiter, then looked up and smiled softly, asking Chi Feichei, "Is this okay?"
Chi Feichei Nodded, "You decide."
"Then that's all, Thank You." Saki Midorikawa handed the Menu to the Waiter. After the Waiter left, she lowered her eyes and smiled, "Do you think I've changed a lot?"
"A bit." Chi Feichei took out a Cigarette and lit it.
Saki Midorikawa also took out a lady's Cigarette, lit it, and was silent for a while before saying, "I asked you out today to Thank you for giving me a good Work and a good Salary. I wanted to Specially treat you to a Meal. Also, I wanted to tell you that I... want to move. I will continue to keep the Rental House I used to live in, and leave a Paper Strip inside. I guarded that Place for six years. If I don't find him, I will never be reconciled. But I don't want to guard it anymore. In the Future, I also want to go out and take a look, go to Hokkaido, Kyushu, and even Overseas... Of Course, I have to work hard to get more Reward from you."
"Where do you Intend to move?" Chi Feichei asked.
Whether this Transformation was a Good Deed or not, he couldn't Judge for the Present, but for Saki Midorikawa, being able to let go was also a kind of Relief.
"I'm still looking for a House," Saki Midorikawa smiled, "I'm just telling you In Advance, if I move away secretly without reporting it, you'll be unhappy, right?"
Chi Feichei was silent for a moment, taking it as a Default Assumption. Saki Midorikawa was now his Intelligence Gathering person. If she secretly moved away without saying a word, he would indeed Think too much, Especially since Saki Midorikawa's Transformation was not small, "Are you Interested in going to America?"
"Oh?" Saki Midorikawa's Expression became serious, but her voice became even lower, "Is there any new Work?"
"Gather Intelligence, the specific Location is Massachusetts, USA, Coastal Towns..." Chi Feichei's Expression was Calm, but his voice was also very soft, "No Matter what it is, as Long As you pay attention to it, you can write it down. In unfamiliar Places, you need to add the Intelligence Gathering of information such as Residence, Transportation, Diet, and chaotic Areas... In short, I want a detailed Intelligence Map, and also, Intelligence on the Arms Source."
Fulante had already sent News.
It was not clear who exactly the Military Official Wataru Ichiro was in Contact with, or where their Address was, but the Place where they often Activity could be Confirmed, which was in Massachusetts, America.
Massachusetts, bordering the Atlantic Ocean to the east, has many excellent Ports.
In China, it is called 'Massachusetts' or 'Massachusetts', and the most famous should be Harvard University and MIT located there.
Those Intelligence Searchers were hiding quite Deeply, and he really didn't have Enough Knowledge of those people, so he had to have someone he could trust go over first.
Originally Considering that Saki Midorikawa might have to guard that Rental House, waiting for that Man who might never return, he wanted to let Yingqu Yan Nan take a trip.
However, Since Saki Midorikawa wanted to go out and take a look, he would just arrange for her to go there directly. In terms of Intelligence Gathering, Yingqu Yan Nan was probably not as good as Saki Midorikawa.
In addition, Pimu would stay in New York to busy himself with Other Things and would not participate in this Action. And apart from Saki Midorikawa, there were also three Organization Outer Member who had been sent out.
Rum would gather specific Intelligence about the Military Official and get Evidence, and he would go over to be responsible for Action Matters.
"Understand," Saki Midorikawa answered after Considering for a moment, "I can go there in the Name of Tourism, but there are quite a few Places to run around... What about Time?"
"Roughly run through it once, and strive to complete it within half a month. Don't Worry if you can't complete it, try to obtain more Information, I will Contact you again," Chi Feichei said.
"Okay, I will try my best!" Saki Midorikawa Nodded seriously, "When will we leave?"
"If possible, go Tomorrow," Chi Feichei said, "Activity Funds will be transferred to you tomorrow morning. If you need Weapons such as Handgun, Contact me, and I will have someone send them to you then, but you must be Careful when handing over."
"Okay," Saki Midorikawa suddenly chuckled, "I've been practicing Handgun Shooting Recently, I can go over and Try it out."
Chi Feichei Nodded and Say Nothing More.
He had Known for a long time about Saki Midorikawa joining the Shooting Club.
He even Knew that Recently, in addition to Trying various Work and collecting Intelligence By the Way, Saki Midorikawa had been staying at the Training Ground of the Shooting Club. As a Newbie, her Score was not bad.
The Crows that were paying attention to Saki Midorikawa and Yingqu Yan Nan were still there, but they no longer squatted by the Window to eavesdrop and peek at what the two were doing, but he Knew their approximate Movement like the Palm of his Hand.
He felt that he was beyond saving...
Saki Midorikawa looked at the Man with a Cold Expression in front of her, feeling helpless in her Heart, and also felt that Chi Feichei was beyond saving.
It was supposed to be a good Candlelight Dinner, but he insisted on talking about Work with an Ice-cold Face, like a Work Machine without Emotion.
A Meal lasted for nearly two Hours, but Chi Feichei didn't talk about Work Matters, and casually chatted with Saki Midorikawa for a few Words.
After the Meal...
"Midorikawa, summarize the Recent Intelligence and send it to my Email."
"Okay." Saki Midorikawa had already given up Struggle, took out her Mobile Phone, and sent the sorted Intelligence to Chi Feichei's Email.
Chi Feichei paid the Account and, after taking the Elevator Downstairs with Saki Midorikawa, took out his Mobile Phone and roughly Looked at the Intelligence.
A certain Politician entering and leaving Improper Entertainment Venue.
A Financial Company President evading Tax.
Initially, these were just Gossip or News heard inadvertently, but for Saki Midorikawa, these Gossip needed to be Checked to verify whether they were true. If they were true, it would be best to get some Evidence.
Finally, the effective Intelligence was summarized and given to him.
Verification and finding Evidence required wasting most of the Time, and Moreover, most of the News was just Rumors, or difficult to verify. Saki Midorikawa had found two in this period of Time and obtained Evidence, which was already very good.
It could be thrown into the Organizational Database for his own use or for Others to use in the Future.
