The person inside was none other than Sakura's mother, Nadeshiko.

The girl in the photo is still as beautiful and charming as ever.

Sakura stroked it carefully, then looked around and placed the photo frame on the table by the window.

This is the brightest and most shining place. You can see the gate directly and feel the brilliant sunshine.

"This way I can greet you every time I come in or out~" Sakura chuckled, leaning her arms on the table, supporting her face with her hands, and said with a smile, "Oka-san, we are going to stay here together for two days. How about it? It's beautiful here, right?"

In the photo, Nadeshiko is wearing a pink dress and her smile is as bright as the sunshine.

In the brilliant light, Sakura had the illusion that her mother in the photo was looking at her.

"Huh?" Sakura blinked her eyelashes and rubbed her eyes quickly.

Take a closer look.

But I found that the photos were still the same as usual.

She pursed her lips: "Mom, I miss you a little."

Take a deep breath.

Sakura clenched her fist and cheered herself up.

"Mom must be missing me too. I'll be looking forward to the next two days!"

Soon Sakura was back to her lively self again.

------

The other side of the mountain.

A girl was walking in the woods with a child.

They were not driving on the highway like Sakura and the others.

Instead, he went deep into the mountains, walked in the dense old forest, and seemed to be lost.

The surrounding trees are tall and straight, blocking out the sun, with heavy shade and shadows.

The two walked here, and even though it was broad daylight, the surrounding environment was a little dim.

"Sister Xiaolan, do you really know the way?"

The child following the girl felt that he had been walking for a long time, but not only did he not feel like he was on the right track, he even seemed to have gone to the wrong place.

"Are we lost here?"

"No, don't worry, Conan."

The girl held the map and observed it carefully, while casually saying something to comfort the child beside her.

In fact, even she had no idea, because she might have really taken the wrong path.

The two of them had already wandered around in this deep forest for several times, but couldn't find the path they were supposed to take.

"Really?"

The child twitched his lips.

It turns out that the two people are Xiaolan and Conan. The reason why they came here is a few days ago.

At that time, Conan helped Uncle Maori solve another case.

It turned out to be related to Sonoko and the others.

It is said that someone imitated Kaito Kid and tried to steal diamonds from a jewelry store owned by their family, but was caught red-handed by Conan and Uncle Maori.

After knowing this, Sonoko insisted on taking Xiaolan with her to go on vacation to a cabin in the woods owned by their family during the summer vacation to express her gratitude.

Xiaolan didn't want to go at first, after all, the shock of the last trip to Moon Shadow Island was still vivid in her mind.

And recently, I have encountered many murders with Conan and Uncle Mouri.

After finally having a vacation, she really just wanted to stay at home for a few days, not wanting to do anything or go anywhere.

But Nahe Yuanzi heard about their last trip and insisted on inviting her to come and relax with them.

And she felt like if Xiaolan didn't go, she would stick to her like a follower every day.

In the end, Xiaolan couldn't resist Sonoko's enthusiasm and agreed.

Since they were on vacation anyway, she might as well bring Conan along.

In order to avoid leaving Conan at home, Uncle Maori would not even cook for him.

What if when I return, people have starved to death?

Xiaolan held the map in her hand and looked at it for a long time. Various routes appeared before her eyes. She even felt that she could no longer tell which road was which.

After hesitating for a while, she felt embarrassed.

"Should, shouldn't there be any? I was just following the instructions on the map, how could I get wrong? It's really strange..." Xiaolan muttered.

Conan sighed: "Sister Xiaolan, please show me the map."

Conan took the map from Xiaolan's hand, compared it, and found that under Xiaolan's leadership, the path they took was indeed correct.

"They're actually heading this way?" Conan looked puzzled. "Isn't this route a bit too circuitous... Is that cabin in the woods really a vacation spot? It's so remote, if something happens, it'll be hard to get help."

But since they were going this way, Conan couldn't say anything more and could only continue walking forward with Xiaolan.

After a while, they didn't know how long they had been walking before they finally saw the cabin in the woods that Yuanzi had mentioned.

Standing in the distance, you can see the outline of the villa in front.

Xiaolan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now she really thought she had taken the wrong path. Although she was very familiar with Conan, she would still be very embarrassed if she really led him down a wrong path.

"Luckily, I didn't go the wrong way. It's just that this place is remote, desolate, and cold..."

Xiaolan started to speak, but she couldn't help but stop halfway through her words.

Why do I feel like there isn't a single good word in these descriptions...

For some unknown reason, Xiaolan suddenly felt a bit of a bad premonition in her heart.

She always felt that this vacation might not go too smoothly.

"Pah, pah, pah! What a crow's mouth! We live in a society ruled by law now, so there aren't so many bad people! This vacation will definitely go smoothly!"

Chapter 394 Conan: Are you a human being if you try to steal my girl in front of me?

"We've reached the top of the mountain, haven't we?"

Conan looked at the seemingly bottomless ravine ahead, and the corners of his mouth twitched. "Why build the villa in such a dangerous place? If the bridge breaks down, won't we be trapped on it?"

"Ah? This bridge looks very strong, how could it break so easily?" Xiaolan tilted her head and didn't quite agree with what Conan said.

Hearing this, Conan was speechless.

If the bridge is really going to break, no matter how strong it is, it can't be stopped.

But he did not directly refute Xiaolan.

In fact, this is just his reasonable doubt and concern.

"Besides, can we go down the mountain from the other side of the villa? We can ask when we find the garden. If we can go there, we shouldn't come up from here." Xiaolan muttered.

Conan: ...

"Yes, Sister Xiaolan, was the man on the bridge also invited by Yuanzi? Do you know him?"

Xiaolan and Ran were walking past a big tree. Conan saw that there seemed to be someone standing at the bridge head, who seemed to want to go over as well. He couldn't help but point and asked Xiaolan.

"That's true, but I don't think I know him. He looks a little strange. I guess he's one of Sonoko's other friends, but I just haven't met him before."

Xiaolan also saw the man in black robe on the bridge. At first glance, she felt that the other person's outfit was very strange, giving people an extremely uncomfortable feeling.

At the same time, the man in black robe standing at the bridge seemed to have heard the conversation between Xiaolan and Conan. He paused, slowly turned around and faced the two of them.

The moment you see the other person's true face.

Conan and the others were stunned.

I saw this strange man in a black robe, his face covered with bandages, with only a pair of sinister eyes exposed.

The black robe covered all parts of his body except his face, but Xiaolan had already imagined the image of the man in black robe wrapped in bandages.

The forest was quite dark at this time, and the tall trees blocked the scorching sunlight.

This made the surrounding environment seem quite gloomy, and ripples of fear gradually emerged in Xiaolan's heart.

To be honest, in such a deep forest, she suddenly met a strange man with bandages all over his body, wearing a black robe, and staring at her with his eyes like a sentry... She couldn't help but be scared.

However, Xiaolan's first reaction was not to think that this guy was a ghost or something like that.

After all, the other party is obviously a physical entity.

Although she was afraid of anyone with a body, she wouldn't be that afraid.

And when this person appeared here, Xiaolan was not sure whether he was invited by her good friend Sonoko.

"Um..." Xiaolan opened her mouth and was about to say something.

However, the man in black robe suddenly turned his head, ran across the wooden bridge, and entered the dense woods beside the villa.

The wooden bridge was not too long, and the man in black robe ran across it in just a few steps.

Xiaolan was startled by the other party's actions. She stood there with Conan, watching the bandaged monster leave with a look of surprise.

"Is this Sonoko's friend? She doesn't seem like him..." Xiaolan pursed her lips and didn't want to move forward.

She was just wondering if there would be any trouble on this vacation.

I suddenly met such a strange person.

I lost it~

"Is my mouth so sharp? I usually ask Shinichi to come back quickly, but he never comes back!" Xiaolan was angry.

Conan didn't know that Xiaolan was cursing him in her heart, and was analyzing the situation of the man just now in her mind.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Sister Xiaolan, let's go find Sister Yuanzi as soon as possible. If we ask her about the person's situation, we'll know. If we don't know her, we should remind everyone to close the doors and windows at night."

"That's right. If it's a strange person, we must tell Sonoko." Xiaolan nodded.

When she saw that guy for the first time, she was indeed a little scared.

But it was broad daylight and the other party ran away when he saw her, so it must not be a ghost.

Now that it had a physical form, her fear of the bandaged monster dissipated a lot.

"If the other party is a bad guy, I will definitely protect Sonoko!" Xiaolan's eyes became firm.

Conan on the side rolled his eyes and said, "Don't I need to be protected?"

"Okay, Conan, let's go!" Xiaolan lowered her arms, held Conan's hand, and then quickly walked across the wooden bridge and came to the door of the villa.

"Exhortation~"

Xiaolan pressed the doorbell.

Less than half a minute.

The garden appeared before them.

"Xiao Lan, you're finally here! What took you so long? I told my driver to pick you up, but you insisted on coming by yourself."

Yuanzi opened the door and greeted Xiaolan warmly when she saw her.

But when her eyes fell on the short guy next to Xiaolan, the corners of her mouth almost turned up to the sky.

"Why did you bring this brat with you?" Sonoko yelled, "Xiaolan, I asked you to come here to find happiness this time. If you bring him with you, how can any handsome guy be interested in you?"

"Ah?"

Xiaolan and Conan were both stunned when they heard Sonoko's careless words.

"Looking for happiness? Yuanzi, what do you mean? Didn't you ask me to come here for vacation?" Xiaolan's eyes became small and she stared at Yuanzi blankly.

"It's a vacation, yes, but that's just by the way! The most important thing is that I asked you to come and see the handsome guy!" Yuanzi half covered her mouth and laughed twice.

Conan: (? Yi?)!
