Chapter 18: Please Calculate Our Survival Rate~
Mamiya Mitsuru was hesitating about whether to go or not, but Chi Feichi and Kuroba Kaito took the initiative to suggest going out for a trip.
"Will you be back tonight?" Mamiya Mitsuru asked.
"No, we'll be out for two days this time," Chi Feichi said.
Kuroba Kaito casually made up an excuse, "I plan to go back first, he'll send me to Tokyo, and then take a stroll around..."
Actually, they were planning to go to a gathering held by the Magic Enthusiasts League Chatroom.
In the past few days, Kuroba Kaito and Chi Feichi had exchanged Phone Numbers, added Chat Accounts, and didn't forget to pull Chi Feichi into chatrooms one by one, even pulling Chi Feichi into his chatroom for close Friends.
In Kuroba Kaito's mind, Chi Feichi was his father's successor besides himself, at least in terms of Disguise Technique.
His father might have taught other people too, but he wasn't familiar with others, and didn't even know how many people his father had taught. Anyway, this was the only one he had brought in and recognized.
This time, he was going to participate in the gathering as Kaito Kid. If someone later learned from Mamiya Mitsuru that a High School Student had gone to the gathering, and there was no High School Student among the participants but an extra Kaito Kid, it would be easy to deduce that he, this High School Student, was Kaito Kid.
So he didn't plan to tell Mamiya Mitsuru the truth. He had taught him everything he needed to teach, and he did need to go back to school this time.
"Then what if the Hospital calls?" Mamiya Mitsuru rubbed his temples.
Going out was troublesome, but staying here was also troublesome.
He was anxious, suffering from insomnia...
"Just prevaricate as usual," Chi Feichi said casually.
"Okay, I have experience," Mamiya Mitsuru tried to cheer up. It was a good thing to send one person away. "If you want to go, then go. Do you want me to send you to Tokyo?"
"No need, we plan to do Cross-country Training, we'll just walk there," Chi Feichi said.
Mamiya Mitsuru was too lazy to care anymore, "Call me when you arrive..."
"Don't worry," Kuroba Kaito smiled and raised his hand to pat Chi Feichi's shoulder, "I will take good care of this guy!"
Mamiya Mitsuru really wanted to ask, 'Who exactly is taking care of whom?', but these two were probably equally unreliable. He waved his hand weakly, "Remember to bring Antivenom..."
...
On the road.
Chi Feichi rented a car and planned to drive there. He had a Driver's License, and driving himself would be more convenient.
In the back seat of the car, Kuroba Kaito was busy with Disguise, "Old Man Mamiya's spirit doesn't seem to be very good lately. The weather here is so cold, and Hissashi only knows how to stay still and wrap around your arm. There's no need to bring Antivenom at all. He didn't even think of this... Do you think he feels we can't solve the Mystery and is too disappointed?"
"Maybe," Chi Feichi didn't care what Mamiya Mitsuru thought. However, he had been training all this time, and he also wanted to go out and relax.
Although judging by the Situation, that Death God Elementary School Student would be there, and a case would happen, seeing the main cast and the Snow Scene could also be considered relaxation...
Kuroba Kaito had already Disguised himself as a young fat man, "Are you really not going to Disguise?"
"No need," Chi Feichi said, "I choose to keep my distance from you."
"You're too heartless..." Kuroba Kaito pretended to be resentful.
"You want to use the identity of Phantom Thief Kid to encourage Old Mr. Harui Fuuden's Family, right?" Chi Feichi saw through him, "Phantom Thief Kid is a famous magician, the recognition of this identity is much more important than the recognition of a High School Student, and it will also be a kind of comfort to his Family. And as long as I keep my distance from you, your revealing the identity of Phantom Thief Kid won't implicate me, so there's no need to waste Time and energy on Disguise again. Aren't we also pretending not to know each other in the Chatroom?"
"Pretending not to know each other is to tease them, but you really see everything clearly..." Kuroba Kaito sighed, "Mr. Harui's death is really a pity, but since he has passed away, his 'Ikasama Douji' Chat Account should be used by his Family. They also agreed to come to the Gathering this time, and his Family will probably come. Mr. Harui's Accident was also partly our fault..."
"It's yours," Chi Feichi corrected, "I hadn't joined the Chatroom at that time."
Kuroba Kaito choked, "Don't be so serious, and also, we could Disguise together and go there, as Phantom Thief Kid's Assistant..."
"It's best not to," Chi Feichi said, "When you run, can the Hang Glider carry two people?"
Kuroba Kaito smiled confidently, "Just two people, piece of cake!"
"I still have forty pounds of Weights on me," Chi Feichi reminded, "Classmate Kuroba, please recalculate the probability of an Accident for the two of us, and don't forget to add the probability and level of the Deep Mountain wind these days. In addition, you can also calculate the Survival Rate if an Accident occurs in that kind of environment."
The smile on Kuroba Kaito's face froze, "Okay, then let's pretend we don't know each other and go there..."
"Since you've already Disguised yourself, rent a car and go there yourself later," Chi Feichi said, "I'll take you to a place where you can rent a car."
"Hey, hey, no way," Kuroba Kaito couldn't help but say, "Just say my car broke down on the road, and I flagged down your car, and you're just giving me a ride, wouldn't that work?"
"No, the Trace of the car on the road, the Trace you left in the back seat, Time, and the answers when questioned, all have the potential to become Flaws," Chi Feichi insisted. If Conan wasn't going, he wouldn't be so careful, "After you get out of the car later, I will also clean up the Trace you left behind. Don't act too familiar when you get there. I won't talk to you much. The more you say, the more mistakes you make."
Kuroba Kaito was speechless for a while, wasn't this being overly cautious... It's simply psychopathic!
Then he was found a place by Chi Feichi and kicked out of the car.
...
Deep Mountain, Snowfield, Suspension Bridge, Villa.
The clear and cold Wind blew the Accumulated Snow off the trees. People walked across the Suspension Bridge, stepping onto the Snowfield step by step. It was indeed a very artistic place.
When Doito Takagi, who was Disguised by Kuroba Kaito, opened the door, looking at Chi Feichi, who was wearing simple black Clothes and walking steadily step by step, he also felt it was a very artistic scene.
Only Kuroba Kaito had black lines all over his head, and regretted a little why he didn't Disguise himself to be more handsome. Hmm, maybe next time when stealing Jewels, he could consider performance techniques like Person in a Snowscape Painting...
"Oh, welcome, welcome!" When Chi Feichi arrived at the Entrance, Araki Yoshinori, the owner of the Villa, said with a smile, "Come in and sit down first. I am Araki Yoshinori, the owner of this house, and my name in the Chatroom is 'Taciturn Ventriloquist'. You are..."
"Let's guess first!" The girl with glasses actively suggested, and began to count, "The ones who haven't arrived yet are the Magician's Apprentice, Shadow Master, Chatroom administrator Escape King, Scarecrow, Vanished Pani, there are still five people left, it's really hard to guess..."
A group of people chatted as they entered the Entrance Hall.
"I think it's very simple," another more mature woman said with a smile, "The Magician's Apprentice is definitely a girl, and Vanished Pani should also be a girl. As the Chatroom administrator, everyone can guess a little about Escape King's style, and I feel he won't be Escape King. That leaves Shadow Master and Scarecrow..."
"You are Scarecrow, right?" The girl with glasses asked expectantly.
Before, in the Chatroom, Shadow Master said a lot of strange things, and she didn't want a handsome guy to turn out to be that neurotic guy.
"I also think he is Scarecrow. Although Scarecrow only recently joined the Chatroom, he usually doesn't talk much. This characteristic is too obvious. I guessed early on that he should be a relatively cool person," Araki Yoshinori led a group of people to sit down, turned his head and asked Chi Feichi with a smile, "Did we guess right?"
Chi Feichi nodded, "I am indeed Scarecrow, and my real name is Chi Feichi."
"I am Red Herring," the fat man Disguised by Kuroba Kaito smiled amiably, "My name is Doito Takagi. I originally wanted to let you guess who we are, but you haven't been in the Chatroom for long, so it seems a bit too difficult to let you guess."
"I am Phantom," the girl with glasses pointed to herself and smiled, "My name is Kuroda Naoko, and this is Tanaka Kikue, she is Ikasama Douji. Unexpectedly, she is a girl, right? We were also very surprised when we found out!"
Soon after, 'Vanished Pani' also arrived. Unlike what others guessed, he was a real man.
After waiting for a while, Kuroba Kaito ran to the second floor to see the Snow Scene. Chi Feichi sat aside and listened to a group of people chatting.
After that, 'Magician's Apprentice' Suzuki Sonoko arrived, and also brought Mori Kogoro, Mouri Ran, and Conan trio.
Chi Feichi was not in a hurry to join in the fun. He listened to other people's Self-introduction in the Entrance Hall, finished the Tea in his Cup, and then got up and walked over.
"That... Doito..." Suzuki Sonoko was a little expectant, "Ah, that is 'Red Herring', has he not arrived yet?"
"He's already here, on the second floor," Tanaka Kikue said.
Kuroda Naoko heard the movement and turned her head back, and smiled, "Ah, here he comes!"
Suzuki Sonoko looked forward expectantly, and kept watching the round 'Doito Takagi' come down, her face instantly stiffened.
"You are the Magician's Apprentice, right?" Kuroba Kaito greeted with a smile, "I am Doito Takagi!"
"No way..."
Suzuki Sonoko muttered to herself, the handsome guy in her imagination... gone!
"I knew you were a girl, great!" Kuroba Kaito was still smiling, with a hint of excitement.
Suzuki Sonoko could only force a smile.
"Oh, right, Scarecrow is also here," Kuroda Naoko turned her head and saw Chi Feichi coming out, and joked with a smile, "Before, we all thought he was a very serious middle-aged uncle, but it was completely unexpected!"
Ding~
Suzuki Sonoko's eyes lit up.
Huh?
Conan's pupils shrank.
Although not everyone wearing black Clothes needs to be noticed, that indifferent expression and emotionless eyes, and that very unusual calm temperament...
Could it be...
Chi Feichi noticed Conan's vigilant gaze and instantly pale face, "..."
Haibara Ai, Numabuchi Kiichiro, and now Conan, that's already three...
Among those violent groups, there are also many people who wear all black and have more ferocious eyes than him, right?
Black Clothes are not exclusively contracted by the liquor organization, why do these people like to think of him as a liquor organization employee?
And their reactions are all so big, is it poisonous!
Conan's scalp went numb from that indifferent glance, and a stiff smile appeared on his face.
Chi Feichi was speechless and withdrew his gaze, and said to Suzuki Sonoko, "Hello, my name is Chi Feichi."
