Chapter 444 This Is Ko... Ko... Kudo?
"It's really over," Morizono Kikuto looked at Officer Otaki. Among them, only Chi Feichei could run around the Crime Scene and the Hotel, and the Police acted as if they didn't see it. "Hassashi, the Culprit is..."
"I promised someone to keep it confidential for now. You guys go back to the Hotel to rest first, and I'll be back in a bit," Chi Feichei said, and walked towards Hattori Heiji who was approaching.
Running around tonight, taking care of this side and then that side, it's a bit busy.
"Brother Chi," Hattori Heiji said, approaching and leaning close to Chi Feichei's ear, "Let's go check on Conan, I'm a little worried."
"Okay," Chi Feichei nodded and walked towards the Stairs.
In the Stairwell, Conan's bitter laughter echoed twice, "Haha... This is too ridiculous. I wanted to prove your innocence, but the more I tried to prove it, the more Evidence pointing to you as the Culprit kept appearing..."
"Oh, what a pity, little brother," Ray Curtis's voice followed, "What you just said is not enough to convict me... The Clothes I'm wearing were brought by my agent as spare Clothes, because I sweat a lot, so I've already changed. Now that set of dirty Clothes has been taken away by my agent, and it's probably already at the Hotel's Laundry Center..."
In the Stairwell on the next Floor, Hattori Heiji stopped, frowned, and stood against the Wall.
Chi Feichei didn't go up further either, and eavesdropped at the Wall Corner with Hattori Heiji.
"What about the Shoe?" Conan listened to Ray Curtis's unscrupulous sophistry, feeling a little disappointed, and directly pointed out the Ironclad Proof, "If it's an Automatic Pistol, when the Magazine flies out, Gunsmoke will also scatter with it, but if it's a Revolver, the Gunsmoke will be centered on the gun body and scatter radially, so the Shoe will also be stained! Ray... You should have been wearing Shoes when you committed the crime, right? Because you have to kick the Ball very accurately. Since you haven't changed your Shoes yet, it should still be detectable now, right? This is the decisive Evidence!"
Ray Curtis's expression changed slightly.
Conan turned his back to Ray Curtis, lowered his head, and said softly, "You should Surrender quickly! You go to the Police to Surrender, Ray... Even if I beg you..."
"I'm sorry, I can't Surrender," Ray Curtis said with a helpless expression, "If I'm arrested, my fans and Family will be very, very sad... I will follow your advice and wipe these Shoes clean. I will find a Statement to deceive the Police."
Saying that, he was about to Turn Around and leave.
"Wait a minute! The things you need to confess are not just this one, right?" Conan was completely disappointed. He had to admit that Chi Feichei was right. Ray Curtis was no longer the Soccer Ball hero in his mind, but just a person whose will had been worn down and was still trying to find Reasons to escape punishment at this time. Then, the sadness in his heart turned into anger. He turned around and kicked the Soccer Ball in his hand out, sternly saying, "The Iron Wall of Europe... Ray Curtis!"
Ray Curtis didn't catch the Soccer Ball that he should have been able to catch, and was knocked to the ground. Under Conan's questioning, he admitted that he was addicted to Poison and his Murder Motive.
The previous fabricated Report caused his Wife to suffer a great blow and commit Suicide due to Neurasthenia. In order to lure that Reporter, he simply followed what was said in the Report and took Contraband, luring the person to Japan and plotting to Murder him...
Ray Curtis couldn't get rid of the Injury brought by his Wife's death, and continued to be addicted to Poison.
"Stop talking, Ray..."
Conan's Expression was heavy and sad. He said in English, "Even if life is hard and difficult, it shouldn't be your Excuse for drug use and Murder. Losers should be willing to accept the Red Card..."
Ray Curtis was moved, got up and left, and took the initiative to Surrender to the Osaka Police Station.
Hattori Heiji watched Ray Curtis leave, then looked up at the Hallway above where there was no sound. Feeling worried, he was just about to ask Chi Feichei if he wanted to comfort Conan, when he turned his Head and found that Chi Feichei was walking out of the Hallway.
This...
What's the Situation?
What's wrong with Brother Chi again?
Should he comfort Conan now? Or should he follow Brother Chi to see what's going on?
He's just one person, and can't split himself in half.
Where should he go now? Waiting Online, it's quite urgent.
"Where's the person?"
A Sound suddenly came from the Corridor Entrance.
Huh?
Hattori Heiji raised his Head in confusion, and saw Chi Feichei walking over with a Middle-aged Man.
Conan was walking down the Stairs in frustration when he suddenly felt a meaningful Gaze. A Figure suddenly appeared in his mind, and he quickly raised his eyes to Look. Soon, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Thank goodness, thank goodness, it's not Zhi Ming Fukuyama, the Great Demon King.
But why is this Gaze so familiar?
"Has this Child suffered some kind of blow?" The Middle-aged Man withdrew his Line of Sight of Observation and spoke to Chi Feichei in a low voice, "I'll try to chat with him first..."
Conan: "..."
Wait, this Routine of chatting is also a bit familiar...
"Let go of me!" Mori Kogoro's exasperated voice came from Outside the Door, "I don't want to go to the Psychiatry Department! I'm fine! Hassashi, you bastard kid, get out here!"
"Sir, please calm down..."
Hattori Heiji raised his Head blankly, looking at Mori Kogoro, who was being tightly held by two Men at the Entrance, his dark face even more bewildered, "Brother Chi, what is this..."
"Help them find a Psychologist to enlighten them about the knots in their hearts. It might be better for them," Chi Feichei said with a natural and calm Expression.
The Middle-aged Man nodded, "Mr. Chi's awareness and concepts are very correct. Sometimes, if your Emotion or State is not right, you must seek a Doctor in time. Don't be resistant, don't feel ashamed..."
(;Д)!
Conan was Be Confused for a moment, and really wanted to ask this Man, do you know that the person next to you just came out of the best Mental Hospital in Tokyo, without a Proof of Cure, confronted the Doctor in the Hospital, and the Doctor had no choice but to let him out because he was afraid he would be more depressed, and he still doesn't Take Medicine according to the Doctor's orders!
This is called awareness and correct concepts?
Definitely teasing him!
The most abnormal person here is Chi Feichei, okay!
However, seeing that Middle-aged Man turn his Head and smile at him as kindly and gently as Zhi Ming Fukuyama, Conan still felt a tremor in his heart, ran to Chi Feichei, hugged his leg with a bang, and looked up at Chi Feichei with a pitiful look, acting cute in a childish voice, "I don't want to go to any Hospital! Brother Chi just left me and walked away, and I couldn't find him anywhere. Now you want to send me to the Hospital again, I don't want to!"
"Pfft!" Hattori Heiji next to him couldn't help but burst out laughing.
This is Ko... Ko... Kudo?!
The Middle-aged Man was a little puzzled and looked at Chi Feichei, "This Child was in a bad Mood before, because..."
"I sent my Teacher back before, and I didn't know he was looking for me," Chi Feichei said calmly, reaching out and rubbing Conan's Hair. He continued to say to the Middle-aged Man, "Now it seems, he should be having an Emotion tantrum with me. Sorry, for the Troublesome."
"Not at all, you really care about this Child," the Middle-aged Man said with a smile, "Some Guardians are like this. When their Children have Abnormality, it's like encountering a flood or a wild beast, worrying about this and that. This is not wrong, but you don't need to be too nervous. You should tell the Child when you leave in the future. Children are sometimes very sensitive and especially afraid of being abandoned..."
After a lot of blah blah blah, seeing Chi Feichei nodding in response from time to time, the Middle-aged Man felt a little gratified. What a good Young Man, "Then I'll go check on your Teacher's side..."
Chi Feichei: "Take care."
Handle Psychologist, he is professional!
After the Man left, Conan immediately let go of his hand, his Face turned cold, and he stood aside to continue returning to his sad and melancholy thoughts.
He doesn't want to chat and talk with anyone. He just wants to be quietly melancholy for a while, is that okay?
Handle Psychologist, he is tentatively moving forward on the road to professionalism...
On the side, Hattori Heiji watched the whole process, opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say a word.
Kudo's Face-changing speed is too scary.
He actually acted so exaggeratedly.
Are you sure you really don't need to see a Doctor?
Suddenly, he realized that the people around him are very strange. He seems to have never seen the World clearly...
Bewildered, at a loss.
...
The next Day.
Hattori House.
Conan sat on the Wooden Stairs in the Backyard Corridor, propping his chin with one hand, staring blankly at the ground in a daze.
In the Courtyard, Chi Feichei took the Raw Meat Slice handed over by Hattori Shizuka and put it on the grill.
Inside the Room, Kazuha Toyama and Mouri Ran quietly poked their Heads out, looking at Conan's Figure.
"Did this Child really say he's not going to watch the game at Nagai Stadium?" Kazuha Toyama asked in a low voice.
"Mm..." Mouri Ran's eyes were full of worry.
"But wasn't he still looking forward to it before?" Kazuha Toyama said, "Could it be because Curtis isn't playing?"
"But, besides Curtis, there are many world-renowned Football Players in that Competition," Mori Kogoro said, stroking his chin, "Why don't we have Hassashi call a Doctor over?"
Last night he was very resistant to going to the Psychiatry Department, but after going there, two Doctors kept him company and chatted with him, talking about the Life of Middle-aged Men, talking about trivial Conflicts and small happiness at Home, talking about Liquor and current affairs. After hearing that he was Mori Kogoro, they were even more enthusiastic...
They even went for a few drinks together last night.
Everyone there is a Talent, and they speak so nicely, especially stress-relieving!
"It's still better not to, Conan doesn't seem to like that kind of Place," Mouri Ran said hesitantly, "I'm worried that if Conan becomes like Shinichi, it will be terrible..."
In front of the grill, Chi Feichei sprinkled Seasoning on the half-cooked Meat Slice, and Fragrance filled the air.
Hattori Heiji, who wanted to step forward to persuade Conan, stopped and glanced sideways.
Conan, who was sitting in self-isolation, twitched his nose, glanced sideways at Chi Feichei, and then turned his Head away again.
"Shinichi, he..." Mouri Ran paused. The smell of barbecue is so good, it's a bit distracting. "He... When his favorite Things have flaws, he will be like a Child..."
Chi Feichei flipped the Barbecue and sprinkled a little Spices on it.
"Start to completely hate and abandon that..." Mouri Ran said haltingly, "That thing..."
"Is... Is that so..." Kazuha Toyama stared at the Grill over there.
"Shou... Should be..." Mori Kogoro also stared at the Grill, completely unaware of what he was talking about.
Mouri Ran suddenly shook her Head. No, Conan is still sad. How could she still be thinking about eating Barbecue? "Anyway... Huh?"
Conan, who was sitting on the Step, silently Get Up, walked to the Grill, looked up, Expressionless, Half-Moon Eyes staring at Chi Feichei.
Is he doing it on purpose!
Otherwise, Chi Feichei could just grill in the Kitchen, why in the Courtyard?
He's actually using Delicious Food to Temptation him, it's simply hateful.
The most hateful thing is that he actually couldn't help but compromise.
Because it looks like it's really Delicious Food...
Chi Feichei flipped the Barbecue again, sprinkled Spices on the other side, and broke the silence first, "Have you heard of 'Evening Glow'?"
Conan listened to that familiar voice with a calm and unwavering tone. For some reason, the depression in his heart eased a little, and he said in a muffled voice, "Of course I've heard it. I'm listening to Miss Cang Mu's New Song."
Hattori Heiji also stepped forward, smiling and helping to ease the Atmosphere, "I'm listening too, after all, it's a Song written by Brother Chi..."
(End of Chapter)
"It's really over," Morizono Kikuto looked at Officer Otaki. Among them, only Chi Feichei could run around the Crime Scene and the Hotel, and the Police acted as if they didn't see it. "Hassashi, the Culprit is..."
