"Mmm, Ai gave it to . It's perfect for wearing these days," Chi Feichei said.
"How's my taste?" Haibara Ai asked.
"Good," Chi Feichei answered crisply.
Haibara Ai's lips curved up slightly, and she asked again, "We found an incident, do you want to investigate together?"
"Hey, hey, we're not even sure what the situation is..." Conan was speechless.
"Anyway, we don't have anything else to do, right? Let's just treat it as entertainnt." Haibara Ai looked relaxed.
They ran into Chi Feichei on the road, Hissashi woke up too, and even t Non-Ink. He's in a great mood~!
"Okay," Chi Feichei agreed, "What incident did you encounter?"
"It's this..." Mitsuhiko handed over two S-shaped Hooks and a gold Ring, and said seriously, "We were walking on the Road when this was thrown onto the Road! Two Hooks plus a Ring, it's an SOS distress signal!"
Chi Feichei silently took out Gloves from his Pocket, put them on, and took the Hook to examine it.
Conan was Speechless, hey hey, isn't he taking this too seriously?
Ayumi turned her Head to look at the Building next to them, "It must have been thrown from a Window of this Building, but when we turned to look, all the Windows of the Building were closed. We don't know which Ho it was thrown from..."
"Soone must be imprisoned in a Room in this Building," Genta added, "So we were just about to go investigate that Building!"
"It's definitely necessary to investigate," Chi Feichei said, looking at the Hook, "There's Lipstick on it. It was dropped while being bitten, so that person's hands might be tied."
"The Ring is engraved with 'M to A', and there's a Date. It should be a Wedding Ring," Haibara Ai explained from the side, "The person asking for help should be a Woman. Judging by the size of the Ring, it should be a woman with thicker fingers. Her husband and her Na start with M and A respectively."
Chi Feichei nodded, handed the Hook and Ring to Mitsuhiko, and reminded, "It's also possible that a woman gave it to a man."
"Like the Ring Necklace you're wearing?" Conan teased.
"I bought this Oneself," Chi Feichei said, "It's a pair with Non-Ink."
Conan looked closely and saw the black Coin Pendant under Non-Ink's Black Feather, finding it amusing for a mont.
"Ring Necklace?" Haibara Ai looked up at Chi Feichei.
She wanted to see!
"This." Chi Feichei pulled out the Ring Necklace from under his Clothes, showed it to Haibara Ai, and then put it back under his Clothes.
Ayumi: "Does this count as a Couple Necklace?"
Mitsuhiko: "Wearing a Couple Necklace with a Crow."
Genta: "Not having a Girlfriend is really too pitiful..."
Chi Feichei: "..."
-_-
Whether or not I have a Girlfriend is none of your business!
Haibara Ai was thoughtful. At that ti, that Circle was close, so it looked a bit bigger, but the width and thinness of this Ring... no, looking at one side of the Circle, it's exactly the sa as that shining Circle.
There are many Rings of the sa style, and Conan also analyzed that Chi Feichei didn't have Ti to save her, but Chi Feichei is the only one around who has this kind of Ring, and he even wears it on a Necklace. Isn't that a bit too coincidental?
A group of people went to the Building to investigate, with Haibara Ai following behind, walking and pondering.
Too much of a coincidence, it's very likely the Truth.
But, if Chi Feichei saved her, how much does Chi Feichei know?
Was it that Day at the morial Service, when he inadvertently saw her being taken away? Or...
Recalling the first ti she t Chi Feichei, Haibara Ai's heart skipped a beat.
That Day, she felt an Extrely Dangerous aura from Chi Feichei, that feeling was no different from encountering people from the Organization. Could it be...
But that's impossible.
Based on the Treatnt Situation they learned about at Aoyama Fourth Hospital that Day, Chi Feichei went out to buy Books that Day, and was accompanied by a Doctor the whole ti. Before that, he was under Doctor Surveillance every Day. It's impossible for him to be soone the Organization sent to intercept her.
And if Chi Feichei were a person from the Organization, he would definitely know she's a Betrayer. It's impossible for him to not take Action all this ti, right?
At least until now, Chi Feichei hasn't shown any intention to investigate anything about her or Conan. In Conan's Words, he's a Fellow who has absolutely no Curiosity.
Haibara Ai walked, turning her Head to look at Chi Feichei.
She didn't feel any Danger aura...
Mmm... It's probably because Chi Feichei was wearing Black Clothes that Day, and she was too nervous and had a Fever. She must have been mistaken...
Chi Feichei saw Haibara Ai walking and almost bumping into the Glass. With quick hands and eyes, he pulled Haibara Ai's Schoolbag, stopping her face less than a centiter from the Glass, "Watch where you're going."
Haibara Ai turned her Head and stepped back, Speechless in her heart. If she had really bumped into it, she would have lost face...
Chi Feichei still didn't Know that he was almost exposed. Suppressing the doubt in his heart, he calmly asked, "Why haven't you been walking properly Recently?"
Could it be that after becoming a Loli, people also gradually beco muddle-headed?
Haibara Ai recalled that flat-ground fall where she didn't even fall, feeling a bit embarrassed. How was she supposed to answer that?
"Be more careful in the Afterwards," Chi Feichei instructed, and entered the Door.
Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi, who had entered a step ahead, stopped in front.
Haibara Ai suppressed the embarrassnt in her heart and asked calmly, pretending to be composed, "What's wrong?"
Mitsuhiko turned his Head and explained, "This Building is controlled by an Automatic Lock, and the Door can't be opened."
Haibara Ai pointed behind them and reminded, "Soone's coming out."
When soone ca out, the Glass Automatic Door opened, and the three Children imdiately ran inside.
"Thank you!"
Haibara Ai and Conan also followed and ran inside, but Chi Feichei didn't move.
"Huh? Brother Chi hasn't co in yet!" Genta said, and was about to press the Switch.
"You guys go investigate, I'll wait for you," Chi Feichei stated that he wasn't going.
Conan: "..."
As expected, Chi Feichei doesn't believe there's any incident either, right?
He just ca to bring them to play...
The three Children looked at each other. They would still dare to act spoiled and be cheeky with Doctor Agasa, but facing Chi Feichei, it was usually okay, but once Chi Feichei seriously refused, even complaining felt like sothing they couldn't quite say.
"Then... we..." Genta originally wanted to say, 'We won't tell you our Investigation Outco either,' but when Chi Feichei looked at him coldly, he instantly swallowed it back, "We'll go investigate, Brother Chi, you wait for us!"
He felt like he had instantly learned so bad habits of adults and was no longer pure...
Chi Feichei nodded, "Good luck."
Encouraged, Ayumi and Mitsuhiko nodded excitedly. Even Genta forgot his strange Idea from just now. Discovering there was no Reception here, they decided to look at the Doorplates of the Rooms from the First Floor to the Ninth Floor that faced the Road.
After the Junior Detective League left, Chi Feichei turned around and went out the Door.
"Master, aren't you going to play with them?" Non-Ink said, "Relaxing your Mood a bit isn't bad either!"
Hissashi asked almost at the sa ti, and what he said was not much different, showing great Tacit Agreent.
"They're Children. Even if they're not residents and are running around in the Building, those people won't mind too much. It's not suitable for to go. I'll be treated as a suspicious person," Chi Feichei walked towards the Phone Booth, opened the Door, and found a Phone Book next to the Public Phone, "If we're just investigating Nas, there's no Need to be so Troubleso."
Landline Phones are still common now. In the Public Phone Booth, the Phone Numbers and Registered Nas of Registered Nas of Hos in the nearby area will all be listed in it.
Moreover, according to the Number, they can also lock down the Users of this Building to find them.
He didn't Rember this Incident, but it's very simple to investigate.
It's also like giving Non-Ink and Hissashi a lesson. There are many Investigation channels.
As Animals, they definitely can't go ask other people like Humans do. Learning to find channels is very important.
After flipping through the Phone Book, Chi Feichei left the Phone Booth and went to the Bicycle parking area, "Leaving Nas on Bicycles is a bad habit. It easily leaks Oneself's Information."
Non-Ink looked at the Nas on the Bicycles, "These people really don't pay attention to Privacy..."
"But it's understandable. After All, they're Ordinary People." Chi Feichei turned around and went back to the Building again to check the Mailboxes. After waiting for a while, the five Children of the Junior Detective League ca Go Downstairs.
Chi Feichei knocked on the Glass Door, and Ayumi imdiately ran over to open the Door.
Mitsuhiko lowered his Head and looked at the Notebook, compiling and organizing, "In other Words, there are now 6 suspicious Hos..."
Haibara Ai was also playing the Detective Ga very seriously, "Among them, only the Surnas are marked on the Doorplates of 4 Hos."
"Which four Hos?" Chi Feichei asked.
"Mmm..." Mitsuhiko looked at the Notebook, "The Igarashi Ho at 205..."
"Igarashi Toru," Chi Feichei said.
"Huh?"
Five pairs of Eyes stared at Chi Feichei.
"I Just Now went to check the Mailboxes, Phone Book, and Bicycles Outside," Chi Feichei said.
Conan Speechless, this Fellow's Search Command Ability is really... terrifying!
"So Brother Chi wasn't being lazy!" Genta exclaid.
"Igarashi Toru, his Na starts with T. Then, next is..." Haibara Ai looked at the Record in the Notebook, "The Shima Ho at 305."
Chi Feichei reported the Nas, "Shima Masakazu, Shima Asuka."
"The husband's Na starts with M, and the wife's Na starts with A," Mitsuhiko thought for a mont, and said seriously, "This Ho is a perfect match!"
"Let's confirm the others again," Conan also looked at the Notebook, "The Sakurai Ho at 805?"
"Sakurai Yoshio," Chi Feichei said.
"His Na starts with Y, so it's not this Ho..." Conan crossed out the Na, "Also, what about the Shindo Ho at 905?"
Chi Feichei: "Shindo Eisuke."
"Starting with E, then it's not this Ho either," Mitsuhiko crossed out the Na in the Notebook, "Also, there's Mr. Ishida Michihiko at 705. His Na starts with M, but we Don't Know if he's married or not, and we also Don't Know his Wife's Na..."
"There are no Clues Outside," Chi Feichei indicated that there was no more Information Outside.
"Then let's go ask the people who live here!" Ayumi suggested.
Haibara Ai handed her Notebook to Chi Feichei, and explained while following him, "Besides the Ishida Ho at 705, which we still can't confirm, the remaining matches are the Shima Masakazu and Shima Asuka at 305. Also, Uehara Akihiko and Uehara Satomi at 605, whose Nas start with A and M respectively. If it's like you said, a Wedding Ring given by a woman to a man, then that also fits."
A group of people took the Elevator to the 6th Floor. Genta stepped forward first and pressed the Doorbell of 605.
"This is the Ho with A and M reversed!" Mitsuhiko said.
Genta also said, "I even got it wrong when I ca over Just Now."
The Door clicked open a Crack, and the Woman wearing a Green Coat had a very unpleasant Expression.
"Hello, Aunt!" Mitsuhiko greeted.
The Woman saw a group of Children and didn't see Chi Feichei on the other side. Her Expression was gloomy, "What is it?"
Mitsuhiko, Ayumi, and Genta were startled.
Chi Feichei walked over, instantly changing his Expression, revealing a smile. His Gaze was harmless and gentle, and his Tone also beca gentle, "Sorry to bother you. I'm an Elentary School Teacher, and I'm bringing these Children to do a Social Survey."
The Expressions on the three Children's faces instantly changed from startled to horrified. They stiffened their necks and slowly looked up, staring at Chi Feichei with a Gaze as if they had seen a ghost.
Even Conan and Haibara Ai were no exception.
Th-This... Is this Chi Feichei?
This person who looks like a kind, amiable Elder Brother next door... is he Chi Feichei?
