Chapter 691 Not Only Possible to Be Sold...
Chi Feichei pulled open the Car Door and got out of the Car. Without waiting for Ubu Saika to speak, he closed the Car Door and walked towards the Vending Machine in the Rear. "Good Smell. She determined that someone was Tracking by the Instant Noodles scent on Rum's People All, but you've also seen the Data. She's just an ordinary Middle School student who can't even use a Gun..."
"Uh-huh," Gin agreed, "Her studies aren't that good either."
Hearing Gin mention 'studies,' Chi Feichei didn't find it surprising.
The Organization's requirements were much higher than Violent Gangs. Taking Core Members as an example, if you weren't proficient in three languages and didn't understand some obscure languages, you couldn't survive. People like Yingqu Yan Nan and Saki Midorikawa had actually learned English, French, or English, Russian Language. Even if they weren't very proficient, simple Communication was definitely not a Problem.
Mastering Language was just the Foundation. You had to have decent Ability yourself, and you had to go through Discovery, Test, and Assessment to have the Possibility of joining the Core.
Of course, the requirements for Outer Members were lower. As long as they were useful, the Organization wouldn't be stingy about Development. Some Outer Members were considered full-time, while others were at most temporary workers, and they could lose their lives if they weren't careful.
In The Boss's eyes, eliminating Core Members might require some Consideration, but eliminating a few Outer Members was really up to them.
Gin considered for a moment, and his voice was deep and cold, "You make an Arrangement to send her to the Training Base!"
Chi Feichei threw a Coin into the Vending Machine and pressed the Button for Cigarette. "I'll tell her."
That 'Training Base' wasn't referring to his or other Member's secret small Base, but a Training place set up by the Organization for some People All worth cultivating. Every once in a while, it would be transferred according to the Situation.
Numabuchi Kiichiro had stayed in that kind of Training Base.
"Her Age is an Advantage, and she also has the Value of being cultivated. As long as there are no fatal Weaknesses, she might be used in a few years," Gin paused and reminded, "Raki, your Request is too high. There aren't many People All who can reach the level of Wayne Walkerly and Midorikawa as soon as they are discovered."
He had to admit that he had Suspicion.
Undercover Agent wouldn't randomly drag People All into the water, and Raki's Point was very suspicious.
But thinking about when Raki was in Boston, without restraints, as the highest commander, dozens of People All were blown up if he said so, he felt that he was overthinking.
Which Undercover Agent could do such outrageous things?
The pride of those Undercover Agent themselves as the 'protector' side and the Brainwashing of those Intelligence Agency, even if they caught People All from their Organization, it would be difficult to kill them, let alone a Personality like Raki who was so reckless that he had to guard against him, completely different from those People All.
Moreover, this Fellow Raki didn't hesitate to drag Yingqu Yan Nan and Saki Midorikawa into the water, and it was all Raki himself who took the initiative. It was probably just that his Taste and Request were too high.
Thinking back to when they 'fished' together, they only took a fancy to Yingqu Yan Nan, and threw all the other People All to him. It was estimated that he would soon forget about those People All. It was understandable that he didn't like Ubu Saika.
Okay, the Key Point was that Crazy also didn't meet the recruitment Standard of the Intelligence Agency, especially this kind of Crazy with aggressive tendencies...
Chi Feichei didn't know Gin's Teasing in his Heart. He added, "I Don't Know who her Biological Father is."
He didn't Know who Ubu Saika's Father was, whether he would be a Member of the Intelligence Agency, or whether he would bring Troublesome to the Organization...
Even if someone was suspicious, he could use this Reason to explain, and it was very reasonable.
Because of this Reason, he would insist on not Pay Attention To Ubu Saika. Otherwise, even if Ubu Saika hadn't shown off her cleverness and been noticed when Gin Call came, he would have considered agreeing to Ubu Saika joining.
After All, even if he didn't say it, the Two People present today might also tell Gin, and then he might be suspected.
Compared to being suspected of lurking, dragging Ubu Saika into the water was not a Big Deal. There would be plenty of Opportunities to 'arrange' People All later.
Gin then Realized this Point, "Her Biological Father is Kurahashi Kenichi. The specific Situation will be discussed when you return to Tokyo."
"Uh-huh."
Chi Feichei hung up the Phone Call, bent down and picked up the Cigarette at the Exit of the Vending Machine.
Kurahashi Kenichi, one of the eight Builders that the Organization planned to Clean Up...
It seemed that his previous Guess was Correct. Sure enough, someone in the Organization planned to do Other Things using this Action.
This time, it was aimed at Intelligence Personnel. The Investigation of Ubu Saika was also arranged by Rum. Rum was involved a bit too much. Combining these Situations, the inside story was mostly planned by Rum, or actively instructed by That Boss.
Since he and Gin had both participated in the Plan, they Should have a share in the Action.
In short, it was a Good Thing that he could participate in it. At that Time, he could Check Amuro Toru's Situation and adapt to the changing Situation...
Thinking, Chi Feichei Turn Around and returned to the Front of Car. After putting away the Cigarette and getting into the Car, he entered Yingqu Yan Nan's Email Address in the Mobile Phone Email, raised his Mobile Phone and let Ubu Saika see clearly, "Go to Tokyo, and then contact this Email. Someone will pick you up."
Before, he didn't have much Disgust for Ubu Saika. Even though Ubu Saika kept talking non-stop, she was still quite sensible.
Probably Because the Original Consciousness and even he lacked Companionship from Parents, he had a bit of a Feeling of sympathy for Ubu Saika, so he insisted on ignoring Ubu Saika's Request to join.
He didn't Pay Attention To her Just because he felt there was nothing to talk about with a Chuunibyou Little Girl.
But Just Now, Ubu Saika was self-righteous and Intentionally spoke out when he was making a Phone Call to attract Gin's attention. It could also be considered that she had set him up, and wiped out the little Good Impression in his Heart.
Ubu Saika took out her Mobile Phone and recorded the Email Address. She asked curiously, "Is this your Email Address?"
"No."
Seeing that Ubu Saika had recorded the Email, Chi Feichei got out of the Car directly and closed the Car Door. "Send her back."
Originally, even if he had to drag Ubu Saika into the water, after the Organization no longer paid attention to Ubu Saika, he could pretend to be annoyed by Ubu Saika and 'arrange' People All to get rid of her. He might get Injured, but it was always better than staying in the Organization.
He could see that Ubu Saika herself had no criminal tendencies and had not experienced many Things. The biggest Situation was probably a Group of People fighting with weapons.
This kind of Person who joins the Organization out of rebellion, Curiosity, or thinking it's cool, even if they perform well, one day after discovering their conscience, sooner or later Problems will arise, and the Outcome will be Clean Up.
Moreover, Ubu Saika might not be able to withstand the Training at the Training Ground.
If, as Gin said, there was a fatal Weakness on her body, or she was useless, she would most likely be sent to the Laboratory to be an Experiment Subject for Drug Research.
Of course, it was also Possible that Ubu Saika would be influenced by the Organization and be very Suitable for the Environment of the Organization.
The last Opportunity to regret it, he had already given to Ubu Saika.
If this Girl considered that going to Tokyo rashly might result in being sold, and didn't go, then it would be fine.
But if Ubu Saika ran to Tokyo, he wouldn't care.
Now this Matter was caused by Gin and Ubu Saika themselves, and it couldn't be blamed on him.
When the Time comes, throwing her to the Training Ground, with Ubu Saika's Age, as long as she doesn't openly Betrayal or Run Away, when the Organization is finished, she will Probably still be in Training. It will be like giving this Child a little Knowledge and tempering, letting this Child Know that don't make random Choice when your Brain is hot for a while, not only may you be sold, but you may also fall into a quagmire.
"Hey..."
In the Car, Ubu Saika saw Chi Feichei get out of the Car. Just as she was about to speak, the Car had already driven away from the Original Place.
The Man in Sunglasses sitting next to her put away the Pistol that had been used to hold Ubu Saika hostage. Considering that she was now considered one of their own, he couldn't help but Say, "The Organization is not Suitable for Little Girl like you!"
Ubu Saika refused to accept, "Are you looking down on me?"
"Don't be talkative." The Man in Sunglasses driving in the front seat reminded in a cold voice.
The Man in the Back Seat immediately stopped talking. He lit a Cigarette himself. Although they were Companions, the Connection between the guy driving and Gin was much more than his. He really Shouldn't say more, so as not to be misunderstood that he had Opinion on the Organization.
Seeing that neither of the Two People were speaking, Ubu Saika sulked and remained Silence for a while. "Hey, can you give me Raki's Contact Information? You Should have it, right?"
The Man in the Back Seat directly refused, "Cannot."
"Why?" Ubu Saika said, "What's wrong with giving it to me?"
"Will die!" The Man in the front seat took over the Words in a cold voice, "I'm serious, I'm not joking with you. People All who destroy the Rules Will die."
Ubu Saika was frightened by the Man's Attitude. Calmly thinking about tonight's Experience, she also felt that the Organization these People All stayed in really dared to Murder. She was a little guilty and muttered in a low voice, "Forget it if you don't give it..."
...
The next Day, Early Morning.
Kumamoto Castle Park.
Chi Feichei brought the five Child of the Junior Detective League to the Lawn and started pre-match Training.
The Training content was not long-distance running or sparring simulations, but running back and forth on the sandy Ground. The distance was very short, but the Request was to stand firm in an accurate Method when stopping suddenly.
It was very simple and also boring, but mastering the Skill of sprinting and stopping suddenly and knowing how to use it could not only improve Ability, but also avoid Ankle Injuries during the Competition.
Except for Mori Kogoro, who was missing, Mouri Ran, Suzuki Sonoko, and Hissashi were all present.
Hissashi was also quite interested in moving back and forth on the Lawn on the other side, imitating the appearance of the five Kids.
Looking at the Group of People full of Vitality, Chi Feichei really had a Feeling that he was living in two Worlds last night and today.
The Light of justice of These People All could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Sun.
Before Training even started, Mabuchi Kyohei, who was resting today, also came over and watched from Aside.
Genta followed and ran quickly to the left, braked, and then ran quickly to the other side, braked. After several consecutive trips, it was not only tiring, but also consumed patience, but with Chi Feichei's cold Face correcting their Action Aside...
He didn't dare to be lazy.
After running back and forth for nearly an Hour, Chi Feichei called for Rest.
After Genta moved his Foot to the Lawn, he sat down on the Lawn with his butt. After resting for a while, he still didn't want to move. "So tired, is this kind of Training really useful?"
"Of course it's useful," Mabuchi Kyohei explained very actively, and by the way, popularized, "Tennis Competition Ballpark are divided into Grass Court, Hard Court, Clay Court, and Carpet Court."
"The characteristic of Grass Court is that the friction force when the Ball lands is small, and the rebound Speed is fast, so it is biased towards Training players' Reaction Speed, Agility, running Speed and Skill."
"Hard Court is a Ballpark paved with Cement and asphalt. The surface is flat and has high hardness. The Ball bounces regularly, but the rebound Speed is very fast, the Strength is very strong, and it is also very stiff. It is easy to get Injured if you are not careful. You must pay more attention to Safety."
"And Clay Court, to be precise, Should be called 'soft Ballpark'. Clay and sandy Ground are included in it. The characteristic is that the friction force between the Ball and the Ground when it lands is large, and the rebound Speed is slow, but when players are running, their Feet will slide. Sudden stops and quick returns are more likely to cause Ankle sprains or direct falls. Training is also more inclined to Physical Fitness, running Ability, and movement Ability. It also tests Will. The winner is often not a Burst player with fierce playing style, but a Person with strong Physical Fitness endurance and who can calm down and win slowly."
"As for Carpet Court, it is to lay a plastic layer Indoors. Transportation is more convenient and maintenance is more money-saving, but we won't be in contact with it this time, so I won't say more."
"The Ballpark for this Competition is Clay Court, but your Junior Group is Short Net, which means the Ballpark is not as big as a Standard Ballpark. In a Competition, the Amount of Exercise and running distance will not be too large. What you need to pay attention to is the running Skill of sudden stops and quick returns."
After Saying, Mabuchi Kyohei also defended his Coach, "Coach Tota specially arranged this kind of Training for this Competition!"
Chi Feichei summarized, "Frankly speaking, it's just cramming at the last minute to increase your Probability of winning a A Bit."
Junior Detective League Five People All: "..."
Then can they frankly Say that Chi Feichei's Words are really quite a Blow to People All...
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 692: I'm Not Good at Playing Training Matches
"Then..."
Mitsuhiko propped up his knees and stood up straight, saying firmly, "Let's continue the Training! Let's increase the small Probability of winning into a greater Probability of winning!"
"Ah..." Genta said in despair, "Do we still have to continue?"
Mouri Ran gave a dry laugh. Just as she was about to say something for the Children, Chi Feichei Already spoke One Step Ahead.
"Sudden Stop Training is over. Maintain sufficient Stamina and Energy for Tomorrow's Competition," Chi Feichei said, taking the Backpack he brought By the Way in the morning. He took out twenty Tennis balls and put them on the Ground. "This Is the next Training..."
The five Little Devils gathered around the Tennis balls.
"Ball Juggling?" Haibara Ai asked in Speculation.
"Almost," Chi Feichei explained. "The Training is very simple. Standard Tennis balls weigh between 56.7 grams and 58.5 grams. The Tennis balls here have three different Weights: 56.7 grams, 57.7 grams, and 58.5 grams. Numbers are written on the Tennis balls. For the next period of Time, you will go to the Sand Court There, throw the ball Downwards with your Hand, and Catch it with your Hand after it bounces. You can also throw the ball Upwards and Catch it again with your Hand, or directly do Ball Juggling with a Racket. In short, Feel the Feel of each Tennis ball and the Situation of its bounce on the Sand Court. Afterwards, classify the Tennis balls according to their Weight. Each of you should write down the Numbers of the three correct Weights of Tennis balls on Paper and Entrust To them to me. Even If half of them are answered correctly, you will be considered qualified and can go to Rest."
Mitsuhiko: "..."
The Feeling is that it's very difficult.
Ayumi: "..."
What about the promised 'simple'?
Genta: "..."
Is This Training done by a Human?
Conan casually picked up two Tennis balls, one in his Left Hand and one in his Right Hand. He threw them up and Caught them A Bit, also feeling A Bit Speechless.
He had a Suspicion that the 'very simple' Chi Feichei understood belonged to the Same Level as the 'very difficult' they understood.
Accurately distinguishing all the Tennis balls of different Weights, where the Difference is at most up to 1 gram, he couldn't even do it, okay...?
"In addition, you need to pay attention to one Problem. During the Competition, No Matter where the Tennis ball flies, your Eyes must be Staring closely at the Tennis ball. The next Training is also like this. No Matter if you are throwing the ball or doing Ball Juggling, your Eyes must Stare closely at the Tennis ball," Chi Feichei said, and then Turned Around to return Under the Tree. "Training begins."
Suzuki Sonoko Looked at the five Little Devils spinning around in a pile of Tennis balls. Even Conan could only try them one by one, and then try them one by one again. After looking for a while, she took out two Tennis balls from the Backpack Chi Feichei brought and weighed them in her Hand. "I completely cannot Feel what Difference in Weight there is..."
"Of Course, using your Hand to Feel is not okay," Mabuchi Kyohei said, picking up two Tennis balls. He separately threw them onto the Ground with his Right Hand and Caught them Again, finally selecting one Tennis ball. "By throwing the ball with the Same Strength, and then according to the Situation of the bounce and the Feeling of Catching the bouncing Tennis ball with your Hand, you can make a Judgment that this one is relatively a bit heavier."
Suzuki Sonoko tried throwing it onto the Ground and Caught it A Bit afterwards, but her Feeling failed.
Mouri Ran was speechless, "For the Children, might it be A Bit too difficult?"
"Originally, the Training Should train the Feeling, familiarize oneself with the Feeling of the Tennis ball Contacting the Racket, and familiarize oneself with the bounce of the Tennis ball landing," Mabuchi Kyohei Looked Towards Chi Feichei. "But..."
He also wasn't clear Why Chi Feichei changed the Training Plan formulated by Coach Dong Tian Yue, and changed it to be so difficult.
"Giving them a Goal will be more interesting than boring Feeling," Chi Feichei Said with a Calm expression. "Moreover, there are ten 58.5-gram Tennis balls, accounting for half. As Long As they can Feel out the heaviest Tennis balls, Even If it's just those, they will pass the test."
Mouri Ran thought for a moment. Just picking the heaviest Tennis balls, As Long As they try dozens of times, plus those guessed correctly, Feeling the Weight of ten Tennis balls accurately Should be no Problem. But looking at the five Children There with Headaches, she really wanted to ask Brother Hichiji where he saw the 'more interesting' part?
Suzuki Sonoko also Looked at the group of Little Devils There and reached a conclusion—Possibility is that it's relatively more interesting for them who are watching.
Mabuchi Kyohei was A Bit Speechless. He took out a Tennis ball from his Tennis Wear Pants Pocket and threw it towards Chi Feichei. "Then Feel A Bit of This Is one of mine..."
Chi Feichei Raised his Hand and Caught the Tennis ball. He threw it onto the Ground and Caught it Again, trying twice. "57.9 grams, the error does not exceed 0.1 grams."
Mabuchi Kyohei, who was just about to go find another Tennis ball in the Backpack and let Chi Feichei compare which one was heavier: "..."
Actually, he directly reported the Weight. Is there such a way to play?
Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko Looked Towards Mabuchi Kyohei with Expectation.
Mabuchi Kyohei had Black Lines on his Forehead. "I also don't know the specific Weight..."
Although Tennis Players, after getting a Tennis ball, will all throw it onto the Ground A Bit and Catch it Again to familiarize themselves with the Tennis ball and the bounce Situation of the Venue at that Time, that is for finding the Feel. They really have no way to estimate exactly how heavy the Tennis ball is.
Suzuki Sonoko Looked at the Training There, which couldn't end for a while. She was so Curious that she ran Outside the Park and bought an Electronic Scale that could be accurate to 0.1 grams, insisting on measuring the specific Weight of that Tennis ball.
57.9 grams!
Let alone 1 gram, there wasn't even a Difference of 0.1 grams.
Mouri Ran, Suzuki Sonoko, and Mabuchi Kyohei moved their Line of Sight away from the scale's Electronic Display Screen. Their Gaze looking at Chi Feichei suddenly became like looking at a Monster.
This Is a true Monster!
"Again..." Suzuki Sonoko Looked at Chi Feichei. "Change to another Ball and Try one more Time?"
Mouri Ran: "..."
Sonoko's careful Tone was simply unbelievable.
Seeing that he had no Other Things to be busy with, Chi Feichei then also Kept Company with Suzuki Sonoko to change Tennis balls and Try several times.
The errors were all around 0.1 grams.
Actually, This Is the Talent of the Original Consciousness. Saying it's a Talent is also not appropriate. Once, in order to familiarize himself with the Feel of Tennis balls, the Original Consciousness used an Electronic Scale to select a pile of three types of Tennis balls with different Weights. He tried them one by one, again and again, Until he was able to perfectly distinguish the three types of Tennis balls by Weight.
Afterwards, he Again began to distinguish Tennis balls with a Weight difference of 0.1 grams. Of Course, this crazy Goal failed to achieve. He finally stopped within the range of 0.3 grams. By selecting the median value, Then No Matter how he estimated, the difference in Tennis ball Weight would not exceed 0.1 grams around the actual value.
Actually, it was Just to make it not so Boring when familiarizing himself with the Feel, to add A Bit of interestingness for Oneself, to formulate a Goal for Oneself, to be able to repeatedly withstand the boring practice, and to Feel the Tennis Property more thoroughly.
In order to achieve this, the number of times the Original Consciousness threw the ball was more than ten thousand times, one hundred thousand times.
So much so that after he took over the Body, As Long As he Felt the Feeling of the Tennis ball hitting his palm when bouncing on different Grounds twice, the Weight Number would automatically pop out in his mind.
Although this kind of Weight estimation Ability is limited to Tennis balls and is completely an Ability developed through the Accumulation of the number of times, But to be able to reach this Extent, he Felt impressed.
In his previous life, he didn't put in So Many Time on Tennis. At most, he was just trying to convert the spin shot Method of playing Ping Pong Ball, adding more Transformation to the spin shots in Tennis.
After Chi Feichei finished Trying, Mabuchi Kyohei couldn't help but Again coax Chi Feichei to go play Tennis, not even hesitating to leverage their Relationship. "Mr. Chi, speaking of which, you can also be considered my Senior Apprentice and Senior. Not having played a Tennis match with you is really a type of Regret. There is a Tennis Court prepared for the Grand Competition Training There..."
Before, he heard at the Club that Chi Feichei was not bad at playing Tennis, so he just wanted to play a match with Chi Feichei. However, the Outcome was that Chi Feichei didn't play with him at all, always hiding alone in the Serving Training Room.
Present, his Curiosity Already could not suppress anymore.
No Matter what, he had to coax Chi Feichei to go play a match Today!
"You still have a Competition Tomorrow." Chi Feichei reminded him.
"So that's Why I need Training," Mabuchi Kyohei sighed with Pretense. "Coach Tota cannot Come Over this Time, and there is no one to Keep Company with me to play a Training Match."
"Brother Hichiji, go Try it!" Suzuki Sonoko egged him on.
"Uh-huh!" Mouri Ran also Smilingly Nodded with Expectation.
Seeing that Mabuchi Kyohei would not give up if he didn't play a match, Chi Feichei then also agreed.
Seeing that there was Excitement to See, the Detective group of five held their Tennis balls and carried their Rackets to change Venue.
Anyway, going to the Tennis Court for Ball Juggling and throwing the ball Training was also okay.
While Chi Feichei and Mabuchi Kyohei finished Inspecting their Rackets, guessing the Coin, and Confirming who would Serve first, Genta also stood behind the Protective Net, stretching out his Neck and Looking with Expectation. "Who do you Say will win?"
Hassashi, wrapped around Haibara Ai's Arm, immediately Said with Confidence, "Master wins! Master wins!"
"Brother Hichiji! Definitely Brother Hichiji!" Suzuki Sonoko was also very certain. By the Way, she heavily promoted the Matter of Chi Feichei estimating the Tennis ball Weight Just Now to the five Little Devils.
On the court, the two people Decided who would Serve first.
Chi Feichei got the Right to Serve first. Feeling that Fate was not giving Mabuchi Kyohei an Opportunity at all, he reminded him, "I'm not Be Good At playing Training Matches with people."
Mabuchi Kyohei Understood. It was Just the Intention of not being Be Good At hitting easy shots for people. He Nodded with a serious expression. "I Understand. Please Intervene with full Strength!"
Anyway, he wasn't for letting Chi Feichei hit easy shots for him either. He was Just Curious about Chi Feichei's Ability.
Chi Feichei held the Tennis ball, Turned Around and left the edge of the net. After standing still, he threw the ball Downwards onto the Sand Court and Caught it Again with his Hand, Feeling the Ball Feel.
This side, Mabuchi Kyohei was wearing Red and White Tennis Wear. Nothing Else remained on his Face but seriousness. He tightened his Fingers, gripped his Tennis Racket tightly, and his resolute Gaze Until didn't leave the Tennis ball in Chi Feichei's Hand.
There, Chi Feichei was wearing white Tennis Wear with two Purple Stripes, the same style as the Junior Detective League. His Expression was Calm. He threw the ball up, and his Eyes also kept Following the Tennis ball Until.
Suzuki Sonoko stood behind the Protective Net. Her Eyes were all sparkling. "Indeed, a Handsome Guy when serious is the most handsome!"
Conan glanced at Suzuki Sonoko Speechlessly. Very quickly, he forgot Suzuki Sonoko's Words and was seriously Staring at the court.
Being able to See a Profession-level intense competition was also a Matter worth Expectation.
Before the Swing, Chi Feichei silently withdrew half of his Strength, and immediately withdrew half Again.
Tennis is an Exercise where 'great Strength creates miracles'.
Although Tennis not only emphasizes Arm Strength and requires the Whole Body to Cooperate in exerting force, But his Present Physical Fitness is really not worse than an athlete's. In terms of exerting force Skill, very few people can compare with him. Plus his Present Arm Strength...
If he exerted force A Bit more, Mabuchi Kyohei probably couldn't Catch his Ball.
"Bang!"
The Tennis Racket Contacted the Tennis ball, emitting a muffled Blow sound.
Then...
Mabuchi Kyohei then couldn't see the Tennis ball clearly Again...
A streak of black line carrying an afterimage flew over the Net. It quickly landed Beside him and quickly bounced away. The 'snap' landing sound was still Beside his ear, but the Ball had already disappeared.
By the Time he Realized, the sound of the Tennis ball hitting the iron net Already came from the Protective Net behind him.
The people outside the court silently Turned their Heads, Looking at that Tennis ball that had fallen to the Ground.
⊙ω⊙
This...
This kind of Serve, can someone really Return it back?
Lowering the Request A Bit more, can someone really make a Reaction before that streak of Black Shadow flashed past?
Mabuchi Kyohei also Turned his Head, Looking at the Tennis ball bouncing after landing. A string of unclear Characters similar to the meaning of 'What the f*ck...' also floated past in his Heart.
After the Silence, Suzuki Sonoko's Eyes lit up Again.
Brother Hichiji is indeed her eternal Idol!
Uh-huh, she Thinks she can rank Kaito Kid one place lower.
(End of Chapter)
"Genta looked down at the Sandy Soil under their feet and muttered in a low voice, "Didn't Mr. Mabuchi say earlier that the characteristic of a Red Clay Tennis Court is that the ball has a lot of friction with the Ground when it lands, and the rebound speed of the Ball is slow?""
Come, come, come, tell him, where was the rebound speed of that Ball just now slow?
Conan chuckled dryly in his Heart. In theory, that was right, but Chi Feichei this Fellow... was simply not Human!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Mabuchi Kyohei Expressionless looked at the Ball quickly bouncing away from him.
Chi Feichei Speak Out and Asked, "Still playing?"
Mabuchi Kyohei took a deep breath and Nodded firmly, "Play!"
He was very sure that even if he tried a hundred more times, he still wouldn't be able to receive that Ball from Chi Feichei.
Then, he would make it so that Chi Feichei couldn't receive his Ball either!
From the Trace on the Ground and the Wire Fence, and the State of the Ball landing, it could be seen that the Ball Chi Feichei had hit just now had no Spin.
It was just a Lightning Ball created by excessive Strength.
But as a Professional Player, he understood the Movement Pattern of a Tennis Ball flying out better, and he also understood some profound Skill. Perhaps he could use the Transformation of a Spin Ball to make it so that Chi Feichei couldn't receive his Ball either, and forcefully make it a Draw.
Then he would Take a Gamble, Gambling that Chi Feichei's Skill was not as good as his!
"Bang!"
Mabuchi Kyohei used a Topspin Serve, not only Intending to use a Spin Ball to Suppress Chi Feichei, but also using the characteristic of Sandy Soil being easy for Foot to slip, wanting to make the Landing Point further away and make Chi Feichei run, increasing the Probability of Chi Feichei Mistake.
"Pa!"
The Ball landed for the First Time, and it wasn't close to Chi Feichei. The Spin on the Sand after landing also made the Angle of the Ball bounce off deviate.
Chi Feichei had already moved in front of the Ball. Due To the Ball rotating during Movement, using a normal Return Method might make the Ball fly off to who-knows-where. He also used Skill to receive the Ball, making the Spin Speed of the Tennis Ball flying out a little faster, while the Strength was slightly controlled.
"Bang! Pa! Bang!"
The Ball once again landed at high Speed, flashed past Mabuchi Kyohei's side, bounced up and smashed into the Protective Net.
Chi Feichei: "..."
It seemed that he needed to reduce his Strength a little more.
Mabuchi Kyohei: "..."
Sorry, he still couldn't receive this Ball.
Moreover, the Trajectory of the Ball bouncing after landing, and the Ball that was still spinning after hitting the Protective Net, told him that Chi Feichei wasn't incapable of Spin Ball.
He just didn't use it Before, because he felt it was unnecessary?
(_)
Expression gradually Grievance.
It Seemingly didn't Matter whether he used Spin Skill or not, he couldn't receive the other party's Ball...
Chi Feichei saw Mabuchi Kyohei showing this kind of Expression, and was Speechless in his Heart, "Still playing?"
Although Mabuchi Kyohei's appearance was not bad, he really had no Interest in Men. If a girl showed this Expression, it might be cute, but changing it to a big Man was a bit unbearable to Look at directly, making him want to hit the Ball at Mabuchi Kyohei's Face... No, that wouldn't do. In front of the upright and righteous Elementary School Student, he was Not That Kind Of violent Human.
Mabuchi Kyohei took another deep breath and Nodded, "Continue playing! Play to the End according to the Match Rules."
Although Coach didn't want him to be too competitive and spare no Price for Victory, as a Professional Tennis Player, he still needed to have the necessary Perseverance.
He couldn't do something like leaving in Frustration without finishing the Match.
Next, he would lower his Request. He didn't ask to be able to get a Draw with this Monster anymore, he would try his best to score Points.
In a Tennis Match, Men's singles, except for the Grand Slam Tournament and the Year-End Finals which are best-of-five sets, other Matches are best-of-three sets.
Private Matches are generally played using the best-of-three sets system. What Mabuchi Kyohei said about playing to the End according to the Match Rules meant using this Match Method.
And each Bet Match has six Games. The Victory Request for a single Bet Match is that the Point Difference is at least two Games.
In Other Words, the score to End each Bet Match could be 4:6, 3:6, etc., but it couldn't be an Ending score of 5:6 where the Point Difference was less than 2. If it was a 6:6 Draw, then a Tie-break Game was needed to see which side reached the seventh Point First. The person who reached the seventh Point First would win that Bet Match.
And each small Game is composed of 4 Points, but the Scoring System is not 1 Point, 2 Points, 3 Points, 4 Points, but the First Time scoring is 15 Points, the Second Time scoring is 30 Points, the Third Time scoring is 40 Points, and finally getting another 1 Point counts as winning.
A very strange Scoring System.
Small Games also follow the Rule of 'at least two Point Difference to win'. If it's 40:40 Draw, even if one side wins the fourth 1 Point next Time, they won't win directly. The scoreboard will use 'AD' to indicate 'leading', and they have to win another Point for this Game to be considered won.
"Bang!"
"Pa!"
The sound of Tennis Ball Blow was constantly heard on the court, demonstrating the Charm of Strength.
The score was also constantly advancing.
"15:0..."
"30:0..."
"40:0..."
...
Soon, the First Game ended.
"Exchange Station?" Chi Feichei Asked.
There is a Rule in formal Tennis Matches that after the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and other odd-numbered Games in each Bet Match, and when the sum of the Games between the two sides at the End of each Bet Match is an odd number, the two sides Exchange Station.
Mabuchi Kyohei Nodded silently and Exchanged Station with Chi Feichei.
The Match continued.
Chi Feichei smoothly won 6 Games First, the score Point Difference was greater than 2, and the First Bet Match ended.
Ayumi put her Hands in front of her Skirt Hem, her Fingers tightly pinched together, watching Mabuchi Kyohei's Eyes gradually become watery.
Mabuchi Kyohei used all kinds of Methods when Serving, trying to score Points, but unfortunately Chi Feichei could Return them all.
And Chi Feichei's Serve was much simpler, and it was difficult for Mabuchi Kyohei to hold on to Return for a Rally.
The whole Situation was Just Like an Adult beating Children, relying on their own Physical Advantage, completely unreasonable.
With Chi Feichei's Ability to mobilize the Strength around his Body, choosing the best Method of exerting Strength had almost become a Habit. It was difficult to restrain Oneself even if he wanted to hold back. Coupled with his terrifying Arm Strength now, even if he didn't talk about Skill or Tactics, and restrained his Strength, he could still make it difficult for Mabuchi Kyohei to Handle.
In the End, Chi Feichei still forcefully restrained his Method of exerting Strength and Strength, and let Mabuchi Kyohei score twice, and had two more Rallies with Mabuchi Kyohei with give and take.
Until the End, Mabuchi Kyohei was still Stunned.
Although Chi Feichei took care of his Face and didn't let him get 'bald-headed', thinking about the two Points he let him score at the End, he was still so sad.
_
Expression gradually Grievance.
In This Situation, it Seemingly didn't Matter whether Chi Feichei let him or not, he was Grievance!
Chi Feichei saw Mabuchi Kyohei showing this kind of Expression again, and forcefully endured the Impulse to smash the Racket over.
As a Professional Player, could he not show this kind of Expression of a young lady being bullied? Could he maintain the demeanor of a Professional Player?
But it Seemingly was a bit too much, so should he Comfort him?
Mabuchi Kyohei was still quite nice. After the Last Time Matters ended, he took the Initiative to come to Find People again Before this Competition, which could be considered conveying the Goodwill of 'making Friends', and this Personality of his was also quite comfortable to get along with.
However, Chi Feichei suddenly Realized of a Famous Detective hugging his Head and rolling around in his Car, and decisively gave up the Idea of Comfort.
He didn't quite Understand the Mentality of exploding after being Comforted, so Never Mind.
He could shift the Responsibility—who asked Mabuchi Kyohei to insist on comparing Tennis?
If he was Find People to team up to play Basketball, the Request for Strength wouldn't be that high, and if he Tested his Team Cooperation Ability, Mabuchi Kyohei Probably wouldn't lose.
If it was playing table tennis, his Strength might be too much and he might shoot Oneself in the Foot, and instead not play well, but he was also not bad at playing table tennis, and it was not certain who would win or lose.
After All, table tennis was what he played from childhood in his Previous Life, adapting to various harsh Condition such as brick Table, Book pile Table, Cardboard playing, Wooden Board playing, brick Racket playing...
The inside and outside of the court were silent for a Moment. Mabuchi Kyohei recovered and felt that it was a Pity that Chi Feichei didn't play in Competitions, but when he Thought of Coach Dong Tian Yue's Attitude, it was inconvenient to directly Ask Chi Feichei to play in Competitions. He Stepped Forward and said implicitly, "Actually, Coach Dong Tian's Intention is not to oppose you playing Professional Matches, Just..."
"Don't overthink it," Chi Feichei Understood the Real Intention Mabuchi Kyohei wanted to express, "I have no Interest in playing Professional Competition."
Mabuchi Kyohei: "..."
(_)
Even if Chi Feichei Oneself didn't have that Interest, he still felt it was a Pity not to see Chi Feichei on the Competition field.
No Matter how he Thought about it, it was a Pity...
Gradually Grievance.
Chi Feichei shifted his Line of Sight and Looked Towards the Junior Detective League watching the Excitement at the edge of the court. If he continued to Look, he was worried that he would really make a violent Action like 'Racket slapping Face'. With a Cold Face, he reminded the five Kid, "Training!"
Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi Subconsciously stood up straight, "Uh... Yes!"
Conan and Haibara Ai's Hearts also tightened, and then they were Speechless.
Just won against a Professional Player, could Chi Feichei show a little bit of Happy Expression?
Suddenly being so fierce, Just Like being provoked by someone, it was very scary...
Okay, okay, they would continue Training, okay?
When the Junior Detective League was Training, Chi Feichei watched for a while, picked up a Tennis Ball, and Looked Towards Mabuchi Kyohei, "Mabuchi, Look."
Mabuchi Kyohei Looked Towards Chi Feichei in Doubt.
Chi Feichei tossed the Tennis Ball and hit it using a Slice Serve Method, with very light Strength.
Slice Serve is to hit the Ball from the upper right to the lower left. The Ball Speed is Fast, and the Serve hit rate is also High. Many athletes in Various Countries are accustomed to Slice Serve.
The Ball that Chi Feichei served was not considered Fast Ball Speed, even quite Slow, completely violating the characteristics of Slice Serve, and the Flight Path of the Ball also revealed a trace of weirdness. The Landing Point and bounce Method after crossing the Net were even more beyond Mabuchi Kyohei's Expectation.
After Mabuchi Kyohei finished Watching, he Looked at Chi Feichei in a Stunned manner.
If he was standing on the opposite side of the court, facing this Serve, First of all, the Ball Speed would completely exceed his Expectation and make his Pace lose control. And even if he stabilized, the Landing Point and bounce Method of the Ball that he couldn't Guess at all would also make him run in the wrong Direction or Distance, and he wouldn't be able to receive this Ball.
"Bring the Strength upwards a A Bit." Chi Feichei didn't take the Tennis Ball again, but Just used a very Slow Speed to Swing the Racket in the air, letting Mabuchi Kyohei see clearly the subtle Action of his Body and Arm when Serving.
These subtle Actions were also the Core of Skill.
Mabuchi Kyohei Looked at it twice, followed suit and imitated it, slowly Feeling the Difference between this Serving Style and normal Serving Style.
Chi Feichei corrected it a few times, and after Confirming that Mabuchi Kyohei had remembered the Key Points, he calmly reminded, "Don't practice anymore, you have a Competition Tomorrow, it's too late to practice and learn, it will instead Impact your State. There's no other Shortcut, practice more, Find Feeling Oneself, and you can Adjust appropriately according to your own Feeling."
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 694 Ai Haibara: The Sun Rose from the West
"Thank you, I..." Mabuchi Kyohei was a little unsure what to say.
This is different from sparring and teaching him other skills. Having this special Serving Style gives him too much of an advantage in a Competition. As long as he masters it, even opponents he currently finds insurmountable will no longer be a problem.
He didn't know how long Hissashi had spent developing this Skill, but he just felt it was a pity that Hissashi wasn't competing anymore. It also gave him a feeling of taking Hissashi's hard-earned Achievement to win.
"Practice more. This Serve is easy to lose direction with, and you might end up making Serving Style Mistakes yourself." Hissashi saw that Mabuchi Kyohei was being long-winded and not getting to the point, so he continued with the Serious Business, "Once you're proficient, practice normal Slice Method more. In a Competition, you can combine normal Slice Serving Style with this Serving Style."
"I Understand." Mabuchi Kyohei Nodded, feeling that words of gratitude were a bit Pale and weak. As for Reward, Hissashi didn't seem to need it. He could only suppress his feelings in his Heart and mentally simulate the Tactics Hissashi had mentioned.
If he could master it and exchange between the two Serving Styles, then not only would his Opponent be unable to guess the Landing Point and rebound Direction of the Tennis Ball's trajectory, but even for Tennis Balls served with the same Slice Method, his Opponent wouldn't be able to guess whether the Ball Speed was Fast or Slow.
And he could switch Serving Styles at will based on the Situation, his own State, and The Other Party's State, making his Serve even more unpredictable.
This is a double Tactics of Skill plus Mentality.
He felt that if The Other Party's Mentality wasn't good, they would definitely be driven crazy by Torture.
Hissashi Thought for a moment, then Said again, "It will Probably take two or three years, and then I'll teach you two Footwork Skills."
He didn't have any Mental State burden.
The Original Consciousness, like Mabuchi Kyohei, learned the most standardized Actions and Skills from the beginning, more like a 'orthodox' from a professional school, with a very solid Foundation. In his Previous Life, when he learned Tennis, he relied on his own Degree of mastery over Strength and quick starts. When playing Tennis, he just did whatever was Fun, regardless of whether it was standard or not, as long as he didn't get Injured. He also figured out many 'unorthodox' approaches.
He was very Curious about what Effect would be produced after the combination of 'orthodox' and 'unorthodox'. However, he had no Interest in Professional Tennis and didn't want to spend several years fusing and mastering it. So, it would be better to let Mabuchi Kyohei, who also possessed the 'orthodox' Portion, try to melt down the 'unorthodox' Portion and let him see the Outcome.
Moreover, he himself knew more than just this one Skill. Even if he only knew this one Skill, since he wouldn't play Tennis Match, there was no need to keep it as a trump card.
Teaching it to someone who was pleasing to his Eye and who needed it, he wouldn't feel like he had wasted his time figuring it out.
Mabuchi Kyohei: "..."
There are also Footwork Skills?
How many Skills has Mr. Chi actually developed?
But Mr. Chi is really so good that he is moved. He will remember it, and...
He really wanted to tie his Younger Sister back and have her apologize to Hissashi!
Afterwards, the two of them watched the Junior Detective League Training for a while.
Ai Haibara was the first to submit the Answer, even earlier than Conan, and out of a total of twenty Tennis Balls, the weight estimates were accurate for 15 of them.
"All 10 of the heaviest Balls have been found," Mabuchi Kyohei said with a Sigh as he watched Hissashi Number the Tennis Balls, "Amazing!"
Haibara Ai had a Calm face.
She could do it Because Previously when making Medicine, she would pay attention to the Body Weight changes of White Mouse. Sometimes she even had to Take Out the White Mouse by hand to Confirm the changes. She was quite sensitive to weight changes as precise as 1 gram or less than 1 gram.
Also, during this Time of Training, she had worked harder than everyone else.
Did they think that by praising her like this, she would be as Happy as a Child? Childish.
"Hassashi, This Time calls for praise, you know." Mabuchi Kyohei reminded a certain cold-faced temporary Coach.
"Ai's Training during this Time has also been the most diligent among everyone." Hissashi didn't believe that Talent determined everything. Talent was Important, but without Effort, it was useless. He looked up at Haibara Ai and Said, "Not bad, as expected of my Younger Sister."
Haibara Ai: "..."
(●—●)
Since you Say So...
She suddenly really wanted to raise her chin a little, but that kind of childish Behavior was too Lose Face...
Okay, just raise it a A Bit.
Brother Hichiji rarely praises people, she has to give Face.
Yes, it's Just to give Brother Hichiji Face, that's why she's not very Happy.
Mabuchi Kyohei didn't notice Haibara Ai's Subtle Move. Seeing Haibara Ai's aloof and silent face, he somewhat suspected that she was actually the Chi family's 'real Second Child'.
Hissashi did notice Haibara Ai's subtly raised chin. He couldn't help but Reach Out his hand and ruffle Haibara Ai's Head.
Haibara Ai was stunned. It wasn't until Hissashi let go of her hand and went to check Conan's Answer that she looked up at the Sun in the sky.
Brother Hichiji would actually make such an intimate Action as a 'head pat'. Did the Sun rise from the west today...?
Conan was a little later than Haibara Ai, but he still found all ten of the heaviest Tennis Balls correctly. Seeing that the final number of correct answers was 14, he didn't really take it to Heart.
Tennis wasn't his favorite; Reasoning was. But suddenly being praised by Hissashi in an indifferent Tone, he was actually a little flattered.
After Conan secretly reminded the other three Children that the Key was 'find the heaviest Balls', Mitsuhiko, Ayumi, and Genta successively achieved the Goal. Between answering and guessing, the number of correct answers was basically around 11, or even more than 11.
Mabuchi Kyohei not only praised them himself, but also pulled Hissashi in to praise them together.
Although Hissashi only Said things like 'Not bad' and 'Refuel for tomorrow's Competition', even Haibara Ai and Conan were hard to resist Hissashi's praise, let alone the other three Children.
As a result, the five Kids were all a little lightheaded. Even after Hissashi announced the end of Training, they were still a little unsatisfied compared to Before Training.
"I can continue Training!" Mitsuhiko insisted.
Ayumi Nodded, "I don't feel very tired."
Mabuchi Kyohei stood Aside, Speechless.
He Discovered that even without praise, these Children's Mental State could be adjusted to the best State.
Achieving something they originally thought they couldn't do was in itself a kind of recognition and encouragement.
Hissashi's move was really amazing, Just Like being injected with chicken Blood.
It's Just that after adding praise, it seemed to make these Children overly excited.
"For tomorrow's Competition, Training must be stopped to conserve Stamina and maintain a relaxed Mentality," Hissashi Said in an irrefutable Tone, "You can go out for a walk, but don't play too late."
"Yes~!"
Being Stared at by Hissashi, the five People obediently responded.
Hissashi didn't Intend to go play, and Haibara Ai also wanted to Return to Room in the Hotel to Rest.
Conan saw Mouri Ran was going, and decisively followed like a little Tail.
In the end, A Group of People separated. Hissashi, Haibara Ai, and Mabuchi Kyohei Returned to the Hotel, and the others went to stroll around Kumamoto Castle Honmaru Goten.
"You Seemingly really like Children." Mabuchi Kyohei casually chatted with Hissashi on the way back.
"Not really." Hissashi Said truthfully.
He knew his Character too well.
If he encountered crying, naughty, and willful Children, he would instead have no Patience. He could clearly be patient while sitting and drinking Tea, but facing that kind of Situation, he would instantly get angry and turn cold in a second.
In his Previous Life, he wanted to temper his Patience and tried to interact with those kinds of Children he didn't like, but in the end, he still couldn't bear it.
To put it bluntly, he Just liked obedient Children.
Like Ubu Saika, her Personality wasn't something he disliked. He also treated her as a big Child, but once she schemed against him or violated his Intention, his Good Impression of her would instantly drop to freezing point, and it would be difficult to reach the Mentality he had when they first met.
There would be a feeling of resistance from the Heart, which he couldn't control.
And in the Junior Detective League, not to mention there were two 'pseudo-Children' with relatively mature minds, the other three Children, although they occasionally caused a little Trouble, usually didn't cause Trouble for others. If they did cause Trouble, Conan and Haibara Ai would cover for them, and they would also Apologize and listen to him. Even Ayumi, as a Girl, wouldn't cry and be disobedient. What Reason was there to dislike them?
Mabuchi Kyohei originally Intended to use 'Children' as a Topic to chat with Hissashi, After All Hissashi seemed to have a lot of Experience in taking care of Children. But he was choked by Hissashi's Sentence 'Not really' and was Silent for a while, "Don't you and your Younger Sister chat?"
Hissashi, Stare: "..."
Haibara Ai, Stare: "..."
Recently, there's only the Matter of preparing for tomorrow's Competition. What needed to be Said has already been Said. What's there to chat about?
Anyway, Haibara Ai didn't Think Hissashi would be long-winded and encourage her to Refuel. She also wouldn't Say to Hissashi things like 'Competition is so Fun' or 'I'm really looking forward to it', Because she played Tennis Just to exercise her Physique and didn't think it was very Fun in the first place.
Mabuchi Kyohei: "..."
No, the three of them are Walking silently like this. Don't these two People feel awkward? Don't they Think they should chat about something?
What's with these gazes of 'You're so childish, what's there to chat about'?
Fine, fine, consider it him being nosy. Let's just walk quietly.
The three People walked quietly back to the Hotel again.
When they arrived in front of the Hotel Room, Haibara Ai handed Hissashi Hissashi, whom she had been playing with all the way, "Then I'll Return to Room first."
Hissashi took Hissashi. He didn't know if it was his Illusion, but he felt Hissashi had become even smoother and shinier, "I'll Call you for Dinner at Night."
"Okay." Haibara Ai opened her Room Door and Returned to Room.
Mabuchi Kyohei was completely Speechless. Didn't these siblings even play a Game of communicating Affection? Returning to the Hotel to Rest really was Just Returning to Room to Rest, "Then I'll go back first. My Room is Upstairs, 2302. See you later for Dinner!"
Hissashi was Speechless. Was this Fellow planning to freeload Dinner with them?
"See you at Dinner."
After Returning to Room, Haibara Ai opened the Laptop she had brought and Research Drug Data.
In another Room, Hissashi sent an Email to Yingqu Yan Nan:
[Slivova, if a Girl named Ubu Saika contacts you, arrange for two People to pick her up. Contact me after picking her up. Don't show your Face. Tell the People picking her up to be careful to avoid Surveillance Camera. Also, if you have Time today, go to the Laboratory at the Training Ground and help me add the Powder in the Blue Bag to the Food Storage of the White Mouse Animal Cage. Use all of it. Afterwards, press the fifth Button from the left in the second row. --Raki]
Having a specialized feeding Machine is indeed more convenient. You can remotely Monitor White Mouse and control Diet and drinking Water.
His pregnant Rats, except for a few that 'miscarried', were not in good State. In layman's terms, their 'fetal condition is unstable', and it's estimated that they will give birth in a few days. He had to replenish the necessary Nutrition for the White Mouse in advance.
He didn't know when this Competition would end, and it would be too late by the Time he Returned.
He didn't need to worry about Ubu Saika's side. He contacted Yingqu Yan Nan using his Organization Code Name Member Identity. Yingqu Yan Nan would Understand that it was an Organization Matter, and arranging People to pick her up would also be done carefully, so as not to be tricked.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 695 Teacher, Report to Police
[Ok. ——Slivova]
Chi Feichei saw the reply, deleted two emails, put away his Mobile Phone, lay on the Bed, and silently recalled the cases that might happen recently.
The Junior Detective League members, Mori Kogoro, Ran, and Suzuki Sonoko, this combination running to Kumamoto, it shouldn't be peaceful, but it's been two days, and there hasn't been an Incident, nor has there been a suspected fellow who will die appearing Beside them, it's weird...
However, he thought about it, but couldn't recall any Incident in the Tennis Tournament. Some Plots he had seen were too long ago, and he really couldn't remember Plots that weren't special.
In addition, when he watched "Conan" in his previous life, he watched one case after another. There were very few daily routines, and sometimes he could only Realize which Plot it was when a case happened...
Hissashi lay on the Pillow beside him, pressed down, found a comfortable Posture to curl up, raised his Eye and Discovery Chi Feichei looking at the Ceiling in a daze, and was a little Curious, "Master, aren't you taking a lunch break yet?"
"Sleeping." Chi Feichei closed his Eyes.
He couldn't remember, so it was probably not an exciting case.
He only got back to the Hotel at two o'clock in the Early Morning last night, and got up at six o'clock in the morning to train those Children again. He had to catch up on sleep.
Hissashi moved closer to Chi Feichei's Face, feeling Chi Feichei's Aura and Temperature, and sighed with satisfaction in a low voice, "Sleeping with Master for lunch~"
Chi Feichei: "..."
He suddenly wanted to open his Eyes and give Hissashi... Never Mind, let's sleep.
...
A Day passed peacefully.
The next Day morning, the Junior Group Tennis Match began, and still no Incident happened.
Chi Feichei sat in the Audience Seats to watch the Competition. Hissashi also quietly poked his Head out of his sleeve, looking at Haibara Ai, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta who were on the court.
Under the Training of Coach Dong Tian Yue and Chi Feichei, the four of them were too conspicuous among a Group of Children who were at most eleven years old.
Even if they couldn't understand how standard and smooth the actions of gripping the racket and Serve were, just looking at the way they tossed the Ball before Serve to feel the Ball sense and their firm Gaze following the Tennis movement, they exuded a sense of professionalism.
The Competition was also overwhelmingly one-sided.
The four of them listened to Mabuchi Kyohei's Statement that 'Competitions should be taken seriously' and showed no mercy, basically making it difficult for their Opponents to even touch the Ball.
As they played, the Opponents of the four became 'Mabuchi Kyohei-style gradually aggrieved faces'.
Mabuchi Kyohei took advantage of the fact that his Competition hadn't started yet, and ran to this Ballpark to watch the Excitement. Seeing the Style of the four, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he sneaked away.
Should he not have said 'take it seriously' to the four Children in the morning, but should have said 'Competition second, Friendship first'?
With the Training these Kid received, compared with other Children who even Swing casually, it was a bit bullying. Wouldn't they make other Children cry?
Sin, run away, run away.
When Mabuchi Kyohei sneaked away, Suzuki Sonoko also pulled Mouri Ran to sneak away.
"Wait, Sonoko," Mouri Ran asked in Doubt, "I'll Say hello to Brother Hichiji..."
"No, no," Suzuki Sonoko pulled Mouri Ran away from Between Seats, and said in a low voice, "If he knows that we picked up someone else's Mobile Phone and peeked at other people's Text Message, that would be too embarrassing. Anyway, we're only going for a while, and we'll be back soon."
Mouri Ran Half-Moon Eyes glanced at Suzuki Sonoko.
Don't drag her into this. It was Sonoko who peeked at the Text Message, and since she knew it would be embarrassing, Why did she still peek at other people's Text Message...
In the end, Mouri Ran still compromised and sneaked away with Suzuki Sonoko.
Rear, Chi Feichei, Hissashi, and Conan, who had just returned from the Washroom, silently watched, Stare.
Did these two people think they were sneaking away very secretly?
Seeing Suzuki Sonoko and Mouri Ran had sneaked away from the side Door, Conan walked to the Chair Beside Chi Feichei and sat down, explaining, "Yesterday Sister Ran and Sister Sonoko picked up a Mobile Phone. Sister Sonoko peeked at a Text Message sent to the Mobile Phone Master, and knew that the other party had arranged for the Mobile Phone Master named 'Enko' to meet at the Coffee Shop near the Tennis Match Venue. They should be planning to go there now to hand over the Mobile Phone to the person who sent the Text Message, and Let Them transfer it to the Mobile Phone Master..."
Speaking of this, Conan Looked towards the court and hesitated for a moment.
Mori Kogoro went to drink Shochu early in the morning and didn't come to watch the Competition at all. If they also left, there would be no one waiting for the four people who worked Hard in the Competition.
Leaving Chi Feichei alone here to wait, it didn't seem very kind either, making him seem a bit valuing women over friends.
Anyway, Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko went together, and there shouldn't be anything wrong. He can't always be like a little Tail, he has to be generous...
Conan Made a Decided, "That Coffee Shop is near the Venue, and the Competition is almost over. After the Competition is over, let's Go Together to Find People them, and we can also Find a Place to have Lunch."
"Uh-huh."
Chi Feichei Considered for a moment, and didn't rush to leave.
This should be the only sudden Situation in the past three Days, with the Aura of an Incident, but with Mouri Ran's Skill and Protagonist Halo, Even If something happens, there won't be too much Danger.
Five minutes Afterwards, the Competition ended.
After Chi Feichei waited for the four Children to return to the Audience Seats, he handed the Mineral Water prepared In Advance to them one by one.
"You guys worked Hard!" Conan said words of consolation on behalf of Chi Feichei with a smile.
"Not really," Mitsuhiko Say, "It's not as tiring as I imagined, even easier than Training."
Genta clenched his Fist, raised his Arm, and didn't care that he couldn't show off his Muscle, and said full of energy, "That's right, if we play another match in the Afternoon, I can Handle it completely!"
Ayumi took a sip of Mineral Water, Looked around, and asked in Doubt, "Where are Sister Ran and Sister Sonoko?"
"They should have Go To the Coffee Shop nearby, let's Go Find People them..." Conan said while leading the way out, and mentioned about Suzuki Sonoko picking up a Mobile Phone when they went out to Play yesterday.
"What," Genta Half-Moon Eyes, "Sister Sonoko actually peeked at other people's Text Message yesterday..."
A Group of People arrived outside the Coffee Shop, and Suzuki Sonoko, who was running towards the Venue in a panic, almost bumped into Chi Feichei.
Discovery the person in front of him quickly dodged, Suzuki Sonoko Looked up in Doubt, and saw that Chi Feichei had brought the Children over, and said anxiously, "Brother Hichiji, Ran is gone!"
According to Suzuki Sonoko, they were originally sitting on the Seats outside the Coffee Shop waiting for someone, but she was a little nervous, so she went to the Washroom alone. When she came back, Mouri Ran, who was waiting alone outside the Coffee Shop, disappeared. She had already Find People inside and outside the Shop, and in the Washroom, but no one saw Mouri Ran's Figure.
Mouri Ran was not the kind of person who would leave quietly for so long without Saying hello.
When a Group of People Find People Mouri Ran again, Mori Kogoro arrived at the Competition Venue, Discovery that everyone was gone, Called Chi Feichei, heard about the Situation, and rushed over in a hurry, joining the Team to Find People.
Chi Feichei stood in front of the Seats where Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko had sat, observing the distance between the Desktop and the Chairs being pushed away, "Sonoko, you haven't moved the Table and Chairs Afterwards, have you?"
"No." Suzuki Sonoko shook her Head quickly.
"You said Before, Ran's Wallet was originally still on the Table?" Chi Feichei asked again.
"Yes," Suzuki Sonoko said anxiously, "But when I came out, her Wallet that was on the Table was also gone, so I thought she went to the Shop first to pay the Account or buy something else."
Chi Feichei walked to the Seat where Mouri Ran had sat, "There are no too messy Traces on the Table. The distance the Chair was pushed away is a bit far and tilted to the left..."
Conan Understood, and immediately ran closer to Observation, "In Other Words, Sister Ran left in a hurry for some Reason, even getting up was very hasty, and then ran to the left."
Chi Feichei moved to an Angle parallel to the front edge of the Chair, Looked Front, and Discovery the Seat directly facing the Corner of the Wall Side.
Conan also Looked over almost at the Same Time, and turned his Head to anxiously Ask Suzuki Sonoko, "Sister Sonoko, when you came, were there any Guests sitting at that Table? Sister Ran might have been frightened by the People All at that Table, so she got up in a hurry to Look at them, and then left!"
"Ah?" Suzuki Sonoko quickly recalled, "I remember there were two Men sitting there. When we came, I wanted to Check if the person who arranged to meet the Mobile Phone Master had arrived, so I specially paid attention. One of them was wearing a green Shirt and gray Suit Pants, slightly fat, and wearing Glasses. The other one was facing away from us. I didn't See his Face clearly. I only saw that he had very Short Hair, wearing a brown Shirt and Jeans..."
Chi Feichei had already Go To that Table and observed the State of the Chairs on the Ground, "It's them, and the distance between the Chairs and the Table is also very far. The front edge of the Chairs is facing the Place where Ran was sitting Before. They also got up and left in a hurry. It's Possible they went to chase Ran."
"Ah?" Mori Kogoro became anxious, "How could this happen?"
"Master!"
Hissashi, who had been Find People Scent everywhere Before, poked his Head out from behind the Wall Side formed by Green Plants, "Come Over here, there are very Weird Traces here!"
Chi Feichei moved to Go To.
"Hissashi?" Conan saw the Place where Hissashi was, which was the Direction Mouri Ran might have Run Away, and also followed, "What did it Find People?"
Hissashi swam quickly on the Floor, leading a Group of People through the Green Plants, to behind a House, and stopped after the Corner.
Chi Feichei raised his Eye and Looked, and suddenly Reach Out to stop Mori Kogoro who was about to Step Forward, "Teacher, Report to Police."
"What?!" Mori Kogoro's Tears instantly burst out, wanting to get past Chi Feichei, but was held back tightly by Chi Feichei, and collapsed, "I don't believe it, Let Me Go!"
Conan felt a chill in his Heart, poked his Head out to Look, but Discovery nothing behind the Wall.
"What are you Saying?" Chi Feichei stopped Mori Kogoro, "I just don't want you to destroy the Crime Scene."
"That's my Daughter!" Mori Kogoro's Tears flowed down, and he imagined that behind the Wall was the Corpse of his Daughter who had been murdered, and Chi Feichei stopped him because he was afraid he would be stimulated, "Let Me Go See her! Ran!"
Chi Feichei Realize that his Teacher probably misunderstood, "Ran is not here."
"What..." Mori Kogoro stopped struggling, his Expression Stunned, Tears still flowing down, "What?"
Just now Chi Feichei said 'Teacher, Report to Police' in a cool voice, which made him think...
Cough, really, scared him to death.
