Chapter 32: I Can Treat It, Endure It, and Don't Disturb the Neighbors
Seeing Chi Feichi directly attack, Kuroba Kaito quickly dodged to the side, still a bit bewildered.
"Whoa, whoa, you're not really going to fight, are you?"
He had seen Chi Feichi train, but he hadn't expected Chi Feichi's speed to skyrocket like this after removing his Weights!
While closing the distance, Chi Feichi used his free left hand to swipe two Gadgets from under Kuroba Kaito's white suit, and also stuffed a Paper Strip over.
Kuroba Kaito felt Chi Feichi's small movements, feeling puzzled, but still used the dodge to take advantage of the momentum and leap out of the Building to the side, opening his Hang Glider in mid-air and flying away.
Chi Feichi, having lost his Goal and overshot, also grabbed the iron railing on the overpass as he fell, flipping onto it nimbly.
From facing each other, to passing each other, to falling separately, and then to escaping danger, it only took a few seconds.
Hattori Heiji and Conan didn't even have time to blink, and the exchange was already over.
For the first time, he felt... his mind could barely keep up with the changing situation.
Hattori Heiji slowly regained his senses, sweating, "Kudo, just what kind of guy is that..."
Conan didn't say anything. He knew Hattori Heiji just wanted to complain. He wanted to know the answer to that question too, okay?
With that kind of skill, plus Reasoning Ability and observation skills, no matter how you look at it, he wouldn't be an ordinary person...
If it weren't for the fact that many things at Aoyama Fourth Hospital could be investigated and clarified, he would almost suspect that it was actually some kind of secret training base.
Hissashi propped himself up at their feet, tilting his head.
"Kudo?"
"Aren't you going to notify Police Officer Nakamori to transfer people?" Chi Feichi turned his head and asked.
"Right! I almost forgot!" Hattori Heiji quickly took out his Mobile Phone.
Conan also ran to the railing, using his Glasses to track Phantom Thief Kid's figure, but by the time he found him, Phantom Thief Kid had already jumped out of the Window of the Building over there holding a Box, "Too late, he should have gotten it already..."
"We'll chase after him!" Hattori Heiji immediately turned around, running into the Elevator parked on the Rooftop while making a Phone Call.
Chi Feichi didn't follow, jumping off the overpass and walking to his Weights, "I need to pack up my Things, chasing people is up to you guys."
"Leave it to us!" Hattori Heiji waited for Conan to enter the Elevator, then hurriedly pressed the button for the First Floor.
...
An hour later...
On the Roadside not far from the Seaside, Hattori Heiji was lying prone on the roadside.
Chi Feichi, who had arrived, lifted Hattori Heiji's ankle and checked it, "Sprain, Joint Dislocation."
Conan glanced at the Time on his Mobile Phone, "Hattori, hang in there, the Ambulance should be here soon!"
"I can treat it." As Chi Feichi spoke, he took off Conan's Outerwear, and then took out Money and handed it to Conan, "Conan, go buy Medicine and Gauze for treating external injuries, the cut on your arm is quite deep."
Conan was sweating, "Hey, I said you..."
Hattori Heiji was about to speak, but his words were blocked back by Conan's Outerwear that Chi Feichi handed over.
"Bite down on this, it will hurt a bit," Chi Feichi said, "It's the middle of the night, don't disturb the neighbors."
Hattori Heiji, biting on the Outerwear, was dumbfounded. The first sentence was okay, but listening to the second sentence, were those words something a person would say?
However, looking at Chi Feichi's posture, was he going to directly treat him?
Could this guy really do it...?
Wait, stop! He wants to wait for the Doc...
*Crack.*
A soft sound of Bone echoed.
Hattori Heiji's face instantly turned green.
Pain!
Before he could resist, there was another sound.
*Crack.*
"Alright, it won't hurt so much soon." Chi Feichi put Hattori Heiji's Foot down.
Although Veterinary Medicine didn't teach these things, in his previous life, he had been hammered by his Teacher since he was a child, and sparring with a group of Classmates also involved hammering each other until they were down. He specialized in treating Traumatic Injury, Joint Dislocation for more than ten years.
If he had Traditional Chinese Medicine, prescribing some Traumatic Injury Medicine wine and plaster wouldn't be a problem.
In his previous life, he had seen the treatment of Joint Dislocation in an American Hospital. A group of Doctors and Nurses pulled for a long time before they could pull it back into place, and then put on a Splint.
In the same Situation, for Traditional Chinese Medicine, reduction might just be a matter of two moves, one press and one lift, easily done.
For some old Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners and those Teachers in his School, they might not have seen any Anatomy Chart, but in this aspect, they absolutely left Western medicine streets behind...
"There's Bruise from the sprain, do you want me to help you treat it? It will hurt a little more than just now..."
"N-No need, thank you..." Hattori Heiji lay lying prone on the ground, tears streaming down his face...
Life was hopeless!
He was very worried about whether he could still walk in the future...
Chi Feichi shook his head. If he didn't need it, then he didn't need it. He said to Conan, who was stunned to the side, "Don't stand there stunned, go buy Medicine."
Conan sympathetically glanced at Hattori Heiji, turned around, and ran to buy Medicine.
It was all his fault for not reacting in time to stop Chi Feichi. Now it was all over, it was already too late.
However, when the Ambulance came, he would explain the Situation to the Doctor in time!
When Conan returned, Hattori Heiji was already sitting up.
"It really doesn't hurt anymore!" Hattori Heiji sat on the Roadside with a look of novelty, "Can I stand up now?"
"You can," Chi Feichi squatted beside Hattori Heiji, "But it will still hurt before the sprain swelling goes down."
Hattori Heiji immediately dispelled the idea of standing up and taking two steps.
"Hattori?" Conan walked forward.
"You're back, did you buy the Medicine?" Hattori Heiji completely lacked the hopeless look from just now, explaining spiritedly, "It hasn't been long since you left, but I already feel like it doesn't hurt as much as before."
"Don't worry, go to the Hospital for an examination, and the Bone will definitely be restored too." Chi Feichi took the Medicine Conan handed over, helped Hattori Heiji clean the bloody cut on his arm, applied Medicine, and bandaged it.
His movements were skilled and fast.
"Thanks." Hattori Heiji moved his arm and pulled down his sleeve to cover it.
"No problem," Chi Feichi took the Pigeon from Conan's arms, and then quickly checked the Pigeon's injury next to it, starting to clean the feathers around it, "There is a graze, not shallow, but after cleaning and bandaging it, it will be fine after a while."
Hattori Heiji watched curiously from the side. He was really skilled. This Chi Feichi must be a Doctor with superb medical skills, "Mr. Chi, are you studying medicine?"
Chi Feichi lowered his head to clean the Pigeon's wound, "Studying Veterinary Medicine."
"Ve-Veterinary Medicine?!" Hattori Heiji looked at the Pigeon, then at his own ankle and arm, feeling that something was strange.
Conan could only laugh dryly. Actually, he was still a little worried about Hattori Heiji's Foot...
Hattori Heiji was depressed for a while, but thinking of Chi Feichi's skills, he didn't dwell on those things anymore, "Right, I forgot to tell you, Phantom Thief Kid was sniped..."
Hissashi suddenly poked his head out from Chi Feichi's collar, startling Hattori Heiji.
"Hey, it doesn't want to eat this Pigeon, does it?"
"No." Chi Feichi pressed Hissashi's head back into his collar, continuing to treat the White Pigeon's injury, "And then what?"
Hattori Heiji looked at Chi Feichi's casual interaction with the Snake, feeling very strange, and turned his gaze away, trying not to look, "Phantom Thief Kid fell into the sea, whereabouts unknown, the Police have already sent people to look for him."
Speaking of this, Conan also held his Mobile Phone up to Chi Feichi, so that Chi Feichi could also see the scene photos he had taken, "Hattori rode a Motorcycle to take me to chase after him, he was knocked down by a car midway, when I arrived there, only this Pigeon, broken Monocle, and a broken Box were left on the ground. The Egg of Recollection from the Box will be brought over by the Police later..."
Chi Feichi bandaged the Pigeon, placed it aside, and glanced at the Photo, "The broken shape of the Lens doesn't look like it was smashed."
Hattori Heiji also leaned forward to look at the Photo, "Indeed, part of the Lens is still remaining in the Glasses Frame, the broken part is radial, and the fragments on the ground around it are slender, which means..."
"The other party aimed at Phantom Thief Kid's right eye and fired," Conan pondered and continued, "Intending to shoot in from the right eye and hit the brain? But there is no bloodstain on the Lens, indicating that Phantom Thief Kid was not shot in the eye by the Bullet, and is not in mortal danger, at most just a graze."
Hissashi, shrinking under Chi Feichi's Clothes, breathed a long sigh of relief, "Scared me to death..."
"That guy is not that easy to kill." Chi Feichi said, mainly to comfort Hissashi.
Conan nodded, and then raised a question, "But who exactly would attack him? And this kind of sniping to kill, is it someone Phantom Thief Kid has offended?"
"It's also possible because of this Egg," Chi Feichi guided, "When Phantom Thief Kid went to steal the Egg, the other party didn't attack, it wasn't until Phantom Thief Kid was about to leave that the other party sniped, although it can't be ruled out that the other party deduced the trajectory of the Hang Glider through the Wind direction and ambushed in advance, but I am more inclined to believe that the other party was also tracking Phantom Thief Kid, of course, this is just a guess."
"And then seeing that Phantom Thief Kid was about to successfully steal the Egg and escape, the other party shot to stop him?" Conan stroked his chin and pondered, "Then the other party's Goal is likely not to let Phantom Thief Kid steal the Egg..."
"The people who don't want Phantom Thief Kid to steal this Egg are the Police and the Suzuki Foundation, but it's impossible for the Police and the Suzuki Foundation to do this kind of thing," Hattori Heiji also followed the line of thought to analyze, "Then it can only be someone who wants to get this Egg and has the Opportunity!"
"If they wanted this Egg, the other party could have directly come forward to buy it before the exhibition. For someone who can spend 800 million to buy an Egg, the Suzuki Foundation would probably give them face," Conan continued, "But the other party didn't do that, indicating that he wants to use other means to get this Egg."
"It's best to find an Opportunity to get in contact with this Egg," Hattori Heiji looked at Conan and smiled, "Interesting, we just happened to meet a group of people today who want the Egg but can't afford it, and also have the Opportunity to get in contact with it!"
Chi Feichi was very satisfied. As expected of two famous High School Student Detectives, with a little guidance, they could deduce so much, very worry-free, "The other party sniped the right eye, I'm not sure if it was a coincidence or if they chose the best sniping position at that Location, or some kind of ritual or habit, after all, compared to sniping the right eye, hitting the Heart would be easier to hit, right? Like... showing off marksmanship?"
"Wait a minute! I remember..."
Hattori Heiji used his Mobile Phone to search for a while, and then put the Mobile Phone in front of the two of them, "Scorpio! A guy who is interested in Romanov Dynasty Artifacts, identity unknown, but this guy always hits the right eye with a Bullet and then penetrates the brain every time he kills someone!"
"The Emperor's Easter Egg is also a Romanov Dynasty Artifact, if our guess is right, things will be troublesome, there is a very dangerous guy among those people we met during the day..." Conan's expression was solemn, although he didn't definitely say 'this is the Truth', but a Detective's intuition told him that this guess was very likely the Truth!
