Chapter 25 - Chapter 25: Everyone is Abnormal Except Chi Feichi

Snakes are definitely good at infiltrating.

The secret doors in the castle were not tightly sealed, and there must be ventilation holes in the secret passageways.

People couldn't get into those places, but snakes could easily crawl in.

Feichi had almost explored all the secret passageways and traps, and some places were probably not even clear to Mamiya Masuyo.

After listening, Chi Feichi instructed Feichi, "You go to the restaurant first. When you see Mamiya Masuyo enter the restaurant, come back immediately. I will wait for you at the secret door of the second room on the second floor... By the way, don't provoke that little girl you said was silly and dull in the future. If a bottle of chemical potion goes down, you will be lucky if you can die and leave a skeleton."

Feichi immediately raised his body and stared at Chi Feichi with a dull look.

So terrifying? Lying to people... No, lying to snakes?

Chi Feichi didn't say much irrelevant words, opened the bathroom door, "Action."

In the first floor restaurant, the old and the young sat at the table.

"Wow! So sumptuous!"

Genta couldn't take his eyes off the food.

A maid entered the door and whispered to Mamiya Mitsuru, "Master Mitsuru, we can't find Mr. Chi anywhere."

"You guys look again," Mamiya Mitsuru nodded with a wooden face and looked at Professor Agasa. "Then let's eat first. Let the servants find Mr. Chi and the others."

"Ah?" Professor Agasa hesitated. "But..."

"It's okay, he probably went to find that little boy who was hiding. He will bring the child to eat when he finds him." Mamiya Mitsuru, accustomed to it, made up a 'daily itinerary' for Chi Feichi.

Haibara Ai was startled, thinking that Chi Feichi was seen when he went to find Conan, and quietly observed Mamiya Mitsuru's expression: "..."

This uncle also has an expressionless indifferent face...

Mamiya Mitsuru's expression did not fluctuate at all.

Sure enough, making up itineraries for Chi Feichi or something, after getting familiar with it, it is completely easy to handle.

He is a bit numb. If this scientist also can't find the treasure, he should leave...

No, can't give up!

But it's so hard to persist...

On the side, Mamiya Masuyo, sitting in a wheelchair, felt bad. Although she knocked out and locked up that brat with glasses who entered the secret door, Chi Feichi lived in the castle for a period of time, and there was no guarantee that he would not find anything.

No way! She has to go and see!

"Send the food to my room, I want to go to my room to eat."

"Grandmother?" Mamiya Takahito was somewhat surprised.

"Humph, what scientist friend? I think he wants to find a smart person to solve the mystery. He lives here only for the castle treasure," Mamiya Masuyo pushed the wheelchair and turned away. "Tell me when my daughter comes back. I want to have a good talk with her. How could she be deceived by this kind of guy!"

Mamiya Takahito was somewhat embarrassed, but looking up at Mamiya Mitsuru who didn't seem angry, he didn't say much.

"Help Grand Madam send the food over." Mamiya Mitsuru just flatly instructed the maid.

Haibara Ai has been quietly observing this family. The old lady sometimes forgets the fact that her daughter has passed away, and her grandson just asks a question after seeing his grandmother怼 step-father, and Mamiya Mitsuru is even more bizarre. His face is frighteningly haggard, as if he cares about nothing but the castle treasure. She leaned close to Professor Agasa and whispered, "Professor..."

"Hmm?" Professor Agasa also lowered his voice cooperatively. "What's wrong?"

"Find a chance to call the police secretly later. Edogawa is probably in trouble. Chi Feichi went to find him," Haibara Ai's voice was very low. "Be alert, don't trust this family."

Even Mamiya Takahito was excluded by Haibara Ai.

Not that she didn't trust Chi Feichi, but she suddenly felt that Mamiya Takahito also seemed to be not normal...

"Ah?" Professor Agasa was surprised.

"Don't you think this family is abnormal?" Haibara Ai said. "Compared to them, Chi Feichi seems to be the only normal person."

Professor Agasa recalled the experience after entering the castle, and looked at the two people at the dining table, nodding. I don't know if it is a psychological reason, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere here revealed a strange atmosphere, and could only silently sympathize with Chi Feichi.

It's not easy. It was not easy to get out of a place like Aoyama Fourth Hospital, and the temporary family he stayed with was like this...

"Let's eat first." Mamiya Mitsuru turned to greet the group. If he knew the thoughts of Haibara Ai and Professor Agasa, he would probably jump up from his chair excitedly.

He is the only normal person in this family, okay!

However...

In the atmosphere of the three children eating happily, Mamiya Mitsuru talked about the fire in the castle. That complex look of distraction, entanglement, and haggardness from time to time, and Mamiya Takahito's action of eating silently, all fell into Professor Agasa's eyes, making Professor Agasa more and more certain that his feeling was correct.

Before Mamiya Masuyo returned to her room, Chi Feichi and Feichi had already entered the secret passageway.

Feichi tracked the smell of fresh blood left by Conan along the way, wrapped around Chi Feichi's neck, and voiced directions.

Chi Feichi didn't use any light source like a flashlight, only listened to Feichi's words, walked leisurely in the secret passageway, and his steps were so light that they were almost inaudible.

At the same time, Mamiya Masuyo returned to her room and always felt uneasy. She opened the secret door and also entered the secret passageway, checking several secret passageway entrances.

It's just a pity that Chi Feichi has a habit of reducing and cleaning up his traces when he acts. The traces of entry and exit are not something she can find.

After looking around, Mamiya Masuyo didn't find anything unusual, and went to the dark room where Conan was locked up.

In the dark and stuffy space, Conan had woken up, but was tied up firmly with a rope. Hearing the sound of the mechanism being opened, he could only fall on the ground and move a direction, looking towards the place where the sound came from.

The door opened, and the harsh light from the flashlight shot directly at him, causing him to close his eyes.

Mamiya Masuyo shone the flashlight around the dark room and then backed out.

"Hey...!" Conan shouted, but the only response was the sound of the mechanism of the door closing in the dark, frowning in thought.

He thought the other party was afraid of accidents and couldn't wait to rush over to kill him to silence him, but now it seems that the other party still prefers him to 'die naturally'.

And the other party's action just now was like confirming whether he was still there or looking for someone...

Someone came to find him!

And maybe they have already entered inside!

Professor Agasa? Haibara? Or those three children... No, the most likely one is...

Behind him, there was another slight sound of the mechanism.

How could it be from behind? There are still mechanisms behind?

Conan was puzzled, silently moved, moved, and moved a direction again.

In the darkness, Conan was as prominent as a bright light bulb in Feichi's heat eye detection, and even his movements could be seen clearly. "Two steps left, six steps forward, you can touch that brat's head by squatting down. That brat fell on the ground and moved to face our side."

Conan's eyes were not infrared detectors. He only heard the mechanism door sound once in the dark, and then it became quiet... No, if he listened carefully, there seemed to be a little faint sound.

Just that the sound was too light for him to distinguish what the situation was.

About five or six seconds later, a hand pressed on his head, and Chi Feichi's consistent calm voice also sounded above his head.

"Conan, are you awake?"

"Yeah..." Conan breathed a sigh of relief and whispered. "That person came here just now and has left. This is a closed dark room."

After listening, Chi Feichi didn't understand. "So...?"

Conan was stunned for a moment. With Chi Feichi's brain, he should understand what he meant. He explained actively, "It doesn't matter if you turn on the flashlight now. As long as she doesn't come in, she shouldn't find it. I'm tied up..."

To help him untie, you must be able to see it, right?

Chi Feichi: "Flashlight? I didn't bring it."

Conan choked. Coming to the tunnel without bringing a light source...

Wait! In other words, Chi Feichi came here all the way in the dark?

"On my watch..."

'There is a small flashlight for lighting, untie me first' these words haven't been spoken yet, Conan felt Chi Feichi's hand accurately touch the rope on his wrist: "..."

"What's wrong with your watch?" Chi Feichi asked.

"No, nothing..." Conan looked at the darkness in front of him and suspected that the bright light from Mamiya Masuyo's flashlight just now had caused something wrong with his eyes.

Under the circumstance that Conan couldn't hear, Feichi continued to tell Chi Feichi the situation. "Dead knot, tied relatively tight, probably can't be untied, use a knife..."

"Don't move randomly." Chi Feichi reminded, took out the spring knife from his pocket, and opened it.

While Conan was confused, he felt a coolness between his wrists tied back, and then the sense of restraint disappeared. Realizing that Chi Feichi was cutting the rope with a knife, his scalp tingled instantly and he dared not move.

Feichi: "There is another one at the position about 20 centimeters left of Master's left hand... Stop, the rope is broken, another cut will stab the brat's back. Okay, the last one is behind the brat's ankle..."

Conan felt another rope broken. "The rest I can..."

Chi Feichi has cut the last rope tied with four knots according to Feichi's instructions. "What?"

"No..." Conan sat up, while tangling, pulled the rope that was looped three times inside and three times outside on his body, still couldn't help asking. "That... Brother Chi, am I blind?"

Chi Feichi was silent for a moment. "What do you think?"

Conan's heart sank, and then suddenly reacted that he seemed to have made a fool of himself. Untie the rope, and check it himself, won't it be fine?

Turned on the flashlight on his watch and found that he could see. Silenced for two seconds, turned to look at Chi Feichi.

"How did you come here in the dark?"

"Just came here in the dark..." Chi Feichi paused, picked up Conan, quickly entered the secret door he came through before, and closed the mechanism.

Conan's watch was still illuminating the closed door gap. Suddenly he found that a light strip on the opposite side of the dark room was gradually expanding. He couldn't help turning to look at Chi Feichi.

Although he didn't see clearly who opened the door on the opposite side, the only person who would run over was probably the person who replaced Mamiya Masuyo to live here...

If not for Chi Feichi's quick reaction, they would have been trapped inside.

But this reaction was too fast, right?

Calculating the time to pick him up, go to the secret door, and add the time for the secret door to close, it was almost when the other party arrived in front of the secret door, Chi Feichi discovered it?
