However, due to the armed robbery, all the customers in the car dealership, except for their group, had already left.

This happened so soon after the store opened, it was incredibly unlucky. The staff all looked dejected, as if they could already foresee the store's demise.

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka said to one of the staff members:

Can I continue looking at cars?

Her purpose in coming here was to buy a car, and even if a case occurred, it wouldn't change her mind.

"Eh?"

The staff member she asked paused for a moment, but her eyes quickly lit up again, and she smiled her signature business smile as she said:

"Of course, this way please!"

Although she said she was looking at cars, she had already made a pretty good decision: an armored off-road vehicle that she liked, and a retro sedan that Moriarty liked.

She originally intended to buy both cars together, but then she suddenly remembered that her current home only had enough space for one car, so she couldn't park two.

In the end, she had no choice but to give up her luxurious plan to buy two cars and instead chose the retro sedan that Moriarty liked.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

After successfully completing a transaction, the employees smiled and fired small celebratory cannons, sensing that the store might still have a future.

At this moment, another staff member approached Fujimaru Ritsuka carrying a box and explained with a smile:

"Guest, this is a lucky draw we hold after you purchase a car. You can participate in the draw for free, and the prizes are very generous."

"Then let me try."

There's always an irresistible allure to raffles, so she enthusiastically reached into the box and pulled out her prize—

"A three-day family (three people) package?"

The staff member next to her explained that the tour package included the following: all transportation, accommodation and food expenses incurred during the trip for three people would be covered by the car rental company.

Then, she suddenly remembered that Leonardo da Vinci had also suggested that she go on a trip.

Three people, three days.

"Does Ai want to go?"

She asked Ai Haibara.

In response, Ai Haibara nodded slightly and said:

"Three days is fine with me."

"Then go!"

So she happily made the decision, but the staff told her that the destination for the trip had already been decided.

"Ridu Island?"

Chapter 90 Ridu Island

November 22st

After deciding to take this three-day trip, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Haibara Ai each went back to pack their luggage and then, together with Moriarty, the three of them set off for their destination—a tourist destination called Hitoshima Island.

Hitoshima is a small island in the Kitan Strait of Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan. It is said to have gradually become a popular tourist island in recent years, but it is not exactly a popular destination.

The day before her departure, Fujimaru Ritsuka did some research online and learned that it was a small island that relied on fishing and tourism for its livelihood, with a population of about 700 people. Its specialties were green rice dumplings and salted squid.

Of course, there are also some well-known tourist attractions on the island.

For example, the summer festival they happened to attend on July 24th was the grandest event of the year on Nikko Island, as well as some other distinctive historical sites.

Overall, it looks pretty good.

So in the morning, she, Ai Haibara, and Moriarty took the Shinkansen, the Kuroshio Limited Express, and the Nankai Kata Line, and finally boarded a ship in Kata to their destination, Hitoshima Island.

Not only them, but most of the people on this ship were tourists traveling here.

Since the 24th, which is the day after tomorrow, is the day of the Nikko Island Summer Festival, this period should be the peak time for tourism on Nikko Island.

Wow! What a beautiful sea!

Today the weather is sunny and breezy, with soft white clouds dotting the azure sky, like drifting cotton candy.

Golden sunlight spills across the vast, boundless blue sea, creating dazzling, shimmering waves. A salty sea breeze blows in gusts, bringing a sense of tranquility and joy.

Fujimaru Ritsuka leaned on the railing, her gaze gradually shifting from the nearby sea to the distant horizon, and she couldn't help but sigh:

"No matter when you look at it, the ocean is always so beautiful. I really hope it can stay this clean and beautiful forever."

To match the relaxed atmosphere of a summer trip, she changed into another outfit that was perfect for the theme: a magic costume called "Summer Street".

Her upper body was covered by a white cropped T-shirt and a thin, semi-transparent short-sleeved shirt, revealing a short section of fair and healthy skin, a slender waist and a cute belly button. Due to years of exercise, a clear V-line could also be seen, making it hard to look away.

She wore a pair of gray shorts with white casual shoes, and the light green belt on the shorts was the finishing touch to the whole outfit.

Also, thanks to years of exercise, her fair and long legs are straighter, more rounded, and have healthy and clear muscle lines, exuding full vitality. Her beauty is breathtaking.

Are you talking about environmental protection?

Moriarty, also dressed in casual summer attire, smiled and struck up a conversation:

"Indeed, theft, robbery, and murder are crimes, as is environmental destruction. But even I prefer the former to the latter."

"I mean, shouldn't you be unable to like either of them?"

Ai Haibara sighed helplessly and complained.

After spending time together, she roughly understood that James the butler was an oddball who particularly liked to talk about crimes. According to Conan, he also seemed to be a fan of Moriarty, the main villain in the Sherlock Holmes stories.

It seems quite reasonable.

"hehe,"

Moriarty chuckled a few times, skipped over the topic, and then smiled at Fujimaru Ritsuka:

"However, compared to the beauty of nature, many men seem to prefer admiring the beauty of the opposite sex."

"!"

Her face flushed slightly upon hearing this, and she glared at him angrily.

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Ai Haibara brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and said softly:

"After all, Ritsuka-neechan's looks and figure are top-notch, even among famous female celebrities."

"For people in these rural areas, they probably have never seen anyone more beautiful than Ritsuka-neechan in real life, right?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka's appearance and figure were already outstanding, and with the addition of an eye-catching outfit, she attracted the attention of many young men as she walked.

It wasn't just about attracting attention; along the way, she had already rejected several men who tried to strike up a conversation with her.

Even on this ship now, there are still a few boys who occasionally cast flirtatious glances at her, which gives her quite a headache.

She sighed with some distress:

"Is it really that exaggerated? I don't feel anything."

There are so many Servants in Chaldea who are known for their beauty, and even those who aren't known for their beauty are generally quite pretty.

Spending every day with those Servants, she didn't feel that she was plain-looking, but she didn't seem to have anything special about her either.

Moriarty understood her implication and immediately retorted:

"I cannot agree with that."

"Although there are indeed many stunning beauties in Gari, you are not necessarily inferior to anyone among them. I think not only myself, but also a considerable number of people would agree with my point of view."

"Is that so?"

Hearing the unexpected praise, she scratched her head a little shyly.

However, the conversation between the two only confused Ai Haibara even more.

The implication of their conversation was that there were many people as beautiful as Fujimaru Ritsuka in her family.

What kind of family is this?

Just then, a commotion broke out at the stern of the ship, not far from them, drawing the attention of the three men and the other passengers.

A fairly handsome young man with a ponytail was seen bowing deeply to the woman sitting next to him, apologizing repeatedly, and looking quite flustered.

Then, through the rapidly spreading gossip, the three learned that it seemed the man had somehow jumped into the other person's arms, and after being slapped hard, he ended up in his current state.

However, the boy's behavior did not seem intentional. After the woman looked annoyed for a while, she let him go, but he did not return to his seat. Instead, he stood silently to the side.

After hearing the story, Ai Haibara's gaze towards the boy immediately turned one of disgust and disdain. She whispered a warning to Ritsuka Fujimaru beside her:

"Ritsuka-neechan, you must stay away from that kind of person."

"I got it."

She nodded and responded with a smile.

As she spoke, she glanced at the boy again.

I always feel that it looks familiar.

Illusion.

This incident was just a minor episode in their journey, and they didn't pay much attention to the boy. After the boat continued sailing for some time, they finally arrived at Ridu Island.

They stood up and lined up in the middle of the crowd, slowly and orderly disembarking from the ship. At the port, staff were maintaining order.

"Thank you for your hard work on the journey. Please watch your step when disembarking!"

The three walked past the staff.

At that moment, Moriarty narrowed his eyes as if he had seen something, but he quickly recovered and continued to follow Fujimaru Ritsuka away with a normal expression.

Seeing the houses nestled on the hillside and hearing the cicadas chirping, Fujimaru Ritsuka cheered:

"reached!"
