Daily life of a spy in the world of Conan

The sky was dark and chaotic, and the ski resort's lighting system was completely destroyed by the avalanche.

Soon, natural disaster rescue workers arrived to search for skiers who might have been buried.

After all, it is a ski resort, and it is equipped with a certain snow disaster rescue team, which came in handy at this time.

Because the avalanche is not moving very fast, most people will have time to react, so no one should be buried. It's just a routine search.

Looking around, Yoko Asanuma did not appear in Natsukawa's sight.

Either they were engulfed by the snow, or they had already returned to the B&B.

As for Akiko Kinoshita.

Xia Chuan looked back at the snow-capped mountain, which was completely white and even the dead trees were completely covered. He guessed that the mountain was probably cold or even frozen.

As a person with a God's perspective, Yoko Asanuma's murderous intent was too obvious in his eyes. Even the so-called snow woman that Xiaolan saw yesterday might have been Yoko Asanuma.

Kaito hurried back to the B&B where he lived. He wanted to ask Koizumi Hongzi whether the avalanche was the terrorist incident she mentioned.

He also cared about the snow woman that Xiachuan mentioned, and wanted to have a detailed talk with Koizumi Hongzi about whether the legend of the snow woman was true.

The sudden avalanche is too unscientific. Maybe it was caused by the snow girl.

Natsukawa and Conan did not continue to join in the fun and disturb the search and rescue personnel, and turned back to walk towards Genbei B&B.

Such a big thing happened, they need to go back early, otherwise it will make everyone in the guesthouse worried. Especially Conan, this guy sneaked out without asking Xiaolan's consent.

The avalanche seemed to have destroyed the power supply system of the entire ski area. All the houses along the way were dimly lit. Occasionally, some villagers could be seen whispering at the door, seemingly talking about the avalanche.

I don't know when the number of snowflakes falling from the sky increased several times, and the wind blew the snow and it hit people's faces, causing a little pain.

The two men put their hands in front of them and walked forward on the snow that was already above Conan's knees.

Soon, they returned to Genbei Hot Spring B&B.

The B&B was also dim, with only the flickering candlelight in the living room window indicating that someone was still there.

The two of them opened the door and walked into the entrance hall. After closing the door, they brushed off the snow on their bodies.

"Is Ms. Asanuma Yoko back?"

Natsukawa asked Kitamura Genbei who was walking to the entrance door in a slightly anxious manner.

"Mr. Natsukawa, little Conan, you are finally back!"

Kitamura Genbei let out a long sigh, wiped the sweat off his forehead and replied, "Ms. Asanuma Yoko has returned, but Miss Kinoshita Akiko has not returned yet.

Did you see her on the road? It’s snowing so hard, I don’t know if she’s in trouble.”

Kitamura Genbei's face, which had just relaxed, tensed up again: "Ms. Asanuma Yoko said that Miss Kinoshita Akiko is still at the ski resort...but I just heard that the ski resort was completely covered by an avalanche."

Hearing the conversation in the entrance hall, a group of people rushed out from the living room.

"Xia Chuan, are you okay?" With a worried look on his face, Yoel threw himself into Xia Chuan's arms and punched him hard in the chest, almost making him unable to breathe.

"Conan! Next time, don't run around without asking for my opinion. Do you hear me?"

Xiaolan's eyes were red, as if she had just cried.

"I know. I'm sorry." Conan bowed his head to apologize and took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears of Mouri Ran who was squatting in front of him.

Anya, who was standing by, was as steady as a rock. She knew that nothing would happen to her father.

My father was a famous spy, how could he die in a small avalanche?

Also coming out was Asanuma Yoko, her expression kept changing, and there was a hint of murderous intent in her eyes as she looked at Natsukawa.

She thought Xia Chuan would be buried in the avalanche, but unexpectedly he came back safe and sound.

This murderous intent immediately attracted the attention of Xiachuan's family.

Natsukawa and Yoel are a spy and a killer respectively. Both of them are very sensitive to murderous intentions and immediately noticed Yoko Asanuma.

Anya heard Yoko Asanuma's thoughts.

[Why don’t you just die? Why don’t you just die!!!]

This sentence exploded in Anya's mind.

Anya quickly distanced herself from Asanuma Yoko. Her voice was too harsh, as if someone was shouting into her ear through a loudspeaker.

"This guy......"

Anya narrowed her eyes and felt a strong disgust towards this aunt who cursed her father.

I didn't want to care about it, it's just that you don't know how to speak!

Anya glanced at Conan, silently pulled him out of Xiaolan's arms, and ran to the side to whisper.

Natsukawa and Joel both glanced at Asanuma Yoko covertly.

Joel was a little confused and his eyes were serious. He was thinking about whether he should teach this Asanuma Yoko a lesson.

Natsukawa sneered. He didn't want to get involved in this matter, but Asanuma Yoko's attitude made him a little unhappy.

Since you are full of murderous intent, I will definitely not let you go.

With this mentality, he looked at the other person meaningfully, which made Yoko Asanuma feel uneasy.

"Mr. Xiachuan, did you see Mingzi when you came back?"

Asanuma Yoko smoothed her hair and asked in a pretentious manner.

Even though he was a stuntman, he was still an actor after all. Soon tears squeezed out of the corners of his eyes and flowed down, looking so pitiful and sympathetic.

"No."

Just as Natsukawa was about to retort to the other party, Maori Kogoro suddenly interrupted.

"It's okay, Ms. Yoko. Ms. Akiko has played a snow woman before. This kind of heavy snow and avalanches are commonplace for a snow woman."

His idea of ​​comforting her was rather unique, causing Anya to burst out laughing.

"Can you guys come with me to look for Mingzi?"

Because of the avalanche, Yoko Asanuma didn't think that the few people would find Akiko Kinoshita. At this time, showing the persona of a good sister would undoubtedly reduce her suspicion.

"Sister Yoko, when did you separate from Sister Akiko?"

After listening to Ania's story, Conan's eyes were fixed on the pretentious woman in front of him.

He already had some guesses about how Akiko Kinoshita was doing now.

"It was probably around six o'clock, and when I separated from her, she was still skiing at the ski resort.

Then I went up the mountain to look for the legend of the Snow Woman, and when I was coming down the mountain, I ran into Mr. Xiachuan and a young boy by chance. "

"But why did you go up the mountain wearing Sister Mingzi's ski suit?"

Originally, Conan didn't know that the person was actually Yoko Asanuma. It was only when Natsukawa mentioned it on the way back that he paid attention to it.

I already felt that there was something wrong with Asanuma Yoko, and with Natsukawa's reminder, the problem became even bigger.

After knowing that Akiko Kinoshita was missing, Aniya revealed another piece of news to him.

Just now when Yoko Asanuma came back, Aniya saw her burying something that looked like clothes not far from the door.

Akiko Kinoshita hasn't come back yet, so it's easy to guess whose clothes the other party buried belonged to.

Combined with the fact that she went down the mountain wearing Akiko Kinoshita's clothes, Conan has completely linked Akiko Kinoshita's disappearance to Yoko Asanuma.

"Kid! You ask too many questions." Kogoro Mouri rolled up his sleeves and prepared to go forward and deal with Conan.

It’s bad enough that he ran away from home and made Xiaolan worry, but now he’s forcing Miss Asanuma Yoko. Don’t you know that her sister just went missing and is she very sad now?

At this time, I have to go out quickly to find Akiko Kinoshita. The temperature has dropped by more than five degrees in half an hour, and the wind and snow are so strong. It is very dangerous to stay outside alone.

Conan jumped to the side with a whoosh, and before Maori Kogoro turned around, he opened the watch-shaped anesthetic needle, aimed, and fired...

"Uh......"

Kogoro Mouri suddenly staggered, his eyes became vague, and he finally sat on the steps of the entrance hall.

"Uncle Maori, are you okay?"

Conan pretended to care and went forward to help the person, but in fact he had attached a button-shaped loudspeaker to the person's back.

Yoel and Xia Chuan looked at each other, seeming to want to say something but stopping themselves.

Xia Chuan shook his head, shrugged and whispered: "It's okay, Mr. Maori always does this when solving a case. Conan is just following the procedures for Uncle Maori. After all, this is the sleeping Maori Kogoro."

"..."

Yoel blinked his dark red eyes, said "Oh" cutely, and stopped talking.

"Ms. Asanuma Yoko, can you answer Conan's questions?

This is a question I really want to know. I had already put on my ski clothes when I went out, so why did I change them when I came back? "

After Kogoro Mori finished speaking word by word, everyone turned their eyes to Asanuma Yoko.

Yes, why, it is indeed very curious.

"Because she felt the clothes were inappropriate, she exchanged them with me."

Asanuma Yoko frowned and explained casually.

Although she didn't know why the sleeping famous detective suddenly changed the subject, she had already thought of this excuse after meeting Xia Chuan just now, so she answered fluently without any pause.

"Really? But I just heard from Aniya that Sister Yoko seemed to have buried something at the door. What was it?"

Conan plays two roles, and everyone can hear some problems in the sharpness of his words. Mouri Ran originally wanted to take Conan away so as not to disturb her sleeping father, but when she heard that Asanuma Yoko had buried something, she stopped immediately.

"W-what, bury what?"

Yoko Asanuma was a little stuck for a moment.

It was bad enough that he met Natsukawa when he went down the mountain, and he was seen by Natsukawa's daughter when he was hiding his ski clothes and Kinoshita Akiko's suicide note. What was going on?

Is this family deliberately going against me?

There was also this kid named Conan, who spoke so sharply that she didn't know how to respond.

"It seems that Ms. Asanuma is hiding something from us."

Xia Chuan interrupted at the right time, reopened the entrance door, let the wind and snow pour in, and said to Asanuma Yoko: "Ms. Asanuma, why don't we go over there and see what you buried in the snow."

"Ms. Asanuma Yoko, can you answer these questions for us?"

The loudspeaker spoke at the right time: "You should have come to this B&B to investigate a long time ago. Otherwise, how would someone who has never been to the B&B know about the bathroom and the persimmon tree?

The purpose of planning all this is to kill Miss Kinoshita Akiko, right?"

"Heh...hehe."

Yoko Asanuma suddenly became a dozen years more decadent, looking out the door with pale lips.

Seeing the other party acquiesce, the sleeping Maori Kogoro continued to ask: "Where is Miss Kinoshita Akiko now?"

The other party has only a short time to implement the murder plan, and Akiko Kinoshita may still be alive!

"Akiko, she has become one with the snow-capped mountains." Yoko Asanuma smiled bitterly, letting the cold wind outside the door hit her fair and tender cheeks.

In addition to the physical coldness, what is even colder is the heart.

Was it possible that her long-planned murder plan was exposed halfway through its implementation?

But it’s okay, at least Mingzi is dead. Although I may have to spend the rest of my life in prison, at least I have solved one of my worries.

She had no reason to keep hiding it any longer, as buried outside was her own ski suit.

What she just said was that she exchanged ski clothes with Akiko Kinoshita. As long as the hole was dug out, her lie would be exposed.

It's impossible for Akiko Kinoshita to be wandering around outside without wearing a ski suit. They went out during the day without bringing any clothes, so it's impossible for Akiko Kinoshita to be running naked.

Chapter 211: Use Magic to Defeat Magic

There are huge problems here.

What's more, buried along with the ski suit was a will that had been prepared earlier.

Her fingerprints were on the will.

She clearly knew that the other person was going to commit suicide, but she didn't show her will to others. Instead, she asked others to follow her out to look for him. This is completely a case of trying to cover up one's own guilt.

Plus, I met Xia Chuan in the snowy mountains.
