I, Kudo Shinichi, the rice flower death god

The other window is located in front of the desk, facing west, and can see the neighbor's house next door.

Shinichi vaguely remembered that when he was in junior high school, the male owner of this neighbor's house killed the couple in a rage because he caught the female owner cheating on her, and he was also imprisoned.

The house has been vacant ever since.

But when he opened the curtains, he saw that the lights in the room opposite were on.

A charming figure was holding a wine glass, leaning on the window sill, and waved to him leisurely.

It was as if he had known he would look through the window.

"This woman..."

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and for a moment Shinichi didn't know what expression to make.

Unbeknownst to him, Belmode, a hot woman, had secretly moved next door to his house and became his neighbor! .

Chapter 263 Sera’s pure doubts

　　Shinichi didn't pay too much attention to the fact that a hot woman became his neighbor.

After all, Belmore would definitely not do anything detrimental to him, otherwise he would have told the organization the information about him.

However, the Miyano sisters need to take some time to get used to their new neighbor.

Especially Xiao Ai, the poor little loli. She felt a little happier just now because of the progress in antidote research, but now she is so angry that she breaks down inside, crying and fussing, so pitiful!

Today is the penultimate day of Golden Week, and it is also the day Xiaolan and Shinichi have made an appointment to go to the hot springs.

To be more precise, it was Mouri Kogoro who paid for the two of them to go to the hot springs together.

Since returning to the Metropolitan Police Department, he has been much more diligent. Today is his first day off.

It happened that his classmates from college had made an appointment to get together, so he brought Xinyi and Xiaolan with him.

He didn't say it out loud, but Mouri Kogoro still knew that Shinichi provided a lot of help when he was reinstated.

In addition, when Xiaolan came back from Osaka, she brought him a lot of specialties. As an elder, it would be really unreasonable if she didn't express her gratitude.

So he waved his hand, put aside his bold words, and wanted to take Xinyi and Xiaolan with him.

Although he was very handsome when he said this, when he got on the train, he fell into gloom.

"Damn it! I didn't expect that travel expenses have increased so much recently!"

Holding the wallet in his pocket, Mouri Kogoro kept thinking about it.

After becoming a criminal policeman, he worked hard to save unnecessary expenses, and even rarely drank alcohol.

On the one hand, it is to keep working at all times, and on the other hand, it is to save money to buy a car.

You must know that people who work in the Metropolitan Police Department, as long as they have a little status, will buy a mobility scooter to cope with their work.

Even Takagi, who is at the inspection minister level, owns a second-hand Nissan.

Even though this second-hand car was in tatters and didn’t even have air conditioning, it was still a car after all!

Not to mention Miwako Sato’s sports car.

As a senior of the Metropolitan Police Department, Mouri Kogoro is currently a deputy to the police department. He himself has a good reputation, so he naturally wants to buy a car.

It’s best to have something a little more high-end, a little cooler, and one that has a high rate of turning heads when driven out.

The higher the requirements, the more money it will cost to buy a car, so the heavy bleeding in his wallet made him feel distressed.

Seeing her father's appearance, Xiaolan didn't know whether to say that he was pursuing something or that he was stingy.

……

The hot spring hotel that Kogoro Mouri and his classmates chose for this gathering was not too far from Tokyo. The train took more than half an hour to get there.

After all, we are all adults, each has his or her own job, and does not have much time to travel to places that are too far away.

Before getting off the car, Xiaolan made a phone call in advance at Shinichi's reminder.

Later, when they arrived at the hot spring hotel called Benkei, Sonoko's energetic figure appeared in front of them.

How could Xiaolan not call her best friend when she went out to soak in a hot spring?

Just considering the affordability of her father's wallet, she and Yuanzi made an appointment to meet here.

After all, for Miss Suzuki, the cost of such a small trip is not as much as a bag she bought casually.

To Shinichi's surprise, there was someone standing next to Sonoko.

"(＾Ｕ＾)ノ~ＹＯMoori-san! Kudo-san! I'm here to join in the fun々.!"

The small tiger tooth exposed when she smiles makes Sera Masumi look a lot cuter.

She put her hands on her hips and greeted her carelessly, without any sense of restraint.

"Lan, did you call your classmates too?"

Mouri Kogoro frowned, feeling something bad about his wallet.

He had already heard on the train that Sonoko was coming with him, but she was the second young lady of the Suzuki family after all, so he definitely didn't need to worry about the cost.

But now there was an unknown classmate, which made him nervous as the only adult present.

If it was time to pay later, it seemed like I really had no reason to say no!

"Don't worry, Dad! Sera-san will be with us, so just relax with your classmates!"

Xiaolan immediately saw through Mouri Kogoro's little thoughts and explained with a smile.

This was her original plan so that her father, who had been concentrating on work for a while, could relax.

After all, letting a few juniors get involved in the adults' class reunion would make it impossible for both parties.

It's better to each play his own way, that would be more convenient.

The group of people walked into the hot spring hotel. Mouri Kogoro walked directly to a lobby on the left because he had made a reservation in advance.

He had already contacted him before, and all the students from the university's judo club were here and waiting for him.

The new first-class people stayed at the front desk to register their identities.

"．｀Thank you for your cooperation, here is your room key!"

The four people only had two rooms, which was what Yuanzi suggested in a loud voice.

She planned to take this opportunity to let Xiaolan and Sera Masumi get acquainted, so that she could take her two good sisters out to play together in the future.

If the room wasn't big enough, she even planned to open just one room and let Shinichi live in it.

It will definitely be more lively this way!That's what she said.

For this reason, Xiaolan blushed, pulled her aside by her ears, and gave her a good lecture.

During this time, Shinichi and Sera Masumi were left where they were, looking at each other.

The two had only met a few times at school, but because of Sonoko, they had a pretty good relationship with each other.

They can barely be called friends.

But in fact, Shinichi is very familiar with the tomboy in front of him.

Putting aside the memories in his mind, ten years ago, he also met Shiliang Zhenjun by the sea (deli's), and even took him to play with him for a long time.

But the other party obviously didn't recognize it at the moment.

After all, Sera Masumi was just a kid who could stuff French fries into his nose ten years ago, so it's normal for him to not be able to remember.

And Shinichi had no intention of telling her about it, or deliberately building a good relationship with her.

There is no way, who makes the Akai family basically synonymous with trouble!

After checking in and getting the key from the receptionist, Shinichi greeted the three girls and went to his room to put his luggage.

He completely didn't realize that there was some thought and doubt in Sera Masumi's eyes as she looked at him.

Sometimes, children are very impressed by the things they care about.

Even though ten years have passed, Sera Masumi still remembers someone's face.

Therefore, she already felt familiar with Shinichi, but she couldn't be sure.

Please elaborate on the part about Xiaolan in Chapter 264!

　　After putting down his luggage and packing towels and other toiletries, Shinichi walked out of the room, ready to take a bath.

For this class reunion, Mouri Kogoro checked on his mobile phone for a long time before choosing this hotel with excellent facilities and services.

In addition to the normal male and female hot spring pools, there are also special open-air hot springs for mixed gender bathing.

Shinichi had reason to suspect that Mouri Kogoro might have decided to come here after seeing this.

Otherwise, there are still several hot spring hotels with better value for money nearby.

Of course, Shinichi himself has no interest in that thing.

It's not that I feel embarrassed or anything, I just simply don't want to see anything that irritates my eyes.

In his memory, there was absolutely no beautiful young lady to be seen in this kind of hot spring where mixed bathing was possible.

Some are just bloated aunts, bald-headed uncles, etc.

If you're lucky, you might even see monkeys sneaking in from the wild forest.

Maybe the open-air hot spring is already crowded with middle-aged uncles waiting eagerly for their prey!

When passing by the lounge, Shinichi also saw Mouri Kogoro and his old classmates chatting and laughing.

More than ten years after graduation, we still keep in touch with each other. We still come out to get together every now and then. It is obvious that these people have a good relationship.

Their side of the lounge was the busiest.

"Yo! Boy! Come here quickly!"

Seeing Shinichi, Mouri Kogoro immediately shouted to him to come over.

……

When old classmates meet, it is inevitable to ask each other how they are doing recently.
