Conan's explanation later confirmed Mitsuyu's idea.
“Inspector Megure asked Dr. Agasa about the case yesterday,” Conan explained.
"After understanding the details of the case, Inspector Megure asked Dr. Agasa to take a few of us to the Metropolitan Police Department in the next couple of days to make a statement."
"I knew it..." Guangyou felt his composure crumbling a little.
Last night he had planned it out: if conditions allowed tonight, he would take Xiao Ai to the top of the mountain to enjoy the scenery.
He can then pitch his tent on the mountaintop platform and camp there.
Unexpectedly, he still had to give a statement.
Of course, he could choose to stay here and go to the Metropolitan Police Department to give a statement another day.
but...
Unfortunately, there are no bus stops or other transportation facilities nearby.
If you want to go back, you can only take bus number 11, first to a distant town, and then take another bus back to Beika Town.
This is not only somewhat troublesome, but it's also quite a distance from here to the town; it's not close at all, and it could take several hours to walk there.
He didn't mind at all; he just treated it as exercise.
However, he is not alone now.
If he chooses to stay here, then it means Ai is here too.
He wouldn't let Ai accompany him for hours just because of his own plans.
Wouldn't it be better to do something else with this time?
Watching movies, eating out, shopping...
Don't these smell good?
For Guangyou, the choice between walking for hours to get back for the sake of the so-called plan, or saving that time to do other things, is not difficult.
I'd definitely choose the latter.
If they're there to see some beautiful scenery, then spending a few hours is worthwhile.
But for the sake of that plan, Guangyou felt it wasn't worth it to not take a ride and instead spend several hours walking back.
The scenery here is okay, but that's about it.
Even from the mountaintop, all you can say is that it offers a wide view and is a great spot to watch fireworks; that's about it.
Compared to famous tourist attractions such as Kiyomizu-dera Temple in Kyoto, Mount Fuji, and the flower fields of Hokkaido, it still falls short.
What's more, there are no fireworks tonight.
The only thing left is that patch of starry sky that isn't too polluted.
Moreover, the sky is affected by the weather, so he might not be able to see it tonight.
It seems the plan will have to be postponed.
“Alright then.” Guangyou thought for a moment and accepted the fact. “I’ll pack up the tent after breakfast.”
"Hmm." Conan nodded, sniffed, and said, "Now that you've finished informing them, go wash up first, I'll go boil some water."
I don't know who went out last night, but when they came back, the tent door wasn't closed properly.
As a result, when he woke up in the morning, his nose felt stuffy and he had some signs of a cold.
Fortunately, they always bring some commonly used medicines when they go camping.
Sniffing, Conan prepared to start a fire to boil water.
...
To save time and for convenience, everyone kept their breakfast simple.
I soaked several buckets of noodles in boiling water. For people like me who don't eat enough noodles, I added some snacks, like bread.
This is what everyone had for breakfast this morning.
After breakfast, everyone started packing their things.
"What a pity, it's a tent I just bought." Guangyou complained as he packed up the tent. "I didn't expect it to gather dust after only one day of use."
Their original camping plan was for about three days, but the exact duration would depend on the situation. For example, if there were unforeseen circumstances such as rain, the camping trip would end earlier.
Actually, before setting off, he and Professor Agasa had both checked the weather forecast.
The weather forecast says there will be no rain for the next two days, and rain is only possible on the third day.
Although weather forecasts are not 100% accurate, with the rapid development of technology, their accuracy is quite high.
There are virtually no mistakes; what Guangyou encountered before was all by chance.
In other words, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they can play for at least two days.
Unfortunately, an accident has occurred.
Guangyou originally thought he would buy a tent, use it for two days, and then let it gather dust.
Unexpectedly, the tent only lasted one day before it was gathering dust.
He bought the tent because he didn't want to share one with other people.
That would be too inconvenient, and his plan would be impossible to carry out.
Just like last night, if he had shared a tent with someone else, Ai wouldn't have fallen asleep in his arms like she did last night.
Moreover, he is not short of money. Even if he only needs it for two days, buying a tent as a backup will be useful in the future, so it's not a loss.
But that's only if the plan goes smoothly, then it's not considered a loss.
Now his plans have fallen apart, and he only stayed for one day...
To be precise, he only stayed one night, and Guangyou immediately felt that he had lost out a little.
"Oh well, I guess I'll just consider it an advance purchase," Guangyou comforted himself. "I'll definitely need it later, and it was on sale when I bought it."
To simplify this sentence, what Guangyou meant was "this was a worthwhile investment".
After finding some solace in his own heart, Guangyou stopped thinking about it and continued busy packing up the tents.
With Ai's help, Kousuke spent a few minutes packing up the tent and putting it in the Beetle's trunk.
With the help of Ayumi and the others, the other two tents were quickly put into the trunk.
