Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

"Miss Chiharu, although this is my personal opinion..." Conan spoke up as Mouri Kogoro, "Is it possible that you are working too hard?"

Shirakawa Chiharu raised her head, with tears in her eyes, and looked at Mouri Kogoro who was sitting against the wall in confusion.

"Parents and children are relationships that don't require effort," Conan continued in Mouri Kogoro's voice. "Perhaps you have to express yourself more willfully, so that people can feel more real and easier to get close to. From the beginning, you Wrong choice..."

Shirakawa Chiharu was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and started crying.

In the corridor outside the door, Conan put down the bow-tie voice changer in his hand and sighed softly.

He suddenly thought of something his father had told him before - the child named Sawada Hiroki seemed to have a bright vitality hidden in his body when he was around Chi Feichi. Although the child had an introverted personality, Most of the time, he is not as energetic as other children, but there is always a lively atmosphere of expectation for tomorrow in his eyes, which can also make people feel real. When he was next to his guardian Thomas at the time, that The child reveals a sense of alienation and caution...

Whether a child is living happily or not and whether he is tolerated and loved can actually be seen on his face, words and deeds - this is what his father later concluded.

It's just that his father didn't expect that the child would jump down from the building. At that time, he thought that things might change when the child was older, or when Chi Feichi had more contact with the child, so he chose to wait and see. Its changes.

This also made his father feel a little regretful afterwards.

There are big problems in the parent-child relationship in the Shirakawa family. In fact, it can be seen from previous contacts - Shirakawa Chiharu is taciturn and preoccupied, Shirakawa Saori is extremely dissatisfied with her mother's arbitrary behavior, Shirakawa Kyosuke always has a look of helplessness on his face, and carries thoughts The feeling of powerlessness about changing something but being unable to change it...

It's just that he didn't expect Chiharu Shirakawa to kill Misuzu Shirakawa. He had never thought about understanding the situation of the Shirakawa family in depth before. Even when he saw Chiharu Shirakawa absently staying in Misuzu Shirakawa's room, he didn't ask.

He didn't have much contact or familiarity with the Baihe family, so he didn't have the same obvious regrets as his father, but his mood was still somewhat complicated.

…

When the police took Chiharu Shirakawa away, although they drove the police car into the garden of Shirakawa's house and asked Chiharu Shirakawa to get in the car where reporters outside could not see it, the reporters outside the door saw two police cars leaving and still sent out their manpower. Follow the police car and try to learn more about the situation.

Not long after the police car left, Chi Feichi drove his own car and left from the main entrance with Nanatsuki Koshizu and the Maori trio.

Nakanishi Yuka, Shirakawa Kyousuke, and Shirakawa Saori also rode in a criminal policeman's private vehicle, followed the red Lexus SC, drove out from the main entrance, and headed to the local police station.

After the incident, both the front and back doors of Baihe's house were surrounded by reporters. There was no difference between leaving through the front door and the back door.

However, two cars drove out of Baihe's house one after another, attracting some media who sent cars to follow them all the way to the police station.

At around 7 o'clock that night, the trio of Chi Feichi, Koshimi Nanatsuki and Maori finished taking notes at the local police station. When they walked out of the door, the reporters outside the door saw Kogoro Maori and immediately surrounded him excitedly. forward.

"Mr. Mori, are you here because of the death of Miss Shirakawa Misuzu?"

"Mr. Mori, how much do you know about the death of Miss Shirakawa Misuzu?"

"Mr. Mori, the police withdrew a large number of police forces from Shirakawa's house two hours ago. Has the death of Miss Shirakawa Misuzu been investigated clearly? Have you participated in the investigation of this incident?"

"Mr. Mori, may I ask..."

"Mr. Mori..."

Chi Feichi, Koshimizu Nanatsuki, Mao Lilan, and Conan fell behind Maori Kogoro, deliberately keeping a distance from Maori Kogoro.

Reporters from Japan TV Station and several major newspapers looked at Chi Feichi and wisely ignored the four people. They did not come forward to ask questions, which also made other new reporters who did not understand the situation mistakenly think that the four were just passers-by. He glanced at it and looked away.

"Mr. Mori's popularity is really high," Koshimizu Nanatsuki said with emotion on his face, "He's not much worse than a big star, right?"

"Teacher Maori has not only solved many incidents, but he also occasionally participates in TV programs. He acts confused and humorous in the program, but he can still speak clearly and rationally when talking about cases," Chi Feichi said. "His popularity will naturally be very high. Gao, that kind of nonsensical sense of humor is still very popular."

Conan laughed inwardly when he thought about Mouri Kogoro's performance when he participated in the show.

What a sense of humor...

This statement seems to be correct. If uncle doesn't want to be a detective someday, he can consider becoming a comedian, maybe he can become popular.

But speaking of popularity...

Conan raised his head and reminded Nanatsuki Koshizui, "Sister Nanatsuki and uncle Kogoro solved this incident together. But looking at the current situation, everyone is only paying attention to whether uncle solved the incident. When the report comes out, Nanatsuki-nee may also be ignored!"

Koshimi Nanatsuki's face was full of understanding, "After all, I'm not a popular celebrity like Mr. Mori."

Conan choked and reminded again with a speechless face, "What I want to say is, do you want to stay away from Brother Chi for the time being and go to the front? With Brother Chi here, even if a reporter recognizes you as a detective, he will I won’t come here to interview you!”

"How can this be done? Since the incident was solved by Nanatsuki-sister and dad together," Mao Lilan didn't wait for Koshimizu Nanatsuki to speak, and took Zhengse's hand and walked forward, "Then let's go there too... "

"Wait, wait a minute!" Koshikoshi Nanatsuki stopped, grabbed Mao Lilan's arm, hugged him tightly, and whispered anxiously, "Xiaolan, calm down, don't you think Mr. Mao Li is now Is your situation terrible?"

Mao Lilan looked at Maori Kogoro, who was surrounded by a crowd of people who were chirping and making sonic attacks, and couldn't escape the encirclement at all. He couldn't help but say that his father was in a good situation now, "But, but..."

"We promised the police not to tell anyone about the case before the police announced the case, but those reporters couldn't get any useful information and were unwilling to let them go easily. Now it's too troublesome to deal with reporters' problems. We Let's go quickly!" Koshizui Nanatsuki's face was filled with the desire to survive, 'I want to live', pushing Mao Lilan towards the parking lot, "Mr. Chi, Conan, you should hurry up and follow us!"

Conan raised his head and looked at Chi Feichi, silent, and then looked at the reporter at the door, "Sister Nanatsuki said this morning that she hasn't received any commissions recently..."

Chi Feichi also looked at the reporters, "But I also think Teacher Maoli's current situation is very troublesome."

"That's right..." Conan looked at Mouri Kogoro who couldn't squeeze out of the crowd, with a hint of sympathy in his eyes, and then started to walk to the parking lot, "Then let's go first."

Chi Feichi didn't stay where he was, "Teacher should be able to hold on for a while. I'll pick him up when I drive over."

Three minutes later, the red Lexus SC drove to the police station gate and honked the horn.

Mouri Kogoro took advantage of the reporters to look back at the car and squeezed through the layers of people surrounding him.

The reporters came back to their senses and were a little reluctant to let Kogoro Mouri leave like this. However, seeing Chi Feichi's cars driving to the side, they were worried that if they kept blocking people, they would be called and scolded by their superiors. , hesitating, he only asked two symbolic questions, and did not stop Mouri Kogoro forcefully.

Mouri Kogoro kept repeating, 'Sorry, I have to leave first' and 'The details of the case will be announced by the police'. When he arrived at the car, he opened the back seat door, got in the car and closed the door again. The whole set of actions was quick and decisive, without any sloppiness.

The car left the spot. When a group of reporters saw the car leaving, they asked their photographer to check the photo of Mouri Kogoro before continuing to stare at the police station gate.

In the car leaving, Mouri Kogoro slumped in his seat and breathed a long sigh of relief, "I'm saved. These reporters are really crazy. I feel like my ears are still buzzing..."
