Chapter 701 - 1204: Does His Disciple Have Friends Like This?

"What a pity!" Mouri Ran smiled and pushed open the Door. "His Goal doesn't seem to be me..."

Inside the Room, Mori Kogoro was sitting on the Sofa in a Suit, with an open Book placed on the Table in front of him. He Looked up with a deep expression and Said, "You're back, Ran. You're early today. Although you just got back, could you Trouble me by making me a Cup of Coffee? It seems that only Coffee brewed by you can awaken my Brain Cells..."

"Huh?" Suzuki Sonoko at the Entrance Looked Stunned.

Mouri Ran was also taken aback for a Bit. "Who are you imitating?"

Mori Kogoro Looked carefully at the Three People who entered, Speechless, got up, and stopped acting. He Said with Disgust, "What is it? Why is only this Wealthy People's impudent Young Miss here?"

Suzuki Sonoko immediately Looked unhappy with Half-Moon Eyes. "Impudent?"

Mouri Ran quickly Smiled and Said, "That Person of mine will be here soon!"

Conan was a Little Speechless. "Could it be that that Person wants to see Uncle?"

"Yes," Mouri Ran Smiled and Said, "He Says he's a loyal admirer of my Father!"

Mori Kogoro was still complaining. "Really, making me waste so much Time for nothing. It turned out to be you guys."

Suzuki Sonoko Looked at Mori Kogoro with Black Lines on Forehead. "But, it's Just a High School Student, why are you so enthusiastic?"

"Boy, Boy?" Mori Kogoro was Stunned. "Isn't it a High School Girl who Looks a lot like the Female Lead Rena Mizunashi (Kir)?"

When Conan heard the Name 'Rena Mizunashi (Kir)', his Face changed, and the Figures/Silhouette of Gin, Vodka, Belmode, and Raki reappeared in his Mind.

"I've made it very clear to you, right?" Mouri Ran corrected. "It's a Boy!"

Mori Kogoro immediately lost Interest. "You kept Saying 'that Child, that Child', who knew it was a Boy..."

"No..." Conan came back to his Senses and shouted with an ugly Face, "You can't, Uncle! You can't see him!"

"Uh?" Mori Kogoro Looked at Conan with Doubt.

"Knock knock..."

The Door was knocked, and Mouri Ran had already Turned Head and shouted, "Come in."

Seeing the Door Handle being turned, Conan hurriedly shouted at Mori Kogoro, who had sat back at his Desk, "Uncle..."

Eisuke Hondo, who entered the Door, bumped directly into Conan, and the Two People fell to the Ground with a 'thump'.

Conan winced in Pain.

"S-Sorry," Eisuke Hondo sat up and Reached Out to feel for his Glasses that had fallen on the Ground. "I don't Know what I tripped over..."

Conan sat up with Black Lines on Forehead.

Wasn't that bumping into a Child? Really...

Eisuke Hondo felt for his Glasses on the Ground with his Right Hand, and after Raising Hand, he touched Conan's Face, pinched it, and quickly faced Conan, kneeling and sitting upright, Scratch Head and Smiling. "It's a Pleasure to meet you, Detective Mori! It's an Honor to meet you!"

"Ah?" Conan had a Head full of Question Marks.

Eisuke Hondo Scratch Head and Smiled shyly.

"That..." Mouri Ran chuckled dryly. "That's Conan, who's staying at my Home."

"Uh?" Eisuke Hondo stretched out both Hands, probed Conan's Face, grabbed it, and pulled it.

Conan's Face was being pulled, and he Said unclearly, "Let go of me!"

"Eh?" Eisuke Hondo pulled Conan's Face, Looking bewildered, and Stared closely. "Weird..."

Suzuki Sonoko couldn't stand it anymore, Step Forward and picked up the Glasses and Hand Over To Eisuke Hondo. "Here, your Glasses!"

After a flurry of Activity, Mouri Ran introduced Mori Kogoro to Eisuke Hondo.

"I'm really sorry, it's a Pleasure to meet you, Detective Mori!" Eisuke Hondo Smiled excitedly. "M-My Name is Eisuke Hondo!"

Mori Kogoro got up from behind his Desk with a deep expression, Looked up and Smiled at Eisuke Hondo. "Hello."

"Please give me your guidance!" Eisuke Hondo gave a deep Bow, and his Forehead bumped into the Back of Head of Conan, who was standing in Front of him.

Conan suffered another Unnecessary Disaster, holding his Head and running forward. "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts..."

"Ah..." Eisuke Hondo covered his Forehead in Pain, straightened up and retreated, and his Back bumped into the Bookcase against the Wall, knocking the Cardboard Box on the Bookcase askew.

Mouri Ran, Mori Kogoro, and Suzuki Sonoko were Speechless, maintaining awkward but polite Smiles on their Faces.

Eisuke Hondo Smiled apologetically at the other People, lost his footing, and fell backwards to the Ground again.

The Cardboard Box that was tilted on the Cabinet happened to fall down, hitting Eisuke Hondo's Head with a 'thump'.

Eisuke Hondo was Stunned, closed his Eyes tightly, held his Head in both Hands, and shouted, "It hurts!"

Conan held his own Head, Looked at Eisuke Hondo with Half-Moon Eyes.

What's wrong with this Fellow?

Mori Kogoro's Corner of Mouth twitched slightly. "Now I understand why Ran would Call him 'that Child'..."

Mouri Ran gave a dry Smile. "He's Just a Little clumsy."

"I'm not clumsy!" Eisuke Hondo stood up solemnly, Looked at the Four People who were also Looking at him, and Turned Head to Look left and right.

Mori Kogoro was puzzled and Followed to Look left and right. "W-What's wrong?"

"Ah, no..." Eisuke Hondo didn't Look around anymore, and asked Mouri Ran with Doubt, "Ran, didn't you Say Brother Hichiji is Detective Mori's Eldest Disciple? Didn't he Come Over?"

Huh?

Conan Looked at Eisuke Hondo in Surprise.

Why did he suddenly mention Chi Hassashi? Does this Fellow, who Looks a lot like Rena Mizunashi (Kir), also Know Chi Hassashi?

Also, why does he Call him 'Brother Hichiji' like Ran and the others, really!

"You Know Hassashi?" Mori Kogoro sized up Eisuke Hondo, and the cold Face and cold Purple Eyes of his Disciple appeared in his Mind, giving him a Jolt.

Does his Disciple Have Friends Like This?

"When Eisuke just transferred to school and went to the Infirmary to fill out a form, Brother Hichiji happened to be at Doctor Niide's place," Mouri Ran explained to Mori Kogoro. "They've met."

Eisuke Hondo Scratch Head and Smiled. "When I almost fell or bumped into Things in the Infirmary, Brother Hichiji Helped me hold me back. I'm very Thank to him."

Conan Realized that Chi Hassashi did go to Niide Tomoaki to get a Letter Few Days Ago, and Chi Hassashi was indeed very Fast sometimes. When they almost bumped into Things because they weren't Looking at the Road, he could 'swoosh' and pull them back...

Mori Kogoro Looked at the Cardboard Box that had fallen on the Ground with all the Things spilled out, and Said Speechless, "If Hassashi was here, it would Probably be a Little better."

"No way, Father! It was Sonoko and I who Said not to let her Call Brother Hichiji," Mouri Ran Said solemnly, then Turned Head and Smiled apologetically at Eisuke Hondo. "Sorry, Eisuke, I didn't Know you wanted to see Brother Hichiji, But Brother Hichiji fell into the Sea Before, and when the Weather was Cold Before, he had a Cold for more than ten Days in a row. Because the High Fever didn't Subsided, he was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit. The Doctor Said it might be Aftereffects of that time he fell into the Sea. If the Weather is too Cold, he might have Fever or other Lung and Respiratory Infection Symptoms. The Weather is too Cold today, and I'm worried that he'll get sick again if he runs out and gets blown by the Cold Wind..."

"I See, then don't Call him to Go Out. I don't Have anything to do with him," Eisuke Hondo paused and Said softly with a Sigh, "Brother Hichiji is really not Easy, he seems to need more Care than me."

Mori Kogoro choked, wanting to Ask, 'Boy, who gave you the Illusion'?

Mouri Ran Smiled awkwardly. "Rather than Saying that Brother Hichiji needs Care, it's better to Say that he takes Care of us more."

"His Skill is even more Intense than Ran's," Suzuki Sonoko Looked at Eisuke Hondo's small Body. "He can easily beat you ten times over, who needs Care?"

Eisuke Hondo was Stunned. "R-Really..."

Speaking of Chi Hassashi's Mental Illness, he also intends to go to the Psychiatry Department. Speaking of Chi Hassashi getting sick when the Weather is Cold, he Should get sick before Chi Hassashi, and he will also bump into Things... Then there seems to be nothing to Say.

Conan was secretly observing Eisuke Hondo.

The Other Party and That Organization are Not Necessarily unrelated, so is mentioning Chi Hassashi an Accident?

Or Rather, does the Other Party want to probe what they thought about Chi Hassashi's High Fever Last Time?

That's Not Necessarily impossible, because when it comes to Care, he remembers that when Chi Hassashi had a High Fever, Belmode was taking Care of him at Chi Hassashi's Home.

"Sorry, to bother you..."

At the Entrance, a Man wearing a thick cotton coat Raised Hand and knocked on the Door.

"Eh? Is it the Client?" Eisuke Hondo's Eyes lit up, and he rushed forward again recklessly.

Then, there was another flurry of Activity.

Conan, who was implicated: "..."

He's overthinking it, how could this Fellow be a Person from That Organization.

If he wants to pretend to be clumsy to Paralyze them, then he's pretending too much.

After A Group of People listened to what the Man Said, they accepted the Man's Commission and drove to Gunma Prefecture.

The Sparrow squatting in the Detective Agency Followed the Car for a Distance, stopped at the Intersection on the Road to Gunma, Turned Around and went back to find its Companion to exchange Intelligence, and then passed the Intelligence to Chi Hassashi.

Beika Town Apartment Building.

Chi Hassashi was sitting on the Balcony, drinking Fresh Blood he had swindled from Koizumi Akako, and Lower Head to Look at the Intelligence on his Mobile Phone.

Because they're worried about his Respiratory and Lung Infection, they're not bringing him along...

Speaking of which, The Boss also sent him an Email, Saying that the Weather has been Cold Recently, and there's nothing for him to do in the Action, so he Should honestly stay at Home.

Chi Hassashi put down his Mobile Phone and added some Liquor to his Cup.

If he doesn't Go Out, then he won't Go Out. He's too lazy to sneak out, and blowing the Wind on the Street is not as good as blowing the Wind on the Balcony.

"Master, the Things have been brought back!"

Feimo grabbed a blue-Black Metal Box the Size of a Ring Box, greeted him, quickly swept across the Balcony, and after entering the House, placed the Metal Box on the Floor. Feeling the Heating Temperature in the House, he shivered, and the Fur on his Body Explode A Bit. "It's really Cold today."

Nameless jumped off the Sofa, ran to the Front of the Metal Box, and stretched out his Head to sniff.

"Nameless, don't touch that Box," Sawada Hiroki's Voice came from the Computer. "The Box has a Dangerous Mechanism."

Nameless didn't approach anymore, took a Step back, squatted down, and Looked up expectantly at Chi Hassashi who came in.

After Chi Hassashi put his Mobile Phone and Wine Glass on the Table, he bent down and picked up the Box that Feimo had placed on the Ground. "Noah, start recording Information."

"Okay, Godfather."

The Computer Screen lit up, and Sawada Hiroki's Figure/Silhouette appeared on the Computer Screen. "Since Nameless, Feimo, Feichi, and Xiao Mei are all here, let them Confirm Godfather's Identity first."
