Where he went, he really didn't tell anyone.

......

Italy.

"Saikyo, when are you going back to Japan?"

"Wait, this ...... I'd love to go back, but I'm still in relative danger right now. ”

"So, you didn't tell anyone, including Masami?"

"Don't tell them to protect them, don't you understand?"

"Of course I understand, no one knows, in fact, it is the safest, safe for everyone, you can be regarded as thinking about them in this way, not bad. ”

"Hah...... Mr. Keigo, what do you think of the present?"

"What do you want to say?"

Higashino Qiang saw a blue sea in front of him.

I've been here for a while, and apart from writing and taking pictures everywhere, Higashino's favorite thing is looking at the sea.

Mr. Keigo had asked him why before.

Higashino's previous answer was not very serious, he said so.

The handsome guy seems to be more compatible with the sea.

This made Mr. Keigo laugh for a long time, and a ghost almost died without laughing.

But Higashino may be telling the truth at this time.

"Every time I see the sea, I think of Mr. Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea. ”

After Mr. Keigo listened, he suddenly thought of a common Chinese word that Higashino Qiang had taught him before.

Pretending.

So, Mr. Keigo didn't speak, watching him pretend.

Higashino laughed, and he continued, "I feel that the "Devotion of Suspect X" we are writing is as ...... as "The Old Man and the Sea"

Speaking of this, Mr. Keigo couldn't help it.

"Saikyo, I still want to be faced. ”

This is also new.

So...

Ha ha...... One person and one ghost, laughing heartily.

It's kind of idle chatting.

But at this time.

Mr. Keigo reminded, "Angelo is here." ”

Angelo, an Italian child under ten years old, was somewhat black in length, and his hair was black wool curls.

It is said that black hair is a symbol of pure Roman descent and noble blood.

Well, Higashino Qiang has a deep understanding of Angelo's kid after listening to it.

It's also very good at bragging.

As soon as he came ...

"saikyo!

"Huh, how can I help you?"

"Don't you always say that you're saikyo, so strong, then, help me this time...... How about giving me peace of mind in Esmeralda?"

"Haha...... How old are you, kid, have you grown hair?"

"You scoundrel!"

"Haha......"

Higashino Qiang was in a very good mood, and he wrote this so-called 'hiding' completely as a trip and vacation.

As for Angelo, in fact, Higashino Qiang understands that there will be a festival soon, and this kid should want to perform well.

In this way, I captured the heart of the little girl I liked.

This one......

"Come on, I'll help you. ”

"Ha! Awesome! You're the strongest!"

......

......

"The undertaker' did not do well at the box office in China, with only 500 million yen in the account!"

"Didn't Mr. Ghost Wu suffer Waterloo? If China doesn't buy it, will it affect Mr. Ghost's pace?"

"The sales are red, and Chinese book fans recognize Mr. Guiwu!"

Throughout October, there was much less news from Mr. Ghost Go.

After all, the previous hit drama "Marriage Proposal" has been broadcast, and after that, there will be disc sales and other things.

As for the Hope Gate website, it is still very happy, with Mr. Ghost Go, it has indeed attracted a wave of traffic, so many writers have also come.

Many of the authors who were originally written lightly and were looked down upon by many people, and even accused them of not being home at all, also joined in.

After all, the website has just started, so you have to burn some money, which is estimated to be about 1 billion yen.

This doesn't seem to be a big problem for Mr. Ongo, after all, he is also one of the top figures in Japan's tax rankings.

Besides, it's that old man Ishihara is seriously ill.

It is said that he burst his cerebral blood vessels and was paralyzed in bed.

The eldest is in prison, and the second child appears in front of people as a filial son, which is not bad.

Anything else?

I don't know, I really don't know.

Yu Aoi really wants to curse because she is looking for someone all over the world right now.

Well, that's it, she has come out of Japan, and it is already certain that Higashino is not in Japan.

So, where is he?

I don't know, but I seem to know.

Well, Yu Aoi wants to correct it, she is not looking for Higashino Qiang all over the world, she has a general direction.

That's ...... Will Higashino be in Italy?

Why do you think so?

Maybe it's just because she thinks it narrows the scope.

However, no matter how small it is, this is also a country.

Bastard, you, Higashino Qiang!

Yu Aoi spent the entire month in Italy.

It's so hard to find people, to find people in this country.

She went to Bellurichio, a real-life version of the city in the sky, and she couldn't resist visiting it again.

She bet he was here, and it seemed very likely.

Unfortunately, the bet was lost.

No, not at all.

After several days of searching, I asked many people if they had ever seen a tall, handsome Asian who spoke Japanese or Chinese.

No, not at all.

Didn't this guy Higashino Qiang come here?

Yu Aoi was frustrated by her failure.

And this failure also made her seem to recognize something.

Is it really that important to be in Higashino's heart?

I didn't want to think about it, but this time I was devastated.

But no.

You can't just end it up, you have to find that guy.

So, Yu Aoi, who was regrouped, came to another special place.

Cinque Terre.

This small village, famous for its movies, has since become a tourist destination for couples, and of course, many of them are from Asia.

By the sea, on the cliffs, colorful houses, still.

Yu Aoi arrived on November 1st.

Today happens to be Halloween in the West.

Italy also has Halloween.

The so-called Halloween is Halloween in the West.

Yu Aoi came to this country, of course, she also learned this information, after all, even if she didn't want to understand, someone would tell her, or even no need to talk about it at all, this kind of festive atmosphere, in tourist attractions, is rich for everyone.

But in reality, the Italian Halloween tradition is nothing to make a fuss about.

To put it simply, on Halloween, people in the north, such as Milan, have to go to the graves.

In addition, all Italians will have an extra chair and an extra pair of cutlery when they eat in their own homes.

It is a kind of commemoration for the deceased.

This is tradition, but right now ...

"Hey, let's do it. ”

"No, thank you. ”

"Hah...... Let's come together, let's go scare!"

"Still not. ”

Many young people make themselves into a mess, like vampires, zombies, death, and so on.

Aoi is very annoying, many of these individuals are foreign tourists, not Italians.

What can be done in this case?

I didn't think much about it, and while it was still dark, I slept in the hotel and definitely didn't come out.

But......

"Miss, I'm sorry, it's full today. ”

"I booked the room before. ”

"Is there one?"

"Huh?"

When Yu Aoi arrives at the hotel, she finds that things are more serious than she thought.

I obviously booked a hotel online, but when I arrived at the place and told her that it was full.

What's going on!?

In the end, it was clear that it was a system failure.

It seems that because of the Internet problem, this Cinque Terre is very remote after all, and the Internet in Europe has always been chaotic.

So...

Finished!

On such a night, Halloween, all kinds of 'ghosts' haunted, what should she do as a girl?

Oh my!

Yu Aoi is a smart girl after all, and she has come up with a way to deal with it for a night in a bar.

Actually, the best place is the Internet café, but unfortunately this is Italy, not Japan, there is no such place.

The whole village is a tourist attraction, isn't it confusing to open an Internet café?

Bar poop bar!

By the time Yu Aoi came out of the hotel, the sun had already set.

The night, in itself, has an eerie feel.

What's more, on a special day like today, a girl with her hair stands on end.

It's not cowardice, it's really not.

Look, there's a demon not far away.

Not far away, there was a female zombie, dressed quite revealingly.

It's winter.

Well, it's a Mediterranean climate in itself, of course.

No, you might be attacked by Frankenstein!

Yu Aoi quickly found a bar and went straight in.

Outcome......

"Hi~"

"Hah...... Come on!"

“bloodnight！”

This home is also the theme of Vampire Night.

Oh!

Who's going to save me!

Maybe Amaterasu can't control this at all.

So, Yu Aoi spent Christmas in a foreign country like this.

......

Angelo was in a good mood today, and his outfit was the best.

"Esmeralda, how's it going?

"Mom! Woo ......"

Esmeralda ran away crying directly after Angelo appeared.

Angelo froze in place.

On Halloween, everyone dresses up to see who is more interesting.

And what does Angelo look like today?

He grew taller.

That's right, he's an adult in black now.

It's just that the head of this 'adult' is, of course, his.

But, on his chin, there is still a hand.

Of course it's a prosthetic hand, of course.

But what is the effect of this image in the dark night, in Halloween at this moment?

A man dressed in black, holding his head in his hands.

Well, especially, if you look closer, you can still see the blood on that neck...

As soon as Angelo appeared, it wasn't just Esmeralda who ran away.

Several adults, not only women, but also old men were scared away.

Originally, Angelo was quite proud.

But now.

Whining......

The noble descendants of the Romans shed tears of sadness, perhaps for the first time in his life.

But at this time.

"You...... Who helped you get this look?"

Angelo stopped crying in an instant, because there was a big sister, a vampire big sister, who was not afraid of him.

And so ...

......

Night, by the sea.

The wind was cold.

Higashino was wearing what was probably the most normal thing in the Cinque Terre right now, and he was still looking at the sea.

Actually, the night in Cinque Terre is beautiful when the lights shine on the colorful buildings.

It's really good-looking.

But I don't know how, I feel a gust of wind behind me.

"You ......" turned around and found a vampire, no, it was a vampire.

Then I saw this vampire Ji and pounced fiercely!
