Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

Chi Feichi saw that Honma Kyou had already found a good reason. Without asking any more questions, he walked to the alley next to him and said in a hoarse voice, "Follow me."

"Yes!" Honma Kyou quickly set off to follow.

After Chi Feichi walked into the alley, he paused and waited for Honma Kyou to follow before continuing to walk deeper into the alley. "Does your father know that you worked at Cowherd's shop before?"

"He knows that I work there," Kyoshi Honma confessed when he saw that there was no one else in the alley, "but I told him that I was just a waiter in the store, responsible for cleaning and delivering drinks. He might have some suspicion that I was there. He's lying, or maybe he's just worried that I'm a bad example. After hearing that I didn't plan to work in the store anymore, he seemed to be relieved a lot, and he's been encouraging me to find other jobs in the past two days..."

"You bought so many newspapers in the past two days because you wanted to see if there had been any shootings, bombings or armed robberies recently?" Chi Feichi asked in a hissing voice.

Honma Kyou followed Chi Feichi, looked up at Chi Feichi's back, and said in a low voice, "Yes... I have been thinking about who the box will fall into the hands of in the past two days, and whether it will I was found by the police. Will the police find any clues about me from the above, so I want to pay attention to the recent reports..."

Chi Feichi was not surprised by Honma Kyou's behavior of buying a large number of newspapers in the past two days.

Most first-time offenders will feel tortured after committing a crime. Even if they do not feel guilty for their actions, they will worry about being exposed, worry about being arrested or being retaliated against, and worry about the negative consequences of the crime.

At this stage, no matter how calm the offender is on the surface, he will be restless inside, his appetite will decrease, his sleep quality will deteriorate, and he will try to find something to comfort himself from the outside world, such as staring at newspapers and TV news every day, repeatedly Confirm that there are no clues about your crime in the report, so that you can feel a sense of security. Some people may even return to the crime scene, or go around to inquire about related incidents, and become sensitive to related incidents.

This is also a stage when criminals are prone to be noticed by the police due to psychological flaws, or are prone to surrender due to excessive psychological pressure.

Honma Kyou has been like this for the past two days. He has been hiding at home for a long time. On the surface, he is not much different from usual. In fact, his mental state is worse than before. It is probably because he didn't sleep well. He also bought a lot of newspapers and paid special attention to himself. Behavior-related criminal information.

However, Honma Kyou has not returned to the delivery location in the past two days, nor has she surrendered due to excessive psychological pressure. According to their monitoring and attention to Honma Kyou's mobile phone, Honma Kyou has not called anyone to talk about her anxiety, or He searches for crime-related information on the Internet. When Honma goes to the convenience store to buy things in the morning, he will buy a bunch of newspapers and go home to read them. He can also find a suitable reason for his behavior. This psychological quality has actually Excellent.

He is a good criminal.

Since after two days of monitoring, Kyou Honma did not do anything abnormal, it was time for him to meet Kyou Honma and help him relieve his psychological pressure.

He cannot guarantee that Honma Kyou will not be caught for committing a crime. Even if he dares to guarantee so, Honma Kyou will not believe it. However, human beings are social animals. In times when the heart is full of fear and worry, the appearance of similar people can give people It brings a sense of security and hope. For Honma Kyou, he and Midorikawa Saki are allies of criminals and similar people in the same boat with him. Their presence can provide some spiritual support to Honma Kyou.

In addition, he is the mastermind in the case of Honma Kyou transporting prohibited items. If the matter is exposed, he will face a more serious punishment than Honma Kyou. As long as he does not become nervous because of this, Honma Kyou will also follow him. Here I get a reason to encourage myself - people who are in a more serious situation than me are so calm, so I can't act too cowardly!

Moreover, after they had contacted each other twice, Honma Kyou should be able to tell that this was not his first crime, and would treat him as a "senior" as he should be. Honma Kyou's psychological pressure was too great, and he did not resolve this psychological pressure. When you experience something, you will also become somewhat psychologically dependent on him, and you will be more willing to listen to some of his suggestions or persuasion.

Guiding Honma Kyou in the direction he wanted was one of the main purposes of his meeting with Honma Kyou this time.

"I know that the box has been sent out now. Even if I accidentally left any personal clues in the box, there is no way to remedy it," Honma Kyou whispered to Chi Feichi in a low voice, "No matter what No matter how much I pay attention to the news reports, it won't change anything, but I just can't help paying attention to this information..."

"Are you worried about being caught by the police?" Chi Feichi hissed calmly, "I thought that before agreeing to me, you had already imagined the worst outcome and were already willing to accept that outcome."

Honma Kyou was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and reflected, "I did think about the worst outcome before, and I was willing to accept it..."

Before taking action, he had already thought about the outcome of being caught by the police. He knew that this would disappoint his parents and make his family criticized, but he was really fed up with being trapped in poverty. The feeling of being stuck in his throat made him unwilling to passively and powerlessly accept the pain that fate had brought to him in the future. He thought...

At least for once, let him have some control over his life.

That's why he agreed.

Chi Feichi guided Honma Kyou to remember his determination when he made the decision, and hissed, "The situation is far from the worst now. All the anxiety in your heart comes from your bad assumptions about the future. Although I I understand your uneasiness, but I still hope that you will not be enslaved by anxiety and fear. You have been consumed by them for no reason in the past two days. If you continue like this, they will lead you to that bad result. You'd better do it as soon as possible. It would be better to drive them away, or at least control their influence on you.”

Honma listened to the unhurried hoarse voice. For the first time since he delivered the box, he felt peaceful in his heart. It was a kind of tranquility as if nothing had happened. It made him feel a lot more relaxed. "I know...I'll stop buying newspapers tomorrow!"

"You can continue to buy newspapers, but there is no need to buy so many. There is no harm in picking a few newspapers that interest you and that you think have the most effective information, and order them for a long time," Chi Feichi hissed, and quickly Speaking of another thing, "I came to you today because I want to give you the reward I promised you before. You can pay by check, cash, or by bank transfer. In addition, I have another one for you." Maybe a better payment plan. You painted some paintings in high school, right? You seem to be pretty good at painting, and one of your paintings was exhibited in the school. I can arrange for someone to come to your house in the afternoon. Bid one million for the painting you painted, so that when you want to use the money in the future, you will have a valid reason."
