After that, everyone went about doing their own things.

Since there will be no new guests coming to the hotel today, Kogoro suggests that Miss Shinobu Komon, the hotel chef who was scolded by Chizuru Bizen last night, go out for a walk. As for himself, he plans to stay in the hotel all day and watch Yoko Okino's concert and TV dramas... typical performance of a otaku.

So in the end, Kogoro Mori, the Shimokasa sisters and Chizuru Bizen stayed in the hotel, while Masaru, Ran, Conan, Ai, the hotel manager Mr. Arimori, and the chef Ms. Shinobu Kokado went to the plateau to relax, and Chizuru Bizen's husband Mr. Shiromoto planned to go fishing with the president of the entertainment company.

Manager Arimori gave the master key to Kogoro Mori for safekeeping. After all, as a famous detective, he is still trustworthy.

Everyone decided to go out and play for a day and then come back for a barbecue in the evening.

So Miss Shinobu Shimon drove Fang Zheng, Xiaolan, Conan and Xiaoai to the plateau, while Mr. Arimori followed them in another car and started today's journey.

I have to admit that if there were no murders, traveling would still be a very relaxing thing. Fang Zheng has now let it go. No matter when someone dies, you should still enjoy it. Look at how good Conan and Xiaolan's mentality is. Basically, every time they go out to play or eat, someone dies, but they don't stop going out...

Lying on the soft grass and looking at the blue sky really makes people feel relaxed and happy.

"By the way, you don't seem to have much interest in developing an antidote."

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng couldn't help but turn his head to look at Huiyuan Ai who was lying beside him. He remembered that in the animation, Xiao Ai seemed to have been studying how to restore herself to an adult. Although she had never successfully created an antidote, she had also created a drug that could be used together.

But in fact, Fang Zheng found that Xiao Ai didn't seem to have any interest in making the antidote, and was quite enjoying her current life.

"What's wrong with that? If I turn into a child, it won't be easy for the organization to find me."

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Xiao Ai stretched lazily, and the whole body exuded a strong smell of salted fish.

"Besides, rejuvenation is every girl's dream. I don't know how much my sister envies me. At least now I don't have to count the wrinkles around my eyes in the mirror every morning when I wake up."

“…”

Wow, if you said this in front of Mingmei, I'm afraid we would no longer be able to be sisters and would just quarrel on the spot.

"Besides, I have always hoped to live a life like a normal sister with my sister. Now it's not bad, isn't it?"

“Oh…”

Hearing this, Fang Zheng more or less understood Xiao Ai's thoughts. In the anime, Xiao Ai wanted to recover quickly because her sister died and she was wanted by the organization. As a child, she felt very helpless. But now that Miyano Akemi is still alive and she has found a backer, she naturally became lazy.

I remember Xiao Ai also said that because their parents were members of the organization, and because the two sisters were basically raised by the organization, it was impossible for them to live a normal sister life. Now that there is such an opportunity to make up for the regret, Xiao Ai would have to be crazy to want to restore the status quo.

At this moment, Xiaolan also greeted the two of them from a distance.

"Xiao Ai, Mr. Fang Zheng, come and play together!"

"Forget it, I'm free anyway, just enjoy it."

Fang Zheng stood up and took Xiao Ai to where Xiaolan and Conan were.

"Do you want me to tell you a story?"

“…”

Hearing this, Xiaolan and Conan's faces changed slightly and they shook their heads at the same time. You're kidding, we're still telling stories. The psychological trauma from the last time in the mansion has not been resolved yet, especially Xiaolan, who has been terrified to death since then when she sees a caterpillar...

"No, no, no, Mr. Fang Zheng, how about we... play badminton?"

"Okay."

After that, Fang Zheng and Xiaolan played badminton, while Xiaoai and Conan watched from the side. Miss Shinobu Shimon was the referee, and Manager Arimori prepared lunch.

At the beginning, the two sides were just playing around, but soon, Xiaolan got serious. After all, she was the leader of the karate club and had good athletic nerves. After watching her spikes being caught by Fang Zheng without any hesitation, Xiaolan also became competitive and quickly increased her speed. Then the two of them played back and forth, fighting fiercely.

"Come on, Sister Xiaolan!"

Conan was happily cheering for Xiaolan, but at this moment, Xiaoai came up to him.

"Edogawa-kun."

Hearing Haibara calling his name, Conan turned around and looked at her in confusion. Although unlike in the anime, Conan did not know Haibara Ai's true identity, but he also found that this girl named Haibara Ai was a very mysterious and calm person, and also quite smart. It must be said that Conan and she got along well.

"Habara? What's wrong?"

"Don't you think they are a good match?"

Xiao Ai looked at Conan with a smile, then looked at Xiaolan and Fang Zheng who were playing tennis.

"I think Sister Xiaolan seems to like Brother Fangzheng."

“…”

Hearing this, Conan's expression changed slightly.

"Hahaha, how is that possible..."

"Maybe Sister Xiaolan will become Brother Fangzheng's bride."

Xiao Ai said again without fear of trouble, and then looked forward again. Conan also laughed dryly and turned back again. But unlike before, this time he observed carefully and found that Xiaolan seemed to be quite happy... No, no, it was because everyone was playing together on the plateau that Xiaolan was so happy. It can't be because of Fang Zheng, after all, they...

Hmm? Thinking about it carefully, Xiaolan and Fangzheng are also very familiar with each other, and Fangzheng is always very enthusiastic every time he sees Xiaolan. In addition, he is very handsome. Speaking of which, Xiaolan seems to have said that Fangzheng is very popular...

Thinking of this, Conan suddenly felt a sinking feeling on his head.

"Sister Xiaolan, I want to play too!!"

The next moment, he raised his hands and rushed towards Xiaolan, shouting.

Ai put her hands behind her back, looking at Conan's back, with a slight smile on her lips.

For her, observing the shrinking high school detective Kudo Shinichi is almost becoming a pleasure.

This is much more interesting than laboratory mice.

After that, everyone had lunch on the plateau, took a nap, and left when the sun set. Mr. Arimori had to wait a while before leaving because his car had engine problems.

When the group returned to the hotel, it was already evening, and Kogoro Mori was still sitting in the lobby, cheering on Yoko Okino's concert.

"Dad, we're back."

Xiaolan also greeted Kogoro Mouri.

"The plateau is really interesting, and we also discovered a strange butterfly..."

However, before Xiaolan could finish her words, Maori Kogoro interrupted her by disturbing her concert. Well, looking at Kogoro at this moment reminded Fang Zheng of the children in his previous life who were called by their parents to eat while watching cartoons...

It's all the same virtue.

After that, Mr. Shiromoto and the president who went fishing also returned to the hotel with a full load. Mr. Shiromoto then went upstairs to call his wife, and Fang Zheng also took Xiao Ai back to the room on the second floor to rest. However, when they walked to the door of their room, they saw Mr. Shiromoto knocking anxiously on the door.

"Hey, Chizuru, Chizuru, did you hear that? Answer me!"

"What's wrong, Mr. Shiromoto?"

Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng also walked over with Xiao Ai, and Mr. Cheng Yuan also looked at the two of them.

"Ah, Mr. Fang Zheng...something seems a little strange. No matter how I called out, there was no response..."

"oh?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"I'm going to ask Mr. Maori for the master key."

After saying this, Mr. Chengyuan hurried downstairs, and Fang Zheng and Xiao Ai looked at each other as they watched him leave.

“No way…”

"It should be the one you think."

Fang Zheng shrugged and yawned.

"I guessed something would happen. Just wait."

“…”

This time, Xiao Ai did not speak, but stood quietly by the side. Then, he saw Mr. Cheng Yuan, who was sweating profusely, come back again, and then use the master key to open the door, but... the door was locked from the inside with a safety lock!

"Chizuru? Chizuru, are you there? Answer me!"

Mr. Chengyuan knocked hard on the door and shouted loudly again, but there was still no response from inside.

"let me."

At this time Fang Zheng also came over and signaled Mr. Cheng Yuan to step back. Then he kicked the door hard.

"Bang!!"

With a loud bang, the door was kicked open, and Fang Zheng walked into the room and looked inside - then he saw the body of Bizen Chizuru who had hanged herself from the ceiling.

Hmm...it really is a routine.

"Chizuru!"

At this time, Mr. Cheng Yuan also rushed into the room. Seeing Bizen Chizuru hanging from the ceiling, he was also shocked. Fang Zheng walked forward and stretched out his hand to feel Bizen Chizuru's pulse and neck.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shiromoto, she's dead."

“How could it be…”

Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Mr. Cheng Yuan took two steps back and sat down on the ground.

"Hey, what happened?"

At this time, Kogoro Mouri, Conan and the president who heard the noise also ran up. When they saw the body of Chizuru Bizen in the room, they were also speechless.

"Anyway, call the police first."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng took out his cell phone.

Although it is a little different from what I expected, but... a routine is just a routine after all.

After Fang Zheng called the police, the police arrived soon and began to investigate the scene and conduct an autopsy. The autopsy results showed that the man died of compression of the neck. Judging from this point of view, it must have been suicide.

Fang Zheng also revealed his identity and told the criminal police in charge of the investigation what happened.

"Do you think it was suicide or homicide?"

After Fang Zheng finished explaining the situation, Xiao Ai also came over and asked in confusion, while Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders.

"It's definitely a homicide disguised as a suicide. Why don't we guess who the murderer is?"

"Do you even need to guess? You should already know the murderer."

Xiao Ai also knew Fang Zheng's superb ability to analyze micro-expressions, so she said this, but Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders.

"If the murderer was here, I would have definitely seen through it, but unfortunately the murderer is not here."

"Why?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ai was stunned for a moment.

"Isn't it Mr. Shiromoto? I thought he couldn't stand his wife's cruelty, so he killed her."

"There is indeed such a motive, but unfortunately I guessed wrong."

Fang Zheng shook his head. When the body was first discovered, Fang Zheng also observed Mr. Cheng Yuan's expression. His shock and grief at that time were real, not fake. Moreover, if it was really the criminal, when the body was discovered, he would always unconsciously show joy, nervousness or worry, but he did not have such a reaction at all.

It's not just him, the president who came up later was the same.

Therefore, Fang Zheng can confidently say that the criminal is not among us!
