Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

The four upstairs packed up and headed to a nearby sushi restaurant for lunch.

"Is there really no need for help?" Koshimizu Nanatsu confirmed to Maurilan.

"Don't worry," Mao Lilan smiled. "When my father was a police officer, he and Mr. Takeoka investigated the case together. I think he is very motivated now. It's fine to leave this matter to them."

"Too slow, Tanaka!" urged a chef in the open kitchen, "Have you cut it yet?"

"Ah, sorry!" said a young cook hurriedly.

Conan looked over curiously, and was stunned when he saw the red kitchen knife in the young chef's hand.

Chi Feichi also looked over and recognized the kitchen knife in the other's hand.

It was the kitchen knife that the old woman gave to her grandson, Shota Tanaka, in the incident of the mountain demon mother-in-law.

At the beginning, Shota Tanaka lied that he went to Tokyo to learn to cook, but he had plastic surgery to become a handsome guy, and changed his name to Kahara Fengya to become a cowherd. It seems that after the death of the eldest miss, Shota Tanaka reshaped his face back to its original appearance, and also Changed back to the original name, just like the old woman said, really came to learn to cook.

"What's wrong?" Mao Lilan looked over there curiously.

"It's nothing," Chi Feichi looked back, "the chefs in this shop seem to be good at cooking."

Conan also gave up telling the truth and said with a smile, "The ingredients look fresh too!"

Now that people have started a new life, don't say anything about cheating their family members and having plastic surgery to become a cowherd. It would be bad if it caused people to be talked about behind their backs.

Tanaka Shota has been busy in the open kitchen and didn't notice an acquaintance at the corner table.

After the four of them had lunch, they didn't stop there.

In the summer, after having dinner with friends in the afternoon, we strolled along the shade of the trees all the way to the street corner, talked about the recent arrangements, and went off to do our own things after parting, and life seemed to become leisurely and peaceful.

But the silence did not last long.

The next day, Kogoro Mauri once again occupied the front page of the newspaper, not only the front page of a newspaper, but the content and headlines were even more exciting than the previous day.

The famous detective made a series of mistakes, causing the two to commit suicide...

Insisting on homicide, Maori Kogoro killed another person again...

Suspected as a murder suspect, Arai Kyosuke committed suicide, should Mouri Kogoro be responsible for this...

When Chi Feichi arrived downstairs at the Maori Detective Office, he saw his teacher standing downstairs on the phone.

Maori Kogoro turned to look at Chi Feichi, who was parked on the side, and then looked up at the office's signboard, and said solemnly, "Officer Mumu, I'm Maori, and as of today, I've decided to take down my own. Shop sign……"

At the entrance of the stairs, Koshimi Nanatsuki, who was one step ahead, stood with Maurilan and Conan, looking at Mouri Kogoro who had his back turned to them in astonishment.

Chi Feichi got out of the car, stepped forward, and joined the three secretly onlookers.

Mouri Kogoro put away his phone, turned to look at the four people standing behind him, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"dad……"

Maori Lan worried looking at Maori Kogoro's back, led the way upstairs, and said in a low voice, "He's been like this since last night, and he can't do anything to get his spirits up."

Chi Feichi turned his head to Maori and said, "If it was last night, I could have stopped the report temporarily."

"I thought about calling you, but Dad didn't agree," Mao Lilan sighed, "He said that the deaths of Mr. Pu Sheng and Mr. Arai were true, and it was two lives, even if the newspaper's report was temporarily blocked, There will always be people discussing and caring, so there is no need to cause you any more trouble.”

Chi Feichi looked back, "That's right, the teacher doesn't care what others say."

What Mouri Kogoro cares about is whether those two people killed themselves!

Yueshui Nanatsu frowned and said softly, "Mr. Pu Sheng's suicide is indeed suspicious, and some of Mr. Arai's previous behaviors are also very suspicious, how could it be..."

"The night Mr. Pu Sheng died, around eight o'clock, the neighbor next door to Mr. Arai once heard him calling loudly at home, looked around, and saw him lose his temper with the fax at home," Conan said solemnly, " That is to say, Mr. Arai has an alibi that he could not be the murderer of Mr. Pusheng. Yesterday morning, Uncle Kogoro and Mr. Takeoka went to Mr. Arai, and the police found him around 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Suicide by hanging at home."

"Reporters have been very concerned about Mr. Pu Sheng's incident," Mao Lilan said helplessly, "Yesterday evening, when Dad came out of Mr. Arai's apartment, there were many reporters who heard the wind around the downstairs, facing the reporters' questions. , he couldn't tell at all."

On the second floor, Maori Kogoro was paralyzed on the office chair, his head was thrown back, and his eyes were in a daze.

Mao Lilan greeted the three of them to sit casually, and went to the tea room to call Fei Yingli.

Chi Feichi walked behind the office chair and squatted down, leaning in to look at his teacher's upside-down face.

It's not that decadent at all. When he first came over, the expression on his teacher's face was clearly thinking.

When he squatted down to observe, it turned into surprise and doubt...

Mouri Kogoro was startled by Chi Feichi's indifferent face suddenly approaching, and looked at the eyes that reflected his figure in confusion.

Those purple eyes have no personal emotions, they are transparent and clear, like a mirror reflecting him.

To put it simply, his apprentice stared at him with an emotional look.

What does this kid want?

Chi Feichi stared silently at Mouri Kogoro's eyes.

Since he is not so decadent, why is his teacher like this?

Pretending to be depressed, it should not be to trick his wife into coming, all he can think of is to let others relax their guard.

If someone is harassing Maori Kogoro and seeing Maori Kogoro depressed and decadent, he will probably relax his vigilance with joy, and if someone takes advantage of and guards against Maori famous detectives, and sees famous detectives like this, they will also dislike Maori Kogoro. Be prepared.

Mouri Kogoro stared silently at Chi Feichi's eyes.

What does his apprentice want to do?

Isn't this kid sick?

As a teacher, does he cheer up and be a good example?

But he has his own ideas and doesn't want to act rashly.

The teacher and apprentice have two faces, one front and one opposite, on a horizontal line, staring at each other's eyes. Conan and Yueshui Nanatsuki are sitting on the sofa, looking suspiciously.

"Mr. Maury..."

At the door, Shibu Takagi, Chiba Kazuo reached out, breaking the strange silence in the room.

"Huh?" Shibu Takagi stepped forward, looked curiously at Kogoro Mouri who was leaning against him, and Chi Feichi who was squatting behind the office chair, and cast inquiring glances at Conan, Nanatsuki Koshimizu, and Mourilan at the door of the pantry.

What's happening here?

The other three: "..."

Don't ask them, they don't know either.

Chi Fei returned to his senses late, looked at Mouri Kogoro's surprised look, smiled slightly, and said softly, "You have a good rest, but don't try to leave everything to us."

Takagi Shibu, Chiba Kazuno: "!"

Mr. Chi is so gentle as if he was pretended to be replaced!

Yueshui Nanatsuki: "!"

Although brother Xiaoqi spoke in such a gentle tone, it caused her to think of the previous things again, and she always felt a morbid and twisted meaning, but thinking about the coldness on her face, Xiaoqi always called her more and more... … She suddenly envied Mr. Maori who had an accident.

Mao Lilan: "!"

Thinking about the usually indifferent response from Brother Feichi to her "what's the matter" and "get it", she suddenly felt that her father had been treated surprisingly well.

Conan: "!"

Thinking of Chi Feichi's usual reactions to him, "Why are you here?", "Why are you here?", and "What are you doing here?", he suddenly felt that the uncle was worth it this time.

Well, the uncle looks at them who are worried about this, and he should cheer up...

With half-moon eyes, Kogoro Mori raised his hand and waved it weakly, "You go away..."

other people:"……"

Chi Feichi didn't care, got up and went back to the sofa, helping Takagi Shibu and Chiba Kazuno with a calm face, "Officer Takagi, Officer Chiba, please take a seat."

"Ah, good..." After Takagi Shibu sat down, he put the printed document he brought on the table, and turned to look at Kogoro Mouri, who was leaning down, "I heard from the police officer Mumu that Mr. Mouri wants to close his business. Chiba and I are not at ease, come over to see if there is anything I need help with."

Mao Lilan came forward with tea, bent down and put it on the table, and smiled with relief, "Thank you, I'm really sorry for making everyone worry."

"Mr. Mouri has doubts about Mr. Pu Sheng's suicide, I think there is no problem with that," Nanatsuki Yueshui thought for a while, then raised his eyes and confirmed to Chi Feichi, who was sitting opposite, "Mr. Arai did leak the case to reporters, that's why Sure enough, right?"

Chi Feichi looked at Yueshui Nanatsuki and nodded to confirm, "Yes, there is no reason for the newspaper to lie."

When encountering things, she can work hard to calm down and sort out her thoughts carefully. This kind of female detective's demeanor is strangely attractive.

Yueshui Nanatsu felt that Chi Feichi's gaze was sharper than before, a bit piercing, so he couldn't help but look sideways and looked at Shibu Takagi, "Officer Takagi, Mr. Arai has an alibi, I heard Conan say it, but Is it really impossible for him to kill? I mean, is it possible that there is some kind of trick in time?"

"We're here for this," Takagi Shibuya took out a folded map from the printout, opened it, spread it out on the table, and pointed to a point on the map, "This is Mr. Pu Sheng's address, according to Mr. Mouri said that at 8 o'clock on the night of the incident, Mr. Pu Sheng also called him from his home to ask him about the investigation, and around 9 o'clock, Mr. Pu Sheng committed suicide in the woods here... Mr. Arai was confirmed by the neighbors, At home at 8 o'clock in the evening, it takes at least half an hour to drive from his residence to Mr. Pusheng's house, while the woods are in the other direction, it also takes an hour to drive from Mr. Pusheng's house to the woods, and Mr. Arai is at his home at 8:00 If you do, you will definitely not be able to get to the woods around nine o’clock.”

"Also, Mr. Arai lost his temper with the fax that day because the serial mystery novel he was in charge of ~www.NovelMTL.com~ used a time machine to travel back in time to kill the murderer," Kazuno Chiba put the hard copy of the mystery novel on the map , said with a dry smile, "He called to complain that the reader would not accept it. The fax time, the address of the fax machine, and the time he called were all right with the neighbors."

"Then Mr. Arai is absolutely impossible to kill," Maurilan sighed, "right?"

"It seems that it is indeed the case." Takagi Shibu nodded.

"Don't worry about what the reports outside say, just say what we are sure of," Koshimizu Nanatsuki stretched out his hand, pointed at the place on the map where Ryo Usagi's body was found, and asked with a serious look, "Mr. Usagi is so far away from home, Taking a flashlight to commit suicide in the dark woods is so troublesome, the possibility of homicide is very high, then, where is the murderer? If the murderer is not Mr. Arai, where did the murderer who killed Mr. Pusheng go?"

Maurilan, Takagi Shibu, Chiba and Shinji felt a chill on their backs.

If Mr. Pu Sheng is killed, then there will always be a shadow hidden behind the chaotic debate, it seems that it can quietly disappear with the turmoil in the outside world.

When suddenly asked by Detective Yueshui, the room instantly had the atmosphere of a horror novel.
