Qingze got into the jeep, started the engine, and turned on the heater.

The roar of the engine and the rising warm air dispelled the chill inside the car.

Ran Mouri got into the passenger seat, her eyes sparkling with anticipation:

"The snow scenery in the mountains must be beautiful!"

It's been so long since I've gone out to play.

"You should think about what to do when the heavy snow blocks the roads."

"Then let's stay in the villa for a few more days!"

Ran Mouri wasn't worried at all.

Even if there's heavy snow in the evening, the snow on the roads should be cleared by tomorrow or the day after.

Qingze raised an eyebrow, "Not going to school anymore?"

Ran Mouri leaned closer to him with a grin, her tone slightly coquettish:

"Teacher Qingze will help me make it up!"

"Dream on. If you're going to school, then go to school properly."

After Qingze turned on the heater, he got out of the car and put essential snow gear such as snow chains in the trunk to prevent the wheels from slipping in the snow.

Chapter 405 is aimed at Qingze.

Sonoko Suzuki, Masumi Sera, and Eisuke Hondo were already waiting at the coffee shop downstairs from the Mori Office.

Five people went out to play, and Qingze could drive just the right amount of one car.

Seeing several people carrying backpacks and looking quite pleased with themselves, Amuro asked with a smile:

Are you getting ready to go out and have some fun?

“Yeah!” Sonoko Suzuki said casually, “Let’s go to my family’s mountain vacation villa for a couple of days. It’s been so long since I’ve gone out to play!”

"Mr. Amuro, please pack some sea salt cookies for me, and five hot drinks as well!"

Amuro Tooru's eyes flashed. "Five cups? Does that mean Ran and her boyfriend are also there?"

"Ok!"

"I brought playing cards and several board games," Hondo Eisuke said with a smile, rummaging through his bag.

"What games are there?" Sera asked, leaning closer.

"Werewolf, Monopoly, Truth or Dare..."

"It looks interesting."

Upon hearing the truth or dare question, Amuro Tooru leaned closer with a smile.

"I haven't gone out for a while, would it be convenient for me to come along?"

"Hey!" Sonoko exclaimed with delight when she saw that he wanted to go too. "That's fine, but our car can't fit everyone! Besides, Mr. Amuro, don't you have to go to work?"

"It's alright, Miss Xiao Zi is at the shop. As for the car, I have one."

Looking at this colleague who was telling her to skip work and go out to play right in front of her, she had a strong urge to kill him.

Amuro Tooru felt a chill run down his spine, turned around, clasped his hands together, and tried to use his good looks to his advantage.

"I'm leaving the shop in your care, Miss Xiaozhi."

"Go and talk to the store manager yourself!"

Amuro Tooru chuckled awkwardly and took out his phone to ask the store manager for leave.

Sera Masumi rested her chin on her hand, giving him a meaningful look. "Mr. Amuro is really quite willful..."

Amuro Tooru's smile remained unchanged. "A party sounds like it'll be a lot of fun."

The Jeep stopped in front of the coffee shop, and Ran Mouri rolled down the window to greet a few friends.

"The garden!"

Sonoko Suzuki handed over two cups of hot drinks.

"Here you go, a freshly made hot drink."

"Then I won't be polite."

Ran Mouri inserted a straw into the cup and handed it to Aozawa.

Upon seeing Aozawa, Sonoko Suzuki smiled in an unusually mischievous way.

"Oh my, Qingze's style is quite unique today."

Last time I went out, I wore rings all over my hands. This time it wasn't as extravagant, but you could tell at a glance that it was carefully coordinated.

Qingze smiled and gestured for them to get in the car.

"Get in the car! It's cold outside."

Sonoko sat in the back seat, not forgetting to mention Amuro Tooru.

"Mr. Amuro said he would also go out with us."

Amuro Tooru walked to the car window and waved to them with a smile.

Qingze's smile faded slightly, and he lifted his eyelids to look at him, a dangerous glint in his eyes.

Amuro Tooru's smile remained unchanged. He turned his head to look at Sera Masumi and Hondo Eisuke, who had not yet boarded the car.

"My car can also seat people. Does anyone want a ride in my car?"

"Then I'll ride in your car, Mr. Amuro!" Sera Masumi said with a smile.

"Okay. Wait for me a moment, I'll go get the car."

Hondo Eisuke sat in the back seat, and Aozawa closed the car window.

Ran Mouri turned to look at Sonoko in the back seat. "We didn't say that Mr. Amuro would be coming with us."

"While I was waiting for you guys, he said he wanted to come along too, so I agreed. It's more fun when there are lots of people!"

Hondo Eisuke adjusted his glasses. "This Mr. Amuro is really not like an ordinary coffee shop employee."

Which coffee shop employee can just quit their job like that?

His intuition told him so.

This Amuro Tooru is probably not simple.

“Mr. Amuro is a detective; working at the coffee shop is just a side job,” Sonoko explained, answering his question.

Hondo Eisuke frowned. "Is he investigating something, which is why he's working part-time here?"

What would a detective investigate?

Mouri Kogoro?

Or is it Conan Edogawa?

But Conan has already left the agency, so why is he still here?

"Mr. Amuro is just doing this part-time," Ran Mouri explained to Tooru Amuro.

She felt that this relaxed and enjoyable gathering was about to turn into a scheming one.

Hondo Eisuke is a CIA agent, Amuro Tooru is a public security police officer, and Sera is a detective with strong curiosity and keen insight; she also appears to be Akai Shuichi's sister.

Add another one, Qingze, codenamed Koniak.

She could already imagine how complicated the situation would become...

She took a sip of coffee, glanced at Sonoko who knew nothing and was looking forward to the party, and sighed inwardly.

Sometimes, not knowing is a kind of happiness.

The Jeep followed the route given by Sonoko Suzuki, while Tooru Amuro's Mazda followed at a leisurely pace.

Sera Masumi sat in the passenger seat, chatting with Amuro Tooru.

“Mr. Amuro originally didn’t plan to come with us, but when he heard that Ran and her boyfriend would be going, he offered to come with us.”

Sera Masumi turned her head to look at him, her dark green eyes slightly narrowed, trying to discern something from his face.

"Why? Is it because of Qingze?"

When she was at Shinichi Kudo's funeral, she saw Tooru Amuro trying to talk to Aozawa, but Aozawa didn't want to talk to him.

Amuro Tooru sighed, "Mr. Mori felt that Aozawa was a playboy and asked me to keep an eye on him. I was also a little worried that he would deceive Miss Ran's feelings, so I came along."

Then, he asked Sera Masumi in return:

"Miss Sera, do you know anything about this Mr. Aozawa?"

"No, I've only met him a few times. I have to say, each time I met him, he left a deep impression on me."

Sera Masumi shook her head with a smile, revealing her cute little tiger tooth.

"Oh?"

"When I first met him, I thought he was very cold, with an aloof attitude, and seemed like the kind of person who was difficult to talk to."

Even when dealing with Xiaolan, his tone was cold and indifferent.

Sera Masumi rested one hand on the car window, supporting her cheek, as she recalled the scene.

She guessed that Qingze and Xiaolan had just met at that time and weren't very familiar with each other yet.

"The second time was completely different; he was much gentler. It must be because he'd spent a lot of time with Xiaolan and gotten to know her well, so he was also much gentler towards us classmates..."

After that, it was at the funeral parlor and the hospital.

Based on a simple understanding and observation, Qingze's personality is actually just like the impression he gave when we first met.

He is very cold to outsiders; his gentleness is selective.

However, it is still unclear whether it is cold on the outside but hot on the inside.

"Speaking of which, their progress is really fast!" Sera Masumi exclaimed.

They got together after only meeting three times!

Amuro Tooru picked up where she left off:

"So, since Teacher Mori is worried that this Aozawa has ulterior motives, as his disciple, I naturally have to keep an eye on things for him. After all, people who are immersed in love are easily blinded."

Sera Masumi's eyes curved into crescents, her gaze filled with even greater curiosity.

"Mr. Amuro is truly a good disciple..."

It's confirmed.

Amuro Tooru is here because of Aozawa.

Chapter 406 Does Mr. Amuro have a problem with me?

Sera Masumi lowered her head, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes.

Who exactly is this Amuro Tooru?

Four years ago, she met her brother in Japan.

The brother I thought was in America actually appeared in Japan.

At the time, there was another man with her brother, and both of them were carrying large guitar bags, which appeared to contain guns.

She went to find her brother, but he scolded her and told her to stand still and wait for him to buy a train ticket.

Seeing that she was crying, the man who was with her brother took out a bass and taught her to play it.

He didn't play for long, only 10 minutes, after which a man with his hat pulled low came to find the man.

After that, they left.
