Conan: The Mechanic

"Why do you think the treasure is here?" Kimura asked after seeing that the topic had entered the adult age.

"Do you know the origin of the name 'Heiyuan Village'?" Tadao looked at Kimura and said.

"Please enlighten me." Kimura replied quickly.

"The name of Heibuchi Village comes from the fact that when the Takeda family evacuated here, the miners were slaughtered and the spring water here was dyed blood that would not fade, hence the name. But it is worth noting that the golden mountain here is not the largest. , is not the best quality, why do they want to slaughter the miners here alone? You know, there is no record of slaughtering miners in other Jinshan!" Tadao replied. "Therefore, I believe that the miners here are collectively executed because they are the insiders of the treasure buried by the Takeda family, and the Takeda family wants to kill them to silence them!"

"Brother Tadao, is that why you came here to investigate?" Mitsuhiko asked.

"Yeah, that idiot went to the mountains so confidently back then, and then lost his compass because of an accident, got lost in the jungle, and was rescued by my father." Holding a tray with a teapot Kubo Sayuki walked in with some teacups.

"But it's a blessing in disguise because of this, so I can meet the pioneers of the treasure hunt." Tadao's face instantly turned red, and he didn't know whether it was because he was exposed or Kubo Sayuki, who had an unusual relationship with him. People exposed the short, and immediately chose to divert the topic.

"Pioneer of the treasure hunt?" Kimura put a quilt over Tanaka's body - this guy seemed very tired, and fell asleep after listening to a sentence, even the chatter of everyone couldn't wake him up. "I don't know who it is?"

"It's my father, Kubo Spring," Kubo Sayuki poured tea into cups and distributed them to everyone. "At that time, it was my father who found Tadao who passed out in the jungle and brought him back."

"If you introduce Mr. An Chun, you are more qualified than me," Tadao took over the teapot and helped her perform the task of pouring tea. "Pour the tea and leave it to me."

"Huh?" Kubo Sayuki was a little surprised. "This... it's up to me!"

"Just leave it to me." Tadao smiled lightly. "Come on."

"Okay..." Kubo Sayuki hesitated for a moment, and finally sat down on her knees. "Then let me tell the story about my father."

"My great-grandfather was a speculator who came here because of the gold rush, because he used to be a hot spring hotel owner, so he came here and found that even staying here can make a living - just open a hot spring hotel - Although as a shop owner, he had a stable and high income, but his great-grandfather never gave up his search behavior, but his grandfather was drafted into the army because of the war, so he could not continue to search for treasures. Therefore, my father continued the treasure-hunting business. down."

"Especially three years ago, when the hot springs dried up, my father didn't even care about the business here, and I managed it by myself - as for my mother, she died of illness five years ago. In the end, after my father left one day last year, , and never came back."

"Never come back?" Conan frowned. "What's going on? Didn't you call the police and let the police come and search?"

"It's true that I didn't call the police a few days ago..." Kubo Sayuki sadly said. "Because it is very common for my father to not go home for three or four days, and it is also possible to not go home for seven or eight days. Until the tenth day, there was a heavy rain near here, and I was worried about my father's safety. I called the police and asked several families who were still living here to look for it together, but they found nothing..."

"The case is finally closed like this?" Qian Yu said in disbelief. "Even without even seeing the body?"

"There's no other way..." Kubo Sayuki lamented. "I almost went crazy because Tadao was also..."

"I was really out of money at the time, and secondly... I really couldn't accept the possible 'news of Mr. An Chun's death'." Tadao put aside the tray with only the teapot left, and sighed as well.

"Don't talk about that yet? If we go on, this young lady will probably cry at any time." Kimura interrupted their whining. "I know that Mr. Kubo's death has a great impact on you, but I think we should think about other things? For example, can you tell us where the treasure is? Mr. Kubo has been fighting for so long, there should be some Results?

"If we had known, we would have found it out long ago..." Tadao seemed a little unhappy with Kimura's attitude. "And even if the results are achieved, why should I tell you?"

"Children—?" At this moment, Dr. Agasa's voice came. Although everyone came here to listen to Tadao's story, the doctor only stayed in the guest room on the first floor because of his feet. . Thinking of coming to Dr. A Li, he was also waiting in a hurry to call out like this. . . However, Dr. Agasa's voice is too loud, isn't it? It can still be heard so clearly here.

"Sorry, I'll go out first." Conan frowned, then got up and walked out the door, but exclaimed after walking out. "Doctor, why are you here??? This flatbed..."

"Huh?" Such an interrogative word appeared in Chiyu's mind. When he also went out, he realized why Conan said "flat car".

Not far from the door, Dr. A Li knelt on the flatbed with his injured leg, and propped his other foot on the ground, apparently riding the flatbed, using the flat delivery stairs to reach the second floor.

"Doctor," Qian Yu asked curiously. "What is this flatbed?"

"Flatbed truck?" Tadao was stunned. "That should be the kitchen's car... It should have been lent to him by Ryozo."

"What is Ryozo?" Conan asked.

"It's our chef!" Kubo Sayuki had already sorted out the bad mood caused by mentioning her deceased father~www.readwn.com~ and replied with a smile. "The cooking skills are very good, but unfortunately he came here after the hot springs dried up, so his excellent cooking skills can't be brought into play."

"Children, it's eleven o'clock! Why don't you go back to rest?" Dr. Li pointed to the clock that everyone ignored for a long time and said. "Otherwise, it won't rise!"

"It's really not too early today," Tadao glanced at the clock, and realized that it was already very late. "Everyone, go to sleep first, if you have any questions, please ask tomorrow."

. . .

When Tadao took the little guys and helped Dr. Agasa back to his room, he did not sleep in the guest room, but walked into a small door behind the reception desk in the hall.

"Mr. Tadao..." Chiyu and Conan looked at each other in surprise. "Is he going to sleep in the staff area???"

All right. . . He really wasn't an ordinary resident. . . Perhaps, he will become the male owner of this hot spring shop in the future? ? ? However, this is not the point now.

"Ichiro Kimura, Jiro Tanaka, this name has a strong Meiji style." Chiba and Conan were discussing while tidying up the mattress. (It was only in the Meiji period that commoners had surnames, so at that time it was just a random surname with a nickname or something like that. For example, the eldest was called Ichiro, and the second was called Jiro.)

"The point is, why do they use fake names?" Conan didn't understand why. "They're not celebrities, they're not couples - I don't think any of them look like they can play zero roles," he said.

"Cough cough..." Qian Yu was caught off guard by Conan's yellow jokes. "Anyway, stay vigilant... I always feel that something will happen..."
