Conan: I'm Not a Psychopath
Chapter 675 - 1178 Ginkgo Leaf's Memory
Since the plan failed, the Kudo Couple didn't stay in the Small House. The Next Day, they had people move away the few pieces of Furniture and cleaned the House.
Chi Feichei didn't rush to move Things in either, and had Da Shan Mi contact people to make some changes.
There wasn't much to change in terms of Decoration. Although one Room had a Girl's Style, he would either use it as a Database or Warehouse, or let Others live in it. There was no need to start Renovation again.
He just felt that the original Lock wasn't reliable, and planned to change all the Doors and Windows, including the Lock on the Glass Door, to the best Anti-theft Lock currently available, and replace the Glass with reinforced, soundproof Tempered Glass.
When the Three People from the Junior Detective League passed by On the Way to School, they paid special attention to the House.
"That Old couple moved away, and it seems like it's been replaced by new Households again."
"It's no wonder, this House isn't very Suitable for Older People to live in."
"I Don't Know what kind of People the new tenants are. Let's Check it out again when the Time comes!"
Conan laughed dryly in his Heart and didn't plan to expose it.
If these Three Kids knew that Chi Feichei bought this Place, they would definitely be surprised.
Unfortunately, People won't be able to move in recently. According to His Mom, Chi Feichei doesn't plan to move in, saying that it's just a Foothold. It's probably Just Like how Sonoko that Fellow suddenly becomes interested in something, tries it out, and then loses interest.
Hey, these Young Miss and Young Master are really willful...
Haibara Ai heard Chi Kana talk about the House, and didn't plan to tell the Three Children in advance. She Looked at the People busy in the Courtyard and House, and walked towards the School, reminding them, "We're going to be late if we don't hurry up."
"Ah—coming!"
The Three Children quickly followed.
Over the Next two Days, Chi Feichei ran to Yokohama Chinatown twice with Kudo Yusaku, bringing back some Chinese Cuisine Cookbooks for Chi Kana, so that His Old Mom could Trouble herself with New Dish.
Chi Kana's Talent in Cuisine wasn't weak. After two Days, she could make Home-style Dishes look decent, But her control over the heat and seasoning was definitely not as Experienced as Chi Feichei, so the Flavor was a little off.
After the Students entered the Holiday, Mori Kogoro took Mouri Ran and Conan out again to cause Disaster in Other Places.
Chi Kana originally wanted to take Chi Feichei and Haibara Ai with her to learn more about Her Son's Teacher, But Chi Feichei lost interest as soon as he heard that they were going to a Shrine to pray for marriage.
Haibara Ai also agreed not to go on Tourism with the Plague God Group.
Brother Hichiji was Okay. Although he was also a Plague God, at least there was a 'Opening'. Edogawa never came back from Tourism without Trouble.
It's Better to not let the Incident Impact their Time together since Her Godmother rarely comes back.
…
Entering the beginning of November, the Weather was getting colder Day by Day.
The Three People played a Circle in the Head God Forest with the 'Forest Princess' Statue, and Chi Kana happily discussed investing in taking over the Tourism development with the locals.
The Day after the Three People returned to Tokyo, the Date jumped from the beginning of November to the end of November.
"Brother Hassashi's Birthday is in November." Haibara Ai was changing her Shoes at the Entrance.
"Yes," Chi Kana took a Dark Gray Coat with soft white Fur on the Hem to Haibara Ai and squatted down, "It's a Pity that This Year has already passed."
Aside, Chi Feichei changed his Shoes in Silence.
It was November 24th, so it had indeed passed. He was Speechless and couldn't refute it.
Could he Say that it was only November 6th yesterday and he hadn't even spent the middle of November?
Chi Kana put the Coat on Haibara Ai, Looked at it, and sighed Dissatisfied. She helped Haibara Ai take off the Coat again, "It's not as good as I imagined..."
Haibara Ai Lower Head and Looked at the Skirt she was wearing, and asked in confusion, "I Think it's Good."
"She chose something with Fur on the Edge, obviously wanting to match a cute and Warm Style," Chi Feichei Looked at Haibara Ai and put on his Dark Blue Windbreaker, "Change to the Red Coat I bought for Ai."
"Red is very cute, that's true..." Chi Kana put her Right Hand Index Finger next to her chin, imagined the matching Scene in her mind, and stood up with the Gray Coat, "We can Try it. Ai, Wait For Me."
Haibara Ai Looked up at Chi Feichei Speechless and asked softly, "Then, what's going on today? Who exactly is Godmother going to meet at the Airport that she Values so much?"
Chi Feichei Looked Towards the Bedroom, "Mother's Design Teacher from University..."
"She's also the chief Designer of a big Brand invested by the Field Group. Hassashi, she went on stage and Said something when you went to Britain a few years ago to attend the Field Group's celebration banquet," Chi Kana came out of the Bedroom with a Red Coat and a Bag printed with Ginkgo Pattern, and Smilingly Said, "As for Ai, you might not know her, But you should have heard of the Brand she created, right?"
Chi Feichei thought of someone as soon as he Saw the Bag, "Miss Kinoshita?"
"Fusae Brand?" Haibara Ai Said the Brand name at the Same Time.
"That's right. She arrived in Tokyo last Night. It's rare that We are all on Holiday, so I wanted to take you to meet her..." Chi Kana Smilingly squatted down and put the Red Coat on Haibara Ai, "Although it still doesn't feel Warm enough, it's really cute and looks energetic. It's very Suitable for Ai."
Haibara Ai tidied up the Hem of her Skirt and Said softly, "Brother Hassashi's Taste has always been Good."
Chi Feichei: "..."
If he stayed with His Old Mom for a longer Time, His Little Sister would probably become a lot more Gentle...
…
After the Three People finished Packing Up, they went Out. Vincent was still responsible for driving the Three People there, But the Destination wasn't the Airport or a Hotel, But the Forest beside Teitan Elementary School Tree-Lined Road.
After getting out of the Car, Haibara Ai Looked around, "I didn't expect that I came here this morning, and now I'm here again."
Chi Kana got out of the Car and Smilingly Said softly, "So Ai came to School early this morning."
"Because I heard that the Rabbits raised in the School were not feeling well, so I made an Appointment with Ayumi to come to School to See them," Haibara Ai was Suddenly a little embarrassed, and tried hard to maintain a Calm Face and Calm Tone, "I still have Knowledge of common Diseases of Small Animals such as Rabbits... But, did that Miss Kinoshita go to Teitan Elementary School?"
"That's right. I went to School in Japan when I was in the first grade of Elementary School..."
Under the Ginkgo Tree, a Woman with Short Blonde Hair was wearing a white Trench Coat and a Gray-Purple Hat. Her Face had the soft Outline of an Asian, and her Pupil Color was also the common Black of Asians. There were fine lines left by Time at the corners of her Eyes. She walked forward while speaking, and her Voice had some childishness. She Smilingly Greeted, "Kana."
Haibara Ai Looked at the Woman's exquisite Facial Features and felt some Sigh in her Heart.
Another Beauty, and Just Like Her Godmother, her Temperament was super Good, making her start to Suspect that the Designer Group of the Field Group, were they all high-value?
"Fusae, long time no See," Chi Kana Smilingly Responded, and Turned Head to explain to Chi Feichei and Haibara Ai, "When I first went to University, Fusae had just become a Teacher in the Design class. By the Time I graduated, I had lured her out of the School. In recent years, the Fusae Brand has become more and more popular, and We have also been busy running around, and the Time We spend together has become less and less."
Kinoshita Fusae Looked at Chi Feichei and Smilingly Said, "Young Master Hassashi has grown so big."
Chi Feichei Nodded to Kinoshita Fusae, "Miss Kinoshita."
"I was Thinking a few years ago, it would be Good if you were as Gentle as Kana. Gentle and handsome Boys are the most attractive to Girls. I didn't expect you to be more Like Mr. Shinnosuke." Kinoshita Fusae laughed and joked.
"Brother Hassashi is also very popular with Girls now." Haibara Ai couldn't help But Speak up for Her Indifference Old Brother.
"Eh?" Kinoshita Fusae bent down, moved closer to Haibara Ai, and Looked at her Curiously, "Kana, could this be your and Mr. Shinnosuke's Little Daughter secretly raised in Japan? Her Hair Color and Eyes are different from your Family, But her Expression is very Similar to Young Master Hassashi's when he was a Child."
"Yes," Chi Kana Smilingly Said, "This is Ai, Alice, the youngest Little Daughter in our Family now."
Kinoshita Fusae straightened up and joked, "I remember when you were in School, you Said that you didn't want Children at all in the future. I didn't expect you to have a second one."
"I've changed my mind now," Chi Kana wanted to put on a willful look, But her overly Gentle Tone and the soft Smile on her Face really didn't have much Lethality, so she had to give up and Look at the tall Man who walked behind Kinoshita Fusae, "Have you gotten married in the past two years?"
"No," Kinoshita Fusae quickly Smilingly Interrupted, Turned Head to Look at the Man, and introduced, "This is my Mother's remarriage partner, Billy. Billy, this is Madam Kana, and her Children, Young Master Hassashi and Miss Ai."
"Hello." Chi Kana Smilingly Greeted.
"Hello."
"Hello."
Chi Feichei and Haibara Ai followed suit, and their identical Calm Faces made Kinoshita Fusae laugh for a while.
"Hello, Madam Kana. Thank you for taking care of Miss Fusae these past few years. She has mentioned you to me many times," Billy Greeted the Three People, and Turned Head to Ask Kinoshita Fusae, "Do you want me to buy some Beverages?"
"Then please bring me a Coffee, Billy," Kinoshita Fusae Looked at the Three People of Chi Kana, "Kana, what about you?"
The Three People weren't picky and chose Coffee as well.
Billy also Asked Vincent, who was waiting in the Car, what he wanted to drink, and Asked Haibara Ai if she wanted any Snack, before Turning Around to buy Things.
Chi Kana Watched Leave Billy, Turned Around and walked to the Fence at the Back Door of Teitan Elementary School, "Fusae, you should find someone to Keep Company with you, right? Are you still waiting for your First Love Lover?"
Kinoshita Fusae followed and Said with a helpless Smile, "There's no way. I just feel that no one else can compare to him. Before I get an Answer, I'm not willing to give up."
Chi Feichei and Haibara Ai also followed, no longer blocking the way.
"Running here every ten years, expecting that Man to come here to meet him as agreed, you're being too stubborn," Chi Kana Said, Looking at Kinoshita Fusae, "I remember it started thirty years ago, right?"
"Yes," Kinoshita Fusae Looked up at the Golden Ginkgo Leaves On the Tree and Said with a Smile, "It's been more than forty years since I met him."
"You agreed to meet here, But that Person never came?" Haibara Ai couldn't help But Ask softly.
"More than thirty years ago, Fusae was still my Teacher. When I Initially Asked her if she wanted to create her own Brand and the Field Group could provide her with Funds and Connections, she refused," Chi Kana Looked at her two Children and explained softly, "She Said she would wait two more years. She would return to Japan to meet someone. If all went well, she would probably stay in Japan to be his wife. Maybe she would find a School to continue being a Teacher, or maybe she would Consider her own Brand. In short, she would wait until then to See, and couldn't give me a Promise for the Time being... And thirty years ago, she returned to Japan alone and agreed to my Proposal. At that Time, I knew she hadn't waited for that Person."
