Chapter 393: Conan and Sakura are on vacation in a mountain?

"Speaking of which, it's been so long since we visited the Tsukishiro family. It's really rude of us. Why don't we take some time to pay them a visit when we get back? What do you think, Touya?"

Fujitaka drove with a gentle smile on his lips, asking for his son and Yukito's opinions.

"Okay, okay!" Before Touya could even speak, Sakura nodded first.

She had visited Snow Rabbit's house a few times before.

However, they never met Snow Rabbit's grandparents.

If I go this time, I'll probably get to meet Snow Rabbit's elders.

"Uncle, I would be very happy to welcome you, but there are only two elderly people in the family. They are getting old and can't stay idle. They especially like to go out and about on their own, so even I don't see them very often."

Yukito sat obediently in the back. Although he seemed to agree to Sakura and her family's visit, his words implied that he didn't really want them to come.

Or rather, even if they come to visit, there is a high chance they won't see his grandparents.

Fujitaka raised an eyebrow in slight surprise, about to say something, when Touya suddenly interrupted him: "It's time to turn, old man, you should turn this way."

"Oh? Did you come here when you were little, brother?" Sakura blinked her dark green eyes curiously.

When Touya heard his father say this, he paused and was slightly taken aback.

His gaze involuntarily drifted towards the distant woods, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

After a moment, he nodded slightly and said calmly, "Yes, it was indeed a long time ago."

"Then why didn't I know that my brother came here when he was little?" Sakura tilted her head, having no recollection of ever visiting this place.

Fujitaka couldn't help but chuckle.

Touya glanced at his silly little sister and said, "What nonsense are you asking? I was still young back then. Even if you had been here, you wouldn't remember."

Moreover, back then—

Touya sighed inwardly.

"Oh, I think so!" Sakura suddenly realized and stopped worrying about it. Instead, she said with a hint of envy, "Uncle, did your friend go on a trip abroad? Is it fun abroad? I heard that Xiao Wang's hometown is very beautiful. I want to go and see it."

"That Changsheng kid?" Fujitaka nodded after hearing Sakura's words while packing his luggage. "His hometown is a vast and beautiful place. I participated in an archaeological excavation there before. It is indeed very beautiful."

He paused, then immediately felt apologetic: "I'm so sorry, we can't travel abroad right now."

.

If you want to have a good trip abroad, you need at least ten days to two weeks.

But he's been very busy lately, and another place has invited him to go on an archaeological expedition.

That means he can now spare two or three days to take Sakura out for some fun.

Otherwise, he could take Sakura and Touya with him on a trip abroad.

"Huh? No, no, Uncle, I just wanted to see Xiao Wang's hometown. It's not like I have to go abroad to play! This place is great, I like it very much!" Xiao Ying waved her hands as soon as her father apologized to her.

Going abroad isn't actually that difficult for her.

and----

She had already gone out with Zhi Shi and Wang Changsheng a while ago.

However, the place she was going to wasn't the hometown of her classmate Xiao Wang, whom she wanted to visit. She wanted to go and see it, but she was too embarrassed to say to Wang Changsheng that she wanted to visit his hometown.

After all, from her observation, it seemed that Xiao Wang had no intention of going home to check on things.

She didn't want to bring it up rashly.

If anything she said reminded Xiao Wang of the unpleasant things that happened in that family, she would feel very guilty.

Therefore, although Xiaoying wanted to go home with Wang Changsheng, she never brought it up.

"Old man, I'll go take a look first!" Sakura said to her father.

"Okay, go ahead, we'll move your things in soon, and then we'll clean your room thoroughly."

Fujitaka nodded.

Sakura skipped and hopped to the front door of the small building, still clutching the house key her father had given her.

Insert it into the lock and twist it slightly.

"click"

The door opened.

Sakura slowly walked inside.

The sky was clear and bright at that moment.

The sun shone brightly, its golden rays spilling into the small building, creating a radiant glow that enveloped the space, with specks of dust floating within.

The warm sunlight slanted down through the dense foliage, casting dappled patterns and textures inside the room.

Sakura's eyes were bright, with a glint of light flashing in her dark green pupils.

Her mouth agape slightly as she exclaimed, "Wow, this living room is huge! It's much more spacious than our house!"

Perhaps because it was built on a mountain, although the wooden building looked like it hadn't been lived in for a long time, the air inside was still very fresh, as if there was a breath of nature lingering around it, and the fragrance of wood was refreshing.

"There doesn't seem to be much dust. Is it because the wind is constantly blowing in the mountains?"

Sakura didn't go upstairs; instead, she ran out the door and stood on the steps in front of the building, waving to her parents: "Old man, this place is beautiful! Hurry up and pack your things to come in!"

Seeing that Sakura seemed to really like the place, Fujitaka couldn't help but smile.

He stood up and nodded: "Hi."

Sakura stood on the platform in front of the door for a while, took a few deep breaths of the fresh mountain air, then ran to the car to take a handbag, and then went back inside.

She carefully took the contents out of the bag.

It was a picture frame.

The person inside was Sakura's mother, Nadeshiko.

Nadeshiko in the photo is still as beautiful and charming as ever.

Sakura carefully stroked the photo frame for a moment, then looked around and placed it on the table by the window.

This is the most vibrant and dazzling spot, offering a direct view of the main gate while basking in the brilliant sunshine.

"That way I can say hello to you every time I come in or leave!" Sakura chuckled, resting her little arms on the table and propping her chin up with her hands. "Oh my god, we're staying here together for two days. Isn't it beautiful?"

In the photo, Nadeshiko is wearing a peach-pink dress, and her smile is as bright as the sunshine.

In the dazzling light, Sakura had the illusion that her mother in the photo was looking at her.

"Huh?" Sakura blinked her eyelashes and quickly rubbed her eyes.

Take a closer look.

But the photos turned out to be the same as always.

She pursed her lips: "Mom, I miss you a little."

Take a deep breath.

Sakura clenched her fist, cheering herself on.

"Mom must miss me too. I'll be looking forward to the next two days!"

Sakura quickly regained her lively demeanor.

On the other side of the mountain.

A girl was walking in the woods with a child.

Unlike Sakura and the others, they weren't driving on the main road.

Instead, they ventured deep into the mountains, walking through dense old forests, seemingly lost.

The surrounding trees are tall and straight, reaching for the sky and blocking out the sun, with heavy shade and shadows.

The two walked here, and even though it was broad daylight, the surrounding environment was somewhat dim.

"Hey, Sister Xiaolan, are you sure you know the way?"

The child following the girl felt like he had been walking for a long time, but not only did he not feel like he was on the right path, he even seemed to have gone to the wrong place.

"Are we lost?"

"No, don't worry, Conan."

The girl held the map and examined it carefully, while casually reassuring the child beside her.

Even she herself wasn't entirely sure, because she might have really led the wrong way.

The two had been wandering around in the deep mountains and forests for quite some time, but they still couldn't find the path they were supposed to take.

"Really not? —"

The child twitched the corner of his mouth.

It turns out the two were Ran and Conan. The reason they came here has to do with what happened a few days ago.

At that time, Conan helped Uncle Mori solve another case.

It turned out to be related to Sonoko and the others.

It is said that someone tried to steal diamonds from a jewelry store owned by their family, imitating Kaito Kid, but was caught red-handed by Conan and Uncle Mori.

After learning about this, Sonoko insisted on taking Ran to one of their family's cabins in the woods for a vacation during summer vacation to express her gratitude.

Xiaolan didn't want to go, after all, the shock of her trip to Moonshadow Island was still fresh in her mind.

Moreover, he has recently encountered quite a few murder cases along with Conan and Uncle Mori.

She finally had a holiday, and all she wanted to do was stay home for a few days, not wanting to do anything or go anywhere.

However, Sonoko heard about their last trip and insisted on inviting her to come and relax.

And it felt like if Xiaolan didn't go, she would stick to her side like a little shadow every day.

In the end, Xiaolan couldn't resist Sonoko's enthusiasm and agreed.

Since she was already on vacation, she decided to bring Conan along as well.

So that Conan won't be left at home and Uncle Mori won't even cook for him.

What if I get back and the person has starved to death?

Xiaolan held the map in her hands and stared at it for a long time. With various routes reflected in front of her, she even felt that she could no longer distinguish which road was which.

After dawdling for a while, she started to feel embarrassed.

"I don't think so, right? I've been following the map's directions the whole time, how could I get lost like this? It's really strange—"

"—" Xiao Lan muttered.

Conan sighed, "Ran-neechan, could you show me the map?"

Conan took the map from Ran and compared it with the map, discovering that they were indeed on the right track under Ran's guidance.

"It really is this way?" Conan looked puzzled. "Isn't this route a bit too roundabout—is that cabin in the woods really a resort? It's so remote; if something happens, rescue will be difficult."

However, since that's how they've come to be, Conan couldn't say anything more and could only continue walking forward with Ran.

After a while, they walked for what seemed like an eternity, until they finally saw the cabin in the woods that Sonoko had mentioned.

Standing at a distance, I could see the outline of the villa in front of me.

Xiao Lan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She genuinely thought she had led him astray. Although she was quite familiar with Conan, she would still be very embarrassed if she had actually led him astray.

"Luckily, I didn't go the wrong way, but this place is remote, desolate, and cold—"

Xiao Lan began to speak, but she stopped herself halfway through her sentence.

Why do I feel like there isn't a single good word in these descriptions?

For some reason, Xiaolan felt a strange, unfriendly premonition rising in her heart.

She had a feeling that this vacation might not go too smoothly.

"Pah! Pah! You jinx! This is a society governed by law now, there aren't that many bad people here! This vacation is sure to go smoothly!"
