Chapter 37 Haibara Ai: Actually, I Came for the Feast
Da Shan Mi was startled by Hissashi suddenly popping out its head, but he tried to calm down and still called out, "Move it, bring all the cages down, let Young Master Hissashi take a look!"
The driver and the people waiting beside immediately prepared to move.
"Tell them to wait a moment!"
"Wait."
Hissashi and Chi Feichi spoke almost simultaneously.
Da Shan Mi and the others were puzzled, but they stopped anyway.
Chi Feichi took out his Mobile Phone and walked aside, pretending to answer a Phone Call, and said in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
The others couldn't hear Hissashi's voice, but he could, and he felt that Hissashi didn't sound too happy.
"Master, this thing is so big, I can't swallow it. My mouth can only open this much at most..." Hissashi tried hard to open its mouth wide at Chi Feichi, demonstrating for Chi Feichi, "This much!"
Da Shan Mi, who was waiting in front of the Truck, was startled, "Young Master Hissashi, be careful!"
"Don't worry, it's okay." Chi Feichi stopped Da Shan Mi from coming over, and then said to Hissashi with black lines all over his face, "I know how big a Red-Banded Krait's gape is, no need to demonstrate. I'll cut the Bamboo Rat smaller for you."
Hissashi was still not happy, and asked very seriously, "There's another more important problem, does this thing eat Snake? If you put a few of these things at Home, I'm afraid they'll crawl out of the Cage, and when you wake up, I'll be gone..."
Chi Feichi: "They eat Bamboo."
Hissashi breathed a sigh of relief, "Vegetarian... That's good, that's good."
"However, Bamboo Rats can bite Snakes to death," Chi Feichi added, "Probably because they think Snakes are not as delicious as Bamboo."
Hissashi suddenly excitedly darted out from Chi Feichi's collar, "Are they buying food? This is murder! Murder!"
...
The matter was finally resolved.
Da Shan Mi did not disturb Chi Shinnosuke, but made a Phone Call to a person in charge of real estate at Shinchi Group, and found a vacant Open Ground for Chi Feichi, specifically for keeping Bamboo Rats and raising Bamboo Rats.
Simple Sheds were set up, and Bamboo Rats were sent down cage by cage.
Bamboo arrived, feeders arrived, construction workers arrived, and they began to build a small-scale breeding point.
Chi Feichi suddenly realized that his cheap Father's free-range approach was not without reason.
If anything happens, just casually find a person in charge of a Shinchi Group subsidiary... maybe this is the correct operation.
Da Shan Mi gave instructions for a while, and seeing that the arrangements were almost done, he nodded in satisfaction, and walked to Chi Feichi's side, "Young Master Hissashi, everything has been arranged, do you see if there is anything else that needs to be arranged?"
Chi Feichi stepped forward, freed up an empty Cage, picked out the two Bamboo Rats that he could hear speaking, and put them in the Cage, "These two cannot be eaten, take good care of them."
Da Shan Mi looked at the person in charge of feeding, and the other party immediately took the Cage and placed it aside specifically.
Chi Feichi picked two for Da Shan Mi as a gift, and also packed two in a small Cage. On the way back to the Apartment, he bought some Seasoning and Vegetable Dish. As soon as he got Home, he received a Text Message from Haibara Ai.
Haibara Ai: [Tomorrow is the school festival, we start our holiday this afternoon, have you returned to the Old Castle?]
Chi Feichi: "..."
In the morning, he was still sighing that this group of elementary school Students finally went to school properly, but he didn't expect there to be so many holidays in their daily lives.
He took a Photo of the Bamboo Rat and sent an Email over.
Haibara Ai's Text Message: [Such cute little Rabbits!]
Chi Feichi's Text Message was sent a second later: [Not back, I'm at Home, do you want to come over for a Feast later?]
Silence.
Haibara Ai didn't reply for a long time.
Chi Feichi contacted other people again.
Zhi Ming Fukuyama could not be notified, he was still hiding the fact that he was not at the Old Castle from Zhi Ming Fukuyama.
Kuroba Kaito could be told, and asked to come over for a Feast if he was free, but he was going to school today, so he probably couldn't come.
Among the rest who had Contact Information, Suzuki Sonoko should also be told, after all, they chatted quite well in the Magic Enthusiasts Chatroom.
Mouri Ran could be skipped, they were not familiar enough.
Koizumi Akako had helped before, so he had to say something, and send two Bamboo Rats over when he had time, or invite her to a meal.
Thinking about it, Chi Feichi turned on the Water Tap and put Water in the Vegetable Sink, then went to the drawer in the Living Room to find the Red Crystal Name Card.
Hissashi glanced curiously, and immediately laughed, "Hahaha... There's only a Name on the Business Card, not even a Phone Number left, that red-haired girl is quite good-looking except for not having Scales, how can she be so silly, hahaha..."
Chi Feichi glanced at Hissashi, rubbed the raised gold-plated Name on the Business Card with his finger, and found that the gold Character slowly turned red. When the Character became almost the same Color as the Name and was almost invisible, he asked aloud, "Is this how you communicate? Can you hear me?"
"Um... I can hear you, is there anything?" A clear female voice came from the Card.
Hissashi: "..."
"I ordered a batch of Bamboo Rats from China, I'll treat you to Bamboo Rat when you're free, or have someone send you a few, just as thanks for your help last time."
"I still have to go to school, another day, let's chat another day when we meet, and then eat," Koizumi Akako said calmly as usual, "I'll contact you when I'm free."
"Okay."
Communication was cut off, and the Character on the Business Card slowly turned back to gold.
Hissashi forgot to flick its Snake Tongue, staring blankly at Chi Feichi putting the Business Card into his pocket, then looking at the Bamboo Rats in the Kitchen that were as big as Rabbits, and then thinking of Kudo Shinichi who had become a child... suddenly felt that this world was very strange.
"Hissashi, don't provoke this person either," Chi Feichi turned to go to the Kitchen, "How much do you want to eat?"
Hissashi quickly shook its Head, dispelling the dazed feeling, and threw all the doubts to the back of its mind, and followed happily, "Half! I want to eat half!"
"Okay." Chi Feichi turned off the Water Tap and immersed the Cage directly in the Water Sink.
Snakes have strong digestive abilities, so eating a little more is not a problem.
However, it was time to popularize some new knowledge for Hissashi.
"Humans slaughter Bamboo Rats, there is Water Submersion Slaughtering Method, which is the method I used, and there are also Electric Shock Slaughtering Method, Heart Air Injection Slaughtering Method, Cervical Fracture Slaughtering Method, Drug Induced Death Slaughtering Method..."
Hissashi listened to the calm voice, couldn't help but raise its eyes to look at Chi Feichi, and saw Chi Feichi's expressionless cold face, its body climbing onto the Table Edge slipped: "..."
Sure enough, humans are the most terrifying creatures!
"If you encounter a Bamboo Rat, don't compare teeth with it. Bamboo Rats' teeth are very strong, and your Toxin can't poison it to death, and you might be bitten to death," Chi Feichi saw that the two Bamboo Rats in the Cage were no longer struggling, waited for a moment, picked up the Cage and took out the Bamboo Rats, took a Small Knife and skillfully opened their abdomens and skinned them, "The best way is to use the fastest speed, avoid its teeth, wrap around its neck, and tighten it to suffocate the Bamboo Rat."
"If you get bitten, don't panic, wrap around the Bamboo Rat's head and neck in turn, bend its head towards its back, and then push it forward forcefully to dislocate the head from the first cervical vertebra, and the Bamboo Rat will quickly die of breathlessness. I'll demonstrate it for you another day."
Hissashi lowered its head and looked at its Snake body, satisfied, and comfortable, "Fortunately, my body is flexible enough and agile, it's impossible to break my cervical vertebra!"
"So, to deal with Snakes, humans generally choose to kill them by throwing them to death or cutting off their heads. They can also be drunk to death with liquor, the latter is suitable for making Snake liquor," Chi Feichi processed the Bamboo Rat while saying calmly, "If you want to make food, cutting off the head is the most convenient, because after bleeding, you can directly tear off the entire Snake Skin from the fracture."
Hissashi: "..."
"Most Snakes are applicable, but Golden Ringed Snake and Red-Banded Krait are different. For these two types of Snakes, skinning should start from the tail." Chi Feichi cut off half of the processed Bamboo Rat, and also helped to cut it into several pieces, and put it in front of Hissashi.
Hissashi looked down at the pile of Raw Meat, this Meat placed at its mouth, why was it not fragrant anymore?
...
Half an hour later, the Clear Stewed Bamboo Rat in the Pressure Cooker emitted a Fragrance.
After Hissashi slowly finished eating the Raw Meat in front of it, with a bulging Big Belly, it lay motionless beside the cutting board to digest food.
Chi Feichi sent Hissashi back to the Room, and by the way cooked Rice. Just as he was considering whether to stir-fry another Vegetable Dish, the Doorbell rang.
At the Entrance Hall, just as he picked up the Receiver, before he had time to ask, he heard Genta's loud voice outside, "Elder Brother Chi, open the door! It's us!"
Ayumi: "We're here to save the little Rabbit!"
Chi Feichi silently put the Receiver back in place, opened the door and saw that five elementary school Students were indeed standing neatly at the Entrance, "Come in."
Uh...
Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi were affected by the calm Aura, and the firm expressions of 'we must save the little Rabbit' became dazed.
"H-Hello!" Mitsuhiko bowed.
"It's okay." Chi Feichi rummaged out Disposable Slippers from the drawer under the shoe cabinet.
"Huh?" Genta stretched his neck and sniffed, "What's that smell? It smells so good..."
Ayumi sweated, "Genta..."
Mitsuhiko smiled awkwardly, "But it really smells good, we haven't had Lunch yet."
Haibara Ai wanted to cover her face. It was Genta and Mitsuhiko who volunteered to come, and the most unreliable ones were also them. She calmed down and looked up at Chi Feichi, "I... I was originally planning to come over by myself..."
Seriously explaining that she originally had no intention of forcing her way in.
Moreover, this smell was really fragrant.
Conan laughed dryly in his heart, if he had come, the result would still be the same, "Don't worry about it, can't you smell the Meat Fragrance? I guess it's already stewed."
Haibara Ai: "..."
"It's already stewed," Chi Feichi explained, "But that's not Rabbit, it's Bamboo Rat."
"Ba-Bamboo Rat?" Haibara Ai asked in confusion.
"Isn't it Rabbit?" Ayumi turned her head to look at Haibara Ai in confusion.
"What is Bamboo Rat?" Genta was still sniffing, "It smells so good."
"A kind of food," Chi Feichi directly ignored the two terms 'Animal' and 'creature', "Low fat, low cholesterol, high protein, and also contains a variety of nutrients. It is said that it can also promote the formation of white blood cells in the human body, promote human Hair growth, enhance liver function, prevent arteriosclerosis, and delay and fight aging... It's actually very suitable for Doctor Agasa."
Haibara Ai was embarrassed for a while, what to do if she recognized the wrong creature...
Serious and calm face: "Actually, I came for the Feast."
Genta: "Me too!"
Mitsuhiko was stunned for a moment, "That... actually, me too."
Ayumi looked at the three, so should she tell the truth, or cooperate with her little friends' lies?
"Okay, let's all try it together," Conan transformed into a problem baby in the next second, "Bamboo Rats seem to live in China, did Elder Brother Chi order them from China?"
"Yes," Chi Feichi waited for a group of elementary school Students to enter the door, closed the door and walked to the Kitchen. The knowledge reserve of the famous Detective was really not small, "I asked my Father to help order a batch, you guys sit down first, I'll stir-fry two more Vegetable Dishes."
"Need any help?" Haibara Ai asked proactively.
"No need," Chi Feichi entered the Kitchen, "There are no beverages in the refrigerator, but I bought Oranges, I can help you squeeze some orange juice."
