Chapter 77 Amusement Park
Conan Edogawa left decisively because after a whole day of observation, he was sure that Hatori was the only one who was not a member of the organization.
He had met several members of the Black Organization, and while they all had different personalities, none of them were like Hatori Yui. He wasn't as sharp as Gin, nor as perceptive as Bourbon. Even Haibara Ai was very sensitive to others approaching him.
He is indeed an ordinary person.
In this case, Vermouth had other purposes in approaching him.
So, what is there for a newly enrolled law student that is worthy of the Black Organization's attention?
After much deliberation, Edogawa Conan concluded that it was related to Higashino Hiroshi. Perhaps the organization was trying to use Hatori's identity to get close to Higashino Hiroshi, and Vermouth was observing his lifestyle, ready to replace him at any time.
If this were true, Hatori would likely be in danger. Just like Dr. Aishide before her, Vermouth intended to kill him directly before disguising herself as him. If the FBI hadn't intervened and staged this drama, Aishide Tomoaki's grave would have been well-deserved.
Find someone to secretly protect Hatori Yuiichi.
Conan Edogawa frowned and thought, then called Shuichi Akai and told him his speculation.
After listening to this, Akai Shuichi said, "Your speculation is not without reason. The organization's previous new sake didn't work, so they will probably resort to other means. Using a disguise to approach the Tono family is the easiest way." He paused and said, "Don't worry, I will find someone to protect Hatori Yui. At worst, we can just fake his death and get away like before."
Edogawa Conan nodded.
However, he did not consult Amuro Toru about this matter, mainly because he was not sure whether the organization would really replace Hatori Yuiichi. In the absence of sufficient information, Mr. Amuro would not take the initiative to disclose it to him.
So he could only wait for definite news and then go to Mr. Amuro to confirm.

After another week, Dong Yexi had become accustomed to life with crutches. He also figured out a way to walk without adding pressure to the other leg, and his movements were more agile than before the injury.
At this time, Anda Shizuku gave him two tickets to the amusement park, saying it was a benefit from the magazine, but because he was busy finishing his manuscript at the end of the month and had no time to go, he gave them to Higashino Hiroshi and asked him to take Hatori Yui to play together.
Higashino Hiroshi was very touched at first, but when he heard Ando Shizuku ask him to perform fixed actions at several scenic spots and take photos, he just wanted to throw the ticket back in Ando Shizuku's face.
Not going!
Adachi Shizuku pleaded, "Please, please, it's just a few simple moves. I just want the images for reference." He added, "I'll also give you a night in a five-star couples hotel next to the amusement park, how about that?"
Dong Yexi rolled his eyes silently and thought: Do I still need this little money?
However, it would be nice to go to the amusement park with Hatori. Besides, if he were to treat everyone, Hatori might not agree.
So Dong Yexi stretched out his hand and said, "Give me the ticket."
Adachi Shizuku immediately handed over two tickets with both hands.
Dong Yexi took a look and twitched his lips. Well, this is originally a package deal between the amusement park and the hotel, which includes accommodation and entrance fees.
Anda Shizuku continued in a servile manner, "Of course, if you'd like, you can also take a couple of photos for me in the couple's suite..."
Dong Yexi: "Get lost!"

When Hatori Yui received the invitation from Higashino Hiroshi, he was a little surprised and a little at a loss.
He has never been to an amusement park.
What to do at the amusement park?
So, he went online overnight to look up experience posts and make a guide, including which rides in the amusement park were fun, how to queue, what delicious food was there... He wrote two full pages.
After dawn, he got up early and made some sandwiches that were easy to carry around, just in case Dong Yexi didn't have breakfast or got hungry after playing.
When the appointed time came, Dong Yexi's car appeared downstairs on time, and he hurried downstairs with his things.
As soon as he got in the car, Dong Yexi sniffed like a puppy and asked, "Did you bring any delicious food?"
"Teriyaki chicken sandwich." Hatori Yui took out the lunch box from the bag, opened it, and handed it to him. "The chicken is still hot."
The aroma of teriyaki chicken fills the entire car. Dong Yexi swallows his saliva and reaches out to grab one. He tells himself: I've already had breakfast, so I'll just try one.
Then, after eating one, he took another.
It's not my fault for being weak-willed, but the chicken was so delicious! And I'd already digested the porridge I had for breakfast.
Higashino ate heartily. Hatori Yuiyi took a cup out of the bag, poured him a glass of water, and handed it to him. "Have some honey lemon tea. Be careful not to choke."
Dong Yexi took a sip from the cup and sighed in his heart for the Nth time, Yu Tori is really thoughtful!
When they arrived at the amusement park, the bodyguards unloaded a wheelchair from the car. Dong Yexi's leg hadn't healed yet, and it was unrealistic for him to use crutches to play in such a large amusement park.
Hatori Yui pushed the wheelchair and turned to look at the plainclothes bodyguards following them.
Higashino Xi sat leisurely in his wheelchair and said, "They can do their thing, and we'll do ours." He patted Hatori Yui's arm, pointed forward, and shouted, "Let's go!"
Hatori Yui paused, then started running, pushing the wheelchair.
"Woohoo~" Dong Yexi happily opened his arms and cheered, attracting the attention of people around him.
He looked expectant, no older than five years old.
No, today's five-year-old children have seen much more of the world than he has, he is not as good as them.
The amusement park was crowded on weekends, and there was a long queue at the entrance. However, Dong Yexi, who was in a wheelchair, enjoyed a special passage.
"Even though I'm injured, there are still benefits like this?" Dong Yexi said with a smile, "If I come here in a wheelchair in the future, can I still enjoy this treatment?"
Hatori Yui shook his head helplessly. Who would curse themselves?
Higashino Hi hadn't been to an amusement park many times, and originally planned to just play wherever he wanted, but when he heard Hatori Yui say that he had made a travel guide, he gave the initiative to him and let him decide what to play.
Last night, Hatori Yui had compiled a route based on others' experience. However, using the special passage saved them a lot of time, so he made some adjustments, moving the popular attraction he'd been planning to skip to the front of the queue. Taking advantage of the lack of crowds, he quickly led Higashino Hii to the line. After that, they could try the other attractions along the route.
It's true, planning a trip is incredibly useful. At least Higashino Higashi felt that having a clear goal and knowing where to go next was much more interesting than just wandering around the garden. He also enjoyed the itinerary Hatori had arranged. He hadn't really set his mind to it, anyway.
So he said they were a perfect match.
After playing for a whole morning, Dong Yexi felt a little tired even though he was sitting in a wheelchair.
I'm tired of shouting.
Hatori found him a seat under a awning and then went to buy some snacks, which were essential for the campus. Before leaving, he double-checked that the bodyguards were nearby and that his senior was safe.
I guess...
After thinking about it, Hatori Yui decided to go and come back quickly.
As for why he didn't let his bodyguard buy it, it was because he felt that the bodyguard was much more powerful than him.
A breeze blew, and Dong Yexi couldn't help but close his eyes. After playing, his body was slightly sweaty, and the warm wind made him feel particularly comfortable.
After a while, he opened his eyes again and looked at the blue sky, feeling very happy.
Ah~ The weather is so nice~ Such a nice day, perfect for a date!
Not long after, the system task was updated. The smile on Dong Yexi's face disappeared instantly.
【Upcoming Event】:Amusement park explosion and death
【Murder weapon】: Bomb
Cause of death: Excessive blood loss
[Suspect]: Chen Yongxixiong
[Death Countdown]: 00:29:59.59
Dong Yexi raised his eyebrows.
This is really strange. The system actually directly gave the murderer without using a few more people to mislead him.
Dong Yexi immediately clicked on the name. He wanted to see what kind of person could get special treatment from the system!
[Chen Yongxixiong]: Male, 42 years old, unemployed. His antisocial psychology stems from dissatisfaction with life.
Dong Yexi frowned. Previously, the system hadn't directly indicated the gender of characters when introducing them. It could only be determined through their identities, such as "ex-wife," "ex-husband," "son," or "wife." Beyond that, it was purely on one's own analysis. This was the first time the system had clearly identified the murderer's gender and age.
Why? Because he's a sociopath, so he gets treated specially?
Dong Yexi was puzzled.
Just as he was wondering, his attention was attracted by a man in a gray coat holding a gift box in his hand.
Seeing that man walking towards a group of children, Dong Yexi's eyes darkened and he shouted loudly: "Hey, uncle over there. Where did you buy that gift box in your hand?"
The man turned and looked at him.
Dong Yexi showed a haughty expression and said, "Master, I like your box. I want to buy it. Please name a price."
Since he has an antisocial personality, he must also hate the rich, right? Compared to blowing up children, blowing up this rich young man should make him more excited.
Sure enough, after hearing Dong Yexi's words, the man walked towards him quickly.
Dong Yexi raised his chin and said proudly, "How much?" Even though he was sitting in a wheelchair and being looked down upon by the man, the person on the other side could feel the disdain in his eyes.
The man's breath hitched, and he opened his mouth to say a number. It was a normal price, not deliberately high.
Dong Yexi sneered and signaled the bodyguard to give him money.
After the man got the money, he stuffed the box into Dong Yexi's arms and hurried away.
Dong Yexi immediately signaled the bodyguard to follow him, and then took advantage of the cover of the table to gently lift the lid.
Since the murderer was running around with the bomb, it probably wasn't the type that would explode at a flick of the wrist, otherwise he would have been killed first. However, caution is not a bad thing, and he still had to consider his own life.
Sure enough, there was a C4 bomb inside. That person was Chen Yongxixiong.
The bodyguards became nervous when they saw the bomb inside.
Dong Yexi whispered, "Remain calm and don't arouse the murderer's suspicion, otherwise I will die early." He stretched out his hand and said, "Give me a knife."
The bodyguard captain immediately handed over a functional knife, and then watched Dong Yexi cut the line in one second, and almost fainted from lack of breath.
Dong Yexi is a bomb disposal expert, so dismantling this is no small feat. It can be said that as long as the bomb is placed here, it is safer than anywhere else.
He looked at the captain of the bodyguards, nodded slightly, and said, "It's time to close the net."
The captain of the bodyguards twitched his mouth, took out a walkie-talkie, and ordered the people who had gone over to take action.
Dong Yexi smiled slightly and felt very happy.
It feels so good to say this! I feel so good!
