Chapter 219 Hissashi: You Can't Scare Me!

Chapter 219 Hissashi: You Can't Scare Me!

"It's not always about cleaning up Undercover Agent; you have to look at other situations too," Gin explained again.

Chi Feichei understood. It was just Gin taking him to familiarize himself with the Business...

Gin didn't continue.

This wasn't the main point. The main point was Chi Feichei's State, which the Organization hadn't grasped yet.

The Boss believed that others wouldn't joke about their own Body. During periods of weakness, they would lay low. Even if they didn't and something happened, The Boss would consider whether to abandon them or rescue them.

But Chi Feichei was the most clueless one. He had an Illness and still wouldn't admit it. What if he suddenly had a whim and went to cause trouble, leading to problems with his Body or Mental State? A good Talent would be half-ruined.

If Chi Feichei got into trouble then, he would definitely have a rescue Task, which would be even more Troublesome. It was better to bring him along for a week or two. Bringing one was the same as bringing two, and he could also Help out, reducing the Work burden.

And this was also a good Opportunity to understand Chi Feichei's Mental State, at least to figure out the pattern or trigger of Chi Feichei's 'abnormality', so it would be less Troublesome in the future.

However, he wouldn't say these Words directly.

Chi Feichei's superficial act was too good. Even the Doctor at Aoyama Fourth Hospital could be deceived, and he was almost able to get a Proof of Cure. But did he look like someone who was about to recover?

Before figuring out the Situation, he didn't want to arouse Chi Feichei's Guarding Against.

Chi Feichei didn't say anything more.

After spending time together, he felt that Gin's Personality wasn't as arrogant as he'd imagined. He spoke directly about Matters, which was quite good.

Compared to his Old Dad's Communication method of 'I guess you can guess what I want you to guess,' Gin at least explained things a bit. He also resonated with Gin's way of thinking, even if Gin was a little neurotic.

He didn't dislike Gin.

So far, he only admired two people: Amuro Toru and Gin. Their work efficiency was very much to his liking, but Pity, it would be hard to recruit them.

It really was like the Sentence said: the Talent he admired were always from someone else's Home...

For more than an Hour, the three people in the Collection Room were all silent.

"Knock! Knock!"

The Door was suddenly knocked.

Gin's Nerves instantly tensed up. Vodka was Outside in the Alley, so it was impossible for someone to come in without notifying him. Besides, the knocking position was strange, too low...

"Master?" Hissashi called from Outside the Door.

"My Pet woke up," Chi Feichei relaxed. "Gin, Help open the Door."

Gin got up and opened the Door, lowering his head to stare at the gray-black Snake at the Entrance.

Hissashi raised its head, looked at Gin's cold, sharp Gaze, its Snake Face Expressionless, flicked its Snake Tongue, and slithered into the Door.

Scared? That was impossible.

Although it was more piercing than Master's Gaze... no, piercing for a Snake, but it was still a Snake that had been influenced by Master for so long. It was used to it.

"Don't climb around randomly, and don't touch the Tube," Chi Feichei said, lying down. "Find a Place to play by yourself."

"Okay..." Hissashi propped itself up and looked around, lazily climbed onto the Chair, then from the Chair Back to the Table. "Master, good morning, it's so Cold. You got up early again, and my Bedding got cold while I was sleeping..."

After Gin closed the Door, he returned to his Chair and sat down.

The Investigation Data mentioned that Chi Feichei kept a Snake. He didn't find it Strange when he saw it.

As for Snakes being dangerous?

It was best if it didn't bite him...

Otherwise, between him and the Snake, the Snake would probably still die.

The Young Doctor tried his best not to look at Hissashi on the Table.

Compared to furry, big-eyed, round Animals like cats, dogs, and hamsters, many people easily associated Creatures like Snakes, which have no limbs and are covered in Scales, with Words like 'Danger', 'malicious', and 'Horror'. Fear of Snakes was also influenced by innate genes and Learned Perception.

Chi Feichei was indifferent to Snakes before, but after raising Hissashi, it became 'my own Pet is cute everywhere'. The Children of the Junior Detective League were the same. This was a change in Learned Perception.

And the Young Doctor probably wouldn't have the Opportunity to experience Hissashi's cuteness...

Hissashi coiled up on the Table and lay there for a while. Feeling bored, it stretched out its Body, rolled over once, belly up, and stared at Gin.

Gin glanced sideways, then withdrew his Gaze.

Hissashi continued to look, occasionally flicking its Snake Tongue, staring for a full two Hours.

It wasn't thinking about anything, just spacing out...

Gin: "..."

Why was this Snake staring at him all the time?

Staring motionlessly... was it dead?

Hissashi stared for another ten minutes, then rolled over boredly, propped up its head to look at Chi Feichei. "Master, I'm so bored..."

Chi Feichei: "If you're bored, go play by yourself."

"There's nothing fun to do..." Hissashi continued to look at Chi Feichei expectantly.

Of course, maybe only Chi Feichei thought Hissashi was acting cute.

When Hissashi propped up its head and stared coldly at Chi Feichei, the Young Doctor standing beside him felt a chill down his back.

Gin quietly watched Chi Feichei talking to himself. Where could he see that this Snake was bored?

He thought this Snake was more likely to bite someone...

Chi Feichei was silent for a moment. "Come up here, but don't touch the Tube."

"Okay!" Hissashi immediately whooshed and darted onto the Platform where Chi Feichei was lying.

Gin narrowed his Eyes. This Snake's Speed... was much faster than he'd imagined.

Hissashi darted onto the Platform, went under Chi Feichei's Neck, then curled its Tail around Chi Feichei's Neck, rested its head on Chi Feichei's Face, felt the Temperature different from the Cold Table, and sighed, "Comfortable!"

Chi Feichei: "..."

He knew Hissashi was complaining that the Table was Cold...

Gin gradually relaxed. If it weren't for Chi Feichei's calm Face the whole time, he would have considered going over and picking up that Snake. "What kind of Snake is this?"

"Red-Banded Krait, a bit mutated," Chi Feichei said. "Its Physique is stronger than a Common Snake."

"Its moving Speed is very fast," Gin commented. "Pity the Red-Banded Snake Venom isn't strong enough."

Hissashi: "..."

This was the first time someone had said 'Pity the Toxin isn't strong enough' and hadn't asked 'will this Snake bite people'...

"Keeping it as a Pet, it doesn't matter whether the Toxin is strong or not," Chi Feichei said.

In any case, no matter how strong it was, it wouldn't be as strong as his Toxin.

"Also Correct. You can tame Animals, right?"

"It can Warning, preventing someone from putting a Bug on my Body."

"That's not bad..."

The two chatted a few sentences indifferently, then continued in Silence.

The Young Doctor had originally wanted to cover his ears and not listen.

The more these two people chatted unscrupulously in front of him, the more it indicated that he was going to be eliminated.

He really wanted to Say, "Stop talking, I don't want to know anything."

But when the two people really stopped chatting, he felt tormented again.

Looking over there, under the white light, the Man in Black Clothes was lying motionless, his expression calm and indifferent. A cold, gray-black Snake was wrapped around his Neck, its Snake Head resting on his Face, occasionally flicking its Snake Tongue. Against his pale skin, it looked very eerie, like something out of a Horror Movie.

The key was that he couldn't look away. He had to monitor the person's State during the Collection Period and instruct them to clench or relax their fists based on the Blood Flow. He couldn't just turn his head to look at someone else... no, looking at the other Man wouldn't make him feel any better either.

Cold, fear, and helplessness.

After probably another half Hour, the Collection ended.

The Young Doctor pressed the Needle Hole, pressing for twenty minutes straight.

Seeing how dedicated the other person was, Chi Feichei was even a little embarrassed to 'silence' him.

However, whether or not to silence him was obviously not his decision.

After the Needle Hole stopped bleeding, Chi Feichei got up and slowly moved around a bit. Lying down for over four Hours, with Blood drawn out and then flowing back, his hands and feet were stiff and Uncomfortable.

The Young Doctor went to the Machine to process the collected Hematopoietic Stem Cells and part of the Plasma.

Gin waited for an Hour, got the Hematopoietic Stem Cells, and walked out of the Collection Room. "I'll have Vodka drive over."

Chi Feichei looked at the Young Doctor who was about to Go Out and put on a new Black Cloak. "Doctor, are there any Precautions I should know about?"

"The Cloak from a Few Days Ago was stained with too much Conan's Blood, so I burned it. This one is new..."

The Young Doctor froze in Place, covered in Cold sweat. He barely managed to calm down and said, "You still need to take Calcium Tablet for more than a week, and avoid Strenuous Exercise..."

He spoke haltingly, each Word coming out with difficulty.

Outside the Glass Observation Window, Gin hung up the Phone Call, turned his head, and glanced over. "Vodka's here."

Could you stop playing around and just deal with it quickly...?

"Understood," Chi Feichei's Hand reached out from under the Cloak, the Pistol with a Silencer aimed at the Young Doctor. His Face was mostly hidden by the Cloak, and against the light, his expression was unclear. His voice was Cold. "Doctor, thank you for your hard work during this Period. Please rest well..."

Bang—

Bang—

Two shots hit. The Young Doctor leaned against the Wall, fresh Blood quickly seeping out of his White Coat. With a complex expression, he slid to the Floor.

Before dying, he thought of many things: his Parents at Home, the emergency patient who had died on the Operating Table...

He even thought that the Fellow who was killing him was so cautious that he'd even made him do the Physical Examination first, always Guarding Against him. Once he was used up, he was discarded like trash...

The Organization was truly ruthless...

On the snow-white Wall, a vertical streak of Blood was dragged downwards.

At the same time, Vodka also carried two buckets of Gasoline into the Door.

Chi Feichei put away his Gun. His positioning was perfect, and his timing was perfect. It was just that the person seemed to have fainted from fear... But that was fine too, it looked just like he was really dead.

He quickly sprinkled Gasoline all around the Laboratory. When he reached the Entrance, Chi Feichei borrowed a Cigarette from Gin, lit it, and casually tossed it behind him.

Flames quickly leaped up and were then sealed off behind the closed Door.

In the Collection Room, the Young Doctor leaned against the Wall, motionless.

Under the Floor, a small Machine that detected Temperature 'beeped' once when the fire started. The Iron Bar supporting the Floor retracted.

The Floor collapsed, and the person fell into a Wooden Box below.

As the fire spread, the Cement Bag on one side, filled with diluted cement, ruptured and expanded wildly in the High Temperature. Like gushing Water, it pushed the Wooden Box, rushing all the way along the Tunnel to the End.

When the fire reached the Ceiling, the Temperature sensor behind the Ceiling also 'beeped' once. The Ceiling layer collapsed, and a Corpse fell to the Place where the Doctor had been.

In the Small House on the Street behind the burning Laboratory, Amuro Toru was guarding a Pit. He occasionally glanced at the Time, and when he looked at the Pit again, he suddenly saw a Box being pushed towards him.

Inside, the person in the White Coat was stained with Blood, their Uncertainty of Life or Death.

Amuro Toru checked his Breath, Heartbeat, and Injury, and couldn't help but be Speechless. Seemingly, one shot had hit the Heart and another the upper Stomach, but the dangerous shot had probably just grazed the edge of the Heart, avoiding major arteries. The person was only unconscious.

As for why there were two shots, he knew very well. It was because the replaced Corpse was like that.

The Corpse Chi Feichei had requested was of matching age and Gender, died from a Gunshot Wound, preferably not a headshot, with the Gunshot Wound in the Abdomen. As for how many shots, it didn't matter. He would just add a few shots in the nearby area...

Amuro Toru got up and made a Phone Call.

He needed to contact trustworthy people to rescue the man.

Also, even though the fire would destroy the Corpse, during the autopsy, it would still be possible to infer the deceased's Basic Situation based on the Corpse's condition, and maybe even collect DNA for comparison.

The replaced Corpse, after all, wasn't a real Doctor, just a Criminal who had been shot dead.

Initially, the Metropolitan Police Department had to be the ones to discover the Corpse. They also needed to let the public see the Corpse being carried out to spread the News. Tomorrow, there would be a Report about 'a Charred Corpse with Gunshot Wound found in XX place'.

But before the Metropolitan Police Department's detailed autopsy, people from the Public Security Department had to intervene and take over the Matter.

Actually, this kind of Report wouldn't take up much space. The Organization might not necessarily pay attention to an Outer Member, but the Advisor still wanted to be thorough.

Hmm, another Witness for the Advisor...

He'd heard that the Advisor had once asked a Doctor to learn about Human Organ Structure. He was considering whether he should learn it too. If he didn't, even after seeing the Scan from the Physical Examination, he wouldn't be able to aim so precisely...

After learning, he wondered if he could shoot someone a few times and still not kill them...
