Although that was what Fangzheng thought, but …
"I didn't expect it to be Valentine's Day …."
As he drove past the snow-covered mountain road, Fangzheng's expression was abnormally calm. Yes, that's right. Wasn't it just a summer night before he went to bed? But when he woke up this morning, he found himself wrapped in snow with the charm of winter? He was already used to it. Time was meaningless, and so was the existence of the seasons. Basically, one had to live today to the fullest, forget yesterday, and ignore tomorrow … Otherwise, he would be done for.
"I'm really sorry, Mr. Fangzheng."
Lan, who was sitting in the back seat, also put her palms together and bowed to Fangzheng.
"We'll have to trouble you to drive us there..."
"It's okay. Mira is going anyway."
Fangzheng shrugged and glanced at Mira, Konan, and Konan through the rearview mirror. This was the "incident" triggered when they met Konan at the mall yesterday. At that time, Konan said she would take Lan up the mountain to learn how to make chocolate. At that time, Fangzheng was still curious about whether Valentine's Day was going to be celebrated ….
Well, when he woke up, it was already before Valentine's Day.
This was even more awesome than "One Night Passed" in the game.
Ever since he got to know Angzheng, Mouri Kogoro had been liberated. Basically, if he needed a car to run errands, he would directly give it to Fangzheng, and then he would drink beer and watch the horse race alone at home, living a happy life ….
But then again ….
"I didn't expect you to be interested in making chocolate."
Glancing at Xiao Ai in the passenger seat, Fangzheng asked curiously. Xiao Ai rolled her eyes at him.
"Can't I? I'm a girl too. It's normal to want to make chocolate. "
"So who are you going to give it to?"
"It's a secret."
After saying this, Xiao Ai turned her head and looked at the snow outside the window again. Fangzheng also retracted his gaze and continued to look forward. Behind him, the girls continued to make a ruckus. In particular, Mira's appearance increased the liveliness of the place by several times. As mentioned before, Mira's personality was very similar to Yuan Zi's. In the end, after the two of them met, they were birds of a feather and quickly became good friends.
"I've received some important information this time. I heard that the chocolate made in the Blow Through Mountain Villa is the most successful matchmaker."
"Ah!"
Hearing Yuan Zi's proud report, Lan also came to a sudden realization.
"So, you plan to give the chocolate you made to Mr. Jing Ji and confess to him, right?"
"Mr. Jingji?"
Mira, who was sitting next to them, looked over curiously, and Xiao Lan also introduced them to Mira.
"Mr. Kyokujin is the leader of the karate club in Beto High School. He is also the Japanese Karate Champion. He once saved Yuanzi in an incident.... "
"Ah, so he is Yuanzi's boyfriend?"
"Ah, yeah, it's not that bad yet …"
In response to Mira's question, Yuanzi's expression was a little complicated.
"What's wrong? Yuanzi, what's the matter? "
Seeing her friend's expression, Xiao Lan worriedly asked. Yuan Zi, on the other hand, looked at her and Mira with a bitter smile.
"Actually, Ah Zhen hasn't called me recently. Even if I call him, all I hear is a voicemail …"
Yuan Zi let out a long sigh.
"It's all my fault.... I told him on the phone that I was going to give the chocolate to the person I like the most on Valentine's Day.... If I had known, I would have just told him the chocolate was for him. But that would have ruined the surprise!"
"Just do your best."
Hearing this, Fangzheng could not help but interrupt.
"Either you don't say it, or you just say everything. You're speaking so mysteriously, who knows what you're trying to express? It's rare for you to meet a man who likes you. If you want to kick him away, then you're asking for it. "
"Ahhhhhh!!!"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Yuanzi also held her head in pain. Xiao Lan hurriedly came up to comfort her.
"Don't worry, as long as you give him the chocolate, then Mr. Jing Ji will definitely understand what you mean."
"Thank you, Xiao Lan."
Hearing Xiao Lan's comfort, Yuanzi also smiled at her.
"But Xiao Lan, you're really strong."
"Huh? What do you mean? "
"I haven't contacted Ah Zhen for a week, and I'm already in so much pain. Will you and Shinichi last longer? "
"Ahh …"
Hearing Yuanzi's question, Xiao Lan glanced at Conan, who was sitting motionless on her lap like a wooden statue.
"Well, yeah … But I'm used to it. Besides, even if that guy isn't around, I'm doing well because I still have Conan. "
While speaking, Xiao Lan lowered her head and looked at Conan who was sitting on her lap with a grin.
"Is that right? Conan? "
"Ahh … Yeah!"
Conan nodded hurriedly, while secretly wiping the cold sweat off his forehead.
How long will it take for me to return to normal!!!
After that, the group finally arrived at the Village of Euphoria. Before they entered the gate, the old lady in charge of the village gave them a warning and told them a story that was circulating around the area. It was said that whenever there was a snowstorm here, people would die, and there would be a box of chocolates next to each corpse. Some people said that it was the doing of the Snow Ladies … Xiao Lan and Yuanzi were quite shocked.
But …
"Do you guys think there really are Snow Ladies?"
Xiao Lan asked anxiously when they returned to their room. Fangzheng just chuckled.
"There aren't any Snow Ladies, they're just folktales."
"But isn't the photographer here to take pictures of the Snow Ladies?"
Yuanzi was also holding Xiao Lan's hand. There were a few other residents in the Village of Euphoria, and one of them was a photographer who was here to look for and take pictures of the Snow Ladies.
"Because these ancient legends have been very popular recently. It's nothing new."
Fangzheng was very calm. Ever since the appearance of the Dragon, a new round of archaeological research and exploration of myths and legends had been launched all over the world. After all, in the eyes of most people, since the Dragon, which only appeared in the stories of knights and myths, existed, then other monsters in myths and legends might also exist. Therefore, there was a wave of exploration all over the world. Many people took the initiative to look for vampires, mermaids, unicorns ….
In Fangzheng's opinion, the photographer was just one of them.
"So there aren't any Snow Ladies? I'm quite interested in Snow Ladies. "
Mira, on the other hand, was very disappointed. She, of course, knew about Fangzheng's true identity, so she was very interested in the rumors about the Snow Ladies. After all, no matter how powerful the Snow Ladies were, they were no match for Fangzheng. If she could see the Snow Ladies in the legends, it would not be a wasted trip, right?
Unfortunately, it seemed that the Snow Ladies really did not exist.
After that, the girls went to the kitchen to learn how to make chocolate. Only Fangzheng and Conan sat in the room watching TV, bored to death. So ….
"Let's make a bet."
Fangzheng put down the remote control in his hand and looked at Conan.
"A bet? What bet? "
Conan was taken aback when he heard Fangzheng's words.
"Bet who will die."
"This again …."
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Conan's little face fell.
"That's enough. Why do you always think that people will die when I go out?"
"Oh? How dare you talk back to me? Well, if you say so, show me the evidence. When did I not die when I went out with you? "
"Uh …."
Conan was speechless. But then, he immediately retorted, "Even if that's the case, you can't blame it on me.
"Even if that's the case, you can't blame it on me. Maybe every time you go out, someone dies."
"As long as I don't go out with you, nothing will happen to me."
Fangzheng glanced at him.
"How about this? Since you're so confident, let's make a bet. If someone dies in the villa this time, Xiao Lan's chocolate will belong to me. In other words, you won't have any chocolate to eat …. Understand?"
"What if I win?"
"If you win, I'll help you make the antidote for APTX4869."
"Really?"
Conan's eyes lit up when he heard this, while Fangzheng nodded.
"Yes, I've already obtained an APTX4869 potion before. As long as I analyze it, I can obtain its pharmacological components and characteristics, and then make the antidote. What do you think? Since you're so confident, do you want to make a bet? "
"Let's make a bet …."
Conan also became excited when he heard about the antidote. But soon, he seemed to have thought of something, and he suddenly stopped.
"Wait, Mr. Fangzheng, don't tell me you've already found out that someone wants to kill someone!"
"If I really could tell, I would have followed him long ago. I wouldn't be wasting my breath here with you."
Fangzheng chuckled.
"What do you think? Do you want to bet? "
"Hmm …"
Hearing Fangzheng's inquiry, Conan immediately used his big brain comparable to Sherlock Holmes to reason.
Indeed, based on his understanding of Fangzheng, if Fangzheng could really tell from the expression of someone who had the intention to kill, he would not be able to do so.
Then he would have acted long ago. It had been like this several times before. From Teacher Koyuri's wedding to Officer Sato's shooting, Fangzheng was always one step ahead of the murderer. This meant that the reason Fangzheng wanted to bet with him was not because he had seen through a certain person's murder plan, but simply because of the fallacy of 'every time I go out with you, someone will die' ….
This seemed a little unbearable!
Conan said, "I don't kill people every time I go out!"
Well, although it was a bit unlucky to encounter robbers dumping corpses during camping, that was just an accident! Accident!
That's right, there is only one truth!
There will never be a problem this time!
"Okay, I'll bet with you!"
Thinking of this, Conan gave a confident answer.
He, Shinichi Kudo, was determined to get the antidote!
