Chapter 234: Conan: The Comparison Shows the Gap...
Chi Feichei also led Haibara Ai inside, explaining, "It's Officer Shiratori's younger sister's Wedding Banquet, not a Wedding. It's just a small-scale Banquet."
Haibara Ai nodded, then asked, "Then there should be many Police Officers, right?"
"Uh-huh," Chi Feichei got on the Elevator. "It should be said that about sixty percent of the people are related to the police force."
Today definitely wouldn't be peaceful, but there were rarely peaceful times when Conan was around. Bringing Haibara Ai to have some fun might as well be good, otherwise, wouldn't he be the Same as his Parents who were so busy they Disappeared?
"Of the remaining forty percent, a Portion are the groom and bride's Classmates and Friends," Morizono Kikuto took over the conversation and introduced. "Also, the Bride, Miss Shiratori Sara, is a prospective Lawyer, so there are also some Elites from the legal profession. The Groom, Mr. Harutsuki Kotaro, is a Painter who currently doesn't have much Reputation, so he doesn't have many Friends. The rest are some Celebrities from various fields."
Although the Shiratori Group couldn't compare to the Suzuki Foundation or the Shinchi Group, it was still stronger than the Senyuan Family. There were indeed quite a few Celebrities among the invited Guests.
"But with so many Police Officers, the Atmosphere will definitely be very solemn, right?" Haibara Ai said leisurely.
"You Say it right," Odagiri Toshiya gave Recognition. "Especially with a certain Old Man who doesn't smile all year round! If Not for Keeping Company with them, I wouldn't be willing to Come Over!"
Haibara Ai: "..."
This Fellow's Relationship with his Old Dad is really bad...
"You Guy, you clearly wanted to come yourself, Otherwise, how could you have agreed to Come Over so actively?" Morizono Kikuto smiled, then said seriously, "But Recently, a Police Officer was killed by Gunshot Killing, so the Atmosphere might indeed not be very good..."
Haibara Ai Be Stunned, and examined Odagiri Toshiya again. So he was a Fellow who said one thing but meant another.
Ding!
The Elevator reached the 15th Floor, and the Door Opened.
A Group of People got off the Elevator. Chi Feichei, Odagiri Toshiya, and Morizono Kikuto signed the List.
Haibara Ai was still a child and was considered Chi Feichei's Family Members, so there was No Need to sign. She poked her head out and took a Glance.
Uh-huh, her Brother Hichiji's Character was still the best-looking, Upright and steady, yet elegant...
The four of them had Nothing to deposit, so they Directly entered the Venue.
There were already quite a few people in the Venue with fierce-looking faces who were clearly Police Officers at first glance. This wasn't a particularly retro Banquet, and no one wore overly cumbersome court dresses, but they were all wearing Formal Wear.
Chi Feichei Looked around and indeed saw many Acquaintances.
The Three People first Greeted Ninzaburo Shiratori, then temporarily separated.
"Brother Chi, you've come too!" Inspector Megure Turned Head to Greet him. His originally somewhat heavy Expression softened considerably when he Saw Haibara Ai, and he Be Stunned for a moment. "Ai is very cute Today!"
And this was just the beginning...
Sato Miwako: "Hey, Ai is so cute Today!"
Wataru Takagi: "Hahaha... Yes, she is..."
Then, several Police Officers chatting Beside them paid attention.
"What a cute Little Girl!"
"Yes, yes..."
Haibara Ai's outfit Today indeed made her look well-behaved and cute. Being Staring at, she felt very uncomfortable and silently Hid a bit Behind Chi Feichei.
There was a Group of strange uncles here...
Suzuki Sonoko, who arrived at the Venue a bit later, Saw Chi Feichei in All Black, emitting a Calm Aura, at a Glance. She then noticed the shy Little Girl Beside him. She Stepped Forward and only then recognized Haibara Ai, laughing out loud. "Pfft... So it's this Kid with an Indifference face. She's super cute Today, yeah!"
Haibara Ai was numb from hearing it. She looked at Conan and the others who Followed her with a Calm face.
"Teacher Mouri." Chi Feichei Greeted Mori Kogoro.
Mori Kogoro looked at that Calm face, constantly Teasing in his Heart, 'Why would I meet him here?', 'Originally, with a Group of Police Officers, the Air Pressure was already low enough', 'But... Never Mind, After All, he's my Disciple, I don't dislike him'...
On his face, he didn't Reveal a bit, Nodding with a solemn face, "You've come too."
Eh?
Kisaki Eri also Turned Head with some surprise, looking at Mori Kogoro's serious Profile. Her Gaze was dazed for a moment. This Fellow, like back then, is also very handsome when he's serious... Ptooey!
However, it was truly surprising. After getting a Disciple, did he know that as a Teacher, he should pay attention to his Appearance?
He didn't improve much even after becoming a Father, but he's corrected himself after becoming a Teacher?
"Really, Ai is very cute Today, oh," Mouri Ran bent down and said Smilingly to Haibara Ai, then Straightened up again and introduced to Chi Feichei, "Brother Hichiji, This Is my Mother."
"Hello, I am Kisaki Eri. I heard Ran mention you," Kisaki Eri Reached Out and shook hands with Chi Feichei, Smiled and said, "Previously, I also fought lawsuits for the Shinchi Group, but speaking of which, this is the First Time we've met, right?"
Indeed, it was the First Time they met.
Chi Feichei had a Calm face, "Teacher's Wife, hello, I am Chi Feichei."
Kisaki Eri Be Stunned for a moment, then Said Smilingly, "You can just call me Lawyer Fei, there's No Need to be associated with some rotten Old Man!"
Conan: "..."
Before complaining, can you first put away the smile in your eyes that you can't hide?
But this Fellow Chi Feichei is really...
Quietly, is he this Cunning?
"Hey hey, I say, you Woman..." Mori Kogoro said with dissatisfaction.
"I don't want to leave a bad Impression on Others, is that not allowed?" Kisaki Eri retorted a Sentence, Turned Head to Look at Chi Feichei, "In short, just call me Lawyer Fei."
Chi Feichei was Still Calm, "Okay, Teacher's Wife."
Mori Kogoro: "..."
Mouri Ran: "..."
Suzuki Sonoko: "..."
Kisaki Eri was speechless for a moment, and turned her head away, "Okay, just call me whatever you're used to calling me."
Mouri Ran couldn't help but laugh, and secretly gave Chi Feichei a Thumb up. Well done!
Mori Kogoro Looked up and Saw Chief Odagiri. "Eh? It's Chief Odagiri, I'll go Greet him!"
"Who is it?" Mouri Ran asked with Doubt.
"Chief Odagiri," Kisaki Eri introduced, "When that incompetent Detective was a Police Officer, he was still the head of the Criminal Investigation Division. Now he has Already been promoted to Chief of the Criminal Investigation Department."
Haibara Ai pulled on Chi Feichei's Hem and asked in a low voice, "That Fellow's Father?"
Chi Feichei Nodded.
"What about us?" Haibara Ai Looked up and Asked Chi Feichei.
"There's No Need, Kid," Suzuki Sonoko came over Carrying a plate of Dessert, and said smilingly, "Only Others come to Greet Brother Hichiji. Of Course, I do too, but Seeing that we are with Acquaintances, Others won't casually come to disturb us."
Haibara Ai: "..."
Evil Capital, evil class...
*Clap!*
The Lights in the Venue were turned off, and a beam of Lamplight shone on the Entrance. The Groom and Bride walked in Smilingly. When the Lamplight brightened, close Friends Stepped Forward to toast and give their Blessing.
As For the Others, they didn't really get involved.
"Mr. Chi, Mr. Mouri..." Ninzaburo Shiratori came over Bringing a Man.
Mori Kogoro Turned Around and Smiled and said, "Congratulations! Congratulations!"
"Congratulations." Chi Feichei also wasn't stingy with saying a blessing.
"On behalf of my Younger Sister, I Thank the two of you," Ninzaburo Shiratori bowed gracefully, and also introduced the Man Beside him, "By the Way, let me introduce you. This is my Attending Doctor. He is a Psychologist from Haido Yakushino Hospital, Kazato."
The Man had a gentle and refined Appearance, and there was a tear Mole at the corner of his Eye. He Reached Out and shook hands with Mori Kogoro and Chi Feichei one by one, "My surname is Kazato, pleased to meet you."
"Chi Feichei." Chi Feichei's Self-introduction was always concise. He Patted Ai's Head. "My Younger Sister Ai."
Haibara Ai had a Calm face, "Hello."
"My surname is Mori," Mori Kogoro also introduced the Others, "This is my wife Eri and my daughter Ran. As for this Kid, he is Conan who is staying at my Home."
Conan: "..."
Uncle, please Look at how Haibara was introduced, okay?
The Comparison shows the gap...
My young Heart suffered Damage...
Kisaki Eri Asked Ninzaburo Shiratori, "By the Way, Officer Shiratori, are you seeing a Psychologist?"
"Yes, Actually, being a Police Officer involves encountering many annoying Matters. I also had no choice," Ninzaburo Shiratori said, approaching Mori Kogoro and saying in a low voice, "Mr. Mouri, I think you should also make time to go see one."
"That's also true, in my Memory Recently..." Mori Kogoro had a Thoughtful face, then Realized, and Roared at Ninzaburo Shiratori, "Nonsense! What do you mean by that?"
Aside, Kisaki Eri and Mouri Ran snickered.
Conan laughed especially loudly, and as a result, was hit with a 'duang' Punch.
"No matter what, it's not your turn to laugh at me!" Mori Kogoro said irritably.
"Doctor Fukuyama is also very good." Haibara Ai spoke up for an Acquaintance.
"When he comes back from exchange Study, I can bring him to introduce." Chi Feichei agreed.
These Words were Of Course a Joke. With Zhi Ming Fukuyama's Reputation in the industry, he didn't need to deliberately get to know anyone, nor did he have time to Follow Chi Feichei to Banquets.
Aoyama Fourth Hospital is not somewhere just any Psychologist can enter...
Mori Kogoro gave Chi Feichei and Haibara Ai Half-Moon Eyes. "Hey, I'm talking about you guys, the one who needs to know Doctor Kazato is you, Hissashi, you Kid!"
"Also Correct," Ninzaburo Shiratori, with a good Temper, Looked Towards Chi Feichei, "I heard that Mr. Chi's Attending Doctor went abroad for exchange Study. If you have time, you can Go Together with me to find Doctor Kazato and chat a bit, how about it?"
"Can." Chi Feichei Looked at Kazato Kyosuke and Nodded. This guy is probably the Criminal this time.
Pity, although there is a Bounty, Same as Scorpio, he is facing the Problem of 'How do you prove he is the Murderer?'. The Money is not even as much as Scorpio, who has a global Bounty. The cost-effectiveness is very low, so he doesn't really want to bother Considering the Capture.
He Guessed the Police just wanted to Check if he had any Clues, For Example, knowing the Inside Information of a certain Incident that might be related to it.
Conan was a bit surprised. He Thought Chi Feichei should not like Psychologists, so why did he agree?
Haibara Ai was Silent for a moment, and Suddenly wanted to light a candle for this Doctor Kazato. Encountering a Patient like Chi Feichei, if your level isn't high enough, it's very Dangerous...
"Wait, I'll excuse myself for a moment!" Mori Kogoro Saw that Inspector Megure and Wataru Takagi were leaving, and hastily Followed them. "Inspector Megure!"
"Excuse me." Chi Feichei said a Sentence, and also intended to Go Over and Listen To the Situation.
Conan Decisively Followed, and Haibara Ai also Speechless Followed.
Inspector Megure was called out to, "Brother Mori?"
"How is the Investigation of the Matters going?" Mori Kogoro Asked in a low voice.
"Very sorry, I don't want to talk about this Matter." Inspector Megure Directly refused and left.
Mori Kogoro choked, "Why does he always not want to talk to me?"
He was a Police Officer Previously, and he also really Cared About the Matter of a Police Officer being killed by Gunshot Killing, okay?
