At the entrance of the villa, Suzuki Sonoko excitedly urged, "Okay, let's check in quickly! After looking at the room, I also want to go to the Ice and Snow Festival venue to have a good time!"
The others were affected by Suzuki Sonoko's emotions, and their expressions that were frozen due to the severe cold were relieved.
Yuantai took the lead and rushed in the door, "Okay, we want to live in the biggest room!"
"It would be great if there were countless toys!" Mitsuhiko said excitedly.
Ayumi was also happy to go inside, "Is it like at Jiang Shenyuan Hotel?"
Mouri Kogoro followed up with half-moon eyes, "I asked when I called to book a room. There is no such thing here. There is only beer and a TV that can watch horse racing."
The three children replied.
"You didn't ask about the toys at all, did you?"
"I just care about whether I can watch the horse racing show and drink beer..."
"It's so bad!"
Haibara Ai looked at the three children who were causing Kogoro Mouri to have a headache. She was about to follow them when she suddenly noticed a resentful and cold gaze staring at her. She was startled and turned around to look around.
There was no one on the terrace beside me. On the street behind me, a family of three had just gotten off the bus. They should be travelers who were also preparing to check in. They seemed fine.
Is it an illusion?
"Xiao Ai, what's wrong?" Yuesui Nanatsuki saw Haibara Ai looking around, and he also looked around, and asked in a low voice, "Is there something wrong?"
"It's nothing," Haiyuan Ai was unsure and didn't say it out loud, "I just think the scenery here is beautiful."
"Really?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki looked around carefully and didn't think there was a particularly beautiful scenery anywhere. However, considering the novelty of the child's ideas, he didn't ask any further.
After a group of people checked in, they looked around the room, eagerly ate lunch, and then walked to the Ice and Snow Festival venue together.
Along the way, after Hui Yuan Ai walked out for a while, she would notice cold eyes staring at her. She looked back and looked around, but she didn't find anyone suspicious.
Slowly, even Keshui Nanatsuki and Conan noticed that eyes were staring at them from time to time. As they walked, they would look back from time to time to look around, and they would fall behind with Haibara Ai.
After the three of them noticed each other's strange behavior, they looked at each other and communicated in low voices as they followed the group forward.
"I said..." Koshimizu Nanatsuki looked at the two children following him, "You feel it, right? Is someone keeping an eye on us?"
Conan nodded seriously and looked around with the corner of his sight, "It's very strange. It doesn't look like a kind sight, nor does it seem to have much malice. And I tried to feel carefully which direction the sight came from, but
Sometimes it's in the back, sometimes it's on the left, sometimes it's..."
Haiyuan Ai felt carefully and found a cold gaze falling on her in front of her on the left. She immediately looked up and reminded in a low voice, "Ahead!"
There are villagers' houses on both sides of the street, and there is no exception there. There is an uncle shoveling snow in front of the house. He is turning back to talk to the family members inside. He does not look like a suspicious person.
"And every time we look over, there seems to be no suspicious people around us," Koshimizu Nanatsuki whispered, "It's really strange..."
On the roof of that house, Chi Feichi put on a white mountaineering suit and squatted half-crouched behind the eaves, as if invisible in the snow on the roof. He waited for a group of people to continue walking forward, and then walked along the roofs of each house until they arrived.
The other direction, stare.
Yamao Keisuke has been staying in the village, probably staying at a friend's house.
There was no movement at Tachihara's house this morning. Tachihara Fuyumi has already gone to the infirmary. It seems that Tachihara Fuyuma is not awake yet.
He was idle, so he might as well practice his tracking skills, and by the way... harass these people who had no intention of calling him to Beizawa Village.
A group of people arrived at the ski resort where the Ice and Snow Festival is located.
Haibara Ai didn't know if it was because there were so many people, which affected her perception. She felt that as soon as she arrived near the ski resort, that line of sight never appeared again.
Nanatsuki Koshimizu was dragged to the ski slopes by Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki, and Ai Haibara and Conan were also dragged to the ski slopes by the three children.
The three of them saw that there were too many people nearby and it was difficult to find the owner of that line of sight, so they decided to pretend not to know and blend into the fun group.
There are many children on the ski slopes. They are sliding down the high slopes on small sleds. Even if they accidentally fall, they just fall into the soft snow and burst into laughter.
The three children, Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko, played over and over again, getting more and more excited as they played, and soon they no longer had the time to take care of Conan and Haibara Ai.
Conan and Haibara Ai got a breather and followed Dr. Ali to look at the snow sculptures, paying attention to the passers-by on the street from time to time.
"Speaking of which, Xiao Ai," Dr. Ali looked at the two of them suspiciously, "you guys seem to be acting weird from just now..."
Conan hesitated whether to say it or not.
After arriving at the ski resort, the line of sight disappeared. They still didn't know what was going on. Apart from having one more person to worry about, there seemed to be no other help...
Haibara Ai looked at Nanatsuki Koshimizu, who was entangled with Suzuki Sonoko in the skating rink, and decided not to say anything yet, "Is it weird? It's just a normal viewing."
Although Nanatsuki-san can't escape for the time being, they have two detectives here and she, a person with keen senses, can always detect the guy who is secretly watching them.
"Really?" Dr. Ali thought that the two people looking around might be looking at the scenery, so he didn't ask any further, "By the way, Xiao Ai, Mr. Fukada gave you a camera. Haven't you always been looking for opportunities to take pictures? Why not today?
Bring the camera?"
Haibara Ai said calmly and truthfully, "It's a bit cruel to leave Brother Fei Chi alone in Tokyo. If we take some more photos to stimulate him, wouldn't it be even more cruel? Last time I took pictures of Edo
I showed him the video of Sichuan skiing, and he already seemed very awkward.”
Conan couldn't help but laugh when he thought of Chi Feichi's stinky face, but as soon as the smile appeared on his face, he quickly froze. He turned his head to look in one direction, caught a glimpse of a white figure, and immediately started to chase after it.
He followed them secretly and stared at them with that cold gaze. He wanted to see who they were and what they wanted to do?
Is there something you can’t just come to your door for? Can you still let me relax?
If he continues to be monitored like this, he won't be able to sleep well at night.
It’s simply unbearable!
In the duty room of the ski resort, Uemura Yoichi sat behind the window, yawned lazily, and looked at the panting little boy running outside, "Hey? My little friend, what's wrong with you? Are you separated from your family?
?”
Conan didn't answer and turned to look at the ground outside the duty room.
He felt that his line of sight was in this direction, and the white figure looked suspicious.
There is a lot of snow on the ground in the duty room, but there seem to be a lot of people coming and going here, leaving many footprints of different sizes. It is impossible to identify the footprints of the person staring at them, and it is impossible to get other information.
clue.
Judging from the body shape, the figure he captured at that moment should be a male. Although women wearing loose coats can also mislead others, the height of the other person does not seem to be short, and few women are that tall.
At the same time, it couldn't be the employee in the duty room. After the figure left quickly, he vaguely saw the employee still sitting behind the window.
"Kid?" Uemura Yoichi called again.
Conan retracted his thoughts and looked into the room from the door. After confirming that there was no white thing in the room, he raised his head and asked, "Uncle, where is the person who was standing here just now? I feel like he is someone I know. He wants to come over."
Look, where has he gone?"
"Well..." Uemura Yoichi recalled, "He didn't say anything."
"Then do you know him?" Conan asked repeatedly, "What is he doing here in the duty room?"
Uemura Yoichi blinked, "He was wearing a scarf. I couldn't see his face clearly, but his voice sounded strange. He must be a tourist who just came here. As for the reason why he came here, he asked me about the collection."
What time does the city close? I told him four o'clock in the afternoon."
Conan thought about it and asked, "What about the others? Did he ask any other questions?"
"No," Uemura Yo said, "I just asked this and left after asking."
Is that person going to the market for something? Or is there something wrong with the market closing time?
Conan frowned, turned around and ran towards the market.
"Hey! Little brother, please slow down, be careful not to fall!" Uemura Yoichi watched Conan leave with an anxious look on his face. He quickly laughed, picked up the landline receiver on the table, and dialed a number.
Conan was running towards the market when he suddenly stopped and turned around to run towards the duty room.
They were at the snow sculpture exhibition in the opposite direction of the market. The other party stared at them for at least three or four seconds. This was definitely not the 'just ask and leave' as the duty room staff said. Moreover, there was nothing to ask about the closing time of the market.
, most people will go back before the market closes.
Didn't the staff in the duty room think that person was strange? But when he asked just now, the staff in the duty room didn't look at all like, "That person is so strange." Instead, he tried his best to hint to him - "It's normal, no."
strangeness'.
Something's wrong!
At least the staff member's reaction was a bit strange, and he had to go back and confirm again.
"That's what I said..."
In the duty room, Uemura Yoichi was still on the phone with Chi Feichi. When he heard Chi Feichi on the other end of the phone saying that he might have exposed his secret, he smiled and said, "Isn't it possible?... Hey? I should say, 'That person
"It's strange to say this..."
Outside the door, Conan immediately stopped and stood in the shadows against the wall, looking up at the figure behind the window with a horrified expression.
Are you talking to someone on the phone?
And the other party has noticed the flaw that he may have realized?
"Don't worry, he's just a kid. He can't think so much. He has already run towards the market," Uemura Yoichi said with a smile, "You are thinking too much..."
On the other end of the phone, Chi Feichi's calm voice was very soft, "Then please pay more attention to them and don't let them be bullied."
"Don't worry..." Uemura Yoichi poked his head out of the window, and Conan was so frightened that he quickly hid behind the corner.
Uemura Yoichi didn't notice that Conan was back. He looked in the direction of the skating rink and the snow sculpture exhibition, smiling with his white teeth showing, "I will keep an eye on their movements!"
Conan: "!"
Could it be that the one who was staring at them just now...
No, no, that white figure just now is definitely not this staff member.
Are the two actually accomplices?
No matter what these people wanted to do, the thought of him actually asking that person's accomplices about the situation was so thrilling that he broke into a cold sweat.
