Chapter 91
Danger!
The next morning
Mu'an Jiaxi was awakened by a knock on the door. He sat up in bed. Recalling the scene last night, his face flushed, as if he was embarrassed. He lay back down again, wrapped in the quilt, and rolled around in bed excitedly, his face flushed.
I screamed silently in my heart, thinking, what's wrong with this man, he's so seductive.
Recalling his every move, since he confessed his love, it was like a rocket, soaring up all the time. If she didn't have strong willpower, she really wouldn't be able to withstand it.
Just as Mu An Jia Xi was rolling around happily, Amuro Toru outside the door called out again: "Jia Xi, breakfast is ready. Hurry up and wash up so you can come out for breakfast."
The person, wrapped in a ball of blankets, stopped dead in his tracks upon hearing the sound. He quickly stood up with difficulty and said, "Oh, I'll be right there."
Without wasting any time, he quickly unwrapped the quilt, put on his slippers, went to the bathroom, quickly washed his face and brushed his teeth, and then went out.
Outside, Toru Amuro was sitting on the sofa with breakfast on the coffee table in front of her. She walked over, sat down, picked up the milk and took a sip.
Toru Amuro was peeling eggs. He looked at her and said, "Let's set off after breakfast." Then he put the peeled eggs in her bowl.
Then he took out the egg from his bowl and peeled it again.
Mu'an Jiaxi picked up the egg, broke it open, separated the yolk, and naturally put it in his bowl and gave it to him.
Amuro Toru saw the egg yolk in the bowl and shook his head helplessly, "You, you can't be picky about food, okay?"
She said shamelessly: "I don't want it, it's not tasty."
Amuro Toru sighed and said, "You." In the end, he followed her lead and still said nothing. He picked up the egg yolk in the bowl with chopsticks and ate it without any temper.
After breakfast, the two went out. Amuro Toru did not drive his car, but drove out Muan Jiaxi's car, saying that he wanted to go out for a drive.
Because Muan Jiaxi rarely uses this car, it is basically gathering dust in the underground garage. Amuro Toru felt it was a pity to see it, so he simply drove it out himself so as not to waste such a good car.
Because the car had not been driven for a long time, there was a thick layer of dust on the surface. The dust was so thick that it was choking.
After getting in the car, he still couldn't believe it and said, "You bought this car and you won't drive it? Even if you don't drive it, you should pay attention to maintenance and don't let it break down."
Mu'an Jiaxi touched his nose and said awkwardly, "Because I'm not very skilled in driving, I rarely drive. Now that I have you, you can switch between the two cars. This way it won't be a waste."
Toru Amuro smiled dotingly, said nothing, started the car and drove out of the underground garage.
After more than half an hour's journey, the two arrived at the scenic spot. After parking the car, they also entered the scenic area.
When passing through security check, Mu An Jiaxi picked up a map of the scenic area and studied it, saying, "This looks quite big." He walked forward while looking at it.
He raised his head and looked around, then asked, "Is that mountain the one on the left or the one on the right?"
Amuro Toru took a look and said, "The one on the left, I received news this morning that there are three families living in this mountain."
Mu'an Jiaxi said, "Three families." He felt a little excited. What this meant was self-evident.
She took another step closer to that person.
Compared to her, Toru Amuro was much calmer. He was not very happy when he received the news in the morning, because before everything was confirmed, it was just speculation.
The two of them walked all the way to the depths of the area. This scenic area happened to be connected to the mountain on the left, and they could clearly see the general situation of the mountain on the left.
After walking a short distance forward, wanting to get a more comprehensive observation ahead, no one expected that they would run into Maori's family. When Mu'an Jiaxi saw them, he held his forehead and cried out to the sky.
She really wanted to turn around and leave, to avoid them if possible, because she saw the little Grim Reaper, and when she thought of his physique, Mu An Jia Xi got a headache.
She and Amuro Toru came here only for business this time and really didn't want to see the case.
But fate is cruel. The moment he saw them again, although Muan Jiaxi grabbed Amuro Toru's hand and turned around to leave without hesitation, the sharp-eyed Xiaolan still saw it and shouted enthusiastically, "Sister Jiaxi, Mr. Amuro."
Such a loud sound, like a loudspeaker, everyone at the scene turned around and looked at the girl who called out. Unless they were deaf, they could not pretend not to hear or play blind.
Under the smiling eyes of Amuro Toru, Muan Jiaxi turned around with all his might. In his heart, he almost cried, as he was about to run into the crime scene again. However, he pretended to be happy and said, "Xiaolan, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here. I'm so happy. There's someone else to enjoy the scenery with."
Conan, who was standing next to Xiaolan, chuckled silently when he heard this, and thought to himself: I was so happy that I didn't see it, but I was so scared that I saw it.
Thinking of the scene where she saw them turning around and leaving just now, she couldn't help but look dead in the eyes. Were they some kind of monster that almost made her run away?
Muan Jiaxi didn't care what Conan was thinking. He looked at Maori Kogoro beside him and greeted him, "Uncle Maori."
Kogoro Mouri smiled and said, "Okay." He glanced at the two of them, and his eyes looked more and more uneasy.
Facing his gaze, Mu'an Jiaxi automatically ignored it all. After all, he had been misunderstood for a number of days and was too lazy to explain.
Xiaolan walked forward with a smile and said, "I really didn't expect to see you here. Since we've met, let's go together. Sister Jiaxi, why did you suddenly think of coming here to play?"
She said, "I just thought the scenery was pretty good, so I dragged Mr. Amuro over to play."
They chatted as they walked, and with the addition of Xiaolan and the others, the two of them changed their route.
The investigation must be put on hold until Xiaolan and her family leave.
Especially Conan, I especially don't want him to know about this. He is a bit impulsive. Once I tell him, he will definitely get involved in the investigation. Investigation is fine, but I am afraid that he will alarm the people behind him, and then let him run away, which would be really bad.
As for who Conan was, he actually had a vague idea that they didn't come here just for fun, but he just hadn't guessed what their purpose was.
When Toru Amuro was alone, Conan took the opportunity to sneak up to him and asked directly: "Mr. Amuro, you guys are not here just for fun today, right?"
Amuro Toru smiled and said softly, "Why do you say that?" Instead of answering first, he asked him.
Conan analyzed step by step: "When I first met you, you were taking pictures with your phones, seemingly enjoying the scenery, as if you were sightseeing. But unlike the others, you didn't turn your heads around and look around. Your eyes were always fixed on the mountain on the left, and you chatted from time to time, never paying attention to other scenery. That's why I guessed that you weren't here to have fun, but to investigate something."
He looked at the mountain and asked, "What's wrong with this mountain? What are you investigating?"
Amuro Toru whispered, "I can't tell you about this right now, and you shouldn't ask about it anymore." After that, he strode forward and caught up with the people in front.
A few of them walked all the way to the middle of the mountain. It was almost noon, so they saw a restaurant next to them. After discussing it, they decided to have lunch first before continuing their tour.
Mu'an Jiaxi followed a few people into the store and found a seat by the window. While eating, he could also enjoy the scenery outside. It was quite nice. However, he couldn't help feeling a little regretful. He definitely couldn't investigate the matter of the mountain today.
Then I thought, the scenery here is nice, it would be nice to take advantage of this time to have some fun, and let’s talk about other things tomorrow. Anyway, I have been waiting for so long, so it doesn’t matter if I wait a little longer.
The waiter brought the menu, and Muan Jiaxi took it and shared it with Amuro Toru who was sitting next to him, and started to choose.
Looking at the fancy and expensive dishes on the menu, she had no appetite. She simply chose a glass of juice and a piece of cake, and then pushed the ordering to Toru Amuro.
Toru Amuro frowned as he listened to the two things she ordered. He looked at the menu and ordered a few more main dishes according to her taste, then returned the menu to the waiter.
After watching the waiter walk away, he turned around and said, "How can you not eat the staple food? You have to eat at least a little."
Mu'an Jiaxi knew that this was someone else's territory and knew he had to be careful when saying bad things. He approached him, covered his mouth with his hand and said, "The food here looks expensive, and the food pictures above are a bit spicy."
Amuro Toru smiled helplessly and said, "But you have to eat at least a little, otherwise you'll be hungry in the afternoon."
It must be lunch time, and since there are so many people, the food is not served very quickly.
Looking at the customers in the store, in just a short while, the store was crowded with people, and there was a long queue outside. If you didn’t know, you would think that the store was holding some event, it was so lively.
Speaking of this, Mu'an Jiaxi has to complain about this scenic spot. Is it appropriate for such a large scenic spot to have only one restaurant?
Yes, you heard it right. There is only one restaurant halfway up the mountain in such a big scenic area. If tourists want to eat, they have to climb down if they are already on the top of the mountain. It’s tiring just thinking about it.
But her focus was not on this. Her focus was on the fact that this restaurant was very profitable. After all, it was the only restaurant on the entire mountain. The owner must be making a lot of money and be very happy.
I’m so envious just thinking about it.
Perhaps her eyes were too intense. Amuro Toru, who was always paying attention to her, immediately noticed her expression and said with amusement, "What are you thinking about? You're grinning like that."
Upon hearing this, Mu'an Jiaxi leaned closer to him and whispered, "Look, there's only one restaurant on this entire mountain, and this is a popular tourist area with countless tourists every day. Even if only half of them come here to eat, the turnover will still be... you know."
Amuro Toru smiled and said, "I'm envious."
She didn't hide it and said frankly: "Yes, I am a little envious. Look at this location, it's really amazing."
At this time, the food was just served to their table. Mu'an Jiaxi stopped chatting and just stared at the food without eating. He waited eagerly for the waiter to finish serving the food before deciding to start eating.
After a while, a waiter came over with a bowl of soup. As there was no room left, he placed the soup in front of Mu'an Jiaxi to make room for other dishes. However, as he was not paying attention, his elbow touched the bowl of soup, and the bowl slipped and fell down.
In the blink of an eye, the soup spilled along the corner of the table onto Mu'an Jiaxi's thighs, and she screamed, "Be careful!"
"Sister Jia Xi!"
"Jia Xi!"
Because the incident happened so quickly, Mu An Jiaxi was stuck in his seat again and couldn't get out at all. His pupils instantly dilated as he watched in horror!
There was no time to do anything and I could only wait for the result of being burned. For the first time, I felt despair in my heart.
