Ye Gengyi and Mouri Kogoro sat on the bed, one on the left and the other on the right. Hattori Heiji stood by the wall, and the three of them looked at the bathroom door in unison.
Waited for another ten seconds.
Finally, after shouting "Ah", Kudo Shinichi lowered his head and slowly walked out of the bathroom.
The same Shinigami outfit, the same young face, there seems to be no difference, but something seems to be missing... Mouri Kogoro was stunned and tentatively said:
"Hey kid, are you okay?"
do not talk to me! I'd rather not have this kind of concern!
The little soul in Kudo Shinichi's heart roared crazily, but on the surface he was silent for a moment, and said in a voice full of despair and exhaustion:
"It's okay...just leave me alone."
"oh."
It was obviously the first time for Mouri Kogoro to see Kudo Shinichi looking so lethargic. He nodded lightly and said nothing more.
"Kudo-kun, please rest for a while first."
Ye Geng stood up to make way for the bed, and then said to Hattori Heiji and Mori Kogoro: "Although the matter has been resolved, if we continue to stay in the village to play, it may have a bad impact, so I suggest that we have lunch. Then return to Miwa Town...what do you think?"
His words accurately grasped the other party's thoughts.
It seemed that none of the three objected.
Ye Gengyi continued: "Heiji... Kudo-kun has that kind of disease, and he just came out of the bathroom. It must be inconvenient to walk. I ask you to bring his lunch back. Come on, let's go to the kitchen together." Watch to avoid buying spicy and irritating food.”
"Pfft... cough cough..."
Hattori Heiji covered his mouth and almost laughed like a pig. After adjusting for a while, he said with a trembling voice:
"Well... just leave Kudo's lunch to me."
A certain detective boy listened to the conversation of several people, threw himself on the bed, covered his head with a pillow... he was so uncomfortable that he couldn't speak.
Of course, he didn't forget that the posture was lying down.
What else can be done? Are you saying that Brother Gengyi’s reasoning is wrong? Is this guy Hattori lying? He doesn't have hemorrhoids at all. Then he finds a suitable reason to explain why he hid in the bathroom and moaned and screamed "ahhhhh"?
…Forget it, I’m tired, that’s it.
Here, Hattori Heiji kept reminding himself, 'I am a professionally trained detective, and I will never laugh no matter how funny it is.' He shook his shoulders and followed behind Ye Genichi and Mouri Kogoro, preparing to go downstairs to the hotel restaurant.
Outside the guest room.
The crowd of onlookers had already dispersed, leaving only two girls waiting in the corridor.
Seeing the three people walking out of the room one after another, but Kudo Shinichi was still missing, Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but ask:
"Where's Shinichi? He...is he still in the bathroom?"
No, at least for now, the boy might prefer to be in the morgue... Ye Gengyi diffused his thoughts quite casually without speaking, leaving the opportunity for explanation to the other two.
"The boy is fine..."
Mouri Kogoro hummed and waved his hands, not wanting to explain.
His care for Kudou Shinichi was purely an elder's concern for a younger one, but when he found out that his daughter also paid special attention to that detective boy, he immediately felt unhappy.
Hattori Heiji had a hard time holding back his laughter. His face was dark and red, and he completely failed to notice the questioning look cast by Mao Lilan. He walked to the kitchen of the hotel on his own, preparing to help Kudo buy some food without sacrificial ingredients. Spicy condiments for lunch.
After all, as a detective, you still have to be more rigorous in details.
The three of them left one after another.
Not long after, only Mao Lilan and Yuan Shan and Ye were left in the corridor.
Two girls, look at me and I look at you.
Finally, Yuan Shan and Ye suggested: "How about... let's knock on the door again?"
"……Um!"
Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment, nodded and came to the double private room again. He knocked on the door and shouted softly: "Shinichi? Are you okay?"
I'm not good, I'm very bad! Moreover, Xiaolan... the person I least want to see right now is you...
With tears streaming down his face, Kudo Shinichi jumped up from the bed. After showing off his healthy body in a room without onlookers, he came to the door and said through the door:
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry."
"... Well, a lot of things have happened recently. I have something to say to you in person, so... So, you must not leave secretly this time... okay?" When Mao Lilan said this, her voice As small as a gnat, he obviously wasn't mentally prepared yet.
In person? Could it be that Xiaolan wants to confess to me?
Suddenly, Kudo Shinichi's face also blushed with embarrassment.
He subconsciously wanted to open the door, but as soon as his hand grasped the doorknob, a slightly cold touch came to his mind, and his uncontrollable thoughts stagnated, making him freeze in place.
No, no.
Saraichi-nii, Hattori and the uncle had just left the room for less than ten seconds, and they might not even have finished going down the stairs at this moment.
Open the door yourself now?
Is it possible to continue acting and lie on the bed pretending to have a hemorrhoid attack and listen to his girlfriend's confession? ! Oh my god... If someone asks about this kind of thing, or recalls it in the future, let alone romantic, I'm afraid it will become a lifelong laughing stock!
He no longer dared to continue thinking about it, so he quickly retracted his hand and said in a slightly hoarse voice:
"Xiaolan, I won't leave. I'm just a little tired now. Let's talk about anything later."
...At least we should stay away from this sad place like Ousui Village first.
"Well! Then... you have a good rest first." Mao Lilan blushed, turned around and ran away.
Toyama and Ye, who failed to eat melon, but also wanted to learn some love experience, regretfully chased after him.
…
1:30 p.m.
A group of 6 people completed the check-out procedures and loaded their luggage into the van to prepare for their return trip.
The mountain road was difficult to navigate. For safety reasons, Ye Gengyi still sat in the driving seat.
But before leaving, he symbolically checked the backpack containing the drone and tablet.
There was a minute-long silence.
Hattori Heiji and Kudo Shinichi, who had clearly seen the appearance of the small drone in the bag, did not dare to take a breath.
What we want is this effect... A certain organizational cadre who was supposed to have a guilty conscience directly took advantage of it.
"Zangyi, what's wrong?" From the passenger seat, Mouri Kogoro looked over with some confusion.
"It's not a big deal."
Ye Gengyi explained: "I remember that this bag was placed right above the dashboard. I just found that the position was a little offset. After inspection, I found that there was nothing missing inside. I think I put Yada Makoto into the backup yesterday. It was caused by the body shaking when it was inside the box."

He didn't turn on the phone to check the battery, started the car and drove the group of people out of Aosui Village.
