"Where are you going, uncle?"

Maori Kogoro looked up and saw Chu Ming approaching slowly. He wiped his sweat and said, "It's Chu Ming. I'm sending Xiaolan and Sonoko out to play. I didn't know that I, a famous detective, would have to be their driver during my break! Don't you have your own drivers at the Suzuki Group?"

Yuanzi lay on the car, smiling and saying, "Uncle, don't be angry. I don't want the driver at home to take me home. It's a rare day off, and I have to drive that luxury stretch car. I feel like I'm being watched."

Chu Ming paused. This was too Versailles!

"By the way, Brother Chu Ming, why don't you go to Karuizawa with us? This weather is perfect for going out and playing!" Sonoko invited enthusiastically.

"Is it okay? I hope I won't disturb you." Chu Ming was thinking about how to get in. Isn't it like someone is offering you a pillow when you feel sleepy?

"Why would it bother you? It's more fun with one more person!"

Chu Ming handed the wine in his hand to Maori Kogoro: "Sorry to bother you then!"

Maori Kogoro didn't hesitate at all and happily took the wine and put it in the car: "Not bad, good wine. It's just right that we can have a good drink when we get to Karuizawa!"

After a while, Xiaolan also went downstairs holding Conan's hand. Conan was wearing a mask on his face and sneezed from time to time.

"Does Conan have a cold?" Chu Ming walked up and touched Conan's little head and found that his forehead was a little hot.

"Brother Chu Ming?" Conan's muffled voice came out from the mask. After he went back, he had been thinking about how to break through the organization's psychological suggestion and expose the news that Noah's Ark was taken away. But no matter how hard he tried, there was no way. He studied all night last night and found out that he had a cold this morning.

I wanted to stay home and have a good rest today, but Sonoko came to Xiaolan early in the morning to ask her to go on vacation in Karuizawa. What good plans can that bastard Sonoko come up with? He either looks for handsome guys or flirts with handsome guys. How could he let Sonoko go out with Xiaolan? So he has to go too! Go and keep an eye on her!

Sonoko looked at Conan, who was fully armed but still holding Xiaolan's hand tightly, and seemed to see the detective who used to stick to Xiaolan, and couldn't help but roll her eyes secretly.

In the car, Chu Ming sat in the passenger seat, and Conan huddled between Xiaolan and Sonoko, firmly sticking to his duty as the third wheel between best friends.

But Sonoko would not indulge him. Even with Conan around, she still whispered to Xiaolan.

"Ah? You want to use playing tennis to capture a man's heart???" Xiaolan shouted in surprise.

Conan sat in the middle with dead eyes and a look of unhappiness written all over his face. He knew it!

"Yes, yes, during this period, there were many college students playing tennis on the tennis court behind the villa. They were all handsome guys over 1.8 meters tall!" Sonoko covered her face with her hands, looking excited.

Xiaolan looked at him dimly: "In this case, how are you going to face Mr. Kyogoku?"

"What? I'm absolutely devoted to Zhen! Today, it's Xiaolan's turn to capture the man!" Yuanzi clenched her fists, looking like she was struggling. "Just think about it, Xiaolan, you wear tennis clothes, showing off your iconic figure, wait for the college students to take the bait, take a photo together, and then send a photo to that reasoning geek via SIDE. Humph, I don't believe he won't be jealous. A man who doesn't go to class for such a long time and occasionally shows up twice is really terrible!"

Chu Ming looked back from the rearview mirror of the car and saw Conan curled there with a resentful look on his face, saying: Thanks for the invitation, I'm in the car, I'm jealous.

"Shinichi won't be jealous... and I didn't bring any tennis suit..." Xiaolan racked her brains to think of an excuse.

However, since Xiaolan was abducted, how could Sonoko be unprepared?

She took out a super invincible super short skirt from her bag and waved it in front of Xiaolan: "Look, I've prepared everything for you!"

Xiaolan and Conan's faces turned red in an instant.

Xiaolan waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, this is too short, and I didn't even bring safety pants!"

"Is that so—" Yuanzi said with some regret, then suddenly smiled evilly, "Then you don't need safety pants, just wear them directly~"

Sonoko's devilish whispers penetrated Conan's head. His face flushed red, and he scratched his head secretly. What should he do? He really wanted to see it, but he didn't want others to see it. Damn it, Sonoko, that bastard, never thinks of good things all day long! !

Unfortunately, the conversation between the few people was not so pleasant when it reached the ears of the old father in front. He said with a dark face: "I say, if you are just embarrassing my daughter for that detective boy, then I think I can turn back now!"

Yuanzi had a look of uncertainty on her face. She came forward and whispered mysteriously, "That's a pity. I asked the uncle to drive us because there are many female college students with slim waists and long legs in the tennis court besides handsome guys~"

Maori Kogoro paused, then stepped on the accelerator: "Female college student!!!"

Chu Ming was pushed back on the seat by the sudden acceleration and was speechless.

I always feel like they picked up the wrong child. Sonoko should be the daughter of Kogoro Mouri, right?

One likes to look at beautiful women, the other likes to look at handsome men.

Those who like to look at beautiful women actually love their wives the most, and those who like to look at handsome men love their innocent boyfriends very much...

Chapter 473 Vehicle Killer 3.0

When the car was halfway through the journey, the sky suddenly turned gloomy.

"Is it going to rain?" Chu Ming looked out the car window. "If it rains, there will probably be no one on the tennis court."

Maori Kogoro stepped on the accelerator: "Impossible! As long as I go fast enough, I can make it to the tennis court before it rains!"

After speeding all the way, Kogoro Mori hurriedly parked the car by the river, opened the door and was about to run out.

"It's dangerous to park the car here if it rains and the tide rises, right?" Chu Ming looked at the soft ground and stepped on it. "There's not even a railing here."

"It's okay, let's go quickly. If it rains, my female college student will be gone!" Kogoro Mouri was very anxious and urged several people to get off the car quickly.

Chu Ming looked at the sky and took several umbrellas from the car just in case.

Sure enough, they had not walked far when rain started falling from the sky. Chu Ming distributed the umbrellas in his hand to several people and walked quickly towards the tennis court not far away.

By the time they arrived at the tennis court, the rain that had originally been dripping had turned into a heavy downpour. The five of them stood in a row outside the tennis court, looking at the empty court through the wire fence and fell into silence.

The righteous rain fell on the earth...

Yuanzi was the first to break the silence: "The weather was so good this morning, why is it raining so heavily now?"

Maori Kogoro's shoulders slumped down: "My thin waist and long legs female college student!"

Xiaolan escaped from the nightmare of wearing a super short skirt and smiled with curved eyebrows: "Wow, then I can't play tennis like this!"

Conan had a conflicted look on his face, as if asking himself: Should I be happy or unhappy?

The other three people all had their own thoughts, so only Chu Ming noticed Conan's expression changing.

He squatted down, moved closer to Conan's umbrella, and whispered, "Are you happy that no one else can see it, but you're also unhappy because you can't see it yourself?"

Conan pursed his lips and nodded: "Yes, I-!!! Brother Chu Ming!!"

Conan felt a little embarrassed when Chu Ming hit the nail on the head. His face flushed and he glared at Chu Ming quietly. He turned around and moved the umbrella over his head, no longer shielding Chu Ming from the rain.

Chu Ming opened the umbrella in his hand, looked at the points Conan had just given him, squinted his eyes with satisfaction, and didn't care about Conan's angry behavior at all.

When Maori Kogoro was regretting that he was driving too slowly, he suddenly spotted a figure standing on the court. His eyes lit up and he rushed forward: "There's someone on the court. Could it be that I'm going to run into him by chance - uh..."

"The male college student with a thin waist and long legs you want to meet?" Chu Ming finished the rest of his words for him and teased him, "You are too rigid about gender, uncle."

The man who heard the voice turned around and looked at the few people: "Are you here to play tennis? It's raining, the court is too slippery, we can't play."

"No, no." Xiaolan waved her hand and explained, "We saw you standing alone in the stadium with an umbrella, and wanted to ask if something happened here."

"No, I just remembered the first time I met my wife." The man lowered his eyes, a little lonely, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and his eyes changed slightly when he looked at Xiaolan and others, "If you want to play tennis after the rain, I can teach you. In fact, my job is a tennis coach."

Sonoko looked at the handsome man with a slightly melancholy face and felt a little moved, but Maori Kogoro cleared his throat behind him. Xiaolan understood immediately and quickly declined, "Thank you for your kindness, but forget it."

The man didn't force it, just waved goodbye and left.

Yuanzi looked at his leaving back and sighed: "Alas, in the end, I didn't catch a man."

When he heard the word "fishing", Kogoro Maori seemed to think of something. He ran back to the car with a few people and took out the fishing gear he had prepared.

"Let's go fishing!"

Chu Ming looked at the river whose water level was obviously higher than before, turned around and asked Maori Kogoro: "Uncle, do we really not need to drive the car upstream? I don't think it's very safe here..."

"It's okay, it's okay, let's go fishing!" Maori Kogoro waved his hand. He went out several times before because the tire in the truck didn't have a flat tire this time, so there would definitely be no problem.

Chu Ming didn't bring anything with him anyway, and put all his things in his system backpack. After hearing what Maori Kogoro said, he didn't continue to persuade him.

The five of them moved to the river. Kogoro Mouri set up the fishing rod, Chu Ming squatted beside the fishing rod and looked down, Conan raised his hand with a look of despair and held an umbrella for Xiaolan, while Sonoko came behind Kogoro Mouri and held an umbrella for him, looking like a father and daughter.

"I must catch a big fish tonight and give you a snack at night!" Kogoro Maori was in high spirits, his eyes fixed on the water, trying to pull up the float as soon as it moved.

"But aren't we going to Yuanzi's villa for dinner tonight? Dinner will surely be ready when we get there?" Chu Ming hit him.

"Shut up, you scared all my fish away!"

Conan suddenly leaned forward and said, "Why do I feel like the water level in the river has risen sharply?"

Chu Ming saw the water level suddenly rising a lot, stood up and looked towards the place where Maori Kogoro parked his car in the distance, but unfortunately the place was blocked by trees and he could not see anything.

When Chu Ming was looking around, Kogoro Maori's fishing hook suddenly seemed to be hooked on something. As the river water surged, the fishing hook gradually bent.

"Uncle, uncle, fish, fish, you caught a fish on your hook!!" Sonoko anxiously patted Kogoro Mouri, more excited than if she had caught it herself.

Kogoro Mouri reacted quickly, grabbed the fishing rod and began to pull, but the fish felt very heavy and he couldn't pull it no matter how hard he tried.

He became excited: "This is a big catch, maybe we can catch a king fish weighing 70 or 80 kilograms!"

He pulled hard, and with the buoyancy of the river water, the object on his hook revealed its true identity - it was his rented car.

!!!

"I rented a car!" Maori Kogoro's eyes widened. He thought he didn't have a flat tire on the way here, and he wouldn't have to look at the weird eyes of the car rental staff when he goes back. But this time it wasn't a flat tire, but the car was destroyed!!!

He gritted his teeth and pulled the car back, trying to recover the loss with his own strength. Although he could pull the car weighing several tons in an unscientific way, it was obvious that the fishing line was not included in the scope of science or scientific management, so soon the fishing line broke.

Kogoro Mori watched the car float up and down in the water and then rush downstream.

Chapter 474 This is the God of Death!

Chu Ming followed the group holding an umbrella. Xiaolan and the others' luggage were in the car and were buried under the water along with the car.

Originally Conan was standing behind Mouri Kogoro. If Chu Ming had not grabbed him in time, he would have been knocked to the bottom of the river by Mouri Kogoro and swam with the car.

Now the night is getting darker, and the forest that just rained seems particularly cold. Several people are walking aimlessly in the forest. Yuanzi rubbed his arms and felt a little cold: "How long will we walk in the forest like this? There is no signal on the phone. I want to call the people in the villa to pick me up..."

Maori Kogoro looked around and felt that there were the same trees everywhere. He was a little distressed: "Are we lost?"

"Eh?" Xiaolan stopped and looked around, a little scared, "Then we can't get out!"

“Hiss—” Chu Ming took a deep breath and threatened her seriously, “There shouldn’t be any mountain goblins here! It is said that mountain goblins like to hang around in the forest after the rain…”

Xiaolan stuck close to Yuanzi, knowing that Chu Ming was trying to scare her, but even though she knew it was fake, she was still scared: "Brother Chu Ming, stop talking!!"

Sonoko pulled Xiaolan back, feeling a little nervous. She turned to look at Maori Kogoro and said, "But uncle, when you walked over here just now, didn't you look full of confidence?"

"No, I just feel that I am going the right way." Maori Kogoro argued, "You know, this is the intuition of a famous detective. My detective sixth sense tells me that there is a way out here!"

"Really?" Xiaolan was half-believing and half-doubting. If it had been in the past, she would not have believed it at all. But now that Mouri Kogoro is a nationally famous detective, his credibility in her mind has been slightly improved.

Conan felt dizzy. He had a slight fever to begin with, and the temperature in the woods was relatively low. Although he was wearing Chu Ming's coat, he still felt the cold invading him. At this moment, he saw a hint of yellow in the corner of his eye. He looked closely and actually saw a ray of light coming from the gap in the treetops.

"There is a light..." Conan's voice was a little hoarse, and he pointed to his side, "I see a light over there."

"There's a light?" Maori Kogoro was ecstatic. "Great, let's go see if we can get a place to stay for the night. We can't just sleep in the forest!"
