Chapter 822 Li Flag was suddenly slapped in the face
Next door, the sound of doors opening and conversations could be heard from the courtyard of Zhujiao's house.
“Oh? So I, you are already here!”
"yes."
“Then I’ll go to the toilet first and then come out. You can start the engine of the car and wait for me.”
"No, if you want to drink, you have to walk there."
“I understand. This is a rare opportunity. Do you want to come with us?”
“No, I don’t usually drink, and I also want to watch late-night football live broadcasts, so I have to go to bed now.”
“Really? That’s such a pity...”
After a while, the male owner of the house and the Feng Shui master walked out to the street, arm-in-arm, laughing and chatting.
Hattori Heiji looked at the backs of the two people and sighed in his heart: The world of adults is really ironic.
Mouri Kogoro heard the ringtone of his cell phone, took out his cell phone and answered it, and heard Mao Lilan's somewhat irritable voice:
“Dad, how long are you going to hang out outside? We have already prepared dinner, can you come back soon?”
Mouri Kogoro kept his hands away from his ears, and waited for Mao Lilan to finish roaring, then said to the other end of the phone, "Okay, I got it, we'll go back right now."
After hanging up the phone, Maori Kogoro said casually, "Really... Okay, let's go back. I think the arsonist would not choose this place to commit the crime. It must be the woman who is dealing with her husband and her lover.
I was too nervous and misjudged it. There were no sneaky figures wandering around here."
Chi Fei started the car late, turned around and drove towards the street.
His teacher told him from personal experience: There are only zero or countless times for being slapped in the face for setting a flag.
The car turned around the intersection and drove along the road to the main driveway. As soon as it turned onto the main driveway, a fire truck with its siren blaring came from the opposite direction and turned in the direction they came from.
"This, this is..." Hattori Heiji turned his head and looked out of the rear window, his expression changed drastically.
From the direction they came, fire lit up the night sky, and thick smoke billowed into the sky.
“Brother Chi, stop the car!” Conan shouted. When Chi Feichi stopped the car, he immediately opened the door and jumped out.
Hattori Heiji also got out of the car and ran towards the direction of the fire with Conan.
“Hey…” Mouri Kogoro had no time to stop him.
Chi Feichi said, "Teacher, help me close the car door..."
Mouri Kogoro hesitated for a moment, but chose to get out of the car.
Chi Feichi: “...I want to go back for dinner.”
Mouri Kogoro, who was about to close the car door, stared: "..."
This guy can't bear to leave them behind and drive back to eat alone?
"I understand," Chi Feichi said, "I'll go to the intersection ahead and turn around."
“Okay, I’ll go check on those two reckless brats first!” Mouri Kogoro nodded seriously and closed the car door.
Chi Feichi drove to the front street and turned around, then turned back into the alley. Halfway through the car, he saw Conan, Hattori Heiji and Mouri Kogoro running towards the fire site, and they honked their horns.
The car did not slow down and drove past the three people. It only said a calm word:
"come on."
Conan stumbled while running and almost fell to the ground.
Mouri Kogoro choked, he would have been waiting to take the car if he had known it.
Hattori Heiji stopped in stunned silence and froze on the spot.
Brother Fei Chi didn’t even take them with him... Why bother? Is this a joke?
…
Chi Feichi looked at the three stunned people in the rearview mirror, drove around the street, and the three figures disappeared in the rearview mirror.
Calculating, it takes about eight minutes to drive to the fire site, and it takes about three minutes for him to make a U-turn at the previous intersection. Even if he encounters a traffic light or heavy traffic and has to wait for a while, he can reach the fire site within fifteen minutes.
If you want to run there, there are no direct alleys and shortcuts in this area, so you still have to run along the road, which takes about 25 minutes.
Why can't these three people calm down and accompany him to the intersection to make a U-turn?
Since you got out of the car in advance, let’s run over.
By the time Conan and the other two people ran out of breath, Zhujiao's house was still enveloped in fire, and firefighters were still putting out the fire.
Chi Feichi’s car was parked at the street corner without driving past, but he had already arrived behind the crowd of onlookers.
"Huh..." Hattori Heiji ran to Ike Feichi, bent over, supported his knees with one hand, and asked heavily, "Fei, Fei Chi, how is the situation?"
Conan and Mouri Kogoro followed closely, and Youyuan looked at Chi Feichi.
Someone actually watched them running over, ruthless!
“The fire is very strong,” Chi Feichi turned around and walked away from the crowd of onlookers. “We are still controlling the fire to prevent it from spreading to nearby homes. It will probably take some time to completely put out the fire, and we are not sure if there is anyone inside.”
"I remember..." Hattori Heiji looked at the fire that engulfed the house with an ugly face, "The hostess of that house didn't leave before we left, right?"
“Hmm…” Mouri Kogoro nodded with a heavy face.
After watching for a while, Hattori Heiji came to his senses and called Toyama Kazuha to tell them that they could not go back.
Listening to Yuan Shan and Ye's questioning on the phone, Chi Feichi wanted to say that he wanted to go back, but he couldn't do it now.
They had gone into the Zhujiao family’s yard to watch someone’s affair, and their footprints must have been left in the yard.
If they had diverted back earlier, they could have eaten first and waited for the police to contact them after investigating the footprints. They would then explain to the police.
But now that they are all here, it is best to wait for the police to arrive and explain the footprints.
Forget it, he can still buy lunch...
“Liangzi! Liangzi!”
In the crowd, the man of the Zhujiao family rushed forward and was stopped by a firefighter.
Morokaku Ryoko was brought out by firefighters, but she was already a corpse.
The male head of the Zhujiao family threw himself in front of the stretcher, his face full of tears and his voice was sad, "Ryoko——!"
The Feng Shui master named "Soga" was by his side, reaching out to hold the man's shoulders and looking at the corpse with a sad expression on his face.
The onlookers were also moved by the sadness, except...
Chi Feichi observed the expressions of the two people and felt a little emotional.
There are many people in this world whose acting skills are not bad. They shed tears whenever they want, and even their expressions are on point.
“It seems that the lady did not escape.” Mouri Kogoro said solemnly.
Hattori Heiji had already hung up the phone on Toyama Kazuha, and said angrily, "Damn it, if we had been staying here, this wouldn't have happened."
"But don't you think it's strange?" Conan looked at the crying male master of the Morokaku family, "Didn't those two people go out to drink? It was less than an hour before they went out, so why did they come back again?"
“Yes.” Hattori Heiji also felt abnormal.
“Maybe it’s my husband’s sixth sense,” Mouri Kogoro guessed. “Maybe someone discovered the fire and ran to notify them.”
“Mom, look, am I right?” In the crowd behind, a little boy looked up at his mother, “The red horse who set fire to the house is here again.”
Hattori Heiji was stunned, and quickly stepped forward, knelt down and asked, "Kid, how do you know that Akama has been here?"
Conan also followed.
Maybe this is an eyewitness!
“Because I saw it with my own eyes!” said the little boy.
“When was it? Where was it?” Conan asked quickly.
The little boy's mother quickly protected the little boy behind her, "Hey, what on earth do you want to do?"
Hattori Heiji used provocation, "Kid, did you really see it? It's not nonsense, is it?"
"I'm not lying!" The little boy looked out from behind his mother and said seriously, "Although it was just a shadow, I was watching the "Masked Superman" cartoon in the living room, and when the theme song started to play,
It suddenly became bright outside, and I looked out the window and was shocked to see that there was a shadow of such a big horse on the curtains of my house!"
As he spoke, the little boy opened his hands and made a big circle, "But my mother came in quickly and said that we couldn't watch TV in the dark room. She turned on the light, and the shadow disappeared immediately."
"Which side is your home?" Conan turned to look at the houses near the fire, "On the left or on the right?"
“The house on the right side of the house that is on fire!” The little boy pointed to his own house, and Hattori Heiji and Conan immediately ran over.
“Wait, wait a minute!” The little boy’s mother had no time to stop her and watched the two people climb over the fence and run into their yard.
Chi Feichi turned around and glanced, but did not follow.
There must be a red horse toy at the fire scene. Due to the flames of the fire, the horse's shadow was projected on the curtains of the little boy's house. And "Masked Superman" started at 7:30 in the evening. If the little boy found out outside
The time it lit up happened to be when the opening song of "Masked Superman" started, so the fire should have started around 7:30.
However, he remembered that the method of this case was to use light bulbs, toilet paper and matches...
In the crowd behind, a hand slowly stretched out to Chi Feichi's shoulder.
The second before the hand touched Chi Feichi's shoulder, Chi Feichi turned sideways and moved a step to the left. While avoiding the hand, he also turned around to look at the owner of the hand.
Xuantian Longde clapped his hands in the air and stopped in the air. He looked up and saw Chi Feichi staring at him. More cold sweat oozed from his sweaty forehead, "Chi, Mr. Chi, I...
…I just want to talk to you…”
Chi Fei nodded slowly, "You lead the way."
Xuantian Longde breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, walked to the street, stopped under the wall away from the crowd, turned around and looked at Chi Feichi who was following him, wiped the sweat on his head, and stopped talking.
,"I……"
Chi Feichi waited for Xuantian Longde to continue.
"I..." Xuantian Longde quietly glanced at Chi Feichi's cold expression, raised his hand that he had just put down, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Chi Feichi: “……”
Genda Longde took a deep breath, looked up at the young man in black who was much taller than him, met the overly calm gaze, sweated, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and wiped his face.
Chi Feichi has a black line on his head. He wipes his head and face, and then wipes it again. Xuantian Longde, should he wipe his hands, arms, and legs again?
“As a grown man, can you not be sarcastic in what you say and do?”
"Ah, yes!" Xuantian Longde quickly stood upright and put down the handkerchief, "Huh, I'm sorry, I just want to ask you, can you give me back the keychain I gave you today? That... that was supposed to be a sign.
Lucky Cat’s keychain, but..."
Chi Feichi took out the small box from his pants pocket, opened it, and looked at the key ring inside.
The keychain has a toy pendant of Guan Yu riding a red rabbit horse. The person, Qinglong Yanyue Sword and horse are all red, small and exquisite, and even the fine lines on the armor and horse's reins are clearly outlined.
Feichi poked his head from the collar, staring at the key ring, unable to take his eyes away, "Master, Master, this toy is so beautifully made, and it also has a key ring, so you don't need to tie it up when hanging on the wall!"
"Ah!" Xuantian Longde was startled by Fei Chi who suddenly poked his head out, and took a step back in a hurry, "Snake...snake..."
