I am in Mihua, and the ladies all like me

"The 20-degree uphill road ahead is smooth, followed by five consecutive hairpin turns with a large arc..."

"Wake up, it's going downhill ahead."

Serabelle's helpless voice came from the driver's seat.

"As for the five consecutive hairpin turns you mentioned, Sister Yukiko, we already passed them half a minute ago."

"...Eh? Is that so?"

Yukiko, who was sitting cross-legged on the chair, was slightly stunned. She put down the letter in her hand and looked around.

However, all that came into view was the scenery rapidly passing by outside the car window. As for the road behind, it had long been blocked by the turning mountain.

It's over. I don't know where it is anymore...

It was more like a long sigh of relief than a sigh of relief. Yukiko simply stuffed the piece of letter in her hand with the detailed route to the Dusk Villa written on the back into the car drawer, then lay down in the seat, holding her head with her hands and groaning.

"Mo~ I wanted to pretend to be a navigator, but how long will it take us to get there at this speed? We've been circling the mountains for almost two hours, and we haven't seen any so-called annex."

"Probably... about another hour."

Serabel did some mental calculations. He had written down the routes written on the letter paper before setting out, so he knew exactly how much distance was left.

As for the idea of ​​going around in the mountains all the time, that was not possible. After all, this was the only road they had driven on all the way here, without even a fork in the road.

"But then again, there's absolutely no need for you to come, Yukiko-san."

What Serabelle actually wanted to say was "There's no need to force yourself to come with him."

But Yukiko obviously didn't think that way. Before he could finish his words, her eyebrows raised.

"Why, have you learned to dislike your sister?"

"That was not what I meant……"

Serabelle held her forehead slightly inwardly and explained patiently.

"What I mean is, Sister Yukiko, you think the car ride is too long and boring, so there's no need for you to come along. You can just stay at home and come here by yourself."

"But it's boring at home." The older girl shrugged indifferently. "Although riding in the car is boring, it's okay if Bell is driving. Besides, didn't the letter say that family members can be brought along?"

What do you mean I won't be bored when I drive? Does this have anything to do with the person driving?

Serabelle thought as she controlled the steering wheel with one hand.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed that Yukiko in the passenger seat next to him did something rather mysterious.

It was seen that this older girl not only did not put on the shoes she had taken off earlier, but also took off her socks as well.

Actually, it’s nothing. There’s basically no smell anyway, so just go barefoot.

But Serabelle soon discovered that the two bare feet had crossed the barrier between the driver and the co-pilot and were both placed on his legs. And judging by the dishonest movement, it seemed that they were going to...

“Hey, I’m still driving???”

"Then please slow down~"

Yukiko laughed and used her feet together, flexibly pinched the zipper with her toes and opened it, then reached in unscrupulously.

This exploration extended the journey, which was originally only an hour, by another twenty minutes.

……

An hour later, the black Audi stopped on the mountain road.

Yukiko was wiping her toes carefully with a napkin in the passenger seat. When she noticed the car stopped, she looked up curiously.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"look……"

Serabelle raised her chin forward.

The sky in the mountains gets dark earlier than in the city. Although it is only five o'clock in the evening in Tokyo, the twilight in the Gunma Mountains is already quite thick. The beautiful natural forests on both sides of the road during the day are just pitch black at night, accompanied by the rustling sound of swaying tree shadows, like a group of demons with bared fangs and claws.

The only thing that could be seen clearly was the area directly in front of the car illuminated by the headlights. It was a wooden bridge in the mountains. It was not very long, perhaps only about six or seven meters, built between two cliffs. The workmanship seemed to be quite solid, and it didn't look like it would fall apart if you walked on it.

"This bridge gives me the feeling of the only escape route that must be burned down in a horror movie with a snowstorm in the mountain mansion..." Yukiko made an accurate comment.

It's no wonder she said that. After all, judging from the content of the only piece of letter paper that can be used as a navigation, this bridge seems to be the only way to the Dusk Villa.

"If we drive here, we can reach our destination in five minutes at most, but if we walk, it will take at most twenty minutes." Serabelle turned around to ask for advice, "How about we park the car here and walk directly from here?"

"Well, my sister agrees with this."

Yukiko nodded without hesitation to express her agreement.

So the two of them got off the car and started walking towards the Hun Huang Villa.

It was estimated to take twenty minutes, but in the end, Serabelle and Yukiko only took ten minutes to get there.

The reason was that when we were halfway there, it started to rain in the mountains, and it looked like it was getting heavier.

So the two had to give up walking slowly and run instead.

However, even so, I was still slightly rained on when I arrived.

"Well, we're finally here."

At the entrance of the annex, Serabelle held Yukiko, who was running out of breath, with one hand, and took the lead to walk up the steps in the rain to the lighted gate, then reached out and pressed the doorbell.

ding dong~

The crisp and pleasant doorbell rang, and Serabelle waited patiently while looking around.

This Dusk Villa is a standard European-style mansion. There are several cars parked side by side in the garden in front of the door, ranging from Ferrari to Bentley, and even Alfa Romeo... and there is also an ordinary car that looks like it was rented from a car rental company.

It looks like quite a few people have already arrived?

Click.

Just as Serabelle was thinking this, the sound of the door hinge turning was heard.

The next second, as the main door of the entrance opened a crack, a familiar little face poked out from inside.

It turned out to be Conan. He looked up and was quite surprised to see Serabelle outside the door.

"Huh? Brother Sera?"

But before he could say anything more, Conan's eyes were subconsciously drawn to an older girl next to Serabell, who was still holding her hand tightly.

"Wait, Mom!?"

Chapter 260 Yukiko: Divorce! Must Divorce!

Mother and son met in this remote place... let's just call it the remote place.

What’s more important is that she was caught by her own son holding hands with another man. If it were any other mother, this would be a major mistake that would make her panic.

But Yukiko adjusted her state by just blinking her eyes, strode forward, reached her hands into the door, picked Conan out and lifted him up high.

"Ala, isn't this our Ke-chan? Come here and let your sister hug you~"

"Oh, Auntie, please let me go!"

Conan almost blurted out "Mom" subconsciously while struggling in a panic, but fortunately he reacted and stopped himself in time.

But sometimes, as the saying goes, it is better not to accept it.

When Yukiko heard the boy address her, her eyebrows raised and her tone instantly turned malicious.

"Ke-chan, what did you just call me? I didn't hear it clearly. What? Say it again?"

Full of threats.

Conan had a strong desire to survive, and quickly explained: "Not old, not old, I'm an aunt."

"Auntie?"

Yukiko read it again with emphasis.

Conan's forehead was slightly covered with cold sweat. Ever since they were young, Yukiko had always liked to force him to call her "sister", on the grounds that calling her "mom" would make her sound old.

But calling your own mother "sister" is too weird!

But there is also a saying that a good man never suffers a loss in front of him...

Just when Conan was in a dilemma, at the critical moment, the slightly impatient voice of Kogoro Mouri came from inside the door.

"What are you doing, you little brat? Who are you yelling at the door? "

As he spoke, his voice came closer and closer. When he opened the door, he saw Serabel standing at the door with an innocent look on her face, and Yukiko who was holding Conan and torturing him severely.

"Yes... Yukiko-san? And you, kid, why are you here too?" Kogoro Mouri was stunned.

"Why else? Of course it's because I received the invitation letter."

Serabelle raised the letter in her hand without changing her expression.

"What? Even you received it?" Kogoro Mouri seemed a little unbelievable.

"After all, Brother Sera is also a detective, so he was chosen by the organizer."

Conan helped speak and then turned to Yukiko.

"But old... uh, why is Aunt Yukiko here too?"

Aunt? Aunt!

Once again touched by this name, Yukiko gave her son a sidelong look that said "I'll deal with you later", and then immediately returned to her smiling face.

"Well, I was just too bored staying at home, and I happened to know that Bell was coming here, so I thought I had nothing to do anyway, so I followed him here."

"That's it..."

Kogoro Maori nodded blankly.

After all, they are old classmates from high school, and he is quite familiar with Yukiko's character. It is indeed something she would do.

At this moment, Yukiko suddenly let out a soft "hmm", and she leaned over and glanced back and forth behind Kogoro Mouri.

"Oh? Did Maori-san only bring Conan this time? I remember the letter said that you can bring one or two family members. Didn't Eri come with you?"

"Uh uh Lan came here with us."

Kisaki Eri has always been a sensitive topic for Mouri Kogoro. When he heard the older girl in front of him mention this, Mouri Kogoro's expression suddenly became a little unnatural.

"As for Yingli... humph, she is probably still busy being the queen of the legal world. Well, well, let's not talk about this anymore. Everyone else is here, so come in too."

"Sorry to bother you then~"

Yukiko greeted with a smile as if she was visiting someone's home, and walked in with Conan still in her arms.

Conan took a sneak peek at Kogoro Mouri who was walking away, and had no choice but to give up struggling and sighed to his mother in compromise.

"Speaking of which, Mom, it seems like you've been back to Japan for quite a while. When do you plan to return to the United States?"

"Hmm? Shin-chan, your question is weird. I'm doing fine in Japan, why should I go back to America?"

Yukiko still had a smiling face.

Conan was speechless when he saw her like this: "But, but mom, haven't you always been worried that dad will have an affair outside? You can't go back for such a long time, what if dad really..."

"Then let him have his affairs. I will stay in Japan and never go back. I will divorce him! Divorce, divorce! I must divorce!"

Yukiko's tone was decisive and rhythmic, as if she was shouting some mobilization slogan.

Conan was shocked by his own mother's words: "No...Mom, are you serious?"

"Do you think I'm joking?" the older girl asked back.

Well, if you must say, they don't look alike.

However, Conan has become accustomed to his weird mother's personality of having a different idea every day over the years.

Given Yukiko's personality, she might swear today that she would never eat before going to bed, but start eating again the next day.

Forget it, just let her be for now. I guess she will change her mind in ten days or half a month.

"Okay, let's go upstairs and see who the other detectives are~"

Soon, Serabelle and Yukiko, who was holding Conan, arrived at the second floor of the annex.
