Chapter 984: Just to Use Them for Experiments?
Chi Feichei went to bed early and got up early. It wasn't even dawn yet. Considering there were no tall Buildings for him to practice Building Jump, he washed up a bit, soaked the rice for porridge, and took Hassashi for a run to the Park in Beika Town for Morning Exercise.
When it was still dark, there were almost no figures on the Street, but when Chi Feichei returned from Morning Exercise, there were already many people who had gotten up for Morning Exercise.
"Good morning!"
"Good morning, everyone!"
"Let's be full of energy today too!"
A Young Man ran along the Road, greeting Passersby, caught up with Chi Feichei, and greeted him enthusiastically, "Good morning! I've never seen you before, did you just move here?"
Chi Feichei hesitated for a moment and slowed down his pace. He had done Morning Exercise in Beihu Town for so long, and no one had ever greeted a stranger so enthusiastically. Could it be that people in Beika Town were more enthusiastic? Seeing a sunny and enthusiastic Smiling Face early in the morning made one lose all temper.
"I'm staying temporarily at my Teacher's Home."
"I See, then have a happy day today too! I still have to go to Work, so I won't talk anymore, see you another day!" The Man said enthusiastically, Speed Up Pace and ran forward, waving to other people and greeting them, "Good morning! ...Good morning to you too today!"
"Good morning, Doctor Owada!"
"Doctor Owada, you're still so full of Vitality this morning!"
Men and women, young and old, doing Morning Exercise all greeted him with smiles.
Chi Feichei also Speed Up Pace and ran back to Mori Detective Agency. He first cooked the porridge, and then started making three Bentos for the school-goers to take to School.
As soon as Conan woke up, he smelled the Fragrance of Meals and immediately became energetic. He ran to the Kitchen and found that the Food Ingredients Chi Feichei had prepared looked very normal, and his Mood suddenly improved a lot. "Good morning, Brother Chi..." He was really worried that Chi Feichei would go further and further down the path of Dark Cuisine, which would be such a Pity.
"Brother Hichiji, good morning!"
"Brother Hichiji, good morning..."
Mouri Ran and Haibara Ai also followed closely and ran to the Kitchen.
Chi Feichei spread three sheets of Nori on the Cutting Board, didn't look up, and casually took a Small Knife from the Knife Rack. "Go Wash Up, then eat Breakfast."
"Yes~"
The three of them went to Wash Up in a very good Mood.
Chi Feichei quickly carved the Nori sheets into the Appearance of tiger heads, put the Omurice into the Bento Box, and then pasted the Nori sheets on. The Black Nori sheets became the black stripes on the tiger heads, and the hollowed-out parts just revealed the Egg Crepe of the Omurice. The overall look was a realistic tiger head in black and yellow, majestic and solemn.
When Mouri Ran and the other two finished Wash Up and arrived at the Kitchen, Chi Feichei had also made the Potato Pancake and turned off the heat for the porridge.
Mouri Ran took the Lid of the Bento Box, preparing to close the Bento, but after seeing the tiger head, she was stunned for a moment and approached in amazement, "So, so amazing, is it made of Nori sheets...?"
Conan jumped and jumped beside her, but couldn't see. "Sister Ran, I want to see!"
Haibara Ai silently cast a scrutinizing Gaze. The Famous Detective's Ideology was severely infantilized, and he was actually addicted to Acting Cute.
"Okay, this is Conan's," Mouri Ran was no longer in a hurry to close the Lid, and bent down to distribute the Bentos. "This is Ai's, this is the Lid..."
Haibara Ai took the Bento, looked at the lifelike tiger head in the Box, and was stunned for a moment.
It was really amazing. She even felt that using this Skill to make their Lunch Bento was too wasteful.
The three of them admired it for a long time before reluctantly closing the Bento Lids. Mouri Ran started to Help serve porridge, and Haibara Ai and Conan carried the Potato Pancake out the Door.
Chi Feichei suddenly freed up his hands, Realized that Kuroba Kaito should also be getting up to prepare to go to School, took out his Mobile Phone to Call.
The Phone Call was connected soon after.
"Hello, may I ask who this is..."
"Me."
"Brother Hichiji..." On the other end of the Phone, Kuroba Kaito clearly let out a Yawn, paused for a moment before saying, "Is there something Matter? Do you want me to ask for leave?"
Chi Feichei saw through Kuroba Kaito's intention of wanting to find a Reason to skip class for no Reason. "It's nothing, I just wanted to tell you that your Diarrhea should not be caused by the Stargazy Pie..."
At the Entrance of the Kitchen, Mouri Ran, Conan, and Haibara Ai, who were holding porridge and Potato Pancake and preparing to go out, froze.
Kuroba Kaito was also Be Confused for a moment. He had almost forgotten about this Matter. Why did Brother Hichiji still remember it? "Re, really? How do you know..."
"Others have tried it, and everyone is fine," Chi Feichei Say.
Mouri Ran: "..." In Other Words, Brother Hichiji taught her to make Stargazy Pie last night...
Haibara Ai: "..." Was it to use them for Experiment?
Conan: "..." This Fellow... he Seemingly Understand why Chi Feichei stayed without hesitation last night, just to conveniently Observation them, this Group of White Mouse!
"Ah... anyway, I won't eat Fish again in the future, definitely not! Okay, I'm going to eat Breakfast, what about you?"
"Just preparing to eat Breakfast, then we'll talk later." Chi Feichei hung up the Phone Call and Say to the three people who were looking back at him with resentful Gaze, "Go eat Breakfast."
Mouri Ran and the other two: "..." It's this kind of Attitude of 'So what if you know? I didn't plan to hide it from you, and I don't feel guilty either'... it's infuriating.
After eating Breakfast, the three people's Mood improved. They Open the tiger head Bento to take a Look, and their Mood became even better. They decided to forgive Chi Feichei for the sake of the Delicious Food.
"Then I'll take Ai and Conan to Doctor's House first. After Ai gets her Schoolbag, we'll go to School on the way. Brother Hichiji, just put Father's Breakfast in the Microwave to Keep Warm. If you and Father are too lazy to cook Lunch, just go Downstairs to Poirot Cafe and eat something casually... I must show Sonoko my Bento at noon," Mouri Ran said Smilingly, put the Bento Box into her Schoolbag, picked up her Schoolbag, and took Conan and Haibara Ai out the Door. "Then we're going to School!"
Chi Feichei stayed on the Third Floor, made Mori Kogoro's Breakfast and put it in the Microwave, took out his Mobile Phone to Check the Surveillance Video of the White Mouse in the Laboratory, and sent an Email to Yingqu Yan Nan to Help add Feed.
After Mori Kogoro got up and ate Breakfast, the two of them went to the office on the Second Floor.
Mori Kogoro went Downstairs to get the Newspaper, and then went to the Refrigerator to get a can of Beer. Seeing Chi Feichei staring at the Beer in his hand, he coughed dryly, "I think there won't be any Commission today, it's a good time to relax..."
"Ding-ling-ling—!"
The Phone Call on the Desk rang.
Mori Kogoro was silent for a moment, put the Beer on the Table, and answered the Phone Call. "I bet it's mostly a wrong number... R, Ran? ...I See, so where are you now? ...Okay, I got it, I'll go over immediately, remember to Call the School to ask for leave..."
... Sachiko Nishimura is Dead.
Downstairs in the Apartment Building, the Police had already blocked the Entrance and Exit of the Building.
Mouri Ran, Conan, and Haibara Ai had already given up on going to School and were standing Downstairs waiting for Mori Kogoro and Chi Feichei.
Yesterday, she was still a fine Human, and greeted them gently, full of Expectation to go Home and prepare for a Date with her Boyfriend. As a result, on the way to School this morning, they heard the Onlookers say that someone was Dead, which made their Mood somewhat heavy.
Mouri Ran couldn't let it go in her Heart. She originally suggested letting the Children go to School first, but Conan saw the Case and didn't want to leave at all without understanding it. Haibara Ai also asked Doctor Agasa to find a Reason to Call the School and skip class with them.
Although that was unscientific, she always felt that if Miss Nishimura hadn't met Edogawa and Brother Hichiji yesterday, maybe things would have been better...
On the way, Mori Kogoro contacted Inspector Megure. Hearing Inspector Megure say that Wataru Takagi was at the Crime Scene, he contacted Wataru Takagi again. After arriving, he directly led a Group of People Upstairs.
Wataru Takagi opened the Door as soon as he heard the Knocking Sound. "This Matter doesn't require Mr. Mouri to come, does it?"
Mori Kogoro entered the Door with a Serious Face. "This Deceased once Helped my Young lady, and I want to Understand the Situation."
Wataru Takagi and Mouri Ran Nod to each other as greetings, then Turn Around and led a Group of People to the Dining Room. "According to Miss Nishimura's Colleague, they found that she was Absent without asking for leave, and when they Come Over to Check, they discovered this Matter. The Deceased's Back of Head was struck by a Heavy Object, causing Skull depression. The Weapon is the Copper Ornament placed in her Room. The estimated Time of Death is between seven and eight thirty last night."
Chi Feichei scanned the Room. Sachiko Nishimura's Corpse had already been taken away by the Police, but looking at the evidence collection Mark left by the Police on the Ground, the person should have fallen at the Entrance of the Dining Room, and the Weapon fell next to the Corpse.
In the Dining Room, the Red Wine and Food placed on the long Table were both for two people. One side also had an Ashtray, but the Ashtray was very clean, and the Food and Liquor on that side had not been eaten either.
"It's exactly dinner Time," Mori Kogoro murmured softly.
Conan Looked at the Table, looked up and asked Mouri Ran, "Sister Ran, does Young lady Sachiko usually smoke Cigarette?"
Mouri Ran's Emotion was still very low, she shook her Head and did not Speak Out.
"Then she must have been sitting here," Conan Judgment, "and the Guest who smokes Cigarette was sitting there."
"We have confirmed that the person who came here last night was someone like her Boyfriend, because at around 7:30, the Sound of Miss Nishimura and this visitor talking was heard by the Miss who lived Next Door when she passed by. Miss Nishimura Seemingly Say to The Other Party, asking The Other Party to take her with them next time, saying that such beautiful Scenery should not be enjoyed by The Other Party alone. Afterwards, she also mentioned that the Meat seemed to be a bit overcooked. They were all very ordinary Dialogue. The Miss who lived Next Door didn't want to disturb Miss Nishimura's Date with her Boyfriend and left quickly." Wataru Takagi Say, walking to the Dining Table. "That visitor Seemingly was very interested in Mountain Climbing and even left a Photo, which was pressed under the Ashtray. Colleagues from the Forensic Science Division have already taken the Photo as Evidence."
"Then it should be her Boyfriend who committed Murder?" Mori Kogoro Say.
Mouri Ran was Be Stunned. "How do you Say?"
Mori Kogoro stroked his chin, pondered and Say, "If the Criminal suddenly broke in while they were eating and Murder Miss Sachiko, how could her Boyfriend suddenly disappear? Without even making a Report to Police, just leaving like that, isn't it very Weird?"
Conan Looked at the Desktop and pondered, it was indeed very suspicious... Wataru Takagi's Mobile Phone rang. He answered the Phone Call, said a few words to the other side, and hung up before Say to Mori Kogoro, Chi Feichei, and the Group of People, "Forensic Personnel called to Say that only Miss Nishimura's Fingerprint were found on the Copper Ornament, Photo, and even the Wine Glass. There were no Fingerprint of other people, not even Trace of wiping."
Conan pondered, raised his head and just wanted to communicate with Chi Feichei, Suddenly Discovery that Chi Feichei had disappeared without anyone knowing when.
