Ms. Moriarty wants to save Beika Town today too.

Camera...Did Yuanzi capture something?

At the time, Sonoko was taking pictures of a couple, and if the man appeared as the victim's companion, there is a possibility that he was photographed.

However, before she could open her mouth to mention this matter, Conan called Sonoko to stop and asked directly about the camera, asking if it had been stolen.

Ai had checked the luggage at the time, so she interrupted and replied, "The camera is still there, but the lid has been opened. There is no film inside."

"Was it stolen?" Conan's face darkened.

Sonoko shook her head. "No, I didn't put the negatives in there at the beginning. Because all 36 negatives were used up, I wanted to look at them while everyone was having dinner, so I took them to be developed during the day." As she spoke, she took out a stack of photos from the pocket of her shorts. "Look, they have all been developed."

In other words, the other party did not steal the film. Winnett's expression became more serious. "So--"

She wanted to ask Sonoko to check if there were any people who looked like victims in the photos of couples. However, Dokkyu got there first. He lifted his buttocks and showed great interest. "Let me take a look... It shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Sonoko handed her the photo. "Okay!"

Xiaolan immediately couldn't sit still. She slammed the table and stood up quickly, her face flushed and her eyes wide open, as if her dark history was being publicized in public. She wanted to reach out to grab the photos, but Sonoko's hand handed them over faster. Winette and Xiaoai both understood her thoughts, because Sonoko took a lot of photos that were not very decent. From the perspective of the viewer, Xiaolan in the photo seemed to be taking some sexy photos, or the beach big sister version. It was natural for the person involved to be nervous.

However, although Yuanzi was sometimes mean, she knew her limits. She leaned close to Xiaolan's ear and whispered to her that the sexy photos had been taken out and kept separately. Only then did Xiaolan breathe a sigh of relief.

"I'm really impressed by you. You scared me to death." Xiaolan said resentfully, the blush on her face had not yet faded.

Xiao Ai saw that Winnet seemed to be very interested in the photo, and her eyes drooped a little. She sneaked closer to her and asked, "Are you interested in the photo of her adjusting her swimsuit?"

Of course not! Winnet shook her head slightly. Xiao Ai actually misunderstood her like this. Was she the kind of person who would put sexy swimsuit magazines under the bed? Winnet was very depressed. But she couldn't explain this specifically, because women are very suspicious, and the more they deny, the more misunderstandings they will cause.

"The swimsuit you're wearing is too childish, you won't be able to take any good photos," she added.

She naturally didn't think Winette would want to see Xiaolan's swimsuit photos, but she subconsciously wanted to choke her. Who told her that her attention was all on Xiaolan and Yuanzi at the time? After becoming a child, she was pitiful and poor, and could only match the sand castle and serve as a background. And her girlfriend was also very unromantic, and was as far away from being sexy as the starting point to the end point.

"Well, when we're just two people...it's okay." She replied softly.

Hearing this, Xiao Ai grinned and immediately covered her lips with her hands.

Meanwhile, Daoxie, who was viewing the photos, sighed, "All these people are your friends... Why did you take photos of so many couples?"

Xiaolan took the opportunity to retaliate against Sonoko's teasing. Sonoko's combination of punches made her a little unhappy. "That's because Sonoko was in a bad mood before she met Mr. Dokkyo. In order to calm herself down, she kept taking secret photos of other couples."

"Xiaolan!"

Offensive and defensive reversal.

Winnett was not as close to the scene as Conan. He sat next to Daoxie and could see the contents of the photo in his hand by leaning over. But through Conan's troubled look, Winnett could still guess that the photo did not show the victim from last night.

Now, the previous assumption is no longer feasible.

Moreover, she remembered that when they passed the victim's place, they were already far away from the fireworks display venue. At that time, Sonoko had long since stopped taking secret photos of couples, and her camera was in a storage bag, sometimes even shaking it slightly, so she didn't take any photos at all.

Based on this premise, Winnett didn't think the criminal would be so neurotic as to think that Yuanzi had filmed something. If they took such a big risk just because of a little doubt, then all the murderers in the world would aim to destroy the police - too unwise and ridiculous.

I don't understand.

Winette breathed a sigh of relief. If it were her, she wouldn't have to make excuses, she would just do it. If the suspect was a killer who simply targeted the girl with brown hair, things would be much simpler. But this was unreasonable, after all, it was a good opportunity to attack, he had already controlled Sonoko, and he still had a knife in his hand.

"What, are you still thinking about what happened just now?" Xiao Ai saw that Winnett looked strange and whispered to her.

She is an out-and-out bad person, and there is no need for her to learn detective skills... It's just that the people around her are threatened, which is a slap in her face. Unless she crushes this guy's limbs with her own hands, she can't get rid of her depression. If she doesn't pursue it, if the person who is threatened becomes Ai one day, she will go crazy. Well, she does care, but she is not to the point of swearing to never give up. Because they are leaving tomorrow, the other party can't chase him to Tokyo.

"Are you planning to go back tomorrow during the day?" Daoxie asked.

This was mentioned when Yuanzi was chatting with him.

Yuanzi hummed softly.

"How about we go to the cursed restaurant in the morning?" he suggested again.

Xiaolan was still shocked as usual. But Winette noticed something was wrong. He mentioned this restaurant again and again, so there must be some purpose. Usually he prepared some surprise or program, but there was another possibility - from her suspicion - he had some bad intentions.

It is difficult for young girls to realize the deliberate nature of such invitations. If a person repeatedly invites someone to a date, there must be some preparation. In fact, they themselves are well aware of this, dressing up carefully for each invitation and simulating the process in their minds. However, whether this preparation is good or bad, and what purpose it contains, is unknown.

"Yeah."

No, I am totally in love, Winette thought.

"If it were daytime, I wouldn't be afraid." Yuanzi became even more interested.

Xiaolan reminded her not to bring a camera. After all, in the ghost stories told by the Taoist Association, cameras are a standard for triggering supernatural events.

By the way, that person actually followed him to the hotel. Winette discovered the person who was following Daoxie while dining, but with this intensity of following, Daoxie himself might have discovered it. Anyway, Edogawa had already noticed this.

After a quick comparison, she didn't think that the stalker had any ideas about Sonoko - he and Dokkyu appeared at exactly the same time.

After the meal, Daoxie behaved like a gentleman, chatted for a while and then left.

"Did you notice?" Xiao Ai said sarcastically. "The guy who was spying on us has appeared again."

Winnet nodded slightly, and they were on their way back to the room. "His target is the Daoxie," she said nonchalantly.

Ai was skeptical. "Maybe he has deceived too many girls. Maybe he is just investigating the extent of this man's fickleness like that confused detective. But did you notice? His arm."

"The arms are quite hairy. That's quite rare, but the body shape doesn't match."

Winnett didn't arrive in time, but she could still tell the other person's general size. The man who followed the Taoist Association was too strong, even fat. With that size, it would be difficult to jump out of the window and escape. If the criminal was really that physique, she would have chased him. Winnett was sure that the intruder was quite agile.

"Body size? Did you see him?" Xiao Ai rubbed her eyes, feeling a little sleepy after the meal. "That shouldn't be possible, you didn't even notice he was holding a knife. In other words, you relied on your hearing." She analyzed it briefly.

Winette did not deny it. She told her about her doubts about Daoxie. "He is too obsessed with that restaurant."

"You mean--" She frowned, "He is the criminal?"

"No, it's more likely that he has prepared some tricks to please girls. But I'm good at assuming bad intentions of others."

"Oh, malicious intent. Does it include everyone, or are there exceptions? Let me guess - the exception is the woman codenamed 'Shirley', right?"

"How amazing! Do you have the ability to read minds?"

"How exaggerated. Where is your acting skills that you are so proud of?"

"Using acting to interpret the facts is putting the cart before the horse."

"Nonsense," she said, rolling her eyes. But this slightly empty compliment also made her a little happy, because it was Winnet who said it. She thought she wouldn't be so playful in front of others, probably not. "Speaking of which, I've seen the introduction of that haunted restaurant. It's in the travel brochure. What's special is that it's built on the edge of a cliff, and you can see the sea from the window."

"Then it must be very popular," said Winnett. "But no matter how popular it is, if he comes to pick us up so early in the morning, there will definitely be few customers. I don't believe it was not planned."

"Is it my illusion? You seem to have a lot of insights on picking up girls?" Xiao Ai teased her.

Winnet smiled, then put on a compassionate look and took out the cross pendant from her chest. "No," she said, "If I had a little bit of this skill, I wouldn't have to spend such a long time alone. To be precise, you need to have the mentality and desire to do this. As for me, I always feel that I am not qualified for it."

Xiao Ai stuck out her tongue. "You're only sixteen, but you make it sound like you're thirty."

It's not much different from thirty, and even older if you calculate carefully, Winette thought to herself, but it was just a thought.

"That's because you set your qualifications too high. Only I meet the requirements." Xiao Ai held her chin up and smiled. "Besides, even if you are thirty years old, you will definitely be sought after by countless people. It will be more delicious to become a woman like candied fruit. Although saying this may make you get carried away, you are indeed beautiful. Time will only make this beauty settle down."

"Uh, can I borrow your good words?" Winnet didn't know how to respond. If she was compared to food -

No.

They came to the new room. As the rain outside was getting heavier, there was naturally no other activity in the evening. The four of them changed to playing poker. After Yuanzi lost seven games in a row, this entertainment activity also came to an end.

“Why am I the only one who keeps losing!” she shouted while hugging her pillow.

There is no way. Winette subconsciously memorizes the cards played and the probability of holding a card; Ai is a master of psychological warfare; Ran is unmatched in luck; Edogawa uses his proud reasoning ability. Only Sonoko, who respects the spirit of entertainment, is left, and the result is clear at a glance.

……

422 Xiaolan's Charming Moment

Although Yuanzi said she was going to sleep, she got up again after a while. As soon as she closed her eyes, she couldn't help but think of the thief who sneaked into the house in the evening, and then she opened her eyes in fear.

Seeing her like this, Winnet still felt a little guilty. She performed a simple prayer ceremony for her, and then told her warmly that if she was afraid, she could just hold her hand and sleep.

As a childhood playmate and friend, Xiaolan naturally did not want to be left behind and lent her shoulder to Sonoko. The two of them had slept together many times, and she did not care much about this kind of thing. Sonoko looked like she was causing trouble for everyone, and on the surface she kept silent, but in fact her state did not usher in a good change.

The way to rest in this type of Japanese inn is to put them in a row. Xiao Ai didn't care whether they slept together or not, but Edogawa's presence was still like a pest, but he slept on Xiaolan's right hand side, and the other side was the wall, so it didn't matter.

As expected, Yuanzi opened her eyes several times in the evening, and her body was trembling slightly. Winette used her remaining conscience to pretend to sleep, but in fact she held Yuanzi's hand, but that was all.

“…Is it okay?”

In the morning, Sonoko looked very tired. Dark circles were already showing. She was preparing for the morning date without any energy. Although she looked like she would collapse at any time, she still made the date her first priority.

I said that we would just take a rest in the car later, so Winette didn't say much and stretched her body a little on the windowsill.

I stayed in the same position for most of the night and my body was a little stiff.

Xiao Ai knew Winnett's exercise habits, but she was not familiar with her morning gymnastics. She stood in front of the handrail with a toothbrush and watched her stretching.

Being stared at by Ai, Winnet's movements became a little stiff, but after getting used to this gaze, she no longer had any concerns and began to relax her body.

Xiao Ai left to rinse her mouth, and when she came back she whispered, "Are you planning on beating up the Daoxie later?"

Winette moved her neck and shook her head in denial. She didn't have the violent inclination to beat someone up without explanation, although her inclinations were worse, but the level of the Dao Association didn't interest her.

That said, the innkeeper was a bit unfathomable. Although she didn't have high expectations for the abilities of high school students, with the example of Xiaolan and the prejudice that Japanese works feature high school students as the protagonists, she felt that it wasn't that surprising to have one or two superhuman high school students.

Here is a typical example: Kudo Shinichi who turned into a child. Although he is not the type with strong combat ability, he frequently appears in newspapers as a high school student and is close to the Metropolitan Police Department. No matter how you look at it, it is an extremely counterintuitive result; Winette's common sense has long been shattered, and even if something extraordinary happens, it will not shock her to the point of being unable to act.

Of course, if there really were ghosts, monsters, UMA, or something like that, she would still feel troubled.

"What's wrong? You seem to be staring at me."

"Nothing. Just a little bit upset. Someone left his girlfriend alone and spent the whole night stalking another woman, holding her hand affectionately."

There was no excessive dissatisfaction in her tone, and Winnet smiled. This was also one of Ai's awkward ways of expressing gentleness and tenderness.

It's just very cute.

"Then you have to atone tenfold."

Winnett made a little joke along with the conversation.

"Sincerity...it will take at least a lifetime to atone for your sins, right?"

Miss Winnet's life was simply decided like this. But she was quite happy to hold Xiao Ai's hand to sleep every night, but it was still a part of her extravagant hope.

"Well, I don't mind."

"Be serious."

But the person who brought up this topic was obviously you, Xiao Ai.

Winnett was not a troublesome person who was very serious. She snorted slightly, hummed a little, and then straightened her back, looking like a pastor as usual, except that she was still wearing pajamas.

Her pajamas were a product of Mingmei's update, and they were a little too feminine and fashionable for her. Especially the barren part, which didn't match the silky, lace-heavy clothes. If possible, she would still like to choose a plain style with wide sleeves, or with cute animal patterns, which she didn't mind. Because she felt that this would attract Ai.

Although the former seems to be possible.

After they washed and changed their clothes, before they had breakfast, Daoxie arrived by car. He was also present when they changed rooms last night, so he came directly to the door. After seeing that Yuanzi was listless, he was very considerate to support her and ask about her well-being, without any excessive behavior. Frankly speaking, there are not many men who can do what he does.

Winnett is prejudiced against such people who show perfection, because she herself is such a person. This kind of perfection is based on a kind of deliberate disguise, and because it is not from the heart, it is not affected by thinking. Purpose is the key to people like her. In simple terms, people like her are either bastards or perverts.

Xiaolan gave them some space and stood behind them, whispering.

"Mr. Daoxie is so considerate."

"Surface work."

"Haha... Xiao Ai, you are really strict."

"Really... She thinks so too."

Xiaolan looked at Winnet, who nodded and said vaguely that he had a strong desire to show off.

Xiaolan didn't understand what the two were thinking. To her, behaving well in front of someone she likes is common sense. However, she ignored the verbal and physical threats she made to Kudo Shinichi when she was irritated. In essence, there is a limit to decent performance. In front of someone you want to get close to, decency is often exaggerated, even a little artificial and ridiculous, and at the same time, the person involved will show his true feelings.

"Miss Winnet is unexpectedly strict," she said with a smile.

They followed and got on the Dao Association's car. Winnet was still a little resistant to suddenly becoming friends with strangers, but this kind of pick-up culture has not yet been lost among young people today; according to her old thinking, generally only neighbors will take the initiative to try to establish good relationships - experience from living in a small town.

Subaru, a pretty good car.

After trying to drive, Winette also got to know a little about cars. Judging from the self-proclaimed college student of the Dokkyo, he could afford such a car, which meant that his family was quite well off. In this case, it was even more incredible that he fell in love with Sonoko. If Sonoko didn't take the initiative to reveal her identity, even she would have found it difficult to discover that her real identity was the daughter of the Suzuki Group.

To let Sonoko have a good rest, Winette sat in the passenger seat. He seemed to consider Sonoko's mental state and didn't talk much along the way. However, the destination restaurant was quite far away and it took nearly an hour and a half to drive there.

As Xiaoai said, the hotel is built on a sea cliff - a protruding piece of land.

Winnett couldn't understand this design concept at all. She felt that if an earthquake occurred, the entire restaurant and the cliff would probably fall into the sea. However, this perfect sense of protrusion and suspension can indeed attract young people who claim to be trendy.

“That’s it, what a great restaurant!”

"It's pretty good." Xiaoai agreed with Xiaolan's statement.

"But it seems that there are no guests here."
