I am in Mihua, and the ladies all like me

Materials science, once again, no longer exists.

However, Serabelle was too lazy to worry about these things, so she simply gave up thinking and gave Conan a thumbs up.

"Okay, now that the transportation problem has been solved, the rest is up to you."

"what?"

This time it was Conan's turn to be stunned.

"I thought you were going with me..."

"How can we do that? Your skateboard can only hold one person." Serabelle shrugged.

"That--"

Conan hesitated for a moment and subconsciously glanced at the other snowmobiles in the shed.

But before he could open his mouth, Serabelle saw the air blade and spun around to reject him.

"Stop your dangerous thoughts, that's stealing."

Uh……

Conan blinked, caught off guard by the series of rebuttals.

"It's just... a temporary loan."

"Using it without consent is stealing, thank you." Serabelle raised her middle finger. "Those three kids may be able to get away with it by saying they are under the age of criminal responsibility, but I am already over sixteen. If I do the same as them, I will be held legally responsible."

The law may sound a bit too high-sounding when it comes from Serabel, but for him, breaking the law depends on who it is for.

For example, if it was for Shinjun, then it wouldn't matter even if it meant bombing the U.S. military base Celine in Okinawa.

But if it is to find little Bitazaiji who has been staying up late at night and running around, then forget it.

"But if they flip the snowmobile over, it would be impossible for a few kids to do it..."

Conan hesitated to speak, and after a little thought he made what he thought was the maximum concession.

"How about this, I'll drive the snowmobile and you use the skateboard?"

But Serabelle's answer was equally impeccable.

“Sorry, I don’t know how to skateboard.”

"..."

Now that we have come to this, there is no point in talking further.

"Okay then, I'll go by myself." Conan nodded helplessly, "If I have any news, I'll call Uncle Maori and the others directly."

"it is good."

This was exactly the answer Serabelle wanted.

To be honest, the ability of these three little ones to cause trouble is really annoying. If it were him, he probably wouldn't bother to say anything even if he found the person.

But if it was Kogoro Mori, it would be completely different. He would definitely hit everyone on the head with his big iron fist without any need to fight for it.

Although even with such a high probability there is no way to guarantee that they will not commit the same offense again in the future, but at least they should be much quieter in the near future.

Having said this, the two went their separate ways.

Conan rode his skateboard and followed the tracks on the snow to look for the three little ones, while Serabelle returned the same way.

In this way, half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

When Serabelle returned to her hotel room, the room was still filled with a faint scent of water and shower gel.

Wearing only a bra vest and briefs, Masumi Sera sat cross-legged on the bed with a cell phone in her hand. When she saw Serabel coming back, she immediately corrected her indecent sitting posture, put her legs together, stretched them straight to her toes, and swung them up and down.

"Brother, what took you so long to come back? Did something happen?"

"Well, almost."

Serabelle briefly recounted the story of three little ones escaping on a snowy night, stealing snowmobiles and racing on the mountain.

Finally, he cast his gaze towards the tiger-fanged girl's still wet hair, and turned his face slightly away in confusion.

"Majun, did you just finish your shower?"

"Uh...well, yeah."

When this topic was mentioned, Sera Masumi suddenly became inexplicably flustered.

In fact, she takes a shower very quickly at home. Even if she washes her hair, she can usually finish within fifteen minutes.

But unfortunately, when she was "showering", she was frightened by the noise made by Serabelle from the door. It took her a lot of effort to calm down and get back into the state. After that, her fingers were sore and her brother hadn't come back yet, so she was forced to end it hastily.

Otherwise, according to her original plan, the bathroom and bedroom were only separated by a wall, and the sound insulation performance would not be very good.

In other words, she just had to make a little noise inside and pretend that Serabelle outside had accidentally heard it, and the rest of the process would go smoothly.

For example, from the bathroom battle to the entrance hall, and then to the entrance hall battle and more entrance hall battles, and so on.

Unfortunately……

So naughty kids are so abominable!

Chapter 473: You are unforgivable.

Conan was gone for nearly an hour, and when he returned with his men, it was almost eight o'clock in the evening.

They were brought back by a van that happened to be passing by.

It seemed that Conan called Mouri Kogoro and Dr. Agasa on his way back when they found that the children were missing. When they returned to Kitanosawa Village by car, Mouri Kogoro, whose anger bar was fully charged, stood at the door of the hotel with his fist raised, scolding loudly with veins bulging on his forehead.

"You little brats! You ran out in the middle of the night without saying a word. Do you know that you will make others worry? And you secretly drove a snowmobile at the ski resort. Have you ever considered the safety issues?"

"I'm sorry..."*3

Seeing the three children apologized seriously with their heads down, Dr. Agasa came over with a smile to smooth things over.

"Well~ Brother Maori, there's no need to be so angry. They are already seriously reflecting on themselves."

"Humph!"

Knowing that it was inappropriate to continue scolding in front of the hotel so late at night, Kogoro Mori snorted heavily and gave up.

Serabell came downstairs after hearing the scolding voices at the door of the hotel, but he did not follow them out. He waited in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel until the door opened and the three naughty kids were led in by Mouri Kogoro. Then he stepped forward and raised his eyebrows at Conan.

"It seems that the process went smoothly?"

"well enough."

Conan's mouth twitched and he grinned, as if he had a toothache when he thought about what he had just experienced.

"You may not believe this, but when I found him, that idiot Yuan Tai had already driven his snowmobile almost halfway up the mountain, and the car had flipped over on the side of the road."

"Oh haha."

"But they did have a plan. In order to hold out until I arrived, they even built an igloo to keep warm. That way they didn't freeze to death."

"It seems I'll dare to do it next time."

Serabelle nodded slightly.

At least based on his current understanding of these three naughty kids, let alone being forced to build an igloo to keep warm after their car overturned on the roadside, or even catching a cold and having a high fever that lasted for three days, it is unlikely that they would learn their lesson permanently.

"Then they should..."

Conan wanted to say that it shouldn't be the case, but after thinking about it, it seemed that it might not be completely impossible, so he stopped talking and changed the subject.

He pointed at a tall young man who had just come in from the door behind him. It was this man that Kogoro Mori and Dr. Agasa had thanked outside the door.

"That's Mr. Muto. He's the one who brought us back. He usually lives in a house on the mountain behind Kitanosawa Village. The owls in the hotel's souvenir shop were all made by him. It seems he had an appointment to meet someone here today, so he passed by there so late at night."

After all, he was mentioning someone else's private information, so Conan was embarrassed to say it too loudly and it didn't attract Muto's attention.

After entering the door, he went straight to the public rest area in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, and it seemed that his purpose was very clear.

Conan's gaze also turned subconsciously, and he was stunned when he saw the people sitting in the public rest area.

There were two men and two women.

One of the men was wearing glasses and looked quite gentle and handsome, but the curve at the corner of his mouth that occasionally raised gave people a feeling of cunning.

The other one next to him looked like he had just been released from prison. He had a dark complexion and was unkempt, with short black hair sticking up into the sky like messy branches, and he didn't look groomed at all.

One of the girls on the side had a high brown ponytail and wore glasses. She looked quite heroic. At first glance, she looked like a young Eri Kisaki.

As for the last girl, she had short black hair that just covered her earlobes to her chin. She had a round face, which gave her a very gentle look.

Serabelle noticed the change in Conan's expression and couldn't help but feel curious.

"Do you know them?"

"Well, I can't say we know each other..."

Conan continued in a low voice.

"Remember I didn't go with you guys during the day? I went to the visitor center here to investigate the reservoir, and I met the two men sitting there. They seemed to be paying attention to the reservoir, especially the one wearing glasses, who was carrying a stun gun."

"Then the young woman with short hair you saw is a native of Kitanosawa Village. Her name is Tachihara Fuyumi."

“And there’s another one I don’t recognize.”

"Oh……"

Serabelle nodded in amazement.

Although one day is not a short time, being able to understand the information of so many people is already quite efficient.

Of course, this has nothing to do with him.

As Serabelle was about to yawn and go back upstairs, the dark-skinned man with messy hair in the public lounge began to get restless.

He glanced several times at Kogoro Mori, who was leading Genta and the other two to the stairs with a stern face, and finally couldn't help but stood up.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Maori Kogoro?"

"……Um?"

Unexpectedly, someone called his name suddenly. Kogoro Mori, who had a tense face in the last second, was stunned for a moment. He subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of the voice and pointed at himself stupidly.

"Call me?"

It was possible to make a mistake when seeing the side profile just now, but now that it’s facing forward, I can see it clearly.

Especially when his eyes fell on the iconic mustache on Kogoro Mori's face, the dark-skinned man's expression obviously froze, but he quickly put on a smile again.

"Ah, I didn't expect that I could actually meet a famous person like you in such a remote place. Are you here to handle a case this time?"

"Investigating a case? No no no!"

Kogoro Maori waved his hand.

"We just happened to be here during the village building celebration and snow festival."

“No one would bring a child to work.”

Dr. Agasa also joined in with a smile.

“Yes, that’s right.”

When he heard that they were just here for tourism, the dark-skinned man's expression instantly relaxed.

In fact, two or three words of greeting would be enough, after all, no one knew each other.

But at this moment Xiaolan interrupted.

"Come to think of it, Mr. Mutou also said that he had an appointment here. Now it seems that the person Mr. Mutou is meeting is you. Could it be that you are classmates?"

“Well, that’s not wrong.”

The person who answered was a cunning young man with a gentle appearance. He smiled when he heard Xiaolan's words.

"We are indeed classmates, and we are all former residents of Kitanosawa Village. At that time, there were only five of us in the entire grade of the elementary school in Kitanosawa Village... By the way, this is the first time in eight years that we are all here together."

"Once every eight years, that must be a very touching reunion, right?"

Xiaolan clasped her hands in front of her chest, looking quite longing.

But she turned and tilted her head again, somewhat puzzled.

"But why did it take eight years to reunite?"
