After Conan and Lingchuan came back, they were a little confused when they saw the answer sheets handed to them.

Hattori Heiji was keeping an eye on Lingchuan all the time. When he saw them, he stepped forward and started explaining.

This concludes today's schedule.

Lingchuan and Hiroki were not interested in the '1,000 Questions of Sherlock Holmes' quiz, nor were they interested in the 'collector's edition book' that Kanaya Hiroyuki used as a prize.

But Conan, with shining eyes, held the test in his arms and confirmed with Hiroyuki Kanaya whether he could also participate in the question-and-answer session.

After getting the affirmation, Conan ran away without even eating dinner.

Obviously he was going back to his room to answer the questions seriously.

Lingchuan didn't care about all this. After seeing Conan leave, he asked Hiroki if he needed to rest. After getting a negative answer, he took Hiroki out for a walk.

Because this hotel is built on the top of a mountain, you can see the rushing sea when looking down.

Under the moon, the scene of waves hitting the huge cliffs has a kind of cool and gorgeous beauty.

Not only him, but astrologer Maria Toda also came out for a stroll.

At this point, the remaining people in the hotel also found something to do, either sitting and reading a book, or starting to flip through the 1,000-question test in the living room.

Hattori Heiji leaned against the door and counted the time.

Five minutes after Lingchuan took Hongshu out, he pulled his hat and walked out the door.

Kogoro Mouri yawned and said he wanted to go back to sleep.

Needless to say, Mao Lilan has always been like a soulless puppet. She only has some spirit when she speaks.

Zhan Tang You Shi could see every move of everyone.

He patted the test paper in his hand and walked towards his own guest room with a normal expression.

Before entering the door, he looked up at the camera at the end of the corridor and smiled slightly.

After entering, he gently locked the door, threw the test away, and took out another mobile phone from his calf.

Pressing the screen, he quickly edited a message and sent it out.

【It is a good book.】

Do you think you can own it completely?

Hiroyuki Kanaya, who was lying in the room, was originally very relaxed.

But the message from his phone made him look tense:

【Who are you? 】

[Are you from the hotel? ]

He clenched his fists, his eyes flickering:

"I told Renmei to put away all her cell phones, damn it..."

Having not received a reply, Hiroyuki Kanaya felt as if he had been scratched by a cat.

Although he was confident that no one could get hold of the rare collector's edition, the text messages in his mobile phone were constantly irritating him.

Finally, unable to bear it any longer, Jin Gu Yu got out of bed and rushed to the storage room.

Take the box against the wall in the innermost corner, open the mezzanine, and then open the safe.

"Whoo~"

The beloved rare copy was kept intact inside.

But then he thought again, that the guy who didn't hand in his phone actually dared to send such a text message to threaten him, and Kanaya Hiroyuki's mood became very ugly again.

"Humph!"

He holds such a party every year, of course, to show off to others this unique copy he owns.

The so-called test has a thousand questions. No matter whether others can answer more than 990 points within a day, no one can win this book in the final question-and-answer session!

Over the years, Hiroyuki Kanaya has never made a mistake in this regard.

But this year seems a little different.

"Who saw my intention?"

"still……"

Kanaya Hiroyuki scowled.

His originally chubby and cute face was now filled with indifference and anger.

As a Sherlock Holmes fan, Hiroyuki Kanaya not only worships him, he also tries several times to prove that he is the modern Sherlock Holmes!

This annual tour is what he calls proof of that.

It is carried out every year and questions are set every year.

But no one can see through his true purpose, which has always been what Kanaya Hiroyuki is proud of.

But an accident happened today, which made Hiroyuki Kanaya very angry.

He reviewed the people he had met today in his memory.

"Could it be him?" Maori Kogoro's face froze in his mind, and Kanaya Hiroyuki narrowed his eyes, "It shouldn't be..."

It was obvious that under his test, Kogoro Mori should not be able to perform well?

While he was thinking, Hiroyuki Kanaya did not notice that a dark shadow had quietly approached him from behind.

When he realized something was wrong, he was suddenly hit hard on the forehead!

Then, the world fell into darkness.

Chapter 118: Mutation; If you don’t hand it over, you will die

"What does the innkeeper want that requires us to come here so late?" Kogoro Mouri yawned, looking as if he had not yet woken up.

"I'm not sure, but I think it must be something very important." After waking up from a nap, Mao Lilan seemed to be in much better condition.

She rubbed her eyes and looked at the time, "It's already two o'clock..."

"Why hasn't the innkeeper come yet?"

Everyone was standing or sitting in the living room with unhappy expressions. The waitress Renmei was also yawning.

After Hattori Heiji looked at the wall clock for the fourth time, he finally couldn't help asking, "I say, your boss wouldn't have remembered the time wrong, right?"

"The Q&A session is supposed to be tomorrow night, and it's almost three o'clock now."

Iwai Hitomi shook her head. "I'm not sure either. My boss never told me."

"Maybe I forgot to inform you about something before." Compared to everyone else, Conan was full of energy and sat at the dining table, swinging his legs happily. "Let's wait and see, is that okay?"

As he spoke, his gaze slowly moved across everyone's faces, finally landing on Lingchuan.

"Why do I feel like there's someone missing?"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Lingchuan was the first to react because he was caught by Conan's gaze, "Toba Kento."

"He's gone."

"Kento?" After hearing what Lingchuan said, the woman who had been following Kento Toba and mocking Kogoro Mori together, Oki Ayako, was shocked.

"Is he still sleeping in his room?"

"Isn't Miss Ayako his girlfriend? Didn't you call him when you came over?"

Hattori Heiji had a lazy expression on his face and asked the question seemingly without meaning to.

Unexpectedly, Oki Ayako got a little excited. "What do you mean by that? I didn't go to call for help because I saw the waiter knock on the door."

As she spoke, Oki Ayako folded her hands and lit a cigarette, and snorted, "If I have to go in and out of this hotel with him because I'm his girlfriend, then does that mean you have to hang out with them too?"

Unexpectedly, he would be involved. Lingchuan looked over in surprise.

When I met Oki Ayako's eyes, I heard her talk nonstop, "You must be here for someone, right?"

"Don't think I didn't notice. When they first arrived, you were hiding in the dark and observing them like a shameful rat."

"You seem to care about that child very much?" Ooki Ayako raised her chin and looked at Conan with a sharp gaze.

Mao Lilan was stunned, not really understanding the situation at the moment: "Care? Conan?"

Conan, who was called out, was a little at a loss.

He looked at Ooki Ayako with a confused look on his face.

Ooki Ayako, who didn't know what she had said, didn't care what others thought of her. She stared at Hattori Heiji with a burning gaze, "That kid seems to be too smart. That's why you've been secretly paying attention to him, right?"

Conan was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He looked at Hattori Heiji, then at Oki Ayako, and finally looked at Lingchuan with a look for help.

Receiving Conan's gaze, Lingchuan shook his head slightly.

He couldn't understand why it turned out like this. It seemed that Oki Ayako's observation skills were too sharp.

Is it true that he is a Sherlock Holmes fan?

Hattori Heiji himself did not expect that Oki Ayako would explode at any moment.

Although he was controlled by her for a few seconds, Hattori Heiji was not the kind of person who would easily follow other people's ideas.

Ooki Ayako's reaction to this stress can only mean that she knows something.

Moreover, this is definitely not a good thing! It is also related to the disappearance of Kento Toba!

"You're too excited," Hattori Heiji shook his head after figuring out the key to the problem, but because he didn't know what Oki Ayako was hiding, he didn't give any details.

He just gently said, "I'm just asking casually."

"Humph."

Seeing that Hattori had given in, Ooki Ayako bit her cigarette and said nothing more.

Except for Kogoro Mori and the hotel waiter, everyone else present at the moment had noticed something to some extent, but no one pointed it out.

Just then, the innkeeper who had gathered everyone together finally came out.
