The meal was alright; the taste was fairly authentic.
Guangyou was very satisfied with the Peking duck he had ordered.
The waiter explained that the chef who prepared the duck was someone the owner had hired from a long-established restaurant in Beijing.
The roast duck was already sliced when it was served; apparently, it was 108 slices.
Along with the roast duck, lotus leaf pancakes, sweet bean sauce, and side dishes such as cucumber strips and radish strips were served, making it quite a generous spread.
However, whether it was 108 pieces or something like fruitwood roasting, Guangyou had no way of knowing.
But Guangyou could tell that the duck meat wasn't dry, the slices were uniform in size, and the texture was crispy, fragrant, and tender.
The people present ate with great relish, especially Genta, whose mouth was covered in oil.
Of course, while eating, Guangyou also made sure to roll up a few lotus leaf pancakes containing roast duck and side dishes and put them in the takeout box.
The name of Xiong Da—no, that man—was also revealed during the chat.
The man's name was Shimojo Noboru.
Shimojo Noboru, while drinking, glanced at a rather plump man sitting next to him and said, "Yuta, you're too late."
The fat man's name is Yoshizawa Yuta, and he had met Ran and the others earlier today.
Shimojo Noboru's face already showed that he was slightly drunk.
"What's wrong? Shinji didn't come with you. Didn't he swear he was going to give him a piece of his mind?"
Yuta explained, "He has to go to his father's grave first, so he'll be there a little later."
Suddenly, after taking a sip of his drink, Shimojo Noboru turned to Ran and the others and said, "Let's not mince words. Today is the anniversary of the deaths of our fathers."
"Are you family?"
"No, it's just that several of our fathers went out to sea on the same ship and then the accident happened."
All of them were fishermen, as were their fathers; they had a deep connection with the sea throughout their lives.
The sea brought them wealth, but it also cost them their father.
You could tell from the expressions on their faces that they were still feeling somewhat heavy-hearted.
However, their willingness to admit this suggests that they seem to have taken it to heart.
"What does your father's death have to do with us? You're really trying to get on our good side."
Guangyou kept eating his food without stopping.
By the time they finished talking, most people had already finished eating, including Guangyou.
The food at Dongfenglou is quite good, but the portions aren't very large.
But all hotel food is like this, I'm used to it.
"Sister Ran, I'm going back to my room to check on Ai."
"Oh, okay."
After saying hello, Guangyou carried the insulated bag back to his room.
"Hey, Ai, you're awake?"
Kōyū, who had just entered, looked at Ai sitting on the sofa and said with a smile.
"Yes, I feel much better after resting for a while."
Guangyou took the food out of the insulated bag one by one and placed it on the table.
"This is a packed meal for you, it's still hot, eat it as soon as possible."
Kōyū handed the chopsticks to Ai.
Thanks.
Xiao Ai took the chopsticks and thanked them.
"No need to thank me."
Guangyou sat to one side and turned on the TV.
The TV program was finally changed from that hypnosis program to another program.
However, Guangyou wasn't interested and simply changed the channel.
On the hotel TV, Guangyou even found a few Chinese TV stations, though there were only a handful, but it was better than nothing.
"Animal World?"
Ai turned her head and looked at Kyouyu with a puzzled expression.
Kwang-woo coughed awkwardly, "Yeah, it looks pretty good."
What's awkward isn't anything else, but the narration in the "Animal World" program on TV.
Spring has arrived, all things are reviving, and it's time for the animals on the vast grasslands to mate...
They were speaking Chinese, which Ai couldn't understand, but Kousuke still switched to another machine to avoid an awkward situation later on.
When it comes to American movies, the special effects are, needless to say, quite awkward to Guangyou, but of course, they are already quite good for this era.
Kōyū watched the movie, occasionally glancing at Ai-chan who was eating.
Ai ate very slowly, occasionally glancing up at the movie before continuing to eat.
Time passed by, but as time went by, Ai suddenly felt a little strange.
"Where is the great detective?"
Guangyou waved his hand: "Either something bad has happened again, and someone has died again."
"His voice changer is still here."
Kōyū glanced at the bow-shaped voice changer on the corner of the table, got up, picked it up, and said to Ai, "I'll go deliver it. You can rest a little longer."
Ai still had a small portion of her meal left, and the movie was almost over, so Kōyū got up to stretch his muscles.
Upon arriving at the front desk, Guangyou asked with a smile, "Sister, has something happened again nearby? I just saw a lot of police officers come here."
The staff member was a young woman, presumably a college student looking for a part-time job.
"Yes, I just heard that a man nearby seems to have died, and a lot of police have come. But little brother, don't go near the beach, it's not a place for children," the young woman kindly reminded him.
Guangyou smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll be going now! Bye-bye."
The young woman smiled and responded, then sat down and continued her work.
After leaving the hotel, Guangyou headed straight for the beach.
There were no couples on the beach at night; they had moved to another spot.
At first glance, only that small group of people stood out on the beach.
As he walked over, Conan was rummaging through his pockets, seemingly looking for something.
