Chapter 673 Payback for Slashing My Tire【Happy Birthday Bonus Chapter for Chi Feichei】
"Ayumi..." Mitsuhiko's hushed voice came from the Detective Badge, "Keep it down."
Ayumi felt even more aggrieved. She just wanted to cry, wanted to cry loudly, and didn't want to keep it down.
Mitsuhiko panicked a bit, "We can ask Coach Tota about that matter later..."
Haibara Ai's voice, "I also have something I want to say to him."
So everyone was listening...
"It's not that, I wanted to..." Conan was about to explain when Mitsuhiko interrupted him in a low voice.
"Putting that aside, we just ran into Mr. Mabuchi and secretly followed him. We heard him personally say on the phone in the Lounge that he was the one who punctured Brother Chi's Car tire, just to make Brother Chi stay behind. He also said he didn't want to dilly-dally anymore, wasting opportunities would lead to regret. Afterwards, he went to the Dining Room alone with a dark face... Anyway, Genta and I will stop him first, you guys hurry over!"
"Hey..."
Before Conan could speak, he realized the Communication had been cut off and quickly ran towards the Dining Room.
If Mabuchi Kyohei was targeting Chi Feichei, then just leave it to Chi Feichei to solve. Chi Feichei can handle it. Those two Children shouldn't try to stop him and end up getting hurt themselves.
Too reckless!
Ayumi couldn't bother crying anymore, hiccuped, wiped the corner of her eyes, and followed after them.
...
The path leading to the Dining Room was silent. Mabuchi Kyohei walked step by step towards the brightly lit Dining Room with a stiff face.
As he got closer, he could faintly hear Coach Dong Tian Yue talking to the Chef in the Dining Room.
Closer, five steps, four steps...
As long as he stepped through That Door, he would...
"Action!" Children's shouts suddenly came from behind him.
Before Mabuchi Kyohei could turn his Head to see clearly, Genta, who rushed out, gave him a 'Wild Bull Rush', pushing him in the back.
Mabuchi Kyohei directly lunged through the Door and fell in front of the Dining Table.
Coach Dong Tian Yue glanced sideways, "..."
What's going on?
Makino Yasuhiko, "..."
What happened?
Chi Feichei raised his Eyes, "..."
Having discovered that this group of Kids had collectively disappeared for a while, he knew something was going to happen.
Were they helping him find the person who punctured his tire?
"Hey!" Mabuchi Kyohei was about to get up when Genta followed up with a 'Mount Tai Press', deeply feeling the weight from the Elementary School Student.
"Don't even think about doing Bad Deeds!" Genta plopped down on Mabuchi Kyohei's back and said menacingly, "Mitsuhiko!"
"Click!"
"Click!"
Mitsuhiko continuously handcuffed two Toy Handcuffs onto Mabuchi Kyohei's ankles.
Although they were toys, they were still Metal Products.
Because he discovered that toys could be broken free from, he specially prepared two and handcuffed them crosswise. It would still take an adult some time to break free.
Mabuchi Kyohei was completely unable to stand up, "I..."
Ayumi, who had run up close, saw that the 'battle' had already begun, reached into her pocket, took out a Small Bottle, and flung it out far away.
Chi Feichei saw the Bottle flying towards the Dining Room, immediately Get Up and darted out the Door.
As for the others, he couldn't control them, and it was too late to remind them...
"Bang!"
The Bottle landed, and the Chili Powder inside burst out.
The Dining Room was directly thrown into chaos.
Coach Dong Tian Yue, Makino Yasuhiko, Coach Shiraishi, and the Waiter who had stepped forward to serve tea, who were originally planning to have Dinner after the Children arrived, all got a whiff of it.
Chi Feichei stood Outside the Door, watching A Group of People running out, silently holding his breath.
To rashly open his mouth to remind them would easily lead to getting a mouthful of Chili Powder...
Mabuchi Kyohei, who couldn't stand up or run away, choked on Chili Powder, closed his Eyes and coughed until Tears streamed down his Face.
In the end, Chi Feichei couldn't stand to watch anymore, entered the Door, and hauled Mabuchi Kyohei out.
Five minutes later, A Group of People recovered. After the Chili Powder in the Dining Room was cleaned up, they returned to the Dining Room again.
Mabuchi Kyohei slumped in the Chair, wiped his Face with a Wet Towel, and only then felt a little better. However, as soon as he put down the Towel and raised his Eyes, he saw Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko staring intently at him. He looked down at the crosswise handcuffs on his feet, still a bit stunned, "Wh-Why..."
Why were they doing this to him?
Chi Feichei sat across from Mabuchi Kyohei, "Payback for slashing my tire."
"Correct! Confess honestly..." Genta nodded, paused for a moment, and turned his Head to look at Chi Feichei, "Brother Chi already knew it was him?"
"I knew you guys definitely went to find the person who punctured the tire," Chi Feichei explained.
Conan, "..."
So this guy guessed their Intention and was just waiting in the Dining Room to 'sit back and reap the benefits'?
However, this person really wasn't found by them through searching for Clues, but was just coincidentally bumped into by Genta and Mitsuhiko.
Makino Yasuhiko thought of Mabuchi Kyohei's miserable state just now and felt a bit Scalp Numbing.
These Children probably don't know that he pried open Chi Feichei's Cabinet and took Chi Feichei's Backpack, right?
"Not only that," Mitsuhiko said to Chi Feichei, then looked at Mabuchi Kyohei with a serious Face, "What exactly do you want to do to Brother Chi?"
Chi Feichei thought these Words were a bit Weird. What did he mean by wanting to do something to him...
Mabuchi Kyohei paused for a moment, raised his Eyes to look at Chi Feichei, his Gaze complex, "Mabuchi Junko... she's my Younger Sister."
Haibara Ai, holding a cup of Orange Juice, walked to Chi Feichei's side, sat down, put in a straw, and silently watched the two people.
Hmm, indeed related to that Girl?
It's time to enjoy Gossip while drinking Juice again.
It's all because previously, when Chi Feichei was around and there was Juicy Gossip to enjoy, she always had Juice to drink at hand, which made her develop a habit. She always felt that Gossip heard without the Companionship of Juice had no Joy.
"I guessed it," Chi Feichei wasn't surprised. Mabuchi Kyohei would secretly glance at him from time to time during the day, and they also shared the same surname Mabuchi. If he still couldn't tell, he would be too slow-witted. "But why did you puncture my tire?"
"Don't misunderstand! I have no Malice, I just wanted to find an Opportunity to talk to you alone," Mabuchi Kyohei looked at A Group of Children, "But previously you were always with Others. When you went to Training, I also didn't know which Serving Training Room you were in. I was worried that you would have already left by the time I came out, so... so I went to the Parking Lot, thinking that as long as there was a Problem with your Car, you would probably stay until the Car was repaired."
"Then why were you in the Washroom, making a Call to someone saying 'Everyone should pay the price for the Mistakes they made when they were young'?" Mitsuhiko questioned sternly, "Could it be that it's because Brother Chi previously did something that wronged your Younger Sister, and you want to Retaliate against him?"
"Huh?" Mabuchi Kyohei was Stunned.
Chi Feichei also said Speechless, "Your imaginations are really rich."
He and Mabuchi Junko had only met three or four times during High School, they weren't that familiar. Where did these Kids' minds wander to?
Haibara Ai rested her right hand on her chin, placed it on the Table, and bit on the straw to drink Juice.
Huh? This Gossip actually still has a twist.
"Turns out you thought I wanted to Retaliate against Mr. Chi," Mabuchi Kyohei said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and quickly explained, "Unexpectedly, you heard me making a Phone Call in the Washroom. But Matters aren't what you're thinking. At that time, I was calling Junko. Making Mistakes when young was also referring to Junko, not Mr. Chi."
"In Other Words, actually it's your Younger Sister who did something that wronged Brother Chi?" Genta stared at Mabuchi Kyohei.
"Sorry... you could also Say So," Mabuchi Kyohei hesitated for a moment, "Actually, it's no big deal to tell everyone. When Junko was in High School, she was studying at Beika High School. She knew a Girl named Asaka. They had the same hobbies and Interests, got along well, and quickly became good Friends. But she discovered that Asaka often Staring at a Senior in a daze, with a worried look. One day, she knew that Asaka had arranged to meet that Senior, and secretly followed her. She saw Asaka crying and bowing. Afterwards, she told Others that the Senior was too Cold and Arrogant, and even bullied cute Girls, things like that. Then, it led to Rumors spreading like wildfire, and that Senior was Isolate in School..."
"Could it be that, that Senior is..." Mitsuhiko Look Towards Chi Feichei.
"Correct, it's Mr. Chi," Mabuchi Kyohei nodded and added, "But, this is just superficially the course of events of this Matter. Mr. Chi also thinks so, right?"
Chi Feichei Uh-huh'ed, "Then, what is the fact?"
Haibara Ai continued to drink Juice with a straw.
Actually, there's still inside information? This Gossip today is not bad.
"She did it Intentionally," Mabuchi Kyohei raised his Head and looked straight at Chi Feichei, "Initially, she thought that it was just a sentence or two from her, and it wouldn't gain Others' approval, but instead, it would get these Words to the Ear of the person she liked, and that person would come to her for explanation. But she didn't expect that the Development of Matters completely surpassed her imagination. Rumors spread wider and wider. Your Classmate from Middle School days also started saying how Cold and Arrogant you were in Middle School, and how much you looked down on everyone. There was more than one person who badmouthed you. She, the instigator, not only failed to get your attention, but even Others no longer paid attention to her..."
"Please give me a cup of Watermelon Juice," Chi Feichei turned his Head and Said to the Waiter.
"Uh, okay." The Waiter could only put aside his Intention to enjoy Gossip and go get Juice.
Conan looked at Chi Feichei Speechless. How could this Fellow still be in the Mood to drink Juice?
"Bring me one too!"
Uh-huh, he'll drink too!
Genta, "Me too."
Ayumi, "I want to drink too..."
The Waiter saw this, simply used a cart to wheel out two large bottles of Watermelon Juice and a pile of Glass Cups. One cup each, and he also poured a cup for himself and sat aside.
Mabuchi Kyohei, "..."
This scene of everyone with a cup of Juice in hand, sitting around waiting to hear the Story, what's going on?
He was really seriously discussing serious business.
The Waiter young man saw Mabuchi Kyohei looking at him, paused for a moment, Get Up and handed over a cup of Watermelon Juice, "So-Sorry, Mr. Mabuchi, I forgot to pour you a cup."
Mabuchi Kyohei took the Cup, was Speechless for a moment, but still continued to talk about Serious Business, "Afterwards, Asaka found Junko. Only then did Junko Realize that Asaka wasn't confessing and getting rejected that day, but was going to Apology. She and Asaka truly are best Friends who get along best. They not only share common Interests, but even the person they like and the wrong Method are all alike..."
"Please give me a cup of Watermelon Juice," Chi Feichei turned his Head and Said to the Waiter.
"Uh, okay." The Waiter could only put aside his Intention to enjoy Gossip and go get Juice.
Chi Feichei saw Haibara Ai turning her Head to look at him and explained, "Kutsuna... is Asaka. In Middle School, we were in the same School. During my second year of Middle School and her first year, she confessed to me, and I refused. She also told Others that I was hard to get along with, Cold and Arrogant, Words like that."
"I see," Haibara Said, "When you were in your second year of High School, Miss Asaka and Miss Junko also went to Beika High School to School. Miss Junko thought that Miss Asaka had only confessed then and was harshly rejected, and she was also afraid to tell you herself, so she wanted to use other Methods to talk to you. But because you weren't in the same grade, and also because you had few Friends due to Rumors during your Middle School years, and probably didn't join School Club Activity much, she couldn't find an Opportunity to talk to you, so she resorted to this approach, wanting you to actively seek her out. But what she didn't know was, her Friend had also done the same thing during Middle School. Middle School Rumors combined with her Words, only then led to things getting out of hand."

Ayumi felt even more aggrieved. She just wanted to cry, wanted to cry loudly, and didn't want to keep it down.
