After all, this restaurant is not famous, so Conan definitely won’t come here, right?

Just as Maori was thinking this -

"Welcome." Manager Yousen's greeting suddenly came from downstairs, along with a familiar voice.

"I called to make an appointment. My name is Agasa..."

"Uh!"

Maori's body suddenly froze, as if he had been hit hard, and he looked out the door with a depressed face.

No way?

It must be a coincidence, there is more than one person with the last name Agasa...

"Are you Dr. Agasa?"

Arimori greeted Dr. Agasa, "I have been waiting for you for a long time. I am the manager of the hotel..."

Maori felt as if he was pierced through the chest by an arrow. He looked downstairs in disbelief and saw the twin sisters coming down to entertain them.

In addition to Professor Agasa, Conan was also traveling with them - fortunately, the group of children did not follow.

But it's still damn good...

On the second floor of the hotel, Conan knocked on Maori's door, and when Maori opened the door, he looked surprised.

"It's really you, uncle. Why are you here too?"

"I should be the one asking questions, right?" Mao Li said unhappily, "Why are you here? No one should have invited you, right?"

Conan said helplessly: "Of course the doctor and I are here for vacation. He won a lottery ticket in the shopping street."

"The doctor's luck shouldn't be bad even once in such a matter..."

Mao Li muttered as he walked downstairs to the hotel restaurant.

I deliberately didn't go to the beach for vacation, but I still ran into Conan. What's going to happen this time? How many people are going to die?

……

The restaurant is beautifully decorated, with vases on the dining table, potted plants around it, and the rolling hills outside the window, creating a beautiful environment.

As night fell, Professor Agasa took Conan and Uncle Maori to dinner. The chef was a cute girl with bangs, Shinobu Shimono, 27 years old. She was not only beautiful, but also a good cook, especially the soup, which Maori thought was even better than the one made by Xiaolan.

Conan also agreed with Maori's opinion: "This soup tastes really good!"

"This is the first time in my life that I've had such a terrible soup!"

As soon as Conan finished speaking, a woman's complaint suddenly came from the table next to him. A fashionable woman was scolding the chef, "I say, you, can you be a chef like this?"

Chapter 106: Wings of Ikaros

Although it might be a bit impolite to think this way, Mao Li always felt that bad-tempered women like this who would provoke others right away were often the victims in cases that happened around him.

The woman's husband, a middle-aged man in a suit and a beard, also said awkwardly: "Qianhe, have you had enough..."

"Shut your mouth." The woman glared at her husband.

"Miss," Zimen Ren frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Why is this bowl of soup not to your liking? Can you please tell me clearly?"

"How dare you ask me that?" the woman snorted. "If your customer tells you that the soup doesn't taste good, you should at least admit your mistake, right?!"

Maori looked at the woman who was looking for trouble.

She has long brown hair, cool clothes, exposed shoulders and back, and a tall and perfect figure.

It seems to be a famous actress, Chizuru Bizen, who looks arrogant and domineering, completely different from what she looks like on TV.

The woman overshadowed Zi Mennin and looked quite proud. When she felt the gazes of Maori and the others turning around, she was slightly stunned, chuckled, and stood up and walked towards Maori.

"I've heard from my husband that you are the famous detective, Maori Kogoro, right? It's my honor to meet you."

The woman moved a chair and sat next to Maori. Her beautiful legs were comparable to those of Scoobing Pu Siqinglan.

"To be honest, I always look forward to your reasoning performance."

"Thank you for the compliment."

The middle-aged man also came over and said to Mao Li in a friendly manner: "I am Chizuru's husband, my surname is Shiromoto, and I am here to inspect the development project of the amusement park and to vacation."

Mao Li said politely, "Oh, you are a businessman. I am sorry for the disrespect."

Manager Yousen looked at the middle-aged man with concern and said, "So the rumors about development are true? The plateau area around here has always provided very rare butterflies and alpine plants for growth. Do you have any plans for protecting this aspect?"

The middle-aged man didn't know what to say for a moment, and he hesitated: "Regarding this issue, we will naturally discuss it carefully with the local residents..."

"Why do you care what they think?" the woman said disdainfully. "Anyway, there are always people who advocate protecting nature everywhere. What matters is making money."

"Qianhe," the middle-aged man frowned and said, "Don't talk nonsense..."

"What? Did I make you unhappy again?" The woman sneered, "If you want a divorce, I can agree to it at any time. However, can you afford my alimony in your current situation?"

"I..." The middle-aged man remained silent.

Mao Li's eyebrows twitched beside him.

"Chizuru," a reckless man ran into the restaurant from outside, anxiously threw himself in front of the woman, and begged on his knees, "My dear Chizuru, can you just quit this show this time? I beg you!"

"Boss," the woman said angrily, "Why are you still saying such nonsense? Why should I quit?"

The man hesitated and said, "Qianhe, please don't ask about this matter anymore..."

"I don't care! Just make your words clear!"

"Well... because the sponsor doesn't like the producer to choose you, they want to find someone younger... No, no, they want to find Lihua, who just debuted last year and is now skyrocketing in popularity, to play that role," the man wiped his sweat and said, "Lihua is also an actress under our company. If you are willing to withdraw, there will be no problem. Please, think about it for me..."

“What are you doing?” The woman clenched her fists and looked at the silent people in the restaurant with rapid breathing. “What are you looking at? You… must all want me to disappear from here, right? Fine, I’m going to die right now!”

Without waiting for everyone's reaction, the woman ran out of the restaurant angrily, returned to her room on the second floor and slammed the door.

"Is she okay?"

Xiaolan said worriedly.

"Don't worry, she is just like that," the middle-aged man Cheng Yuan said with a wry smile, "it will be fine once she calms down."

"I hope it's okay..."

Maori shook his head slightly.

……

The next morning at around 9 o'clock, Maoli went downstairs to the restaurant yawning.

Bread, sandwiches, coffee and milk...breakfast looks quite rich.

Maori, Huiyuan and Xiaolan sat at the table by the window. Seeing Conan with dark circles under his eyes and a listless look, they asked in surprise, "You kid, didn't you sleep well?"

"Well," Conan complained, "The doctor was snoring all the time yesterday, and I couldn't sleep at all... I should have gone to your room to sleep..."

"You have a nice thought!"

Maori raised his eyebrows, picked up a piece of bread and stuffed it into Conan's mouth.

After bullying Conan, Maori looked around and asked in confusion: "By the way, why can't I see Miss Chizuru?"

"Oh," Chizuru's husband, Mr. Shiromoto, replied, "She's still angry and just went back to her room."

The president of the entertainment club, Miyabe Kota, who had chased after Bizen Chizuru yesterday, held his head with a worried look on his face: "What should I do now?"

"There's no point in saying anything now," Cheng Yuan consoled him, "Why don't we just wait until she calms down and go fishing."

"what?"

"My work schedule is scheduled for tomorrow, so I'm planning to go fishing today to satisfy my craving." Cheng Yuan smiled and said, "If you are interested, I can lend you my fishing rod."

Miyabe Kota said helplessly: "In that case, I will shamelessly disturb you."

"Dad," Xiaolan patted Conan's back as he nearly choked, and said to Maori, "Shall we go to the plateau on the top of the mountain and take a look?"

"You guys can go by yourselves," Mao Li said without any interest, "I have important things to do!"

"important things?"

"First, I'll watch Ms. Yoko's latest single promotional tape, and then watch her concert video from last month..."

Mao Li said with a hint of boasting, "You know, this video was specially recorded for me by Miss Yoko, and it also contains a special blessing for me!"

"Haha." Conan and others were all frowning.

"father!"

Xiaolan even shouted, "You came all the way here just to watch the video?"

"Or else?"

Mao Li shrugged. "So-called traveling means sleeping in the hotel and eating takeout!"

"What the uncle said makes some sense. I'll stay here too..."

"Little sorrow!"

Xiaolan looked at Ai in confusion, as she made the same choice as Maori.

Mr. Shiromoto and Kouta Miyabe are preparing to drive to the lake to fish. Finally, Xiaolan, Conan, the hotel manager Arimori, and the chef Miss Shinobu are also preparing to go to the plateau to get some fresh air.

As for Maori, Huiyuan and the twin sisters, they stayed in the hotel.

Mao Li walked to the outside of Bizen Chizuru's room and knocked on the door. Just as he was about to shout something, he heard Bizen Chizuru's scolding from inside: "Are you done yet?! Don't bother me anymore!"

Mao Li raised an eyebrow and turned away.

Just watch TV...

There was a TV in the hotel lobby. Mao Li carefully took out his collection of videotapes, put them into the player, and lay on the sofa to enjoy them.

At around ten o'clock in the morning, after Shinobu Shinobu prepared the lunch boxes, the group left the restaurant one after another.

Manager Arimori left the master key to Maori for safekeeping and asked Maori to look after the hotel. However, there were no customers that day, so it was not a problem.

In a blink of an eye, it was already half past twelve. Maori stretched and looked back at the twin sisters who were cleaning the hotel. They had exactly the same body shape, exactly the same movements, and even wiped their sweat in sync. It always seemed unreal.

That Chizuru has also been staying in the room and hasn't come down...

"Detective Maori," the twin sisters noticed Maori's gaze and asked, "Would you like something to drink?"

"Oh, no need," Mao Li came back to his senses and looked at the two sisters and said, "It's almost time to eat, let's stop for a while."

In the evening, Maori watched the videotape and took a nap again. When he woke up, Xiaolan and others had just returned to the hotel.

"Dad," Xiaolan said happily, "You really should have come with us. The sunset on the plateau is so beautiful. We also saw a rare butterfly. Although I heard that they don't approach people casually, one of them actually landed on Manager Yousen's shoulder..."

Mao Li yawned and asked curiously, "Where is Manager Mori? Didn't he come back with you guys?"

"It seems like the engine of the bus he was driving had some problems, so he asked us to come back first."

"Oh?"

"We're back!" Mr. Shiromoto and Miyabe Kouta walked into the hall with their fishing gear. "We caught a lot of fish today. It's a great harvest. We can have grilled fish later."

"By the way, Mr. Mori, has Chizuru come downstairs?" Shiromoto walked straight towards Mori.

"It seems not," Mao Li shook his head, "Come to think of it, she didn't come down all day today..."

"She really knows how to cause trouble for others," Cheng Yuan said helplessly, "Mr. Mao Li, can you lend me the master key for a while? I'll go take a look."

"no problem."

Conan frowned slightly and watched Shiromoto take the key from Mori and go upstairs.

It is indeed strange that Bizen Chizuru has not come downstairs, but the only ones who stayed in the hotel today were the twin sisters, Haibara, and Uncle Mori. Only Shiromoto came back at noon because he forgot to bring his lunch box. There should be no reason for anything to happen, right?

"Chizuru, how long are you going to stay in the room?" On the second floor of the hotel, Maori followed Shiromoto and watched Shiromoto open the door with his own eyes.

“Chizuru!” Shiromoto pushed the door and found it was locked with a safety chain. He shouted hurriedly, “You should calm down, Chizuru…”

"Wait a minute!" Mao Li rushed forward and knocked on the door, shouting urgently, "Ms. Chizuru! Are you in there? Mr. Shiromoto, break the door open!"
