After everyone purchased their supplies, they gathered at Qin Zhibo's detective agency.
While everyone was waiting for Qin Zhibo to change clothes, Hui Yuan Ai looked around the interior of the office and saw the metal disk hanging on the door.
"look."
Hui Yuan Ai raised his finger and let Conan see it.
"That's the symbol I saw on the school badge on his wallet."
Conan raised his head and looked at the metal disk, thoughtfully.
After Qin Zhibo put on his everlasting brown windbreaker, he also distributed the chocolate candies in the suitcase to everyone.
Mao Lilan and the three little ones thanked each other profusely and happily put the candies into their backpacks.
Seeing that the chocolate candies given by Qin Zhibo looked a bit like mushrooms, Moto Kojima suddenly had an idea and came up with an idea.
"How about we go pick matsutake mushrooms! My mother said now is the season for picking matsutake mushrooms!"
"That sounds good too!"
“I’m a little tired of living in the wild all the time, and something bad always happened when I was living in the wild before.”
The other two little ones echoed, disrupting the original step-by-step travel plan. Mao Lilan was a little unsure for a while, so she could only ask the oldest Qin Zhibo for advice.
"Mr. Qin, what do you think?"
It didn't matter to Qin Zhibo, as long as Conan was by his side.
"Let's see what Conan thinks. Wherever Conan is, I'll be there."
Conan was a little surprised that Qin Zhibo passed the ball to his side, but he still agreed.
"If you want to pick matsutake, I know a good place. There is Hunter Mountain in the northeastern suburbs from Mihua Town. I often went there when I was a child."
Before he finished speaking, Conan immediately noticed something was wrong from the doubtful eyes of the people in the circle.
"When you were a child?"×n
Conan quickly scratched his head and acted cute, "Haha~~ It was when I was younger, actually it was a year ago."
Qin Zhibo was used to this kind of situation and told everyone that since they had determined their destination, they should leave quickly.
Conan, who breathed a sigh of relief, and Haibara Ai, who walked behind specially, discussed with each other the matter of "putting on the vest".
This made Mitsuhiko in front of him a little concerned and couldn't help but look back again and again.
Because there were too many people this time, Qin Zhibo could not bring everyone with him in one car, so he had to take a tour bus to the hotel in Hunter Mountain.
The hotel staff arranged check-in first and then took the group up the mountain.
"Okay, this is the matsutake picking area, but in order to protect the ecology here, there are some restrictions on picking."
"Adults can only pick three, and children can pick two. Once you have picked them, the hotel will put them into the dishes for you."
"One more thing, you guys must not cross the two barbed wire fences in front."
As he said that, the staff pointed to the barbed wire fence deep in the forest, "That's a hunting area, and there are bears."
Hearing this, the three little ones looked stern. It was obvious that they had not seen "The Haunting of Bears" and were in awe of bears.
In order to retain tourists, the staff quickly said that the barbed wire fence was absolutely safe and they could rest assured.
After the staff left, Mao Lilan happily started picking with her three little ones.
Haiyuan Ai took a look at the surrounding environment and immediately wanted to find a place to rest.
Originally she didn't want to come out, especially if it wasn't the group led by Dr. Ari, but Narumi persuaded children of her age not to stay in the room all the time, so she came out.
After being admitted to Chengshi Hospital yesterday, Haibara Ai asked Chengshi to help bring some of her things from Dr. Ali's house to Chengshi Hospital.
These include primary school students' textbooks, homework books, and a laptop.
Cheng Shi was surprised that a child like Haihara Ai could actually play with a laptop that even many adults didn't understand.
"Xiao Ai, I always feel that you are different from other children I have met."
This was Aso Minoru's evaluation of Haibara Ai after they had only been together for one day, and her tone was somewhat adultish.
This also made Haihara Ai a little scared. She wanted to take advantage of this trip to think about how to get along with Dr. Cheng Shi, and cover her vest before Dr. A Li came back.
As for picking matsutake mushrooms, based on his understanding of Genta Kojima, he will definitely pick more and make up for his own share.
Also not looking for matsutake immediately were Qin Zhibo and Conan.
The two of them didn’t know Genta Kojima that deeply, but their understanding of matsutake was deep enough.
Qin Zhibo has a searching spell.
Conan has collected matsutake mushrooms here before, so he naturally knows where they grow and can pick them easily.
The key now is that Conan wants to ask Qin Zhibo something he wanted to ask before going to the United States.
"Uncle Qin, have you heard of the Necronomicon?"
"Necronomicon?"
After listening to Conan's words, Qin Zhibo, who was putting on the magic extractor and preparing to cast the finding spell, was stunned. At the same time, Haiyuan Ai, who was sitting next to him, was stunned.
This guy actually still remembers that incident.
Hui Yuan Ai was a little surprised by Conan's persistent thirst for knowledge, while Qin Zhibo shook his head.
"never heard of that."
This answer surprised Conan and Haihara Ai at the same time.
Because judging from the various situations the two of them had learned before, Qin Zhibo had every reason to know the "Necronomicon".
A U-M student who prefers occultism doesn’t know the most precious occult book in the U-M library?
What a ghost!
However, the two of them did not know that Qin Zhibo had never heard of the "Necronomicon".
"The Rite of the Corpse Eater", "The Secret of the Worm", and "The King in Yellow" are quite clear.
"What is the Necronomicon? Can you tell your uncle?" Conan's sudden mention aroused Qin Zhibo's interest.
Qin Zhibo suddenly asked him something in a serious and "kind-hearted" manner, which made Conan feel uncomfortable for a while.
"Actually... I also saw it on the Internet, saying that there is a mythological system called 'Old Mythology', which comes from this "Necronomicon"."
"Old myths?"
Qin Zhibo thought that Conan didn't believe in these gods and ghosts before, and suddenly wanted to know about these things. It must be related to the "Cthulhu" he mentioned recently.
"Is 'Cthulhu' also from the old mythology?"
Conan nodded and continued: "There is also the Cthugya mentioned by the believers in the last arsonist case."
"Oh? Is this happening?"
Qin Zhibo touched his chin and vaguely felt that he had discovered a big melon.
If Cthurgia and Cthulhu are both gods mentioned in the "Necronomicon", then this "Necronomicon" seems to be very important to me!
"Then have you heard of the 'King in Yellow'?" Qin Zhibo asked again.
Not far away, Haiyuan looked at the two detectives discussing occult topics with each other, feeling that the scene was a bit strange.
Who is it, and whose worldview has been led astray?
