Chapter 18 - Chapter 18: Please Calculate Our Chances of Survival

While Mamiya Mitsuru was torn about whether to leave or not, Chi Feichi and Kuroba Kaito proposed going out for a trip first.

"Will you come back tonight?" Mamiya Mitsuru asked.

"No, we'll be out for two days this time," Chi Feichi said.

Kuroba Kaito made up an excuse casually. "I plan to go back first. He will send me to Tokyo and look around along the way..."

In fact, they intended to go to a party organized by a chat room of magic enthusiasts.

These past few days, Kuroba Kaito and Chi Feichi had saved each other's phone numbers and added each other's chat accounts. Kuroba Kaito also didn't forget to pull Chi Feichi into various chat rooms, even the chat room where he and all his good friends were.

In Kuroba Kaito's mind, Chi Feichi was the only successor of his father besides himself, at least in terms of the art of disguise.

His dad might have taught others, but he wasn't familiar with them, and he didn't even know how many people his dad had taught. Anyway, Chi Feichi was the only one he had pulled in and approved of.

He would participate in this party as Kaitou Kid. If later someone learned from Mamiya Mitsuru that a high school student went to that party, and among the party attendees there were no high school students but an extra Kaitou Kid, it would be very easy to deduce that he, the high school student, was Kaitou Kid.

So he didn't intend to tell Mamiya Mitsuru the truth. Besides, he had taught everything he should teach, and he really needed to go back to school this time.

"Then what if the hospital calls?" Mamiya Mitsuru rubbed the space between his eyebrows.

Going out was troublesome, and staying here was also troublesome.

He was anxious and suffered from insomnia...

"Just perfunctorily deal with it as usual," Chi Feichi said nonchalantly.

"Okay, I have experience," Mamiya Mitsuru tried to cheer up; it was also a good thing to send one away. "Go if you want to go. Do you want me to drive you to Tokyo?"

"No need, we plan to do cross-country training, just walking there will do," Chi Feichi said.

Mamiya Mitsuru didn't want to care too much. "Give me a call when you arrive..."

"Don't worry," Kuroba Kaito smiled and raised his hand to pat Chi Feichi's shoulder. "I will take good care of this guy!"

Mamiya Mitsuru wanted to ask, 'Who is taking care of whom?', but these two were probably about the same. He waved his hand weakly. "Remember to bring antivenom serum..."

On the road.

Chi Feichi rented a car and prepared to drive over. He had a driver's license, and driving by himself would be more convenient.

In the back seat of the car, Kuroba Kaito was busy with disguise. "Uncle Mamiya doesn't seem to be in very good spirits recently. The weather here is so cold, Feichi will only wrap around your arm quietly, there's no need to bring antivenom serum at all, he didn't even think of this... Do you think he is too disappointed because we can't solve the puzzle?"

"Maybe." Chi Feichi didn't care what Mamiya Mitsuru thought. Having trained continuously for some time, he also wanted to come out and relax.

Although according to the situation, a certain death god elementary school student would be present, and a case would happen, seeing the protagonist group and the snowy scenery could also be considered a distraction...

Kuroba Kaito had already disguised himself as a young fat man. "Are you really not going to disguise yourself?"

"No need," Chi Feichi said. "I choose to keep my distance from you."

"You are too cruel..." Kuroba Kaito pretended to be resentful.

"You want to use Kaitou Kid's identity to encourage the family of the deceased Mr. Harui Fuden," Chi Feichi exposed him. "Kaitou Kid is a famous magician. The recognition of this identity is much heavier than that of a high school student, and it will also be a comfort to his family. As long as I keep my distance from you, your revealing Kaitou Kid's identity won't implicate me, so there's no need to waste time and energy to disguise. Aren't we also pretending not to know each other in the chat room?"

"Pretending not to know each other is to tease them, but you guy really see through everything..." Kuroba Kaito sighed. "Mr. Harui's death is really a pity, but since he passed away, his family should be using his chat account 'Ikasama Douji'. They also agreed to come to the party this time, probably his family will come. Mr. Harui's accident also has our reason..."

"It's your reason," Chi Feichi corrected. "I hadn't joined the chat room at that time."

Kuroba Kaito choked. "Don't be so serious. And, actually, it's okay to disguise and go there together, as Kaitou Kid's assistant..."

"Better not," Chi Feichi said. "When you run, can the hang glider carry two people flying?"

Kuroba Kaito smiled confidently. "Two people, a piece of cake!"

"I still have forty catties of weights on me," Chi Feichi reminded. "Student Kuroba, please recalculate the probability of an accident for the two of us, don't forget to add the probability of strong winds in the deep mountains during this period and the level of the wind. In addition, you can also calculate by the way, if an accident happens in that environment, what are our chances of survival."

The smile on Kuroba Kaito's face froze. "Okay, then go over pretending to be strangers..."

"Since you have finished disguising, go rent a car yourself later," Chi Feichi said. "I'll take you to a place where you can rent a car."

"Hey hey, no way," Kuroba Kaito couldn't help saying. "Just say my car broke down on the road, and I stopped your car, you take me over by the way, isn't it okay?"

"No, the traces of the car on the road, the traces you left on the back seat of the car, the time, and the answer when faced with questioning may all become loopholes," Chi Feichi insisted. If Conan hadn't gone, he wouldn't be so careful. "After you get out of the car later, I will also clean up the traces you left. Don't act too familiar when you get there. I won't talk much to you. The more I say, the more mistakes I make."

Kuroba Kaito was speechless for a moment, too careful and cautious... simply frantic!

Then he was found a place by Chi Feichi and driven off the car.

Deep mountains, snowy plains, suspension bridge, villa.

The cold and refreshing wind blew the accumulated snow off the trees. A person walked across the suspension bridge, stepping on the snow step by step. It was indeed a place with a great artistic conception.

And when others opened the door for the disguised Kuroba Kaito as Doi Takatsuki, looking at Chi Feichi walking steadily in simple black clothes step by step, they also felt it was a picture with a great artistic conception.

Only Kuroba Kaito had black lines on his head, a bit regretting why he didn't disguise himself handsomer. Hmm, maybe he could consider a performance like a person in a snowy painting next time stealing gems...

"Ah, welcome, welcome!" When Chi Feichi arrived at the door, the villa owner Ara Yoshinori said with a smile on his face. "Come in and sit down first. I am the owner of this house, Ara Yoshinori. In the chat group, I am called 'The Taciturn Ventriloquist'. You are..."

"Let's guess first!" The girl with glasses proposed actively and started to count. "Those who haven't arrived yet are 'Magician's Apprentice', 'Shadow Master', the chat room leader 'Escape King', 'Scarecrow', and 'Vanishing Bunny'. Five more people, really hard to guess..."

A group of people chatted while entering the door.

"I think it's simple," another mature woman smiled. "'Magician's Apprentice' is definitely a girl, 'Vanishing Bunny' should also be a girl, and 'Escape King' as the leader of the chat room, everyone can guess his style a bit, feel he won't be the 'Escape King'. Then only 'Shadow Master' and 'Scarecrow' are left..."

"You are 'Scarecrow', right?" The girl with glasses looked forward to it.

Previously in the chat room, 'Shadow Master' had said a lot of strange things. She didn't hope that the handsome guy who came was that neurotic guy.

"I also think he is 'Scarecrow'. Although 'Scarecrow' joined the chat room recently, he doesn't talk much usually. This feature is too obvious. I guessed early that he should be a relatively cool person," Ara Yoshinori led the group to sit down, turned his head with a smile and asked Chi Feichi. "Are we right?"

Chi Feichi nodded. "I am indeed 'Scarecrow', my real name is Chi Feichi."

"I am 'Red Herring'," Kuroba Kaito's disguised fat man smiled kindly. "My name is Doi Takatsuki. Originally, I wanted you to guess who we are, but you didn't join the chat room for long. Letting you guess seems a bit too difficult."

"I am 'Phantom'," the girl with glasses pointed at herself and laughed. "My name is Kuroda Naoko. This is Tanaka Kikue, she is 'Ikasama Douji'. Didn't expect it to be a girl, right? We were also surprised when we knew!"

Not long after, 'Vanishing Bunny' also arrived. Different from other people's guesses that it was a woman, it was a pure man.

After waiting for a while, Kuroba Kaito ran to the second floor to see the snow scene. Chi Feichi sat aside listening to the group chat.

Those who came after that were 'Magician's Apprentice' Suzuki Sonoko, who also brought Mouri Kogoro, Mouri Ran, and Conan trio.

Chi Feichi didn't rush to join the fun. Listening to other people introduce themselves over at the entrance, he finished the tea in his cup before getting up and going over.

"That... Doi Ta..." Suzuki Sonoko was a bit looking forward to it. "Ah, it's 'Red Herring', hasn't he arrived yet?"

"He has arrived, on the second floor," Tanaka Kikue said.

Kuroda Naoko heard the noise and turned back, smiling. "Ah, coming!"

Suzuki Sonoko looked forward to it, watching the round 'Doi Takatsuki' come down, her face instantly stiffened.

"You are 'Magician's Apprentice', right?" Kuroba Kaito greeted with a smile. "I am Doi Takatsuki!"

"No way..."

Suzuki Sonoko murmured, the handsome guy in her fantasy... gone!

"I knew you were a girl, great!" Kuroba Kaito still smiled, even with a trace of excitement.

Suzuki Sonoko could only laugh dryly.

"Ah, by the way, 'Scarecrow' is also here," Kuroda Naoko turned her head and saw Chi Feichi come out, smiling and teasing. "Before we all thought it was a very serious middle-aged uncle, but the result was completely unexpected!"

Ding~

Suzuki Sonoko's eyes lit up.

Hmm?

Conan's pupils shrunk.

Although not everyone wearing black clothes needs attention, that indifferent expression and emotionless eyes, and that very simple calm temperament...

Could it be...

Chi Feichi noticed Conan's wary gaze and instantly pale little face: "..."

Haibara Ai, Numabuchi Kiichiro, and now Conan, already three...

In those violent groups, there are also many people dressed in black with eyes fiercer than him, right?

Black clothes are not contracted by the winery. Why do these people like to think of him in the direction of winery employees?

The reactions are still so big, poisonous!

Conan was numb by that indifferent glance and smiled stiffly.

Chi Feichi speechlessly looked away and said to Suzuki Sonoko, "Hello, my name is Chi Feichi."
