Chapter 138: Is 'Not Too Good' All It Is?

Chapter 138: Is 'Not Too Good' All It Is?

On stage, Conan bowed in thanks, inwardly snickering.

Why did he have to come and perform in this kind of Children's stage play?…

Ran and Uncle were both watching from Off Stage, especially Hassashi, that guy, too…

How embarrassing!

He should have grabbed Ai's role instead. Although playing Hassashi meant only saying a few words in the Investigation Scene and spending the rest of the time watching the play with a cold face, at least it wouldn't be so childish…

After Ai came Off Stage, she walked to Chi Feichei's side. Seeing Chi Feichei pat the small stool beside him, she sat down and turned her head to ask, "How was it?"

"Exactly the same," Chi Feichei commented.

Hissashi, who was secretly poking its head out from the collar, also nodded repeatedly, though its movements were completely blocked by the Windbreaker's high collar…

"Of course," Conan sat down on the small stool beside Mouri Ran and complained, "Ai doesn't need any Acting Skill to play you…"

It was still quite difficult for others to play Chi Feichei; they didn't have that cold Aura. But for Haibara Ai, it was just a matter of putting on a cold face, no Acting Skill needed at all.

Haibara Ai glared at Conan, "Being similar, is there a problem?"

Conan choked, helplessly yielding, "No problem!"

This play was the Finale Performance, and after it ended, it was the cliché award ceremony.

In the Rear, Sumiko Kobayashi stood with a sweet smile.

"Kobayashi, are those students from your Class? They're amazing!"

"First Place, wow, their Performance was wonderful!"

"The Children are so cute, I want to be a Teacher too."

"They're alright, the Children are indeed quite cute, and the Children in my Class are especially smart!" Sumiko Kobayashi said with a smile, then turned her head and noticed her good Friend's pale face, feeling a little puzzled, "Xia Mei, are you feeling unwell? Why do you look so pale?"

Xia Mei stared at Chi Feichei's figure, "N-No…"

She would never forget that night when she personally sent the cute Little Hamster to their doom…

Why did she come to the Elementary School to watch the Children's Performance, only to run into this person?

Sumiko Kobayashi turned her head to look at Chi Feichei, "Oh, that seems to be the Elder Brother of Ai from our Class. It's also my first time seeing him. Ai left two Parent's Phone Number, and I've always been calling the first one, which seems to be her Grandpa. This time, she insisted that I call the second one, probably because she wanted her Elder Brother to come and see the Stage Play Performance. He's handsome, right?"

Xia Mei nodded with a pale face. It was because of this that she didn't look at faces when choosing a Boyfriend anymore, as long as his Personality was good.

"The Girl next to him is Ai, she's very pretty, she's a mixed-race Child in our Class," Sumiko Kobayashi said, as if showing off her Treasure, then sighed again, "But you have a Boyfriend, staring at someone like that…"

"He keeps a Snake…" Xia Mei saw Chi Feichei walking over, her face turning a little unsightly, "He's simply a Demon King!"

"Huh?" Sumiko Kobayashi turned her head in confusion, only to find that her good Friend had already run away, then turned her head to look at Chi Feichei who had walked to her side.

Haibara Ai and Conan looked up at Chi Feichei.

Mouri Ran turned her head in surprise, and Mori Kogoro also secretly stared at Chi Feichei.

Chi Feichei: "…"

What's the Situation?

After a strange silence of two seconds, Sumiko Kobayashi felt that the Coldness was not good, "Um… you and my Friend…"

The others looked calm, their eyes even showing a hint of gossip.

Just Coldness, they had seen it a lot with Chi Feichei, no big deal.

Chi Feichei was not embarrassed either. Besides feeling speechless, he recalled, "I bought a Hamster at her Shop."

"Right, right, she used to Work at a Pet Shop that sold Hamster," Sumiko Kobayashi nodded repeatedly, also getting gossipy in her heart, "Then… and then what?"

"Bought it to feed the Snake," Chi Feichei paused, "She might feel it's not too good."

Sumiko Kobayashi: "…"

The others: "…"

Buying Hamster from a Pet Shop to feed Snake, is 'not too good' all it is?

Those Hamster were sold as Pets, what would the Boss and Shop Assistant think?

Sumiko Kobayashi looked at her Friend who was far away from here, finally Understanding, "I'm sorry, her Reaction was a bit much, she has liked Little Hamster since she was a Child, that's why she went to Work there as a Shop Assistant…"

Chi Feichei nodded, it was good if there was no misunderstanding, "Teacher Kobayashi mentioned on the Phone Call before that there was something about Ai you wanted to talk to me about?"

Haibara Ai immediately perked up her ears to listen, there was such a Matter?

Sumiko Kobayashi smiled awkwardly. After the Phone Call connected and she confirmed that the other side was Haibara Ai's Guardian, she told him about the School Fair and the talk in one go.

Originally, she wanted to say that Haibara Ai was usually a bit introverted and suggest that her Guardian take her out to play more, but after saying the Matter and Chi Feichei coldly responded with 'Understood', she gave up.

This… was probably Heredity in Personality?

Compared to her Elder Brother, this Child in their Class was even better.

Clearly, Grandpa was a very smiley Old Man…

Chi Feichei looked at Sumiko Kobayashi, waiting for the Following Text.

"Cough," Sumiko Kobayashi was stared at until she felt Coldness on her back, and smiled, "I wanted to say, this Child is a bit Introverted, it would be better for Guardians to take her out more, tomorrow is a Holiday, choose a Place to take her to play, how about it?"

Chi Feichei felt that it was right to take Haibara Ai out more, and looked down to ask Haibara Ai, "Is there any Place you want to go?"

Haibara Ai thought for a moment, "Let's go to the Hospital you're at, to see Small Animals."

"No, the Hospital environment is not good," Chi Feichei decisively refused.

Bourbon was still nailed there, although Amuro Toru might not think of the Matter of shrinking, but what if?

If Haibara Ai went there and was seen, she might be Bludgeon on the head and packaged up to be sold to the Organization on the way home from school…

"How about Tropical Land?" Mouri Ran suggested from the side, "Sonoko, me, and Conan will all be going."

"Sonoko told me about it," Chi Feichei said, "But Hissashi is afraid of the Cold…"

"Promise them, Master!" Hissashi couldn't wait to say, "Hand me over to Bourbon to take care of tomorrow!"

If it could hear some Secrets, that would be great.

Chi Feichei suddenly wanted to put a Tag on Hissashi—[It, Hissashi, wants to be a Living Eavesdropping Device without Emotion].

It was probably because it had been a long time since he sent Home Delivery, he also missed it a bit…

"Okay, we'll go to Tropical Land tomorrow."

"Then Hissashi…" Haibara Ai hesitated.

"Don't worry, someone will take care of it," Chi Feichei said.

Letting Hissashi go to investigate the Situation was also not bad, to figure out what Amuro Toru was after as soon as possible.

"Then I won't go tomorrow!" Mori Kogoro decisively excused himself, was autumn not cool enough? "Hassashi, you drive them over, that's fine."

Sumiko Kobayashi smiled from the side, the Relationship between these two families was really good…

…

The Next Day.

Chi Feichei arrived at the Office and found an Office Desk next to his Office Desk…

Soma Taku stood aside with Amuro Toru, "The Advisor said that the Applicants would be arranged by Mr. Oyama and me. Mr. Amuro's Performance was truly outstanding, and we felt that making him a Director Assistant was too much of a waste of talent, so we decided to make him the Advisor's Assistant instead."

Chi Feichei: "…"

"Hello," Amuro Toru smiled sweetly, secretly observing Chi Feichei. His Aura was very cold, but he was definitely easier to get along with than an arrogant and domineering person, "I am Amuro Toru, please give me your guidance in the future!"

"Chi Feichei, Advisor of Shinchi Group, Intern Doctor at the Pet Hospital," Chi Feichei introduced himself with a calm Face, feeling speechless in his heart.

He originally wanted to put Amuro Toru in the Next Door Office and observe him secretly, but Da Shan Mi and Soma Taku directly put the person next to him.

But it was indeed him who asked Da Shan Mi and Soma Taku to discuss and decide, he never cared about these small Matters, and chasing people away as soon as they met would seem strange.

Just let him stay, he could observe him just the same.

Soma Taku smiled, "Advisor, I have already told him about your specific Situation. You can also tell him if you have any arrangements for today. With your Assessment Standard, he got a Perfect Score Answer."

"Send the Solution to my Email."

Chi Feichei went to the Office Desk, put Hissashi into the Warmer on the Table, turned his head and said to Amuro Toru, "I'm going to Tropical Land later, please trouble Mr. Amuro to take care of Hissashi."

"No Problem!" Amuro Toru nodded with a smile. He had heard Soma Taku mention the Pet Snake before, and taking care of Snake was also within expectations.

"It hasn't been feeling well recently, I hope Mr. Amuro can take care of it more. If you find any Abnormality, you can Phone Call me. My Contact Information, Professor should have already told you."

After Chi Feichei finished speaking, he nodded to the two of them and left the Office.

He couldn't directly let Amuro Toru take Hissashi everywhere, it would be too suspicious, he could only find a Reason first, anyway, there was plenty of Time, no need to rush.

Watching Chi Feichei leave, Amuro Toru sighed with emotion, "The Advisor is really Efficient and Decisive."

"Yes, the Advisor is this kind of Personality, he gets straight to the point," Soma Taku also sighed, lowered his head and observed Hissashi in the Glass Terrarium, "Has Hissashi not been feeling well recently?"

Amuro Toru also leaned over to look, "Should we take it for an Inspection?"

Hissashi: "…"

If they dared to take it for an Inspection, it would bite people!

Soma Taku thought for a moment, "No need, the Advisor is also a Student from the Department of Veterinary Medicine, his Level is not bad. If Hissashi is Ill, he should know, and he would have it checked if needed. Perhaps Hissashi is about to Hibernation, or perhaps the Advisor feels there is a bit of Abnormality, it's better to observe it first. It's also easier to make a Judgment and Treatment when the Symptom appears."

Amuro Toru looked at the gray-black Snake in the Box, his Mood still a bit subtle. It was his first time seeing someone keep a Snake as a Pet, he had only heard of it before, let alone putting a Snake on his Body. Seeing Chi Feichei pick up the Snake, he felt a bit Scalp Numbing, "The Pet the Advisor chose is really special, aren't you worried about being bitten by it?"

Soma Taku chuckled, "The Advisor has been with Hissashi all the time, and has never been bitten by Hissashi. There are also a group of Children who play with Hissashi. Hissashi is a very friendly Snake, and the Advisor also treats it as a Partner to accompany him. Even when the weather gets cold, the Advisor doesn't seem to want Hissashi to Hibernation, and always carries it with him or puts it in a Warmer."

Hissashi: "…"

Master seems to have taken the Responsibility for it…

"So that's how it is…" Amuro Toru looked at Hissashi, his Mood adding a few more points of emotion and heaviness.

How lonely must one be to treat a Snake as a Creature that can always accompany them?

It was normal to think so, after all, he was so lonely that he ended up in a Mental Hospital…

Hmm, perhaps Chi Feichei was not as cold as he seemed on the surface…

Hissashi: "…"

This Fellow's Gaze suddenly became very strange.
