Chapter 602 Collective Docility
Conan didn't know what Fumita Kuniyoshi was thinking, and looked down at the paper slip in his hand, feeling quite thoughtful.
The handwriting on the paper was neat and tidy, strong and forceful, revealing a sense of composure and momentum:
【□○╳△——Fumita Kuniyoshi】
After looking at it for a couple of times, Conan silently put away the paper slip, "As a Detective, exposing Criminals is inherently easy to provoke resentment from the Criminals, Brother Chi doesn't need to take it to heart!"
Hissashi's speed in grasping the Situation was too fast, too easy to give Criminals a Sense of Crisis and pressure, it was normal for Criminals to want to kill Hissashi first.
Hmm... but this guy's handwriting is still so good-looking.
He used to think that neat handwriting was already very good, and practicing calligraphy was something only Old Person would do, but after interacting with Hissashi more, he suddenly felt that practicing calligraphy might not be bad.
Hissashi's handwriting is too enviable.
The paper slip must also be collected!
"I didn't take it to heart." Chi Feichei indicated that he wasn't overthinking it.
Conan turned his head and saw Inspector Megure instructing Suzuki Sonoko and others about taking Written Statement, and lowered his voice to tease, "But to stall him, you actually chatted with him for half an hour, it really was difficult for you."
Chi Feichei truthfully said, "It was almost all him talking."
"What were you talking to him about?" Conan didn't quite believe the 'almost all him talking' sentence, but thinking that Chi Feichei wouldn't lie to him, he was a little curious, "A Criminal who is eager to destroy Criminal Evidence, how did you get him to chat with you for so long?"
Chi Feichei paused for a moment, "It's too Troublesome to explain."
The beverage Fumita Kuniyoshi bought for his Colleague, although not very expensive, were not cheap, belonging to the middle and upper range, and he didn't uniformly buy the same kind, seemingly picking them according to each person's taste.
Fumita Kuniyoshi didn't change into overly expensive Clothes or Mobile Phone, things that are easily noticed, otherwise it would make people Sense that his Economy was abnormal, but the bento box for packing Lunch was the latest model with a very high Price. When asked about it, Fumita Kuniyoshi would probably say something like, 'Oh dear, it's my wife, I also told her not to buy such an expensive bento box, but she...' and so on.
In short, it's not obvious flaunting of wealth, just putting effort into small Details, waiting for others to ask, and then pretending 'it's nothing' and saying words that make people envious to the Heart.
And when Kazunobu Chiba was questioning, only Fumita Kuniyoshi was answering three questions for every one question, appearing very cooperative, with a calm and natural Expression. Others didn't seem to find it strange either, so it wasn't eagerness to defend himself, but rather that Fumita Kuniyoshi was usually like this.
In addition, from the tone of voice, Posture, walking Posture, gestures used during conversation, and other aspects combined, it could be seen that this was an extroverted and talkative person who cared about other people's Views and had a strong desire to Performance.
Fumita Kuniyoshi's Embezzlement was probably not because he liked to squander Money, but because he wanted to gain Praise and attention from others.
Then he would satisfy Fumita Kuniyoshi's vanity and desire to Performance, while expressing recognition, Trust, and reliance.
In fact, Fumita Kuniyoshi should be the kind of person that everyone thinks is not bad, but he has no close Friend.
A person with too strong a desire to Performance, unless they are longtime close friends, is not easy to make good friends.
Performance, recognition, and Praise are needed by everyone. Always making people feel sour, preventing others from Performance, only wanting others to Praise oneself, how could people feel comfortable in their Hearts?
Even if others think Fumita Kuniyoshi is not a bad person, and can ignore that little bit of 'uncomfortable feeling', they definitely wouldn't be willing to interact with Fumita Kuniyoshi often and watch Fumita Kuniyoshi show off.
Just now, when Fumita Kuniyoshi faced him, his initial Impression would classify him as 'someone from the Police Officer side', and classify himself as 'Criminal', Subconsciously putting himself at a disadvantage.
And at This Time, when he showed an Attitude of 'I discovered that you handle Interpersonal Relationship well, I can't, I'm a Newcomer in the Workplace, how did you do it, I want to ask for advice, you are a Senior who has been in the job for quite some Time, you should be able to guide me', it was easy to arouse Fumita Kuniyoshi's desire to Performance. After all, guiding someone in an 'advantageous' position is a very fulfilling thing, and thinking that they were not chatting about the Case anyway, he relaxed his Vigilance. Coupled with Fumita Kuniyoshi's own Personality, it was easy for him to talk eloquently.
He didn't need to say it explicitly, saying it explicitly would seem too deliberate, just a simple couple of Sentences, enough to let Fumita Kuniyoshi self-brainstorm and gain pleasure through conversation.
Seemingly it was always Fumita Kuniyoshi talking and him listening, but the Pace and Sovereignty of the conversation were in his hands.
Even Fumita Kuniyoshi probably couldn't Understand why he could chat with a stranger for so long.
And facing different People and different Situations, there are different Methods.
If he looked old, it would be inappropriate to 'inquire' about these Workplace Experience from Fumita Kuniyoshi.
And if Fumita Kuniyoshi was an Introverted, thoughtful, and overly sensitive person, he could talk about the Case, using some ambiguous Words to make Fumita Kuniyoshi overthink, for Example, why ask me this, did I make a mistake somewhere...
In short, first control the Sovereignty of the conversation, control the Pace, and everything is not a Problem.
Actually, if he was willing, he could gain Good Impression from many People, but why would he do that?
For People or Matters he was not interested in, his patience was limited, he was too lazy to accommodate and agree with others, too lazy to force Oneself to live in a Method that others liked, and too lazy to say Words that others loved to hear.
Of course, if he was interested, it would be another matter.
Currently, he was quite interested in The Boss, and also had the patience to Research bit by bit, but wanting him to flatter or cater to him, he should just forget about it.
Conan glanced at Chi Feichei, thinking that if it was Troublesome to explain, then he wouldn't explain, it really was Chi Feichei's Style. Suddenly remembering something, he raised his head and asked, "Also... what does that 'X' that Ran and the others mentioned mean?"
"Oh, Cool guy!" Jodie arrived nearby at some point, bent down and put her arm around Conan's shoulder with a smile, speaking with a strange accent, "Your Curiosity is really strong, but at your current age, you don't need to know these things yet! Can you let me and Mr. Chi be alone for a while now? I have very, very Important Matters to talk to him about!"
Conan: "..."
It's this Sentence again.
He asked Wataru Takagi, and Wataru Takagi also said that his age didn't need to know yet, and asking Chi Feichei was also blocked.
What's wrong with Elementary School Student? Can't Elementary School Student know what that Mark means?
Annoying.
"You Kid, don't block the Road here," Suzuki Sonoko directly pulled Conan away, "If you want to ask, go ask Ran, she's sending Email over there~"
Jodie straightened up, folded her arms and smiled as she watched Suzuki Sonoko pull Conan away, suddenly feeling a cold gaze looking at her all the time from the side. Turning her head, she found Chi Feichei staring at her, and immediately showed a troubled Expression, spreading her hands and saying, "Okay, Mr. Chi, I think I should apologize for my Behavior of discussing you behind your back before. I also know a Detective in America. An Incident happened here, so I wanted to ask him to see if he could help. It just so happened that we talked about Life here in Japan. I absolutely didn't mean to make fun of you..."
"I didn't care." Chi Feichei said, "It's much better than you judging me as a British People."
"No, No, No," Jodie raised her index finger, looking like she was seriously correcting him, "Saying 'judging' is a bit too serious. I was just telling the truth that day..."
Brushing it off with a joke, this Matter was considered to have passed.
After leaving the Building, Chi Feichei told Mouri Ran about Chi Kana's visit tomorrow, and bid farewell and left.
The Next Day, Chi Kana and Chi Feichei went to Mouri Detective Agency together.
Mori Kogoro didn't act foolishly, and his Performance throughout the whole process was considered reliable, but he was originally eager to prove that he had many Commissions he could take, but unfortunately, he still failed to prove it in the end.
Mouri Detective Agency was deserted all Day, and Mouri Ran and Conan also went to school, making it seem a bit desolate.
...
Two Days later, Chi Kana went to Doctor Agasa's House and insisted on leaving some of Haibara Ai's upbringing expenses for Doctor Agasa.
As a Godmother, in the Situation where the Child's parents have both Death, she should indeed bear the obligation of raising the Child.
Afterwards, Chi Feichei took Haibara Ai and sent Chi Kana and her group to Narita Airport.
Non-Ink rarely even entered the crowded and chaotic Airport to see Chi Kana off, let alone Hissashi, who followed Chi Feichei at all times.
"...I'll come back to see you when I have Time," Chi Kana squatted down in front of Haibara Ai, speaking in a soft voice as usual, like coaxing a Child, "If you don't have Pocket Money, ask Older Brother for it. If you want to go to Britain, you can let Older Brother take you, and invite Doctor Agasa along the way. When Uncle is knighted, go to Britain with Older Brother, and I'll take you to see the Queen, okay?"
"Okay." Haibara Ai nodded, extremely docile.
Chi Kana reached out her hand and said with a smile, "Want a Cheek Kiss."
Cheek Kiss is also jokingly called an air kiss, bringing faces close and pretending to kiss each other's cheeks.
Haibara Ai stepped forward and hugged Chi Kana, bringing her face close to Chi Kana's face.
Super docile.
Non-Ink flew onto the suitcase, found the best Angle, and tilted its head to admire Haibara Ai's docile face.
This Excitement is worth watching!
Chi Kana touched Haibara Ai's cheek, and gently kissed Haibara Ai's Forehead when she got up. Then she smiled and reached out her hand, looking at Chi Feichei, "Hissashi, Cheek Kiss."
Chi Feichei stepped forward and gave a hug, cheek to cheek.
Non-Ink continued to tilt its head and watch the show.
Today was indeed not a wasted trip, whether it was Master or Ai, their Fur was all stroked smoothly... Master's Old Mom is amazing!
Chi Kana touched Chi Feichei's face, and whispered reproachfully, "In previous years... sorry."
"Even without those Matters, you would still be busy." Chi Feichei replied in a low voice.
Even without the Heart Illness, Chi Kana was busy enough.
This time when she came back, she was also rushing to go to Britain to handle Group Matters. Before going, she had to visit all the People she should visit and finish all the Matters she should discuss.
In the end, it might be about the same, at most, she wouldn't avoid his Connection so much.
Chi Kana took a step back and chuckled softly, "I wanted to hand over all the Things to your Father, and then stay Home to keep you company, but it's impossible to complete the handover in a short Time, and I still need me now. Let's wait a few years... Hmm? Hissashi? Oh right, it's your turn next."
Hissashi had just poked its head out from Chi Feichei's collar when it discovered Chi Kana's face approaching, and obediently stretched its head forward a little, cheek to cheek.
Chi Kana didn't let Non-Ink off either, "Non-Ink."
Non-Ink didn't expect that watching the Play would also involve itself, but looking at Chi Kana's gentle and serious Eyes, when Chi Kana squatted down and approached, it still took the initiative to obediently lean forward and tilted its head to touch her cheek.
Non-Ink level docile.
Chi Kana smoothed out everyone, including the Pets, and expressed satisfaction with the collective docility in her Heart before taking Vincent and his group through Security Check.
Chi Feichei took Haibara Ai's hand and turned to walk out of the Airport.
When they arrived at the Parking Lot, Haibara Ai got into the Passenger Seat, suddenly feeling a little unaccustomed, and couldn't help but Look Towards the direction of the Boarding Gate at the Airport.
She originally thought Chi Kana would be a Female like Kisaki Eri, looking strong and capable, unsmiling, and very dignified.
She didn't expect it to be completely different from what she thought. Being with Chi Kana was very relaxing, as if she could say anything to Chi Kana.
Chi Kana would listen attentively, and even for very small Matters, she would communicate with her patiently and gently.
Even though they had only been separated for a short while, she actually already missed her a little bit in her Heart.
