Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

After waiting for a while, there was the faint sound of a car driving away from the detective armband, and then it was quiet again.

After that, until Mori Kogoro came back from the phone call, there was no more movement.

"Officer Megure said he would get people to pay attention," Mori Kogoro said solemnly, "but it's still not sure that they really met the murderer, and the time since they lost contact with them is still short, so they can't file a case for investigation, and the police didn't Ways to help a lot.”

"Then should we go out and look for it?" Mao Lilan asked.

"The clicking sound at the beginning was the sound of metal locks, the locks on a non-fully enclosed truck," Chi Feichi said, "then it was the sound of cloth rubbing against the solidified cement, and finally the sound of the car leaving. There is a slight rattling sound between the engine and the walking, it is indeed a truck transporting goods, they should be in a concrete building, and they saw someone killing someone or seeing a corpse..."

"The murderer was still there at the time, so they didn't dare to speak loudly," Conan also thought about it carefully. "After that, Mitsuhiko said something like 'he seems to be carrying the dead out'..."

"That is to say, the murderer may have killed someone where they were, and then transported the body away in a truck," Mori Kogoro rubbed his chin for analysis, "or maybe the murderer transported the body to their location by truck." After removing the body from the car, they drove away...then they are hiding somewhere, planning to wait for the murderer to leave before coming out? But the detective badge accidentally fell off, and they haven't been found yet?"

"You don't know them well enough." Chi Feichi said concisely.

Conan thought of a possibility, his eyelids twitched, "No way..."

"Huh?" Mao Lilan was puzzled.

"They may have followed." Conan bit the bullet and said.

"This..." Mao Lilan forced a smile, "Xiaoshu is still with them, if Xiaoshu is frightened and starts crying, the murderer will find out..."

It's over, I can't go on.

Three seven- and eight-year-old children and a one-and-a-half-year-old child took the initiative to follow a murderer... This is not a risk, this is death!

"It may also be that they plan to leave that place first after they are safe, and then call us." Conan held a little hope.

"Then wait for them to contact you." Chi Feichi said.

Mori Kogoro nodded, "This is the only way to go now, wait at least another 20 minutes."

"Don't worry," Chi Feichi said, "I told Xiaoshu that if you encounter a gangster, don't resist, tell him that he has money at home, and let the gangster call to ask for a ransom."

Mao Lilan nodded, still worried.

Doing so can really stabilize the gangster.

With contact, maybe you can get useful clues.

However, sure a one and a half year old child can follow suit?

...

After waiting for nearly three hours, there is still no news.

On the way, Mori Kogoro took Conan out, went to the street corner store and asked the clerk, trying to find the whereabouts of several children, but he couldn't find anything, so he had to turn back.

Just when Mao Lilan was about to go out to look for it again, an unfamiliar number called Chi Feichi's cell phone.

"...Where are you... Got it, wait for me where you are."

After two sentences, the phone was hung up.

Chi Feichi got up and walked towards the door, "I'll pick them up, Xiaolan, you cook."

"Ah... good!" Mao Lilan nodded subconsciously.

"I'm going too!" Conan ran out and closed the door behind him.

Mori Kogoro regained his senses and scratched his head.

My eldest apprentice hangs up the phone so fast, can't he let him scold those brats?

Forget it, wait until someone comes back to scold you.

More than half an hour later, the roar in the detective agency was heard far away.

"Do you know how dangerous this is?!"

Mitsuhiko, Ayumi, and Motota obediently stood in a row, bowing their heads against Kogoro Mori's spittle.

"You still dare to run around with a one-and-a-half-year-old baby, what should you do if something goes wrong?"

"What did you say that when you saw someone being killed, there was no news, which caused us to worry for so long!"

"For you brats, I ran all over the neighborhood!"

Mori Kogoro spat.

Chi Feichi stood in front of the window, with his back to the others, watching the smoke outside.

When he went downstairs to drive to pick up a group of children, there were people in the car parked at the alley downstairs. When he came back, the people in the car were gone, and the car was still parked there.

When he went to the window to light a cigarette just now, a red spot in the dark alley across the street disappeared very quickly, so fast that people would think it was a hallucination.

Still, he was pretty sure he saw it.

Moreover, there was a gray-white bird standing on the wall of a house in the alley, which completely marked Akai Shuichi's hiding place.

In the alley, Akai Hideichi stood in the shadow of the wall, put the cigarette butt in his hand, and waited quietly for some troublesome person to leave from the window.

Things got complicated again after that troublesome character returned from Boston?

First, when Judy called him, he was accidentally overheard by Chi Feichi.

Although only one complaint was heard, Chi Feichi must have discovered that Zhu Di was sharing something about their group with others.

Afterwards, a woman who had a good relationship with Chi Feichi lived in the apartment building where Zhu Di lived, just above Zhu Di, and that dark-skinned high school student also ran to test Ju Di.

And in the past two days, Judy met that Miss Isogai twice in the elevator room. After testing, it seemed that the other party just resigned and came to Tokyo to open a store, and happened to live there.

However, because Judy took the initiative to ask that Miss Isobe to go shopping and inquire about news, the relationship between the two became closer, and that Miss Isobe also started to invite Judy out.

Now Judy must pay attention to avoiding that Miss Jibei when she goes out, and be careful not to be followed, except when she goes to school to inquire about news, she will be asked out after returning home... He always feels that Judy is being held back.

Originally they planned to let Judy live in Chi Feichi's apartment building, but considering Chi Feichi's sensitivity and the price of that apartment house, they finally gave up.

Unexpectedly, Chi Feichi drove a nail by Judy's side instead.

Whether it is intentional or not, this is indeed a troublesome character.

I ran to the Maori Detective Agency today, and suddenly went out to drive, scaring him, and just now I suddenly ran to the window to smoke...

That guy has just caused Judy a lot of trouble, so why not turn around and come at him again?

Thinking back carefully, he shouldn't have revealed any flaws just now.

...

Maori Detective Agency.

The three primary school students waited for Mori Kogoro to get tired, and bowed in unison, "I'm sorry, we knew we were wrong!"

Mao Lilan couldn't bear to pursue it further, but thinking of the recklessness of the three children, she still warned with a serious face, "You can't do this in the future!"

"Yes~" The three elementary school students continued to pretend to be good.

"Brother Feichi," Mao Lilan turned to look at Chi Feichi who was standing in front of the window smoking a cigarette, "Do you want to say something?"

Mitsuhiko, Ayumi, Genta: "..."

Do it……

Hiroki Sawada stood in front of the sofa, fiddling with the comic books that Conan had left on the sofa, feeling a little sympathetic.

When I came back, I was taught a lesson in turn. It was really miserable.

Fortunately, he is now a one-and-a-half-year-old child, ignorant and normal, and he is still placed in the perspective of a 'victim', and no one criticizes him.

Chi Feichi turned around, put out the cigarette in the ashtray on Kogoro Mouri's desk, and said calmly, "Eat."

"Huh?" Yuan Tai was stunned.

What about scolding? What about criticism?

"Brother Feichi..." Mao Lilan's half-moon eyes.

She asked Chi Feichi if she wanted to say something, because she wanted Chi Feichi to seriously and severely criticize the brat, not for Chi Feichi to announce the dinner.

"They knew they were wrong, but they dare to do it next time. It's useless to say it a hundred times," Chi Feichi hugged Hiroki Sawada and sat down at the dinner table. "Just come back safely."

"Hey..." Mitsuhiko scratched his head and smiled.

How dare you say 'next time'... Brother Chi is talking nonsense!

"Hee hee..." Ayumi was also a little embarrassed.

Yuan Tai was silent for a while, "Ha...uh..."

Forget it, he stopped smiling.

Conan glanced at the three who were smirking speechlessly.

He also felt that these three guys would dare to do it next time.

Maury Langton felt powerless.

Don't say it's useless, Brother Feichi, do you want to be so realistic?

Forget it, eat.

While eating, Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko chatted about the whole process.

"At the store at the street corner, we couldn't buy the rare Kamen Rider cards, so we wanted to take Xiaoshu to another street to have a look," Ayumi said, "But halfway through, Genta suddenly ran to the abandoned building No matter what you say, he won’t listen.”

"Because I saw a mannequin in the window of the building outside, I suddenly thought that I could play house with Xiaoshu," Yuan Taidao said, "It will be more interesting to have a model playing the role of an adult than a group of us children..."

"After we followed up the building, we planned to play with Xiaoshu with a mannequin for a while," Guangyan said, "and suddenly heard someone arguing in the building..."

"Although it was dark inside the building, we did see a figure knocking another person to the ground," Ayumi continued. "After that, the other person lay on the ground without moving, absolutely dead gone."

Mitsuhiko continued, "Then the murderer began to move the corpse. Yuantai and I planned to see if there were any clues in his truck, and by the way, see where he wanted to transport the corpse, so that we could call the police."

"As for Ayumi, let her take Xiaoshu and wait for us in the abandoned building," Motota looked at Ayumi, "but Xiaoshu followed into the cargo compartment of the truck."

"Of course," Conan said with a half-moon glance at the three of them, "you both ran into the cargo compartment, Xiao Shu probably thought you were playing games with him, so he followed, you should think about it anyway." Considering his age, he shouldn't be running around at that time... Then? You all followed?"

Hiroki Sawada silently lowered his head and ate with a spoon, pretending to be a good baby.

"I wanted to take Xiaoshu and leave quickly, but just as I was about to get out of the cargo compartment, the murderer had already brought the body out," Ayumi explained, "We could only hide behind the cardboard box together and watch the murderer take a cotton-wrapped The figure moved into the cargo box and drove into the mountains."

"We also saw a puddle of red oozing from the corpse," Genta couldn't help but look at Hiroki Sawada, "Xiao Shu still wanted to go up to see the red liquid, but we held him back."

Mori Kogoro poured the wine, "Xiao Shu was not frightened into crying, thank God... Feichi, would you like some more?"

Chi Feichi nodded, "Thank you teacher."

It's interesting to watch a group of people treat Hiroki Sawada like a child who doesn't understand anything.
