The more you go, the more you will be able to enjoy the feast.

"Who in this world can truly love you? Staring at the dancing lights, it's unforgettable." (BGM "Mystery", one of Conan's earliest theme songs.)

"Ah~ Why did they come along?" Looking at the three little ones singing in the back seat, Conan sighed helplessly.

Dr. Agasa smiled kindly and said, "Haha, what does it matter? After all, the more people there are at a picnic, the more lively it is, right? Don't you agree, brother Maori?"

"Whatever happens, I want to have a good meal when I get to the place, and then drink two more bottles of draft beer."

While responding, Kogoro, who temporarily served as the driver, couldn't help but complain in his heart: [Why did you choose this deep mountain forest for a picnic? Can't we have a barbecue in the yard? I'm starving...]

After driving for more than half an hour, the picnic group finally arrived at their destination and started to work.

"Children, please pay attention. Don't run too far. The range of activities is limited to this area, and you must go together. Do you understand?"

"Yes!"

Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi responded loudly, and then went to pick mushrooms together.

"Fire! Fire! Give me fire!"

Lying on the ground with his butt sticking out, Kogoro kept blowing at the sparks, and finally successfully lit the fire after his face was covered with charcoal!

Seeing this, Kogoro jumped up excitedly and laughed: "It's lit! I am worthy of being the famous detective Maori Kogoro! Just making a fire is a piece of cake! Wahahaha!"

[Hehe~ It's just a fire, do you have to be so exaggerated? 】

Conan, who was skewering meat, turned his gaze to Ai and Ran, complaining about Kogoro's exaggerated behavior with his mouth twitching.

Two mature girls were sitting by the river washing the ingredients that would be used later. It must be said that every move of the beauties seemed so full of charm. It was just a simple dish washing, but Ai and Ran's performance was as refreshing as an ink painting.

"Hiss!"

Perhaps because he was too absorbed in the subject, Conan was stabbed in the finger by a bamboo stick without paying attention, and he subconsciously cried out in pain.

"Haha~ That won't do, Shinichi. You are forbidden to do two things at the same time when doing something. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, you should not be too fascinated."

"Doctor, please don't laugh at me. This is just a small mistake."

Facing the meaningful words of Dr. Agasa, Conan curled his lips in displeasure, and then retorted while lowering his head to work: "Tell me, Doctor, did you borrow money from Huabei to treat us to this meal? I know your financial situation very well. I guess the little savings you have left are all spent on Huibara and those broken copper and iron. "

Hearing this, Dr. Agasa immediately blew his beard and glared: "Shinichi, you are underestimating me too much. How could I, Dr. Agasa, be reduced to borrowing loans to survive as a top scientist who is not yet well-known in the world? I earned my income with the crystallization of my own wisdom!"

Conan shrugged: "Aha~ I'm curious about what inventions of yours the police are interested in, after all, it seems that few of your inventions can be used."

Seeing that Conan underestimated himself, Dr. Agasa's voice suddenly rose several decibels: "Remember My robot guard generation 1? That's the advanced intelligent guard robot I developed!"

"I remember, it's the robot that I dismantled and scrapped when I turned into Orphino, right? Could it be that the police are going to use that thing to guard the gate?"

"No! I upgraded and modified the robot guard generation 1. Now it can be worn by real people, and the helmet is also equipped with a high-end intelligent system. It can be said that this is the best equipment for the police to perform anti-terrorism tasks in the future!"

Seeing Dr. Agasa's confident expression, Conan couldn't afford to slap the old man's face again, so he could only respond politely: "Although I don't understand it a little, I still sincerely hope that your invention will be a big hit. When you get the Nobel Prize, don't forget us ordinary people."

As soon as these words came out, Dr. Agasa laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth: "Haha~ Shinichi, you are really good at talking, but I care more about your problem than the Nobel Prize now."

"Huh?"

Conan stopped what he was doing, then slowly looked up, and saw that Dr. Agasa's expression became inexplicably serious.

"How long do you plan to keep it a secret from Xiaolan? You

You can't keep it a secret forever, Shinichi? You can't hide the truth forever, you should know this better than me. "

"I know, but..."

Looking at Xiaolan who was smiling and washing vegetables by the river, Conan lowered his head and muttered to himself: "It's not the right time yet. I'm not ready, and Xiaolan is not ready either. We all need some time..."

Dr. Agasa kindly reminded: "But Shinichi, what you lack most now is time."

"Okay, Doctor! Let's talk about this later!"

Not wanting to continue discussing this topic, Conan quickly picked up the skewers and walked away quickly, looking like he was avoiding something.

Looking at Conan's back as he walked away quickly, Dr. Agasa's expression was mixed for a moment, and then he suppressed his inner emotions and continued to work with his head down.

Everything seemed to have happened, and everyone was just busy with their own things. Soon the highlight of the picnic, the barbecue, began.

"Sizzle!"

"Aha! Cool! This is life! "

After taking a big gulp of draft beer and a big piece of barbecued meat bubbling with hot oil, Kogoro sighed from the bottom of his heart.

After all, as the old saying goes, the best life is nothing more than a big gold chain and a small gold watch, three small barbecues a day, and being able to lie in bed and suck persimmons when you have nothing to do. This is Kogoro's ideal life.

"By the way, Dad, our school will hold a campus festival performance in two days, and I will play the role of the princess at that time."

"Well! Good vision! My daughter is a natural princess! This role belongs to you, Xiaolan!"

Hearing this unexpected news, Kogoro was immediately excited and flushed, and even Conan showed a happy smile. "That's great, Xiaolan sister, you can definitely play the role of the princess well, you have the temperament. ”

Just when the big and the small kept praising Xiaolan for how suitable she was for the role of the princess, Xiaolan suddenly said something that made Conan and Kogoro look ugly instantly.

“But I heard that the role of the princess will have a kissing scene, and I don’t know who will play the role of the prince?”

Conan: “Da-me! Da-me! Sister Xiaolan, let’s not play it! You are not suitable for the role of the princess at all!”

Kogoro: “Yes, yes, yes! Our ancestors have been poor farmers for eight generations! It was only when your father came here that we could barely start a family in Tokyo. Xiaolan, you really don’t have that kind of aristocratic temperament!”

(See who dares to say that uncles are useless. Before the age of 30, you came out of the countryside and worked, bought a house, got married, and had children in a first-tier city. This ability can also beat a lot of people.)

“Puff~ Okay, Dad, Conan, don’t worry. In fact, the boys in the class are embarrassed to play the role of the prince, so it is very likely that Sonoko will help to play the role in the end. ”

Seeing Conan and Kogoro's faces change instantly, Xiaolan couldn't help but chuckle, and then gave the two of them some news that made them calm down a little.

Kogoro: "That's good enough. If those bad boys are smart and dare to take advantage of my daughter, I will throw them over my shoulder in a minute!"

Conan: "Sister Xiaolan, if those big brothers really have any bad intentions, please tell me, I will go to their house to have a good communication~"

The top daughter slave and East Asian jealous king said so.

"By the way, where are the three children? Why haven't they come back from picking mushrooms? Could they be lost?"

Dr. Agasa, who was grilling meat, suddenly felt that the atmosphere seemed a little quieter, but he looked around and found that the three little ones hadn't come back yet!

In an instant, Dr. Agasa's heart suddenly skipped a beat!

It's over! It's embarrassing! It's embarrassing in the physical sense!
