[Conan] I have to work hard even if I lose my memory

Chapter 44 A Trip to the Hot Springs

On an ordinary weekday, after school, Mao Lilan and Conan decided on the content of dinner.

On the way back to the detective agency with vegetables, the two saw a shop that was doing a lottery.After seeing the list of prizes, Mao Lilan rolled up his sleeves and participated in it with great interest.

then……

On weekends, on the Shinkansen.

"Yoxi, you are indeed Xiaolan!" Conan couldn't see the triumphant look of Mori Kogoro.

Conan muttered, "Really. It was Xiaolan who won the lottery, not you." That's right, the lottery Ouhuang Molilan won the special prize again - an accommodation voucher for a hot spring hotel in Nagano Prefecture.

Fortunately, Mori Kogoro, who was still thinking about having an affair with a beautiful girl later, didn't notice Conan's muttering, and Conan escaped the iron fist of his uncle by luck.

It was a mixed-gender open-air hot spring bath...

"father!"

"Hey, wait, Xiaolan!!"

-

This hot spring hotel is surrounded by forests and streams. With the help of the terrain setting, the aesthetics of the Japanese garden is vividly displayed, and every tree and scene make people feel nostalgic.

The hotel buildings all adopt traditional Japanese architecture, and the scenery is quite charming. When you step into the interior, you feel like you are in the Taisho era.

The biggest feeling here is that it is out of touch with modern times, like a paradise, with almost no infrastructure around it, only woodland and hot springs.Probably for this reason, foreign guests are rarely seen here.

A girl with blonde curly hair in a red-bottomed bathrobe, with her toes curled up on clogs, paced unnaturally back to her room.

After seeing a middle-aged woman with an Asian face, I complained to her, "Can't you just find a hotel with a hot spring bathroom every room? I don't like taking abath in the public bath..."

[Can't you find a hotel with a hot spring bath in every room?I don't like taking a bath in a public bath. 】

"Infact, I don't like your description, Erica..."

[Actually, I don't like your description, Erica. ] The older woman spoke up, and she pointed out her mistake calmly like an ignorant child.

"You mean public bath? Who cares? Well, well, actually, what I want to say is their eyes..."

[You mean the public bathroom?who cares!Well well, actually, what I want to say is their gaze. 】

At the end of Erika's speech, under the gaze of the older woman, she swallowed a word that started with F that she was about to say.

"Then you have to get used to is your compulsory course, right?" [Then you have to get used to this.This is a required course for you, isn't it? 】

"Yah, yah. Okay, Greta..." [OK, ok.I know, Greta. 】After speaking, Erica added, "せんせい."【Teacher】

The elder, called Greta, was obviously satisfied with Erica's last name for her. After asking Erica where her brother Peter was now, and getting a reply that Peter had returned to the room, he stopped. Mess with the two of them, and after a few words of advice, he stepped out of the room alone.

Standing still on the stone bricks of the winding path, you can see greenery everywhere. Greta took a deep breath with nostalgia. She hadn't set foot on her homeland for many years.

This indulgence disappeared in less than a moment - she did not allow herself to lose her composure.

Opening and closing her eyes, she exhausted all her thoughts, and she returned to the appearance of an elegant and dignified woman, with a polite and distant smile, just like an ordinary tourist, admiring or commenting on the beautiful scenery.

Speaking of tourists, well, I should have changed into a yukata, that would make sense.But when Greta thought about it, it would be very strange to change it. After all, those people knew that they had been staying in the room.

Fortunately, the accommodation facilities here are all single-family buildings, and the dinner is also delivered to the room by the waiter, which reduces the chance of being monitored by those people.

It's nothing to hang around them a few times, and she and her two students can bear it.

If they wanted to fill their room with devices that could replace two eyes, her two students would jump around every minute.

Yesterday's dinner was good.The restaurant's menu emphasizes local ingredients, and although the dishes are simple and seasoned, they are really good.

Well, that group of people is estimated to retreat in these two days.

Greta diverted her thinking and walked aimlessly along the trail. Wherever the road extended, she would go there, just like an ordinary tourist.

Before her brain could fully react, Greta's body had already made a move.

She helped a little boy in front of her who almost fell due to the slippery road, and straightened his glasses, "Be careful, the road here is very slippery."

"Thank you sister."

"Conan, walk carefully. And thank you!"

"Stinky boy! Watch the way!" Mori Kogoro, who was walking side by side with another man and lagging behind, stepped forward quickly with an uneasy expression, and his eyes lit up instantly after touching Greta's face.

Stretching out his hand to straighten his tie, Kogoro Mori said seriously, "Hello, lady, thank you for taking care of this kid. My name is Kogoro Mori, I am a detective, everyone calls me 'Sleeping Name' Detective'! This is my business card, if you need anything, you can contact Maori Detective Agency, I am happy to help you!"

"Thank you." Greta accepted the business card, "Greta.【Greta】"

Conan, who was slandering the uncle for his stubbornness, suddenly raised his head when he heard it, and exclaimed, "Pearl!"

Greta did not question Conan's inexplicable expression, but patiently explained, "Yes. The word Greta means pearl."

"What do you want to do again? Kid!" Pulling Conan away from Greta, Mori Kogoro dodged to block Conan, and said with a smile, "What a good name. Well, with all due respect, you...are not local?"

"Father, it's true!" For the sake of the outside world, his caring little padded jacket reluctantly gave face to his worried father.

Mao Lilan took Conan's hand, and apologized to Conan and the receptionist who was neglected by his father, "Let's follow."

"Okay, sister Xiaolan." Conan obediently followed Mao Lilan's side, but his eyes kept on the woman named Greta.

Listening to the chat between Mori Kogoro and Greta, Conan also knew that this Asian woman named Greta was from the United States, and this was her first visit to Japan.

"First time? Miss Greta must visit Tokyo! I'd be happy to show you around as a local guide."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Mori."

……

Was he too nervous? Conan let out a long breath, seeing that everyone felt that the other party was a member of the organization.Ah——it's all the fault of Jindaisugi!

No way, who made Greta [Greta] the nickname of Margarita [Margarita], which means pearl.

What a coincidence.

Really, Conan once again secretly spurned himself, and was paranoid and suspicious all day long, looking at everything as if it had been stamped with the seal of the organization.

Soon, the Maori family separated from Greta.Mori Kogoro glanced at Greta's back with unsatisfied interest, and then belatedly remembered that there seemed to be a receptionist who had been neglected by him for a long time. "I'm so sorry, Saito-san."

"No, no, nothing." Saito Yoshinori waved his hand in denial, "Then I will take you and your family to the hall first?" He is a fan of the famous detective Mori Kogoro, how could he blame such a thing? statement.

"no problem……"
