Chapter 798 Everyone Has Their Hardships【Bonus Chapter for Patron Gao Leng Ji Yong Xuan Hua Hua】
“Actually, I’m very clear that their courtesy isn't directed at us geisha, but at other Things. It's often the same,” Chizuru smiled and said to Chi Feichei, “Talking about these things in front of Children seems a bit too heavy.”
Chi Feichei didn't mind saying anything and looked at Haibara Ai, “Simply put, it’s because geisha are too expensive to hire, and they accompany High Officials and wealthy businessmen. Even if a newcomer doesn't have enough Connections, they have potential. Who can guarantee that some Big Shot won't take a fancy to Miss Chizuru? Miss Chizuru is such a talkative Woman, if someone Offend her casually, when she makes some Big Shot happy, she can use Pillow Talk to deal with the person who Offend her, right?”
“Furthermore, Sanno-ji Temple, where Ryūen is located, needs generous Believer, Mr. Mizuo, as a Noh Actor, needs Popularity, and Mr. Saijo, as an Antique Bookstore Owner, also has to be like others. If he has a Relationship with Chizuru, he might need Chizuru's Help to build a Bridge to some Big Shot in the future. Befriend her is naturally the best. The courtesy of those three is for Miss Chizuru, but not entirely for Miss Chizuru.”
“Facing Miss Chizuru, they still have to be Polite, even if they were once Miss Chizuru's Guests. And the Attitude of this group of Background mid-level management makes those who can't afford to hire geisha, or are reluctant to hire geisha to accompany them, feel that geisha are very high-class. The Status of geisha comes from this.”
This series of Words was too straightforward, and Chizuru could only smile.
“Then why did you shake your Head at me Before…”
Haibara Ai roughly Understood.
Chi Feichei indicated that she didn't need to perform a deep Bow because they didn't need to. Shinchi Group and Field Group didn't need a geisha to build a Bridge. The Benefit problems involved with other Conglomerate and Group were too big, and not something a geisha could mediate. They didn't need to be Polite to Chizuru.
Follow Courtesy and perform a Bow?
No, if they performed a deep Bow, and it spread out, perhaps… it would make others Lose Face? For example, people from the Ooka Family?
After all, even when facing people from the Ooka Family, except for some elders, they Seemingly didn't need to perform that kind of deep Bow. If they lowered their Posture in front of a geisha, people would also be unhappy, thinking that they were indicating that a Prestigious Family was not as good as a geisha.
“It’s not needed, and it’s also not appropriate,” Chi Feichei originally wanted to make Haibara Ai Understand These Intricacies, so he deliberately revealed These Intricacies. He never Thought that letting Child See Complex and Darkness Things was bad. You have to See everything to have Experience, right? “Unless Miss Chizuru becomes an Honored Guest of elders like the Ooka Family Head, in that case, we would have to perform a Bow.”
“Ooka Family?” Chizuru looked at Chi Feichei Curiously, “Mr. Chi should be more than just a Shareholder of THK Entertainment Company, right? I heard that THK Entertainment Company has the support of the Suzuki Family of Tokyo and Multinational Corporation. Mr. Chi is from the Chi Family, right?”
Chi Feichei Nodded. Even in Kyoto, geisha had to Understand the Movement of many large Conglomerate and Business, so it was not Strange for her to guess his Identity.
Hattori Heiji Scratch Head and Said, “Brother Hassashi, what you Say makes people Feel that Mr. Mizuo and the others are too Realistic, it’s just… just…”
“The Adult World is Originally Like That, just for Survival, for better Survival,” Chi Feichei's Tone was calm, but the Words he Said were so straightforward that they peeled away the skin and revealed the bones, “Miss Chizuru is Feeling Sigh, Should be because she Saw my Younger Sister and Thought of one Matter. Geisha are sometimes praised as Princess, but they are never Real Princess. Simply put, Miss Chizuru Feels Uncomfortable.”
Geisha wear expensive and gorgeous Clothes, which is almost a set that an ordinary Family can only afford with several or even more than ten years of Annual Salary. Ordinary Girl naturally envy it, but some people can wear it casually.
That night, Haibara Ai played with Archery and rubbed off a lot of Gold Leaf, but Haibara Ai didn't Care About it, and he Cared About it even less.
Even if Haibara Ai Threw away or cut up that Clothes, what he and Mother Considered would not be the Value of the Clothes, but Whether Haibara Ai was in a bad Mood, Whether she didn't Like some Place, and Whether she would be too spoiled and unfavorable for Haibara Ai's Growth.
As for geisha's Etiquette and gentleness, Maiden cultivated by Prestigious Family like Momiji Ooka, who pay attention to women's Self-cultivation and Etiquette, are not worse than geisha, and even have the Nobility and bearing that geisha do not have.
Haibara Ai's casual and unrestrained appearance when playing with Bowstring at that time did not make people Feel rude, but rather gave Chizuru the Freedom and Relaxation to envy.
Hattori Heiji held back for a long time before Saying, “Miss Chizuru can be her own Princess!”
What Brother Hissashi Said was really Realistic and made people Feel Uncomfortable.
Conan also Nodded, adhering to the Worldview of Equality for all.
“Thank You.” Chizuru smiled at the Two People and didn't Say anything more.
Reality is that geisha really don't have their own Life.
However, she still Thought that she Shouldn't talk about such Realistic Matters in front of teenagers, Boys, and Girl. Young teenagers Should be full of Beautiful Fantasy and Expectation for the World.
“I am not a biological Child of the Chi Family,” Haibara Ai paused, “Although I want to Comfort you Like That, but Saying This Words Seems to hurt my Godmother and Older Brother's Heart. The Reason why I Say it is because I Discovery that my respected Older Brother is not cautious in his Words and Deeds either.”
Chi Feichei: “……”
Okay, she even Teasing him.
However, he could talk about such straightforward and Realistic Words with Haibara Ai in private, but Saying it in front of Outsider was Indeed not ‘cautious in Words and Deeds’.
“But no one's Life will be Easy,” Haibara Ai's Voice was Cold and clear, “When you envy Others, you are also the object of envy for many people.”
“Thank you for your Comfort, I Understand,” Chizuru smiled and Thanked her, her Mood was Subtle. This Child was really Precocious, Probably because she had an Older Brother who didn't Understand how to retain Little Girl's Fantasy. Everyone Has Their Hardships, “By the Way, Actually Sanno-ji Temple is on Rokkaku Road, and we are now passing through Ebisugawa Road… Miss Ai, can you sing Temari Song?”
“Two beautiful Miss taught me Before,” Haibara Ai counted, “Marutake-Ebisu-Nijo, Oshi-Oike…”
Hattori Heiji was Stunned. Wasn't this Song the one his First Love Lover sang?
“Ane-San-Rokkaku…” Chizuru followed and Sang, Smilingly Said, “So we Should be on the sixth Street now.”
“Temari Song?” Conan looked at Haibara Ai in Doubt.
He had only come to Kyoto a few Days earlier than them, how did Haibara Seemingly learn a lot of Things?
“I heard it’s a Song that compiles Kyoto Roads from north to south,” Haibara Ai Said, “Used for Children to memorize Street Name.”
“Older Brother Chi Saw through the Intention of that Drawing, Could it be…” Conan Said halfway, but didn't Say anything more.
The Intention represented by that Drawing cannot be Said to Outsider, and it is not ruled out that Chizuru is a member of Genji Firefly.
Hattori Heiji had been Staring at Chizuru, Thoughtful and Asked, “Miss Chizuru, are you… from Kyoto?”
Chizuru Nodded, “That’s Correct.”
“How old are you This Year?” Hattori Heiji asked further.
“19 years old This Year.” Chizuru Answered.
Conan and Hattori Heiji looked at each other silently.
At the Crossroads of the next Street, Chizuru bid farewell and left, “This is Oike Street, then I will take my leave first. I will Carefully Consider Mr. Chi's Proposal, and I will give you a reply Before you leave.”
Watch Leave Chizuru across the Road, Conan raised his Head and asked Hattori Heiji, “You Don't Think she is…”
“It must be her!” Hattori Heiji Said with certainty, “She is from Kyoto, and her Age is two years older than me.”
Conan was Speechless, “But Children in Kyoto can sing that Song, even Haibara, who just came here…”
“Found her, I finally found her…” Hattori Heiji murmured absentmindedly, not listening to Conan's Words at all, until his Thoughts were interrupted by the Mobile Phone Ringtone.
See Hattori Heiji answer the Phone Call, Haibara Ai raised her Head to Look at Chi Feichei.
What Situation?
Chi Feichei explained, “Hattori's First Love Lover he is Find People for.”
Haibara Ai was Speechless, she Thought they were Saying they had found the Culprit, “So you guys also chat about These Things when you are together.”
After Hattori Heiji answered the Phone Call, he explained the Situation to the other Three People, “Officer Otaki Opened it. Sakura Mr.'s Blood was detected on the Short Sword that the Murderer Threw away. It Seems that is the Weapon that killed Mr. Sakura. In This Way, After the Other Party attacked me, they Intentionally Threw the Short Sword there…”
“Should be just want to make the Police Feel that it was an Intruder who sneaked in from Outside who killed Mr. Sakura and took away the Weapon,” Conan took over the Words, “The only people who need to Mislead the Police Like That are the four people who were in the tea house at that time.”
“No, it’s three. My First Love Lover cannot be the Murderer!” Hattori Heiji Said to Conan righteously, and then smiled and Looked at Chi Feichei, “Brother Hassashi, do you have a Method to Understand Miss Chizuru's Matter?”
“You can Ask Officer Ling Xiaolu or Ask Officer Shiratori,” Chi Feichei Said, “They are more familiar with Kyoto than I am.”
Conan was surprised, “Officer Shiratori?”
……
“Mr. Chi, what you Say…”
Outside Bukkō-ji Temple, Ninzaburo Shiratori, disguised as a Traveler, Ambush, Face was a little embarrassed, but he laughed proudly, “That’s Also Correct, I still have some Face in Gion.”
Gion is the most representative Geisha District in Kyoto.
Conan Half-Moon Eyes: “……”
What’s so proud of about This Matter? Unintelligible children from Prestigious Family!
Ninzaburo Shiratori immediately made a Phone Call and Find People to Understand Chizuru's Situation.
Chi Feichei stood on the Streetside, smoking a Cigarette, Looking at Bukkō-ji Temple in front of him.
Black tiles and black wood, Wooden Door, set off by gray-white Wall, the entire Temple looked very heavy and solemn.
Also very Weird.
Now the Sun was just moving towards the West, and he could imagine that at dusk, the Setting Sun would shine out from Rear of the Temple. Standing at the Main Entrance, it really looked Like a Temple emitting Buddha's Light. This was Probably the origin of Bukkō-ji Temple.
He Felt Weird because the black Building emitting Buddha's Light was Originally Weird, and the nearest Subway to this Temple was Karasuma Line.
After Conan determined that Bukkō-ji Temple was related to Genji Firefly with a stroke of ‘Jade’ Character, the Police were all dispatched here, and a preliminary Inspection was carried out in the Temple. No Yakushi Nyorai Statue was found to be stolen. Currently, they are scattered near the Temple, some are going to investigate Suspicious Building nearby, and some, Like Ninzaburo Shiratori, are disguised as Travelers to Observation Whether there are Suspicious Person passing by.
If this Place is related to Organization…
Cough, he Said he didn't Intentionally do it, I Don't Know Whether The Boss Believe it or not?
“Okay… Thank you.” Ninzaburo Shiratori hung up the Phone Call.
Chi Feichei withdrew his Line of Sight. So far, he had not received any Danger Information asking him what the Ghost he was doing, so he would assume that this Place had nothing to do with Organization.
