Looking at the open palms in front of him, Hondo Yingyou roared to the sky in grief and anger, his face full of despair.
"I'm so sorry." Xiaolan smiled sheepishly.
"Come on, hold on for another ten minutes."
On the side, Yuanzi smiled like a little devil and urged the other party to pick up the backpack on the ground and continue on the road.
"I said...you must have guessed that I am not very lucky, so that's why you play guessing?"
Hondo Yingyou picked up his backpack and looked at Yuanzi with tears in his eyes.
"Ha ha..."
Sonoko smiled guiltily after hearing this, and quickly changed the subject and said: "Of course not, let's go quickly, wait until we get to my Suzuki family's villa, and then have a good rest~"
"villa?"
Hearing what Yuanzi said, Xiaolan was suddenly startled, and her face became frightened: "Yuanzi! Didn't you say you asked for the cabin of Sister Ayako's friend's house?"
"Strange? Did I say that?" Sonoko put her index finger on her chin as if thinking, but her wandering eyes had already betrayed her.
"Could it be that...we are going to...the villa where a case almost happened before..."
Xiaolan's face turned pale when she said this with her hands folded: "It's the one who plays the role of the bandaged man and is ready to harm others..."
"Ah... It seems that this kind of thing has happened before~" Yuanzi looked at Xiaolan and laughed awkwardly with a polite but guilty smile.
"No wonder when I picked you up, you told me that you wanted to go hiking on the mountain trails. That was your original idea."
Tangze looked at Yuanzi and shook his head helplessly.
"Hehe, but when I told Sister Ayako, she immediately agreed."
Sonoko hugged Ayako's arm and joked: "After all, it's the place where you two met for the first time and is full of memories~"
"So I'm the only one who doesn't know?" Xiaolan glanced at Yuanzi with an unkind look and said, "I'm going back!"
"That's impossible. After all, Lan, you are a road addict~ Are you sure you can go down the mountain smoothly?"
Yuanzi smiled evilly like a little devil: "If you accidentally get lost, it will be very scary in the forest at night~"
"Well..."
After hearing what many of her best friends said, Xiaolan stood there in a dilemma.
"Okay, don't scare Xiaolan."
In the end, Tang Ze couldn't bear it anymore and comforted him: "Don't be afraid. Although a case almost happened at that time, wasn't it stopped by me?
It's the same this time, with me here, you don't have to worry about safety."
"Too..."
Xiaolan thought about it and found that it seemed that if Tang Ze was there, going to that villa wouldn't be so difficult to accept.
So the group of people got ready and set off towards their destination again.
However, when everyone came to the suspension bridge where the "bandage man" encountered, they found that the suspension bridge in front of them had been broken, and the broken wooden bridge was hanging on the opposite cliff.
Only a cliff that ordinary people cannot cross is left in front of everyone.
"No way, how could this bridge..."
Yuanzi looked at the scene in front of him and said with a vigilant expression: "Do you think this was deliberately destroyed by some guy with evil intentions?"
"No, depending on the situation, it is really natural damage this time."
Tang Ze walked to the edge of the cliff, pointed to the place in front of him that was obviously sunken than the surrounding area, and said: "Look, this place is a lot smaller than the two sides.
It is estimated that the long-term rain caused the entire part of the bridge that was previously fixed to collapse."
"Is that so..." Xiaolan, who was frightened by Yuanzi's words, couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Tangze's words.
She was really afraid that some guy with evil intentions would deliberately destroy the suspension bridge, and another guy as scary as last time would appear.
"Let dad build a better bridge next time. The suspension bridge is really unreliable." Yuanzi made subsequent plans with some distress.
However, after hearing Yuanzi's words, Tang Ze smiled noncommittally and did not say anything.
Do you want to come here next time?
I'm afraid that after this time, you won't have anything to worry about coming to this mountain villa again...
Tang Ze was full of slander, but he still looked around at the situation, looking for the villa in his memory where this case happened.
Because there were some changes in the process of going to the mountain villa, and Tang Ze was not sure whether this was the case in his memory, so now his car is parked at the foot of the mountain.
And because he was driving, they didn't fall into "Stormhill" mode.
But now that he saw the collapsed suspension bridge, Tang Ze had confirmed that this was the case in his memory. So if he wanted to participate in the case, Tang Ze needed to take the initiative.
"This is really troublesome..."
While Karasawa was secretly observing, Ayako frowned slightly and looked at everyone and discussed: "Now we can't go to the villa to spend the night, so how about we return the way we came?"
"Huh? It took a lot of effort to get here..."
Hondo Yingyou collapsed when he heard this. He didn't care about the dust on the ground and sat on the ground directly: "At least...let me take a break..."
"Then take a rest and then return the same way."
Xiaolan smiled and suggested: "There is nothing we can do about this~"
But after saying this, anyone can see the smile from the bottom of his heart on the other person's face.
Obviously, this is the best news for someone who just wanted to go back.
"You just simply want to leave..."
Seeing the happy look of his best friend, Yuanzi rolled his eyes angrily: "But after finally going out for fun, is it necessary to waste a precious day's vacation in such a "anticlimactic" manner?"
When Yuanzi said this, she was a little discouraged and unwilling: "And I also want to eat the barbecue cooked by my brother-in-law..."
"How about we go back after having lunch here?"
Tangze looked at the situation in front of him and suggested calmly: "And this can also reduce the weight of my luggage. Although I can't spend the night in the mountains, it can still be regarded as wild camping.
These ingredients can no longer be brought back, so we can simply destroy them on the mountain, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone."
"good idea!"
It can be said that Tangze's proposal was strongly approved by Yuanzi, and the others also thought it would be a good idea to have a picnic here before leaving, otherwise they would be a little reluctant.
"It's not too late, let's get started!" Yuanzi said enthusiastically.
"Have you forgotten that barbecue requires an oven?" Ayako looked at her sister angrily and said, "Our stove is still in the villa."
"Eh?" Yuanzi immediately looked depressed after hearing this: "Then brother-in-law also said that he wanted to barbecue... How can he barbecue if there is no fire..."
"Sister Yuanzi, you are so stupid. Of course you borrowed it."
Conan pointed to the villa next to him with both hands: "Isn't there a villa there? We can just invite them to have a barbecue together. They will definitely be happy to lend us tools."
'What a great assist and a good teammate indeed!'
After hearing Conan's words, Tang Ze secretly gave him a thumbs up.
This wave of assists was really good. It can be said that it is a perfect example of "passing the pillow when you are sleepy".
The reason why Tang Ze proposed the barbecue was to guide everyone to the surrounding villas, where the case was about to occur, so that he could intervene in the case.
"You're the only smart kid!"
Being looked down upon by a primary school student, Sonoko was naturally furious. He rubbed Conan's head hard again, and then looked at the other's depressed face and comb-shaped hair, and felt happy again.
"Yo Xi~ Let's set off now!"
With brisk steps, Yuanzi turned around and walked towards the villa not far away, but the next moment, she was pulled back by Xiaolan's collar.
"What are you doing?" Yuanzi looked at Xiaolan strangely: "Lan, why are you dragging me?"
"Your bag."
Xiaolan angrily picked up the bag belonging to Yuanzi from the ground, patted it, and then handed it to the other party: "The previous game is over, you can't let Yingyoujun help you get the bag, right?"
"Oh yes...Sorry, sorry, I forgot." Sonoko smiled apologetically, then put on her bag and walked forward.
Because the large and small backpacks were removed, Bentang Yingyou's steps became much faster. Feeling the feeling of being as light as a swallow, he couldn't help but look sad and angry: "Sure enough, a person with bad luck like me shouldn't accompany you.
Play these games of chance!"
"Okay, let's go now. Let my brother-in-law cook barbecue for you later. It will be a masterpiece~"
Yuanzi chuckled and said, "You have such a small body, you better eat more."
The group arrived at their destination quickly without the burden of the main hall Yingyou, and the villa was not far away.
When Tang Ze and others arrived, they happened to see a car parked at the door of the villa, and the people in the car were getting out of the car.
“What luck! I happened to meet the owner of the villa here!”
After Yuanzi saw the three people getting out of the black car, he couldn't help but happily said to Xiaolan: "God is really helping me!"
"Yes, otherwise we really have no choice but to go down the mountain."
Xiaolan looked at the three people who got off the car and smiled slightly, "Then let's go over and negotiate with the owner of the villa now. I hope they are willing to lend us a place for barbecue."
"What's wrong with you guys?"
In the driver's seat, a long-haired woman wearing a pink dress got out of the car and looked at everyone and asked.
"Hello, this is what happened..." Tang Ze took a step forward to negotiate, and then explained the situation to the three of them.
"The bridge leading to that villa..."
The woman thought about it and said suddenly: "It seems that it is really broken..."
"Hmm, so I wonder if you can lend us the oven and garden." Karasawa smiled and said, "In return, how about giving us your lunch today?"
"Then we will be disrespectful." The man with glasses on the side heard this and said with a smile: "Having barbecue in a mountain villa is a rare treat~"
"That's right, it would be even better if it comes with a glass of beer." The man with hair standing on end like a hedgehog agreed, and the atmosphere suddenly became harmonious.
"Although we only got along for a short time, let's introduce ourselves. My surname is Tang Ze. What do you call me?
Because he didn't want to alert others, he didn't introduce his name. The surname Tang Ze was quite common in Neon. In addition, he immediately asked the question to the other party, so they didn't explore Tang Ze's full name.
And after this, no one will ask again in the future. After all, everyone just knows his last name by chance, and it is enough to call him by his name.
After introducing themselves, Tangze and others also knew each other's names.
The woman wearing a pink dress is named Jun Makino, and the man with glasses and medium-long hair is named Tianxuan.
As for the last one with the hedgehog hair, it is Kuramoto Yoji.
"Then let's go inside first." After getting to know each other, Makino Jun said with a smile: "Let's move the oven to the courtyard first, but do you have a charcoal fire?
We haven’t had a barbecue here in a long time, so we may be out of fuel...”
"We have charcoal with us."
Tangze, who had anticipated this action for a long time, had naturally made complete preparations so that he could carry out the action logically.
And with charcoal and ingredients, when there is no way to enter the villa due to the broken bridge, it is common sense to go to the villa next to you to borrow an oven, isn't it?
Under the leadership of the villa owner, everyone pushed open the door and entered the villa.
"It's amazing. This villa is really beautiful!"
After entering the door, looking at the surrounding decoration, Yingyou, the main hall, couldn't help but sigh.
"Leave the exaggeration to the rich people who built this villa."
Tiantangxiang laughed at himself when he said this, "We just took a chance and bought this villa cheaply. We are just ordinary people.
"Did you buy this villa cheaply?" Xiaolan was a little curious after hearing this.
"Yes, we are members of a band, that is, musicians."
Jun Makino explained with a smile: "At the beginning, we just wanted to find a quiet place where we could create music, arrange music and write lyrics."
"But what I didn't expect was that I actually found such a buried treasure." Tiantianxiang said with a smile: "We still find it a bit incredible until now."
"But even if it is a "buried treasure", there should still be considerable..."
Hondo Yingyu didn't say anything, but was interrupted by Kuramoto Yoji with a smile: "I know what you mean, but this villa is really very cheap.
After all, it is a villa with that legend. I heard that if it had not been sold at that time, it would probably have to be demolished, so we sold it at a low price and finally gave it to us at a cheaper price."
"Is there a legend?"
After hearing what Yoji Kuramoto said, Eyou and Xiaolan both had a hint of uneasiness on their faces.
As for Tangze, after hearing what the other party said, he showed a dead-eyed expression.
This is also an old routine in Ke Xue's cases. Whenever there is an old castle or a villa in a remote area, there will always be some weird legends about it.
Then the criminal will use the legend of the place as a basis to commit crimes and recreate the "legend" in order to escape the crime.
But it's a pity that this guy who is pretending to be a ghost is destined to be defeated in the hands of Tang Ze.
