Chapter 836 Queen Sallybeth
A group of people followed them downstairs.
Nonaka Kazuki watched Togashi Junji get into the police car, opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, said nothing. When he turned his head, he glanced at Chi Feichei with a complex look and went to comfort Kojima Yuki.
"Senior Kojima," Mouri Ran stepped forward, "Whether or not you want to go out and eat something with us? Also, why don't you stay at the Detective Agency with me tonight?"
Kojima Yuki was in a Depressed Mood and Nodded.
While eating at an Izakaya, Mori Kogoro livened up the atmosphere, so it wasn't too dull. Only Nonaka Kazuki occasionally looked at Chi Feichei, but still said nothing.
Chi Feichei didn't drink with Mori Kogoro, finished his meal, and took Haibara Ai to take their leave early.
"That's right, you still have things to do tomorrow," Mori Kogoro waved his hand drunkenly at Chi Feichei, "Hissashi, remember to say hello to the Queen for me!"
"Queen?" Kojima Yuki asked in Doubt.
"The Queen of England is visiting, Brother Hichiji and Ai are going to pick her up at the Airport," Mouri Ran explained, and then asked, "By the Way, the Queen will take the Royal Express Train to Osaka in two days, Senior Kojima, Whether or not you want to go with us, just to change your Mood? I'll tell Brother Hichiji, he has an extra Ticket."
"No Need," Kojima Yuki said, "It's already Troublesome enough for you."
Nonaka Kazuki didn't say anything, sighed in his Heart, and considered it figured out.
He finally Understood why Sawaguchi Keiko had been so enthusiastic about Chi Feichei Before...
Sawaguchi Keiko's Eyesight had improved, but she hadn't seen the Mood of the people around her, or perhaps she hadn't intended to Look at all.
...Apartment, 11th Floor.
Chi Feichei hung the Red Horse (toy) on the Doll Wall, alongside the Crystal Ball with the Bug removed.
He knew why Nonaka Kazuki kept looking at him but said nothing.
Because he Don't Know what to Say.
Nonaka Kazuki Should already have been abandoned by Sawaguchi Keiko. Even If he hadn't been abandoned, he Should have Sensed a Sense of Crisis tonight—Sawaguchi Keiko Seemingly had found a new Prey, and he was about to follow in Togashi Junji's footsteps.
Sawaguchi Keiko was hunting for targets who could provide her with more Money, while still maintaining ambiguous ties with her ex-boyfriend, keeping him as a backup. Who knew how many fish were in her Sea.
Nonaka Kazuki might have wanted to Ask him if he had Sensed Sawaguchi Keiko's Intentions, or if he wanted to Ask him why he could make Sawaguchi Keiko shift her Goal, or if he wanted to Ask him why he was Suddenly indifferent to Sawaguchi Keiko and Whether he had Sensed something, or perhaps he wanted to talk to him about something else, but Pity, they were just Acquaintance, and talking about those things would be too intimate for a new Relationship, so he could only keep it in his Heart.
He was even less in the Mood to listen to an unfamiliar person talk about their History of Affection, whether male or female.
Haibara Ai finished Washing Up and walked over from Next Door through the Dining Room. Seeing Chi Feichei standing in front of that Thriller Wall busy, her Mood was Subtle.
Not only Hissashi and Feimo liked to tie up Dolls and hang them with black Yarn, but Brother Hichiji also had a hobby, right?
Dolls caught in the Claw Machine, Kaito Kid Plush Toy, blood-stained Rabbit, grinning Clown, the disheveled Doll Ayumi gave, plus the Crystal Ball, the Guan Yu Red Hare Keychain hung up with black Yarn...
The content of this Wall was really getting richer and more bizarre.
Chi Feichei Discovered that Haibara Ai had Come Over, Turned Head, and Looked.
Haibara Ai withdrew her Line of Sight from Looking at the Doll Wall, still thinking about that Red Horse Keychain, her Mind twitched, "The soccer Champion team Seemingly will release doll keychains. After Higo performs well and wins the championship, I'll Help you Check if I can buy Player Higo's keychain."
Chi Feichei Nodded, Ryusuke Higo's doll? Collecting it was also Okay.
"Brother Hassashi, then I'll go to Bed first, good Night." Haibara Ai turned around Calmly, then Black Lines on Forehead.
She regretted it After Saying.
The Logic of what she just Said was a bit Weird, telling Higo to Refuel and win the championship, and then hang his doll on the Thriller Wall...
Quite cruel.
It must be that she was influenced by Brother Hichiji's distorted hobby.
But Higo Shouldn't mind, right? Brother Hassashi was a Fan who liked him very much and wanted to give up watching the Finals to watch his Competition even when he was booed by So Many People. If the doll was hung on the Wall, that was also the love of an Iron Fan.
Chi Feichei watched Haibara Ai drift back to Next Door, followed her to Help turn off the Light, and when he came back, he Handily took Xiaomei down from the Doll Wall and took it back to the Room.
Although Haibara Ai lived in the Living Room Room on His Mom's side, and Should use the Washroom over There if she got up at Night, he couldn't guarantee that Haibara Ai would definitely not run over.
If Haibara Ai got up at Night and Saw a Doll looking for its Head all over the floor, she would Probably be frightened.
...
A Night without Dreams.
At six o'clock in the Morning, Chi Feichei was awakened by Xiaomei and Hissashi.
"Hissashi, stop playing, give my Head back to me."
"Okay, I'll put it back on for you."
"Click."
"You used too much force, my Neck is stuck in my Head."
"Then I'll Help you re-... Wait, Xiaomei, is your Head not so easy to drop off like this? You try!"
"Then I'll try... It still falls off..."
Chi Feichei Sat Up, watching Hissashi climb over the Quilt, using its Tail to roll up a doll Head with disheveled hair, and then climb to Xiaomei's side, using its Tail to Help install the Head.
Xiaomei adjusted it Oneself, under the half-covering disheveled Long Hair, the blood-stained Face maintained a stiff and solemn Expression, "Master, is it that we disturbed you?"
"It's okay." Chi Feichei Looked towards the pile of Clothes on the Table Beside the Bed.
"I Helped Packing Up last Night. When those two Maids were picking out Clothes for Miss Ai, they mentioned male Clothing," Xiaomei said in a low voice as she counted, "Wear Morning Dress to the Airport, Evening Gown for the Banquet, and Tailcoat if you are Request to accompany to more Formal occasions. Wear more casual Clothes when Going Out to see the scenery Tomorrow. I picked out a white double-breasted Suit, and the Clothes to prepare for leaving for Osaka by Train the Day After Tomorrow. I have sorted them all out."
"Hard work."
Chi Feichei lifted the Quilt and Get Up to Check the Clothes Xiaomei had sorted out. He Originally thought of Packing Up Oneself after waking up, but now it Seemed that there was No Need. Xiaomei had sorted them out without any mistakes, and even the Cufflinks and other Things were already matched, "Xiaomei, Whether or Not you want to Go Together with us?"
"Go to Help?" Xiaomei Asked.
"Go to play." Chi Feichei Said.
Thinking about it, after his free little Maid came, she had been left at Home by him all the time. Because she didn't need to be fed, she had been left at Home for five or six Days in a row. It was time to take Xiaomei out to play.
"Going Out to face So Many People, it's so noisy. I want to clean up Home first," Xiaomei hesitated, "Actually, I can also Study cooking."
"No Need to cook."
Chi Feichei Went Out to Wash Up.
He was not Interested in stir-fried doll Heads or boiled human doll Heads, and had no Intention of adding them to the Cookbook.
...
Not long After Chi Feichei Went Out to Wash Up, two Maids also came. One went to prepare Breakfast, and the other went to Help Haibara Ai sort out Clothes.
After Packing Up and Going Out, the Driver arranged by Da Shan Mi was already waiting, as well as a White Car that looked more steady and grand.
Chi Feichei's Red Sports Car was a bit too high-profile and not Suitable for Formal occasions.
All the way to the Meguro Ward Embassy, he met with the British Ambassador to Japan, diplomats and other officials. Those who had met greeted each other, and those who had not met recognized each other's Faces. The Convoy then drove to the Airport.
The Metropolitan Police Department Traffic Division, Police Agency Security Bureau and other Departments also had Arrangements on the Road and Outside the Airport.
Chi Feichei was not the main figure in this Airport pickup, but it was also inconvenient to run around, so he didn't go to Check if Amuro Toru had come.
Amuro Toru also didn't run to the Vicinity of the main hall, Perhaps he was not involved in this Security Mission, or Perhaps he was busy.
This visit was not considered a very Formal state visit, but the Itinerary schedule, transportation, and visiting personnel had already been finalized long ago, and there was basically no delay.
Chi Feichei Looked at the approximate List of visiting personnel in the Itinerary schedule sent by Chi Kana. Queen Sallybeth of England in this World, Crown Prince Philip, the Queen's private Secretary, news Secretary, Butler, medical officer, Driver, clothing stylist, hairdresser, Bodyguard, male Servant, Maid, without Royal Family Members and etiquette team, but there were at least fifty or sixty People.
By the Way, there was also the Queen's British Shorthair Cat, and a Servant Specially responsible for taking care of the Cat.
The Itinerary schedule did not mention the Things brought, but thinking about it, there would be a lot of Clothes and corresponding accessories and Jewelry.
At ten o'clock sharp, the Airplane landed.
At ten minutes past ten, the two sides met, the main figures bowed, and held talks.
Originally, there was nothing for Chi Feichei to do for the time being, but a small Accident happened in the middle.
The Queen's Cat had been Curiously Staring at Chi Feichei. Taking advantage of the Maid holding the Cat's inattention, it jumped out of the arms of the Maid holding it, and jumped into Chi Feichei's arms all of a sudden.
"Ah!" the Maid exclaimed in a low voice, and everyone else Looked at Chi Feichei.
Chi Feichei casually caught the Cat and bowed calmly and naturally, "Your Majesty."
The diplomat wiped his sweat. Could this greeting be a little more Gentle?
It was so Cold, it always Feeling like the air was a bit Cold.
Haibara Ai followed suit with a curtsy, also Calm, making the diplomat wipe his sweat again.
Sallybeth's Golden short curly hair was neatly styled, wearing a Top Hat of the same color as her Pink Dress, her blue Eyes were deep, and her facial features and eyebrows had an overly gorgeous beauty. After a Be Stunned, she smiled and Said, "You are Kana's Child, take your Younger Sister and ride in the same Car with me for a while, how about it?"
"My Greatest Honour."
Chi Feichei gave the most Polite Reply.
The Queen of this World was different from the Queen of his Previous Life, or rather, political higher-ups and world tycoons, famous figures, were different from his Previous Life.
Sallybeth was not yet thirty years old this Year, younger than his Mother, and married former King Henry eight years ago. She had only given birth to one Child, Prince Philip.
King Henry passed away two years ago. Sallybeth and Henry were still close relatives. Before Marriage, she was Originally the fifth Heir to the throne. The previous four had passed away early, and she was also Prince Philip's Biological Mother, so she succeeded to the throne.
Her personal History of Affection was Similar to Queen Victoria. She met her First Love at the age of 17, but it was the prince of a country with a bad Relationship. Under various obstacles, it ended before it even started, while Henry was the fiancé who had been Default Assumption since childhood. Originally, neither of them was Interested in this Marriage, but when they met again Many Years Afterwards, they fell in love at first sight, and Soon fell in love, got married, and had children.
This was the Situation pieced together from the scattered Clips Chi Kana had Said to her in her Memory, but the Original Consciousness was too young at that time, and some Details were not clearly remembered.
Now thinking about it carefully, Chi Kana had been Planning and wanting to Clean Up Fielder's annoying Ghosts for at least more than ten years, including the Nobility Title competition. Being so Confident, she must have already communicated with the Royal Family.
Sallybeth succeeded to the throne for two years, Henry succeeded to the throne for four years, and the Time when Chi Kana communicated with the Royal Family Should be even earlier, That Is to Say, during the reign of Henry's Old Dad, Chi Kana's Relationship with the Royal Family had already been secretly maintained quite well.
He Probably Guessed who the Key figure was—his cheap Old Mom's Godfather, former King Henry of England's Uncle, also Henry's Father's Younger Brother, and the Originally third Heir to the British throne who had passed away.
Logically speaking, it was difficult for a Baron's Daughter and a Duke to have a Relationship, Even If in the Era when Nobility was becoming more and more worthless and Economy was paramount, but the Royal Family had always had its own Assets. It was not impossible for them to come into Business contact and hit it off.

A group of people followed them downstairs.
Nonaka Kazuki watched Togashi Junji get into the police car, opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, said nothing. When he turned his head, he glanced at Chi Feichei with a complex look and went to comfort Kojima Yuki.
