Sonoko was already excitedly talking to Yonehara Akiko about interesting things at school, while Xiaolan and Haibara Ai were standing by the window, looking at the ski slope outside with anticipation.

Conan stood aside with his hands in his pockets, enjoying this perfect holiday without having to go to school.

He turned his head to look at Huiyuan Ai and whispered teasingly: "Hey, Xiao Ai, you should cherish this opportunity too. It's rare not to have to go to school."

Huihara Ai glanced at him indifferently and said lazily: "I'm not as childish as you."

Conan twitched his lips.

……

After a while of greetings, Yonehara Akiko suddenly asked curiously, "By the way, who arranged the villa this time?"

She looked around, her eyes full of confusion.

Everyone also showed puzzled expressions.

"We all received a note on our desks in the office and thought it was arranged by a colleague, just like before," said Nakamura Minoru with a smile.

At this time, Shimoda Kohei joked, "It must be that fellow Sugiyama-sensei? He loves to do this kind of thing! But he is so slow that he hasn't come yet. He must have overslept again."

Everyone laughed after hearing this.

Sakai Ryuichi twisted his neck and suggested, "Hey, since that guy Sugiyama is late again, let's not wait! Let's go skiing before it gets dark."

This proposal instantly ignited everyone's interest.

Xiaolan's eyes sparkled. She turned around and grabbed Maoli's hand, shaking it excitedly: "Dad, let's go skiing together!"

Mao Li was slightly stunned, and seeing his daughter so happy, he felt warm in his heart.

He showed a confident smile and patted Xiaolan on the head: "Okay, then let's go skiing with dad!"

Yonehara Akiko stood by and joked, "Can Mr. Maori ski?"

Mao Li smiled and waved his hand as if he didn't care: "Yes, of course."

Although he has not learned skiing skills specifically, skiing should not be a problem for him as he has physical fitness far beyond that of ordinary people.

Even if it is really difficult, the worst that can happen is that I can just spend some system points to buy some skills - it's no big deal!

No matter what, he must not embarrass himself in front of his daughter.

"Uncle Maori is good at showing off..."

Conan gritted his teeth and looked at Maori, wondering when he could be as handsome as him.

Only Huiyuan Ai lazily leaned on the sofa, pulled her scarf, and muttered: "I'd better forget about skiing..."

She yawned slightly, and huddled into the soft blanket like an animal that was afraid of the cold, as if she wanted to hibernate.

"You guys go ahead, I'll take a nap."

Haibara Ai didn't even bother to lift her eyelids.

Sonoko had already rushed out of the room, stood in the snow, and shouted excitedly at the white snow around her: "Wow! The snow is so beautiful!"

She opened her arms wide, feeling the cool air surrounding her, a smile of relief on her face.

Yonehara Akiko looked at this scene and chuckled, "Sonoko is still as lively as a child."

Maori's eyes followed the silver-white world, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

As the laughter of the crowd faded away, he felt a long-lost sense of relief - as long as no case happened next time.

"Let's go," he said to Xiaolan, "let's go experience the fun of skiing."

Xiaolan nodded, her face full of anticipation.

She took Maori's hand and dragged him out quickly, with Conan following closely behind.

Yonehara Akiko stood at the door, watching them leave with a smile, then turned to Sakai and Shimoda and said, "I'm going to change my clothes, you guys should get ready too."

Sakai Ryuichi laughed: "I don't want to be outdone by the kids, I have to get on stage!"

Chapter 348: The famous detective is good at everything he does

The white snow on the ski resort sparkles brightly in the sun, and the air is filled with the fragrance of cedar.

After Kogoro Maori and everyone changed their equipment and stepped on their skis, they were eager to try it out.

"Dad, let's go to the beginner's track and practice first!"

Xiaolan suggested excitedly.

Mao Li shook his head and smiled confidently: "No need to go to the elementary road, just go to the advanced road, dad will take you to fly!"

Xiaolan burst out laughing when she heard this, but her trust in her father was unreserved, so she nodded decisively.

As soon as the skis hit the slope, Maori felt the wonderful combination of speed and balance.

He leaned forward slightly, bending his knees gently, and the whole movement was as natural and smooth as flowing water.

In just a few minutes, he easily mastered the essentials of skiing and rode the board down the snow slope without hesitation.

"Dad, you're so awesome!" Xiaolan's eyes were full of admiration.

Mao Li's mouth curled up slightly, and then he slowed down and slid to Xiaolan's side, patiently instructing her while sliding: "Keep your body's center of gravity forward, keep your legs bent, look forward, don't be nervous, just slide down the slope of the snow trail."

Xiaolan listened attentively to her father's instructions and quickly mastered the key points of the movements. She slid skillfully and her snowboard drew a graceful arc on the snow.

"Haha! Look! I can do it too!" She turned and smiled at Maori.

Mao Li nodded with satisfaction, speeding up and skating side by side with his daughter. "Not bad! Adjust your center of gravity more steadily, and let's try the curve!"

On the other side, Conan was wearing a ski suit and speeding confidently on the snow slope.

He had learned skiing skills in Hawaii, and now he could demonstrate them quite well with a very professional posture, which made the onlookers secretly praise him.

"Hey, Sister Xiaolan! Uncle Maori! Look at me!"

Conan slid against the wind and made a handsome emergency stop and turn at the end of the slide, with snowflakes flying everywhere.

"Oh? Sure, Conan!" Maori praised with a raised eyebrow, "It seems you have learned a lot in Hawaii."

"It's nothing."

Conan grinned, feeling extremely proud.

However, at the other end of the ski resort, Yuanzi's situation was completely different - her skis were "extremely out of sync" with the ski slope, and she fell in the snow from time to time. Finally, she simply gave up skiing and rolled around in the snow.

She rolled around with snow flying all over the place, laughing exaggeratedly, and completely letting herself go.

"Hahaha, skiing is too difficult, I choose to have fun in the snow!" Yuanzi scooped up the snow and threw it away, laughing up to the sky.

Seeing this scene, Maori, Xiaolan and Conan couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Yuanzi, skiing is not rolling around!"

Xiaolan covered her face helplessly, but couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at!"

Sonoko's face was covered with snow, but she didn't care and shouted, "This is the real enjoyment! Who said you have to stand to ski?"

Huiyuan Ai stood at the window of the villa, watching Yuanzi rolling into a ball in the snow, and couldn't help but smile slightly: "What a strange person."

The laughter and joy on the ski slopes echoed throughout the valley.

Maori glided gracefully on the snow slope. His movements were agile and every turn was precise and elegant.

The surrounding skiers made way for him and couldn't help but exclaim: "That guy skis really well!"

"Dad, you are so awesome!" Xiaolan's face was full of excitement and she followed Maori closely.

Maori smiled triumphantly and slid forward faster.

"Not only is he awesome, my dad is the skiing prince!"

Seeing that Dad Meng was becoming more and more handsome on the ski slope, the laughter of Dad Xiaoqi in the ski hut also became more cheerful.

Soon after, Akiko Yonehara and her colleagues also changed into their ski equipment and took to the ski slopes in high spirits.

Their appearance instantly attracted the attention of many skiers - their extremely professional ski equipment and the sophistication in their every move.

This is an expert!

"Hey? Look at their moves, they seem to be professional players?" Xiaolan whispered into Maori's ear in surprise.

Yonehara Akiko slid to Maori's side with a meaningful smile on her face: "Mr. Maori, are you sure this is your first time skiing? You don't look like a novice."

Maori smiled confidently and replied casually, "I can learn anything quickly, it's just skiing."

Yonehara Akiko couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, obviously surprised by Maori's talent: "It's incredible. We are actually old members of the ski club. Why do I feel that your level is on par with ours?"

At this moment, physical education teacher Ryuichi Sakai made a great turn on the snow track and stopped steadily.

He took off his goggles and said with a smile, "Mihara, you don't mean to say that even the masters of the ski club will be defeated by the famous detective, right?"

"It's really possible!" Yonehara Akiko teased with a smile.

Shimoda Kohei stood not far away, his hands on his ski poles, and raised his eyebrows and said, "Since everyone's level is so high, why don't we have a friendly match? Let's see who is the king of the ski slope today!"

"That's a good idea!" Ryuichi Sakai immediately agreed.

"Aren't you afraid of being embarrassed when the masters in your club bully the newbies?"

Mao Li raised his eyebrows playfully, with a hint of provocation on his lips.

"Hey, isn't this a novice?" Nakamura Minoru laughed cheerfully, with a gleam of competitive brilliance in her eyes. "Mr. Mori is so good, how can he be considered a novice?"

The atmosphere became heated and everyone was ready to compete on the snow track.

Xiaolan said excitedly: "Dad, come on, Yuanzi and I support you!"

Sonoko carried her ski poles and nodded repeatedly, "Come on, uncle! Beat Mr. Yonehara and the others!"

"Hey? Weren't you and I on good terms just now?"

Yonehara Akiko glared at Sonoko half-jokingly, "Are you supporting your uncle again now?"

Sonoko stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "Of course I have to support Uncle Maori!"

Everyone quickly stood at the starting point of the ski slope, and everyone looked focused.

With a light push of their ski poles on the snow, they rushed down like an arrow.

Maori felt the cold wind whistling past his ears, his eyes focused, he skillfully adjusted his body's center of gravity, and his legs flexibly controlled the skis.

Sometimes he glided quickly, sometimes he turned swiftly, and the skateboard drew smooth tracks on the snow.

Not to be outdone, Akiko Yonehara and her colleagues had obviously undergone rigorous training and their postures were professional and graceful.

However, Mao Li did not fall behind at all with his excellent physical fitness and amazing learning ability. His movements seemed random, but they were extremely precise, which made Akiko Yonehara admire him.

"This guy is really a monster..."

Ryuichi Sakai sighed, but a stronger fighting spirit burned in his eyes.

On the snow track, Maori suddenly stopped abruptly, and the flying snowflakes drew arcs in the air.

He slid to the side of Yonehara Akiko, with a slight smile on his face: "Let's call it a draw this time!"

Yonehara Akiko laughed out loud: "Mr. Maori, you really are a source of worry for me."

The two walked side by side, enjoying the thrill of speed and the snow track, and the joyful shouts of Conan, Xiaolan and Sonoko came from behind.

Chapter 349 Uninvited Guest

When everyone finished skiing and returned to the villa, it was already evening. The sky gradually darkened and the accumulated snow glowed coldly in the dim afterglow.

Maori held the already asleep Haibara Ai, gently put her in the room, and covered her with a soft blanket.

Looking at Ai sleeping soundly, Maori couldn't help but reveal a gentle smile and quietly left the room.

Akiko Yonehara has put on an apron and is busy preparing dinner in the kitchen. The ingredients in the pot are emitting tempting aromas.

She stir-fried the vegetables skillfully, raised her eyes and smiled at Mao Li, "Mr. Mao Li, dinner will probably have to wait a little longer. Speaking of which, why hasn't Mr. Sugiyama arrived yet? He's always late."

"He's been late for a long time."

Sakai Ryuichi shrugged and joked, "But it's really late. If you don't come soon, you'll be hungry."

Nakamura Minori agreed with a smile: "Every time he goes out to play, he likes to be the last one to show up mysteriously. I don't know what he is up to this time."
