Chapter 3311: Can Withstand the Torment
"An incident happened in the B&B where we live. To be precise, someone died in the nearby snowy mountains. I suspect that person's death may be related to someone in the B&B," Conan whispered. "Everyone has just returned from the place where the body was found. I am alone on the second floor of the B&B looking for clues."
"An incident happened. That's really troublesome..."
Okiya Subaru was chatting with Conan, looking at the bottle of bourbon whiskey he placed on the bar, and was a little distracted.
He really got nothing this time.
When Bourbon appeared today, he was still thinking - could Mr. Chi be from the public security?
Mr. Chi usually has a good relationship with the Japanese police. When he was monitored, he would choose to call the police directly, which means that Mr. Chi trusts the Japanese police very much. Moreover, after his investigation, he found that the Zhenchi Group seemed to have been providing financial support to the Japanese judicial institutions. If the Japanese public security found that the former maid of the Chi family was a member of the organization and found that the organization would take some actions against the Chi family, it is indeed possible to protect Mr. Chi as a witness of something.
Mr. Chi is alert, has good reasoning and puzzle-solving abilities, and has a certain chance of becoming Bourbon's partner in the process of receiving public security protection.
This was a suspicion he had long ago. Today, he went to the Seven Detective Agency with Bourbon to find Mr. Chi. He thought he could confirm this guess in his heart, but after meeting the two today, he was not sure whether Mr. Chi was a member of the public security.
If Mr. Chi and Bourbon both belong to the public security forces, then after the two get together, they should have their own corresponding roles, such as one is the protected person and the other is the protector, or the two are partners. In this case, it is normal for him to appear near the Seven Detective Agency today and Bourbon to test him, but after that...
Mr. Chi poured two cups of tea in advance and told him directly, "I saw you on the balcony", which made him feel a little awkward.
At that time, he had been found by Bourbon. On the surface, he had also been restrained by Bourbon. In this case, was it necessary for Mr. Chi to come forward to attract his attention...
...
"Humans are experienced social animals. After a team of two or more people reaches a cooperation, there must be obvious or subtle resource allocation and task division, and even status division. This is an efficient cooperation method found by humans in the process of evolution. Allocation has almost become a human instinct. Even if two people have a good relationship and can't distinguish between you and me, after reaching a cooperation on a certain matter, they will subconsciously divide each other's responsibilities. For example, if you clean the table, then I will be responsible for washing the dishes. Moreover, after two people have cooperated once or twice, when they see their partner start to clean the table, the other person will silently I will wash the dishes by myself, and will not try to wipe the table, but prepare to wash the dishes..."
Chi Feichi sat on the bench, looking at Amuro Toru who was leaning on the parallel bars not far away, and calmly explained his behavior during the day, "You could have completely distracted his attention at that time, and you were completely in an offensive posture. If I were your partner, I should have observed and assisted by the side, which is more in line with the cooperation mode of two people. When one person attacks, the other person cooperates. This is also a normal cooperation mode. But I poured two cups of tea, indicating that I saw you on the balcony. This will release a signal of "active attack". For a cooperative relationship, such behavior is not only an abuse of human resources, but also makes the two people lack coordination and tacit understanding. "
"No wonder..." Amuro Toru He jumped down from the parallel bars, took a long breath, wiped the sweat from his head and walked to the bench. "After we separated in the morning, I tried to understand your behavior from his perspective, but the more I thought about it, the more awkward it felt. Now that I think about it, it should be because we had no tacit understanding at the time that made me feel awkward... But since you value his opinion of us, he should be the one you don't want to tell, right?"
"Didn't you suspect him a long time ago?" Chi Feichi said calmly, "And I didn't say I didn't want to tell you, it was you who insisted on finding an answer yourself."
"I want to complete all the puzzles by myself. If someone helps me complete the puzzles, then the puzzles will be meaningless," Amuro Toru walked to the bench, picked up the thermos cup he had placed on the bench before, and smiled. "And I'm almost done with the puzzle, now I just need the most important piece... If I handle this information as I want, you should continue to follow our agreement and not interfere in these things, right?"
"Of course, I promised you," Chi Feichi looked at Amuro Toru, his tone and face as calm as his face, "I don't believe you will cut him into pieces."
"That's hard to say," Amuro Toru unscrewed the cup lid, his eyes flashed with a playful and cruel smile, "You know, I've been displeased with that guy for a long time..."
"It doesn't matter if you want to cut him into pieces. Last time I chased him with that face for so long, I couldn't kill him," Chi Feichi looked away with an indifferent look, "He can withstand the tossing and is very durable. You can use a little more force."
"Puff..."
Toru Amuro turned his head and sprayed the water in his mouth to the side. He coughed twice before catching his breath. He held the thermos in one hand and wiped the water stains from the corners of his mouth with the other hand. He complained silently, "Don't tell those black humor jokes when others are drinking water. It's easy to make others choke..."
"Sorry," Chi Feichi apologized insincerely and took out a cigarette box from his pocket, "But I'm just telling the truth."

Thinking about the past of ‘Rakjiu and many members of the organization hunting down Akai Shuichi’, Toru Amuro had to admit in his heart that Akai Shuichi was really tough. He did not refute Chi Feichi’s words, and drank two sips of water in peace. After Chi Feichi lit a cigarette, he asked, “By the way, you deliberately behaved like that today. Does he suspect that there is cooperation between you and me?”
“When the FBI agents secretly monitored me before, I called the police. Although most people would ask the police for help when they encounter trouble, it is normal for me to do so, but this may make others think that I am willing to trust the Japanese police, and my father has been providing financial support to Japanese judicial institutions, especially the police for many years. I thought I could find out if I checked," Chi Feichi whispered, "If he thought I might be involved in those things, based on these two things, he would definitely suspect whether I was standing with the Japanese police or the public security... I did this today because I didn't want him to see my cards too early."
"But you have seen his cards, right?" Amuro Toru said thoughtfully, "You didn't tell him your identity, and you didn't even want him to see that you had cards in your hand, but you kept in touch with him. Could it be that you just wanted to find out what cards he had? "
"Whoever calculates the cards of each party first can gain an advantage in the game. Of course, I am interested in finding out what cards he has," Chi Feichi confessed, "but If he hadn't asked me to learn cooking, I wouldn't have had too much contact with him."
"Why?" Amuro Toru asked puzzledly, "Don't you want to find out what he has in his hand? I thought you were actively approaching him at the beginning!"
Chi Feichi smoked expressionlessly, "I have to quietly warn him from time to time and tell him not to show his hand in front of me, otherwise I have to consider whether to expose him, which is very troublesome."
Amuro Toru felt that it was a kind of "trouble" that he couldn't understand. He was choked and closed the lid of the thermos cup with a black line. He whispered to change the subject, "By the way, one of the six smuggling forces that gathered in Yokohama not long ago was recently attacked by the Japanese public. The crackdown by the police has arrested their top brass. The police undercover in the smuggling group provided the police with evidence of their crimes. This smuggling group will soon only exist in news reports. Because you took away the recording evidence collected by the undercover police at the smuggling meeting, the police have not been able to find the recording chip afterwards. His person in charge believes that the chip may have fallen into the hands of a smuggling group and it is no longer safe for him to go back. He decided to withdraw him directly to the second line. This is also the result I want to see, so I did not interfere. In addition, according to your previous request, the public security committee and I did not share intelligence with them, and of course did not tell them the whereabouts of the recording chip. "
