Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

Chapter 3828 There is still a problem

Minglong Hotel is located on the edge of the city and has a quiet environment.

The surrounding pine forest is lush and leafy, and there is a roaring waterfall behind the hotel. Even on a sunny day, there seems to be a hint of damp coolness in the air.

Chi Feichi walked out of the hotel and went to a pine tree on the side of the road. He lit a cigarette, leaned against the tree, took out his cell phone and started checking messages.

Ogikubo Ryuji, the police offer a 100,000 yen bounty for his arrest. He was involved in a fight eight years ago and was involved in an armed robbery three weeks ago...

Because Ryuji Ogikubo did not succeed in stealing 100 million yen from Nakashiro Electric Company, Nakashiro Electric Company did not offer a reward for its recovery or arrest.

Generally speaking, the bounty price for Ogikubo Ryuji is neither high nor low. It is the type that "it's fine to catch him if it's convenient, but he's too lazy to catch him if it's not convenient."

Now the police have confirmed that Ogikubo Ryuji is in Beppu, and Conan has also been keeping his eyes on Ogikubo Ryuji. It seems that there is no need for him to use July's identity to catch people. He can just follow everyone and enjoy the vacation today.

"Buzz."

A new email was sent to Chi Feichi's mobile phone.

While waiting for a reply, Chi Feichi carefully read his work email again, and when he was about to check the news reports on his mobile phone, he received a reply.

[The kid has been in Kyoto for the past two days. I heard that he will stay in Kyoto for at least a week. I will arrive in Kyoto the day after tomorrow, and we can meet there.]

the day after tomorrow……

Chi Feichi recalled Umbrella's recent affairs and quickly edited a new email to send out.

[Understood. I'll contact you the day after tomorrow when I arrive in Kyoto.]

After the email showed that it was sent successfully, Chi Feichi dialed a phone number.

The phone rang for a long time before it was answered, and a bear roar with a rising tone was heard from the other end.

"roar?"

"Tuanzi, it's me."

“Chichi…”

Tuanzi made a hurried chirping sound on the other end of the phone, and it was obvious that she was happy and coquettish.

Fei Chi climbed on Chi Fei Chi's shoulder and put his head on the phone. When he heard Tuan Zi's voice, he felt excited to contact an old friend. "Master, please say hello to Tuan Zi for me!"

"I see..." Chi Feichi responded to Tuanzi and conveyed Feichi's greetings, "Feichi says hello to you."

"Hmm." There was a hint of joy in Tuanzi's voice.

"Tuanzi must be saying hello to me too!" Fei Chi said happily.

Although it can't understand what Tuanzi is saying, it can understand his emotions.

It has rich experience in cross-species communication!

"That's right, Tuanzi asked me to take you over to play when I have time." Chi Feichi continued to pass the message.

"Hum, hum..."

Tuanzi hummed for a while on the other end of the phone.

"I called you because I have something to discuss with you," Chi Feichi explained. "Some time ago, the Kyoto Zoo proposed to the Ueno Zoo that they wanted to borrow giant pandas to exhibit at their zoo for a week and let the giant pandas be special guests for their anniversary celebration. I wanted to agree to them and then accompany you to Kyoto..."

“Roar!”

When Tuanzi heard that Chi Feichi wanted to go with her, she immediately expressed her willingness and then started to act coquettishly.

"No problem. I'll stay with you in Kyoto for a week and handle some odd jobs. I'll come to see you when I'm free in the evening. It's okay if you want to come to the hotel to see me at night," Chi Feichi agreed. "When you finish your work, I'll pick you up and go back to Tokyo together."

"Brother Feichi..."

Huiyuan Ai walked from the gate to the pine tree, and signaled Chi Feichi to look at the source of the low pressure around him, "Who are you talking to on the phone?"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu followed Huihara Ai and stared at Chi Feichi with a depressed look, "You actually plan to accompany her to Kyoto for a week, and even made an appointment to visit her in the evening... How considerate~"

As soon as Chi Feichi saw their reactions, he knew that they had misunderstood each other. He put down his phone and turned on the speakerphone, "I'm talking to Tuanzi... Tuanzi, say hello to Yueshui and Xiaoai."

"Hmph!" Tuanzi made a coquettish sound.

Nanatsuki Yueshui was stunned for a moment, and looked at the call page on Chi Feichi's phone in surprise, "Tuan, Tuanzi?"

"Roar!" Tuanzi responded happily.

Huiyuan Ai thought that Chi Feichi might be calling a friend, a woman outside, a child he knew, or a relative, but she never thought that Chi Feichi was calling a giant panda. She was confused for a moment and asked, not quite understanding, "But why did you call Tuanzi?"

Good news: Brother Fei Chi doesn’t seem to be looking for women outside, and there should be no problems with his relationship with Sister Nanatsuki.

Bad news: Brother Fei Chi called a giant panda to chat. This is not something a normal person can do, right? She felt that Brother Fei Chi's mental state was still a little problematic.

Yueshui Nanatsuki also turned his attention to Chi Feichi, and his brain started to analyze rapidly.

Mr. Chi was just talking to Tuanzi on the phone?

Tuanzi is very smart and understands human nature. He has a feature phone that Mr. Chi gave him before and knows how to answer the phone. Mr. Chi can understand animals' speech, so it is possible that he was talking to Tuanzi just now.

Before, when Mr. Chi got home from work, he would occasionally call Tuanzi and contact Feili with his left eye to regularly check on the latest news of his pet. She had also talked to Tuanzi on the phone once before and heard Tuanzi's humming on the phone. The humming on the other end of this call was not much different from Tuanzi's previous voice.

But Mr. Chi just mentioned on the phone, "I'll stay with you in Kyoto for a week," and "I'll pick you up when you finish your work." It doesn't seem like something as simple as just chatting with a pet, does it?

If Mr. Chi didn't have a reasonable explanation, she wouldn't be fooled so easily!

"The Kyoto Zoo wants to borrow a giant panda for its anniversary celebration for a week," Chi Feichi explained. "I called Tuanzi to ask if he was willing."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked at the call number displayed on the phone and confirmed that the number was indeed the mobile phone number of Tuanzi's feature phone. "So you just said that you would stay with the other person in Kyoto for a week, and then go back to Tokyo together after the work is finished..."

"It's about Tuanzi's business trip to Kyoto Zoo," Chi Feichi said, "I plan to send it to Kyoto and stay with it for a week. When the loan period is up, I will send it back to Ueno Zoo."

"Haha~" Tuanzi also responded on the phone.

"So, that's how it is..." Nanatsuki Koshimizu finally believed that she had misunderstood. Her cheeks felt a little hot due to embarrassment. However, she was still a little worried when she thought about what Chi Feichi had just said on the phone. She asked tentatively, "Then... can I go with you?"

"Of course you can," Chi Feichi had no ulterior motives and was very frank. "I was originally planning to tell you about this and invite you to go with me after I called Tuanzi."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu wasn't sure if she should be more generous and say 'I believe you, go ahead', but after a while of struggling, she felt that she still couldn't be generous. Suddenly she remembered something and found an excuse for herself, "Speaking of which, yesterday a client left me a message on the Seven Detective Agency website, saying that he had something he wanted me to investigate, and asked if we could meet in Kyoto. Since you're going to Kyoto too, then we can go together..."

Huiyuan Ai: “…”

Okay, Fei Chi's emotional crisis has been resolved, but... why on earth did Fei Chi call the giant panda and discuss the itinerary with the giant panda in a serious manner? Is this normal?

"So when are you going to leave for Kyoto?" Yueshui Nanatsuki looked at Chi Feichi and thought, "I don't know what the client wants to find me to investigate, and whether he is very anxious, but I think I'd better leave in the next two days and meet him as soon as possible. If I can't solve his problem, he will find someone else for help as soon as possible."

"The anniversary celebration of Kyoto Zoo is about to begin, and they can't wait too long. I'll prepare tomorrow..." Chi Feichi said. Hearing Feichi's reminder, he looked up at a motorcycle coming along the road. While his eyes were locked on the man on the bike, his body also reacted. He leaned over and picked up Huibara Ai, and reached out to push Koshimizu Nanatsuki into the pine forest next to him.

At the same time, the motorcycle drove closer and the man on the motorcycle stretched out his hand hidden under his jacket, tightly gripped the pistol, pointed it in the direction of the three people and pulled the trigger.

"Bang!"

The bullet hit the trunk of a pine tree, making a hole in it.

When the man on the bike saw Chi Feichi and the other two hiding behind the pine tree, he didn't stop but immediately put away his pistol, turned the accelerator handle, and rode away from the spot.

The roar of the motorcycle quickly faded away. Huihara Ai looked at the pine tree not far away that was hit by a bullet. She realized what had happened just a moment ago and her heartbeat began to speed up. "That person..."
