Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

"I was only four years old when my grandfather passed away," Chi Feichi revisited his early memories and affirmed after seeing Fu Gaoming's reaction so strongly, "but whether it was before or after that, I can be sure that I didn't I heard what my family said about the House of Hope."

"It's no wonder..." Zhu Fu Gaoming came to his senses and smiled apologetically, "I'm the one who asked the question abruptly. In fact, the House of Hope I mentioned was the residence of Mr. Chi Jianyi when he lived in Nagano. He moved out of Nagano. Afterwards, that house was left to some young people with dreams, talents, but financial difficulties, and let those young people live for free. In the few years before his death, he occasionally went to visit. The year before, he also transferred the ownership of that house to those young people... Although there are not many people in the area who know the name of Mr. Chi Jianyi, everyone admires Mr. Chi Jianyi's heart for young people, so he also Some people will call it the House of Hope, which is a name known only to some local people, and you and your family have not been there for a long time, so it is normal not to know this name."

"I heard my father talk about that house once after my grandfather passed away," Chi Feichi recalled calmly, "My grandfather has already handed over that house to whomever he wanted, What happens next has nothing to do with us, those people will keep it... that's probably what my father said."

Zhu Fu Gaoming: "..."

So why don't you take a look for more than ten years? Just pretend there is no this house?

Although it has been transferred to those young people back then, although this is only the house that Mr. Chi Jianyi lived in in his early years, and the Chi family does not lack this house, although he also thinks that "someone else will keep it" is very philosophical, But as members of the Chi family, have the father and son never thought about going out together in Nagano, visiting the places where their father/grandpa once lived, and telling stories about their ancestors?

As far as he knew, the Chi family had never been there once.

Chi Feichi thought about it, and found that the memory of that house was 'my grandfather lived in Nagano and gave it to someone else', and there was nothing else, so he asked directly, "Officer Zhufu, what do you want to find?" What the hell is it?"

Zhu Fu Gaoming came back to his senses and looked serious, "After the death of Mr. Chi Jianyi, those young people seem to still send letters to Chi Jian's family, talking about the development and gains in the past one or two years. I want to know what those letters are now. Are you still here?"

"Every once in a while, someone will come here to tidy up the courtyard, and the letters in the mailbox at the door will also be received in the house," Chi Feichi stood up, picked up Hiroki Sawada who was about to climb off the sofa, and carried him to the door. , "Should be uniformly placed in the side hall."

Zhu Fu Gaoming got up to follow, and when he went out, he saw that Chi Fei was late at the door of the side hall, put down Hiroki Sawada, took out the key and opened the door, feeling even more apologetic.

Let Chi Feichi help while taking care of the baby, he is already very sorry...

Several times, he was worried that Chi Feichi would be inconvenient, and wanted to offer to help hold the baby, but every time he didn't have time to speak, and he didn't even have time to reach out, Chi Feichi had already taken care of it...

The furniture in the side hall is still kept, but except for a large desk, other furniture is also covered with cloth.

There were letters and documents piled up on the desk like a hill, and the envelopes of the letters at the bottom were yellowed and old.

After the door was opened, the dust flying in the sun and the old letters all carried a heavy sense of time.

Chi Feichi went in and opened the window to ventilate the room, then turned to look at the big desk, "After my grandfather passed away, all the letters sent here should be there."

Zhu Fu Gaoming felt that he needed help to keep an eye on the children. He waited for a little one to step through the door before entering the room. When he arrived at the desk, he took out a letter from the middle of the pile of letters and looked down at the letter sent from Hokkaido. Address, I remembered that I didn't seem to explain why I was looking for a letter.

Since he was looking for someone to help, he should explain it without revealing the facts of the case, right?

Even Chi Feichi didn't even seem to want to ask.

"Mr. Chi, in fact, not long ago, our police found a suspected murder case in the House of Hope. We wanted to find out about the situation of a few young people who lived there. After Mr. Kenichi passed away, they left one after another. After entering the House of Hope, all of them have made good progress. Some have become actors, some have become musicians, and some have become famous designers. From this point of view, Mr. Kenichi did not misread them... "

As he said that, Zhu Fu Gaoming smiled, and then continued, "Because many of them are famous and have contacts with each other, it is not troublesome for the police to find them, but one of them named Bai The resident of Seto Ren has very little contact with other people. I heard from other people that he is currently a CG painter and is used to working behind the scenes. Although he is considered successful, he is not famous and rarely attends parties. Our police temporarily I haven't found his current address yet, and I can't reach him by calling the phone number provided by others, so I wondered if he mentioned the new address in the letter he sent, so I decided to come and have a look."

"By the way, let's see if there are any clues in the letter?" Chi Feichi asked.

"That's right, because the victim was also a resident who used to live there and has not moved out. The body was also found in that house. I think the letter they sent to Mr. Kenichi might mention something. Clues that are difficult for us police to find..." Zhu Fu Gaoming looked down at the letters with a serious expression, then quickly calmed down, looked up at Chi Feichi and said, "Please ask Mr. Chi to help me Find those letters, and I can tell you their names."

Chi Feichi walked to the table, reached out to pick up the top letter, "Officer Zhu Fu, you are really troublesome."

Zhu Fu Gaoming looked at Chi Feichi's calm and calm expression, unable to tell whether Chi Feichi was complaining or teasing, so he decided to follow his heart and explained with a smile, "I have always respected Mr. Chi Jianyi, and there are more than a few of them here. I think it would be better to have someone from the Chi family help me find the letter. This is the first, and the second is that friendship between morality and righteousness is rooted in morality, but the essence is friends who help and support each other. Today I propose to let Help me, Mr. Chi, and when Mr. Tianchi arrives in Nagano, I'll treat you to taste the local delicacies of Nagano again, that's how the so-called friendship came about."

Today I met a person who can surprise him, disrupt his rhythm, read Romance of the Three Kingdoms, talk with him more calmly, smart and sharp, and can reason. He is very interested in making this friend.

Sawada Hiroki followed, looked up at Zhu Fu Gaoming, and said thoughtfully, "Franklin also said that if you want to make a friend, then ask him to do you a favor."

"Little brother, is he already learning these famous sayings at such a young age?" Zhu Fu Gaoming squatted down and looked at the little one curiously, "Xiao Shu, how old are you?"

Sawada Hiroki looked down at his small body, and asked uncertainly, "Should it still be one and a half years old?"

Zhu Fu Gaoming only thought it was a child who couldn't remember the exact age, so he stood up and said to Chi Feichi with emotion, "At this age, you can understand what I said, and you can reasonably associate famous sayings with the same meaning. It's incredible wisdom."

"He has always been smart," Chi Feichi glanced at Zetian Hiroki, patted the pile of letters on the table with his hand, looked at Zhu Fu Gaoming calmly, and said, "The friendship between games will not last forever, and the friendship between eating and drinking will never end. Yue, friends of power don’t last forever, but friends of morality can last forever, since Officer Zhu Fu thinks highly of me, then hurry up and work.”

Zhu Fu Gaoming always felt that 'respecting me' was associated with 'working quickly', which was inexplicably harmonious, so he couldn't help but smiled, "Okay, let me tell you the names of those residents. There are a total of six people in this house, the well-known illustrator Mr. Akashi Shusaku, Mr. Suikawa Naoki who often plays bad officials in costume dramas, fashion designer Mr. Yamabuki Shoji, mystery novelist Ms. Kobashi Aoi, music Mr. Shiro Naoki, and Mr. Takuto Morose, a CG artist..."

Chi Feichi let out a 'huh', and quickly flipped through the signatures on each letter.

"Ms. Xiaoqiaokui and Mr. Akashi Zhouzuo changed their husband's surname after they got married, but she passed away in an accident three years ago. In addition, you should have noticed it," Zhu Fu Gaoming reminded while searching for it. "There are different colors hidden in the pronunciation of the names of the six of them. Shusaku Akashi's Ming is AKA red, Suikawa Naoki's Tsui is Mi DO Ri green, Kohashi Aoi's Aoi is AO blue, and Yamabuki Shoji's Yamabuki is YAMAHUBUKI is golden yellow, Moose Takuto is peachy, and Naoki Shiro is SHIRO white. I heard that when Kenichi Ike was alive, they would call each other by color when they lived together, and Mr. Kenichi Ike would occasionally call them by color. So in the letters they send, their signatures may also be colored."

Chi Feichi gave another 'hmm' and continued to flip through the pile of letters.

When it comes to names and colors, he knows it.

Isn't this the case of the plot of "Red Cliff"? The murderer was Naoki Suikawa with green in his name, and he even remembered this clearly.

Zhu Fu Gaoming also bowed his head to find the letter, and said to himself, "Speaking of address, you can actually call me by my name, Gao Ming, and in the same way, I can also call you 'Feichi Jun', although it is based on age, you say you When your grandfather passed away, you were only four years old. I should have grown you by more than ten years. You can call him 'Brother Gao Ming', but you seem to be the kind of person who is difficult to get close to other people. I want to call each other names..."

"I'm not very used to calling others by their names, and I don't think that the distance between people is defined by their names." Chi Feichi looked down at the stack of letters in his hand, "I usually call them casually."

"What you said makes sense, but I'm too rigid about formality, so..." Zhu Fu Gaoming turned his head, and saw a gray-black snake crawling out of Chi Feichi's sleeve, and he didn't say anything more.

Feichi climbed out of his sleeves, fell onto the table with a clatter, and crawled down the chair next to the table, saying sleepily, "Master, I'm thirsty, go outside to see where there is water..."

Sawada Hiroki reached out and pulled Feichi off the chair.

Zhu Fu Gaoming's eyes shifted to a certain immature little hand again, and his brows twitched.

"Little tree, take Feichi to drink water," Chi Feichi said, raising his eyes and introducing to Zhu Fu Gaoming, "This is my pet, its name is Feichi, and it usually doesn't bite."

"General..." Zhu Fu Gaoming felt that this word was worth pondering.

"Are you afraid of snakes?" Chi Feichi looked down for the letter again.

"No, it's just that it's rare to see a scene where people get so close to snakes. I'm a little surprised," Zhu Fu Gaoming said surprised, but there was no surprise on his face. I had no choice but to follow the letter, "Let a child run around in this kind of house that has not been lived in for a long time. If he encounters danger, he will be in trouble. I'd better go and see."
