## Chapter 731: Bastard! Too Bastard!
On the Street, the Public had already been Evacuated, with only Police Officers busily working.
"The Criminal is using Plastic Bomb."
"The Detonate Bomb Method isn't Timer, but Remote Detonation…"
Inspector Megure looked at the Investigation Result, "Possible to Utilize Mobile Phone or similar Things for Detonation, perhaps."
Police Officer Takagi's Face changed drastically, "N-No way… Could it be…"
Chi Feichei walked closer, Subconsciously Look Towards the Explosion Site.
Electronic Detonator? Or Electric Igniter?
"The Criminal Possible Is in the Vicinity, Seeing Takagi Go To the Car, Then Intentionally Detonate Bomb," Ninzaburo Shiratori said with a Serious Expression.
Criminal in the Vicinity?
Conan, who had wandered to the Vicinity, touched his chin. Then, the Possibility that the person who took Mitsuhiko's Camera is the Criminal is very High.
"Correct, Although the Explosion Form is Different, But Same as that Case three years ago," Inspector Megure's Face was also heavy, "The Possibility that The Other Party is committing Crime targeting the Police is very High! Search Personnel must remember this Point, be cautious and swift in…"
Conan was Doubtful, the Case three years ago?
"Inspector Megure, not like the Criminal from that Case three years ago."
Inspector Megure heard a somewhat familiar Sound coming from behind him, turned his head with a sullen Face. He wanted to see which Brat dared to forcibly Interrupt his Words and Say such a Definite Words. If the Criminal was really the Criminal from the Case three years ago, then paying Attention to Safety during the Search was absolutely necessary… Huh?
After Seeing clearly the person behind him, Inspector Megure was Stunned by Surprise, then his Face became wooden, "Brother Chi, Unexpectedly you are also here."
Did this kid know that his Plague God Degree was about to surpass his Teacher!
However, Discovering that it was Chi Feichei who Interrupted his Words and spoke so Definitely, he suddenly wasn't surprised anymore.
"Inspector Megure." Chi Feichei Calmly Greeted.
"Cough, Brother Chi," Inspector Megure put away the Speechless Teasing in his Heart, and asked with a serious Face, "Why do You Say it doesn't seem like the Criminal from the Case three years ago? How do you know about the Bombing Case three years ago…"
"Speaking of three years ago, Explosion, Crime targeting the Police, I can only Think of the Bombing Case on November 7th three years ago," Chi Feichei Look Towards the Explosion Site, "From some Reports, The Other Party is a person who is very skilled in Manufacturing and Utilizing Bomb, and holds Resentment against the Police, but looking at the Explosion Trace here, there are many Explosion Residues, In Other Words, the Bomb Manufacturing is not very good."
Silently adding in his Heart, In Other Words, the kind Mass-produced by Munitions dealers…
"And the Extent of the Explosion is actually not enough to kill Police Officer Takagi, Even If he is sitting in the Car or Standing in the Vicinity of the Car, at most it is just the Extent of Injury, the Probability of Death is very low," Chi Feichei continued, "Either the Criminal doesn't Understand Bomb, or he doesn't Intend to Murder, No Matter which Possibility, it doesn't match the Characteristics of the Thug three years ago. Even If it is Tease Police, he Should leave some Note to Stimulate and Tease the Police. The Criminal three years ago Should have a very strong Desire to Provoke the Police."
Furthermore, the Criminal three years ago made the Characters display on the LCD Screen, using Electronic Detonator, while this Explosion, the Criminal used Electric Igniter, Should be Electric Detonating Cap, doesn't seem like a Explosive Bomber with Pursuit would choose… Cough, these don't need to be said, and he can't Performance too much Knowledge about Bomb Manufacturing.
Conan Lower Head Pondered.
This time's Criminal imitates the Criminal three years ago to send Fax to the Metropolitan Police Department, but doesn't Intend to Murder or doesn't Understand Bomb/the Extent of Explosion is not enough to kill people, and there is the Videotape that was taken away, the disappeared Postal Vehicle…
Could it be that he wants to Intentionally attract Police Attention, and then do other Things?
Uh-huh, need to Confirm A Bit.
"Is that so?" Inspector Megure Look Towards the Police who were Investigating at the Explosion Site.
The Other Party sweated, "This needs the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Team to Judgment, but they haven't Come Over, Unless a Bomb is found and needs to be Dismantled, they will be contacted to bring Bomb Disposal Tools to arrive."
"Hmm…" Inspector Megure Thought for a while, and Made a Decision, "Everyone should still be Careful, No Matter Whether it is that Criminal or not, I don't Hope anyone will be Injured in the Search!"
Conan came back to his senses, looked up and Acting Cute, "Inspector Megure…"
Under Conan's Proposal, the Police found Equipment that could play Videotape and Checked the Video Recording that Mitsuhiko had recorded Before.
In the early stage, it was filming the Onlookers. Mitsuhiko was not a Professional Photographer, just a Child, the Lens was always shaking, very shaky.
Afterwards, it was the Line of Sight that suddenly became High after climbing onto the Mailbox, Sato Miwako approaching, and Chi Feichei rushing Over.
Due To Mitsuhiko forgetting to turn off the Camera, the Video Recording behind had been filming Mitsuhiko's Foot for a Period of Time.
Then, it was Wataru Takagi who arrived.
Even the scene where Sato Miwako Reached Out to hit Wataru Takagi, and Chi Feichei, who was in a daze, Suddenly Reached Out and Grabbed her Wrist, was also filmed.
Inspector Megure's Mouth twitched slightly. Looking at the Video Recording, Chi Feichei didn't even lift his Eyes, seemingly just hearing the Sound of Airflow being driven beside him when he was in a daze, and accurately and quickly Reached Out and Grabbed Sato's Wrist. This Ability… It's a Pity not to be a Police Officer.
Other Police Officers stared at Wataru Takagi gloomily.
What exactly did this kid do to Officer Sato to make her so angry?
Could it be that he secretly took Advantage of Officer Sato when they didn't know?
Wataru Takagi: "…"
The Killing Intent around him is so heavy.
He seems to have done Nothing…
The Video Recording continued to play. During the Period, someone was filmed approaching the Car Wataru Takagi parked, but they just passed by, with no Abnormal Behavior, and there was no Time to put Bomb under the Car at all.
After that, the Lens filmed Sato Miwako and Chi Feichei Standing in front of the Mailbox and talking, and Haibara Ai Standing Aside as a Background Wall.
Next, it was the Process of the Lens turning away, then turning back, then turning away, then turning back…
Mitsuhiko Scratched Head, and explained with a dry Smile, "That… Because I Discovered Officer Sato was chatting with Brother Chi behind, I was A Bit Curious, so I kept turning sideways to Look…"
He just wanted to Gossip A Bit and secretly Look, Unexpectedly the Video Recording completely exposed his Intention in Chi Feichei's Eyes.
Finally, the Video Recording ended when Sato Miwako Smilingly patted Chi Feichei's Shoulder.
Inspector Megure had Black Lines on Forehead, "Seems like Nothing special was filmed…"
The one who appeared the most was Sato and Chi Feichei, and there were very few Passersby.
The Atmosphere was heavy.
A Group of Police Officers completely darkened their Faces.
Nothing special? No, no, it Should be said that they really filmed something special and very Important!
A man and a woman, Standing beside the Street Corner Mailbox and talking softly, the man easily smoking a Cigarette, and the woman also frequently Smilingly interacting… Heartbreaking!
What's even more Heartbreaking is that Sato seems to be more proactive!
Bastard! Too Bastard! Don't they know that there are few wolves and little Meat in their Metropolitan Police Department? Huh? It's not easy to have a Girl, and someone is actually abducting their Beautiful Girl outwards, this is simply unforgivable!
One after another, gazes full of Killing Intent moved towards Chi Feichei who was quietly sitting on the Chair over There.
Wataru Takagi Standing in the middle of the Crowd: "…"
Terrifying low Air Pressure.
Chi Feichei lifted his Eyes to Look at a Group of Police Officers, his Gaze was Calm.
This Group of Police Officers are too idle, right? They are still Jealousy at this Time, isn't it just Saying a few Words to their Police Flower?
Endure it, don't Return.
Facing the Malicious Gaze at this Time, you must not Return Malicious Gaze, Otherwise, once the Killing Intent is revealed, you will definitely be Suspected by the Police.
A Group of Police Officers: "…"
Cannot retreat, they must be strong… strong…
Uh, this kid's Gaze is so Calm that it's A Bit Ominous, not to mention the Question of whether his Heart is hairy when being Stared at, he always feels that he can't be frightened.
As Police Officers, if Fierce Gaze can't frighten, then they can't hit people, right? That's not possible!
A Group of Police Officers silently moved their Gaze away, feeling grief and indignation in their Hearts.
Damn it! That kid is obviously sitting, looking up at their Group Standing, but he still has a calm and high-and-mighty Appearance, Originally he Should be angry and unwilling, but being Stared at like that, there is actually a little Pressure in his Heart…
The Eye Contact of Gazes Subsided in an instant, Wataru Takagi suddenly had A Bit of admiration, and silently Pondered, If it was him…
"Takagi," a male Police Officer leaned close to Wataru Takagi's ear, and said hatefully, "Can you kid be more competitive!"
Others nodded in unison, anyone in their Metropolitan Police Department is fine, but Officer Sato must not be abducted by outsiders!
Especially Chi Feichei!
Chi Feichei is an old customer of the Crime Scene. They more or less have some Knowledge of his Family Background. What if Sato Resignation and leaves? What if Sato Follows him abroad in the future?
It's not easy for their Metropolitan Police Department to have a Beautiful Police Officer, this is face, face!
"I…" Wataru Takagi was speechless.
Facing a Group of Seniors, he can't be strong.
Moreover, when he and Sato are close, this Group of people are unwilling, and now they have an Appearance of blaming him for not doing enough, what exactly do this Group of people want…
Grievance.
"Hello?" Inspector Megure suddenly received a Phone Call, "I am Megure… What? Another Bomb Explosion? This time it's the Phone Booth in front of Beika Municipal Park? Is anyone Injured? … Okay, I Understand… Can it be Confirmed that it is the Same Bomb? Uh-huh…"
Hanging up the Phone Call, Inspector Megure said to the others, "Another Explosion has occurred. Judging from the Bomb Residues and Crime Scene Trace, it is the Same Bomb, the Criminal Should be the Same person. The Explosion Location is at the Phone Booth in front of Beika Municipal Park. Takagi, I remember from the Crossroads where the first Explosion occurred to that Phone Booth…"
Wataru Takagi hurriedly turned his Head, "Correct, it's the Parade Route of the Tokyo Spirits Team!"
"In Other Words, the Suspect's Goal is not our Police…" Sato Miwako walked into the House from the Entrance, with a Serious Expression, "Just can't stand the high-profile Behavior of the Tokyo Spirits Team, and is carrying out Provocation!"
Wataru Takagi turned his Head, "Sa-Sato…"
"No," Chi Feichei said, "Maybe it's a Hijacker who wants to Robbery the Post Office."
"Robbery the Post Office…" Inspector Megure turned his Head to Look at Chi Feichei with a Stunned Face.
"Hijacker?" Sato Miwako was also at a loss.
Wait, wait, what does the Bombing Case have to do with the Hijacker?
"Then do you want to Confirm A Bit?" Conan actively Proposed.
He also Understood.
The Route of the Postal Vehicle to the Post Office is completely opposite to the Parade Group. If the Police Follow the Parade Group, they will keep Following to Beihu Town, further and further away from the Post Office.
Then it is Possible that the Hijacker Intentionally Disguise as the Criminal from the Bombing Case three years ago, so that the Police gather in the Place where the Parade Group will pass, and Manufacture two Explosions, so that the Police mistakenly Think that it is someone who wants to Retaliation against the Tokyo Spirits Team, and be Led Away, while the Hijacker takes the Opportunity to Robbery the Cash temporarily gathered by the Post Office every month. Today is Holiday, there are not many Staff in the Post Office, and it is Indeed a good Timing for Robbery.
And the Robbery Method Should be to Hold Hostage that Postal Vehicle that did not come to collect the mail on Time, Disguise as a Tool Person from the Post Office, trick open the Main Gate, and Directly Control the few Staff to carry out Robbery…
Maybe, they will also Hold Hostage after the Robbery, detain other people, continue to Utilize the Postal Vehicle, and take the Cash to escape. When the Police Discover and rush Over, it will be too late.
According to this Deduction, many Suspicious Points can be explained.
The disappeared Postal Vehicle was Held Hostage by the Hijacker. The Explosion doesn't Care About Injury and Death, because this is just a Means to attract the Police's Attention. The Thug doesn't Care About the Explosion at all.
And The Other Party took away Mitsuhiko's Camera, not because he filmed something, but because he didn't film the Postal Vehicle that Should have come to collect the mail.
Of Course, now we still need to Confirm whether the Postal Vehicle really did not go to collect mail according to the collection Route, and where exactly it is…
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 732: What a Sad Thing
Inspector Megure directed a group of Police Officer to check the Collection Time of the Mailbox.
"Inspector Megure, the Collection Time for this Mailbox here is 2:45 PM, and the Letter has not been collected!"
"Inspector Megure, we here..."
…
After checking all the Mailbox nearby, Inspector Megure put away the Intercom and turned his Head, "So, what exactly is going on? It's about time you told us, Old Chi... Huh?"
Where's the person? Where did the person go?
Conan turned his Head and Looked, Black Lines on Forehead.
That Hissashi actually ran off with Haibara!
Is this because he was sure that he had seen through the Truth and just left it alone? Wanting him to impersonate someone else for Reasoning again?
Vein popped on Inspector Megure's Head, his Emotion was about to Explode.
They ran all over the Map, and Confirm everything, now who is going to tell him what exactly is the Reason?
"Cough..." Conan hesitated for a A Bit, but still hid behind Doctor Agasa, using Voice Changer to make Doctor Agasa's Sound, "Then let me explain the Situation, Inspector Megure!"
He originally wanted to have Inspector Megure take people to find Hissashi, but Realized that it would be Better for the Police to Ambush early, so it would be Better for him to explain it.
Moreover, if they really brought Hissashi back for Deduction, he would still have to go to take a Written Statement afterwards, so it would be Better for him to be more conscious, anyway, he doesn't hate Reasoning...
Suddenly feeling annoyed, Hissashi that Fellow definitely calculated that he would Deduce, that's why he ran away so decisively!
…
Across the Street on the Sidewalk, Haibara Ai stood at the Entrance of a Stationery Store, Discovery that there was a recent Fashion Show Magazine in the Vending Machine, and the cover also mentioned Field Group. She Step Forward to put in a Coin and bought a Magazine to flip through.
The new Fashion Color Scheme of Field Group all used the 'Morandi Color Scheme' proposed by Chi Feichei last time, and the name 'Morandi Color Scheme' also formally entered the Public Line of Sight.
Among the Women's Clothing, in addition to the Daily Routine Style of clothing, there were also Long Dress in the Style of the Plantagenet Dynasty in Britain. Hoop Skirt and Corset were not yet available in that period. Compared with the gorgeous Style of the Renaissance Era, the Long Dress Style was more fresh and simple.
Exquisite Embroidery, simple Streamlined Cut, coupled with elegant and atmospheric but not ostentatious Color, it looked pleasing to the Eye no matter how you Looked at it.
In addition, there were also high-waisted Long Dress popular in Britain during World War I and World War II, and some Morandi Color Scheme Male Formal Wear, Trench Coat...
Haibara Ai flipped through two more pages and Discovery that the following were Fashion Shows of other Companies. She felt a little Regret that Field Group did not have Children's wear. Just as she closed the Magazine, a Notebook still in Plastic Packaging suddenly appeared in her Line of Sight.
The cover of the Notebook was printed with a Blue-Purple starry sky, which looked very Dreamy, with a Combination Lock on one side.
Haibara Ai was stunned for a moment, and recalled that she had just used 'Girl's Diary' as a Reason to prevent Chi Feichei from Looking at the Detective Handbook Records. She took the Notebook, looked up and asked Chi Feichei, "You came here just to buy this?"
Chi Feichei Turn Around and walked towards the Street Corner, "Anyway, Conan and the others will handle it over there."
Although he does not support writing Diary, which will expose Self Secret, State of Mind, and Weaknesses, even the Best Lock can't stop people who want to See it, but Little Girl, it's good to do something Maiden-like.
Haibara Ai hugged the Magazine and Notebook tightly and followed, "That... is Field Group not Considering releasing Children's wear?"
Saying Thank You seems too pretentious and she couldn't Say it, but... Thinking that she can only wear Children's wear, it's really a sad thing.
"If Mother doesn't release it, then she hasn't Considered it," Chi Feichei Looked towards the Magazine in Haibara Ai's Hand, "She Said to me that she will keep the same Style Children's wear for you for everything available at the Fashion Show. If you like anything, just Call her and tell her, and it will be delivered in a Few Days."
Haibara Ai suddenly Discovery that she really doesn't need to Consider not being able to buy pretty Little Dress.
If it weren't for her current Age being unsuitable for Makeup, it is estimated that Makeup could also be taken care of.
Moreover, not releasing it to the Public, but only keeping it for her, is that unique?
"Isn't this a bit hateful?" Haibara Ai's Gaze drifted towards the Street, "It's not that I don't like it, but I just think it's a Pity to give up the Children's wear Market."
"Don't have Psychological Pressure, it's Just Action to modify the Diagram and have people make it, it doesn't take much Time," Chi Feichei Said.
Haibara Ai: "..."
A good 'unique', when Chi Feichei Said it like this, it was Like Fish in a Seafood Store, a Grab of a large amount.
Realist are really not Romantic.
Chi Feichei entered the Shopping Mall and ordered a Safe. The delivery Address filled in was Doctor Agasa's House.
Haibara Ai: "..."
Safe? Shouldn't it be what she Think?
"The Lock on the Diary is not Safety," Chi Feichei walked towards the Escalator, "After writing, Lock it, and then put it in the Safe."
Indeed...
Haibara Ai had Black Lines on Forehead, and Test, "Do you Think the World is very Unsafe?"
"Do you Think your Diary doesn't need to be more Safety?" Chi Feichei asked calmly.
Haibara Ai was suddenly Speechless, watching Chi Feichei go to the 3rd Floor of the Shopping Mall, and ordered a Piano again. The delivery Address filled in was also Doctor Agasa's House.
…
The next day.
In the Corner of the Living Room of Doctor Agasa's House, a Piano was placed, and a pile of Boxes was piled up in the middle. Even the Fish Tank that Haibara Ai bought for Goldfish was forced to move to the Wall Side.
Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko were almost Crazy with Joy from unpacking Boxes.
"Wow! What a big Puzzle."
"It should take a long Time to complete the Puzzle, right?"
"Then let's Start Doing it together!"
"There is a Arcade Machine in this Box... Hey! Hassashi, don't snatch it, okay, let you play first!"
"I have a Telescope here!"
"And this Box, let me See... all Hair Clip, Ayumi, it should be for you and Haibara!"
"No," Haibara Ai leaned against the Wall Side with her Arms folded, Glanced at the extremely Little Girl Style Hair Clip, and moved her Line of Sight away, "That was what Brother Chi and I picked for Ayumi yesterday, I don't like Hair Clip."
"Thank you, Ai!" Ayumi smiled sweetly, Looked towards Chi Feichei who was tuning the Piano, "And Brother Ike, Thank You!"
Haibara Ai forcibly endured the idea of taking out her Notebook to Record, this smile is full marks.
Ayumi: "..."
Haibara's Gaze has become very Weird again.
Doctor Agasa smiled and watched the three Children continue to unpack Boxes, "The entire Living Room has become full of Vitality!"
Conan laughed dryly aside, "This place is almost becoming a Children's Playground, of course it's full of Vitality."
After Chi Feichei ran away yesterday, how many Things did he buy...
"Conan!" Genta, who was sitting in the pile of Boxes, shouted and Throw the Soccer Ball in his Hand to Conan, "Soccer Ball, this must be yours!"
Conan Catch the Soccer Ball, and was stunned for a moment, then Turn Head to Look at Chi Feichei, "Uh, Thank You Brother Ike..."
Chi Feichei was still tuning the Piano, waved his Hand, indicating that Conan should play aside and not disturb him.
Conan was Speechless for a moment, and then joined the unpacking Boxes team with great interest.
Before, he Thought that the inside were all Toys to coax Children, but Unexpectedly there would be Soccer Ball for him, which made him Curious whether he would unpack other Surprise.
"This Box contains a Writing Tablet," Mitsuhiko sat in the middle of the Boxes and took out a Writing Tablet, "In the future, put it at Doctor Agasa's place and use it as Things for our Junior Detective League to organize Clue, how about it?"
"Okay," Ayumi suggested with a smile, "Things here that don't know how to distribute can also be used as public items for the Junior Detective League."
Genta was busy unpacking Boxes and took out Things from the Box, "What's in this Box... two sets of Second Year of High School Exam Questions? Why are there such Things?"
"Pfft," Conan couldn't help it, hugged his Belly and laughed out loud, "Hahaha..."
After a while, there will be National Mock Test in High School, no need to Think, it must be for Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko.
Sending Exam Questions as a Gift is simply too Nuclear, he can't even imagine how wonderful Suzuki Sonoko's Expression will be when she receives the Gift.
Haibara Ai Looked at a certain Famous Detective sitting on the Ground and Smilingly Like a Child, her Eyes were full of Disdain, but Looking at the lively Situation, the corners of her mouth still curled up slightly.
Chi Feichei tuned the Sound, and when he Turn Head, he Saw a group of Kid happily unpacking Boxes. It seems that not only Cats are interested in Boxes, but Humans are also the Same, "Ai, okay, Come Over and try it."
Haibara Ai Step Forward and sat down, raised her Hand and Test the Sound.
"Weren't you Intention to learn Combat before?" Chi Feichei asked, "Haven't Considered it yet?"
"I want to insist on Physical Training first..." Haibara Ai hesitated a little. She Intention to learn Combat before, but her Physical Fitness was too poor, and with a Child's Body, even if she encountered Danger, it would be much more difficult to defeat her Opponent. There is no need to rush to spend too much Time to learn, spend some Time every day to improve her Physical Fitness first, "At least improve Physical Fitness a little bit, what do you want to hear?"
"It's okay to lay a good Physical Foundation first," Once Seeing Haibara Ai's Sitting Posture and the Action of her Hand when Testing the Sound, Chi Feichei knew that Haibara Ai had a Foundation, but he still Intentionally picked a song Suitable for Children to play, "Für Elise."
Haibara Ai: "..."
Brother Hassashi clearly knows what her Christian Name is, is this secretly teasing her?
When Haibara Ai played the Piano, Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi, who were noisy before, stopped and listened quietly before running to the Piano after listening.
"So amazing!"
"Haibara, you play really well!"
"You guys play." Chi Feichei let the Piano to a group of Children to toss around, and sat on the Sofa to Look at his Mobile Phone.
Having Discretion, otherwise why would he Like this group of Kid?
There are two new Emails in the Email.
One Email was sent by the Manager of Training Base No. 0331, stating that Ubu Saika Said she wanted to See him, but there was nothing that she had to See him for.
Two Days Ago, which was the Day he went to Old Sawada Family Residence, and the Day before that Day, Ubu Saika also proposed to See him.
This Frequency is very abnormal...
After Thinking for a while, Chi Feichei Reply:
[Prepare a Mobile Phone that can Eavesdropping, tell her my Email Address, and tell her the Confidentiality Rules of the Organization again, let her Packing Up, and go to Uehara Middle School Principal's Office to handle Enrollment Procedures herself Tomorrow. Tell her to get along well with her Classmate, don't send me Emails casually if there is nothing Matter, Waiting for Contact. ——Raki]
Ubu Saika, the Secretary of a Councilor in Koshigaya City, is a Member of the Organization.
That Fellow used the Intelligence and Opportunity provided by the Organization to climb up, and also used the Method of 'coming up with Idea' to gain the Councilor's Trust, and even faintly had a Stance of controlling the Councilor in reverse, Seemingly expressing to the Councilor: Listen to me, I guarantee you Promotion and Fortune! Source of Intelligence? You don't need to care, I won't Say it, my Purpose? Help each other, you get promoted and I get promoted too.
That Councilor tasted the Benefit a few times and slowly Falling, and that Outer Member was very smart, never Arrogance, Just Like a Devotion Advisor, coaxing the Councilor to Obedience, and is considered a very Important and very useful Chess Piece in the Organization.
The Reason why he chose Uehara Middle School, in addition to Environmental Factors, is also Because there is a Channel to send Ubu Saika in.
The Hometown of the Principal of Uehara Middle School is in Koshigaya City, and his Wife also operates a not small Company in Koshigaya City. It is enough for that Outer Member to use his Identity to Say something, and if he mentions the Identity of the Councilor behind him, the Principal will be more willing to give Face.
With the Principal coming forward, arranging a Student to enroll is not a Trouble.
That Outer Member secretly transferred Ubu Saika's Enrollment Data two Days Ago. Probably even Ubu Saika's Mother may not know about it. He also Said to the Principal of Uehara Middle School in Advance, let that Outer Member Contact him, and then Ubu Saika can go directly to handle Enrollment Procedures Tomorrow.
[Understand!]
After getting the Reply, Chi Feichei clicked on the Email sent to him by The Boss again.
[Raki, handle the Backlogged Intelligence, Cooperate with Gin's Action.]
Chi Feichei did not Reply.
Now that Conan and Haibara Ai are here, he would be stupid to 'beep beep beep' to press out The Boss's Email Address...
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 733: What Date is Tomorrow?
It was night.
Beihu Town Training Ground No. 119.
In the brightly lit Living Room, Chi Feichei and Gin each had a cup of tea, a pack of cigarettes, a computer, and were going through the Backlogged Intelligence.
Chi Feichei stared at the computer, flipping through the Intelligence one by one.
Previously, because of the investigation into Intelligence Personnel, many Intelligence Personnel and Operative were implicated.
Although Rum was taking care of the Operational Funds and Reward, and the Organization also had other income channels, so they wouldn't run out of Funds just by resting for a while, the Money Task Intelligence had to be arranged quickly.
Some Intelligence had a very strong Statute of Limitations, Action before a certain Period could obtain the maximum Benefit, delaying it might affect the Benefit, and more seriously, if something Accident happened to the Target after the Investigation was completed, there would be no Money to be made.
He and Gin had to sort out the Intelligence, just like picking Bounty, picking out the Money Task with 'high cost-performance ratio and approaching Statute of Limitations', then find a Breakthrough, and get the Money in the fastest Speed and least exposed Method.
The Extortion Target targeted by the Organization were mostly Presidents of the Finance industry and real estate industry.
Among these People, some did things really carelessly, and their Money came from unclean sources, so don't blame others for Seizeing Leverage for Extortion.
There was also a Portion of People who were Members of Violent Gang, these kinds of People were not easy to Threaten, and they were not afraid of their Actions being known by the Police at all, But everyone has 'Fear'ful Things.
Kidnapping this kind of Matter is Time Consumption and involves a lot of contact with the Target, they don't do it, anyway, Intelligence Personnel have already Seized Weakness, Recorded or preserved evidence, and Extortion is enough.
The Two People quickly Looked through the Intelligence once, Marked the Money Task worth doing, and started to filter and sort again.
"2, Ten billion Japanese Yen, But the Intelligence is a Bit vague," Gin lit a Cigarette, "Give it up, no need to go for now, wait until the Intelligence is clear!"
"6, Judging from the Investigation Intelligence, the Target is very cunning, the Surveillance from Recently was withdrawn, and Possible Accidents may occur," Chi Feichei Stared at the Screen, "Wait for the People who go back to Surveillance to Confirm the Situation before making a decision."
"7, The Target has already been arrested by the Police, No Need to go."
"9, There is no Suitable Opportunity at present, wait for a while."
"10, Just find someone to send the Things over and you can get the Money, it doesn't Matter if it fails."
"11..." Chi Feichei flipped through it, "The ones behind are basically not that Important, and not very Troublesome, let Others go."
"Then there are 5 left..." Gin pondered for a moment, "Let's Go Together for Intelligence No. 1, and each of us take two of the remaining ones, support each other, if needed you can contact Korn, don't run over there alone."
Chi Feichei 'Uh-huh'ed, Intelligence No. 1 had high Profit, But it was also Troublesome, Guess they would have to pull the Operative out for a walk again.
The specific Action Time and Action Method, the Two People would not Decided In Advance, they would make a Plan in their Heart, and at most formally inform Others other than themselves before the Action on the Day.
The Actions after sorting No. 10 are just Transactions of exchanging Things for Money, with not much Risk, and will be thrown to Others to do.
They still have to Stare at the whole Process of progress, and pay attention to Whether the Transaction is successful.
If it is successful, Stare at the Money being credited.
If it fails, they also need to be clear about Why it failed, whether the Person is dead or alive, where the Problem lies, Whether the existence of the Organization is exposed, and Whether the Person needs to be Silencinged.
In short, Transactions can fail, can be given up, But the Organization cannot be exposed.
Generally, the Probability of failure for low-Risk Task is very low, But Tequila in the past was in this kind of Task, going to the Game Company alone and being Exploded to Death.
For the Portion of Staring at the progress, another Portion can be assigned to Vodka and Yingqu Yan Nan to be responsible for Action Connection and understanding the Action Situation, and they can Handle the rest.
Gin Considered someone's Illness and Personnel, and took three-quarters himself, and the rest belonged to Chi Feichei.
Chi Feichei also had no Opinion, and sorted out the Intelligence again, he wouldn't Think the Pressure was small, But Personnel was indeed a Problem, and Actions could not be too frequent or Time too fixed, so as not to be figured out the Pattern.
When the Weekend comes, he will also participate in the premiere of the Movie with THK Company.
Listening to the Children Say, the Weekend is three days later, then Tomorrow... Tomorrow...
"What Date is Tomorrow?" Chi Feichei suddenly Asked.
Gin glanced sideways: "..."
Was it a Bit too much for him to let Raki, this Patient who couldn't even distinguish the Date, schedule the Action schedule?
Hissashi immediately Reported the Date, "Tomorrow is September 17th, the day after tomorrow is November 4th, then October 13th, then Weekend, which is September 27th, after Weekend is November 1st..."
It is always ready!
"September 17th." Gin couldn't hear Hissashi's Sound, and also Answered, then Silence, and continued to send Email to contact People and Arrange Actions.
He originally wanted to Say 'or else forget it, let's run Task Together', But proud People would hate being poked at their sore Point by Others, not being able to distinguish the Date and affecting the Action Arrangement, for Raki, it was definitely a sore Point.
If Raki Feels insulted, maybe one day he will put some Poison in his Food...
He Don't Want To have to spare a little Intentions every day to Defend against Chi Feichei, these Actions are not Troublesome, Should... Probably... Maybe nothing will happen.
Next, the Two People did not Communicate again, occasionally sending Emails and waiting for Emails, and Arranged all the Matters.
After more than ten minutes of Silence, Gin finished sending the Email, and then Spoke Out and Asked, "Are you really Intentioning to let Ubu out?"
"I want to Confirm her Situation." Chi Feichei Said.
He Understood Gin's Concerns - if someone left Training Base No. 0331 for Freedom Activity, it was very Possible that the Base Location would be leaked.
According to the Rules in the past, People could only be released after the Training Period ended, once someone left, they would have to Consider abandoning Training Base No. 0331 and transferring all People to other Places.
Gin raised his Eyes to Look at Chi Feichei, "Did Ubu have a Problem?"
"Not exactly a Problem," Chi Feichei also finished sending the Email, at least everyone who needed to be contacted today had been contacted, and Spoke Out his Speculation, "Stockholm Syndrome."
The proposal of Stockholm Syndrome originated from a Hijacking case in Stockholm in 1973.
Two Hijacker controlled four Bank Employee, and after a 130 Hour standoff with the Police, they gave up the Crime and released the Hostage, But those four Employees did not blame the Kidnapper at all, and Spoke for the Kidnapper in the Court, and one of the Employees even married the Kidnapper during the Kidnapper's imprisonment.
After this Matter was Reported, it aroused the Interest of some Researchers, and according to Investigations, Prisoners in Concentration Camp and Prisoner of War may develop Stockholm Syndrome.
Stockholm Syndrome, also known as Hostage Syndrome, simply put, it means that the victim not only does not blame the perpetrator, But instead develops Good Impression, dependence, worship and other Emotion towards the perpetrator, even helps the perpetrator, and even regards the rescuer as an Enemy.
When facing setbacks, the Defense Mechanism of Human Mentality will transform adverse stimuli into benign stimuli to overcome difficulties.
Common Defense Mechanism include Rationalization, Repression, Selective Forgetting, etc. Last Time Mouri Ran's amnesia was the Defense Mechanism that made her Selective Forgetting, and Stockholm Syndrome is the Performance of 'Rationalization'.
In order to avoid greater Mentality Pain, victims repeatedly tell themselves that this is not the most miserable, and the Anxiety and Fear in their Heart will be reduced, and if they get some small favors that are considered 'good for them', it will strengthen the Rationalization Mentality, coupled with Humanity's instinct to worship the strong, Mentality passivity, Barrier Layer and other factors, Stockholm Syndrome is produced.
The occurrence of Stockholm Syndrome has certain Conditions:
1: The Hostage truly Feels that the perpetrator will Threaten their Survival, shrouded in unease.
2: In the Process of being held hostage, the Hostage Feels the Good or Favor given by the perpetrator.
3: Isolated from the outside world, unable to obtain Information from the outside world, and can only accept the perpetrator's one-sided View.
4: The Hostage firmly believes that they cannot escape.
Looking at it this way, Ubu Saika is indeed in an Environment of Barrier Layer, Threatening physical and mental Safety, making her Fearful and uneasy and unable to escape, and Should also Feel 'Favor', it is obvious that her own Predicament is different from Others.
And People who are emotionally easy to rely on Others and easily moved are more likely to develop Stockholm Syndrome.
The Others who received Training at Training Base No. 0331 are all Adult, with Extreme Mentality and paranoia, and completely unable to Consider from the Mentality of Normal Person, so there have been no similar examples before.
But Ubu Saika herself is a half-grown Child, judging from those deliberately rebellious History, she Cares About the Feelings of her Relatives very much, and also longs to get Attention and Care from Others.
If she was Indifference herself, then she would not choose to use rebellion to Test and try to obtain Care, But would directly Ignore it, Just Like the State of Original Consciousness in the later Period.
He had previously Discovered Ubu Saika's Nature beneath her flamboyant and willful exterior, and felt that the girl was not Suitable for the Organization, Unexpectedly the Situation had some Transformation.
He can be sure that Initially Ubu Saika wanted to join the Organization, definitely not Because she had any different Affection for him, she was Just Curious about him, and because of her Personality, she kept pestering him to Talk, that girl Just Thought it was 'very cool', had the Intentions of 'continuing to use rebellion to Retaliation against her Mother and adoptive father', and was also Confidence that she could Handle it, so she clamored to join the Organization.
When she first arrived at Training Base No. 0331, Ubu Saika also clamored to see him, that was Just Because she arrived in a strange Environment, and found that someone was under close Surveillance, she wanted to alleviate the unease in her Heart by meeting a Person she knew and had contacted.
When Ubu Saika witnessed Others Death with her own Eyes, the Bottom line of her Heart's tolerance for Fear Should have been broken through, at that Time, Ubu Saika no longer Thought about contacting him, she only had one Intentions -
Escape!
After attempting to escape and failing, being deceived, and witnessing the Cruelty of the 'Hunting Test', Ubu Saika was Probably in Despair, and no longer Thought that she could escape.
And at that Time, he came forward to let Ubu Saika move to another Floor to live, let Ubu Saika temporarily get rid of the more Repression Environment, and promised to let Ubu Saika go out to school, in order to let Ubu Saika meet Kurahashi Kenichi Before and heal the Injury left when escaping, he also asked the Manager to send Ubu Saika a bottle of Wound Medicine.
It was also After they left Training Base No. 0331 and the 'catching Rat' Action ended, that Ubu Saika began to frequently propose to see him, But there was no Reason why she had to meet.
The sense of dependence shown by Ubu Saika was very abnormal, the contact between the Two People was far from reaching the Degree that Ubu Saika wanted to see him at most every other Day.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 734 Can I Fight Back?
"Can you confirm it?" Gin asked.
"No," Chi Feichei said, "So I need to confirm it."
Something doesn't make sense. He hasn't been in contact with Ubu Saika during this time. He's not sure if this can cause Stockholm Syndrome.
It's also possible that Ubu Saika is faking it to lower his vigilance and escape the Organization's control.
Moreover, even if Ubu Saika really has Stockholm Syndrome, he needs to confirm whether the 'perpetrator' Ubu Saika identifies, that is, the object of Ubu Saika's dependence, is the Organization or him.
"Why are you suddenly paying attention to her?" Gin shifted his gaze back to the computer, shut it down, and prepared to leave. "Have you thought about the Arrangement?"
"Enough people who can help confirm Intelligence and Safety without being noticed..."
In the next two days, students went to School, office workers went to work, and criminals committed crimes.
...
[October 13th, Sunny...]
In the Classroom of Class 3-A, Uehara Middle School, Ubu Saika sat in the Seat by the Window, her Pen in hand hovering over the open Notebook, sketching aimlessly without leaving any marks.
The Instructor in the Base, let's call him Instructor for now, the Man who taught her Reconnaissance told her to delete Emails after reading them. Also, Call Logs, Text Message records, and Photo Albums should be kept clean. Writing a Diary is even more foolish behavior that only exposes your Secrets to gain a little Psychological Comfort. If the existence of the Organization is exposed, bear the Consequences yourself.
What she fears most now is hearing 'bear the Consequences yourself', which Means being chased to death by a Group of madmen in a circle from which there is no escape.
Ban Tian Yu Zhi she saw in the Surveillance Room that Night, that kind of Predicament of having no way out and struggling to death, she could recall the entire Process even with her eyes closed. That was a more suffocating Feeling than witnessing someone die in front of her.
Fortunately, after that Night, she no longer had to stay with those madmen. Although the Guards in Management could play this 'cruel game' without changing their expressions, at least they still had reason and wouldn't Damage her.
She lived on the 3rd Floor, and only her Room was in use on the entire Corridor. She could have Meals delivered to her Room, and she could freely take the Elevator to any Floor other than the 1st Floor. No one bothered her, no one bullied her. She could even take the Guard to look around. She had even been to the 5th Floor, the Management Floor, and the Floor where Male Criminals lived. If someone attacked or spoke out to tease her, the Guards would block it for her.
She just needed to go to 'Course' every day and learn what she should learn.
Should she be Triumphant? She thought she had been Triumphant, taking the Guard to take a Circle around the Female Criminals. Originally, it was to let those Women who had laughed at her see who was worthy of being laughed at.
But after going there that time, she found it boring instead.
It was very strange. Overnight, she seemed to have been stripped away from that dangerous World. Although she could still remember the Fear and unease at that time, she felt that it was not so serious anymore.
She began to pay attention to the Organization's affairs. She heard that the Guards were just Outer Members, and even the Man in charge of the entire Base Management was just an Outer Member. That was a powerful and mysterious Organization. She sometimes thought that perhaps Cruelty was Normal for such a powerful and mysterious existence.
Compared to the deception and rudeness of those Criminals, the Guards were like Employees who stuck to their posts, going to and from work on time, not swearing, and not humiliating the Criminals inside. They were much better.
And that Person...
Raki.
Since that Night, she had been thinking of Raki more and more often.
She told Raki to remember to return the Necklace to her. Originally, after seeing the Darkness in the Base, she didn't have much Hope, but Unexpectedly, Raki returned both the Necklace and the Diary to her.
Raki let her leave those people's Residence, and Raki asked the Guards to ensure her Safety.
That Night, when she ran away, the Palm of her Hand was chafed by the Rope. Raki also had someone send her Medicine, and Said he would let her go to School, and he did.
Raki is a very good Person.
She began to repeatedly recall that Face with deep-set eyes and a calm, Indifference expression, whether it was the Front Face or the side Face half-hidden in the Shadow; recalled the Figure who calmly led people in when they first met; recalled the Black Plate nailed to the Wall; recalled his calm and assertive aura when he spoke; recalled the Display Screen illuminating his back when they met again later, his Face somewhat blurred in the dim light...
She began to miss him. Every time she finished the Course, she would repeatedly recall every bit of her contact with Raki. It was very short, but no matter how many times she recalled it, she didn't feel bored, only occasionally a little anxious, stemming from the anxiety of 'wanting to see him but not being able to'.
She no longer felt Fear and unease. Recalling Raki's hoarse Voice, she speculated whether he had been injured and would also worry and feel sorry for him.
Sometimes, when she thought of the tension she felt when Raki approached her that Night, her Heartbeat skipped a beat, and she didn't think it was due to Fear. It should be other Emotions.
Isn't this still not liking?
When she first entered Middle School, she secretly liked a Boy in her Class, who was sunny and generous, handsome and good at Exercise. But now, the Figure of that Boy and the Feeling he gave her had been completely washed away by another Person, becoming an insignificant Person like a Passersby.
Raki was like a Curse, possessing an attraction that other Male did not have. The longing and Affection in her Heart were deeper than ever before, like a volcano suppressing surging magma, sometimes so anxious that she wanted to burn away all reason.
This might not be liking, but an Emotion that she would not have easily recognized before.
Love.
Ubu Saika was not yet aware that she was constantly engaging in dangerous Self-suggestion, pushing herself into a Pitfall. She spun the Pen between her fingers, Staring at the Desktop in a daze, thinking over and over again, constantly finding Reasons enough to convince herself.
"Ubu Classmate!"
A shout came from beside her.
Ubu Saika regained her senses and looked up to see the Female Teacher walking to the Table.
The Female Teacher in her forties smiled and reminded her in a gentle Tone, "Don't be distracted in Class!"
"Sorry, Teacher," Ubu Saika Get Up and bowed very Politeness.
Although the Kind and peaceful expression of this Female Teacher always reminded her of Ban Tian Yu Zhi who had deceived her and wanted to kill her, although she used to be a Problem Student who liked to make things difficult for Teachers, Raki Said to her to get along well with Classmates, which must also include Teachers. And a Polite Person can easily gain some basic Good Impression, or... it's disgust.
Uehara Middle School is a Public School. Since her Stepfather is an Elementary School Teacher, she has heard too much about the advantages and disadvantages of Schools.
Public Schools enroll Students according to districts, and most of the Fee are paid by the state. Wealthy people will try to choose Private Schools with high Tuition Fee but better teaching resources and facilities, or enter National Schools with strict Exams. The rest will enter Public Schools and complete compulsory education step by step. Therefore, the Education and Environment of Public Schools are also uneven, and whether they are good or bad depends on the region.
If the residents in the surrounding area are people with Better Family Fortune, and the Student Backgrounds are similar, Guardians will restrain them, and bullying will rarely occur.
If there are Violent Gangs in the surrounding area, the public security was not good before, or the residents are mixed, the Environment in the School will be much more complex and chaotic. Compared to Private Schools being able to expel Students, Public Schools are not allowed to expel Students before compulsory education is completed, which also leads to many people who loaf around staying in School.
Uehara Middle School is inclined to the latter. The School she was in Kumamoto was okay. She was also a Problem Student and could not be bullied, but she learned about bullying and exclusion in similar Schools from her Biker Gang Friends in the past. When she first entered the Classroom yesterday, she had already felt the exclusion. When she did Self-introduction, there were two unfriendly Gazes Staring at her.
Now it is already the third grade of Middle School, and Class cliques have already formed. It is more difficult for an outsider like her to integrate. And the situation of upcoming higher education obviously will not bring study Pressure to people who are not going to higher education. She had a Premonition that the Days to come would definitely not be calm.
Of course, this does not prevent her from making a little change - don't cause Troublesome for Teachers, be more Polite and courteous, and while striving for Good Impression from other people and Teachers, she will not appear too childish.
Yes, it's just childish.
During this Time, she had been in contact with Raki who handled things calmly, the Polite Guards, and also those Criminals who were full of Thorns. Among those Criminals, very few people would 'act cool' like they used to. She suddenly Realized that her previous cursing behavior was really low-level.
"Just pay attention next time," the Female Teacher's Tone became gentler. "Please sit down."
"Tch..." From the Seat by the Corridor, a Girl deliberately made a low scoffing Sound that Ubu Saika could hear.
The Female Teacher turned her Head to look. She originally wanted to Say something, but she opened her mouth and still held back.
Ubu Saika didn't express her position either, and sat down obediently.
She herself also had points worth attacking. Early yesterday morning, she went to the Principal to go through Enrollment Procedures. She vaguely heard a hint of inner meaning. It seemed that a Councilor had come forward to say hello. The Organization also Arranged a Residence for her in the Vicinity, so Enrollment was naturally no Problem. Moreover, the Principal completely ignored her Short Hair dyed Red.
By the time School Dismissal yesterday evening, she heard discussions and Realize that this School did not restrict hair dyeing, but required Girls to not tie their ponytails when keeping Long Hair, the Reason being that exposing the back of the neck and Forehead would stimulate the sexual impulses of adolescent Boys. If it was Short Hair, it could not reach the shoulders either. Unfortunately, the ends of her Hair just reached her shoulders.
If someone wanted to bully her, she could Handle it, but she still needed to Ask about Raki's Intention...
This was the last Course before the last Weekend. At 3:40 PM, the Female Teacher announced the end of Class and the start of the Holiday, and also called Ubu Saika to the School Green Area for a talk.
"Ubu Classmate, are you still adapting to School Life?"
"Thank You for your concern, Teacher. I think the School is very good." Ubu Saika looked obedient.
The Female Teacher felt more relieved. At first, seeing Ubu Saika's flamboyant Red Hair, and being a well-connected person who had been greeted by superiors, she originally thought she would be a troublemaker. Unexpectedly, the little Girl in front of her had such a good Personality. "That's good. If Ozawa and the others bully you, then come and tell Teacher. If there's nothing else, go back. Happy Holiday."
"Happy Holiday, Teacher. Then I'll go back first." Ubu Saika bowed slightly to the Female Teacher, and while turning Around to walk towards the teaching building, she took out her Mobile Phone and lowered her head to send an Email.
[Raki, this is Ubu. Can you tell me, what exactly do you want me to do? If someone bullies me, can I Fight Back?]
"Ding-dong."
The Email was Replied to quickly:
[If you are bullied and don't Fight Back, are you a fool? --Raki]
Ubu Saika: "..."
She always felt that Raki's Meaning was: You still need to Ask me such a stupid question, are you a fool?
But it's good that she can Fight Back.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 735: Gaze from Chi Feichei
"Ding-dong."
Another new email arrived, surprising Ubu Saika slightly.
What was Raki's typing speed?
She opened it: [Tell them to listen to you from now on, and then wait for my contact. Don't cause deaths or severe disabilities. The minimum age of criminal responsibility in the National Assembly's "Juvenile Law" was changed from 16 to 14 in 2000, it won't protect you. ——Raki]
Ubu Saika walked towards the Stairwell Entrance, saw the email, and her lips twitched slightly as she Quietly Reply.
[Okay.]
So hardcore.
Deaths or severe disabilities and stuff, Raki really overestimated her, she never even thought about that...
She suspected that Raki's intention when he had someone tell her 'get along well with your classmates' wasn't to make her restrain her temper, but to say 'make those people have to get along well with you'.
That was simple then.
Afterwards, it was the arrival information for the bank account that the base Manager gave her, 200,000 Japanese Yen.
Ubu Saika sent an email in Doubt.
[I still have 210,000 Japanese Yen left here, I've bought everything I should buy, and it can last for a long time...]
[Damage compensation. ——Raki]
Ubu Saika: "..."
O-kay then...
...
Beika Town, Shinchi Special Cinema.
One of the locations chosen for the preview screening of THK Entertainment Company's new Reasoning Movie.
When Chi Feichei received Ubu Saika's email, he was at the ticket checking Counter, wearing a Baseball Cap, looking down and playing with his Mobile Phone.
Although for this World, it was adapted from a real Case, he still brought over the corresponding Movie title, "The Phantom of Baker Street".
Before the formal release, THK Company organized a sign-up Activity, randomly selecting a group of Audience members based on age, Gender, Life Preference, and Movie-watching habits to participate.
People who paid attention knew that this was adapted from the Case of Police Officer being shot This Year, but the extent of everyone's Knowledge of this Case was not as clear as those involved, like Chi Feichei. They only heard the News Media's broadcast of the Criminal's Identity afterwards. Many people were interested, and the preview screening model was still very novel at this time, so many people signed up to participate, and there were also many people who pulled strings to get in.
For example, the Junior Detective League and Mori Kogoro...
Chi Feichei directly refused to open Back Door access. He was worried that the Movie Theater, where someone had died before, would have another problem today.
The Reason given was also clear: he was worried that These People would not be able to make an accurate Judgment on the Film due to Emotion, and moreover, if the preview screening Outcome was not ideal, they might re-edit and Perfect the Details, Adjust the Pace, or even overturn the Script and reshoot. Everyone was so busy, it was better to wait and see the most ideal Version.
Those People were persuaded and didn't mention the preview screening Quota again to him.
"Buzz..."
Ubu Saika's new email: [Means, do I need to make up to 200,000 Japanese Yen?]
Chi Feichei didn't Reply again.
Nonsense, of course she had to make up to 200,000 Japanese Yen before anything else.
"Grandpa, you're really too much this time, why did you sign up for some preview screening..."
A complaining voice came from the Main Entrance, the Sound was very familiar.
Chi Feichei looked up.
Hissashi poked its Head out from his Collar.
As expected, it was that Kid, Kuroba Kaito!
Terai Kiichirou, Assistant was walking with Kuroba Kaito, and didn't notice Chi Feichei behind the Counter who was wearing a Hat and changed into a gray-purple Sweater. He smiled and said to Kuroba Kaito, "Since you signed up and were selected, then just come and take a Look, Young Master Kaito, don't be sulking anymore."
Kuroba Kaito Turn Head to Look at the other side, with an arrogant face, "Does that Fellow think that sending a box of Tea Leaves over will make me forgive him?"
Brother Hichiji actually pointed a Gun at him, unforgivable!
If he hadn't dodged quickly that day, he would definitely have been Injured, and might have even lost his Life. Was this something an Older Brother could do? Unforgivable!
Afterwards, Brother Hichiji didn't even look for him to 'reconcile', he just sent a box of Tea Leaves over, without even a Sentence of explanation, unforgivable!
"Young Master Hissashi should have a lot of Matters to attend to," Terai Kiichirou laughed dryly, "Being busy with that kind of Matter, and also busy with Company Matters, and his Place of residence is some distance from Egota, he can't often run over there, Probably he can't spare the Time."
Sigh, as expected, he still had to Intervene to mediate.
"Hmph!" Kuroba Kaito continued with an arrogant face, "I think he has completely forgotten about it, right?"
Hissashi, who was watching the Play behind the Counter: "..."
This... it felt like Kaito was right?
Chi Feichei, who was also appreciating Kaito's arrogant face: "..."
Sorry, he really almost forgot about that Matter.
"Hissashi is the same, heartless," Kuroba Kaito complained angrily, "It used to bite me so many times, and I didn't even mind, but this time Brother Hichiji treated me like this, and it just sat by and did nothing, and even forgot about me along with Brother Hichiji."
Hissashi: "..."
How could it manage? It couldn't bite Master, could it? Moreover, Beihu Town was so far from Egota, it was difficult for a Snake like it to run over there. In the past few days, it had to Follow Master to help with timekeeping, Lookout, and guarding the Car, and it couldn't get away either.
It was just... very aggrieved.
"In short, Brother Hichiji and Hissashi are both unforgivable!" Kuroba Kaito walked to the Counter, solemnly announced, and just Turn Head back, he met a cool Line of Sight.
Gaze from Chi Feichei.
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
Cough, this...
In the next second, Hissashi darted out and bit Kuroba Kaito's Arm.
These few times they met, it hadn't bitten Kaito, Kaito Probably thought it had changed, it wanted to use Action to prove that its Friendship with Kaito hadn't changed.
Kuroba Kaito looked down, met Hissashi's cold Line of Sight, Expressionless.
He secretly Teasing behind his back that he was being bullied, and he was actually bullied again, was there anything more excessive than this?
This familiar History, this familiar Feeling...
"Mr. Terai, Kaito." Chi Feichei greeted.
Kuroba Kaito looked up at Chi Feichei, continuing Expressionless: "..."
Something even more excessive was coming, he had been shot at by him Before, no Apology, seemed to have forgotten about him, and now his Pet Snake was still biting his Arm, and Brother Hichiji was still greeting him with a Calm face as if nothing had happened?
"Young Master Hissashi?" Terai Kiichirou looked surprised, "Why are you here?"
"Company President and Film Crew Member will be distributed at various Preview Screening Location in Tokyo, disguised as Staff, distributing some Movie-watching Gift. Regardless of Whether or Not they are recognized, it's an Activity to increase the fun," Chi Feichei Get Up and walked around the Counter, took out a Syringe from his Pocket, held down Kuroba Kaito, and skillfully gave him a shot, "I'm in charge of here."
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
Even the Method of being injected was so familiar.
"Oh my, we just happened to draw a preview screening Quota here, what a coincidence!" Terai Kiichirou said with a smile.
As expected, he ran into them, the Time he spent Infiltration THK Company to Look at the preview screening Plan was not wasted.
In order to prevent the Situation of brothers turning against each other from happening, he was also very worried.
"Grandpa, when you deliberately put on a surprised Expression just now, you acted too hard!" Kuroba Kaito Half-Moon Eyes glanced at Terai Kiichirou.
"Ah? Is that so..." Terai Kiichirou smiled awkwardly, and handed the verification Badge for the drawn Quota to Chi Feichei, "Here!"
Chi Feichei used the Machine to verify the authenticity of the Badge, took out two Preview Screening Ticket printed with the Hall and Seat number from the ticket outlet, handed them to the Counter, and gave Kuroba Kaito a Paper Bag, "Small Gift."
Kuroba Kaito took the Small Paper Bag, and found that inside, in addition to a beautiful Movie Scene Handkerchief, there was also a Metal Model Gun. The Model was very small, with a hole opened at the top, belonging to the kind that could be used as a Key Charm or Necklace Ornament. The Gun body was also engraved with small Characters 'Commemoration of the First Preview Screening of "The Phantom of Baker Street"'. He sighed, "It reminds me again of the Muzzle suddenly pointed at me that Night..."
"Sorry," Chi Feichei handed another Small Paper Bag to Terai Kiichirou, and said in a calm tone, "You'd better not get involved, Otherwise if two Organizations chase after you to beat you up, you'll have a hard time, and besides, do you Think that apart from me in the Organization, no one else knows Kaito Kid's Identity?"
Kuroba Kaito was startled, propped his right Hand on the Counter, and leaned forward, "There are other people who know?"
Hey hey, was his Alias, Phantom Thief Kid, so unstable?
"Consider her my Senior Apprentice Sister, I don't know Whether or Not she knows Master Dao Yi's Identity, but with her Brain, Even If she hasn't Confirm, she Probably has Suspicion," Chi Feichei stared straight at Kuroba Kaito, "If you are targeted by the Organization, she might Help, but it will cause Troublesome, and for me, it's the Same."
"Ah, I Know," Kuroba Kaito's lips twitched slightly, "My Old Dad doesn't have any Relationship with your Organization, does he?"
His Old Dad's Development of Disciple had even developed to that kind of dangerous Criminal Organization? Toxic.
"No."
"Confirm?"
"Confirm."
"Okay..." Kuroba Kaito Thought that Chi Feichei had also Apology, and Scratch Head, "Then Never Mind, that Night... I was also a bit unable to Calm down."
Terai Kiichirou breathed a sigh of relief, and just happened to See Hissashi on the Counter, suddenly Turn Head to Look at Kuroba Kaito.
Wait, Young Master Kaito calmed down so quickly?
Thinking about it this way, Young Master Kaito's most frequent complaint recently was 'forgotten', and he hadn't complained much about Young Master Hissashi pointing a Gun at him. Could there be a Problem? For Example... masochistic tendencies?
In addition, he always felt that Young Master Kaito had a Women's Clothing fetish and Splitting tendencies, and it felt like the Problem was getting more and more serious.
Should he tell Madam?
"Grandpa?" Kuroba Kaito looked at Terai Kiichirou in Doubt, his Gaze was very Weird.
"Ah, it's nothing," Terai Kiichirou forced a smile, and said to Chi Feichei, "Other Audience members who have drawn Quota should also be coming, we won't disturb you."
"Then that's it, Brother Hichiji, treat me to a Feast another Day!" Kuroba Kaito Turn Around and waved his Hand, dashingly entered Hall 1.
Chi Feichei Watch Leave Two People, preparing to continue doing his ticket checking Work.
People came one after another afterwards, and occasionally someone would deposit Things.
As for the Survey Form, it would be distributed to the Audience to fill out at the End and collected and sent back to the Company, he didn't need to worry about it.
Not long after, five Kids, Doctor Agasa, Mouri Ran, and Suzuki Sonoko joined the queue, and also didn't notice Chi Feichei behind the Counter who had changed into other Color Clothes and whose Hat brim was lowered.
"Is it okay for us to sneak over here?" Mouri Ran said guiltily, "Didn't Brother Hichiji Say, let us wait to See the final Version?"
"It's okay, it's okay," Suzuki Sonoko waved her Hand, "These Quota were all drawn by Ran for us, if we don't come, it would be a waste! I Think Brother Hichiji is just stingy."
"It's also Possible that he's worried about being laughed at if the adaptation isn't good!" Conan Teasing Smilingly.
His Ran was guaranteed to win every draw, no need to ask Chi Feichei to open Back Door access!
Haibara Ai Followed the queue, and suddenly felt a cool Gaze from the Front occasionally Looking over, she looked up.
Received Gaze from Chi Feichei.
Haibara Ai: "..."
Unpredictable Brother Hichiji.
Chi Feichei: "..."
Coming here to squat today, the Gain was really not small.
"Wouldn't it be..." Mouri Ran laughed dryly, "I Think it won't be too bad no matter what."
"That's right, the Trailer we saw at Doctor Agasa's House was very exciting, right, Conan?" Ayumi Turn Around and asked Conan and Haibara Ai, "Haibara Classmate..."
Received Gaze from Chi Feichei.
Conan looked up in Doubt, and his Heart instantly felt as Cold as that Gaze.
Why did he have to Teasing just now...
