Nagai Hikaru's Ke Xuexing

Chapter 291: 2 County Boundaries

The journey, which was supposed to take five hours, arrived at the rooftop helipad of a high-end hotel in Gunma in half an hour. The hotel waiter helped to take down the luggage, and the hotel's private luxury car took Karasuma Akimitsu, Haneki Haku and their two dogs to the destination hotel.

The total time was just over an hour.

But it was still past eleven o'clock, because Karasuma Akimitsu was playing with Sally Harrow, and then he took cold medicine and his mouth felt bitter and he wanted to eat cake.

It will be too late if you delay.

"It's a pity that Sonoko isn't coming, but if Sonoko isn't coming, I don't have to take care of those kids. At least I don't have to drive here." Karasuma Akimitsu simply felt that it was too dangerous to ride in a helicopter with Conan and the other kids, so when going out with them, he would definitely take public transportation, and the more people riding, the better.

When they arrived at the hotel parking lot, Karasuma Akimitsu waited for Haba Shira to open the car door for him, and Sally and Haroshita jumped out of the car.

Because it was too late, Sally and Harrow were already sleepy and stood on the ground yawning in a daze.

Karasuma Akimitsu stretched himself and said, "It's too late today."

Bai Yuba held the reins of Sally and Harrow, looked back at the hotel, and frowned slightly.

"What's wrong?" Karasuma Akimitsu saw that Hayao Haku had a strange expression on his face.

Sally and Harrow also looked alert, their hair standing on end, and looked into the parking lot.

"Is there a smell of blood?" Haba Haku raised his hand to block Karasuma Mingguang, "Wait here, I'll go over and take a look."

Karasuma Akimitsu stood obediently and watched Haba Haku lead the two dogs into the darkness of the parking lot.

After a while, Sally's dog barked fiercely. Even the quiet Harold barked a few times. A few minutes later, Yuba Baiqiang came back with the two dogs. "There is a body in the parking lot. It should have just died. I have called the police."

Karasuma Akimitsu's eyes widened: "Conan is here?"

"..." Hanaba Haku shook his head, "No, I asked before. He and Mr. Maori will do a commission this weekend to find the client's son who ran away from home."

"…So this means that I am unlucky myself." Karasuma Akimitsu sighed.

"Xiaoguang, go and have a rest. I'll take you to the hotel room first." Haku Yuba turned his head to look inside the parking lot, then took Karasuma Akimitsu into the hotel first.

"Row."

When Haba Shiro sent Karasuma Akimitsu and the dogs into the room and went downstairs, the police from Gunma Prefecture had already arrived. First, the police stared at the location of the body for a while, and then made a phone call: "Inspector Yamamura, there is a problem. The body is located on the dividing line. ...Yes, the dividing line between Ueno and Gunma."

"Demarcation line?" Haneba Shiro frowned, "Will the police from Ueno come over too?"

The police officer who arrived first had already hung up the phone and started to use the yellow cordon to block the scene with his colleagues. He turned to look at Yuba Bai when he heard his question: "Ah, you are the one who reported the case, right? That's right, for cases like this on the demarcation line, we will work together to handle the case."

"...I found the body at 11:10 and didn't see the murderer. Can I go to rest now?" Bai Yuba already wanted to leave the scene.

"Please wait a moment, Inspector Yamamura will be here soon."

"Sorry, you can summon me when you need my testimony. I'm a little tired now." Bai Yuba turned around, took out his cell phone and walked towards his room: Sorry, I almost forgot that there is a police officer named Morobushi Takaaki in Nagano Prefecture.

.

The next day, when Karasuma Akimitsu woke up, he heard a commotion below.

When I opened the window, I saw Shiro Yuba being pulled by the hem of his windbreaker.

"Xiao Jing, it's me, it's me, I'm Xiao Cao." The man was wearing a blue suit and had a subtle comedian-like appearance.

"Sorry, you may have the wrong person." Bai Yuba wanted to pull out a corner of his windbreaker, but the other party held it too firmly.

"How is that possible? You haven't changed at all. Xiao Jing, Zhu Fu Jing Guang, it's me, I, Shancun Cao. When we were young, we agreed to be partners in justice."

Haneba Haku sighed, "My name is Haneba Haku, I don't know any Yamamura Cao. I grew up in Tokyo and have basically never been to Gunma except for tourism."

"Eh?" Yamamura So let go of Haba Shiro's windbreaker, took out his phone and pulled up a photo, "Look, this! Is this you?"

In the distance, three people walked into the scene surrounded by cordon.

Seeing that Karasuma Mingguang was leaning against the window and watching intently, Sally also squeezed up, pushing Karasuma Mingguang away a little.

"Sally, you must be over 90 pounds again. I'm going to tell Shuichi that you need to lose weight." Karasuma Akimitsu was easily pushed aside by Sally, and was subtly depressed. "Okay, okay, stop looking and let's go down. Soba noodles soba noodles."

When they arrived at the restaurant downstairs, Karasuma Akimitsu was shocked: "Conan?!"

"Brother Karasuma." Conan's voice was strangely obedient, "Officer Yamamura asked Uncle Mori to help with the case. We happen to be in Gunma Prefecture."

Karasuma Akimitsu looked around and saw that the hotel lobby was full of people. The police who were in the parking lot just now seemed to have arrived in the lobby.

Haba Haku walked over to Karasuma Akimitsu and said, "I have already reserved soba noodles. We can go to the restaurant to eat. But Sally and the others cannot enter the restaurant. Let's take them to the front desk first."

Zhu Fu Gao Ming, who was standing at the back, looked at it for a while, and after confirming something, he came over, looked at Wu Wan Ming Guang and said with a smile: "Hello, it's been a long time since we last met."

"We haven't seen it." Karasuma Akimitsu answered simply.

Conan pulled on the sleeve of Karasuma Akimitsu's haori and said loudly, "This is Karasuma brother."

"Karasuma?"

"Karasuma Akimitsu." Karasuma Akimitsu nodded gently, "Hello."

Morifushi Takaaki looked at Karasuma Akimitsu, then turned to look at Haba Haku, and extended his hand and said, "Hello, my name is Morifushi Takaaki, and I'm a police officer in Nagano Prefecture."

"Hello." Karasuma Akimitsu stretched out his hand, shook the fingers of Zhufu Gaoming briefly, and then quickly let go. "If everything is fine, I'll go eat."

Maori Kogoro stood at the back, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Mr. Karasuma, what are you doing in Gunma Prefecture?"

"Come and eat soba noodles and take the dog on a short trip." Karasuma Akimitsu looked down at Conan, "Would you like to eat soba noodles?"

"it is good."

Yuba Bai said calmly to Zhufu Gaoming: "The basic inquiry has just been completed, right? Can we leave now?"

Zhu Fu Gao Ming looked at Yu Ba Bai, hesitant to speak, and finally exhaled: "Okay, when you think of any new eyewitness clues, please tell us."

Haku Haba nodded and walked towards the restaurant with Karasuma Akimitsu.

Conan was being pulled along by Karasuma Akimitsu, when Maori Kogoro came over and punched him on the head: "Come back, why are you following? You've already had breakfast."

"Eh?"

Karasuma Akimitsu turned his head in confusion. Maori Kogoro picked up Conan and smiled at Karasuma Akimitsu: "He has already had breakfast. You guys go ahead."

After Karasuma Akimitsu and Haba Shiro were out of sight, Maori Kogoro pulled Conan's ear and said, "Just solve the case well, kid, and stop thinking about running around with Xiaoguang."

"I've heard the clues and wanted to ask Mr. Yuba if he saw more." Conan complained.

"That Yuba...is he the public security officer?" Kogoro Mouri said in a low voice.

Conan looked up at Kogoro Mouri in surprise.

"The public security officers specifically go to be Xiaoguang's bodyguards. It seems that Xiaoguang has more troubles than you. You'd better stay out of trouble." Maori Kogoro said with a grin.

Conan touched his red ear and said: Although this conclusion is correct.

After letting Harrow and Sally stay at the front desk, Karasuma Akimitsu and Haba Haku entered the restaurant. As soon as they sat down, Karasuma Akimitsu sneezed loudly, his eyes reddened, he took out a tissue to cover his nose and wiped his snot: "My nose has been itching just now."

Haba Bai chuckled and took out a box of medicine from his windbreaker pocket: "Take two more pills today."

"That Zhufu Takaaki looks very similar to you." Karasuma Akimitsu reached out to take the pills, and the waiter came over and served them water and soba noodles.

Habashiro was silent for a while, picked up the soba noodles with chopsticks and put them down again, as if thinking about how to start the conversation.

"Are they relatives from Scotland?" Karasuma Akimitsu spoke first.

"...Yes, he is his brother."

"Is it embarrassing?"

Habashiro put down his chopsticks and placed his hands on the table: "What a coincidence, that man actually died on the border, and the police on both sides happened to know him."

Karasuma Mingguang took a bite of noodles and put down his chopsticks in boredom: "The taste is just average. Those people who seem to be eating delicious food in the video are really lying."

Habashiro lowered his head and smiled, "Yeah, it's just soba noodles after all."

"Can you tell me about the case? You got up so early in the morning, so you must have heard everything?" Karasuma Akimitsu picked up the water cup and swallowed the pills that Yuba had handed to him earlier.

Bai Yuba narrated the case in a straightforward manner, with the same three suspects. However, this time there was video surveillance from the parking lot, which showed the hooded murderer hitting the victim to death with some heavy object.

Karasuma Akimitsu was still holding the water cup, his expression was tangled for a while, and he sneezed violently. Because he forgot to turn his head, he looked at the two bowls of soba in front of him awkwardly, and then pushed both bowls of soba aside: "Sorry, please ask someone to bring another one."

Haku Yuba inexplicably relaxed a little: "Forget it, I don't have much appetite, and lunch will be here soon."

"I got up late again." Karasuma Akimitsu took out his cell phone and checked the time. It was already past ten o'clock.

"It's okay to sleep a little longer on the weekends." Yuba Bai's voice was calm and gentle, with a calming aura.

"But Conan actually came here." Karasuma Akimitsu wiped his nose with a tissue and felt a little blocked. He raised his hand and used his sleeve to cover half of his face and rubbed it on his nose.

Habashiro took out a mask from his windbreaker and handed it over. "Yes, he said that he found the client's son in Gunma Prefecture this morning and called Officer Yamamura to ask if there was anything delicious to eat in Gunma Prefecture. What a coincidence."

"...I suddenly want to eat soba noodles. What a coincidence." Just after he finished speaking, Karasuma Akimitsu took the mask, and a flash of light flashed in his mind, "A few days ago, a film crew came to the Karasuma family to ask for sponsorship and investment to shoot a stage play of Maori Kogoro."

Habashiro didn't understand how quickly the topic was jumping.

"I agreed. It seems that their script will be out next month in Kyoto. Let's go to Kyoto next month and take a look at their stage play."

"Okay, but why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

"It's rare for the two of us to go out and have fun, but something like this happened. You must not be in the mood to have fun, right? Especially when you run into someone you know in Scotland."

“Is this… compensation?”

"It's a protest against the bad soba noodles."
