Chapter 148 Only children love skiing, and mature adults hit trees directly
The next day, Conan returned to the Maori Detective Agency with his schoolbag on his back and a depressed face.
Bai Shu was looking at the lottery tickets on the coffee table, and Xiaolan was happily packing her luggage in the back room.
Hearing the knock on the door, she poked out half of her head and said happily, "Conan, you're back, hurry up and get your luggage ready, we'll go skiing tomorrow!" β
"Huh? Oh good. After three perfunctory times, Conan floated to the sofa like a wandering spirit, poured himself a cup of tea in a muffled voice, and poured it down.
There was a villa invitation ticket on the coffee table, which was drawn by Xiaolan by lottery.
Conan put down the cup, his gaze swept over the conspicuous ticket, his gaze paused for a second, and became even more melancholy.
- It would be nice if he was Shinichi Kudo now, and he would be able to go on a happy date with Ran on the snow, but now......
While Xiaolan was tossing in the room, Bai Shu patted Conan's shoulder and enlightened kindly, "You are still young, look at it." β
Conan's eyes twitched, and he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
After looking at Bai Shu suspiciously for a while, he lowered his voice and asked, "I didn't become Kudo Shinichi, why don't you seem surprised at all?" β
"My biggest surprise is that you didn't drink alcoholism." , Bai Shu took a slow sip of tea, "I thought about it seriously for a long time last night, but I didn't figure out what made you think that after drinking a bottle of liquor, you could successfully become Kudo Shinichi." Could it be that when people get smaller, their brain capacity also shrinks? β
"......", Conan glared at him weakly, then silently withdrew his gaze and sighed.
I feel like you're mocking me, but I have no proof.
β¦β¦
According to the doctor, the failure to grow large may be due to Conan's body developing antibodies to the wine.
Of course, after calming down and thinking about it, Conan thinks that it may also have something to do with the state he was in when he was drinking - for example, when he drank for the first time, he was suffering from a bad cold.
But in short, no matter how unwilling Conan is, he can only accept the reality and continue to be a first-grader full of wisdom.
The next day, the skiing trip started as scheduled.
Xiaolan and Conan were scurrying fast on the snow, and Shiraki was slowly swaying and drifting over in a place where there were few people.
Mori Kogoro hid behind a tree and slipped twice, and after almost falling, he gave up his attempt and leaned under the tree with his pocket, looking up at the sky at a 45Β° angle, not wanting to continue to be embarrassed.
However, Xiaolan quickly noticed him, she slid to the side, braked in a dashing way, and asked Maori Kogoro sideways, "Dad, aren't you slipping?" β
Maori Kogoro's gaze drifted for a moment, and then quickly stopped, he cleared his throat, and said disdainfully:
"Children love skiing, and experienced adults like us pay more attention to cloudless clear skies, pure and sweet air, and this vast silver world...... Ahh β
"What nonsense, you're just afraid of being seen wrestling, so you don't dare to skate!" , Xiaolan and Conan withdrew the hand that pushed him, and grinned simultaneously.
Mori Kogoro couldn't hold his feet at all, he slid down the gentle slope, dancing and sliding, and after trying to make a turn, he slammed into a tree dozens of meters away.
A key slipped out of his pocket and fell silently into the snow.
"Mori sensei, are you alright?"
Shiraki slid over quickly, looking at him worriedly, and secretly flicked his skateboard twice, lifted a small handful of snow, and covered the key in it.
Maori Kogoro's nose was red, he stood firm against the tree, and wiped his face angrily, "Is it because the home is not comfortable enough, or the izakaya is not happy enough, why should I not think about running to ski!" β
However, Xiaolan and Conan did not let go of the grieving and angry salted fish uncle, and after being unexpectedly pushed seven or eight times and falling seven or eight times, Maori Kogoro's day of suffering finally came to an end.
Several people put away their ski equipment, left the ski resort, and came to the front of the villa.
However, Mori Kogoro stood at the door for a long time and couldn't get the key to the villa out of his pocket.
Xiaolan waited for a few minutes, and couldn't help but go up and help him rummage, of course, there was nothing in his pocket.
She held her forehead and sighed, "How can this be lost!" β
Maori Kogoro snorted with confidence, "Who can blame this!" It's not like you're pushing me! β¦β¦ Ahem, now I can only ask the administrator to send a spare key. β
Bai Shu took out his mobile phone and glanced at it, and was not surprised to find: "There is no signal." β
Xiaolan tiptoed and looked around, there were no phone booths around, and the nearby villas were also darkly lit, not like they were inhabited.
He was about to walk down the hill to the caretaker's office when a car slowly approached on the road in front of the door.
The wheels crushed the snow and creaked to a halt in front of them.
The window of the car was rolled down, and a Mediterranean uncle poked his head out of it, he took a closer look at Mori Kogoro a few times, and laughed, "Sure enough, it's Mr. Mori Kogoro!" It just now feels familiar from afarβI've often seen your masterful reasoning in the newspapers. What kind of trouble do you seem to have? β
"Hahaha, am I acting so obviously." , Seeing his embarrassing scene by fans, Maori Kogoro touched the back of his head slightly embarrassed, and said euphemistically:
"That's right, we lost our key, we can only call the administrator to ask for a spare key, but there is no signal here......"
"Calling?" The uncle was stunned, and immediately pointed to his car and warmly invited, "You can come to my house to fight." β
"Your home?"
"Yes, it's very close, it's that one." , the uncle stretched out his arm and pointed to a villa built on a hillside a hundred meters ahead:
"Don't worry, I'm not a bad person, my name is Dashan Jiang, I am a professor of medicine at Dongdu University, today is the day of our research room, a few teachers come here for dinner - there are many rooms in the villa, after making a call, you can stay and eat hot pot together."
For a few people who have been freezing outside for a while and are shivering, the word "hot pot" is too attractive.
In short, when they came back to their senses, the group had already stepped down from the car of the mountain general and stood at the door of the villa.
This villa is different from what they got in the lottery: it is larger in size, more carefully designed, and not the kind of uniform commercial villa.
Maori Kogoro looked up and said to the villa: "Very tasteful!" The color, the design are great, and the ingenuity of the owner is revealed everywhere! β
"Haha, Mr. Mori still knows how to design. Indeed, when I built this villa, I had a long discussion with the designer before finalizing the current plan. For the sudden arrival of horses, the mountain will be very useful.
He came to Kogoro Mori's side late and was about to continue the discussion on the subject, when a car turned in front of them from the road and honked its horn twice at several people.
