After riding the Ferris wheel, Chi Feichi and Yuesui Nanatsuki went to experience the "water rafting" project. They left Dorobiga Paradise when the sun set.
The staff of the amusement park placed a row of clay pots at the entrance, allowing couples to untie the red ropes and put them in the pots to burn. The staff nearby used delicate scissors to help cut the ropes and kept explaining to the couples who gathered around them.
.
"You can take your red rope home or burn it here. Afterwards, we will send the residue to the shrine where we pray for marriage, so that everyone's love can be blessed by the gods..."
"Those who want to burn the red rope can come here if they have tied a dead knot before. We will help cut the rope. You can pray when burning the red rope..."
Many couples stood on the roadside, waiting for the red rope between their wrists to be cut, and then stepped forward together to throw the red rope into the burning jar.
Others quietly bowed their heads in prayer while the red rope was burning, and then another couple came forward.
Under the setting sun, couples came forward, giving it a ceremonial feel as if they were holding church activities.
Koshimizu Nanatsuki lined up behind the crowd and thought carefully, "Let's throw the red rope into a jar and burn it, so we don't need to pray anymore..."
Chi Feichi silently listened to Yuesui Nanatsuki's arrangements.
Now when he saw the lovers untying the ropes, he thought of those lovers who used other red ropes to extend the red rope, and one person held the rope and stood guard outside the bathroom door.
He and Yueshui also had such a "tragic" experience. At that moment, the girls seemed to have a unified view and insisted that "the red rope cannot be broken or untied."
Anyway, with the meaning of the red string and going to the bathroom, the romantic behavior becomes a little weird.
If the amusement park hadn't thought of this method, he felt Yueshui might really not want to untie the red rope and would have had a long headache on how to deal with it...
"I'm not very interested in praying right now," Koshimizu Nanatsuki saw the staff of the amusement park approaching. He raised his hand to ask the staff to help cut the rope. He heard the clicking sound and looked at the broken red rope with a look on his face.
A trace of distress flashed through the eyes, "It's better to burn the red rope as soon as possible and find a place to eat..."
The female staff member waited for Chi Feichi to hand her wrist to her body, pulled up the rope with one hand, and used scissors with the other hand to help cut the knotted rope loop. She comforted Koshimi Nanatsuki with great experience, "Don't worry, the fate of the two of you is
It has been bound by the invisible red rope for a long time, and it doesn't matter if I cut the red rope now."
Koshizui Nanatsuki relaxed and said, "Thank you, sorry for bothering you."
"It's okay, this is my job too, I wish you both happiness!" the female staff member responded with a smile, then took the scissors and went to find the next couple.
Chi Feichi waited for the female staff member to leave and asked aloud, "How was your experience today?"
"I laughed so much," Koshimizu Nanatsuki said with a smile as he recalled today's amusement experience. "The questions of the maze are not difficult, but the murals on the walls are very interesting. The Ferris wheel is more ritualistic than I thought. The haunted house
In fact, it’s quite scary, and water rafting is even more fun. If we hadn’t heard that there had been murders on roller coasters before, we could have experienced the roller coaster, but I don’t want to get involved with any cases today.
Let’s experience it together another day.”
Chi Feichi patiently listened to Koshizuki Nanatsuki's comments before emphasizing the key points, "So, what about the experience of having a boyfriend?"
"Ah?" Yuesui Nanatsuki raised his eyes in surprise, met Chi Feichi's calm eyes, and sweated, "This, this..."
Chi Feichi began to review today's interaction in his mind, "Not satisfied?"
"No, it's not," Koshimizu Nanatsuki said hurriedly, "I think it's very good, there's nothing I'm not dissatisfied about!"
Chi Feichi slapped the snake on the stick and asked, "Does it need to be renewed?"
"Okay, okay," Koshizu Nanatsuki's face turned red, but he did not avoid the question. He nodded in agreement and then confirmed with Chi Feichi, "Then shall we..."
"We are officially dating." Chi Feichi said affirmatively. He raised his right hand that was not holding the red string and placed it on Yuesui Nanatsuki's head. He grabbed the soft hair under his palm and touched it twice more.
Okay, you can touch your head openly from now on.
Although he has never touched it secretly, now he can touch it all the time, to the point where his hair will fall out if it gets too wet.
After all... Yuesui, who smiled and took the initiative to put his head close to his palm, was very cute.
Koshizui Nanatsuki suddenly noticed something was wrong. While he was annoyed at how he behaved like a pet, he turned his head to avoid Chi Feichi's palm, took a step back, and tried to keep a straight face, "But the renewal should be free.
Right? I can’t afford your contract renewal fee!”
Chi Feichi didn't even think about touching Koshizuki Nanatsuki's hair. He felt that his hands were empty. After sorting out the slight discomfort caused by the loss in his heart, he also took back his hand and fooled Koshizui Nanatsuki with his usual expression.
, "It won't be free, but I haven't thought about what kind of compensation I want. You can owe it first and talk about it later."
"What's the difference between a free renewal and a free renewal?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki joked, "If I'm not satisfied with the service, I'll just skip the bill."
"It's a little different from free, but it's your fault. It doesn't matter if you keep defaulting on your bill."
Chi Feichi responded, quietly planning in his mind.
He needed to let Yueshui know that he owed money to no one but the capitalists.
Of course it doesn't matter if you default on your debt, but Yueshui needs to pay interest occasionally, is that okay? The "debt" period he provided to Yueshui is a lifetime, so it's okay with a higher interest rate, right?
…
Chi Feichi and Koshimizu Nanatsuki burned the red rope and went to a nearby restaurant for dinner. Then Chi Feichi drove Koshimizu Nanatsuki back to the Mikka Town building, and he returned to the Aido Town apartment early.
He knows very well that he is not the kind of person who can be satisfied with a hug.
After the two officially started dating, some physical contact would be tacitly allowed. If they continued to stay in the same room at night, he was worried that he would be tempted to have close contact with Yueshui and then do something excessive.
If you want to collect interest, you have to wait until the time to collect interest comes.
After Ike Feichi drove away from Mikka Town, Conan quickly ran out of the Mouri Detective Agency, speeding down the street on his skateboard, frowning as he recalled what Mouri Kogoro had mentioned at dinner, and rushed to Cupido Town.
Uncle Kogoro said at the dinner table tonight——
'Do you still remember the man who was killed in the church on the campus? The police have found the pistol that killed the man, and the bullet marks found in the SO hotel were also from the same gun..."
"I heard from Officer Megure that he found it in the room of the head of an American film and television company. That person's name was Charles. He was also invited to participate in the All Japan Music Festival and the Miss Japanese Style Beauty Contest. There were murders and explosions in the park.
, he and his bodyguard are also there, and they are still guests of SO Hotel, so there is indeed a chance to commit a crime...'
'After he returned to Tokyo with his bodyguard, he checked into the Cupido Hotel and made a reservation for today's lunch with the hotel. However, this morning, no one answered the hotel restaurant's call to the room line. He rang the doorbell outside the room and knocked on the door, but no one answered.
The person responded and found that the door was unlocked. When he opened the door, he saw that no one was in the house. He thought they had something urgent and went out...'
'In the afternoon, his daughter who was far away in the United States couldn't contact him on the phone. She called the hotel again and learned that he had disappeared during the day. She hurriedly asked the embassy to contact the Japanese police...'
'The police who initially went to the hotel to investigate found that they might have left the room last night and found a pistol in the bodyguard's room, so they handed the case over to the Violent Search Division...'
'Yes, after investigation, the pistol found in the bodyguard's room was the gun that killed the man in the church on the campus. Fingerprints were also found on the gun, which was consistent with the bodyguard's personal belongings and the fingerprints taken from the bodyguard's room. According to this,
Maybe the bodyguard killed someone in the park. When he arrived in Tokyo, he became more and more uneasy and feared the crime and fled...'
'As for Charles, either he ordered his bodyguards to kill people and then absconded with them, or he was treated as a nuisance by his bodyguards and taken to a certain place to kidnap or directly kill him...'
He knew an inside story that the police didn't know - the person who shot everywhere in the corridor of SO Hotel that day was Gin!
The gun belonging to Gin appeared in the bodyguard's room of the head of an American film and television company, but the company head and the bodyguard were nowhere to be seen...
There must be a hidden secret in this, and it is definitely not as simple as Uncle Kogoro said!
…
When he arrived at the hotel, Conan looked at the police car parked at the door, ran into the hotel with his skateboard, and saw a familiar pink-haired man at the front desk. He was stunned for a moment and ran over quickly.
"Subaru, Mr. Subaru?"
"Huh?" Subaru Okiya turned to look at Conan who was running in front of him, "It turns out to be Conan, why are you here?"
Seeing Subaru Okiya appear here, Conan became more and more sure that this disappearance was not simple. Because he was not sure whether the surroundings were safe, he did not tell the truth. He looked up at Subaru Okiya and said, "I was passing by here and saw someone outside the door.
Police car, I was curious if something happened here, so I came in to take a look..."
"It really seems like something you would do," Subaru Okiya took the change handed over by the front desk staff and said thank you. When he and Conan walked aside, a smile appeared on his face and his voice was still gentle, "But
, sometimes it’s not a good habit to be nosy, it can easily bring trouble and danger to yourself and others.”
He spoke mildly of disapproval, and also mentioned 'trouble' and 'danger'. Fenmao looked like a pervert who threatened children.
But Conan knew that Subaru Okiya was not threatening him, but reminding or warning him——
This matter is very complicated. If he rashly intervenes, he and the people around him may be targeted, which will cause great trouble and danger!
This also confirmed his idea in disguise that this matter was really related to that organization.
In this case, it is even more impossible for him to ignore it.
"Stop talking about me, what about you, Mr. Subaru?" Conan pretended to be an innocent and curious child and asked, "Why are you here too?"
"I came here temporarily to catch up on my thesis. Although my current neighbors are not noisy. If they knew that I was writing the thesis, they would probably take the initiative to help me. But I heard that many people would stay in the hotel
I'm here to catch up on my paper, and it feels fresh no matter what I think about it, so I came here to experience it." Subaru Okiya reached the corner, leaned over to look at Conan, narrowed his eyes and smiled, and lowered his voice and said, "I didn't expect that the residents on the same floor were acting strangely.
The land has disappeared. I only found out about it when the police came to investigate today..."
Conan: "..."
(-;)
It's not like there are no hotels in Mika Town. Mr. Subaru is not in Mika Town, but came to Aipado Town to stay in a hotel. He clearly received some information and specifically stayed in this hotel.
Mr. Subaru actually lives on the same floor as the missing Charles, which further proves that Mr. Subaru's appearance here is not an accident.
only……
Mr. Subaru lives on the same floor, but Mr. Charles still disappears?
