"Amuro is indeed a person who has been a personal assistant. He is very experienced in arranging these things," Mouri Kogoro said. He felt that he should not always praise Toru Amuro. He paused and said with a smile, "Look at it this way , you guys are really in tune..."
quiet.
Maori Kogoro:"……"
He...forget it, he can't go on.
Chi Feichi saw the two of them lingering on and not talking about business, so he felt that he had to do it by himself, and asked calmly, "Then, how did you get together?"
When Kogoro Mouri hesitated to open his mouth, Toru Amuro smiled and said it first, "The owner of Poirot Cafe agreed that I should go there to do odd jobs when I have time. I met Mr. Mouri there today because his last reasoning was really disappointing. I was amazed and admired, so I decided to become my teacher like you, Mr. Mao Li, and let him teach me some knowledge about being a detective! After considering various situations, Mr. Mao Li agreed to my request."
Mouri Kogoro nodded repeatedly.
That’s right, that’s it!
"Teacher Mori called us here for dinner just to talk about this matter. It is also the first time for teachers and students to have dinner together," Amuro Toru looked at Chi Feichi with a smile, "Besides, I think there are still issues that need to be discussed. , you are much younger than me, you will feel weird if I call you senior brother..."
Chi Feichi looked at Toru Amuro silently.
Amuro, what does this mean? Want to rebel?
Mouri Kogoro also stopped nodding and glanced at Amuro in surprise.
They hadn't planned to say such a thing before, had they?
Toru Amuro leaned close to Mouri Kogoro's ear and lowered his voice, "Don't worry, I will lower the consultant's expectations to a minimum first, and then take a step back, and he will be more likely to accept the fact that you have accepted a new apprentice." .”
Mouri Kogoro swallowed the words that were about to blurt out and nodded towards Toru Amuro.
Toru Amuro quickly sat up straight, and smiled at the expressionless Chi Feichi across from him, "My proposal to Teacher Mori is that we decide the order of our peers by age, rather than by the order of apprenticeship..."
When Mouri Kogoro saw Chi Feichi's eyes drifting towards him, he quickly smiled and took it out, "Although according to Japanese rules, apprenticeships are just like the workplace, first come, first served, but...if you have any differences of opinion, please fully discuss them first." Let’s communicate, I’ll be fine no matter what happens here!”
Chi Feichi looked at Toru Amuro again and expressed his attitude calmly, "I'm dreaming."
Toru Amuro: "..."
Although he knew he would definitely be rejected, the consultant's attitude was too bad!
Maori Kogoro:"……"
The attitude was as bad as he expected.
Amuro Toru tried to break up with Chi Feichi, "I know it's hard for you to accept, but I think there is room for discussion. We can also use other methods to determine the ranking, such as drawing lots or some kind of competition..."
"There is no room for negotiation," Chi Feichi calmly reiterated his attitude again, "Anshi, I don't like drawing lots, and I don't want to compete with you. If I have some time, I might as well go to the hospital to perform sterilization operations on the two cats. , I’m very good at sterilization surgeries, what do you think?”
Maori Kogoro:"……"
He understood this threat. It was vicious and scary.
Amuro choked for a moment, thinking of Chi Feichi's condition, and then thinking of the cats and dogs sent to the operating room, he immediately nodded seriously and said, "What you said makes sense. Competitions or drawings are a waste of time, so we should follow the order of apprenticeship. Well, but I hope you can understand that I am still used to calling you consultant, and I would feel awkward calling you 'senior brother', so..."
"You can call me whatever you are used to," Chi Feichi said without bothering, "As long as you know that I am your senior brother."
Mouri Kogoro couldn't help but look up at Toru Amuro.
This guy is quite capable. His apprenticeship was accepted without even a splash...
…
After the food was served, the three of them ate and drank, and briefly chatted about the business of the Poirot Café, interesting stories about the merchants in Miwa Town, and the sprint competition recently organized by Miwa Town and Cupido Town Neighborhood Committees. The topics were all relatively relaxed and casual.
After the meal, Kogoro Mouri took the initiative to pay the bill. Faced with Toru Amuro's suggestion of "I'll do it," he gritted his teeth and refused the temptation, deciding that he would still pay for the first master-disciple dinner by himself.
He sets an example and hopes that his disciples will be generous, respect each other in the future, and not care too much about the gains and losses of external things with the disciples. In addition, they should be generous, generous, generous...
Seeing that Kogoro Mouri insisted on paying the bill, Toru Amuro said, "Then I'll treat you another day." He stepped aside and whispered to Chi Feichi, "My apprenticeship is not an arrangement of the organization, but my own investigation." plan."
In the organization, the consultant is someone who lurks around Mouri Kogoro. He suddenly became a disciple of Mouri Kogoro and showed an attitude of "I won't leave in the short term." It is easy for the consultant to think too much - is this the organization? s arrangement? Did the organization suspect something was wrong with me, so they sent 'Bourbon' to investigate my relationship with Kogoro Mori?
Even if based on some clues, it is analyzed that he did not come under the orders of that person, the consultant may still wonder - does Amuro have something important to discuss with me? Did something happen to the police? Or is he in trouble?
Logically speaking, he should have said hello to the consultant in advance before he became an apprentice, but when he thought of the consultant's usually cold and calm demeanor, he wanted to see if he could scare the consultant.
Don't consultants often come out suddenly and scare him?
However, he couldn't tell whether the consultant was frightened or not. Anyway, his reaction was quite cold...
Chi Feichi also lowered his voice and said expressionlessly, "Since you know what I will be worried about, please don't forget to tell me in advance next time."
If so, it may sound polite on the surface, but in reality, there is a hostility that says, "Next time you do this again, I will beat you to death."
Amuro Toru thought that this time it was indeed his fault, and felt a little guilty. Faced with Chi Feichi's strange aura, he could not say anything harsh, "But you are too calm, right? When I said before that I wanted to become a disciple, I also paid special attention to the changes in your expression, but you didn't show any surprise at all, as if you were indifferent to these things..."
"I'm sorry, I've always been like this," Chi Feichi looked at the back of Maori Kogoro standing at the front desk to check out, and whispered, "Even if I act too calm about your appearance, there is a high probability that others will not doubt us. If I pass in advance, it will just be regarded as my normal behavior due to my abnormal mental state."
Toru Amuro couldn't help but asked, "Isn't it like this?"
The real situation is that he and the consultant did not collude in advance.
Given their special situation, the consultant, knowing that he had two identities, "Bourbon" and "Public Security Police", was not surprised or curious about his apprenticeship with Kogoro Mori. The reason is that he is not worried about whether his situation is dangerous, just as if the development of the situation remains the same as before, he maintains a cold and indifferent attitude towards this change.
Can this kind of insensitive reaction to external changes be considered normal?
Isn't this kind of mental state that is against human instinct only experienced by mentally abnormal people?
Don't try to fool the consultant. Although he is not a psychiatrist, he has learned a lot about psychology after getting to know the consultant. The consultant's coldness and numbness can definitely be called a 'disease'.
"Of course not." Chi Feichi denied decisively.
Toru Amuro: "..."
This is not the first time that the consultant has been confused about his situation. Every time he denies it, he is serious and solemn. Is this reality so difficult for the consultant to accept?
Chi Feichi: "..."
He was not surprised because he knew the plot and development inertia, and had long thought that Amuro would still become a disciple of Kogoro Mouri. Also, after Amuro went to work at Poirot today, Asuka uploaded Amuro's whereabouts to the intelligence network. He On the way here, I read some information about Mouri Kogoro, and I already knew that Amuro and Mouri Kogoro were mixed together.
On the way here, I was able to confirm 95% of the things in my mind. Is there anything to be surprised about?
It's not that he can't act, it's just that he's too lazy to act.
And even if he tells the truth, involving divination and animal manipulation, his words will most likely be regarded as conjecture, and he himself will be judged as sick.
In short, talking about this kind of topic now is not friendly to him at all. He will be regarded as 'sick' no matter what, but the symptoms are different.
Unable to give any basis for his sanity, Chi Feichi simply changed the subject, "No matter why you came to the Maori Detective Agency, I will report you to that person later."
When Amuro Toru heard Chi Feichi talking about this matter, he no longer thought about Chi Feichi's mental problems. He raised a playful smile on his lips and said softly, "If you have any dissatisfaction with me, just tell that person. However, if anyone is dissatisfied with me then, you must inform me in advance!"
"Which one doesn't want to kill you just because you are apprenticed to Mouri Kogoro?" Chi Feichi asked.
"Of course not that one," Amuro Toru's eyes were confident, with that arrogant and joking smile still hanging on his lips, and his voice became softer, "I even dare to bet you that even if you file a complaint, that one I won’t be dissatisfied with my behavior at all.”
Chi Feichi: "..."
A certain undercover agent is really arrogant.
As Toru Amuro said, he looked at Kogoro Mouri who was signing the signature for the female cashier at the front desk, "I'm talking about other people..."
"Then there's no need to wait, I can tell you now," Chi Feichi whispered, "Ginjiu has long disliked you."
"I've noticed this a long time ago. Even if sometimes he shows no concern for some of my actions, it's just to stabilize me," Toru Amuro smiled nonchalantly, "Anyway, Gin is doing it every day. There are people who want to kill, but there is no queue. I don’t attract his attention that much, so I don’t need to worry about him... What I am more worried about is that some people suspect that I have ulterior motives in contacting Mr. Mori, and some people take the opportunity to respond or fan the flames. This led to that person classifying me as a type of person who can give up at will. If that happens, you don’t have to take the risk to speak for me and just respond according to your own reaction. As long as you are When you realize that my life may be in danger, you can give me an early warning or provide key information so that I can have the opportunity to prepare."
Chi Feichi nodded, "I will."
