With its short legs, it ran all the way into the house.

Dr. A Li's house.

Ai Haibara had just hung up the phone when Conan called again.

After listening, she thought for a moment and replied calmly, "If that's the case, I would wish them well. His girlfriend must be a beautiful, dignified, intelligent... outstanding girl."

"You're so calm!"

"What can we do?"

After saying that, Ai Haibara hung up the phone and went back to the lab to check on the cocoa beans that were fermenting.

Conan put away his phone, sensing that Ai Haibara's attitude was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Well, it's best if she can let it go.

On his way back, Conan encountered three people: one man and two women. The man was very tall and had a camera hanging around his neck. The two women were both tall and beautiful.

The four of them walked to the door together.

The tall man pushed open the door and looked at the crowd outside. "The terrain here is very complex, and people often die here."

“Strangely, every year around this time, chocolates are often placed on the snow, right next to the bodies that have been found.”

Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki were already frightened by the old woman's legend of the Snow Woman, and now they were even more terrified after hearing this.

After the tall man finished speaking, he put on his sunglasses, looked at the two women behind him, and said, "I should go out to work too."

Yusuke Suzuki watched this guy walk away, never to return.

This guy deserved to die; he didn't have the time to save anyone.

Conan suddenly asked curiously, "He just said he was going out to work, what kind of work is it?"

“Actually, his job is as an interviewing reporter,” Gan Liya said, turning around. “His purpose in coming here this time is to take photos and documents related to something he started investigating five years ago.”

The group naturally started chatting. After watching a hunter carrying a shotgun leave, the old woman said she was going to visit her deceased husband's grave and left with a dog named Sanlang that looked very intelligent.

The dog was taller than Conan when it sat up, but thankfully it didn't show any aggression.

Many people left in no time, and Gandiya suggested, "I think we should take advantage of the time while the aunt is out and start making chocolate, shall we?"

"Okay!" Sonoko Suzuki picked up her luggage. "There are only three days left until Valentine's Day, I need to do my best!"

All the women were making chocolates, and Suzuki Yusuke and Mouri Kogoro were so bored that they led Conan to open the door and try to join them, but were ruthlessly driven away.

"Teacher, how about we have a drink during this time?"

Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mouri's eyebrows practically shot up. "Great! Great!"

Yusuke Suzuki took out a bottle of juice and four bottles of beer from the trunk of the car; these were leftovers from the last time he bought vodka.

The master and apprentice went to the kitchen and made some snacks to go with their drinks, and then happily started drinking.

As for Conan... after finishing his juice, he was really bored. He was the only one in the house with nothing to do, so he got so angry that he simply ran out to build a snowman.

Chapter 193 Suddenly Want to Get a Dog

The wine was finished very quickly.

Four bottles of beer were no different from rinsing their mouths for the master and apprentice.

So the two of them had no choice but to go out and play with Conan.

Yusuke Suzuki grabbed a handful of snow, made a snowball, and 'smack!' hit Conan in the face. The famous detective was naturally not happy about it, but unfortunately he was too weak and could not hit him no matter what he did. Frustrated, he took the initiative to ask to close the distance and fight.

Conan was then buried under a snowball.

"Is this how you have a snowball fight...?"

Kogoro Mouri watched as his beloved student used both hands simultaneously, like a relentless snowball-throwing machine, until Conan disappeared from sight in no time.

Seeing that Suzuki Yusuke showed no sign of stopping, the bumbling detective quickly stepped forward to stop him, "Yusuke, stop! Conan is already buried in the snow!"

Even Conan, who was buried under the snowdrift, was a little dizzy. Can you believe it? He was buried in snow on flat ground, as if he had experienced an avalanche. It's just outrageous!

After he was dug out, he immediately shrank behind Kogoro Mouri and refused to play anymore.

Yusuke Suzuki clapped his hands, looking calm and collected.

Let's let this kid off the hook. He's actually started seeking protection from Uncle Mori, so it seems he's really desperate and has no other choice.

Joyful times always pass in a flash. Night slowly falls, and the snow gradually intensifies. The investigative reporter I met in the morning, Yoshiki Futagaki, has disappeared.

"Can't we find him anywhere?" Kogoro Mouri looked at the two women who had just returned, somewhat incredulous, and had a vague sense of unease.

“Yes,” Mika Funaka said anxiously, “Ako and I have already searched all the places he might go.”

"Now the wind and snow are getting stronger and stronger."

Kogoro Mouri put on his trench coat. "The only thing we can do now is to go find him while we still can see him."

The group immediately set off, and Ran Mouri even turned back to specifically instruct Conan, "Conan, you stay here and wait!"

Conan and Saburo stood together, and Conan agreed with lightning speed.

Yusuke Suzuki was initially too lazy to go out and look for them, but considering it was a group activity, he went out anyway.

It was already dark, and with the heavy snowfall obstructing the view, especially in the woods, finding a dead person was naturally extremely difficult.

Suddenly, a gunshot rang out.

Just as everyone looked in the direction from which the gunshots came, a person emerged from behind them.

"Excuse me, sir, who are you?"

Kogoro Mouri is currently the most reliable person in the small group on the surface, so naturally he is the one to initiate contact with strangers.

"I am a guest staying at a holiday cottage called Fukitoyama-san.

Mika Konakawa and Riyako Kanari then saw each other's faces clearly, confirming the matter.

The man introduced himself; his name was Itakura Hajime.

Yusuke Suzuki couldn't help but scrutinize the guy. He didn't look like Itakura Taku, so they probably weren't related.

Speaking of which, what progress has Itakura Taku made in his software development? Suzuki Yusuke hasn't contacted him for quite some time now. Of course, it's a long time for him, but in other people's eyes, it's probably only a month or two.

After searching with everyone for a while, Itakura Hajime wanted to give up. "If we continue to search for people in the mountains like this, we'll probably be the ones who die in the end."

"We will not perish."

Yusuke Suzuki muttered to himself, "After all, they're the main characters. If they could just get into trouble so easily, what would happen? This guy has absolutely no idea how valuable the protagonist's aura is."

Everyone subconsciously ignored his words, and just then, a dog barked.

"Could it be Saburo?"

"Impossible, Saburo should be in the cabin right now."

“Then it must be Conan.” Suzuki Yusuke looked at Mouri Ran, who also had a very likely expression on her face.

"Let's go and take a look."

The group searched all the way and found Conan and Saburo.

"Conan!" Ran Mouri squatted down in front of Conan, very angry. "What are you doing here?! Didn't I tell you to wait over there?"

"I'm sorry, I just remembered that Sister Funakawa said today that when her former boss was buried in the snow by an avalanche, it was Saburo who dug him out."

"So I thought that Saburo might be able to find out where Mr. Nigaki is more easily."

Conan was arguing his point, and Suzuki Yusuke, feeling bored, simply went to pat Saburo's head.

Should we get another dog?

Finding a companion for a bird could also mean finding an enemy.

Saburo's warm tongue licked Suzuki Yusuke's hand, and his big head twisted back and forth, which was quite amusing.

Now I want to raise one even more!

While he was petting the dog, Conan led the group to a corpse not far away.

Kogoro Mouri concluded it was a murder and prevented others from approaching the body to avoid disturbing the scene.

"Who do you think you are?! You're not a policeman." Itakura Hajime looked unconvinced.

“That’s right, I’m not a policeman anymore,” the bumbling detective said slowly as he continued to examine the body, “but I used to be a policeman. I am Kogoro Mouri.”

The activation of the passive skill shocked everyone.

"So... do you already know who the murderer is?"

Yusuke Suzuki shook his head as he listened. How could it be so fast? Even if it were him, wouldn't it take him a while to recall the plot?

The bumbling detective's analysis only continued to shock the onlookers.

Then, the hunter who had left during the day arrived, bringing with him the news that the tunnel had been blocked by an avalanche.

Back at Fukitoyama-so, Kogoro Mori called the police, who, as expected, told him they couldn't come over.

"Teacher, I'm going back to my room to rest for a while."

Yusuke Suzuki has been taking a break these past two days, and this case is no exception. He has no interest in spending time down here, especially since he already knows the details of the plot.

"Ah good."

Seeing that the muddle-headed detective nodded in agreement, he patted Sanlang's head again before going upstairs into the house.

Indeed, standing is not as good as sitting, and sitting is not as good as lying down.

Lying in bed like this makes me feel so good.

Looking out the window, Yusuke Suzuki suddenly had the urge to climb out and find Makoto Kyogoku, who was on his way, and pretend to be an assassin to fight him.

But after much deliberation, he gave up on the idea.

The main concern was that he didn't know Kyogoku Makoto's current location, and he was worried that he might get lost if he went out.

Lie flat!

He tried calling Ai Haibara, but the signal was too weak, so he simply started playing Tetris, a game he had downloaded before but hadn't played much.

Speaking of which, after the chairman of the Sindora Group was arrested, the world's technological level seemed to stagnate again, and the smartphone he had been longing for still hasn't been released.
