Chapter 826 Mori, Help Me Up
An hour later, the Metropolitan Police Department.
Fire Investigation Team Leader's Office.
Officer Yumichou was slumped in his Chair, sprawled across the Desk, completely limp and unable to move.
"Honestly, why are you arguing with Hassashi?" Mori Kogoro said speechlessly, "It's just a Snake, it won't understand if you tell it about assaulting a Police Officer."
Officer Yumichou also realized he had been stupid, and said with a dark face, "Hmph, I think it's quite clever. As soon as I loosened my mouth, it also loosened its mouth. When I said 'still', it didn't intend to Attack again!"
He felt that this Snake was doing it on purpose, intentionally using biting him to force him to compromise!
Hattori Heiji gave a Half-Moon Eyes look. Why did he feel there were so many oddballs in the Police world?
For example, Police Officer Ayanokoji, who raises Squirrels and is difficult to communicate with, and for example, this Fire Police Uncle in front of him who could argue with a Snake for half a day...
Conan turned his Head to Look at Chi Feichei, "Brother Chi, how long will Officer Yumichou's State last?"
"Don't Know, depends on Physique," Chi Feichei Said.
If Officer Yumichou doesn't get an injection, there's nothing he can do, let him be paralyzed.
*Knock knock!*
The Office Door was knocked on.
"Officer Yumichou!"
Officer Yumichou, with his face pressed against the Desktop, was silent for a moment, "Mori, Help Me Up."
"Ah, Okay!" Mori Kogoro helped Officer Yumichou up, letting Officer Yumichou's overall center of gravity rest on the Chair, and then bent Officer Yumichou's Right Hand, letting his elbow rest on the Desktop and his Hand support his Head, "Is this alright?"
"Please also help me move the Documents on the Table," Officer Yumichou reminded.
Mori Kogoro Understood and moved the Documents near Officer Yumichou's elbow.
"Come in!"
When the Young Police Officer came in, he saw his Superior sitting behind the Desk, supporting his Head with one Hand and looking down at the Documents on the Table. Although he couldn't see his Superior's expression clearly, there was a kind of inexplicable seriousness that made him stand up straight involuntarily, "Officer Yumichou! Xuanda still can't explain the Process of Arson, only saying that he was Sleepwalking."
"I Know, let him Rest for a while," Officer Yumichou didn't raise his Head, nor could he raise his Head, "It's late today, take him to the Psychiatry Department of the Hospital for an assessment tomorrow."
Seeing Officer Yumichou calm and still, the Young Police Officer immediately became respectful, "Yes! Then I won't disturb you!"
After the Young Police Officer left, Mori Kogoro, who was standing Aside, sized up Officer Yumichou, and said thoughtfully, "When I'm Sleeping Kogoro and doing Reasoning, it's probably like this too."
Conan chuckled dryly. 'Sleeping Kogoro' sometimes does appear in this Posture, but at least Officer Yumichou is speaking for himself...
"Speaking of which, could that Uncle Genda really be the Culprit?" Hattori Heiji touched his chin and said doubtfully, "With his Personality, it's really hard to believe he would be an Arsonist."
Officer Yumichou maintained the Posture of supporting his Head with one Hand and looking at the Data on the Desktop, and Spoke Out, "Actually, we suspected Xuanda before, because in the first Arson Case in Rizen Town, he was standing in the Crowd watching the excitement, while watching the Fire and shedding tears, he muttered to himself 'Father, Father'..."
"Father?" Hattori Heiji frowned.
"His Father was a firefighter," Officer Yumichou explained, "When he was in Elementary School, his Father died in order to Rescue people trapped in the Fire Sea."
Hattori Heiji was Be Stunned, "Then could it be that he set Fire in order to..."
"Uh-huh, We Police also thought so, perhaps he set Fire to commemorate his Father," Officer Yumichou Said, "Looking at the Fire, he probably has an Illusion, feeling that whenever a Fire starts, his Father will rush over quickly!"
"The word 'commemorate' is Wrong," Chi Feichei couldn't help but correct, "No one would use the Things that took their Father's Life to commemorate their Father."
Hattori Heiji, Conan, and Mori Kogoro choked, feeling like Words were stuck in their throats, but they really didn't Know what to Say.
Officer Yumichou Stared at the Documents with the Text facing down on the Desktop, and sighed, "I also Don't Think he would use this Method to commemorate his Father. I met him in the Park once before. He didn't Say a Sentence for half an Hour. When I told him to Say whatever he wanted to Say next time and Got Up to leave, I saw him from a distance desperately looking for something in the Grass next to the Bench. After a while, it started to Rain lightly, and he Got Up. Looking at his relieved Face, I Understood that he was looking for the Cigarette Butt I had smoked before, which was the Reason for the Fire that killed his Father."
Hattori Heiji recalled and Said, "Speaking of which, Uncle Genda also Subconsciously helped Officer Yumichou step on the Cigarette Butt that fell on the Ground before."
"I really can't imagine him setting Fire at other Households' Homes," Officer Yumichou paused, "But, since he Said that it was Fire set while Sleepwalking, then let's wait for the results of his Inspection tomorrow before Say So."
Hattori Heiji felt uneasy in his Heart and Looked Towards Chi Feichei, "Brother Hichiji, you also Don't Think that Uncle Genda is an Arsonist, right?"
Chi Feichei 'Uh-huh'ed, "I've seen patients with Sleepwalking. When Sleepwalking, the other party's Attention is not focused, Reaction is slow, and Level of Exercise is very poor. If they Go Out of the Room to an unfamiliar Environment, there will also be a certain Danger Level, such as falling, being tripped. If it's not in the Hospital, they may also fall from a building, fall into Water, or have a Car Accident during Sleepwalking. It's Unlikely to Think about how Xuanda can Sleepwalk all the way from Beihu Town and safely reach Rizen and other Arson Locations, and still use Arson Tools to set Fire."
"For a person who is not focused, has slow Reaction, and poor Ability of Exercise at that Time, it is indeed difficult to run so far to commit Arson," Hattori Heiji frowned, "Even if he Subconsciously remembered the Terrain when he was wandering around in the Vicinity during the Day, when he Sleepwalks to commit Arson, there may be obstacles on the Road that were not there during the Day..."
"Maybe he Sleepwalks every Night," Mori Kogoro Speculation Said, "But only the previous three... no, now it's four times, only these four times were successful Arson."
"It's very simple to verify," Chi Feichei raised his Eyes, Look Towards Mori Kogoro, and said in a calm Tone, "See if there are unnatural bruises or Scratches on his body."
Mori Kogoro, Hattori Heiji, and Conan's faces suddenly changed.
"Mori, help me Go To the Interrogation Room," Officer Yumichou also immediately said seriously, "Let them Inspect Xuanda's body for this kind of Injury!"
"I'll Go right away!" Mori Kogoro nodded seriously, and hurriedly Turn Around and Go Out the Door.
Half an Hour later, Mori Kogoro brought back the results -
None!
There was not a single bruise or Wound on Xuanda Ryutoku's body.
A smile appeared on the corner of Hattori Heiji's mouth, "Then that's Weird. Sleepwalking such a long distance, his Clothes are stained with Soil, indicating that he had fallen, but there is not a single bruise on his body, not even a bruise."
"Someone dirtied Mr. Genda's Clothes and left Footprint in his Room, making him mistakenly believe that his Sleepwalking had relapsed?" Mori Kogoro touched his chin, "But Why do this?"
"Don't you Understand yet? Uncle?" Hattori Heiji smiled and said with certainty, "The person who made Mr. Genda mistakenly believe that he was Sleepwalking is very likely the Real Culprit of this series of Arson Cases, just to make Mr. Genda take the Criminal Charge of Arson for him!"
Conan Nodded. Every Fire Scene had a Red Horse (toy) sent by Xuanda.
Too many coincidences, then it's not a coincidence.
But This Situation, he Seemingly has seen or heard of it somewhere...
Hattori Heiji also frowned and thought for a while, his Eyes suddenly lit up, and he exchanged a Glance with Conan, and Spoke Out in unison.
"ABC Murder Case!"
"ABC Murder Case?" Mori Kogoro was Stunned.
"A Case in the Poirot series by the Famous Detective Agatha Christie," Chi Feichei explained to his own blank-faced Teacher, "Killing those whose Names and place names of residence have the same starting Letter in ABC order, and placing an ABC Timetable next to the Corpse, making people think this is a serial Murder Case, but the Culprit's Real Goal is only to kill people whose Names start with the Letter C. Doing this is to use the disorder of unplanned Murder to Cover-up the order of planned Murder."
Mori Kogoro continued to have a blank Face.
Unplanned... disorder... Cover-up order...
"Correct," a smile appeared on the corner of Hattori Heiji's mouth, and he said with a firm Gaze, "This Arson Case, setting Fire in the order of 1-Chome, 2-Chome, and 3-chome, is very likely to Cover-up the Real Purpose of Murdering Mrs. Zhujiao (Family Name) who lives in 4-chome. Moreover, the cowardly Uncle Genda is completely the same as the person in the Novel who was controlled by the Real Criminal, mistakenly thought he was a Murderer, and was taken away by the Police."
"If Arson is to Cover-up the Purpose of Murder, then other people related to Mrs. Zhujiao (Family Name) are very suspicious," Conan Said, "For Example, Mr. Morozumi, if he discovered that his Wife was having an affair, it is Possible that he would Murder his Wife who was unfaithful to him."
"And there is also Miss Kondo Keiko," Hattori Heiji Look Towards Chi Feichei, "Her Reaction when she saw Brother Hissashi was too Weird. If she was downstairs in Brother Hissashi's Apartment Building before to Observe the Arson Location, and then saw Brother Hissashi at her Younger Sister's Doorstep, worried that Brother Hissashi had Discovered her Intention and also found her Younger Sister's Home, and was Scared and ran away because of this, then that also makes sense."
"Hmm..." Conan always felt that it was Unlikely. Miss Kondo Keiko Seemingly only had Fear and no Guilt at that Time, but Miss Kondo Keiko is indeed suspicious, "Then there is also that Feng Shui Master. The Deceased filmed a Video Recording of their affair and used it to Threaten him to divorce his Wife. It is also Possible that he used Arson to achieve the Purpose of Murder..."
Chi Feichei silently watched the two of them analyze sentence after sentence.
Famous Detective are really quite unrestrained when they encounter a Case. Officer Yumichou, who they are meeting for the First Time, is still present, yet they are so unreserved about showing their Ability.
As Conan Spoke, he also felt that he Seemingly had been unrestrained, and quickly said to Mori Kogoro with a smile, "Uncle, how was my imitation of your Deduction just now?"
"You kid is still far from it!" Mori Kogoro said with a proud face, and then took out his Mobile Phone to Look at the Time, "It's already four o'clock in the Early Morning now, it's too late to sleep again. Let's wait until tomorrow morning and Go To those three people to Ask about the Situation!"
Hattori Heiji Looked left and right, "Then let's do something to pass the Time."
"I..."
Chi Feichei had just Spoken Out when he was Interrupt by Conan.
"Don't tell Horror Story," Conan waved his arms, "I'm not sleepy at all!"
"Brother Hissashi can tell Horror Story?" Hattori Heiji became interested instead.
"Don't Say it, don't Say it!" Conan covered his Ears.
Hattori Heiji suddenly found it funny, "I Say, Ko..."
Conan: "!"
Chi Feichei: "..."
Famous Detective also has an even more unrestrained Teammate.
"Co...nan..." Hattori Heiji forcibly twisted the sound, paused, and rubbed Conan's Head with a smile, "So you're still afraid of those things?"
Conan gave a Half-Moon Eyes look. Why did he feel that being with Hattori was very dangerous?
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 827: How Come He's Not Human?
Since Conan, relying on his current identity as a Child, objected to Chi Feichei telling Horror Story, Gong Zhang and Mori Kogoro naturally sided with the Child, feeling that telling Horror Story to a Child late at night was indeed inappropriate.
"Then let's just chat about something else," Hattori Heiji said with a bit of regret, but thinking that he could tell Conan Horror Story and scare Conan in the future, he felt less disappointed. "If that Uncle Genda knew he wasn't the Arsonist, he'd probably feel much better. When the examination results come out tomorrow, we can tell him that he actually doesn't have Sleepwalking, right? He looks so depressed!"
Chi Feichei thought for a moment and decided to pour cold water on Hattori Heiji's beautiful expectations in advance, "The outcome won't be as you wish."
"Huh?" Hattori Heiji didn't understand, "Why?"
"Actually, it's not strange to have Sleepwalking as a Child. A Portion of Children may experience Sleepwalking symptoms if their Sleep environment is disturbed, they suffer from Sleep Deprivation, or have a fever and Infection. Generally, no special Treatment is needed. As they Age, it will probably disappear on its own around the Age of 15," Chi Feichei explained, wanting to pass the Time, "So, Mr. Genda having Sleepwalking as a Child doesn't mean he definitely has it now. The reason I say the Outcome won't be as you wish is because his Mental State is not stable right now. He believes Arson is his Crime, feels guilt and Anxiety, and is also uneasy about his self-diagnosed Sleepwalking. Given Mr. Genda's current Mental State, tomorrow's Inspection results will definitely not conclude that he doesn't have Sleepwalking or other Disease. After all, it involves a criminal Case and is related to whether he is the Criminal or not. Even if Brain Examination, Physical Examination, Blood Test, Mental State Examination, and other Inspections show no Problem, the Doctor will still conduct further Inspections and Confirmations. An accurate Outcome may not be obtained in the short term."
"Even if it takes a bit longer, it's good to be able to help him get an Inspection," Mori Kogoro lit a Cigarette and said with it in his mouth, "Last Time, during the Osaka 3K Hotel Incident, I talked to a Psychiatrist, and they were all very nice people. After talking, I felt much better."
"Mori, have you seen a Psychiatrist?" Gong Zhang, still maintaining the Posture of supporting his Neck and looking down at the Document on the Desktop, asked, and then continued to himself, "That's right, your Reputation as 'Sleeping Kogoro' is certainly famous, but maybe there's something wrong with you."
"No," Mori Kogoro denied with Black Lines on Forehead, "It was Hassashi who suddenly contacted a Doctor for me."
"Teacher, Mr. Genda is different from you," Chi Feichei spoke out, his tone still calm, "His Personality and current Mental State make him very susceptible to Psychological Suggestion. If the Police and Doctors are also looking for Evidence that he has some kind of Disease, over the long term, I'm afraid that before he's formally diagnosed, he will develop some kind of Mental Illness because of this Process. Simply put, Mr. Genda is easily influenced by others' Psychological Suggestion 'you are sick', and he is also desperately self-suggesting 'I am sick'. Even without Disease, he can be suggested into having Disease. He may even feel that he should have certain Symptoms based on the Doctor's Analysis, and reflect this Symptom on himself."
He had seen an example at Aoyama Fourth Hospital. That person was originally not sick, but as a result of being suggested by others and self-suggesting, he gradually became abnormal. Later, due to the abuse of Psychiatric Drugs, when he went to Aoyama Fourth Hospital for a formal Inspection, various Side Effects had already made that person's Situation even more serious.
He was not against the treatment faction. Many people really need Doctors. Having Doctors to guide them is much better. Zhi Ming Fukuyama has saved many people, pulling many out of the Darkness of despair. That is salvation from Life to Life.
Even now, what Zhi Ming Fukuyama thinks about is only 'saving' him, so even if he sometimes has headaches, he doesn't hate or resent Zhi Ming Fukuyama.
However, Xuanda (Family Name)'s current Situation is different. He's not seeking help from a Doctor as a patient, but going to a Doctor for a Psychiatric Evaluation as a Suspect.
If Xuanda (Family Name) continues to be given the opportunity for self-suggestion, then he can only say to Xuanda (Family Name) in his Heart in advance: You're finished, buddy.
"Uh, is it that serious?" Mori Kogoro was a little surprised.
"The Probability of this Situation occurring is very high," Chi Feichei Looked Towards Gong Zhang, quickly withdrew his Line of Sight, lit a Cigarette, anyway Gong Zhang can't move, so he stopped looking, "So I think the Psychiatric Evaluation for him can be postponed for a while. Let's rule out the Suspicion of others first."
Gong Zhang listened quietly, feeling that Chi Feichei's Stance was somewhat like standing from a Doctor's perspective, considering Xuanda (Family Name)'s Mental State first, rather than like a Detective or their Police, considering the Truth of the Case and catching the Criminal first, "Mr. Chi, are you a Psychiatrist?"
If there was a Psychiatrist here, then he could ask about Xuanda (Family Name)'s Situation, at least to have a bottom line in his Heart.
"I am a Patient." Chi Feichei didn't hide it.
"Pati..."
Gong Zhang not only had his Body frozen in the 'hand-supporting-head-thinking' Posture, but even his Face and Gaze were frozen, Black Lines on Forehead question mark face.
Patient???
"Hassashi has received psychological Treatment before. When he was in Hospitalization, he read some Book of this kind," Mori Kogoro explained.
Gong Zhang didn't know what to say to Chi Feichei, "Is that so? I thought you were a Detective..."
Conan's eyelid twitched. Sure enough, the next second, Chi Feichei explained.
"I am a Veterinarian..."
Gong Zhang: "..."
Is Chi Feichei's Thought a bit confused now?
Someone, please ask Mr. Chi to go out and Rest for a while.
"...Graduated from a professional program, but I'm not working at a Pet Hospital now," Chi Feichei finished speaking.
Gong Zhang sorted out his Clue. So, a Psychiatry Patient who had served as a Veterinarian became a Detective's apprentice... Very good, he understood.
After thinking about it, Gong Zhang still felt that what Chi Feichei said made sense, "Then the Psychiatric Evaluation for Xuanda (Family Name) will be postponed for now."
In the following Time, Gong Zhang and Mori Kogoro occasionally reminisced about the past, chatting about old acquaintances in the Fire Investigation Team, and Hattori Heiji and Conan occasionally interjected a few Sentences.
Chi Feichei leaned against the Window and smoked Cigarette, playing Snake Game on his Mobile Phone.
By the way, covering up the fact that he was secretly sending Emails.
Hassashi poked his head out to watch Chi Feichei play Game, Thoughtful.
Snakes really get bigger the more they eat, right?
After dawn, Gong Zhang broke free from his frozen State, moved his stiff and sore Hand and Foot, and had someone contact Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko, Feng Shui Master Zeng Wo, and Morozumi Akira, Zhujiao Ryoko's husband, to come to the Police Station to Cooperate with Investigation.
Hattori Heiji decided to go and Listen To the questioning Situation one by one. Gong Zhang didn't object and led the way for the Investigation four-person group.
"Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko has a Motive. Her and Mrs. Zhujiao's Father just passed away. The Old Master's Wife died very early. There are only these two Daughters. The Will gave all the Legacy to Mrs. Zhujiao, who married into the family and inherited the Surname Zhujiao (Family Name), but it didn't say that if the Younger Sister died, the Legacy could not be left to the Older Sister," Gong Zhang Reach Out and tapped his Neck. After being stiff for a Night, he felt his Neck was about to break, "In short, as long as Mrs. Zhujiao dies, she can inherit a large amount of Legacy."
Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko sat in the Lounge. Hearing the Sound of the Door being Opened, she Looked up and saw the Expressionless Young Man in Black Clothes standing behind Gong Zhang. Her Face turned Pale again in a Moment, "You... you..."
Gong Zhang Turn Head and Looked at Chi Feichei, asking Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko, "What's Wrong with him?"
"Ghost..." Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko shrank back, trembling all over. Her Eye staring straight at Chi Feichei was full of horror, "There's a Ghost..."
Mori Kogoro entered the Door, "You're not going to say he's possessed by an Evil Spirit and needs Money for you to Help solve it, are you?"
Hattori Heiji touched his chin. If she just wanted to swindle Money, isn't this Reaction a bit exaggerated...?
"Y-Yes, that's right!" Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko nodded hastily, then shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, don't look for me, I can't solve it, don't look for me, he's not Human either..."
Chi Feichei: "..."
How Come He's Not Human?
Conan: "..."
It always feels like this person's Mental State is not very normal either.
Gong Zhang Step Forward to help Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko up, and after comforting her for a while, he managed to calm Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko down a bit.
"I am a liar..." Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko saw Chi Feichei coming over and quickly moved towards the Window where there was Sunshine. Until Mori Kogoro and Gong Zhang silently blocked Chi Feichei behind them, she calmed down a bit before continuing, "I will install a Bug in the Crystal Ball, and then send the Crystal Ball to wealthy Clients, Eavesdropping on their Movement and conversations. When they come to me, I will say some things about their Situation to make them believe in my Divination."
Mori Kogoro was Speechless, "This is basically a Crime."
"Yes, yes!" Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko nodded quickly.
"Then..." Hattori Heiji Looked Towards Chi Feichei, and found that Chi Feichei still had a calm Face. He couldn't help but sigh in his Heart, Brother Chi is so Calm. If it were him, he would have exploded with anger long ago, "You sent the Crystal Ball to Brother Chi a week ago, and also Eavesdropping on his Movement from the Bug?"
"Yes, he doesn't speak..." Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko lowered her head slightly, her Expression wooden, but her Pupil constricted, "I can hear the Sound of the Door Switch, during the Day, at Night, but he has never spoken..."
Hattori Heiji said with Black Lines on Forehead, "Brother Chi lives alone. It's normal not to speak. It would be strange if he talked to himself, right?"
"Moreover, he has no Footsteps!" Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko suddenly Looked up, startling Hattori Heiji, but she still stared straight at Hattori Heiji, "I have never heard Footsteps either..."
Conan was Speechless. Chi Feichei's Footsteps are indeed very light. He had been startled by Chi Feichei speaking out suddenly behind him several times, and hadn't Sense when Chi Feichei had sneaked over, "Brother Chi's Footsteps are very light, but there's nothing wrong with that, right?"
"And..." Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko still stared at Hattori Heiji, seemingly afraid of alarming something. Her Speaking Voice was eerily soft, "Speaking Voice."
Hattori Heiji felt that the Temperature in this House had dropped a lot, and sweated a bit, "R-Really? But didn't you say you never heard him Speak?"
Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko Looked at Chi Feichei, who was blocked behind Mori Kogoro, quickly withdrew her Line of Sight, clenched her hands tightly on her Knees, and her Sound was still very soft, "Yes... a very strange Sound, cold and ethereal, a Woman's Sound... sometimes during the Day, sometimes at Night, that Sound would suddenly ring out, saying 'Where's my Head?', 'It's so troublesome that no one is Helping to find my Head', 'Found it, my Head' and such Words. She's been looking for her Head, always looking..."
Conan suddenly had a very unreal Feeling.
He dodged Chi Feichei's Horror Story in the Early Morning, but why does he still have to Listen To it when he comes to the Investigation?
Although this Woman's Sound is not as calm as Chi Feichei's, which makes people feel a chill down their spine as soon as he tells a Horror Story, this Expression and softened Sound, the Effect is also at Chi Feichei's six or seven Standard, right?
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 828: Slightly Higher Ratio
Mori Kogoro and Gong Zhang exchanged a glance and remained silent.
They suspected that Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko had mental problems.
"I've been listening for three days," Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko murmured softly, staring down at her clenched, pale knuckles. "Every day, there's only the sound of doors opening and closing. Occasionally, late at night or during the day, that Terrifying Female Voice appears. I don't dare to listen anymore, but I can't help myself..."
"Hissashi, are you watching horror movies at home?" Mori Kogoro asked.
"No."
Chi Feichei denied it, not mentioning that he hadn't been home these past few days.
"No horror movie can be watched for several days, right?" Conan said in a childish, cute voice. "Brother Chi is active at home every day, but he doesn't talk, there are no footsteps, no one comes to visit, no communication with anyone, only the sound of doors opening and closing can be heard. It's really depressing. Could it be that Miss Kwon Do is too nervous or under too much Mental Pressure, so she's experiencing Auditory Hallucination?"
"No, it's not Auditory Hallucination, I'm sure it's there..." Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko suddenly took out her Mobile Phone. "Wait a moment, I've already recorded that terrifying sound!"
When Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko played the Recording, there was no Terrifying Female Voice she described, only static noise, as if the signal was bad.
The entire Recording played in silence, with occasional clicks of Doors Opening and Closing, the creaking sound of a Door slowly opening, and the Sound of Water, but indeed, there was not a single Footstep or speaking Sound.
Mori Kogoro felt uneasy all over as he listened.
Just imagine, his apprentice gets up alone at dawn to wash up, changes into Black Clothes, goes out for a walk, or simply stays at home, sits quietly with a cold face, or moves silently Inside the Room without a word, eats and goes about his activities silently, Returns to Room to sleep, without saying a word all day, and the next day is still like this... Just imagining it, he felt the scene was very strange, and indeed like a Ghost wandering alone Inside the house.
Gong Zhang was silent. He believed it. Mori's apprentice was really not normal. How could an Ordinary Person endure that kind of silent, oppressive Atmosphere? Not to mention living like that alone for several days.
Hattori Heiji was speechless. "Brother Hichiji, don't you even watch Television when you're home alone?"
"I usually Return to Room to play Game on the Computer," Chi Feichei said.
Hattori Heiji breathed a sigh of relief. That's good then, having Entertainment makes it less strange. He said to the stunned Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko, "It's possible that Brother Hichiji Returns to Room whenever he does other things, so you didn't hear other Movement caused by his activities. He's alone at Home, it's normal for him to stay in his Room often."
"No, that's impossible," Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko looked at her Mobile Phone in disbelief. "How could it be gone? I clearly heard that Terrifying Female Voice, and I heard it several times, how could it be..."
Chi Feichei said calmly, "Perhaps you understand Supernatural Things too much, and you're experiencing Auditory Hallucination."
Xiaomei does often lose her 'head' and then mutters softly as she looks for her head everywhere at Home.
Last night, when he took Xuanda Ryutoku to find the Police, he sent an Email to Feimo, asking Feimo to put an Electromagnetic Jammer in Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko's Home.
Placing that thing near the Listening Device for three or four hours can damage the Recording, eliminating all Sounds above a certain decibel. Although it can't completely eliminate the Sound, it can turn it into a static noise like a bad signal.
As long as Xuanda Ryutoku confessed to the Police last night, the Police would focus on investigating Xuanda Ryutoku. By the time the Police or Hattori Heiji found Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko, Feimo would have already turned the Recording in the Listening Device into Noise. This would not only prevent others from hearing Xiaomei's Sound, but also provide him with cover—
Proving that he was at Home these past two days.
These days, 'Raki' has been staying in the Laboratory. Although the only people who know about it besides The Boss are Rum and Gin, who are unlikely to Betrayal, it's still necessary to prevent Rumors from spreading.
When 'Raki' is active in other places, having the Identity of 'Chi Feichei' active elsewhere makes it less likely for people to suspect that he is Raki.
Evidence like an 'Alibi' is never too much.
A hint of confusion appeared in Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko's eyes. "Auditory... Auditory Hallucination?"
"I suggest you see a Psychiatrist when you have time," Gong Zhang said seriously. "However, the reason I asked you to come here this time is to tell you something. Last night, your younger sister, Mrs. Zhujiao Ryoko's Home, caught Fire, and she died in the Fire as well. Yesterday afternoon, Mr. Chi and the others Saw you arrive there. I want to ask you, after you left there, where did you go, what did you do, and is there anyone who can testify for you?"
Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko was silent for a moment, looking somewhat tired. "My relationship with Ryoko wasn't good. I have a Gambling habit, and my Luck is bad, so I owe a lot of Money. Recently... Recently, I feel like I've encountered a Ghost, and I'm very uneasy. Yesterday, I went to Ryoko to talk to her. Although we're sisters, we haven't sat down and talked properly for several years. But she thought I was there to borrow Money and didn't want to talk to me much. After I left, I Returned to Home. Recently, I've been going Home before dark. No one can prove it for me."
"Then, what do you think of Mrs. Ryoko's relationship with her Husband?" Conan pressed.
"Mr. Morozumi Akira?" Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko recalled. "Their relationship is very good, but they haven't had children for so many years. I heard that Mr. Morozumi's work as a Psychiatrist is too busy, and he's under too much Mental Pressure. Ryoko complained to me twice a few years ago, but she hasn't mentioned it much in the past two years."
"You said he's a Psychiatrist?" Hattori Heiji stood up and asked urgently.
"Y-yes..." Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko was startled by Hattori Heiji's intense reaction. "Is there a Problem with that?"
"Nothing much," Gong Zhang took out a Photo, let Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko see the charred Small Purple Cushion in the Photo, and stared at Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko as he asked, "Mrs. Ryoko was holding this Small Purple Cushion in her hand when she died. You should be familiar with this thing, right?"
Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko's face turned ugly for a moment. "Yes, it's the Cushion that I sent out together with the Crystal Ball. I also gave one to Ryoko. But there were no Bugs in the Crystal Ball and Cushion I gave her. I only gave it to her before to thank her for lending me Money. I don't know why she would be holding this thing. Besides, hasn't the Arsonist already been caught?"
"Just want to understand the Situation," Gong Zhang said noncommittally, put away the Photo, and asked again, "Then, do you know this person Xuanda?"
"Xuanda... I don't know him."
"Is that so..."
Next was Morozumi Akira, who had grass growing on his head.
According to the Police investigation, Xuanda Ryutoku, after suspecting that he had an episode of Sleepwalking, went to see a Psychiatrist, and that Doctor was Morozumi Akira.
"The Arsonist is Xuanda?" Morozumi Akira looked surprised. "H-how is that possible?"
"It's not confirmed yet, but he insists that he committed the crime. I heard that he also came to you for Treatment before?" Gong Zhang asked.
"Yes, he said that there seemed to be another self inside him, and when he was unconscious, another self would appear and do some terrible things," Morozumi Akira recalled. "I prescribed him some Sedatives."
Gong Zhang looked at Chi Feichei. He felt like he was probably crazy, actually wanting to ask a Psychiatry patient to evaluate whether there was a Problem with a Psychiatrist's Treatment, but among them, Chi Feichei was probably the one who understood it a bit better.
Sigh, it seems that there are quite a few people who have seen a Psychiatrist in recent years due to excessive Pressure. Even if Xuanda might have been Mislead, Chi Feichei is a confirmed case, Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko definitely has a Problem, a big Problem at first glance, and then there's Mori...
Right, he suspected that the existence of Mori's 'Sleeping Kogoro' was also some kind of Disease, the kind that requires seeing a Psychologist.
Going through this circle, the Ratio is really not small.
Chi Feichei received Gong Zhang's Line of Sight and Spoke Out, asking Morozumi Akira, "Mr. Morozumi, do you think Mr. Genda has Sleepwalking?"
"Not Necessarily, it could also be Dissociative Identity Disorder," Morozumi Akira said. "Of course, I also suspect that he was too nervous. He seemed very Anxiety when he came to see me, so I prescribed him Nitrazepam."
"What's the Dosage?" Chi Feichei asked.
Morozumi Akira looked puzzled, but did not hesitate, "10 milligrams."
Chi Feichei Nodded and didn't ask further.
Gong Zhang Understood and turned to ask about things related to the time of the Fire last night.
Morozumi Akira had an Alibi. At the time of the Fire, he was drinking with that Feng Shui Master Misao Soga.
After leaving the Lounge, Conan Looked Towards Chi Feichei, "I remember Brother Ike's Diagnosis Report mentioned Dissociative Identity Disorder, and it was diagnosed by Doctor Fukuyama, and a follow-up confirmed recovery."
"Dissociative Identity Disorder?" Mori Kogoro was stunned.
"It's Multiple Personalities," Chi Feichei explained. "Generally, psychological Treatment is the main approach, but Nitrazepam, a type of Benzodiazepines, can indeed be used in conjunction with Treatment. It has Anti-Anxiety, Sedation, and significant Hypnosis effects. Occasionally, there will be Headaches, but no obvious Aftereffects. Sleepwalking can also be treated with this type of Medication. Moreover, even if Mr. Morozumi has any Ideas, he wouldn't make Tricks in a place that's easy to be found out. If he, as a Psychiatrist, still prescribes the wrong Medicine, he will arouse Suspicion."
"Also Correct," Hattori Heiji stroked his chin and said, "However, if the Effect of the Drug makes Mr. Genda sleep very deeply, he would have the Opportunity to Infiltration Mr. Genda's Home at Night, leaving traces of Activity in Mr. Genda's Home, making Mr. Genda believe that he has some kind of Disease."
"Has Brother Ike taken that kind of Medicine?" Conan asked, "Can 10 milligrams make Mr. Genda sleep to the point of unconsciousness?"
"Never taken it. I don't have Anxiety or Insomnia," Chi Feichei answered decisively. At that time, because of the Original Consciousness, he was taking Antidepressants. "But 10 milligrams is enough for Mr. Genda to sleep very deeply."
Next was Misao Soga.
Misao Soga originally studied at Medical University, but dropped out halfway and turned to Feng Shui.
Xuanda met Misao Soga at the Antique Market. It was also Misao Soga who recommended Xuanda to see Morozumi Akira for Treatment. And yesterday, he appeared in the Vicinity of Zhujiao Family's Home because Misao Soga told Xuanda that the Houses in that area were in an Auspicious Location, and going there could enhance his Luck.
Uh-huh, directly enhanced to the extent of encountering a Plague God and ending up in the Police Station.
It seemed that Misao Soga's Suspicion of manipulating Xuanda was very high, but he also had an Alibi. At the Crime Scene, he was drinking with Morozumi Akira.
"Can you confirm that the Fire started at 7:30 PM?" Gong Zhang asked.
"The Younger Brother from the Next Door neighbor's Home Saw it, it shouldn't be wrong," Hattori Heiji stroked his chin and thought. "But it could also be an Automatic Ignition Device, so let's Confirm it again! And by the way, go to the Fire Scene to take a look, maybe there will be some Clues."
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 829: Gaze from Doctor Chi
Gong Zhang did not object and, by the way, took Chi Feichei's Car to Zhujiao Residence.
When the five people arrived, Kazuha Toyama and Mouri Ran, who had woken up, also ran over.
Chi Feichei did not go with them to Next Door Neighbor's House to ask the Little Boy, but just went to the Ruins of the Fire Scene to Looked, and after Confirming that the Case had not changed, went to the Vicinity to buy Breakfast.
He remembered this Method of automatic ignition: wrapping Toilet Paper around a high-wattage Light Bulb in the Family Warehouse, wedging a Match between the Light Bulb and Toilet Paper, then pouring Gasoline on the Floor, turning on the Light Bulb, and Go Out. Once the Light Bulb surface became hot enough, it would ignite the Match and Toilet Paper, which would fall to the Ground and ignite the Gasoline, causing the Fire to burn quickly.
In his previous life, he had Specially Experimented with it. Those high-wattage Light Bulbs were not easy to buy, and many had already stopped production, while low-wattage ones would not burn.
In the Ruins of the Scene, there were burnt brown Traces of Match on the Light Bulb Fragments, and there were also Ashes left over from the burnt Toilet Paper.
Since he had Confirmed that Matters had not changed, there was No Need to Look again.
Not long Afterwards Chi Feichei left, Hattori Heiji and Conan ran out of the Next Door Little Boy's Home, and once again climbed over the Wall to Zhujiao Residence, searching back and forth in the Ruins, until they found the Light Bulb Fragments and the Toilet Paper Ashes remaining at the Scene, then they Looked at each other, smiles appearing on their Faces.
"Found it!"
"Uh-huh!"
Silence.
The Two People were Silent for a moment, Conan glanced at the Footprint beside his Foot that was obviously much larger, "But Seemingly someone was one step faster again."
The single word "again" expressed his infinite sorrow.
"Pfft..." Hattori Heiji Suddenly laughed Speak Out, smilingly poked Conan's Head with his Finger, "Hey, Kudo, Brother Hissashi and you are both in Tokyo, what's it like to always have someone one step faster than you?"
What's the experience? The Pace of this Case is still considered Normal, in the past, it was more than just one step faster, it was Just Like Two People playing Poker Card together, and he had just started sorting his Cards, and the other side directly threw out all their Cards and won.
Conan put his Hands in his pockets, Expressionless Go Outwards, "It's very rewarding, I'll be able to widen the distance with you sooner or later."
Hattori Heiji immediately felt a Sense of Crisis, pondered and followed. Should he Call Brother Hissashi to run a few more Cases?
When the Two People left the Ruins, they happened to catch up with Chi Feichei returning from buying Breakfast, one Sandwich for each person, with a cup of Milk or Coffee to go.
"Thank You, Brother Hissashi!"
"Thank You, Brother Chi~"
"Thank you, kid."
Chi Feichei distributed the Things, and after the Others thanked him and took the Things, a certain White Cat smelled the scent and ran over again.
This time, Wu Ming chose Mouri Ran and Kazuha Toyama, Two Girl, trotting forward, and also performed a cute 'emergency Brake' appearance, widened its Water-blue Eyes, and Staring up at the Sandwich in Mouri Ran's Hand, "Meow... Meow~"
Intention: Hurry and feed me.
Chi Feichei saw Mouri Ran and Kazuha Toyama squatting down to pet and feed the Cat, withdrew his Line of Sight, and silently ate Things.
Stupid Wu Ming, people who are truly willing to give Food to Stray Cat don't expect anything in return from the Cat. Even if Wu Ming doesn't recognize them after eating, many people wouldn't mind. It's just Wu Ming Onself who is enthusiastically playing the 'scumbag girl' Routine.
"Huh? This Cat..." Hattori Heiji walked forward in Doubt.
Wu Ming stopped eating Things and hid beside Kazuha Toyama.
"Heiji, you scared it," Kazuha Toyama said busily, "Don't Come Over!"
Hattori Heiji did not Step Forward again and retreated, "It was clearly fine yesterday."
Conan munched on his Sandwich, "I Said yesterday, it Should be that you hurt it when you hugged it."
"Impossible, my Actions were very gentle," Hattori Heiji ate his Sandwich, pondered for a moment, and Looked Towards Chi Feichei, "Brother Hissashi, could it be that this Cat is not feeling well?"
Chi Feichei Looked Towards Wu Ming, who was squatting in front of the Two Girl and eating Things.
This Cat is a little thinner than when he first saw it, but still within the Normal range, and Wu Ming is unwilling for him to approach, just Looked from afar, and he has no Method to diagnose.
He does want to know Whether Wu Ming has had Neutering Surgery, Whether or Not to find out...
Although with Wu Ming's Ability, it could raise a few kittens, having too many isn't ideal. Selective breeding is important.
If it wants kittens, Wu Ming can have one or two litters and then find him to arrange it. For the sake of knowing each other, he can even waive the Post-operative Care Fee for Wu Ming.
Wu Ming ate almost enough, just about to Turn Head to give Chi Feichei a provocative Gaze, Suddenly received the Staring from Doctor Chi, that deep and strange Gaze made it Subconsciously fluff up its Fur, 'Whoosh' and darted into the distance, running away without turning its Head back.
It suspected this human peasant wanted to harm it, so it was outta there!
"Hey—" Mouri Ran saw Wu Ming Run Away, and regretfully withdrew her outstretched Hand.
A Group of People After Meal Breakfast, went to Genda Residence again for Investigation.
In Genda Residence, the Vase at the Entrance Doorway was bought from Feng Shui Master Zeng Wo, and there was a Bug inside; in the Living Room, there was a Crystal Ball given by Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko, and there was also a Bug inside; in addition, the Landline Phone's Phone Bill every month was very High, and a Bug was also found during the Inspection.
This was someone living under constant Eavesdropping.
After Hattori Heiji finished the Inspection, he couldn't help but Sigh, "Have these Feng Shui Master and Fortune Teller already started using Eavesdropping Means to deceive people now?"
"But in this way, Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko and Zeng Wo could both be the True Culprit who manipulated Xuanda," Mori Kogoro said, stroking his chin.
"No, on the contrary," Hattori Heiji explained, "If it were the two of them, when they Infiltration into Mr. Genda's Clothes that left Footprint and were stained with Soil, they Should have recovered the Bugs they placed in the Vase or Crystal Ball, leaving only the one in the Phone, because the Bugs placed in the Vase and Crystal Ball are easily discovered, and if they were discovered by Xuanda or the Police, wouldn't they Suspect that they are the Murderer? This also shows that the Two of them have not Infiltration into Mr. Genda's House."
"Moreover, only Mr. Morozumi can make Mr. Genda obediently fall into a deep Sleep!" Conan turned into a Child's appearance.
The True Culprit is Morozumi Akira. But there is no conclusive Evidence to prove it.
Even If Xuanda Ryutoku's Stomach has Sleeping Pill ingredients, and there is Hair or other Traces left by Morozumi Akira in Genda Residence, it cannot form a Chain of Evidence.
Because Fortune Teller Kwon Do Keiko could have been having Sleep Problem Recently and taken Sleeping Pill Oneself, and Morozumi Akira's Hair in Genda Residence could also have been brought back after sticking to Xuanda's Clothes.
A large Search Command is too Troublesome, Hattori Heiji Decided to lure the snake out of its Nest.
Chi Feichei Decided... Go Home.
Since Matters are already clear, and he has no Interest in performing a detective show, it's better to Go Home and catch up on Sleep.
In the Evening, Chi Feichei, who had woken up from Sleep, made a pile of Bento, brought them to A Group of People who were still squatting at Genda Residence, and also the High School Notes that Mouri Ran wanted.
"Thank You, Brother Hissashi," Mouri Ran took the Book, and put the Bento Box Aside, flipping through the Notes in the Book, explained, "I borrowed Notes from a Senior who is in University, but she didn't have Mathematics class Notes..."
Kazuha Toyama leaned closer to Look, "Ran, you are so serious!"
"Huh?" Conan also leaned forward, pointed at the Signature on the first page, "Brother Chi's Character Seemingly is A Bit Difference from now."
"The Handwriting and Brainwave of Different Personalities are Different," Chi Feichei Said calmly Aside, "After the Wall between Personalities is eliminated, it is Possible to fuse the habits of both sides."
This is also the Evidence that Zhi Ming Fukuyama confirmed his Multiple Personalities.
When he and the Original Consciousness respectively dominated the Body, the Handwriting and Brainwave were Different. It was not until the Original Consciousness actively dissipated and gave him the Memory that his Handwriting also had a little Transformation. Overall, it was similar to his Handwriting in his previous life, but occasionally there would be some Details that remained consistent with the Original Consciousness.
"Is that so?" Hattori Heiji leaned forward Curiously, "It's really amazing that there is more than one Consciousness and more than one kind of Brainwave in one person's Body."
Gong Zhang, who was eating by the Wall Side, couldn't help but Turn Head to Look at Mori Kogoro beside him, "Mori, have you been to the Hospital to Check? Do you have Different Brainwave in Normal State and Sleeping State?"
Mori Kogoro Said with Black Lines on Forehead, "I don't Need to see a Doctor, please don't worry about it."
Conan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his Heart, just afraid that Uncle would really Suspect that he had a Problem, and if he ran to the Hospital for Inspection, something else would be found out, For Example, that the Sleeping State was Actually Anesthesia...
Kazuha Toyama, Mouri Ran, and Hattori Heiji were still squatting together Look Notes.
After Hattori Heiji finished reading the content of one page, Speechless Looked up at Chi Feichei who was standing Aside and smoking, "Is this a solution Method that you would only learn in University Mathematics?"
"Can it be used?" Chi Feichei Asked Mouri Ran.
These are the Notes recorded by the Original Consciousness during High School, that Child was crazy about Study, and the Notes are also a bit beyond the scope.
For Example, when a first-grade Elementary School Student is calculating '3+4+4', and the Teacher is teaching them to add one by one, the Original Consciousness directly came up with '4×2+3'. The same is true for High School Notes, there will be some problem-solving steps that High School Student cannot understand.
"This..." Mouri Ran sweated a little, "A Portion of it is understandable, I'll use it for reference."
Chi Feichei just wanted to remind Mouri Ran to proceed step by step, Sense Mobile Phone Vibration, took it out, and walked to the other side of the Car to answer.
"Mother?"
"Hissashi, is it Evening in Japan now? Have you After Meal?"
"I have After Meal, do you have Matters?"
"There is something I want to Say to you," on the other side of the Phone Call, Chi Kana suppressed the helplessness in her Heart, her voice was still gentle and soft, and there was no way to have Daily Routine Topics to chat with her Son, she made it herself, "Her Majesty the Queen will visit Japan, and will Probably arrive at ten o'clock the day After Tomorrow morning, stay in Tokyo for two days, and then take the luxury Train Royal Express to Osaka, stay in Osaka for two days, she Intention for you to be one of her guides, I want to Ask your Intention."
Chi Feichei pondered for a moment and agreed, "No Problem."
As Constitutional Monarchy countries, both the Emperor Doll of Japan and the Queen of Britain now serve more as symbols. However, compared to the Japanese Imperial Family, which holds almost no real power, the Queen of Britain still retains some Right, such as the power to declare war and peace with a country, the right to appoint and dismiss Nobility, and the right to political intelligence. However, the Queen generally doesn't exercise these powers, refraining from political interference and peacefully acting as a symbol.
If that's the case, then so be it. Apart from his Mother's Obsession with the Field Peerage, they can't ask for anything from the Queen. However, the Queen of Britain's Status in the hearts of the British People is also higher than the Emperor Doll's Status in the hearts of the Japanese People, and can be called a spiritual Faith.
If they refuse the Queen's designated accompaniment Matters to spread out, it is Possible that it will cause British People's hostility towards Field Group, Umbrella and other Businesses.
Anyway, he has been free Recently, refusing will have the Possibility of reducing his own Income and affecting the Development of his own Business. Agreeing, although there are no obvious Benefit, and he does not Intention to hype his own Business or increase Fame, but getting acquainted with the Queen will at least not be harmful.
Moreover, the Queen also has quite a few Assets under her name. Maybe there will be Opportunities for Cooperation in the future?
Uh-huh, but there is No Need to Say these to His Mom. His Mom, Like most British People, worships and Respects the Queen. Although as a Capitalist she is more of a Realist, if he were to Say his Considerations, His Mom would Probably Say words Like 'Realist are not Romantic at all'.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 830: The Evil Extravagance of Extravagance
"Then I'll send you the itinerary, take a look first, and ask me if you have any questions," Chi Kana said softly and gently, "I told the Queen that the Doctor wants you to rest more, and if you feel tired, just frankly ask to leave, she will also understand. I'll also call Ai and ask her if she wants to go with you."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone call, Chi Feichei left first on the pretext of going to Doctor Agasa's House. On the way to Doctor Agasa's House, he sent an email to The Boss.
Daily routine report, and also check if the Organization has any actions.
If someone from the Organization takes the opportunity to cause trouble, he has to let Haibara Ai avoid it.
The Boss's reply was simple:
[Recently, you don't need to do anything, free activity, pay attention to collecting intelligence, the people at the upcoming banquet are all dignitaries, understand the Basic Situation of those people, it will be used later.]
[Ok. ——Raki]
When Chi Feichei arrived at Doctor Agasa's House, Haibara Ai had just finished talking to Chi Kana on the phone and decided to go with Chi Feichei to meet the Queen. She left a bento for Doctor Agasa, ran to Chi Feichei's Apartment to stay overnight, and by the way... receive clothes.
An hour later, two young maids arranged by Chi Kana delivered the clothes Haibara Ai would wear on various occasions, and picked out the clothes to change into with Haibara Ai.
Chi Feichei poured himself a glass of Scotch Whisky, sat on the balcony drinking, and let Hassashi play the Minesweeper Game on the tablet.
British People are very particular about dressing etiquette. They wear different clothes for different occasions. Wearing the wrong clothes will be laughed at, and they can't be too ostentatious. They must conform to that set of Rules.
To put it simply, in formal occasions, men don't wear jeans, shorts, T-shirts, or sportswear. Anyway, just remember to wear formal wear.
To put it more complexly, evening gowns and Day Dress for daytime activities are different, and it depends on the specifications and environment. If you are shopping or visiting an exhibition, you should dress more casually so that you can blend into the atmosphere, but don't even think about sportswear. You still need formal wear in the style of a suit, and you also need to consider the material and color of the clothes according to the content of the exhibition.
In addition, choose suitable materials according to the season, choose shoes according to clothes and occasions, and choose suitable accessories such as bow ties, neckties, and top hats according to the occasion...
He just wants to manually say goodbye.
Not to mention women.
To put it simply, when meeting the Queen, don't wear pants. Prepare a dress that goes over the knee, decent, elegant, not ostentatious, and not revealing, so that people can feel comfortable. Chi Kana's clothes are generally dresses that just go over the knee.
To put it more complexly, unmarried women and married women have different rules about not wearing crowns. In addition, there are different dressing rules for formal dinners, banquets, afternoon tea, travel, and sports. You also need to add accessories such as hats and gloves.
Anyway, he didn't want to listen to the women in the room picking out clothes, it was a Brain Pain.
Hassashi played the Minesweeper Game for more than an hour, turned his head and saw Haibara Ai behind the Glass Door still preparing clothes with two maids, then turned his head again and found that his Master was staring at the city lights in the distance in a daze, and quietly poked his head towards the wine glass.
The next second, Hassashi was pressed on the Table by a finger.
Chi Feichei picked up Hassashi and put him aside, "I'll buy you low-alcohol fruit wine another day."
Hassashi was immediately happy, "Master, are you tired? Do you want me to massage your back? Or sing you a song?"
"No Need."
Chi Feichei refused and clicked on the Snake Game on the tablet.
Hassashi happily went to play Snake Game again.
Chi Feichei just picked up his cup and was about to drink when he received a phone call from Hattori Heiji.
"Brother Hichiji, Mr. Morozumi has already confessed on the spot. We plan to go back to the Detective Agency to rest. Mr. Genda can go home tonight, but before I go back to Osaka tomorrow, I want to go to his shop to take a look. What about you? Do you want to go together?"
"The Queen of England arrives the day after tomorrow, I have to prepare."
"Queen?" Hattori Heiji became interested, "I also heard that the Queen seems to be going to Osaka for sightseeing? It's a pity, I heard that the Royal Express Train is traveling four days later. Kazuha and I are going back tomorrow, otherwise we could buy tickets for the same Train."
Chi Feichei waited for Hattori Heiji to finish his excited rambling before saying, "I can get five Luxury Suite tickets. I left one for Doctor Agasa. The number of people meeting the Queen is limited, so we may not be able to see her, but it can be regarded as a Luxury Train Travel. Food, accommodation, and Drinks on the Train are free. If you and Kazuha don't want it, help me ask Ran and the others."
"Ah, okay, wait a moment..."
The voice on the other end of the phone became quieter, and after a while, Hattori Heiji said, "Uncle is going, Ran and Kid Conan also plan to go together. Kazuha and I are going back tomorrow, we will wait for you at Osaka Station then!"
"Okay, then I'll contact them again tomorrow."
"Is it Edogawa and the others?" Haibara Ai walked to the balcony with a tired face, and casually pulled an empty chair to sit down.
"It's Hattori, I asked him to ask Ran and the others if they want tickets."
"They agreed, right?"
"Uh-huh, have you finished picking?"
"Picked out," Haibara Ai lowered her head and rubbed her eyes. She didn't know if she was sleepy or if her eyes were blurred. She was a little listless, "I've tried them all, they fit well, no need to change them anymore."
A maid walked to the edge of the balcony, "Miss Ai, would you like something to drink?"
Haibara Ai put on a calm face in a second, turned her head and said to the maid, "Go to the refrigerator and see if there is any juice. You guys also take a rest and have a drink. The Ice Cubes are in the freezer layer below. Please add a little Ice Cubes for me. Please feel free to add Ice Cubes if you want."
"Yes, please wait a moment." The maid took two steps back, turned and left.
Haibara Ai looked at Chi Feichei, "How is it?"
Isn't it just a corrupt life with someone serving you? She won't be intimidated.
"Very good." Chi Feichei gave an evaluation along with it.
Haibara Ai turned her head to look at the two maids busy collecting clothes and pouring juice, "It's so late, how are they going back later?"
Chi Feichei picked up his cup and took a sip of wine, "Before the Queen leaves, they will follow you and take care of your Daily Routine."
Go back? You're thinking too much.
Haibara Ai's mouth twitched slightly. It's okay to be a little corrupt, but if someone is really staring at her all day, she will feel uncomfortable, "I can take care of Oneself."
Chi Feichei was silent for a moment, "Someone needs to take the clothes, we two can't carry them with us."
Haibara Ai carefully calculated and understood.
The day after tomorrow, she will wear casual clothes to pick up the plane, and change into an evening gown for the banquet in the evening. There may not be time to come back to change clothes in the middle. There is also a set of spares prepared, in case there are unexpected situations and no clothes to change. Just for her, she will have to bring at least three sets the day after tomorrow, plus Chi Feichei's side is about the same.
Six sets of clothes, they can't just carry a box with them to pick up the plane.
When taking the Train to Osaka, she will also have to bring the clothes that need to be changed throughout the Itinerary, and the number will only increase.
So someone needs to help them take clothes, and when they can't get away, they also need someone to help them prepare Things.
So the question is, how many clothes will she change these days?
...
That night, Haibara Ai and the maids stayed in the room at Chi Kana's place.
"Miss Ai, I have already put hot water for you, do you need help?" the maid asked with a smile.
"No Need, I can do it Oneself," Haibara Ai turned her head to look at the Living Room next door, which was still lit, "Aren't you going to help Brother Hichiji Packing Up?"
"No, that's not allowed," another maid explained gently, "We cannot enter Young Master Hissashi's Room or touch Young Master Hissashi's personal belongings. The place to live at night must be partitioned. If he needs help, male maids can be arranged to come over, but he told Mrs. Kana that No Need Help."
Haibara Ai nodded, "Then you guys should Rest first."
The two maids silently waited for Haibara Ai to Wash Up and take a bath, then one helped to blow-dry her Hair, and the other helped to make the Bed. Before leaving, they did not forget to ask Haibara Ai if she needed to listen to a Bedtime Story.
"No Need, Thank You."
"Then what kind of Breakfast would you like to eat tomorrow morning?"
"Anything is fine."
"What about the sweetness of the Food?"
"Not too sweet."
"Do you need sugar in your Milk?"
"No Need."
"Okay, then we won't disturb your Rest, good night."
Haibara Ai nestled in the Quilt, and waited for the two maids to turn off the lights and go out before letting out a long sigh of relief.
She felt that the evil extravagance of extravagance was eroding her Life Ability.
The next day, Haibara Ai woke up and got out of Bed to Wash Up, and was blocked by the maids.
"You can Call us when you wake up..."
"Miss Ai, do you have any Arrangements for today? Do you want to prepare your clothes for you In Advance?"
Haibara Ai declined all Help. After Packing Up, she went to the Dining Room and greeted Chi Feichei sleepily, "Brother Hichiji, good morning."
"Morning." Chi Feichei was flipping through the Morning Newspaper.
On the Table, Feimo 'ga ga' called out to Haibara Ai twice, and Hassashi also greeted her. Thinking that Haibara Ai could not hear its voice, it tapped the Desktop with its Tail tip again.
"Feimo, Hassashi, good morning to you too," Haibara Ai saw that Hassashi and Feimo were both on the Table, and there were also gold plates and gold bowls with snake patterns and Crow patterns in front of them, "Are these their special Cutlery?"
"Gifts Mother sent them," Chi Feichei waited for the maid to serve Breakfast, "They don't usually use them very much, they are here to join in the Excitement today."
After the maids served Breakfast to Chi Feichei and Haibara Ai, one took out a plate containing Fish Meat Chunks and added Raw Fish Chunks to Hassashi's Small Dish, and the other brought out a plate containing Apple Chunks and added Apple Chunks to Feimo's Bowl in front of him, moving gently.
Haibara Ai looked up at the two maids and said, "You guys go back to Rest after Breakfast. Brother Hichiji and I will Go Out for a walk. You don't need to accompany us. Come back at seven o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Okay."
The two maids took Breakfast to the Room, finished Breakfast, and went to the Dining Room to clean up the Cutlery before leaving together.
Haibara Ai breathed a sigh of relief.
As expected, if the Godmother is not here, the maids will be under her Arrangement and do not need to go through Brother Hichiji, and Brother Hichiji will not interfere.
Chi Feichei walked to the Entrance Hall. Seeing Haibara Ai looking at him in Doubt, he explained, "Go to get the tickets, send one to Doctor Agasa, and then take you to the Amusement Park. Send the rest to the Detective Agency in the evening."
Amusement Park, this kind of childish Entertainment, she...
Haibara Ai nodded calmly, and Step Forward to change her Shoes, "Since there is nothing to do, let's go to pass the Time."
(/ω\)
She won't say she really wants to go!
