Chapter 074 KTV
After Hatori Yui left, Higashino Higashi was left without someone to chat with. Furthermore, because his knees couldn't bend for the time being, he had to sit in a wheelchair with his right leg straight, which was exhausting. So he could only go back to bed.
A moment later, Tia Fujitsuka knocked on the door and came in, followed by a doctor. "Second Master, this is Dr. Ayana Hayama. I'm here to remove your cast and do a follow-up check."
Dong Yexi looked at the capable lady curiously and asked, "Dr. Sugita was the one who always checked my brother before, wasn't he?"
Ayana Hayama smiled slightly: "Sugita is my senior, but we are good at different things. I am better at orthopedics."
"I see. Then I'll leave it to you." Dong Yexi said with a smile.
Tian Fujizuka and Ayana Hayama helped Higashino Hiroshi out of bed and went to the CT room for an X-ray.
Dong Yexi thought to himself: If I had known this, I wouldn’t have gone to bed with him.
The house is so well-equipped that you can even invite a doctor to your home.
"The recovery is good, and the plaster can be removed." Hayama Ayana said as she looked at the film, "However, to prevent joint instability, a splint will be needed, so you may need to lie down for more than a month. Try to walk less for a while, and resume exercise later."
Dong Yexi nodded obediently, wailing in his heart: I still have to grow mushrooms at home for more than a month~
Since they were already there, Ayana Yuyama decided to go see Higashino Xu and found that he was recovering well. She said that Higashino's nutritionist was very good and took good care of his body. In the end, his recovery time would definitely be faster than expected.
After that, Dong Yexi stayed at home for more than a month and was tired of watching TV. When his eldest brother recovered enough to handle work in a short period of time, he could only move less.
During this period, Hatori Yui came to see him twice a week. This was already a high frequency, but Higashino Xi still felt that the days of recuperation were too difficult.
When Dr. Ayana Hayama told him that he could resume walking exercises, he immediately revived and called his friends in the club to go out and play together.
Considering that he couldn't walk too much, everyone unanimously decided not to arrange any outdoor activities, and just eat, drink, and go to KTV to sing.
When Higashino Hiroshi arrived at the restaurant they had agreed to meet at on crutches, Anda Shizuku couldn't help but say, "You're still thinking about having fun even though you're in this state? You're really working too hard!"
Dong Yexi found a place to sit down and rolled his eyes at him: "Why don't you try lying at home for a month?"
But Anda Shizuku said, "I can stay at home for a month without going out."
Toru Matsuzaki on the side said, "No wonder your stomach is so soft, it turns out it's because of lack of exercise." As he said this, he looked at his abdomen.
Anda Shizuku covered the flesh on her belly and said harshly, "I didn't eat yours!"
Matsuzaki Tetsu's eyes widened in disbelief, "Senior, you're confusing right and wrong, aren't you? Are the snacks I brought for ghosts?" He shook his head, pretending to be very sad, "Alas, every time I come across something delicious, I think of bringing some for you, but in the end..."
Anda Shizuku blinked, suddenly feeling a little guilty. He said angrily, "Well, since you brought it all here, wouldn't it be a waste if I don't eat it? At worst, I can just not eat it anymore!"
Matsuzaki Tetsu smiled and said, "That won't do. I'm responsible for all the fat on Senior's belly. You can't let him starve to death. I'll give it to you to eat!"
Dong Yexi, who was sitting opposite them: ...
It felt like being kicked by a dog while walking on the side of the road.
Damn it, if Hatori wasn't busy today, would it be his turn to eat this dog food?
After a while, Mima Toyama and several other newcomers arrived.
Higashino Xi did not call Okiya Subaru because he was afraid of calling him over and ruining this rare time to get some fresh air.
After eating and drinking, the group of people moved to the KTV and started howling.
Staring at Anda Shizuku singing passionately on the stage, Higashino Hiroshi felt that it was a mistake to come and sing today.
Of all the people there, except for Toru Matsuzaki and Mima Toyama, who were a bit better, the others were just trying to get him killed! Especially Adachi Shizuku, that singing voice, seriously, was so deafening that even a deaf person would curse him! He also loved hogging the microphone and singing any song.
Shizuku Ando sang several songs in a row, making everyone feel the pain of life. The reserved Japanese are really patient, and in the end, Toru Matsuzaki couldn't stand it anymore, so he went over to him and grabbed the microphone.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Toyama Mima's eyes went blank as she said, "Now I finally understand what level 'singing to death' means."
Higashino Hi's head was buzzing, and even when Anda Shizuku stopped, he still felt the noise in his ears. He said, "I can't take it anymore. I have to go out and relax." Then he walked out of the private room with a cane.
As soon as the door is closed, the world becomes quiet in an instant.
Higashino Hi thought: From now on, no matter who he listens to sing, he might feel like he is listening to heavenly music. Anda Shizuku is too scary!
Dong Yexi slowly moved to the bathroom and solved his physiological problem with difficulty. When he was walking back, he met an acquaintance.
It's Subaru Okiya!
"Ah, it's Higashino, what a coincidence." Okiya Subaru raised his hand and greeted.
Dong Yexi smiled in response, but he felt very embarrassed. What should he do? What if he knew they were having a club party and hadn't invited him? Would he feel excluded?
So, Dong Yexi decided to "strike first." He asked, "Are you here alone?"
Subaru Okiya shook his head and said, "Conan and his friends were going out to play, and they met me on the way and asked me to join them. I thought it was unsafe for a group of kids to go to a KTV, so I followed them."
Dong Yexi understood and came to be a nanny.
He smiled and said, "Which one are you in? I haven't seen Conan in a while, say hello to him."
"Okay." Subaru Okiya brought him to their private room and was instantly welcomed by the children.
The kids in the Junior Detective League were all very friendly, and since they had eaten hotpot together before, it was enough to develop into friendship.
Yoshida Ayumi and the other two surrounded Higashino Higashi, looking at his injured leg with great concern. They asked him about the process of injury and explained the precautions for recovery. Their adult-like way of speaking made Higashino Higashi very happy.
However, Haibara Ai did not come, probably because she was not interested in these activities.
They were chatting happily as a group, while Edogawa Conan and Okiya Subaru were whispering to the side.
"This KTV should be clean." said Subaru Okiya.
Earlier, Edogawa Conan saw Gin's car nearby and suspected that the organization might have a base here, so he went to ask Amuro Toru. Amuro Toru firmly said no.
However, Toru Amuro would definitely not tell him such important information about the base. If something serious happened, he and Vermouth would not be able to arrive in time to rescue people.
Conan Edogawa thought about it and still felt something was a little suspicious. If it wasn't a base, it could also be a mission. Then it was even more impossible for Toru Amuro to tell him.
So he shared the information with Shuichi Akai.
Although it was possible that Gin was just passing by, adhering to the principle of "it's better to find a mistake than to let it go", he and Akai Shuichi still investigated the area, focusing on these entertainment venues. However, there was nothing to gain.
During this period, Conan Edogawa never saw Gin's car again.
"Maybe he really was just passing by." Edogawa Conan said reluctantly. He always felt that it was not as simple as just passing by, but he could not find any clues now.
Subaru Okiya consoled him, "Don't worry. If there's any trouble around here, he'll definitely come back."
Edogawa Conan nodded.
Children cannot be as indulged as adults and have to go back to do their homework after playing for a while.
Dong Yexi saw them out the door. At this moment, he suddenly felt a sense of danger and subconsciously took a step to the side. The next second, a flower pot fell from the sky and hit his feet.
Everyone:!!!
Dong Yexi:! Holy crap! This is murder!
He was so frightened that he almost fell down, but Subaru Okiya was quick to support him.
"Are you okay?" asked Subaru Okiya.
Dong Yexi's face was pale. He looked at the broken flowerpot with lingering fear and shook his head.
"It seems to have fallen from the third floor." Edogawa Conan looked up the moment the flowerpot fell, and someone flashed by the window on the third floor.
"This person has no manners!" Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya said angrily, "Throwing objects from high places is illegal!"
"That's right! If it falls from the third floor, it will kill people!" Ayumi Yoshida also looked scared.
Kojima Genta rolled up his sleeves and said angrily, "The third floor is also a KTV private room. Let's go find someone to settle the score!"
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya stopped him and said, "No. We should find the manager of the KTV first. If he doesn't handle it, we will call the police."
After the three children discussed the procedure, they returned to the front desk angrily and asked the manager to come out.
The front desk clerk thought they were children and of course didn't pay much attention to them, but when Higashino Hiroshi and Okiya Subaru came over, they instinctively felt that something serious was going on and quickly called the manager.
The manager also wanted to take advantage of the situation at first, but Dong Yexi was unwilling to suffer this loss, so he called the police directly and said that someone was murdered.
The police arrived quickly, including Miwako Sato and Wataru Takagi.
At this point, it was no longer possible for the manager to make a big deal out of a small matter, so he could only cooperate.
The group arrived at the private room on the third floor and found four children squatting at the door. They didn't know how long they had been squatting there. Seeing them coming, Yoshida Ayumi stood up and said, "We are helping to watch. No one has left!"
Takagi Shizuo smiled and stroked her hair, saying, "Thank you very much, it's been a great help."
When the children heard this, they were very happy.
Sato Miwako knocked on the door and said in a deep voice, "Police, there is something I hope you will cooperate with the investigation."
After waiting for a while, there was no sound.
She put her ear close to the door and heard no singing.
She frowned and pushed the door open. She saw smoke filling the private room, and five or six people sprawled out on the sofa.
Sato Miwako thought they had met with some misfortune, but when she walked in, she saw the ice-sucking suit on the coffee table and the intoxicated expressions on the faces of the people. Her face immediately turned ugly.
She stopped the children who wanted to join in the fun and asked them to stay away. She also asked Takagi Shigeru to call for help, and then went in and opened the windows to ventilate.
Edogawa Conan took the opportunity to sneak a peek inside, and when he came out, he leaned over to Okiya Subaru's ear and asked, "Are you organizing drug trafficking?"
Subaru Okiya nodded, then shook his head. "They wouldn't dare do that in countries like Japan, where drug laws are strict." After all, drugs are lucrative, and the organization has its own lab, so synthesizing drugs is easy. But they only dare to trade in troubled areas, especially in certain countries. If they're caught trafficking drugs, they might be exposed, even to the point of being completely ripped apart.
Conan Edogawa frowned and thought: Then this KTV has nothing to do with the organization.
