"So, it was your fault that the car overturned before, right?" Mitsuhiko glared at Genta, "You were too reckless. You should use your brain more before doing things!"
Ayumi was so anxious that she almost cried, "Don't make any noise."
Conan thought about the fact that the children didn't know that someone was watching them secretly. According to the characters of these three children, it would be strange if they didn't run out to play. He didn't want everyone to quarrel because of this, so he said to smooth things over, "Okay, let's first..."
"Are you saying that I don't use my brain?" Gentai was angered by Mitsuhiko and glared back at Mitsuhiko.
"Do you really know how to use your brain?" Mitsuhiko glanced at Genta with contempt.
"Of course I can!" Yuantai scolded back loudly, "Unlike you, you always play tricks! You always like to use hindsight!"
"What did you say?!" Mitsuhiko angrily approached Genta, "People like you Genta..."
Genta immediately shouted unwilling to admit defeat, "People like you, Mitsuhiko..."
Conan interrupted sharply, "That's it!"
Mitsuhiko and Gentai were startled and turned to look at Conan.
"It was my fault before, I shouldn't have lost my temper as soon as I came here," Conan softened his tone, but his expression was still very serious, "That's because during the day, Haibara, Sister Nanatsuki and I all noticed that someone was watching us.
Knowing that you sneaked out, Huiyuan and I were very worried that you would encounter bad guys, and the doctor and the others were still in the villa. They would be even more worried if they found out that we were missing, so I was so angry, but it was also because I failed to follow you in time.
You guys make it clear."
Mitsuhiko looked at Conan and softened his tone, "No, we shouldn't run around..."
Genta also glanced at Mitsuhiko and lowered his head.
When Conan saw that the two of them were still angry, he advised, "You two should stop arguing."
Mitsuhiko and Genta looked at each other, seeing the anger in each other's eyes, and felt even more annoyed.
"But……"
"Language is a sharp blade. If used improperly, it can become a dangerous weapon. And once you say it, you can't take it back." Conan interrupted again, looking at the two of them, "There are even people who have lost their lives because of misunderstandings.
good friend."
Genta and Mitsuhiko looked at each other, their eyes softened, and their faces became a little more apologetic.
Conan noticed the change in the attitude of the two people, and smiled with relief on his face, adding, "If you miss it, you will probably never see each other again."
Seeing that the two of them couldn't apologize for a while, Haibara Ai looked at the overturned snowmobile on the side of the road, "Anyway, we'd better contact the doctor first and let him find a way to find a car to pick us up."
Mitsuhiko hesitated, "Contact the doctor..."
Yuantai also whispered, "You will definitely be scolded if you do that."
"No matter whether you contact the doctor or not, you will still be scolded when you go back." Conan said speechlessly and took out his mobile phone.
"Didi!"
The light of car lights casts its light on the road behind.
A truck approached, honking its horn, slowed down and stopped.
The car window was lowered, and a middle-aged man in a cotton coat looked at the five children on the roadside, "Hey, kid, why are you still out so late? I thought I saw it wrong!"
Genta, Mitsuhiko and Ayumi awkwardly talked about the stolen snowmobile that overturned.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he got out of the car with a speechless expression and helped. He turned the snowmobile over and carried it to the truck. He also promised to take the five children back to the village along the way.
After catching a ride, Gentai and Mitsuhiko breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other quietly.
"I'm sorry, Mitsuhiko..."
"It's my fault."
When Ayumi saw the two apologizing to each other, a smile finally appeared on her face.
"That's good," Haibara Ai looked away from the two children and looked at the falling snow outside the car window, "I cried so much when I was watching "The Name of a Flower", and I kept saying what Jinta said to Meiko.
It’s too much, so you should remember not to say too much to your friends.”
"Yes, we know we were wrong."
Genta and Mitsuhiko accepted the criticism with low eyebrows.
"So that's it..." Ayumi remembered the plot of the story that had been changed into animation and said with emotion, "Rinta said that he didn't like ugly girls like Meiko. After that, Meiko passed away and was never seen again. He
It must be very hard, because I never had a chance to say the apology in my heart..."
Conan: "..."
Wouldn’t these three children understand that feeling just now?
"I said..." the middle-aged man driving the car couldn't help but said, "Do you kids watch that too?"
"Can't children watch it?" Yuantai asked.
"Yeah?" Mitsuhiko grasped the point, "Uncle, aren't you watching too?"
"That's animation," Ayumi reminded, "it's only reasonable for children to watch it, right?"
"Ahem..." The middle-aged man coughed awkwardly and explained, "Don't you know? It was originally a novel. It was changed into an animation after the novel was released. I bought the novel first and then read it a little bit.
Let me know what the animation is like, the result is almost the same as the story..."
Haibara Ai pretended to be casual and said, "Mei Yi in the anime is cute, right? Although I don't know why she has white hair, she looks cute..."
"Yeah," the middle-aged man couldn't help but smile on his face, "especially when she beat Renta with her fists, and..."
Wait, did he reveal the secret that he was actually chasing after every episode?
Haiyuan Ai looked at the middle-aged man in the front seat expressionlessly.
Her brother supervised the entire production of the animation, and the character design was also his handiwork. She felt that the character design and animation made the descriptions in the novel more vivid. Watching the animation is definitely worth it.
This middle-aged man made such a "just that" comment without conscience. Wouldn't his conscience hurt?
"Ahem..." The middle-aged man would not have thought that he had been deliberately tricked by Haiyuan Ai. He coughed in embarrassment and continued to save his awkward dignity as a middle-aged man watching cartoons. "Anyway, I think that one is more suitable."
Adults...at least it's suitable for people who are in high school or above, right? It's impossible for you kids to fully understand the emotions in it!"
"certainly not!"
"Please don't think of us as elementary school students who don't understand anything!"
Mitsuhiko and Genta couldn't help but want to refute.
They heard that story earlier than the people outside. That story was told to them by Brother Chi at the beginning when they were camping. How could it not be suitable for them?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Conan slandered, "You know, we wouldn't have quarreled just now." Worried that a certain middle-aged man had been criticized too many times, he got angry and kicked them out of the car. He took out his mobile phone and turned around and said, "Okay! Keep your voice down."
, I’ll call Sister Xiaolan and tell them to save them from worrying.”
"That's right," the middle-aged man said hurriedly, "You'd better call your family and tell them quickly."
Conan called Mao Lilan and told Mao Lilan what happened.
"... Got it, we will go back soon... Sister Xiaolan, please tell everyone not to worry."
"I will," Mao Lilan hesitated on the other side of the phone, "Conan, is Sister Nanatsuki going with you?"
"Sister Nanatsuki? No, no," Conan was a little surprised, "What happened to her?"
Haiyuan Ai leaned forward in the front seat and put his ear close to the phone to listen.
"She said she called Fei Chi to ask what gift she wanted. I saw her leaving the lobby of the villa. I thought she would be outside on the terrace, but when I went out to call Shinichi, I didn't see her outside."
Mao Lilan told the situation truthfully, "I went back to the souvenir sales office and asked Sonoko, and she said she didn't see Sister Nanatsuki. We also went upstairs to look for her. She didn't seem to have returned to the room. I called her later, but she
My cell phone is turned off..."
Conan's heart skipped a beat. It wouldn't be strange for Nanatsuki Koshizui to accidentally discover clues and follow him to investigate alone, but his phone wouldn't turn off anyway.
He suddenly thought about the people in this village who were spying on them. Could something happen?
"Just when we found the doctor, we found that the five of you were also missing," Mao Lilan said worriedly, "I called my dad, but no one answered the phone. I was just about to call you. If your phone number is also
If it doesn’t work, then we’ll have to go out and look for it separately…”
"No!" Conan quickly stopped, realizing that his tone was too serious, so he calmed down, "Don't separate yet, let's search around the villa together. After we go back, if we still can't contact Sister Nanatsuki, we can come together again
Find a way."
"Ah? But..."
"If we happen to miss you when we go back, wouldn't it be more troublesome?"
"Yeah, that's right, then let's meet up first."
"Well, don't worry, we'll be there soon."
After convincing Mao Lilan, Conan breathed a sigh of relief and hung up the phone with a sullen face.
Ayumi also leaned forward to the front seat like Haibara Ai, "Conan, what's wrong with Nanatsuki-san?"
"You won't have another friend who ran away, right?" The middle-aged man driving the car looked at the snow falling more and more outside the car window, "It's easy to get lost if you run out with such heavy snow at night."
Conan did not rush to answer the middle-aged man's question. He looked suspicious to everyone now, and he was not sure whether the man who said he would take them along would have bad intentions, so he asked, "Uncle, are you also from Beizawa Village?"
"
"Yes, I grew up in Beizawa Village."
"Then why are you driving back from outside so late? Don't you live in the village?"
"I built a hut in the back mountain to live by myself. I carved some owls and other things and sent them to the villa for sale. But today is not for delivery. I made an appointment with a friend to meet there..."
…
Beize Villa.
Chi Feichi and Koshizu Nanatsuki were wandering around the deserted streets of the village. Since the snow was getting heavier and heavier, the two of them did not go too far. They quickly returned to the house through the glass terrace door, and then went to the hall from the main entrance of the room.
Koshizui Nanatsuki looked down at the startup screen of his mobile phone and sighed, "If I had known better, I wouldn't have fooled around with you. If Xiaolan and the others found out that they couldn't contact me, they would definitely be worried..."
"It's all over."
Chi Feichi looked down at his mobile phone and said.
Fifteen minutes ago, the tracking program showed that transmitter No. 2 moved all the way to Beize Villa and stopped at Beize Villa eight minutes ago.
In other words, Yamao Keisuke walked here wearing the shoes with the transmitter.
"Mr. Chi."
Next to it, a group of men and women were sitting on the sofa in the lounge area of the hall.
Tachihara Fuyumi stood up and said hello, looked at Koshimizu Nanatsuki, and asked with a smile, "Have you finally met your friends?"
Koshimi Nanatsuki also recognized Tatehara Fuyumi, "You are from the infirmary..."
