"Let's introduce the biggest highlight of this renovation: the world's first dual-wheel Ferris wheel! The Ferris wheel is divided into a south wheel and a north wheel, requiring passengers to board from different directions..."

"Wow!"

Looking at the Ferris wheel surrounded by searchlights in the middle of the picture and with a bright and dazzling display on the side screen, several children staring at the screens of their mobile phones exclaimed in surprise, and it was obvious that they were very much looking forward to today's trip.

"The biggest attraction is the fountains and lights on both sides." Regarding the aquarium, which is a dazzling spectacle in the picture, Tang Ze said pertinently, "It was designed for the light show, I think."

In order to focus on the so-called ultimate play experience, Dongdu Aquarium has built almost all of its facilities and passages indoors and underground to ensure that no matter what the weather is, it will not affect the normal passage and play of tourists.

It’s made to look like Shinsaibashi in Osaka, with a kind of beauty that says “Don’t stop me from making money.”

If we really discuss the design itself, it's okay. But at night, the light pollution makes Tang Ze feel like he has found a new palace, and it's so bright that it's scary.

"This design is still very expensive," Huihara Ai said honestly. "The Ferris wheels on both sides use different shafts, so the maintenance cost will be very high. For such a large fountain show, coupled with the lighting, the fresh water filter alone is very expensive."

"Hey, but isn't the aquarium built in the sea? Can't we just use seawater?" Ayumi Yoshida, who was next to her, was curious.

"Such a complex fountain show requires very high standards for nozzle design, equipment, and pipelines. Seawater is highly corrosive. Rather than spending so much money on corrosion-resistant materials, it's better to filter fresh water directly." Haibara Ai analyzed the situation rationally and concluded, "Their determination to make money is indeed strong."

However, considering the frequency of accidents at amusement parks around Tokyo, Haibara Ai felt that if she wanted to succeed here, instead of focusing on this kind of selling point, she could simply avoid getting into trouble and outperform 99% of her peers...

"Isn't this fun too? Let's go ride the Ferris wheel after we get there!" Ayumi Yoshida became excited as she looked at the beautiful amusement facilities on the screen.

"But didn't you guys mainly want to go to the aquarium?" Conan's eyebrows twitched when he heard the word "Ferris wheel". "The two places are not in the same area."

"It would be great if everyone could go!" Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko was excited. "Nowadays, if we go there, we can ride the Ferris wheel in the evening..."

"Then I'll need double the admission tickets." Huiyuan Ai smiled, "Doctor, I'm counting on you."

It is naturally impossible for people to just buy a ticket and enter such a major facility that requires a lot of effort. Theme parks are not for fools.

Not only will there be special admission tickets, but there will also be fast lanes and regular lanes, with separate queues.

In short, you have to pay more.

Dr. Agasa sighed with some pain, but he didn't spoil the fun: "Oh, I know. Okay, it's agreed that today's all my fault..."

"yeah!"

Before he could finish, the children in the car cheered, and his originally bitter expression turned into a smile.

Since we are all out playing, don’t spoil the fun too much. Just make sure the children have fun.

----

The Beetle quickly arrived at its destination.

Even though they knew there was no point in rushing, when the doctor said they had to go to the ticket office separately to buy tickets, the children could no longer sit still and followed the crowd faster than the doctor, running to the queue at the ticket office together.

"He's so energetic, it seems like he never gets tired of playing."

Conan held his forehead and had no intention of following the doctor to cause more trouble. He stood obediently at the entrance map with Ai Karasawa Haibara.

"For kids who love to play, the most fun part of a spring outing isn't actually the actual time they're out, but the night before, filled with beautiful fantasies about tomorrow." Haibara Ai spread her hands, indicating she understood the children's perspective. "Anticipation is a big part of happiness; it's what makes the outing fun."

"Really?" Conan touched his chin, thinking uncertainly, "I can't remember that..."

"Don't look at me." Tang Ze didn't meet his gaze and replied calmly, "I haven't been on a spring outing."

Conan opened his mouth to say something, then thought that Tang Ze might not be talking nonsense: "..."

He pursed his lips and turned away, intending to check out the tour routes in the park in advance. When he turned around, he met a pair of clear yet confused eyes.

Conan was stunned.

These eyes clearly belonged to an adult, but they were bright and clean, as if they were gleaming with light, just like the three children who had just run away without looking back.

What is even more eye-catching is not just the expression of these eyes, but the completely different and unique colors on the left and right sides.

At this moment, the owner of the eyes was looking at the surrounding environment with curiosity, with his hands placed very neatly on his knees, revealing a subtle sense of abnormality.

Unlike this pair of eyes belonging to a child, the owner of these eyes has a mature and beautiful face, with dazzling and brilliant silver hair that seems to have a metallic luster in the sun and is tied up high. The deep outline reminds her that she is definitely not of Asian descent.

Conan, who had just experienced a related incident, instinctively came up with a word in his mind.

Foreigners, or like this morning's murderer, people of foreign descent...

Ugh, it feels like something is contaminated.

To get the strange things out of his mind, Conan tugged at the sleeves of his two friends left and right, and raised his chin to signal them to pay attention in that direction.

"Is that a foreigner? Isn't the rate of foreigners we've encountered a bit high today..."

"The one who killed people was just a half-blood. He was actually a Japanese who couldn't speak English." Haibara Ai corrected her and then looked away.

With just one glance, the smile on her face faded.

Noticing her change, Tang Ze looked down at her expression with interest.

Did Haibara Ai know that there was a person named Curacao in the organization? Most likely, she knew him, at least she must have heard of his code name.

However, considering that when Curacao became Rum's subordinate, Miyano Shiho was probably still in elementary school in the United States, it is very likely that she did not participate in Curacao's actual "treatment".

Therefore, even though she vaguely knew from Tang Ze that he was in contact with a code member named Curacao, it was hard to say how much Haibara Ai knew about what Curacao looked like or what characteristics he had.

However, now, after just one look, Haibara Ai's expression changed drastically.

That's strange, isn't her organizational radar usually dynamic?

For example, if Toru Amuro and Shuichi Akai don't intentionally show their villainous side, Haibara Ai won't react much.

Then the source of this change becomes a little interesting.

Haibara Ai instinctively raised her hand and tightly grasped Tang Ze's wrist, as if trying hard to suppress some emotion, and then before Conan noticed, she returned to her previous smile.

"...I feel like something's wrong, let's go take a look." She suggested softly, but she couldn't help but take a step forward before she finished half of her words.

Conan did not raise any objections, thinking that Haibara Ai also noticed the incongruity in this person and followed him.

In just a short while, he observed several guys who were sneaking around and seemed to be paying attention to the silver-haired woman's condition. It seemed that she must have been sitting here for quite some time.

Maybe something happened.

"...Sister, are you okay?"

Curacao, who was in a daze, took a few beats longer before slowly turning his head to look at the source of the sound.

Short little boys and girls stood in front of her, looking up at her.

"'Sister'? Are you calling me?" Curacao raised his hand and pointed at his face.

My memory is still stuck in Curacao when I was less than 10 years old, so I naturally have no sense of reality for this name.

In fact, if the person speaking had not had a childish and clear voice, she would not have realized that he was calling her if she had been given another minute or two.

"Yeah, sister, why are you sitting here alone?" Conan looked at her clothes and found something unusual. "You look injured..."

It is true that the collision and being hit were a scene designed by Tang Ze, but the car accident really happened. Tang Ze just used some behind-the-scenes operations after the scene was out of sight to prevent the party involved in the accident from getting into trouble.

Of course, Yuya Kazami, who played the role of protector and served as a human cushion, was more seriously injured, but Curacao was not unscathed either.

The scratches from sea water were on her skin, which was paler than that of Asians, and it was an almost hideous bluish-red color that was very eye-catching.

The bruises that showed through the edge of her already torn skirt made the calm and ignorant Curacao look even weirder.

"I..." Curacao lowered his head, looked at the scar on his knee, and only answered Conan's first question, "I'm here, waiting for my sister."

"Sister? Are you here with someone?"

"Well, my sister said she wanted to go buy something..."

Conan, who had begun to think about the special situation, became alert.

Her choice of words was very awkward, and although she was speaking normal Japanese, she didn't sound like someone who was accustomed to speaking Japanese.

This is very strange, and the words she used are very un-adult-like.

Even though Caucasian appearance can be deceptive about age, her face looks more like a Slav's, so logically, she should be 20 years old.

Combined with this expression that is completely inconsistent with her age, and her seemingly injured state, and near the amusement park...

Conan was already wondering whether he should call the police or the hospital.

Carefully approaching her and confirming the condition of her wounds, Huiyuan Ai asked, "Sister, what's your name?"

"...Name. Sonya. My name is Sonya."

"Sonya. Hmm, she also looks Slavic..." Conan muttered, then asked, "What about your sister's sister? Do you know her name?"

As he spoke, he had already turned his head to look at the park hotline written on the map sign.

Although Sonya looks like an adult, her reactions and words make people feel that she only has the mind of a child.

In this case, even if it is proven that there is no personal injury, the child must be taken to the amusement park's service center and searched for using the radio according to the standards for lost children.

"I don't know." Curacao thought for a moment and slowly shook his head, "I don't know what my sister's name is."

In the few short days since entering the base, apart from Tang Ze who brought her back, she had only come into contact with Miyano Akemi and Natalie.

Curacao, who has not recovered her memory, is still a sensitive little girl psychologically. Apart from basic care, no one will disturb her easily.

So even after being taken care of for several days, she really didn't know how to call Miyano Akemi, and could only call her sister.

"I don't know..." Conan frowned.

If this basic information is missing, then things may get a bit troublesome.

"Let me do it." Huiyuan Ai stepped forward and stretched out her hands. "Can you lower your head so I can see?"

Curacao looked at the cute and gentle girl in front of him, lowered his head without resistance, and let Huihara Ai check the scratches on her face and the sides of her head.

Feeling a faint lump, Haibara Ai quickly frowned and quickly checked her shirt pockets, hands and feet.

"There's no cell phone, no wristband for inpatients, and no sign with any contact information..." Huibara Ai pursed her lips and shook her head. "Maybe she really got lost, or had an accident. There are signs of trauma on her head."

Generally speaking, if the patient is sick, no matter how careless the family members are, they cannot be so careless as to not allow the patient to carry any identification and run around like that.

"Brain injury caused by external force, or degenerative amnesia?"

"Probably……"

As the two of them were observing and discussing among themselves whether they should call the police early, the elementary school students who had grabbed a few tickets were already running back in a hurry.

"Ai! Conan! And brother Karasawa! Your tickets have been bought, you can go ride the Ferris wheel--"

The little girl's clear voice came loudly, and Curacao, whose cheek was released by Haibara Ai, raised his head and noticed Ayumi Yoshida running towards them at a glance.

The three children who were running fast in front, leaving Professor Agasa behind, also saw Curacao sitting on the bench.

"who is this?"

"This person I don't know seems to be a foreigner..."

"This is the first... oh no, Brother Tang Ze doesn't seem to be a foreigner..."

When Conan heard their sighs and the unconscious use of the word "also", the corner of his mouth twitched. He was about to remind them that they could understand Japanese when he saw Ayumi Yoshida approaching and her eyes lit up.

"Sister, your eyes are different colors on the left and right!" She laughed. "I think I've seen eyes like this before... They're really beautiful!"
