At around ten o'clock at night, Shiratori Rensaburo was still awake. When Chi Feichi was picking up a cup to drink, he called back.
"Mr. Chi, are you still awake?"
"Not yet. Just now I went to the online forum to search for discussion threads related to Mr. Zenan, and found clues about the female artist." After Chi Feichi drank the wine, he put the cup back to his hand and said to Bai Bai on the other side of the phone. Torisaburo said, "The police can go investigate. If you need help collecting information from the Internet, I can also help..."
Behind the door of the large room, Conan and Haihara Ai stood at the door, looking at each other in the darkness with helpless expressions.
They knew that Chi Feichi would not sleep peacefully.
It sounded easy to hear Chi Feichi say it, but Chi Feichi spent more than an hour scrolling through posts on his mobile phone. During this period, they went out once, and were driven back to sleep by Chi Feichi. They could only come back and lie down, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. He got up again and went to the door to see Chi Feichi drinking and checking information.
Shiratori Rensaburo thought about how it was not easy for Chi Feichi to check, eliminate, and follow clues on the Internet, and he felt a little guilty. "I'm sorry, Mr. Chi, these should be the work of our police, but I have to trouble you to do it." So much, please rest assured, I will arrange manpower to investigate this clue tomorrow, and please rest early. Thank you very much for your help this time, but you also need to be energetic to keep your thinking flexible, right?"
"I will, and you should go to bed early."
After Chi Feichi finished speaking, he hung up the phone and sent an email to peripheral members of the organization, asking them to keep an eye on the progress of the police investigation. Afterwards, he picked up the cup, drank the wine in one gulp, got up and went back to the big room, sitting on the big row of floors. Lie down near the door.
Conan and Haiyuan Ai had returned to their original positions and pretended to sleep, but they couldn't fall asleep. After Chi Feichi lay down for a while, he turned over in the direction of Chi Feichi, and with his half-moon eyes, he pulled away Fei Chi who crawled in front of his face. Chi, complained softly, "If you drink a lot of wine before going to bed, you may become a weird uncle like Uncle Kogoro in the future."
no respond.
Conan: "..."
Hey hey, right? Chi Feichi fell asleep now?
Haibara Ai:"……"
Brother Fei Chi is really fast, don’t you plan to talk for a while?
Forget it, let her sleep too.
…
The next day, four o'clock in the morning.
The three children woke up early in the morning. After being reminded by Conan and Haihara Ai, they lowered their voices and gathered in the living room to chat.
Dr. A Li stayed up later than Chi Fei Chi in order to repair the machine.
A group of little ghosts gently opened a crack in the door and found that Dr. A Li was still sleeping like Chi Feichi, and the chatter was much quieter.
As a young detective team, what we can talk about and are interested in talking about is the murder case of Zenan Yuhui that we heard last night. It's just that Conan deliberately concealed the clues of the female artist 'KIRA'. The three children discussed it for a long time without making any progress. The conversation took another direction.
While chatting, Conan completely lost the fist fight and was assigned to buy drinks.
Not long after returning, Ayumi stood in front of the window and discovered that a figure suspected of being Tieshan Yanji had limped across the trestle to the open-air hot spring.
The open-air hot spring opened at five in the morning. Tieshan Yanji went there at around 4:40, which suddenly aroused the competitive spirit of the three children to pursue fairness. They dragged Conan and Haibara Ai out and prepared to go to the hot spring.
Before closing the door, Hui Yuan Ai looked back at the dim room and followed.
Although she felt a little bad about not asking Brother Fei Chi and Doctor to watch the sunrise, those two people really should have a good sleep, so she didn't want to disturb them.
She and Edogawa can definitely take care of the three children.
In the big room, Feichi lay on the pillow and muttered, "Master, they have all left. Why don't we go to the hot springs to watch the sunrise?"
"Dreaming." Chi Feichi turned over, said in a very soft voice, and continued to sleep.
He was already awake when a group of children sat up.
Even if he didn't wake up at the time, it would have been difficult for him to wake up with Yuantai's loud voice saying good morning, but he didn't want to move.
Go soak in a hot spring and watch the sunrise? It's enough to dream and get into trouble, so why not sleep a little longer.
"Uh..." Feichi misunderstood Chi Feichi's meaning and put half of his body into the bed, "Okay, it's not bad to soak in the hot springs and watch the sunrise in my dream."
An hour later, there was a faint sound of sirens outside, and there were footsteps hurriedly walking in the corridor outside the door.
Chi Fei had slept enough and did not disturb the sleeping Dr. A Li. He put Fei Chi into the sleeve of his yukata and went to the open-air hot spring where the crowd gathered.
There were already many people gathered at the other end of the trestle, gathering together and whispering about the big news discovered early in the morning.
When crossing the trestle, Chi Feichi saw Conan being angrily thrown out of the door by Henggou Jugo.
"Why are you pretending to be a policeman here?" Henggou Shigego threw Conan outside the door and said to a policeman outside the door, "Go and find the forensic personnel again! Check again!"
Conan landed too quickly, and was blocked by the surrounding crowd. He didn't see Chi Feichi coming over, and was quickly pulled aside by Yuantai and Mitsuhiko.
The people on the periphery heard the footsteps and looked back at Chi Feichi, who looked indifferent, with hesitant and avoidant eyes.
This young man looks too gloomy to be a good person...
Tanzawa Junsaku turned around and saw Chi Feichi, and said hello softly, "Mr. Chi."
Chi Feichi saw three people he had met before: Tanzawa Junsaku, Natori Fumoshio, and Terado Yunpei. He walked up to the three of them and looked at his old acquaintance Yokogawa Shigego who was busy behind the wide-open bathroom door.
Sitang Yunping waited for a while, but did not wait for Chi Feichi to ask. He hesitated and took the initiative to explain, "Mr. Chi, Mr. Tieshan is dead, and the police are currently investigating."
Tanzawa Junsaku took over, "It seems that I accidentally stepped on the soap and hit my head on the rock beside the bath."
"Yeah." Chi Feichi looked back at the bathroom with a look of indifference.
Temple Yunping: "..."
Surprised? What about emotions?
Tanzawa Junsaku: "..."
I don't know if he misinterpreted it, but Mr. Chi's expression was probably "just die".
Natori Fukushi originally wanted to complain about the police's behavior of not letting everyone leave, but was suddenly shocked by Chi Feichi's reaction. She swallowed her words and turned to look in the direction where the five children were gathering, "By the way, Mr. Chi , it seems that the five children you brought discovered the body first, will they..."
Over there, Hui Yuan Ai shouted at Conan with a red face and blazing eyes, "I'm talking about you..."
Ayumi's face turned red, she closed her eyes and shouted at Conan, "Conan, you idiot, idiot, idiot!"
"Scared...so..." Natori Fukushi looked at the five energetic children and finished speaking dryly. He found that Chi Feichi walked past them and didn't say anything again.
It seemed that the five children were not frightened at all. They were still chatting enthusiastically about something at the scene of the crime...
"Ah? Didn't you also see it? That uncle's body..." Conan looked blankly at the two girls who were angry at him. He noticed that Chi Feichi was approaching and raised his head to say hello, "Brother Chi, are you awake? ?”
Haiyuan Ai glanced at Conan angrily and walked behind Chi Feichi.
Waking up early to soak in a hot spring, opening the door of the women's bathroom and seeing the naked body of an old man, what kind of weird experience is that?
Ayumi screamed in fright, but before they could put on their clothes or get a towel to block them, a famous detective ran into the bathroom like a storm. What kind of scary experience was that?
Afterwards, two children, Genta and Mitsuhiko, asked Edogawa if he had seen it. Edogawa actually said, 'I saw everything', 'Because I planned to soak in the hot springs', and 'I was naked'. What an infuriating experience it was. ?
Although Edogawa was talking about corpses, but...
She still decided to go to Brother Fei Chi to try to increase her power in facing Edogawa.
Ayumi also walked quickly to hide behind Chi Feichi, and stared at Conan in annoyance and shame.
Although I don't know why I did this, standing behind Brother Chi, I felt like someone was supporting me. It felt very empowering.
Chi Feichi turned around and looked at the two girls hiding behind him, then looked at Conan, "What's wrong?"
"I don't know why they were so excited all of a sudden," Conan was confused. "Aren't you talking about the corpse?"
"Ah, yes, yes!" Mitsuhiko nodded quickly, "You are talking about Mr. Tieshan's body. We also saw it, right? Genta."
"Yes," Yuantai said hurriedly, "we just took a few sneak peeks..."
"How is this possible?" Conan looked at Genta and Mitsuhiko speechlessly, "You two have never entered the bathroom, have you?"
"What we saw from over there," Mitsuhiko pointed to the path on the side of the bathroom, "is that past the path, past the ventilation outdoor unit, there is a floor-to-ceiling window..."
Conan didn't think much, turned around and followed Mitsuhiko and Genta to look at the window.
Chi Feichi did not follow him, but turned to look at the two girls standing behind him.
Let’s not talk about Xiao Ai, isn’t Bumi also interested in solving crimes? Don't you want to go take a look?
Bumi didn't know whether to file a complaint or not. She hesitated for a moment and decided to explain, "Brother Chi, when Xiao Ai and I found the body..."
"I was shocked." Haiyuan Ai woke up and quickly interrupted Ayumi's words seriously.
"Ah?" Ayumi looked at Haihara Ai in confusion.
Haihara Ai gave Ayumi a comforting look, looked up at Chi Feichi, and changed the subject as calmly as possible, "Although it seems like an accidental slip, Edogawa found some doubts, such as where It's a women's bathroom, Mr. Tieshan shouldn't take a bath there..."
Stop it, stop it, she was too embarrassed to complain to Brother Fei Chi about this kind of thing.
Ayumi's attention was indeed diverted, and she carefully recalled Conan's reasoning, "Also, there is water in the depression of the uncle's shoulder blade. If he slipped and hit his head, the water on the shoulder blade would also be there when he slipped. Will he be thrown out? Conan said that this was a murder case. After killing Mr. Tieshan, someone placed him on a rock, poured hot spring water on him, and threw the soap aside, causing him to accidentally slip. The illusion of falling over and hitting your head.”
"But after Mr. Tetsuyama arrived here, we were the only ones who came here. When we found the body, Edogawa stopped others from entering the women's bathroom. The two staff members guarding there can also prove this," Haibara Ai looked at the two men who were being interviewed by the police. "During this period, they didn't hear any sounds like breaking glass, and there were no signs of anyone climbing up from the lake. In other words, this was a secret room." murdering case……"
"Sorry," Chi Feichi turned and leaned against the wooden guardrail outside the bathroom, "I'm not interested in this incident."
Hui Yuan Ai looked up at Chi Feichi's overly calm eyes and asked tentatively, "Brother Feichi, have you had breakfast?"
