# Chapter 264: The Corpse is Already Cool

Returning to the Room, Suguro Hisashi took out Liquor.

While drinking Liquor and laughing heartily, Mori Kogoro told Suguro Hisashi about his Case Solving history.

Although he didn't remember most of what happened...

Mouri Ran was accompanying them Aside, occasionally grumbling a bit.

Chi Feichei poured a Glass of Wine, put in Ice Cube, and sat by the Balcony Window Side, sending Email on his Mobile Phone.

[Teraizumi went out. --Raki]

[The Fog is too thick, inconvenient to Start Doing. --Gin]

[Don't Worry, wait until Tomorrow, maybe his Corpse will Already be Cool. --Raki]

[Then I'll wait and See. --Gin]

Conan's Brain Pain from Mori Kogoro's noise. He Turned Head to See Chi Feichei sitting quietly alone in the Corner. He Step Forward and asked, "Brother Chi, what are you Looking at?"

"Just A Bit of Work Matters." Chi Feichei cleared the Email and put away his Mobile Phone.

According to Gin's Personality, even if he wasn't in the Vicinity, he would have Human arranged nearby.

So he didn't bring Haibara Ai this time.

...

The next Day.

Conan woke up and Again felt something pressing on his Neck. His Line of Sight moved down, and he saw an enlarged Snake Face and a pair of Snake Eye Staring intently at him. He fell Silence.

Staying in the Same Room as Uncle Mori meant being bothered by snoring and unable to sleep. Staying in the Same Room as Chi Feichei meant waking up in the Morning would be especially invigorating!

"Awake?" Chi Feichei had Already woken up. He was standing in front of the Windowside, Looking at the thick Fog Outside, and hadn't gone out for Morning Exercise.

Conan lifted Hassashi away and Got Up. "Hassashi was pressing on my Neck, and you didn't even Help lift it off..."

"It's Cold." Chi Feichei explained concisely.

Conan gave him Half-Moon Eyes: "..."

Emotion he is just a Human Shape warm baby?

After Conan finished Wash Up, Chi Feichei took Conan Go Out. After knocking on the Door, they went to eat Breakfast with Mouri Ran.

Mori Kogoro slept until 9 Point before waking up, while Teraizumi Daigo had not yet returned.

Outside was Still enveloped by thick Fog, a stretch of pale white.

Hassashi hid under Chi Feichei's Clothes without showing its Head. "Hey, the Weather these past two Day is too much Torture for Snake..."

Chi Feichei mentally agreed. Yesterday it was Still unbearably hot, making Human collapse, but as soon as the Fog came, the Temperature dropped quite a bit Again. Even he felt it was bothersome.

The three Human who caused trouble last night were quite Happy to Discovery that Teraizumi Daigo hadn't returned yet.

If something happened to Teraizumi Daigo and the Dino wasn't on the display stand, then today's exhibition Opening Ceremony couldn't be held.

"Uncle, isn't your Company President Not Carrying a Phone Call?" Conan reminded.

"Oh, By the Way," Kuroiwa Zenkichi only then remembered to Call. "I forgot to Call..."

Chi Feichei was a Bit Speechless.

The Technology in this World is very Strange. Sometimes it's very advanced, But sometimes some Human can't even handle Normal Communication Equipment, For Example, Inspector Megure who can't use a Smartphone...

Compared to that, the People from the Organization have Always kept up with the Technology Trend.

It made him Suddenly remember Pisco who was Dispose of.

Logically speaking, one Task failure, even if it meant being Wanted with the Criminal Charge of Murder, at most would mean going from the open to the hidden. The Organization wouldn't easily give up.

But, Pisco got old.

Although his Eyesight, Marksmanship, and Body hadn't gotten old, his Mentality did.

He started being nostalgic, Always liking to Say about serving The Boss for many years Matters; He was no longer Happy to accept new Affairs. When taking Action, he forgot that Nowadays there are Things like Surveillance Room and Camera that need attention.

What was more fatal was that once a Human gets old, they will be more doting towards their Descendant. Pisco couldn't avoid this common practice either. Even if he had no children, But he cared too much for Irish Whiskey, whom he treated as a nephew. This included not only giving guidance But also secretly Leak some Matters that Irish Whiskey shouldn't know.

The Organization could let the Organization's Elder go into Retirement, can tolerate his Error, But cannot tolerate him repeatedly breaking the Rules.

Perhaps in Pisco's Heart, the Organization was Still the first priority, and his Own Subtle Move didn't obstruct or Threaten the Organization. But in The Boss's View, Pisco had Already changed, changed to the Point where he didn't even follow the Organization's Rules, and The Boss Worried that Pisco would develop disloyalty.

Of Course, that was The Boss's Statement. He mentioned these Things to him on the Day of Brainwashing, Possibility Worried that he would Feel repelled Seeing an Organization Elder not meet a Good Intention and Heart have rejection.

In the moment Chi Feichei was distracted, the Phone Call had Already connected.

"Let me!" "Let me properly Teach a Lesson the Company President! Such a big Human Already, Still making Human Worry, Honestly..." Mori Kogoro Receive the Phone Call. "Hey, are you the Company President Whether? It's me, Mori Kogoro! Where are you right Present? ...So dark? Hello? Hello? Company President?"

The Phone Call Seemingly had been hung up.

Conan quickly asked, "What's Wrong?"

Mori Kogoro's Expression became serious. "He said in a very pained Sound, 'This Is what Place? How is it so dark?', Then... Then the Phone Call was hung up."

"So dark?" Conan pointed Outside the window and Said, "But Outside there's Fog, it's all white."

Waiting until 10 Point, the Bell Outside rang.

Outside the window was Still enveloped by thick Fog, and Teraizumi Daigo Still hadn't returned.

A Group of People waited in the Exhibition Hall. Chi Feichei Go To Aside, Looking at the Fog Outside the window. He Discovery Mouri Ran leaving and followed her out.

In the thick Fog, they couldn't See any Figure a few steps away.

Chi Feichei Discovery Mouri Ran Seemingly just Think the Atmosphere inside was stuffy and came out for a walk. He caught up and Said, "Ran..."

Mouri Ran was Walking when she Suddenly heard a Cold Sound calling her Name from Behind. Subconsciously, she immediately imagined quite a few Monster Legend on foggy Day and jumped in fright. "Ah!"

"What's Wrong?" Someone shouted out. Their Location Seemingly was Just a few steps away. "Hey! Did something happen?"

Mouri Ran Turned Head and Saw it was Chi Feichei. She breathed a sigh of relief. "Brother Hichiji, you startled me."

"What's Wrong?" An Uncle wearing a Guard Uniform Come Over. Once Seeing the Situation at the Crime Scene, he Vigilance Staring at Chi Feichei. "This Miss, don't be afraid. I am the Hotel's Security Guard, Noda Kazuo..."

"It's nothing, We know each other!" Mouri Ran quickly explained for Chi Feichei.

"In Front is a Cliff." Chi Feichei Said a Sentence.

Mouri Ran Be Stunned, then Realize. So it turns out Chi Feichei was going to remind her...

With this commotion, Conan and Mori Kogoro's A Group of People also ran out.

"What's Wrong?"

"It's nothing, it was me who wanted to come out for a walk. Hissashi Saw me Walking towards the Cliff and Speak Out to remind me," Mouri Ran Smilingly said apologetically. "As a result, the Fog was too thick, and Suddenly there was a Sound Behind me, which startled me. So... Sorry, Brother Hichiji."

"Say So, There is Indeed a Cliff over There..." Noda Kazuo Turned Head to Look in the Direction Mouri Ran was going Before, Then Smilingly said to Chi Feichei Again. "Sorry, I Still thought this Miss had encountered a Bad Person."

"It's nothing," Chi Feichei didn't take it to Heart and reminded Mouri Ran, "On a Day with thick Fog, Girl shouldn't Run Away randomly. It's Unsafe."

Meeting a Bad Person isn't scary; Mouri Ran's Karate will Teach a Lesson him how to behave. But who knows where Gin is right Present? If Mouri Ran keeps Walking and walks out onto the Outside Street, meeting a Gin would be Fun...

"Thank You, Brother Hichiji!" Mouri Ran Smilingly said.

Conan felt a wave of Vigilance. He, Again Worried his Girlfriend would Run Away...

No way, Afterwards he Still had to find an Opportunity to Call Ran and express his concern!

"Look at how many Human were mobilized for you..." Mori Kogoro quietly indicated that he had heard the shout and Still rushed over immediately.

In the thick Fog, Suddenly the Sound of a Car Engine roaring came.

Conan quickly Said, "A Car is coming!"

Mori Kogoro Also Said, "Company President Teraizumi has finally returned..."

"This Sound is not Teraizumi's Car," Security Guard Noda Kazuo Said with a smile. "This is Mr. Xiang Liang's Car."

"Huh?" Conan Turned Head to Look. At the End of the Road, a Car drove in through the thick Fog. When it got close, Everyone could only Then See clearly that it was a Purple Car. It was Indeed not the Red Ferrari Dino.

The Car stopped Beside the A Group of People. Xiang Liang Xin Jie poked his Head out and Asked, "Did something happen? Why is Everyone here?"

"Really?" Conan Go To the Car Side and Turned Head to Look at the Security Guard. "You Just by listening to the Engine Sound know whose Car this is, So Intense!"

"As Long As they are Guest who often Come Over to the Hotel, I will have an Impression of them," Noda Kazuo Smilingly explained. He bowed and Said, "Sorry, I have to go back to Work."

Conan Again pressed Xiang Liang Xin Jie about where he went last night.

Xiang Liang Xin Jie's Expression was A Bit uncomfortable. He Just Said that he drove around in the Vicinity last night and didn't meet Teraizumi Daigo on the Road either.

And not long After Xiang Liang Xin Jie drove to the Parking Lot to Park the Car, he ran back over Again. "This is bad! The Company President is in the Car in the Parking Lot over There! I Think his Appearance isn't quite Wrong!"

As A Group of People rushed over, the thick Fog gradually dispersed.

The Red Dino was parked diagonally in the Parking Space, and the Engine hadn't been turned off yet.

Mori Kogoro ran Step Forward, pulled open the Car Door, and was overwhelmed by the pungent Scent, stepping back.

Teraizumi Daigo was sitting in the Driver's Seat. His Corpse was Already Cool...

Teng Lü Jiu Zhi's Face changed greatly. "Quickly Call an Ambulance!"

"It's too late, he is Already dead," Mori Kogoro Said heavily. "The Cause of Death is Carbon Monoxide Poisoning. The Car's Engine was not turned off, and the Car was filled with the Exhaust Gas emitted by the Car. According to my Speculation, I'm afraid it was Possibility due to Exhaust Backflow entering the Car. This Should be an Accident..."

Conan was Pondering when he Suddenly glimpsed that the Car Window Glass was lowered A Bit. His Face changed, and he Sensed that the Matters were not simple.

Why?

Why wasn't the Window closed?

Could this really be an Accident...?

...

More than ten minutes After, the Police arrived. It wasn't Inspector Megure whom Chi Feichei was familiar with, But Mori Kogoro was familiar with him.

Shizuoka Prefectural Police Inspector Yokomizo.

The Forensic Doctor inferred that the Cause of Death was Carbon Monoxide Poisoning from Car Exhaust. There were no other Trauma on the Body. The Time of Death was between 9 Point and 10 Point AM.

Conan didn't pay attention to the Police Officer's investigation. He Go To Aside while Pondering and looked up, discovering Chi Feichei Also had a Thoughtful Appearance. His Heart immediately felt Balance.

It seems Chi Feichei Also had Suspicion, But hadn't figured out what was going on yet...

Only when Everyone is at the Same starting Point can they Happily exchange Reasoning.

"Hey, Brother Chi..."

Chi Feichei lowered his gaze to Look at Conan.

"You Also discovered it, something is very Wrong, right?" Conan Asked.

"Uh-huh," Chi Feichei raised his eyes to Look at the Front. "Such thick Fog, Suddenly completely dispersed."

Conan stumbled in his Original Place, almost falling. "Hey hey, were you Just Now thinking about this?"

"Is that not allowed?" Chi Feichei counter-asked.

Such a Strange Situation, Actually no one noticed.

Clearly, when they Run Away to the Parking Lot, the Fog was Still very thick. Afterwards, After Seeing the Dino, the Fog dispersed, the sky cleared up, and the Sun Also came out.

Logically speaking, the Fog couldn't have dispersed that Fast. It looked like someone used Ninjutsu to cover the Crime Scene.

This World is Indeed Strange.
