Jane smiled at Ikegana, "So madam, do you want to start choosing a dress now?"
Ikegana picked up the camera on the table, "Before that, could you or Lydia please take a family photo for us?"
Jane and Lydia looked at each other and took the initiative to say, "Let me do it."
"Please use this camera," Ikeana handed the camera to Jane and looked around, "Where do you want to take pictures, Xiao Ai?"
"How about in front of the fireplace?" Haiyuan Ai looked at the fireplace, "It will be more artistic."
The photo was originally taken to suit Haihara Ai's idea, so the other three people naturally had no objection and got up and walked to the fireplace.
Jane took the camera and walked to the position facing the fireplace.
Lidya and others took the dress out of the dust bag and inspected it.
The four members of the Chi family quickly determined the location for the photo.
Shinnosuke Ike and Kana Ike sat on two chairs, with their knees facing each other but maintaining an appropriate distance.
Haibara Ai was picked up by Ikegana and placed on the leg close to Ike Shinosuke.
Chi Feichi stood behind Chi Zhennosuke's chair, in the middle position like Haibara Ai.
In this way, Ike Shinosuke and Ike Kana are on both sides, Ike Feichi and Haihara Ai are in the middle, one is standing behind the chair, and the other is being held by Ike Kana, the whole is intimate and harmonious.
Haiyuan Ai took the opportunity to look ahead while taking pictures, observing Jian and the busy servants behind Jian, hiding the solemnity in his eyes.
The smell of organization seems to be accumulating and fermenting in this house, becoming more and more intense.
But who could it be?
"Do you want to include the giant pandas?" Jane turned her head and looked at Tuanzi, Feimo, and Feichi who were lying on the sofa eagerly, and Feichi, who was left there by Chi Feichi, "There are other animals, arrange them in, It should make the photos you take look more alive.”
"I have other pets that are not here," Chi Feichi said. "It would be unfair to the other pets if I only bring them."
When Tuanzi heard what Chi Feichi said, he picked up the half-eaten bamboo and lay down on the sofa to nibble on the bamboo.
Fei Mo and the two crows jumped on the coffee table and drank water from the cup.
Fei Chi climbed up to Tuanzi's head and circled around, watching Tuanzi slowly nibbling bamboo.
If they took a photo with their owner and Wuming and Feili found out, they would definitely feel sad, lost, and envious. Thinking about it like this, they wouldn't look forward to having the photo taken.
Photos can be taken later, but the mood of your friends should be taken into consideration.
After hearing what Chi Feichi said, Jian found that a group of animals seemed to be uninterested. She did not insist. She raised the camera and looked at the four people in the picture. Her eyes stayed on the figure of Haiyuan Ai, "Okay, then please invite the four people." Look at me here..."
Many years ago, when she was pretending to be a passerby to help out, she saw Shirley being picked up by someone from the organization.
The little girl's face under the camera not only resembles Shirley when she grows up, but also looks more like Shirley when she was a child, almost exactly the same.
Considering her age, it is impossible for Shirley to have such an old child. Could she be a relative of Shirley? Or do they happen to look alike?
"Kacha."
The camera shutter was pressed, and Jane reminded the four of them not to move, and took another photo as a backup photo for selection.
"Kacha."
"Ok," Jane put down the camera and looked down at the photos taken. "It looks better than the one just now. Do you want to take other photos?"
Chi Kana lowered his head and asked Haihara Ai in his arms, "Xiao Ai, do you still want to take pictures?"
Huihara Ai shook her head gently, "No, just one photo is enough. I want to take some photos with other scenery when I go out to play in the future."
Chikana carried Haihara Ai down, stood up and walked forward, took the camera from Jian, squatted down and looked at the photos with Haihara Ai.
In the photo, Ikegana has a gentle smile on her face, and Haibara Ai also tries to keep her eyes as soft as possible. The two of them look quite similar, but...
Ike Shinnosuke didn't smile.
Chi Fei did not laugh for a long time.
The father and son looked at the camera indifferently, their postures were quite leisurely, but they also had a solemn air, which was in sharp contrast to the gentle expressions of Ikekana and Haibara Ai on the other side.
Looking at the photo, Ikegana felt a strong sense of fragmentation, and was worried that Haibara Ai would be disappointed. She pretended to comment nonchalantly, "It's very artistic. I think this photo can be called... ice and fire."
Haibara Ai didn't expect Ike Shinnosuke and Chi Feichi to smile. She didn't have high requirements. It would be nice to take a photo. But after hearing what Ikegana said, the feeling of looking at the photo was different.
In addition to the contrasting styles of the left and right halves of the photo, the distance between the four people actually makes them seem harmonious. In addition, it had just rained, and the light outside the window was dim. The four people were illuminated by the light in the room, and the four of them were in a British style. In a retro-style environment, the photos look very textured.
Paired with the name "Ice and Fire," this photo looks like an oil painting carefully created by an artist.
Just by mentioning a name, the incongruous photos turned into works of art. Her godmother's artistic talent is amazing. She should be able to "turn the world around with just one touch".
Chi Feichi and Chi Zhennosuke were not interested in looking at the photos, and passed by them expressionlessly.
Ike Shinnosuke asked Lidya to confirm the clothes he wore at night, and took the clothes upstairs to try them on.
Chi Fei was not in a hurry to leave and stood by the sofa talking about old times with Jian.
"Jane, have you been in England all these years?"
"No, it's Master Chi," Jane said with a decent smile on her face, "After you moved out to live alone, some of the young servants in the family went to the UK to manage properties in other places for my wife, and some of them went to work For the job I wanted to do, I wanted to visit places with different customs. Over the years, I have been traveling around the world and have been to many places."
Chi Feichi guessed that Jane might have performed many of the organization's tasks over the years, and asked, "Where is Mr. Zhikang?"
"In the past two years, he and his wife also traveled around the world, and we occasionally shared our travel experiences with each other." Jane sighed softly, with a hint of loneliness on her face, "But you also know that his heart was earlier. The year wasn’t very good, and he passed away at the beginning of this year.”
"Really..." Chi Feichi lowered his eyes, catching a trace of emotion that flashed through his heart.
The life of the original consciousness is short, and Mr. Zhikang occupies a large space in the life of the original consciousness, much more than Jian Du.
Every time he turned over the memories related to Mr. Zhikang, most of the emotions he felt were - peace of mind and solidity.
Suddenly he heard that the old housekeeper had passed away. A feeling of sadness appeared in his heart quickly and then dissipated.
It had been a long time since he had felt the emotion of 'sadness'. He was not sure whether this mild mood swing was sadness for Mr. Zhikang...
"You don't have to be too sad," Jian thought that Chi Feichi was a little sentimental, so she cheered up again and comforted softly, "Mr. Zhikang has accompanied his wife to many places in the past two years and fulfilled the promise he made to his wife when he was young. Before and after his death, his wife and children were always by his side, and when he died, he did not suffer much. His wife even lamented that Mr. Zhikang was very lucky in his life..."
Haihara Ai stood aside, looking down at the camera, paying attention to the conversations around him.
The maid named Jane was reminiscing with Brother Fei Chi. Over there, Lydia and other young maids were discussing their evening dresses. No one was strange for the moment...
"There are three sets of dresses. You can just choose the one you like. I'll accompany you to take a look..." Chikana noticed that Haihara Ai was distracted and called, "Xiao Ai?"
"Sorry," Haiyuan Ai came back to her senses. Thinking that she was paying attention to other things when Ikegana was talking seriously, she showed a bit of apology on her face. She raised her head and said to Ikegana, "Godmother, I want to send the camera back to the room first." , come down and pick out clothes."
"Is that so..." Chikana smiled and nodded, "Then I'll wait for you downstairs."
Haiyuan Ai walked towards the stairs with the camera. She felt a look with a cold and organized look resting on her back. Her scalp immediately went numb. She resisted the urge to turn around and walked up the stairs in a natural and calm manner.
On the second floor, in the master bedroom, the faint whispers of Mr. Shinosuke and the young maid could be heard.
The third floor was quiet, the corridors were empty, and there was no sign that the room door had been opened.
In a short period of time, no one should come upstairs to disturb her...
After entering her room, Haiyuan Ai locked the door. After putting the camera on the table, she nervously checked the room before taking out her cell phone and dialing Dr. A Li's home phone number.
"Beep...beep...beep..."
The time spent waiting for the call to be connected was enough for Haiyuan Ai to think about "whether Dr. A Li has been captured by the organization" and other situations.
Fortunately, Dr. A Li quickly answered the phone, "Hello, this is A Li's house..."
Haiyuan Ai made a judgment. Seeing that Dr. A Li's tone was normal, he interrupted, "Doctor, it's me, I'm Haiyuan."
"Xiao Ai?" Dr. Ali was a little surprised, "Didn't I just talk to you on the phone?"
"We'll talk about that later," Haibara lamented. "Is Edogawa still with you now?"
"Are you looking for Shinichi?" Dr. Ali replied, "He will come to my place today. In addition to worrying that I will not adapt after you leave, he also wants me to find out if there are any other incidents of black monsters appearing on the Internet. Let's I was just reading online forums on my computer, why did you suddenly want to find him? What happened? "
"Doctor, please ask him to come to the phone and turn on the speakerphone."
"Ah? Then wait a moment..."
There was a faint rustling voice on the other end of the phone.
Not long after, Conan's voice sounded, "Haiyuan, what do you want from me?"
"I met someone from the organization." Hui Yuan Ai said in a low voice.
quiet……
Two seconds later, Dr. A Li's shocked voice came from the other end of the phone, "Wha...what?"
"Haiyuan, you said you met someone from that organization?" Conan said urgently, "What happened? Is it now? Is the person still around you now?"
"I told you on the phone before that we were going to visit Queen Isabella in the afternoon and attend a dinner party by the way," Haibara Ai said calmly, "After I hung up the phone and went out, Lydia took a group of servants with her. , delivered the dresses we would wear at home, and when the servants came in, I felt the breath of those guys."
"You mean, there are people from that organization among those servants?" Conan's voice became heavier, "Are you sure?"
"It's absolutely not wrong," Haiyuan Ai said firmly. "After I calmed down, I seriously felt that terrifying aura. It is definitely someone from that organization, and it has always been present in the house."
"Can you be sure who that person is?" Conan asked again.
