Chapter 922: You Wouldn't Have Robbed Raki's Home, Would You?
The sky was gloomy, and the rain was on and off.
At noon, the rain stopped for a rare moment. Beside a Riverside in Tokyo, two cars parked side by side.
In one of the cars, Belmode lowered the Car Window. Before Gin, who was getting out of the Car, could speak, she handed over a Plastic Box, "Soup Dumplings..."
Gin took it and casually handed it to Vodka.
"Pumpkin and Millet Porridge..." Belmode handed over another Bag containing two round Boxes.
Gin took it and handed it to Vodka.
Belmode continued to hand over Boxes, "Braised Pork Ribs in Soy Sauce..."
Gin took it and handed it over.
"Lotus Root and Pork Rib Stew..."
"Pearl Glutinous Rice Lotus Root Balls, this Box is sweet, this Box is salty..."
"Rock Sugar Stewed Pear, Dessert..."
"Rice Cake, this Flavor is very good..."
Belmode frantically handed over Boxes, and Gin frantically received them.
Vodka stared blankly at the Boxes piling up in his arms, "These..."
"You wouldn't have robbed Raki's Home, would you?" Gin took out a Cigarette and lit it.
He suspected that Belmode had run away with the Delicious Food from Raki's Home...
"It's because Raki bought too many Food Ingredients. He has a bad Fever, so he prepared the Food Ingredients and asked me to steam or stew them. He prepared a lot of Food Ingredients, and he said if he couldn't finish them, he would send a portion to you. I saw that he couldn't come, so I made them and brought them over for you by the way..." Belmode rummaged through a Bag and took out a Box, handing it out of the Car Window, "Spinach and Lean Meat Dumplings, wrapped last night, but he didn't eat them. There are still some left uncooked. I was worried that they would spoil if left any longer, so I cooked them and brought them over for you to try."
Gin took the Box again and placed it on top of the pile of Things Vodka was holding, "Raki's Situation is not good?"
"Fever over 39 Degrees, he's had no Appetite since last night," Belmode retied the Bag she had placed beside her, which contained her portion to eat on the way, "The Situation is very Weird. Taking Medicine or physical fever reduction is useless, but don't worry, when he wakes up, if he can't move, he can still Call for an Ambulance himself."
"Could Raki have accidentally eaten some Weird Poison?" Vodka recalled, "Once before, he accidentally added Poison to Water as Nutritional Powder and drank it himself..."
"Is that so?" Belmode Turn Head to Look at Vodka.
"Yes," Vodka honestly Said, "Boss was shocked!"
Gin: "..."
Shut up, he wasn't...
But if you ask him why he is Guarding Against the Food that Raki has handled, this is one of the Reasons—that Fellow is so Mad that when he uses Poison, he doesn't even spare himself!
"He has eaten Weird Things," Belmode withdrew her Line of Sight and took out a slender Cigarette to light, "But it should have nothing to do with that Thing."
"What Thing?" Gin Asked.
"Blood, very likely Human Blood," Belmode exhale a puff of Smoke, "Placed in the depths of the Wine Cabinet, it seems he had already drunk it before last night."
Gin could roughly Confirm that that Fellow had Pica, and sneered, "Then you have to be Careful, the Food Ingredients he gave you may not be taken from Animals."
Vodka: "..."
Originally, he thought the Flavor coming from the Boxes was quite fragrant, but after hearing Boss Say this, he suddenly lost his Appetite.
"It shouldn't be, I Stared at him while he prepared the Food Ingredients," Belmode smiled, "I also Looked at the Refrigerator, there was nothing Weird."
Gin raised his Head and Looked at the two Black-Clothed Man who were walking over, "They will send you over."
"Ok." Belmode Get Off The Car, went around to the Passenger Seat to take the Bags of Things, and then sat in the Back Seat.
Gin Watched Leave the Car before Turning Around and getting into the Car.
Since Belmode Said she Stared at the whole process, then these Things sent over should be fine, and they are not made with any Weird Food Ingredients, so they can be eaten.
...
After two o'clock in the Afternoon, the Rain started to drizzle again.
Outside Teitan Elementary School Gate, Elementary School Student walked out of the School Gate in twos and threes with Umbrellas, heading Home together.
Genta closed his Eyes, sniffing and sniffing, constantly moving closer to Ayumi, "It's so Weird, there's a Fragrance..."
Mitsuhiko saw Genta getting closer and closer to Ayumi as he sniffed, and quickly squeezed Genta away, Face red, "Genta, what are you doing!"
"But there really is a Fragrance," Genta sniffed again, "Sweet Pumpkin... fragrant Meat..."
Ayumi had been absent-minded, and hadn't noticed Genta's actions at all.
Haibara Ai Turn Head to Look at Ayumi, this Little Girl is a little Weird today.
"Ayumi, What's Wrong?" Conan Asked directly.
"Ah?" Ayumi came back to her senses, Face blank.
"Yes, you've been always absent-minded since this morning," Mitsuhiko Said, "In class, during Lunch break, during Activity class, you Seemingly weren't very Happy..."
"Did someone bully you?" Genta put on a fierce look of 'I'll stand up for you'.
"It's not that, I'm worried about Brother Chi... By the Way!" Ayumi Suddenly handed the Umbrella in her Hand to Genta, "Genta, please hold this for me!"
Genta blankly took the Umbrella and Help hold the Umbrella.
Mitsuhiko Looked at Ayumi taking off her Schoolbag, stepped forward, and Discovery that Ayumi opened Schoolbag was full of Fast Food Boxes, "This is..."
Ayumi took out a Box, Opened it, and Smilingly Said, "Sweet Pumpkin and Millet Porridge!"
Saliva dripped from the corner of Genta's Mouth.
Ayumi closed the Box, and took out another Box, Opened it, and Smilingly Said, "Also, fragrant Stewed Pork Ribs!"
Saliva from the corner of Genta's Mouth dripped to his chin.
Mitsuhiko couldn't help but Sigh with Emotion, "It's so fragrant, although it's already Cold..."
As soon as Haibara Ai smelled the Flavor, she Guessed who made it, "I See, Yoshida was late when we met in the morning because she went to See Brother Hissashi alone, right? You Say you're worried about him, is it Because his Situation is very bad?"
The smile on Ayumi's Face disappeared, and she closed the Box in disappointment, "Uh-huh, Seemingly it's not very good..."
"Don't Worry, he can Still Can Cooking, the Situation Should not be too bad," Conan comforted, "His Body has always been good, no matter how Stubborn the Cold is, he can get better after Resting for a while."
That's a Man who can break Utility Pole with his bare Hands, okay...
"But Ayumi, you Should have Told us when you went to See Brother Chi, we could have Gone Together." Mitsuhiko Said.
"That's right," Genta Stared at the Boxes in Ayumi's Schoolbag, Face greedy, "You didn't Say anything when we were eating Lunch..."
"It's not like that," Ayumi frowned, and her Voice also softened, "These are not made by Brother Chi. When I went, he was Still Can sleeping..."
"Hey?" Conan Looked at Ayumi in Doubt.
Then how did Ayumi get in?
"When I went to ring the Doorbell, no one answered at first. I thought Brother Chi hadn't woken up yet, but after ringing the Doorbell again, a very beautiful Older Sister opened the Door," Ayumi recalled, "She Said Brother Chi had a Fever, Because I sent the Rabbit Cookies I wanted to bring for everyone to try to Brother Chi, she packed these Things for me, Because there are Things inside that will not taste good when they are Cold, she asked me to take them Home to Heat up after School Dismissal and let everyone try them together..."
Silence.
After a moment, Mitsuhiko Said stammeringly with a Face of Surprise, "B-Brother Chi... Brother Chi has a beautiful Girl at Home! Are they... Cohabitation?!"
"Or is she there to take care of him?" Haibara Ai Asked.
Ayumi was a little tangled, "Although that Older Sister was wearing a Yukata, she Said she is not Brother Chi's Girlfriend yet, she is just there to take care of Brother Chi."
Alas, she Should have Realized that there would be such a Day, the Age Gap is too big, Sure Enough it is an insurmountable Gap.
Conan laughed dryly, "That may also be Because the Girl is embarrassed, Brother Chi can Let Them move freely in his Home and feel at ease to go to sleep, and the Other Party can also take a Bath very naturally in his Home after he falls asleep, which shows that the Relationship between the two of them is unusual."
"He really kept it secret." Haibara Ai touched her chin, recalling Chi Feichei's Recent actions.
When did her Older Brother hook up with a beautiful Girl, she didn't even Discovery any clues.
"Is she very beautiful?" Mitsuhiko actively Gossip.
"Uh-huh! Very beautiful, with a very good figure, and a very good Temperament, Just Like a big Star," Ayumi seriously recalled, "I Think she looks a bit familiar, Seemingly she is a Celebrity, I Saw her in Movie or News Report, I Originally wanted to Ask Her, but Because I was busy packing Food, and then busy rushing to meet up with everyone, so I forgot to Ask Her..."
"Movie or News Report?" Mitsuhiko touched his chin and analyzed, "Then could it be an Entertainer from THK Company? The people Brother Chi can contact the most Should be Entertainers from THK Company."
"It may also be Entertainers from other Companies," Haibara Ai also recalled, and silhouettes of beautiful Female Celebrity flashed in her Mind, "For Example, the Management Company where Yoko Okino is, has had a very good Relationship with THK Company Recently, and they come and go very frequently."
Gossip, they are serious!
Conan Half-Moon Eyes, "Hey, hey, you guys..."
"Is it Miss Cang Mu or Ms. Okino?" Genta's Eyes lit up.
"No," Ayumi seriously Said, "I Think she is not a domestic Star, Because she is a foreigner, and her Japanese is not very good."
"Hey?"
Mitsuhiko and Genta were surprised.
Conan and Haibara Ai also Looked at Ayumi.
A foreign Female Celebrity?
They have also contacted one Recently, and Chi Feichei also knows her...
"Should be a very famous Female Celebrity," Ayumi tried hard to recall, "But I can't Remember her Name."
"Is it... Chris Vineyard?" Haibara Ai tentatively Asked.
Conan still Thought 'Impossible, Haibara is overthinking, that Woman has been exposed and Injured', and then he Saw Ayumi Nodded...
Ayumi Nodded Smilingly, "I Remember! Seemingly it's this Name, I Saw it in a Movie Brochure before!"
Conan and Haibara Ai froze, Feeling their Minds Explode.
Chris Vineyard... Belmode, is Actually at Chi Feichei's Home!
"It's that second-generation Star Female Celebrity," Mitsuhiko Sigh with Emotion, "She is very beautiful, has a good figure, and is already a big Star who has starred in many Movies at a very young Age."
Genta smiled Hey Hey, "So Brother Chi likes Girls Like that."
Ayumi pulled up her Hair to Look, and then Looked down at her small Body, comparing herself, Suddenly Discovery that Conan Reach Out and Grabbed her Arm forcefully, surprised and raised her Head, and Saw Conan's ugly Face.
"What was Brother Chi's Reaction?" Conan saw Ayumi's blank Face, and quickly repeated, "I mean, when you Saw Brother Chi in the morning, what was his Attitude towards that Woman?"
Ayumi was startled by Conan's ugly Face, "I, didn't I Say it already, Brother Chi was Still Can sleeping..."
"Conan, what are you doing!" Genta Said dissatisfied.
"Sorry Ayumi, I was a little excited," Conan then Realized that he had frightened Ayumi, Let Go of his Hand, his Face eased a little, but he couldn't help but Ask eagerly, "Didn't you See him?"
"When that Older Sister went to the Room Door to See Brother Chi, I followed up and Saw him, Brother Chi was Still Can sleeping on the Bed," Ayumi didn't understand Why, but Said truthfully, "Because Older Sister Said Brother Chi was feeling unwell and had just fallen asleep not long ago, don't disturb his Rest, so we didn't enter the Room..."
Conan Suddenly Thought of what Jodie had Said.
When Jodie was still a Little Girl, she had Seen Belmode. Belmode lied to Jodie that Jodie's Father was just asleep, but it was a Corpse, and then set Fire to the House...
