When he arrived at the hotel, Kuroki Jiro put down his luggage, left two umbrellas, took one himself, and turned back.
This is a hotel with a hot spring bath, and Kuroki Jiro booked three rooms for them.
When faced with the choice of sharing a room with Maori Kogoro or Chi Feichi, Conan chose Chi Feichi. When he learned that Chi Feichi was not going to take a bath, he packed up and went to take a bath with Maori Kogoro. .
Chi Feichi stayed in the room, listening to Urano Ayaka's monitoring situation today, while exercising and practicing basic martial arts skills. After Conan came back, he packed up his clothes and left the room.
More than twenty minutes later, Chi Feichi returned to the room after taking a shower and found Conan lying in front of the window, looking at the heavy rain outside.
Hearing the sound of the door opening and closing, Conan turned around and said hello, "Brother Chi, you've finished washing."
"Well," Chi Feichi closed the sliding door behind him, squatted down, and locked the safety lock at the lower corner of the door, "Hurry up and go to sleep."
Fei Chi slipped from the wide sleeves of his yukata to the ground, climbed onto the tatami by the window, and rolled on the quilt.
When Conan looked at it, he knew that Fei Chi had already chosen the quilt. He consciously walked to the tatami on the other side and said jokingly, "Fei Chi, rolling around and smelling is a behavior that cats and dogs only do to mark their territory."
Feichi ignored Conan and continued rolling around on the quilt.
It doesn't do childish things like rubbing scent.
It is to help the owner check whether the quilt is safe, whether there are bugs, poisonous insects and other strange things. It also tests whether the quilt is soft or not, and then rolls it around twice...that's all!
Conan didn't get a response and didn't take it to heart. It would be hell if Fei Chi suddenly spoke human words to refute him.
Chi Feichi locked the door, sat on the tatami, leaned against the wooden wall and looked at his phone.
There are a bunch of new messages in the UL chat software, including those from Suzuki Sonoko and Isogai Nagisa, as well as messages from 'outlaw gangsters':
[I watched the movie. The gangster was too stupid. When the elevator came down but no one was there, he should have realized that the situation had changed. When he heard movement at the top of the stairs, he had a gun in his hand and there was enough room to dodge around him, but he did not have enough room to deal with the crisis. To improve your reaction ability, you should first fire two shots behind the safety door at the stairway. People usually ambush behind the door. After firing, you should immediately take the elevator down and leave there. 】
This is talking about the movie adapted from "The Assassin in the Pupil".
The person who sent the message, Gin.
Chi Feichi: "..."
Fortunately, because he was worried that Gin would be bored and go to the movies, he didn't adapt Conan's anesthesia needle watch into it, so as not to remind Gin of being shot by an anesthesia needle at the Abeido Municipal Hotel.
After the adaptation, the following plot is: When the murderer who shot the police officer tried to block the elevator and shoot the leading female lawyer, the female lawyer sensed a sense of crisis and did not take the elevator down. Instead, she took her brother up the stairs and led the murderer into the stairs. He subdued the murderer with his own skills.
As expected, Gin, who had been bored recently, went to see the movie.
According to Gin's style, he probably didn't go to the cinema to watch the movie. Instead, he waited for the movie to be uploaded to Umbrella's network player, then searched and watched it directly from the Internet. He didn't use the account he asked for to post any movie reviews. Instead, he watched it from I sent him a complaint directly in the UL chat software.
The time it was sent was ten minutes ago, at 9:54 pm.
Chi Feichi typed a reply.
Scarecrow: [The prototype of that female lawyer is me. 】
Just like Gin did, he stood in the shadow behind the door that day. Not to mention catching the murderer, he would probably have to take a bullet.
Fortunately, the murderer was not a neurotic and extremely meticulous old hunter like Gin.
However, if he faced someone like Gin, he would not hide behind the door. He would have called the police and asked the police to send people to surround the building first and then conduct a search.
Well, I have to live in peace myself.
"Didi."
New news.
Outlaw: [I know it was you, so if it were me, you would be dead. 】
Scarecrow: [Haha. 】
In Tokyo, in the passenger seat of a Porsche 356A cruising along the street, Gin had a blue vein on his forehead.
Bastard Lark, can you chat!
Ask, what is so grumpy?
While driving, Vodka felt that the people around him were showing a chilling murderous aura. When he looked sideways, he saw that Gin was gritting his teeth. He couldn't help but be confused and worried, "Brother?"
Gin crackled and typed a reply.
Outlaw: [Where are you now? 】
Scarecrow: [Don’t come, I’ll go back tomorrow. 】
Outlaw: [Wait for me to get the positioning software? 】
Scarecrow: [Kanagawa. 】
In the hotel, Chi Feichi was silent.
Ginjiu, don't come over to kill him if you disagree with him. Conan is here and Haibara Ai is here. It will be troublesome if they run into each other.
If that didn't work, he could only look up the recent information on the non-Mexican army and ask Shuichi Akai to have a beautiful encounter with someone from the organization to attract Gin's attention.
If he knew that an important figure in an operation had come into contact with the FBI, Gin would definitely arrange an investigation and consider silencing him, and would have no time to care about him.
How to use Shuichi Akai as a living target? That's how it's used.
Gin calmed down in Tokyo and had no intention of running to Kanagawa to find Chi Feichi for no reason.
Outlaw: [Can you come back tomorrow? 】
Scarecrow: [If nothing goes wrong, it will take about two days. If something goes wrong, we can go back tomorrow. 】
Outlaw: [Why did you go to Kanagawa? 】
Scarecrow: [Follow my teacher to visit his friend. 】
Ginjiu immediately understood what Chi Feichi meant by 'accident': if someone in the master's family dies, he can come back tomorrow.
Outlaw: [Let’s wait until you come back. I’ll take you to the shrine to drive away evil spirits when you have time. 】
Scarecrow: [Do you want me to help carry something? 】
Outlaw: [There hasn’t been much going on in Kanagawa lately. 】
Scarecrow: [Where are the oranges? 】
Outlaw: [Get away. 】
In the hotel, Conan was lying on the bed, listening to the sound of rain outside. He couldn't sleep. He heard the beeping sound of Chi Feichi's cell phone UL message next to him. He turned over and looked at the person sitting with his back against the wall. Chi Feichi, who was playing with his cell phone, joked maliciously, "Brother Chi, you are still sending messages to someone else at this late hour. Could it be that you are a lover?"
"Your lover."
Chi Feichi replied without raising his head, and did not reply to Ginjiu's messages. He cleared the chat history and responded to messages sent by others.
He contacted her, but Conan would miss her as soon as she heard the relevant news, search for her every day, her heart would beat faster when she got a clue, and her mood would be hard to calm down.
Conan didn't know that the organizational clues he wanted to pursue were right next to him. He thought Chi Feichi was dissatisfied with his teasing and sat up speechlessly.
Isn't it just a joke? mean.
"Brother Chi, do you feel weird?"
"What do you mean?" Chi Feichi asked.
"Master Jingshan and Mr. Kuroki," Conan rolled up the quilt and hugged him, preparing to start a bedtime talk with his friends. "Brother Chi, do you think Mr. Kuroki's level is really not enough to participate in that competition? Or are you saying , the reason why Master Jingshan said this is actually..."
Chi Fei didn't hear what Conan was saying, so he added aloud, "Mr. Kuroki is ghostwriting for Master Jingshan. Master Jingshan doesn't want Mr. Kuroki to leave him, otherwise he won't be able to produce new works."
Conan was silent for a moment. He felt that it was not good to make such malicious assumptions about others behind their backs, but he brought it up because he had such suspicions. "However, it is also possible that, as Mr. Kuroki said, his composition was just to study the master's paintings. And the imitation..."
"It takes more than a day or two to complete a painting. People who are often exposed to painting tools and paints can easily leave traces on their hands that are difficult to remove, such as a little pink under Mr. Kuroki's nails. " Chi Feichi interrupted, still staring at the phone, and said while sending a message, "There are traces of charcoal powder in the texture of Mr. Kuroki's palm joints. After he washed his hands before dinner, there are still traces of charcoal powder. Only in the recent period, he has done it every day. It took more than three hours of sketching, and it lasted for at least ten days, before the charcoal powder traces penetrated into the texture. If you don't touch the charcoal pencil, as you wash your hands again and again, the charcoal powder traces will be completely removed. Wash it clean."
"Then Master Jingshan..."
"No."
"That's it..."
Conan understood. In other words, Chi Fei had not found traces of charcoal powder on Master Jingshan's hands.
By the way, he silently reflected that he was not as careful as Chi Feichi, which was wrong.
"There are also calluses on my hands," Chi Feichi continued. "When I was drinking, I took the opportunity to touch Master Jingshan's hand by handing me a cup. The calluses on his knuckles had softened. Master Jingshan had at least two I haven’t completed a piece of work on my own in three years.”
Conan asked, "But when we saw him today, he was clearly painting in the bamboo forest..."
"It may be because I'm trying to complete the painting based on the composition I've completed before, but it doesn't work," Chi Feichi explained. "When painting, you need to use your fingers hard to produce works at the speed of Master Jingshan." Judging from the length of the finished product, the cocoon shouldn’t soften.”
Conan turned to look out the window at the dark sky and the raindrops splashing on the glass from time to time.
Such a famous master used his apprentice's works as his own in order to gain fame and reputation. The discovery of this truth made him want to express something with emotion.
The room was quiet for a while.
Conan came back to his senses and found that Chi Feichi was still sending messages to people, and Chi Feichi pressed the return button on his phone several times. It was obvious that he was chatting with more than one person. He was a little speechless. My friend was so energetic at night. "If Mr. Kuroki is willing, others have nothing to say. It seems that Mr. Kuroki is indeed very grateful to Master Jingshan... By the way, Brother Chi, do you think I can make Master Jingshan give up committing suicide?" Thoughts?"
"It's all in vain to seek fish from a tree," Chi Feichi said bluntly, "Master Jingshan didn't want to commit suicide at all."
Conan was stunned and asked repeatedly, "Why? Although Master Jingshan looks very happy, is it possible that he is hiding it? From the contact point of view, Master Jingshan is indeed a very face-conscious and strong person, and he cannot paint when he is drunk. , it’s not fake to feel depressed when you cover your arms.”
