Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

In the snowy forest in the mountains of Kitazawa Village, the Maori uncle in tight clothes was out of breath, stepping on the thick snow all the way, the pace was very strenuous, and the uncle smiled only after seeing a mountain hut.

"found it!"

The uncle looked happily at the snow-covered wooden house.

"A dreamy open-air hot spring, and it's a mixed bath! Haha, I've always dreamed of a mixed bathing open-air hot spring!

"Is it a sexy girl or a pretty girl waiting for me?"

...

After the transition from moving the village 8 years ago, Kitazawa Village is now a tourist village. Every winter, there are a large number of tourists, especially during the winter vacation. In the depths of the mountains like a snow country, New Kitazawa Village has become a place for children. paradise.

Gao Cheng was wearing a caterpillar-like thermal coat and a blue-and-white knitted hat on his head, and he kept steaming towards his hands.

Kitanosawa Snow Play Festival.

The festival happened to be during the tourism festival promoted by Kitanosawa Village. A large area in front of the village and at the foot of the mountain became a snow playground, full of noisy children, whether they were skiing or making snowmen...

"It ruins the atmosphere."

Gao Cheng squinted his eyes at Ayumi who was skiing on the opposite hillside, and from the corner of his eye glanced at Sonoko who had just recovered and was alive and kicking.

Dr. Ali, Conan and Xiao Ai sat in the rest area, drinking hot tea while watching Sonoko and Xiaolan skate.

"Ah-ha chirp!"

Takagi next to him sneezed, wiped his red nose absent-mindedly, and asked depressingly, "Well... didn't you say you came to the village to investigate? Why did everyone come here?"

How can he be reimbursed like this?

"I'm sorry," Gao Cheng said with a stiff smile, "I didn't intend to bring them here, but I said it would be more convenient to conduct a secret investigation this way, and it would not arouse suspicion... Should I be able to reimburse them?"

Takagi cried secretly.

It doesn't take so many people to pretend to be tourists...

Before this kind of thing, he and Officer Sato were enough.

Gao Cheng patted Gao Mu on the shoulder,

His eyes turned to the many snack stalls in the playground, "Don't even think about it, just go and have a drink."

"But having said that," Takagi looked to both sides and said, "Where's Mr. Mori?"

"I guess I went to the hot spring. There seems to be an open-air hot spring on the mountain where men and women bathe together, although few people go there."

Gao Cheng glanced at the mountain forest above the ski slope, and vaguely heard the scream of the uncle echoing.

"There are probably only female monkeys in it now..."

"Female monkey?" Gao Mu was stunned, "I'd really like to see the monkeys in the bath, I don't know if they will hurt people."

"Who knew, Japanese macaques are generally quiet."

Gao Cheng took a cup of hot drink and turned around to observe the situation in the village.

He doesn't like the lively snow scene very much, but likes the feeling of snowflakes falling with the wind in the vast mountains. The heavy snow in the Japanese mountains naturally has a sense of mystery. There are stories of gods and monsters.

This time he came to Beizhize Village, his purpose was to investigate the case, and only Yuanzi and his group came to play.

To be honest, except during the case, he usually has no chance to relax with everyone like this, and every time he solves the case while playing.

"Kiroto," Takagi looked around, "Where do you plan to start the investigation?"

"Let's find out the villagers who opposed the reservoir plan first, and then take a look at the reservoir by the way."

Gao Cheng relaxed a little.

There is no rush for this investigation. There are still two days before the festival, which should be enough for investigation.

At the village office, Gao Cheng took Takagi and Conan who came to investigate without telling others, and asked for a map of Kitanosawa Village and a guidebook for the reservoir.

At this time, two young men also came in next to them, asking for the topographic map of Kita Zawa Lake and the old Kita Zawa Village map of the same scale.

The gentle long-haired young man wearing glasses explained with a smile, "Because this guy at the end of the mountain insists on knowing where his hometown is sunk in the reservoir lake."

Next to the long-haired young man was a young man with inch hair, dark skin, wearing a thick green cotton coat, he seemed to have something on his mind.

"I kept you waiting for a long time," the staff brought the map of Kitanosawa Village and the guide booklet of the reservoir, and handed it to Michi Takagi, "I recommend you to visit Lake Sawajiri near the village, because there are hot springs gushing out from Lake Sawajiri , Even in severe winter, it will not freeze, and now many swans are flying here, and many parents will take their children to see it..."

"Uh," Takagi scratched his hair, "We are not father and son."

"Oh?"

"only friends."

Takagi sighed secretly.

He's not even married yet, does he look very old?

"Excuse me," Gao Cheng waited until the two youths got the topographic map and left before asking the staff, "Do you know who is the person who has been opposing the construction of the reservoir?"

"Ah?" The staff asked strangely, "Why do you ask this?"

"I'm just curious, because Zawa Village in New Beibei seems to be developing very well now, I think that person should also feel it..."

"That person didn't move into the new village, he lived alone in the mountains."

"Are you looking for Muto?" The two youths who had already walked out of the village office stopped after hearing this, "He will come over tonight."

Seeing Gao Cheng's unexpected gazes, the young man with glasses smiled and said, "I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Hikawa Shogo, an insurance investigator in Tokyo. I'm Muto's elementary school classmate. The person next to me is Yamao. We are both from the north." People from Sawamura came here from Tokyo this time to attend the festival."

The straight-inch man behind the young man with glasses, Yamao, suddenly asked in surprise, "Are you the famous detective Kido Kosei?!"

"Detective?"

Everyone in the village office looked at Gao Cheng one after another. Only the young man with glasses didn't change his expression. He just pushed his glasses and said, "I really didn't expect to meet a famous detective. Are you here to handle a case?"

"Of course not," Gao Cheng said with a smile, "I just came to the snow festival with my friends, and everyone else was at the venue."

"That's it," the young man with glasses narrowed his gaze, "If you want to find Muto, we have a party at the hotel next to the amusement park tonight, and we can just persuade that guy not to be so stubborn."

"Uh……"

Gao Mu watched the two young men leave, sighed and raised his forehead, "I didn't expect to be recognized so soon."

"It's okay." Gao Cheng shook his head lightly, "I didn't even think about hiding it."

No way, he is becoming more and more famous now, and he may be recognized wherever he goes.

Fortunately, there is something to gain, and I can talk to that Muto, and it happens that they also live in the Shanzhuang Hotel.

At the temporary clinic in the village, Yuantai, who ate so much, finally got sick of his stomach and had to ask the village nurse to prescribe medicine. When Gao Cheng and the others came to find him, they met the distraught Uncle Mao Li.

"What's the matter, uncle?" Conan looked at the blue-faced uncle suspiciously.

"I'm a little uncomfortable." The uncle, with sunken eyes, staggered towards the clinic.
