Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

For lunch that day, Mori Kogoro chose a hot pot restaurant based on Koshimizu Nanatsuki's suggestion.

It was early autumn, and there were not many people eating hot pot.

When Mori Kogoro ate and drank wildly with the hot hot pot, the owner quietly looked at him with admiring eyes at the front desk, and after Mori Kogoro finished eating, he asked a detective for his autograph.

This meal was settled by Yueshui Nanatsuki, who said, "Thank you Mr. Mao Li for taking care of you, I will trouble you in the future, please take care of me", so that Chi Feichi couldn't propose to pay by himself, and followed him again. The teacher eats and drinks.

After the two sent the drunk Mori Kogoro back to the Mori Detective Agency, they went to the opposite building.

The builder contacted by Dashan Mi has arranged for the person in charge to come. In addition to the person who did the preliminary on-site measurement, he also brought an architectural designer to prepare for on-site communication to make a plan.

Chi Feichi invited him to the living room, and asked Yue Shui Nanatsuki to communicate with the other party.

The designer came prepared, brought a laptop, and made a rendering of the courtyard for Yueshui Nanatsuki on the spot, "As for the additional toilets and toilets, I recommend using the recently popular boards instead of brick-concrete structures. This is convenient for dismantling or adjusting and rebuilding in the future. There are already very strong boards on the market. After erection, the safety can be guaranteed, and the waterproof performance is very good, it is not easy to stick stains, and it will be easier to clean up..."

The person in charge added with a smile, "At present, there are not many private uses, because this kind of board is only suitable for adding toilets outdoors, but some parks abroad are already using it, and some places in China are also using it. Although the time is still short, the service life is not enough. Estimates, but it won’t be a problem to use it for five years, and the price of the added construction is cheaper than wooden and brick-concrete buildings, so I suggest giving it a try.”

"Okay, but you have to be safe..." Chi Feichi noticed the phone vibrating in his jacket pocket, got up and went to the balcony, "Sorry, you guys look first, I'm going to answer a call."

He is not afraid that the person in charge will fool him. If there is a problem with the new material trial, the lawyers of the Manchi Group will go directly to that company to talk about it.

When the phone was connected, Conan over there consciously reported his name, "Brother Chi, I'm Conan, I'm not bothering you, right?"

"No," Chi Feichi felt that Conan didn't have to be so polite, it's fine to talk about something, so he asked directly, "What's the matter with you calling?"

"I want to ask you, do you know..." Conan said, suddenly paused, "No, it's nothing, you didn't seem to sleep well last night, I just want to ask how you feel now? Is there any discomfort?"

Chi Feichi leaned against the balcony guardrail and looked at the wall clock on the wall inside the house, "Yuantai's father's name is Kojima Genji, you will be surprised when you see him."

"You..." Conan was a little confused, "How do you know I'm calling to ask you this?"

"It's 5:25 in the afternoon. It's almost two hours since you left school. You called and said you were worried about me. It's a bit fake. If you are worried, you can call after school for half an hour Call when you return to the detective agency, or you can stop by me on your way back from school to check the situation, and you stopped talking for a while, which means that what you wanted to say was not this, but you just suddenly thought of something and changed your words temporarily, "Chi Feichi proved with his actions that not only famous detectives can play daily reasoning, "Also, if you go back to the detective agency, you will find that I have customers here, and there are more than one car parked at the door. With your personality, call me I'm not curious to ask what's going on, it means you haven't come home yet, I read the forum online last night, and saw that many people were discussing the recent selection of Mr. Kojima from Japan. And this afternoon at Nichimai TV Station, there will be trials and finals after the preliminary round. If Yuantai has time, he will definitely want to cheer for his father. After you hear about it, you should also be interested in watching it..."

Conan: "..."

I almost forgot, Chi Feichi is careful and has abnormal reasoning ability.

But what does it mean that he called and cared too much? Can't he call to care about Chi Feichi who woke up countless times last night and left a new cigarette butt in the living room that he didn't have before going to bed?

In terms of carefulness, he is not bad.

"It takes about forty minutes for a child to walk from your school to Nikmai TV. If you let Dr. Ali drive and pick you up and go with you, including the time it takes for the doctor to pick you up, the final time required is about the same. Not more than an hour," Chi Feichi said, "If nothing happens, you should be watching the finals right now, it's impossible to call me if you have time, even if you want to play, it won't be too late to call after watching..."

"So, what's your conclusion?" Conan asked with interest.

He wondered how much Chi Feichi could find out from one call from him.

"After school in the afternoon, you went to Nikmai TV, and then you, the God of Plague, encountered another incident, and the selection competition was forced to end," Chi Feichi continued, "From meeting the time to making a call, during this hour, wait for the police to pass by And start the investigation, and the time is about the same. At this time, you should call me with all your heart to solve the case... Thinking of seeing their parents when I sent Yuantai and the others back, I can imagine that Yuantai's father was involved in the incident You call me to ask me who Yuantai's father is, but you suddenly changed your mouth because after you calm down, you think that knowing who Yuantai's father is will lead to your own preconceived ideas , I feel that Yuantai's father is unlikely to commit the crime, which will affect my judgment."

"You know what I think, why did you tell me directly?" Conan said speechlessly, "And what is the plague god..."

Chi Feichi vaguely heard the screams from his teacher from the Maori Detective Agency, and looked sideways, "I believe you won't be affected by this."

As soon as Conan heard that he knew so well and trusted him, he was so angry that he didn't even want to get entangled in Chi Feichi's avoidance of the topic of "Plague God". The situation of the incident? The police are still questioning the three suspects. If you want to know the situation, I can tell you the general situation first. After the questioning from Officer Takagi, I will talk to you on the phone. you say."

The friends are going to compete together to solve the case!

Chi Feichi: "I don't want to."

Conan: "..."

hello...

"Come back as soon as you solve it. The teacher is about to be beaten to death by Xiaolan, and Xiaolan should invite Yueshui and me to have dinner at night, or come to my place to eat. If you don't come back, call as soon as possible. Don't let us wait."

After Chi Feichi finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Leaving Conan over there digesting the amount of information in Feichi's words, I don't know where to spit out my heart.

...

That night, Mao Lilan really called Kogoro Mori and Conan, who had returned home, to Chi Feichi's place, bringing a small gift that would be given when visiting neighbors, and welcomed Nanatsuki Yueshui in advance, and had a meal together by the way.

The topic at the dining table was the renovation of the yard. After the meal, Yueshui Nanatsuki and Mao Lilan helped clean up the dining table, and then they got together to look at the renderings on Chi Feichi’s computer and discuss which set of furniture to choose from the person in charge’s recommendation. .

The leisurely and relaxed atmosphere of the party did not end until nine o'clock in the evening.

After Chi Feichi waited for everyone else to go back, he took a taxi to Jianggutian to meet Koizumi Hongzi's house. At Koizumi Hongzi's request, he slept on a stone slab with a magic circle drawn and candles around it for one night.

After falling asleep, the dream comes as promised.

When Chi Feichi left the bone jade space, what he saw was the wall outside the Montgomery family's residence.

Thirteen-year-old Phoebe and a boy huddled behind a tree, quietly watching the soldiers coming in and out of the door.

"Child of Nature?"

Koizumi Hongzi's uncertain voice came from beside him.

Chi Feichi turned his head to look, and could only see a figure made of white mist, "Is the me you see now a mist?"

While Chi Feichi was speaking, Gu Yu made another soft sound, scaring Phoebe so much that she quickly reached out to cover the Gu Yu pendant around her neck.

"That's right, the white mist in human form, like a ghost," Koizumi Hongzi looked down before realizing that Chi Feichi's words had a connection with Guyu, "What about me? Don't I have a body?"

"You are also a mist." Chi Feichi said, causing the bone jade to start ringing again.

Phoebe lowered her voice, lowered her head to comfort the bone jade pendant, "I know you are angry, and so am I, but I can't make a sound now."

Koizumi Hongzi reacted, "Does your talking make that thing make a sound? You can actually interfere with everything here?"

Chi Feichi nodded.

Koizumi Hongzi asked again, "Isn't this a dream?"

Chi Feichi: "..."

He couldn't answer this by nodding and shaking his head, and he didn't know what it was.

Hongko Koizumi changed the question, "Is this girl Phoebe the Undead Witch?"

Chi Feichi nodded.

Koizumi Hongzi noticed that Phoebe and the boy were whispering, listened attentively, and asked speechlessly, "What are they talking about? I don't understand some words..."

Chi Feichi remained silent, and pointed to the front door.

He also had difficulty translating and understanding language problems at the beginning, but Hongzi just got used to it.

As for what Phoebe and the boy were talking about, he could answer with action.

This should be the second night after Becky was burned to death. The army and missionaries were busy counting the harvest, which is commonly known as 'scraping the house'.

That's what Phoebe and the boy were looking at and talking about.

Koizumi Hongzi looked at the gate, and after seeing someone coming out carrying a big box, he remembered that the Red Magic family had also been ransacked in the records, and understood what Chi Feichi meant, his face turned cold instantly, and he calmed down after a while. Frowning worriedly, "The agreement back then seems to be that the land and subjects belong to other lords or monarchs, and the collections of each family belong to missionaries. Only missionaries want these most. If there are missionaries, they must not be able to hide them. The magic family and other families have treasures for tracing people, and they should have fallen into their hands."

Chi Feichi floated in front of Phoebe and asked Koizumi Hongzi to pay attention to the strangely shaped wooden branches at Phoebe's feet.

Hongzi somewhat underestimated the magic and splendid culture of this era. The missionaries had treasures to find people, and the Montgomery family, whose ancestors had collected all kinds of strange objects for generations, also had things to protect themselves.

Although most of them could not be taken out and fell into the hands of those people, some of the things that were used for self-protection and were convenient to carry were found on the escaped children.
