"Flash floods?"

Akashi Kuanren prepared curry rice, Gao Cheng and Yuanzi borrowed the landline phone in the living room together, Xiao Ai has prepared ingredients but there is nothing to worry about, but because of the mountain flood, the fire family can't come to pick up people, and the same is true for the garden villa.

At least they won't be able to go back to Karuizawa Villa today.

"It was said that the road collapsed because of the mudslide, and it will come to pick us up tomorrow......" Yuan Zi put down the phone and looked at Gao Cheng helplessly.

"In that case," said Kanto Akashi, who was serving curry rice in the kitchen, with a smile, "You're staying at my house tonight, and there happens to be a lot of spare quilts at home......

"Ah, is that really possible?"

"It's okay."

Kanto Akashi handed a plate of egg fried rice to Conan: "Come on, the curry rice is a little spicy, so let's eat egg fried rice for my little brother." ”

"Okay."

"Mr. Akashi, won't your father come down to eat?"

"My dad has a bit of a weird personality, I'll just send it later."

"That's right."

"But seriously," Uncle Maori said as he couldn't help but eat the curry rice, "this curry rice is so delicious, it's almost the same as the one in the restaurant, and it's my favorite spicy flavor!" ”

"Well," Xiaolan tasted and admired, "Mr. Akashi, your wife's cooking skills are really good......

"No," Akashi shook his head, "I cooked this, and my wife passed away three years ago today due to illness." ”

"No...... Sorry ......"

"Nothing."

Akashi returned to the kitchen and said, "When I was a tennis coach, I had to cook for the players to adjust their physical strength, so the cooking level was probably a little better than that of my wife......

"Really?"

Gao Cheng looked at Akashi Kanto, who was busy as a housewife, "No wonder when I saw Mr. Akashi on the tennis court today, I felt as if I had something on my mind." ”

"Oh, I just remembered when I first met my wife on the tennis court......"

Akashi Kuanren's face revealed a hint of nostalgia, and he put a plate of curry rice on the plate, and put the cutlery and a glass of water.

"Alright, I'm going to bring the curry rice to Daddy upstairs...... You don't have to be polite, if you want to add another bowl, you can do it yourself......"

"Ah, okay."

Gao Cheng bit his chopsticks and watched as Akashi walked through the kitchen and went upstairs with a plate.

It's really a strange person, and he unconsciously reminds him of the flood of horror movies, getting lost, an old house in the mountains, spending the night, strange fathers and sons...... The elements are all complete.

It's also very similar to the beginning of a murder case, that is, there are only these people as guests, and there is no injustice or hatred, and this young man doesn't look like a murderer, but the eccentric old man is a little dangerous.

Gao Cheng shook his head and continued to solve the curry rice in front of him.

Anyway, just be careful, nothing big will happen with him, and Conan shouldn't be careless, stay one night and leave tomorrow morning.

After dinner, it was already eight o'clock, after Gao Cheng took a hot bath, he found a copy of "Fishing Door" from the glass cabinet next to the living room and read it with Conan, while Yuan Zi talked to Xiaolan about the daily life between girls, and only Uncle Maori was still eating curry rice.

Gao Cheng raised his eyelids and looked at the uncle who kept chewing.

"Mr. Kuanren is so slow," Yuan Zi looked up at the hanging bell and said, "It's been forty minutes......

"What's so strange about his weird dad," Uncle Maori took another bite of curry, and looked unhappily at the lamp rope hanging in front of him on the table, "but this one looks really unpleasant, this extraordinarily long electric light cable is really an eyesore, and I feel unappetizing when I see it......"

"You're already eating your third curry rice, uncle," Gao Cheng couldn't help but interject, "Your appetite is much better than mine." ”

The uncle's face was indignant, and he always felt that the electric light cable in front of him was mocking himself: "Hmph, I can eat more ...... if it wasn't for this cable."

"It's because my dad has a long relationship," Akashi said back to the living room, "and he said he wanted to let him get to the ...... even if he was hunchbacked."

"Uncle Akashi," Conan said curiously, "I just went to deliver curry rice, why did it take so long to come down?" ”

"Well," Akashi smiled bitterly and sat down next to him with a plate of curry rice, "because Dad said something strange, so we talked about it now." ”

"Strange words?"

"Well, what do you say, 'I want to die, what do I want to eat?', it seems that I feel that my wife and daughter-in-law have left first, and I feel that I am very annoying...... But now that I'm finally getting better, and I'm starting to eat his favorite curry rice, I shouldn't have to worry about it......"

"Yes...... Is it? Xiaolan and Yuanzi were even more scared.

When Uncle Maori was about to eat the fourth bowl and was not too embarrassed, Gao Cheng finally finished "Introduction to Fishing".

From the preparation of fishing tackle to the selection of locations to fishing methods, the book has a lot of things, especially a record of a seemingly complicated fishing line knot, which seems to be the same one that the uncle used during the day. ，

Yuan Zi secretly glanced at "Introduction to Fishing" and said in surprise: "Mr. Kuanren, do you also like fishing?" ”

"Ah no," Akashi was stunned, "This is a book that my wife bought three years ago, but I haven't seen her fishing, probably because I want to wait until I'm well......"

"Hold, sorry......" Gao Cheng suddenly felt that the books in his hands sank a lot.

"It's okay," Akashi said with a smile, "Anyway, my wife is here, so it's nice to have someone watch it...... You didn't fall into the river today because of fishing, did you? ”

"Sort of, haha."

Gao Cheng laughed dryly twice, and did not hit the black-faced uncle next to him.

It's still a bit of an underestimation of the uncle, such a complex fishing knot can also be tied, in the end it has lived for many more years, and there are not necessarily fewer things to understand.

It's still raining outside, only this old house and villa are lit up in the deep forest, it seems that no one has built a house in this kind of deep mountain, listen to Akashi Kuanren, you have to walk two or three kilometers to the nearest supermarket, and the tennis court is not really close, but it will be faster by car.

After all, this is already within the boundaries of Gunma Prefecture......

Gao Cheng studied the fishing knot for a while, and after making sure that he would not be able to do it for a while, he threw "Introduction to Fishing" to Conan, and found some books to read.

If there are no accidents in the villa on Karuizawa's side, it can be considered settled, and Xiao Ai's ability does not have to worry, all that remains is to recruit a maid and set up a detective agency office.

Since Karuizawa is a villa settlement of the upper class, it is estimated that you can also receive some commissions when you come here for a vacation, and you don't have to worry about fame and connections, which is much better than nesting in rice all the time.

In the kitchen, Akashi Kanto began to wash the dishes after cleaning up the dishes, looked at the time, and said to Xiaolan who was helping next to him: "Can you please help take down my father's dinner plate?" ”

"Okay, no problem."

"But my dad is a little nervous, and he eats very slowly, if the light in the room is still on, he shouldn't have finished eating, you come back quietly, don't make a sound."

"Okay."

The pendulum of the wall clock in the living room swayed back and forth, and after Xiaolan quietly came back from the stairs, Uncle Maori went to the bathroom to take a bath first, leaving everyone to rest in the living room.

Gao Cheng put down the book and yawned boredly, and when he saw that Akashi Kanto was going to teach Sonoko to play tennis, his eyelids jumped.

"Mr. Akashi," Gao Cheng stood up and snatched the tennis racket from Sonoko's hand, "Actually, I'm particularly interested in tennis......"

"What?" Yuan Zi said angrily, "Obviously you want to teach me first!" ”

"Mr. Akashi said he was going to teach me during the day today, right?"

"That's right......"

Akashi Kuanto smiled wryly and helped Gao Cheng correct his swinging posture.

"But is Joto-kun really interested in tennis?"

"Of course," Gao Cheng affirmed, "I wanted to go to the tennis court to play tennis today......"

"This—That's it."

Akashi's face was a little stiff, he didn't seem to say so during the day, and he didn't bring tennis balls and rackets.

"Then Joto-kun will try his forehand first...... Uh, did Joto-kun really play tennis before? The racket should be held like this......"

Gao Cheng sweated on his forehead: "I haven't played in years......"

Conan propped his chin and looked at Gao Chengxue's basic pose.

I've never seen Joto play tennis before, and I've never heard of it, but I heard from Joto's sister Ma Mei in the same class that the worst thing this guy was sports during high school, and he didn't participate in club activities much, and he still doesn't know where he learned swordsmanship.

Was it deliberately hidden before?

......The pendulum clock rang between Gao Cheng's grinding, and the time was ten o'clock in the evening, and even the garden sat down with Conan, holding his chin in boredom to watch Akashi Kuan teach Gao Cheng how to swing the racket.

"Is he true or not?" Yuan Zi couldn't help but mutter.

"I feel like it's real." Conan confirmed.

"Well, anyway, the curry rice should be finished," Xiaolan looked at the time, got up and said, "I'll go up and put the cutlery down again." ”

"Ah," Akashi wiped his sweat and smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'm really bothering you, usually my dad should have been asleep at this time, just don't make a noise with him." ”
