1. A mold that forms a molded body substantially having a rectangular parallelepiped shape, the molded body having:
a first surface,
a second surface opposed to the first surface,
a third surface and a fourth surface that are opposed to each other and intersect the first surface and the second surface, and
a fifth surface and a sixth surface that are opposed to each other and intersect the first surface, the second surface, the third surface, and the fourth surface,
the mold defining a molding space that forms the molded body and comprising:
a pair of first mold parts each defining a corresponding one of the first surface or the second surface;
a pair of second mold parts each defining a corresponding one of the third surface or the fourth surface; and
a pair of third mold parts each defining a corresponding one of the fifth surface or the sixth surface, wherein:
at least one of the pair of third mold parts includes an upper mold part and a lower mold part, the upper mold part defining an upper part of the corresponding one of the fifth surface or the sixth surface, the lower mold part defining a lower part of the corresponding one of the fifth surface or the sixth surface, the upper mold part and the lower mold part being individually slidable, the upper part being closer to the first surface than the lower part is, the lower part being closer to the second surface than the upper part is,
the lower mold part protrudes toward the molding space with respect to the upper mold part so that a step portion due to a difference between a location of the upper mold part and a location of the lower mold part is formed,
the upper mold part is slidable relative to the lower mold part to make a size of the step portion decrease, and
the upper mold part is slidable in cooperation with the lower mold part in a state in which the step portion is formed or absent.
