Chapter 735 Conan's Discovery
Just as the three little ones were chattering around the fishing rod, Xiao Ai finally came out of the villa. She had changed into casual clothes, simple yet fashionable, her short brown hair was combed neatly, and her face had returned to its usual cold expression.
He turned back into the calm and self-possessed little adult.
"Why are you here?"
She put her hands in her pockets and spoke calmly.
"Ai-chan!" As soon as Ayumi saw her, she ran over happily and held her hand, "We discovered a mysterious incident!"
Mitsuhiko immediately opened his notebook and began to explain seriously: "According to our observations over the past few days, strange flashes appear on time at 3:15 every afternoon in the fountain pool of Beika Park, and each flash lasts about 30 seconds..."
Xiao Ai listened to their description and frowned slightly: "Maybe it was the refraction of sunlight? Or someone threw something reflective in? Both of these situations could cause the flashing phenomenon."
"Impossible!" Yuan Tai said confidently, "I saw with my own eyes that the light came out of the water! Just like... just like..."
"Like the light of treasure!"
Ayumi took over the conversation, her eyes sparkling.
Children are like this, always full of endless imagination. They like to imagine things they don’t understand as mysterious and precious treasures in stories, adding many wonderful colors to their ordinary lives.
Hanyu Kusunoki listened with great interest and suddenly suggested, "How about we go and take a look together? We have nothing to do today anyway."
"Really?" The three little ones looked at him in surprise.
Ai gave him a warning look, but Hanyu Nan pretended not to notice it, stood up slowly, and stretched his waist: "Let's go, the sooner we go, the sooner we can come back."
Now that he had spoken, it was difficult for Xiao Ai to refuse.
One adult and four children, all the way to Mihua Park.
As expected, they found an abandoned pocket watch under the fountain, which was discarded by someone. The so-called strange flash was just the light refracted by the small mirror on the pocket watch when it was exposed to direct sunlight.
"What? It turns out to be just a broken pocket watch..." Yuan Tai muttered in disappointment, kicked the stones beside the fountain hard, and his little face fell.
Mitsuhiko also closed his notebook dejectedly: "I thought we could find some major case..."
Ayumi quickly cheered up and held the rusty pocket watch to examine it carefully: "Maybe this is a very important piece of evidence! Look, there seems to be words engraved inside..."
Xiao Ai took the pocket watch, took a look at it, a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes, and she said lightly: "It's just an ordinary couple's pocket watch, the production date is... twenty years ago."
Looking at the three dejected little ones, Hanyu Nan replied a message, put away his phone, smiled and clapped his hands, "Don't be discouraged, at least you found a historical relic, someone wants to invite us to a fun place, do you want to go?"
"really?"
"I'm going, I'm going!"
"Brother Hanyu, I'm going too."
The three little ones immediately put aside their worries and started smiling.
Ai looked at Hanyu Kusunoki suspiciously: "Who?"
Hanyu Kusunoki winked mysteriously and said, "You'll know when you get there."

...........
Half an hour later.
A red Alfa Romeo GT drove out of Beika Town.
The license plate is Shinjuku 300ち 12-08.
"2958cc, 220 hp, V-6, 24 valves, DOHC engine equipped with..."
The voice of a certain steamed egg chef sounded from the back row.
He listed out all the parameters of the car as if they were his own treasures.
Yukiko, sitting in the driver's seat, skillfully controlled the steering wheel with both hands. She was obviously in a surprisingly good mood and cheered from time to time.
She is wearing a bright red sweater today.
Complements the car body perfectly.
Her beautiful face was filled with a brilliant smile, her skin was fair and delicate, her eyes were lively and playful. She didn't look like a married woman with children at all. She exuded a full sense of girlishness.
It seems that time has not left too many traces on her, and she is still as bright and shining as the star on the screen back then.
Hanyu Kusunoki was sitting in the passenger seat, holding Ai in her arms.
Xiao Ai seemed to have gotten used to such close contact. She leaned quietly in his arms, occasionally looking up at the scenery outside the car window.
Hanyu Kusunoki noticed that the great detective who was squeezed in the back row among a group of children would occasionally look at him with obvious scrutiny and suspicion, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
My good sister just sent a message to ask him what he is doing.
After learning that he was with a group of children, she cheerfully invited them to go to the Dongdu Phenomenon Institute to play and pick up the advertising film she had shot a few days ago.
Well, the endorsement advertisement for Nanyuan Creative Dumpling Shop.
The previous one was to pay off Conan's debt, and it just happened to be the last stop for Yukiko to prepare for her comeback.
After all, she is a former international film queen.
Although it has been almost 20 years since I stopped acting.
But with the popularity she accumulated back then and her still outstanding temperament today, she is more than qualified to be the spokesperson for a dumpling shop.
"Oh, hey, are there no other car models available for rent?" Conan was sitting in the back seat, complaining about his mother's taste while looking at the figure in the passenger seat with sharp eyes without any concealment.
He was just at Dr. Agasa's house accompanying his best friend.
Suddenly he heard the familiar voices of the three little ones outside, and out of curiosity, he looked out the window.
It didn't matter that he took a look, but he saw that at the door of his house, his mother was smiling and affectionately holding the arm of his biggest rival, Hanyu Kusunoki, and then the two of them got into the same car together.
The detective's intuition gave him a bad feeling.
So he ran out immediately and forced his way into the car.
He must find out when his mother became so close to that guy Hanyu Kusunoki, and what unspeakable secrets are hidden behind it.
Thinking of this, Conan looked at Hanyu Kusunoki more sharply.
Yukiko, who was driving the car, heard her son's complaints and immediately raised her eyebrows. She snorted coldly, with a hint of arrogance and pride in her tone: "What do you mean by rented? I bought it myself!"
"What?" Conan was shocked: "Where did you get the money?"
Didn’t my mother lose all her family money and even sell her house to that guy Hanyu Kusunoki the first two times? How come she still has money to buy a car?
Didn’t the old guy’s gold coins explode yet?
Yukiko then realized that she had said the wrong thing.
You can't tell Conan that your mother paid off her debts twice by being stuffed full by your biggest enemy and turned into a puff!
Well, she was afraid she would say that.
This silly son of mine would go straight to his bad brother and fight him to the death.
