Chapter 312 The Joy of Deduction is Deprived…
The Housekeeper picked up the Water Bottle and reminded before leaving, "I have already prepared the Hot Water, please move to the Tea Room later."
"Well then, I'll take this time to take a bath, I'll take my leave for now." Morio Yakura greeted the group and also left.
Hassashi had already climbed to Chi Feichei's feet. When Chi Feichei squatted down, it climbed up Chi Feichei's hand and said mysteriously, "By the way, Master, I heard a secret from them. This Grandmaster seems to be counterfeiting with that Morio Yakura, selling Imitation tea sets as genuine ones. White Snake and the others heard them arguing. The Grandmaster doesn't want to do it anymore, but Yakura seems unwilling to stop."
Chi Feichei nodded slightly, indicating that he heard it.
In this Incident, the one who died should be the Grandmaster. The Demon Legend is making its presence felt in front of Conan, so the death method must be the same as in the Demon Legend, hanging.
As for whether the Culprit is Yakura, he doesn't remember. Judging from the current Situation, Ryoichi Aonogi also has opinions about his Old Dad, but Morio Yakura's Motive is hidden so deeply, it is still more likely that Yakura is the perpetrator.
This is the Law of the Light Demon.
Next, Mori Kogoro and his Guests had nothing else to do.
Conan secretly ran out at some point, and Mouri Ran went to look for Conan as usual.
Mori Kogoro just sat under the eaves in a daze.
Chi Feichei sat on the other side, looking down at his Mobile Phone to browse News Report, when he suddenly received a Phone Call from Odagiri Toshiya.
"Toshiya?"
"Kazuki and the others are coming back, I'm going to pick them up. Do you want to come with me?"
"I'm in Shizuoka."
"Huh? What are you doing in Shizuoka?"
"Attending a Tea Ceremony Gathering. How are their situations?"
"According to Midorikawa, they didn't eat much yesterday. The two of them only had Breakfast and a Bread. Fortunately, Kurara found a Convenience Store to do a Part-time Job today, so they didn't go Hungry and made it to the Night."
"How is their Relationship?"
"I haven't seen them yet, but when Kazuki called me, he was very protective of Midorikawa. I think their Emotion should be good."
"I should have booked the tickets for Tomorrow. Without experiencing much setbacks, I'm worried that they will be too awkward playing the roles of siblings relying on each other."
"Let's not overdo it. If it spreads out in the future, our Company will be said to be making things difficult for artists..."
"Okay, when they come back, give them the Script, and give them a week to decide for themselves Whether or Not they want to experience Life together."
"Hey, hey..."
"That's it, tell them, it's for winning the Acting Award."
"You're aiming for an Award?"
"You didn't think I really gave up on the Movie side, did you?"
"Okay, okay, I'll tell them. By the Way, the first episode of the TV Program is already halfway through filming. I plan to promote it and then start broadcasting. Also, Kuraki's new Song 'Love, Day After Tomorrow' has been recorded and is also waiting for Promotion. The Company doesn't have much Funds left, but I plan to go to the Bank Loan after the program is broadcast and gets a good response."
"Okay, you decide for yourself."
"Speaking of which, you can still write Songs, can you write two for me? I'm also going to perform On Stage, or those Songs you gave to Kuraki, I..."
"Goodbye."
Chi Feichei hung up the Phone Call directly.
It seems that Odagiri Toshiya intends to spend more Money on Promotion. Since he knows to get a Loan, it seems he also understands some of the Company's Routine operations. Getting a Loan now is indeed not as good as going after the market value increases, you can borrow more...
On the side, Conan had been brought back by Mouri Ran, and couldn't help but look at Chi Feichei again and again.
This Fellow is really busy...
Mouri Ran did not rashly step forward to disturb him, and chatted in a low voice with Mori Kogoro and Morio Yakura, who had finished taking a bath.
Chi Feichei hung up the Phone Call and called Da Shan Mi again to Asked about the Movie Theater he bought.
Currently, the Movie Theater has been redecorated and is planning to open soon. Chi Feichei declined to attend the opening Ceremony.
If the featured Movie Theater develops well, when new Movies are released, it can Help with Promotion.
The Sun gradually slanted to the west, and the setting Sun dyed the surface of the Pond Water red.
Mouri Ran inadvertently saw it, "The Pond has turned red at some point."
Mori Kogoro reached out and put his Hand on his Forehead, squinting his eyes to look out, "It's so dazzling, I can't even Look at it."
Chi Feichei put away his Mobile Phone and Turn Head to Look. It was really quite dazzling.
"It's 4 o'clock," Ryoichi Aonogi raised his Wrist and Look at his Watch, explaining, "Every Day at this Time, the Sunlight will present a state of diffuse reflection."
"It's really hot..." Miss Mimura, who didn't know where she had gone before, went Upstairs shaking a fan, "Mrs. Hanaqi, is there any Beverage?"
"Miss Mimura," the Housekeeper asked dissatisfied, "May I ask where you went?"
"What, is that any of your business?" Miss Mimura sat down aside, not taking it seriously.
"Miss Mimura, that's too rude, isn't it?" Morio Yakura stepped forward and said, "The Grandmaster invited us here, it's an honor!"
"Thinking too highly of yourself?" Miss Mimura shook her fan on her own.
"This is a Tea Ceremony Gathering personally hosted by the Grandmaster," Morio Yakura raised his voice, complaining dissatisfied, "You actually left halfway, it's too much!"
"Alright, alright," Mori Kogoro hurriedly stepped forward to mediate, "Didn't the Grandmaster Say that this was his last pot of Tea?"
"That's right!" Miss Mimura Turn Around and said to Morio Yakura, "In your heart, you probably can't wait for the Grandmaster to retire early, and you still Say such nice Words!"
Morio Yakura looked angry and roared, "What do you mean by that! Miss Mimura, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, just Say it directly, don't be like this!"
Everyone else was alarmed and gathered around the two of them. Chi Feichei also Turn Head to Look at the Farce in the Room.
Mori Kogoro hurriedly stepped forward to stop Morio Yakura, "Calm down!"
"Yes, yes," Miss Mimura Get Up, shook her fan and walked towards the Terrace, saying casually, "Consider it my fault, okay? Really, the Color of this Pond Water makes me feel hot just by looking at it..."
As she spoke, she fixed her eyes and let out a scream of fright, retreating and falling to the ground.
Chi Feichei Turn Head to Look at the Pond. From this angle, he could vaguely see the Ventilation Window on the Rooftop of the Tea Room in the middle of the Pond.
Behind the Window, an Old Man with a Rope around his Neck was hanging from the Roof Beam.
A group of people Turn Head to See and rushed to the Tea Room.
A pool of Blood flowed out from the Entrance of the Tea Room, pulling a Blood line that extended into the Inside the Room.
Ryoichi Aonogi tried to open the Door, but found that it was already Locked from the Inside. The Door of the Tea Preparation Room Behind the Room was also Locked.
Mori Kogoro directly kicked the Door open, bent down and drilled into the low Behind the Door, and stepped forward to check the Pulse.
That Grandmaster didn't even have the Opportunity for the last pot of Tea, and he was completely Cold...
"The Legend has come true!" The Housekeeper Mrs. Hanaqi exclaimed in panic, "The Grandmaster was Kill by the Demon in the Pond just like in the Legend!"
The Inside the Room suddenly burst into wails.
"Ah, injustice..."
Chi Feichei stood Outside the Room and suddenly heard a sigh. He walked to the Guardrail.
Under the Pond Water, White Snake looked up and complained, "It was that fat Man in Kimono who came from Downstream of the Bridge and Kill the Human. We all saw it! By the Way, he also found a String, like this..."
As it spoke, it twisted into a circle and put its Head in.
"Like this..."
Then tightened the circle.
"Pull one end of the Rope towards that Water Wheel."
As it spoke, its Tail straightened towards the Direction of the Water Wheel.
"Then the Water Wheel pulls, and like this..."
"By the Way, at the Door there, he also installed Thumbtacks and used a Scroll to prop it up, just like this..."
Chi Feichei silently watched this White Snake use itself as a Rope, twisting out all kinds of weird movements.
Very detailed, you can understand it at a Glance.
However, after Snakes gain Spirituality, do they all prefer to twist themselves for fun?
And it's saying it so detailed, completely depriving him of the Joy of Deduction!
Conan Look here and there in the Room, went Outside the Door, saw Chi Feichei facing away from the Tea Room, walked forward, looked up, and found that Chi Feichei was looking down at the water surface with a terribly Cold Face. He hesitated for a moment, "Brother Chi..."
As soon as White Snake saw someone else coming, it immediately disappeared.
"What's the Matter?" Chi Feichei withdrew his Line of Sight.
"You were on that Terrace Before, right?" Conan Asked, "Did you notice any suspicious Man coming from the Bridge to the Tea Room side?"
"No." Chi Feichei replied.
"Really?" Conan pressed, "You were looking at your Mobile Phone all the time Before, wouldn't you have not noticed it here?"
"No," Chi Feichei affirmed, "If someone came from the Bridge, the corner of my Line of Sight would have swept over them. Even if the other party wore Clothes that were similar in Color to the Bridge, the Shadow under the Sun is black, I would always notice it."
Conan nodded thoughtfully, looked at the Water Wheel turning over there, and reminded Chi Feichei by the way, "I found traces of Thumbtacks nailed on the Door, this is probably..."
"Not an Accident. The Culprit first came from Downstream of the Pond, then entered the Door to attack the Grandmaster, and strangled the Grandmaster to death. Because the Entrance here is not facing the Terrace over there, there is no need to worry about being discovered by me. Afterwards, he tied a Rope around the Grandmaster's Neck, tied a Knot that would become tighter and tighter when pulled, and then..." Chi Feichei explained the entire Rope arrangement, "Finally, one end was lowered into the Pond and tied to the Water Wheel over there. At the same Time, a simple locking device was made from Thumbtacks and Rubber Band Inside the Door, and a Scroll was used to prop up the Door. Then the Grandmaster was placed Outside the Door. When the Water Wheel turned, it pulled the Rope and pulled the Grandmaster Inside the Room. The legs knocked off the Scroll, and the Door also fell down. The Lock was Locked by the Rubber Band, and the Grandmaster was also hanged. Finally, the Rope was rolled by the Water Wheel, the Knot was pulled closer, and the Grandmaster was hanged under the Roof Beam. The weak point previously cut on the Rope with a Knife broke, and the excess Rope was recovered by the Water Wheel."
Since he was deprived of the Joy of Deduction, then he would deprive Conan of the Joy of Deduction.
Never mind Whether or Not this is harming others without benefiting oneself, anyway, seeing Conan as depressed as him, or even more depressed than him, made him happy.
Being happy Oneself is the most important thing.
Conan looked at Chi Feichei dumbfounded.
He just poked his Head and Look Inside the Room, how did this Fellow make these Deductions?
The key is, it completely coincides with his train of thought. After he discovered the Thumbtack marks on the Door and the turning Water Wheel, he also guessed this way.
"That..."
"The Culprit is Mr. Yakura," Chi Feichei looked at the Pond Water and continued in a low voice, "To come from Downstream of the Pond and swim back, his Clothes must be soaked. Mrs. Hanaqi and Mr. Ryoichi, who have not changed their Clothes and are not wet, can be excluded. As for Miss Mimura, who came back after Going Out, although her Kimono is messy and she is covered in sweat, she left the Residence. If she secretly came back, it would trigger the Security Alarm Outside the Residence, and that bit of sweat did not completely wet her Clothes. There is a loose String on the lower right hem of her Kimono, so she did not change into the same Kimono..."
Conan: "..."
Wasn't this Fellow staring at his Mobile Phone the whole Time? How did he even notice the loose thread on someone else's Kimono hem?
