Chapter 256 Lucky Koi Maiden Ran
Suzuki Sonoko chuckled, "Hey, are you just sulking a little? Feeling like you didn't get to show off today?"
"Children who don't listen just need a beating." Chi Feichei's tone was chilling.
Conan: "..."
Listen to that, is that even human?
He suspected Chi Feichei was threatening him—sulk again, and I'll beat you up!
Too much bullying, wasn't he even allowed to be unhappy?
Chi Feichei noticed Conan glaring at him, ignored it, lowered his eyes, and drank his coffee.
Seeing that Chi Feichei was still ignoring him, Conan immediately wanted to roll up his sleeves... but thinking that he couldn't beat Chi Feichei, he gave up.
He'd remember this, he'd get his revenge sooner or later!
"Okay, okay, Conan is also amazing! This time, it's also thanks to you remembering to make a Recording, that Hassashi-niichan could figure it out so quickly." Ran praised him in a tone of coaxing Children.
Conan weakly hung his head, such obvious comfort.
Suzuki Sonoko stopped teasing Conan and turned to ask Chi Feichei, "By the way, Hassashi-niichan, are you going to Yoshinoya with us tomorrow?"
"Not going." Chi Feichei decisively refused to join the fun.
"What about you, Doctor?" Suzuki Sonoko asked again.
"I have something else to do tomorrow, so I won't keep you company. Be safe, okay?" Belmode refused with a smile.
She couldn't follow them any further, or she'd easily run into the FBI. Last time with the Garden Party case, plus this Incident, a certain Famous Detective was one step behind Raki, once could be a coincidence, but twice was enough to prove Raki's Ability.
Raki was very troublesome and also very Keenness. She couldn't wander around in front of Raki every day, to avoid Raki noticing her Identity. Now it seemed that Raki and Ran and These People had a good Relationship, and Ran was still that kind Child who liked to worry about others, and hadn't been influenced by Raki.
This matter could be put aside for now... Once she secretly dealt with Sherry who had shrunk, and Conan could maintain his current State without being discovered by Raki and the Organization, then, as long as it didn't involve the Organization, Raki and Ran, Conan should be able to maintain a Friend Relationship, and could also Help take care of them.
Looking at it this way, Sherry had to be dealt with as soon as possible. Conan could turn back, Sherry must be by his side, but where exactly was she...?
While Belmode was lost in thought, Ran handed a Card to Chi Feichei, "Hassashi-niichan, this is for you!"
Chi Feichei took it and looked at it. It was a free Invitation Ticket for a Hotel, with 'First Prize' marked on it. What was he supposed to do with this kind of Things?
"Yesterday on the way to the Red Prince Hotel, I saw a lottery on the Roadside, so I tried it, and as a result, I won the first prize free Invitation Ticket," Ran explained, "My Father used to ask you to go out and play, but you never agreed, so this time I wanted to invite you to come along!"
Conan leaned forward to look at the Invitation Ticket and reminded, "But, Ran-neechan, this Invitation Ticket says that it only provides free accommodation for one Guest..."
"It's okay," Ran took out two more identical Invitation Tickets and smiled, "There are three first prizes in total. Because I thought of inviting Hassashi-niichan to play, I drew two more times, and as a result, I won all of them. One for Hassashi-niichan, one for me, one for Father, and Conan is a Child, so he can be brought along, just enough."
Chi Feichei: "..."
Ran said the words 'just enough', didn't her conscience hurt? People held an Activity for Promotion, set up three first prizes, and as a result, they were all drawn by one person. Here, Ran was still happily collecting three 'free spots', the event organizers over there were probably dumbfounded.
Ran was really a standard Lucky Koi Maiden in lottery, card games and other Gambling Luck Activities, like she had a Cheat Code 'Luck +9999' turned on. He even suspected that Ran was the one who possessed the Protagonist Halo.
Speaking of which, it wasn't impossible. Belmode, this External Support, was first Reached Out by Ran a year ago. And among the Organization members who died unexpectedly, Ireland even fought with Ran, as for Tequila, Curaçao and others, they had no Intersection with Ran... Thinking about it carefully, it was terrifying.
Conan was also Speechless. In terms of lottery, Ran has never lost...
Ran didn't know how much Chi Feichei had instantly imagined, looking at Chi Feichei expectantly, "Hassashi-niichan, you will go, right?"
Chi Feichei nodded, indicating his agreement, put down the Invitation Ticket, then raised his eyes to look at Ran, and asked seriously, "Ran, do you think I am a good person?"
Belmode glanced sideways, and found that Chi Feichei's Gaze was calmly cold, her Nerves suddenly tensed. What did Raki want to do?
"Eh?" Ran was used to Chi Feichei's Gaze, and didn't find it strange, she nodded seriously without hesitation, "Of course, I don't know what others think, but I think Hassashi-niichan is a very, very good person, why are you asking this?"
"Nothing." Chi Feichei withdrew his Line of Sight, regardless of whether it was useful or not, the Nice Guy Card issued by the Lucky Koi Maiden must be accepted.
After sitting for a while, guessing that the Time was almost up, he went into the room and saw that Hissashi had finished shedding its skin, and the group said goodbye and left.
Chi Feichei sent the group Go Downstairs, talking to Ran and Suzuki Sonoko.
"Whether or Not I should drive you Home?"
"No Need, I'll take the Train Home."
"I also want to buy some Food Ingredients on the way..."
Belmode stood aside quietly watching, her Expression unconsciously carrying a hint of seriousness. Why did Raki suddenly ask that Problem just now? If Ran answered 'not a good person', what would Raki's Reaction be? She seemed to be a little too optimistic.
Raki was still Raki, that time bomb. Although with Ran's Personality, speaking and doing Things would take into account the Mood of the people around her, it was unlikely to annoy Raki, but who knew what Raki was thinking, whether he would suddenly have a brain spasm and attack Ran. It was very worrying...
Chi Feichei noticed a Line of Sight beside him that was becoming heavier and heavier, and Turn Head to Look.
Belmode instantly changed to Niide Tomoaki's gentle smile, nodded towards Chi Feichei and Ran and others, and said very naturally, "My Car is parked in the back, then I'll go back first, see you another Day!"
"Okay, Doctor, see you another Day!" Ran greeted.
"See you another Day!" Suzuki Sonoko followed up with a Sentence, seeing 'Niide Tomoaki' Turn Around and leave, she teased Chi Feichei again, "Hassashi-niichan, you should also say goodbye..." In return, she got a cold look from Chi Feichei.
After Belmode Turn Around, the smile on her Face disappeared again in an instant. Couldn't kill him, couldn't get rid of him, couldn't flirt with him... Was Raki sent by heaven to counter her?
In a Car on the Streetside not far away, Akai Shuichi watched Belmode's entire Face-changing process, and was silent.
"She really knows how to act." Jodie said in a low voice. This speed of changing Face, she felt scared just watching it.
Akai Shuichi continued to be silent, recalling the Expression on the Face of the fake Niide just now. The Expression was very serious, as if she had encountered some tricky Matter. Ordinary difficulties were not enough to make the Thousand-Faced Witch of the Organization show that kind of Expression. What exactly did she want to do?
"After that Woman replaced Niide, she began to contact him, it seems their Goal is indeed that Young Master," Jodie analyzed seriously, "Maybe they are aiming for the Shinchi Group and Field Group, these two Groups have development in many countries, if they are controlled by them, the Consequences will be unimaginable!"
Akai Shuichi was not in a hurry, but instead asked, "How do you think the Organization will attack?"
Jodie pondered, "Replace the person, as long as they collect enough Information, and use the Disguise Technique..."
"Although Belmode can Disguise as a Male, it will be very Uncomfortable to maintain Disguise Activity all the time." Akai Shuichi reminded.
"She can Disguise other Members of that Organization," Jodie continued to guess, "According to the Situation we investigated, Chi Feichei has a cold Relationship with his Parents, and they don't meet a few times a year, even if he shows a little Abnormality, his Parents won't suspect it, replacing the Heir is indeed a good Method."
"To control two Groups, it's enough to attack the Person in Charge of the Group, there's no need to attack an Heir who hasn't yet been involved in Group affairs. Even if the Organization has some concerns and plans to start with the Heir, they won't be in a hurry to kill that Young Master at present. They will first understand the Situation, arrange people around him, and then replace him before he inherits," Akai Shuichi paused, "It's still not certain now, it may also be that the Young Master has grasped some Information and has been designated as a target for elimination, or perhaps they plan to use him to do something..."
"Let's continue to arrange people to do Surveillance!" Jodie suggested, "Niide has already been rescued, they have freed up their hands and may attack the next Goal at any time."
Akai Shuichi thought of Surveillance, and had a headache. With Chi Feichei's Keenness, if he let other people go, he would be discovered if they were not careful. No wonder Belmode looked so bad just now, it was estimated that Matters were not progressing smoothly.
To Surveillance Chi Feichei, probably only he could do it, but Belmode also had to be watched, it was not safe to leave it to others. He was worried that Belmode was just randomly finding a Goal to Mislead them, diverting their attention, and when he came to watch Chi Feichei, Belmode would attack the Real Goal, or it was originally to lure them out. When they went to Surveillance Chi Feichei, Belmode would figure out their Movement and surround them with people.
"Shu!" Jodie was a little anxious.
"Don't worry, wait a little longer," Akai Shuichi looked at the white Car coming out of the Metropolitan Police Department Parking Lot, "Now the Organization's Purpose is not clear, you first find an Opportunity to contact Chi Feichei."
Can't be anxious, now is not the Time for him to jump out.
...On the Building not far away, two groups of Crow finished chatting. One team followed Belmode's leaving Car, and one team waited for a while, and after Akai Shuichi started the Car, followed far behind.
Back Upstairs, Chi Feichei stood on the Balcony, watching the Crow team fly away.
Non-Ink flew back, "Master, no one is doing Surveillance nearby."
Chi Feichei was not in a hurry to communicate with Non-Ink, he went into the room and checked the room. He remembered that Kir was because she invited Mori Kogoro and Conan to her Home, and as a result, stepped on the Bug that Conan didn't have time to retrieve, and then immediately contacted Gin, and was discovered by Conan's Identity. He didn't want to be exposed so inexplicably.
After checking the room and confirming that there were no Bugs, Chi Feichei closed the Glass Door leading to the Balcony, Turn Around and sat back on the Sofa, "How is the Address Investigation going?"
"In addition to Activity at Niide Hospital, Belmode also has two Temporary Residence, we have already investigated them clearly," Non-Ink said immediately, "In addition, there are not many FBI personnel. Those two agents who were sent to the Metropolitan Police Department by Master, after coming out, they have been playing around everywhere, and even left Tokyo this morning. The remaining Members live separately, each Temporary Residence will not stay for more than three Days, but they are all in the Beika Town, Beihu Town area. They also have a Gathering Place, we have also investigated it clearly, there are Crow staring there at any time."
Hissashi pushed open the Lid of the Glass Tank, slipped down the cabinet and climbed onto the Sofa. Just as it reached Chi Feichei's side, it was picked up by Chi Feichei: "..."
"Has the Organization that is causing Kaito Troublesome been found?" Chi Feichei asked again. When it's hot, it's very comfortable to hold a cool Hissashi in your Hand, it's good for relieving heat and cooling down.
