After coming back to his senses, Conan said speechlessly, "I just want to verify whether my reasoning is correct. It's really unpleasant to know that you are using me. Also, I always suspect that you will secretly laugh at me behind my back at those times!"
"I'm laughing at what you're doing as a kid," Chi Feichi asked back, looking at the wine glass in front of Conan, "Can you return the wine glass to me?"
"You're admitting it, right?" Conan leaned forward and pushed the wine glass in front of Chi Feichi, "There's one more thing I can't figure out. I want to get an answer from you. You're not short of money, so why do you do it? Bounty hunter? Have you taken all the funds for the police?"
"You don't have to feel bad about the remuneration paid by the police." Chi Feichi picked up the cup, lowered his eyes and took a sip of wine. "Every year, the Zhenchi Group gives a large amount of sponsorship to the judicial system. It is more than enough to pay the money, and there is still a lot left over. .”
Conan was speechless for a moment, "Then...are you short of money?"
After a quick glance, it turns out that the person in charge of the Zhenchi Group is Chi Feichi’s father. He sends a large amount of money to the judicial system every year, and Chi Feichi gets paid in the form of a bounty hunter. In fact, , which is equivalent to a son taking money from his father, there is nothing wrong with it.
For the police, the rest is like the custody fee paid to them, and it is still a high-priced custody fee, so it is not a loss.
"No shortage." Chi Feichi said.
"That's like Uncle Jiroji, who is usually too bored and wants to do something challenging?" Conan turned into a curious baby, "Do your parents know this?"
"Didn't you say there's something you can't figure out?" Chi Feichi said, "I've already answered you."
Conan choked, knowing that Chi Feichi was unwilling to tell him, so he couldn't help but follow the topic and said, "Is your relationship with your parents really okay? You don't seem to talk about them much. .”
"I've never heard you say anything about your parents," Chi Feichi replied calmly, "Don't you have a bad relationship with them?"
"I..." Conan choked. There was no way he could talk about Kudo Shinichi's relationship with his parents. It would be so easy to expose his identity, especially Chi Feichi who knew his parents. He couldn't mention it casually, otherwise Chi Feichi would say He might have a fight with his parents, and the 'Edogawa Fumiyo' his mother disguised as a person does not exist at all. How could he have a story to tell, "No, I will mention it occasionally, but it's just You were just not there."
Chi Feichi took another sip of wine and said, "Me too."
Conan did not continue the topic, "By the way, when I was accidentally shot in the abdomen and you carried me out of the cave, I saw that there were no holes for the eyes on your mask. At first I thought Qi Qi was blind, but now that I think about it …Did you install night vision equipment under the mask?”
If Chi Feichi could fight in the dark in a cave, no matter what he thought, it was... outrageous and impossible.
"I am not obligated to answer all your questions." Chi Feichi said.
Conan Youyuan stared at Chi Feichi.
He still had many questions to ask.
For example, what method did Chi Fei late use to prevent the captured criminals from knowing the information about July? Regardless of others, he didn't believe what the two treasure hunters on Shenhai Island said about sea monsters. Could it be that Chi Feichi had given him hallucinogens?
However, with Chi Feichi's character, he felt that he would never get what he wanted no matter how much he struggled. When Chi Feichi didn't talk, he was really in trouble. Rhetoric was useless, and provoking methods were useless. After finishing the sentence, he might be tricked into it.
Chi Feichi ignored Conan's resentful gaze and reminded, "Don't talk nonsense outside. There are more than one or two people who want to die in July."
"I know," Conan reluctantly gave up staring, jumped off the chair and walked to the living room, "I'm going to take a shower."
Forget it, just stop talking if Chi Fei doesn't want to, he can dig it himself.
"Aren't you going to play games?" Chi Feichi asked.
Conan stretched out his hand to open the glass door and said with an awkward tone, "No fight."
"The pajamas are on the bed, and the hot water is on your own."
Chi Feichi warned but did not follow.
In fact, the famous detective was right,
After Conan entered the house, his feelings of coldness and heat were dispelled by the warmth of the air conditioner in the room. He went into his room to get his pajamas and was speechless when he saw the layout of the bed.
Chi Feichi really takes care of him as a child, but he is not a girl, so there is no need to put things like stuffed bears on the bed...
After Conan finished taking a shower, Chi Feichi drank more than half of the wine. He didn't intend to continue drinking, so he went to the kitchen to pour the wine and wash the cup.
After Conan came out of the bathroom, he found Chi Feichi washing cups in the kitchen. He looked over and couldn't help but remind him, "It's best not to take a bath after drinking."
"I know," Chi Feichi put the cup upside down on the shelf and turned to ask Conan, "Do you want to have breakfast at my place tomorrow morning, or go out to eat?"
"If it's not troublesome, let's eat here." Conan felt that his position was shaken again by the delicious food, and he was even more embarrassed to pester Chi Fei to ask about July.
"Then I'll soak the soybeans," Chi Feichi turned around to look through the cupboard, "You go to bed first."
"Yes...good night, brother Chi."
Conan smiled obediently and went back to the room.
Close the door, get into bed and lie down.
Alas, he finally understood what it means to be short-tongued when eating people, short-handed when taking others, being cared for too much, and unable to speak forcefully...
…
As the night wore on, the power to the kitchen and electrical appliances were turned off one after another.
Before going to bed, Chi Feichi opened the door to Conan's room and saw that Conan seemed to have fallen asleep. He closed the door gently, turned off the lights in the living room, and took Feichi back to the room.
Xiaomei walked through the wall into the kitchen and found that Chi Feichi had cleaned up very well. She felt a little disappointed and continued to walk through the wall and floated into Conan's room.
Just a routine check.
The master has already seen it, so even if Conan kicks the quilt, he should still be kicked by the master...
Why? !
The light from outside passed through the gap in the curtains, casting a slender beam of light on the bed.
In the darkness, Conan was lying on the bed, one arm and one leg already stretched out from the quilt.
The stuffed bear on the bed was also kicked aside, but a certain famous detective was so deep in sleep that he didn't notice it.
In the morning in the dream, the morning light is dawning and the air is slightly cool.
He had breakfast at Chi Feichi's house. He remembered that he had not packed his belongings for the trip to Mihua Forest, so he hitchhiked with Chi Feichi and asked Chi Feichi to take him back to the detective agency to pack his things.
Downstairs of the Maori Detective Agency, a red Lexus SC was parked on the roadside.
"Do you want me to take you up?"
When he opened the car door, he heard Chi Feichi ask. He turned around and saw Chi Feichi's calm and cold face as before, and he got used to it.
"Brother Chi, won't you go to Rice Flower Forest with us?"
"I told the doctor that I won't go this time."
"Then I'll go up first~"
He got out of the car after answering, closed the door, and walked up the stairs.
As he walked upstairs, he was still thinking that if Xiaolan remembered that he was going to the Rice Flower Forest with everyone today, she would help him pack his backpack. As for the uncle, don't expect too much. He probably just woke up. How long ago, I was sitting at the dining table on the third floor, eating breakfast sleepily...
When I reached the third floor, I tiptoed to open the door, but it was quiet inside. There was no uncle sitting at the dining table, and no Xiaolan who smiled and greeted him.
"Is it at Café Poirot..."
The moment he closed the door, he suddenly realized something was wrong, and a chill ran down his spine to the top of his head.
When he got off the car, the road and Café Poirot were quiet. He didn’t pay much attention to whether anyone was in the store, but...
Is it too quiet today?
After hesitating for a moment, Conan walked lightly downstairs. At the end of the stairs, on the street outside, he could still see the corner of the red car, and he was confused.
Has Chi Feichi left yet?
When passing by the second floor, he suddenly heard the faint sound of a TV program on the second floor. He breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to open the door on tiptoe.
It turns out that uncle and Xiaolan are on the second floor.
"Kacha."
"uncle……"
The door opened, the TV in the room was still playing programs, and the coffee cup on the table was still steaming, but no one was there.
"Sister Xiaolan?"
When he closed the door behind him and looked around, preparing to analyze where the uncle and Xiaolan had gone, there was a slight noise from behind the door.
He just turned around and opened the door and took a look. He found that no one was outside, and Chi Feichi's car seemed to have left downstairs. He couldn't help but laugh and sigh.
You're so nervous.
Poirot Cafe may be closed today. The uncle and Xiaolan may have gone to a nearby convenience store to buy something. He should pack his things first...
"Click."
After closing the door, Conan just turned around and saw Gin's face enlarged in front of him.
The black hat suppressed the silver hair. Between the gaps in the silver hair, a pair of sinister eyes stared at him, seemingly satisfied with his face that turned white from fright, with a playful sneer at the corner of his mouth.
Before he could react, a big hand covered his mouth, and Gin came closer to him, with a playful coldness in his eyes.
"Long time no see, Kudo Shinichi, no... should be called Edogawa Conan now, right? I didn't expect you to shrink and survive..."
The hand grasped him tightly and lifted him up. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't get away.
how so? How did his identity come to light?
Vodka stood next to Gin, under black sunglasses, with a smile on his lips and sighed, "It's really surprising, brother."
Behind him, a footsteps stopped behind the door, and a hoarse voice came from behind the door, "The extra people have been dealt with, Maori Kogoro and Maori Lan are back..."
"Put the person down first and then deal with it. Doing it on the street might cause trouble," Gin said coldly, turning him to face the door and whispering in his ear, "Keep your eyes open and watch. Let’s see what fate will come to those who are related to you…”
He could see a dark figure heading upstairs through the frosted glass on the door.
Outside the house, the footsteps and voices of Xiaolan and her uncle going upstairs gradually became clearer.
In the room, the TV was still playing advertisements for Chinese Valentine's Day activities. Vodka had already taken out his pistol, loaded the bullet, and pointed it at the two figures appearing outside the frosted glass.
No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free of Gin's grip. He couldn't make a sound. His waving hands and feet could only touch the air, and he could only look at the muzzle of the gun pointed outside...
"Xiaolan——!"
At the last moment, Conan shouted and woke up from his sleep. He sat up suddenly, startling Xiaomei who wanted to help pull the quilt, and floated away.
Conan noticed something flashing before his eyes, but didn't have time to pay attention. He sat on the bed and breathed rapidly to relieve the suffocation caused by his dream. After he recovered, he found that the room was not familiar. He raised his eyes and looked around, and then remembered that he was in the pool. It was not about staying overnight at Chi's house. He raised his hand to his forehead, which was wet with cold sweat, and murmured, "Damn it... I actually have such a nightmare..."
The environment in the dream was so real, even the corridors and doors were exactly the same, but he had dreamed of the thing he was most afraid of, making his heart unable to calm down.
