Chapter 668 Three People Full of Problems [Happy Birthday Chi Feichei]

“Don't take his words to heart, only I know your progress best,” Coach Dong Tianyue comforted Mabuchi Kyohei, then livened up the atmosphere, and said to several children, “Okay, let's talk about everyone's problems first. First is Conan, who performed very well and basically has no problems. In the afternoon, you can practice Swing Motion Training with everyone, or you can try to Serve by yourself.”

“Yes!” Conan responded with a smile, acting cute.

His Swing Motion is definitely fine, after all, his father taught him in Hawaii~

“What is it,” Genta muttered, “Conan is in the limelight again.”

Chi Feichei lowered his head and ate silently.

It's probably because the famous detective's father taught him at the omnipotent Hawaii school again.

Coach Dong Tianyue noticed Genta's little emotions and said with a smile, “As for Genta, your strength is actually greater than theirs, which is very suitable for playing Tennis. Correcting the small mistakes in your movements will make you a Tennis expert~”

“Really…” Genta became happy and felt that his little emotions just now were a bit excessive.

Coach Dong Tianyue nodded and continued, “Then there's Ayumi and the others…”

In the afternoon, Coach Dong Tianyue was correcting Genta, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Haibara Ai's Swing Motion, and at the same time conducting Swing Motion Training, allowing the children to repeatedly practice the correct movements.

Conan couldn't run away and was dragged to practice together with the reason that ‘the Junior Detective League should be neat and tidy’.

Chi Feichei watched for a while, and remembering that there used to be a special Serving Training Room in the Club, with a Machine that delivered balls, as long as he took the ball and faced the Wall to continuously Serve, it would be very suitable for practicing his hand strength control. He took his Tennis Racket and stood up, “Coach Toda, is the Serving Training Room still in the original location?”

Coach Toda was standing in front of the five children watching Swing Motion. Hearing this, he turned his head and smiled, “Are you going to Training? It's still the original location. The Serving Training Room on the left side of the Indoor Training Court on the First Floor should still be available. The equipment inside was updated two years ago, and the door is the same. You can tell if it's in use by looking at the sign at the door.”

Chi Feichei nodded and left with his Tennis Racket.

When Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko saw Chi Feichei leave, they felt a little desperate when they thought that they would have to continue with the boring Swing Motion Training.

“Okay, everyone,” Coach Toda clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention to him, “Hold on for a while longer, and then you can Sparring. But when Sparring, remember to use movements that won't cause injuries!”

As soon as they heard they could Sparring, the three children cheered up again.

Haibara Ai had been serious all along, repeatedly repeating the correct Swing Motion.

She felt that learning Tennis was also good. It seemed that Brother Hassashi could play Tennis and had received professional Coach Training, so he should play well. In the future, when the family goes out to play, they can play Tennis.

Since she was going to play against Chi Feichei, she couldn't be too bad.

Conan was already unwilling, and Coach Toda also said that he didn't need to do correction Training anymore. After practicing for a while, he went to the Restroom, planning not to go back later, and to go to the Serving Training Room to find Chi Feichei.

He didn't know what level that Fellow Chi Feichei played Tennis at. They had never heard Chi Feichei mention that he could play Tennis before…

“…Yes, I saw him at the Tennis Club…”

Footsteps and a young man's voice came from the Restroom entrance.

“Purple eyes are special, and the name matches too, there's no mistaking it…”

Huh?

Conan immediately thought of Chi Feichei and pricked up his ears to listen.

The other party was seemingly calling someone and didn't speak for a while. Outside the Compartment, there was only the sound of water flowing from the Water Tap. After a while, he spoke out intermittently.

“I haven't heard Coach Toda mention him before… Okay, I'll find out about his situation. Don't worry, I won't let him be discovered…”

“Then just say it directly…”

The Water was turned off, and Footsteps went outside again.

“Don't think too much about it. Although this is a bit much to say, everyone should pay for the mistakes they made when they were young…”

In the Compartment, Conan frowned deeply, quietly opened the Compartment door, and walked outside.

It was Mabuchi Kyohei's voice!

He felt that Mabuchi Kyohei's gaze at Chi Feichei was strange before. It turned out that the two people hadn't met, but Mabuchi Kyohei recognized Chi Feichei.

The Corridor outside the Restroom was empty, and Mabuchi Kyohei was already gone.

Conan checked around the Corridor in a circle and discovered that more than one Training Room door sign was lit with a ‘Do Not Disturb’ Indicator Light. He couldn't tell which Training Room Mabuchi Kyohei or Chi Feichei was in. In addition, his phone was in the Locker in the locker room, so he couldn't call Chi Feichei. He could only walk back while distracted.

What did that Fellow Mabuchi Kyohei want to do?

Also, what was the ‘mistake from young time’?

Before he figured out what Conflict the two people had, he couldn't judge what Mabuchi Kyohei wanted to do, but it seemed that Mabuchi Kyohei still wanted to contact Chi Feichei and find out the situation, so temporarily there would be no matter. He would find time to ask Chi Feichei.

When the famous detective was walking back to the outdoor Training Ground absentmindedly, he saw Coach Toda and Makino Yasuhiko talking in front of the Flower Bed outside the Training Ground. They seemingly were arguing, so he curiously crept over.

“…I said, he's offline, and I don't know which Serving Training Room he went to,” Coach Toda looked at Makino Yasuhiko with a cold face, “If you have anything to say, I can help you convey it.”

“Never mind, I wouldn't dare to ask you to help convey it. I'll go and say it to Hassashi myself…” Makino Yasuhiko said, and was about to turn around and leave, “I'll come over again later.”

Coach Toda frowned, “Makino, I've told you before, don't pay attention to him!”

“Toda, I think it's weird… Why do you hate that child so much?” Makino Yasuhiko suddenly stopped footsteps, turned his head to look at Coach Toda, and after saying this, without waiting for Coach Toda to answer, he smiled and laughed sarcastically, and left directly, “Ten years ago, that matter happened, I didn't expect he would still be willing to come here. I have a lot to say to him!”

Coach Toda watched Makino Yasuhiko leave, then turned around and went to the Restroom.

At the Flower Bed entrance of the Indoor Training Court, Conan stood in the Shadow, avoiding Coach Toda's line of sight. He suddenly paused and walked to the back of the Flower Bed.

He just now saw the Flower Bed plants moving unnaturally, could it be…

Sure enough, Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi were hiding sneakily at the back of the Flower Bed, and even Haibara Ai was standing aside.

Genta originally wanted to follow Coach Toda on tiptoe, but was startled by Conan suddenly coming over, “Ah…”

Mitsuhiko quickly reached out a hand and tightly covered Genta's mouth.

Ayumi was also startled. After seeing clearly that it was Conan, she patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, “Conan, it's you…”

A minute later, Conan and the others set off and returned to the outdoor Tennis Court.

“Just now Makino Coach came over to find Brother Ike. Coach Toda said swing motion training would end here first, and afterwards he left with Makino Coach,” Ayumi explained, “Because we thought that there would be sparring next, and you went to the Restroom and haven't come back, so we intended to find you…”

“Of course, also because Coach Toda and Makino Coach's relationship seemingly isn't very good,” Mitsuhiko scratched his head and added, “We worry that they might fight, so we intended to go up and check…”

“Unexpectedly, we listened to an important point of content.” Haibara Ai took over and summarized.

Conan stroked his chin in thought. It was indeed not simple, and the amount of information was large…

“Coach Toda said Makino Coach is interested in Brother Ike, while Makino Coach actually said Coach Toda hates Brother Ike,” Ayumi couldn't think clearly, “But, Brother Ike just looks a bit indifferent, but he is a very good person. Coach Toda is also a very good person, how could he hate Brother Ike?”

“Could he be lying?” Genta speculated.

“Genta, please!” Mitsuhiko speechlessly reminded him, “They shouldn't know we are hiding there eavesdropping. Only two people were talking, there's no need to say fake words, right?”

“Moreover, also no need to lie to children. Coach Toda also didn't refute by saying ‘Where do I dislike him?’” Haibara Ai said.

“But, I think Coach Toda and Brother Chi's relationship is very good, where is there a problem!” Genta argued, saying.

Mitsuhiko sighed a bit, “This is adult life, hypocrisy, right?”

Conan: “……”

Haibara Ai: “……”

Hey, as children, no need to emit such a mature sigh, right?

But coming back to the point, the interaction between Coach Toda and Chi Feichei indeed can't see what's going on. If two people harbor resentment towards each other, they can still be kind in front of others, then these two people's acting skills are really formidable.

“What is Makino Coach planning? Not clear yet, but he seemingly wants to say something to Brother Hichiji. We can check first. If he wants to say something excessive, just say go home and it's okay,” Haibara Ai sorted out her thoughts, “As for Coach Toda disliking Brother Hassashi… We should ask Mr. Mabuchi. He is Coach Toda's student. Here, probably only he understands Coach Toda better.”

“No way!”

Conan interrupted with a serious face and told others about what he heard in the restroom.

There is also a problem with Mabuchi Kyohei. Currently they still don't know why, and Mabuchi Kyohei also wants to do something. If Mabuchi Kyohei originally knew about these matters, it's still nothing if they inquire. But if Mabuchi Kyohei doesn't know, it's very likely that Mabuchi Kyohei will use these matters to do something, which would be more unfavorable for Chi Feichei.

Rather than finding another breakthrough point first, first sort out these matters.

“Mr. Mabuchi's ‘mistake from young time’, will it be the same reason as Coach Toda disliking Brother Ike?” Mitsuhiko speculated, “Actually, this is the same matter?”

“Ten years ago, Brother Hassashi was only 10 years old. What mistake could he commit that's unforgivable, right?” Haibara Ai analyzed and said, “Also, consider, if it was a mistake that caused very serious consequences, to the point of making people resentful, Brother Hassashi, out of consideration for us, also wouldn't take us here for training. Even if he came, he would also tell us clearly.”

“Correct, there are many places to train tennis. Chi Feichei couldn't not find one. There's no need to come here unnecessarily…” Conan tried hard to recall, attempt to analyze Chi Feichei's ideas.

Attempt failed.

He discovered Chi Feichei rarely tells people about past matters, or what he does recently, and even less expression of emotion. Facing a matter or a certain person, very little expression of intense emotion. Even if sometimes he looks cold or says overly harsh words, there's also no way to tell if Chi Feichei is truly angry or faking it, or how angry he is.

Sometimes he looks truly angry, but Chi Feichei probably just wants to make fun of people out of morbid taste. Sometimes he looks not angry, but Chi Feichei is probably already angry. Sometimes he pays no attention to people, possibly he can't stand certain people. Also possibly it's just that he doesn't want to talk at that time. Conversely, sometimes he kindly says a few more words to people. Also possibly it's not that he finds that person agreeable, but it's that he suddenly wants to say something, or to delay others for a certain purpose…

Uh, anyway, wanting to ponder Chi Feichei's ideas from Chi Feichei's behavior is too difficult. I think it's still better to think of other methods. Don't waste this time.

【Happy Birthday to Hassashi who must celebrate every year! 】
