Conan: Death is Watching Me

Chapter 77: Kogoro's Classmates Reunion [Seeking Follow-up Reading]

"The robbery case that occurred a few days ago has been successfully arrested, but the pistol that was lost at the scene has never been found..."

"The weather over the next week will be..."

"The legend of the headhunting warriors from Wushou Village..."

Benkei Hot Spring Hotel, Tochigi Prefecture.

Gao Mo wrapped himself in a towel and soaked in the not-so-big open-air bath to relieve his fatigue from the journey.

The surrounding environment is quiet, with neat stone steps surrounded by trees. It is a rare natural hot spring.

Although it was said to be a mixed bathing place for men and women, there was no one in sight from beginning to end.

That guy with the mustache...

Gao Mo glanced around the hotel and vaguely heard the mustache man's signature laugh.

And although it was called a celebration party, it was actually a university reunion, and the celebration was just a by-product - to save face in front of old classmates.

"That's amazing, Maori, you're nationally famous now!"

"No, no, I just accidentally appeared on TV, ahahaha!"

"I haven't seen you for many years. Everyone in the judo club is still the same. Maori is the only one who is doing the best."

"Zhongdao, I heard you are getting married soon?"

"Y-yes, I met my boss's daughter on a blind date six months ago... By the way, I'm a detective in Chiba Prefecture now."

"Wow!"

Gao Mo closed his eyes and let the hot water soak his neck. He was completely relaxed.

Comfortable.

He hadn't enjoyed himself so much during this period. After discovering the existence of the god of death, he was always tense even in his daily life.

I never thought about traveling to relax.

"call!"

A faint red aura of death suddenly filled the air above the hotel. Gao Mo's face stiffened as he opened his eyes.

At this time, footsteps were heard from the direction of the locker room.

"Conan, let's take a bath here. The open-air bath seems to be empty... It's been a while since I last took a hot spring bath."

"Sister Xiaolan..."

"Haha, why are you shy? Go change your clothes and I'll rub your back later."

"cough!"

Gao Mo coughed to indicate his presence.

Conan, who was originally blushing and quite resistant, froze and it took him a while to find Gao Mo who was sticking out from the heat in the corner.

"Kiroto-san?"

Xiaolan also blushed. She didn't expect to meet Gao Mo in the mixed bathing hot spring.

Fortunately, I didn't rush in naked.

"I'll be done soon," Gao Mo stood up from the bathtub wrapped in a towel, "You guys continue?"

I really envy Conan. I don’t know how many times he has taken a bath with Xiaolan, but it was only later that he finally became wary of Xiaolan.

Think about his previous life, when he was also a child, not to mention taking a bath with his sister, he would be yelled at if he passed by the bathroom door.

why?
At that time, he really didn't understand anything.

"No, no need," Xiaolan blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look at Gao Mo, "I'd better go to the room to wash, Conan..."

"Leave Conan to me," Gao Mo grinned, "I've always wanted to rub the kids' backs."

Feeling Conan's gaze, Gao Mo gave him a look that said "you're welcome".

Inside the hot spring is a public bath.

After Xiaolan left, only Gao Mo and Conan were left.

Maybe there are not many people because it is not the peak tourist season, but mixed bathing is just a cover. When it really comes to the peak season, I guess there will be a bunch of men crowded together.

Propaganda and reality are often two different things.

"Boom!"

The water scoop fell to the ground.

Conan hung his face and let Gao Mo rub his back.

The previous shyness and resistance have now turned into discomfort and depression.

"I'm doing this for your own good," Gao Mo rubbed it a few times and let Conan wash it himself, "otherwise, when Xiaolan finds out your identity, how will she beat you?"

"Where are you going?" Conan turned around and saw Gao Mo leaving.

"Go eat something. You're hungry. You're not really a child. Wash it yourself."

Hotel lobby.

When Gao Mo passed by in a loose bathrobe, Xiao Huzi was still reminiscing with his classmates and reminiscing about his college life.

The group of people are all members of the university judo club.

Two beautiful managers, three judo masters...four if you count the man with the mustache.

Since graduation, we have been scattered across various industries, and we gather at this hot spring hotel about every five years.

The one who has the best relationship with the mustache guy is Nakamichi Kazushi, a bald strong man who works as a detective in Chiba Prefecture and the captain of the university judo club.

In addition, there is a pair of married classmates - high school physical education teacher Ayashiro Yukio and housewife Ayashiro Noriko.

The remaining two are still single——

Yumi Horikoshi, a socialite who once dated a bald, muscular man and currently works at a cosmetics company.

A fat man with glasses who runs a model shop, and is said to have had a crush on the social belle Atsushi Omura.

……

Different from a mustache.

Gao Mo looked at these people with only one thought in his mind.

Who is the murderer and who is the victim...

Hopeless.

Gao Mo quickly turned his gaze away from the few people to avoid being treated as a weirdo.

Now I don’t know whether it was right or wrong to agree to let the little mustache guy come over.

People might still die if he wasn't there, but it wouldn't be as strange.

If he caused a death epidemic...

"By the way, Mori," Nakamichi Kazushi asked curiously, "Why didn't you invite your famous detective partner here today? That's Kindaichi..."

"Uh, well...he still has cases to deal with."

The man with a small mustache stammered and suddenly called Gao Mo.

"Kirouto, we're going to play table tennis later. Do you want to join us?"

"No need," Gao Mo's forehead was sweating, "I'm not good at sports..."

"Don't worry, I'll teach you. Table tennis is easier to learn than judo, and it might even help you apply what you've learned to other situations!"

The man with the mustache had no idea of ​​the seriousness of the situation and kept on encouraging him with a wicked grin.

"Our beautiful club girl is still single..."

"I don't play billiards," Horikoshi Yumi glanced at Gao Mo, waved her hand and turned to leave, "I suddenly feel very tired, I'm going back to my room to rest first."

"Yumi?"

"Don't take it too seriously. She might be in a bad mood because she's going to be laid off." The man with a mustache looked a little embarrassed. He patted Gao Mo on the back and invited everyone to go to the billiard room.

……

It was only 3 o'clock in the afternoon. After taking a shower, Conan and Xiaolan followed into the billiard room one after another.

I was surprised to see Gao Mo fighting with the man with a mustache.

The mustache guy was sweating profusely as he couldn't defeat the onslaught.

"Hey, Kido-kun, didn't you say you couldn't do it? Why…"

"I'm just not good at it."

"Is this what you call not being good at?" The man with a mustache was almost knocked unconscious by a fast ball.

I can’t get it. I can’t get it at all.

"It's just that you reacted too slowly, uncle."

Gao Mo was sweating after several rounds, and it was actually more difficult for him to fight than the man with the mustache.

The advantage is that Eagle Vision's passive also enhances dynamic vision.

Although it is not as exaggerated as when the extraordinary power is activated, it is enough to crush the mustache.

Among these people, the one with the mustache is probably the worst at playing basketball.

There is no skill involved, just eyesight and talent to suppress the mustache.

"Haha, Maori is still the same," Nakamichi Kazushi laughed, "Ever since the beginning, he always fails to win the competition, whether it's table tennis or judo."

"So that's what's going on," Xiaolan chuckled, approaching and offering a towel with a teasing look on her face. "I wonder who it was that kept saying he was invincible in college and never lost..."

"Xiao Lan, your father is indeed very powerful, but he just can't win the game."

"Who told him not to practice? He always says genius doesn't need practice."

"Let's not talk about the past."

The man with a mustache took a towel and went to the side to wipe his sweat.

"No more fighting, no more fighting. Seriously, you're such a bad judo master, why would you show off your power at a time like this?"

"Huh? Does this guy also learn judo?" Zhongdao Hezhi looked at Gao Mo curiously.

"Yeah, I wasn't very good at judo, so I went to learn kendo. I do have some talent for kendo."

Speaking of kendo, the man with a mustache turned around and asked.

"How's your kendo training going, Kido?"

“It’s pretty average.”
