The fog became thicker and thicker.
The cool, moist breeze blew into the car through the driver's window, dispersing the smell of tobacco and refreshing the four people's spirits.
"Dad, it's so cold. Please stop smoking!" Mao Lilan was helpless towards her father, a heavy smoker.
"There's nothing you can do about it. It's easy to get sleepy when driving slowly."
As he spoke, Mouri Kogoro tried his best to glance at the map placed on the console.
He had overlooked one thing just now. Since a young man who knew him got on the bus, in order to maintain the image of the famous detective, he must not let the other person know that he did not even remember where his client lived!
There were outsiders here, but this time Conan did not try to dismantle his own tool man. He looked at Ye Gengyi and asked: "Brother, my name is Edogawa Conan, what is your name and where are you from?"
Sure enough, it started, this kid...
Ye Gengyi tilted his head slightly and replied calmly: "Gao Yuanyi lives in Kyoto, but the specific location, I'm sorry... I can't tell you yet."
"Oh, I kind of ignored it before..."
Ye Geng paused for a moment, and glanced at the three of them one by one as he spoke. His calm and gentle tone gave people a very comfortable feeling: "Since you are going to handle a commission, and you are bringing a stranger like me to visit, Is there something inappropriate?"
Haha, are you still worried that we will secretly call the police?
Conan directly misunderstood that the young man wanted to get off the bus.
Mouri Kogoro took the opportunity to glance at the map again, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the client said that you can definitely bring your family and friends with you, otherwise I wouldn't take my daughter and this one to stay at our house. The little devil is here."
Conan: "..."
When introducing everyone, do I need to make it clear that I am a host?
Immediately, Mao Lilan also introduced himself and chatted about popular topics in addition to news.
Ye Gengyi didn't know much about this aspect, but fortunately there was a loli at home who often liked to read some random magazines. On a random topic, he could still have a few words based on his own understanding and relatively extensive knowledge. .
A debonair one.
Yan Yan smiled.
Then, a certain jealous detective became sour...
His gaze towards the passenger seat changed from curiosity to vigilance at first, and he frantically interrupted the conversation between the two of them with statements like, 'I heard what the doctor said, I heard what Ayumi said, I heard what Mitsuhiko said,' Well... Mainly interrupting Ye Gengyi when he was talking.
"Conan, you kid!"
Mao Lilan looked at Ye Gengyi and explained helplessly: "I'm sorry, he's not like this usually."
Children do not obey how to do? A few beatings will be enough... Ye Gengyi shook his head slightly, replied, "It doesn't matter," and then said no more.
Conan's plan succeeded, and he hurriedly leaned on the window to look outside.
…
The silver car continued to drive in the fog.
The constantly flashing fog lights are like fireflies flying at night, moving carefully within a vast but narrow range.
Fortunately, as time passed, the car finally left the mountain ring road.
On a mountain road with visibility less than half a meter, if you are really unlucky, you may be hit by another car even if you are not lucky...
….
Mouri Kogoro quietly breathed a sigh of relief:
"Huh...it seems like the fog here has lifted a lot."
He turned on the wipers and scraped the water vapor on the glass again, and his field of vision became much wider.
A road for two cars appeared in front of them.
The car window still maintains a staggered gap.
At this moment, Ye Gengyi frowned imperceptibly... This place felt weird.
He looked at the branches and leaves that occasionally swayed in the wind on both sides of the road, with the hazy mist acting as a filter, and suddenly he realized that these plants were beckoning towards them.
Hand illusion.
Up and down the mountain, it makes such a big difference in people's senses.
However, Mouri Kogoro didn't seem to notice anything unusual.
As the fog turned thin, he stepped on the accelerator and accelerated the car.
Being late and being late on purpose are two different things. Even if someone means to treat you to dinner, if you have to show up just before the meal is served, even if it is a coincidence, it will still feel a bit embarrassing.
However, the car's increased speed did not last long.
In front of the road, there was a Y-shaped fork in the road, which made Kogoro Mouri almost have to brake suddenly again.
Hey, uncle, do you know the road? Conan has half-moon eyes.
"dad……"
Mao Lilan looked like he was hesitant to speak.
"Mr. Mori?"
Ye Geng turned his head to one side, and there was a bit of astonishment in his eyes... He wondered if he was full and wasting time on scientific research, so he came to see if this tool man really had two brushes. idea
"Ahem! It's okay, it's okay, I'm just, that... eh! That's it..."
Mouri Kogoro was about to look around and talk to him when his eyes suddenly lit up, "It seems to be a gas station over there!"
Ye Gengyi: "..."
Mao Lilan: "..."
Conan: "..."
It's true, he really doesn't know the way...
There was silence in the car.
In the slightly awkward silence, Mouri Kogoro consciously pretended that nothing happened and drove over.
Warm lights seem to have the power to dispel the cold.
The staff at the gas station is an elderly man.
Mouri Kogoro came forward to ask for directions. According to him, the client's surname was Yamanaka, and he was a relatively well-known family in this area.
Ye Gengyi followed suit and glanced at the vegetable and tomato juice that the old man seemed to be drinking because of his bad teeth... He didn't like drinking this and was a little regretful that he couldn't find instant coffee on the shelf.
"Yamanaka?"
The old man recalled briefly and shook his head, "I'm not sure, but if it's a well-known family nearby, you can find it in about twenty or thirty minutes' drive in this weather by walking straight along this road."
It takes an hour to go back and forth...
Ye Gengyi was not very satisfied with this answer. If you go the wrong way, it might get dark if you go another way back and forth like this.
However, he didn't say anything.
After all, he couldn't provide any constructive advice on this matter.
Mouri Kogoro asked casually: "Old man, do you live near here?"
"This gas station is owned by my son, and I usually live here." The old man said.
Mouri Kogoro looked around, "Isn't he in the store today?"
The old man looked out the window and said, "He went to transport oil this morning. I don't know if he can come back today in such a heavy fog."
"Oh, so that's it..."
Mouri Kogoro continued to ask: "By the way, have you heard about anything that happened here recently?"
[In view of the general environment,
"recent?"
The old man said this in a very soft voice, even Ye Gengyi could barely hear it.
He seemed to be recalling something, then shook his head and raised his voice slightly: "I can't remember, not sure..."
This attitude of "I know something, but I'm not going to tell you after thinking about it," is so obvious that Kogoro Mouri discovered this without even having to be reminded by Ye Gengyi.
However, he did not ask again, but thanked the old man, just in case he filled up the car with gas here again.
A group of four people set off.
In the rearview mirror.
The old man stood outside the store, without waving his hand, but quietly watched them go away...
