However, Yamao Keisuke originally thought that he would only be sentenced to less than two years, but he did not expect that due to the various charges, he was not released until the summer eight years later, and his hometown was turned into a reservoir.

So Yamao Keisuke decided to return to his hometown during the Snow Festival to dig out the buried treasure.

However, this secret was somehow known to Hikawa Shogo. In order to prevent the secret from being leaked, Yamao Keisuke had to pretend to cooperate with Hikawa Shogo, and then secretly tried to kill him.

But why do we have to take advantage of the Snow Festival?

For no reason, Kudo Shinichi's heart trembled, and he felt as if he had missed something very important.

You should know that it snows all year round in Beize Village, and the weather is almost the same no matter when you come. Even the temperature does not change much throughout the year. It is always freezing cold. There is no such thing as low water temperature in winter and high water temperature in summer.

The Snow Festival is an important festival for the people of Kitazawa Village, just like the Chinese New Year.

Wait, Chinese New Year?

As if a sudden inspiration came to his mind, Kudo Shinichi, who was standing in the room thinking quietly, subconsciously looked out the window.

Just outside the window, in front of the hotel door below, two staff members wearing reservoir dam work uniforms were walking into the restaurant, talking and laughing.

This... Could it be!!!

Kudo Shinichi's expression also changed.

The second update is loading~~~

Ah, it’s so desolate typing at home on Valentine’s Day.

Chapter 466 Why are there eight eggs again?

"Well, we'll be on our way then. Thank you for your assistance, Detective Maori, and have a pleasant journey."

Downstairs in the hotel, the Niigata Prefectural Police, who had finished taking statements, were shaking hands and saying goodbye to Kogoro Mori one by one.

As the saying goes, a person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. Even important departments like the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department often have to rely on "sleeping detectives" to solve some complicated cases. For small policemen like them in remote mountainous areas to be able to meet such a big man once is already a great event that they can brag about for three years.

What’s more, it is a collaborative case.

The scene was similar to an offline celebrity fan meeting.

This greatly satisfied Kogoro Mori's vanity.

But at this moment——

"Wait a moment!"

Kudo Shinichi shouted as he rushed down the stairs from the second floor. He ignored the strange looks from other tourists in the lobby, rushed straight out of the hotel and came to the door, grabbing several Niigata Prefecture police officers who were about to leave.

“You, you are…” The Niigata Prefecture police officer whose clothes were pulled widened his eyes slightly.

"Are you the high school detective - Kudo Shinichi?!"

The county policeman was probably a little unsure about his words because he didn't expect to meet two such famous people in one day.

"What high school detective? He's obviously just a student." Kogoro Mouri, whose limelight was overshadowed, snorted in dissatisfaction.

"Don't worry about that!" Kudo Shinichi's tone was anxious as if his eyebrows were on fire.

"Where is Mr. Yamao? Is he still there?"

"Are you talking about Mr. Yamao Keisuke?"

The county policeman was a smart man. When he saw this scene, he didn't bother asking for autographs or shaking hands and just answered honestly.

"Mr. Yamao left after taking the statement, about ten minutes ago, saying he had something urgent to do."

"Really!"

Upon hearing this, Kudo Shinichi clicked his tongue and turned around to rush into the hotel, but as soon as he turned around, he was stopped by Xiaolan who just walked out. Behind him were Sonoko who was with her best friend and Qin Wuque who was looking up at the sky with nothing to do.

"Shinichi... where are you going?" Xiaolan asked worriedly.

Facing his childhood sweetheart and girlfriend, Kudo Shinichi certainly couldn't treat her with the same attitude he had before towards the county police, so he had to slow down his tone and speak quickly.

"Well, although it's just a guess, according to my prediction, something big might happen at the dam soon. I have to go take a look now. Don't run around, and remember to wait for my call!"

After saying this, he raised his foot and continued to walk forward.

At the moment when the figures crossed each other, a voice floated over from the side.

"Be careful, you might die~"

Qin Wuque folded his hands across his chest and looked lazily at the sky which was once again covered with dark clouds.

"The other party might have weapons in their hands. Are you sure you want to go?"

"Of course!" Kudo Shinichi said firmly.

"Oh, okay, fine, then go ahead, good luck." Qin Wuque gave in without any warning.

"……what?"

Kudo Shinichi was once again dumbfounded by this guy's sudden turn of events.

"What's wrong?" Qin Wuque looked at him puzzledly.

"No, it's nothing."

Kudo Shinichi shook his head awkwardly.

"I thought you wanted to come with me."

"Think about it..."

Qin Wuque rolled his eyes.

"I don't like solving cases. I'm here to travel with my girlfriend, not to maintain world peace. What does this have to do with me? If you want to go, go by yourself."

"..."

Kudo Shinichi was speechless. He was silent for a moment, then picked up his feet and rushed back to the hotel.

When he came out, he had a nuclear skateboard specially made by Dr. Agasa in his hand.

The high school detective got on his skateboard and rode the snow waves towards the dam.

Only the childhood sweetheart was left standing behind with a worried look on his face.

"Is Shinichi... really okay?" Xiaolan murmured to herself.

"Who cares!" Maori Kogoro yelled in dissatisfaction, "This brat has always been like this. As long as there is a case, he will ignore everything. He is really ignorant!"

Although he said this, his eyes, half closed, unconsciously glanced in the direction where Kudo Shinichi left.

"That's right!" Yuanzi also echoed.

She hugged Qin Wuque's arm and smiled.

"Sure enough, my brother Qin is the best~"

"Uh……"

Regarding her close friend's cheek-to-cheek display of affection, Xiaolan said that she was very full.

……

In order to wait for the call from a high school detective, everyone had to go back to the hotel restaurant and sit down.

Just after a cup of coffee, the bell rang.

It’s Xiaolan’s cell phone.

She took out her cell phone and answered the call. Kudo Shinichi's rapid and heavy breathing came from the phone, and his speaking speed was quite fast.

"Lan, you guys are still in the hotel right now, right?"

"Ah... um."

Xiaolan nodded honestly.

"My father, Sonoko, and Mr. Qin are all here. Dr. Agasa and Ayumi should be at the entrance of the hotel. They are playing in the snow..."

"enough."

Kudo Shinichi interrupted hastily.

"There is only one thing you need to do now, make everyone run away!"

"Eh?"

"I'm at the dam now. Someone has planted a bomb on the dam. I'm taking pictures now and will send them to you right away..."

Bah——!

Without any warning, a loud electrical sound exploded in the receiver of the mobile phone.

Xiaolan was startled. When she looked down, the call had been hung up and there was a "no signal" display in the upper left corner of the phone.

"how so……"

"Ran, what happened?" Seeing his daughter's shocked look, Kogoro Mouri asked quickly.

"It was Shinichi... Shinichi told me that someone has planted a bomb on the dam, and asked us to quickly organize the people to flee, in case the bomb explodes and the dam collapses..."

Before he finished his words, the two dam workers that Kudo Shinichi had seen upstairs in the hotel happened to pass by.

The two of them had a distinct scent of coffee on them, and one of them stopped immediately upon hearing Xiaolan's words, raised his eyebrows and lowered his voice to warn.

"Hey! What are you talking about, little girl? Dam bomb? You can't say that. It will cause panic among other tourists!"

"I'm not talking nonsense! My friend is at the dam right now!" Xiaolan argued.

"Your friend?" The staff was so angry that they laughed, "My colleague is also at the dam now. For something like this, I just need to make a phone call..."

He stopped talking midway.

The staff member looked at the phone in his hand, and three big words appeared in the upper left corner.

No signal.

Maori Kogoro also stood up and said seriously: "I believe my daughter will not talk nonsense."

"You, you are... Mr. Kogoro Mori?" Another dam worker who was traveling with him recognized him.

"What? It's the famous detective Mouri Kogoro?!" The dam worker who was still staring at the cell phone with no signal suddenly came to his senses.

He realized his previous mistake, but immediately felt troubled again.

"The Snow Festival is an important revenue-generating period for Kitazawa Village. Without solid evidence, we cannot make a decision on our own. If the intelligence is wrong, the responsibility is not something that an individual can bear..."

"Assholes! Human lives are at stake and you're still thinking about that little bit of revenue!" Kogoro Mori was furious.

At this time, Qin Wuque stood up from his seat, stretched his body, and said slowly.

"It's a simple matter, so why not just see it for yourself? Why don't we all go over and see it for ourselves?"

¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥

Rest~

Chapter 467 Seven Steps Away, the Gun is Fast

The dam is quite a distance away from Beize Village. If you walk normally, it will take at least half an hour to get there.

Fortunately, the two staff members who came down from the dam to Bei Ze Village to drink tea came in a work van.

With the right means of transportation, the time spent on the road can be greatly shortened.

After a brief discussion, Qin Wuque, Maori Kogoro, Xiaolan, Sonoko and two staff members, a total of six people, got on the van and headed towards the dam in a mighty manner.

The snow-covered mountain roads are difficult and dangerous to drive on, so the dam workers responsible for driving have to drive slowly and carefully, and increase the speed as much as possible while ensuring safe driving.

The van drove on the bumpy mountain road for more than ten minutes. Outside the car window, the outline of the dam in the distance gradually emerged from the mountains.

In that scene, there really was a large stone tablet blocking the smell of the protostomes.
