Mushrooms usually grow in spring and autumn, and prefer cool, humid and cool weather. Now it is the end of summer, and the temperature on the mountain is lower than at the foot of the mountain. It is already cool in autumn. Mushrooms are hidden by the roots of trees, not many, and small in size.
But for ten-year-old children, the real fun is the process of finding mushrooms.
The trunks of the trees in the forest are not thick, but they are dense. The leaves are connected one by one and even achieve the effect of blocking out the sun. Occasionally, a few rays of sunlight pour out from the gaps between the leaves, casting golden spots on the stones.
"It's so beautiful," Suzuki Sonoko said in surprise while squatting beside the golden stone. She lowered her head to poke the tender green sprouts that had just grown beside the stone. The small light point jumped from the stone to the sunflower-colored headband with her movement, "Right, Kirito."
"Uh... um," the boy who was staring at the bright white light in his field of vision was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He hesitated and nodded in response.
"Sonoko - Kirito -" Following Kudo Shinichi's "reasoning", mushrooms were finally found under the tree. Maori Ran excitedly waved and called the other two friends over, "Shinichi found mushrooms -"
Hearing this, Suzuki Sonoko jumped up instantly. She pulled Asuka Kiri to run towards Maori Ran, humming "Mushrooms, Mushrooms" in a strange tune.
Infected by this emotion, he also smiled a little, and the dimple on the left cheek was faintly visible.
"There are still a lot here," Mao Lilan turned her head to look at the trees on the other side and said in surprise. She pointed her finger under the surrounding trees, "This area is full!"
"Okay!" Suzuki Sonoko rolled up one side of her sleeve and made a gesture full of energy, "Fill the basket!"
Kudo Shinichi held the basket and showed half-moon eyes.
It's really energetic.
Asuka Kiri didn't say anything. He walked a little to the side and locked onto a few mushrooms under a tree not far away. Those mushrooms were much larger than the pile found by Mao Lilan.
What color are they?
He picked one up to study it. Kudo Shinichi had just said that poisonous mushrooms would grow here. This one...
if it was a poisonous mushroom, it should be colorful, with spots on it. Asuka Mizuki thought about it carefully. He could tell the spots by himself.
The color of this one was a little darker than the previous one, but the roots of those mushrooms were also this color because of the soil. And there were no spots.
Asuka Mizuki looked up and down at this poor mushroom that had been pulled out by the roots for a long time as if he were studying a math problem, and finally decided to throw it into the basket.
"This is a poisonous mushroom!"
The girl's voice suddenly rang from behind his ear, scaring him so much that his whole body trembled. He even had the illusion that his hair was blown up by fear.
Ran Mouri stood behind her, the basket in her hand was already half filled with mushrooms, her expression looked very serious, her free hand even resting on her waist, a somewhat strong posture.
She has always been gentle, much like the Yamato Nadeshiko type most admired in Japan, and occasionally shows her strong side in front of her friends, usually because Kudo Shinichi has done something dangerous that disregards his own safety.
"Did you listen carefully to what Brother Asari said just now?! Do you know that this is very dangerous?!" Ran Mouri said angrily, her fist already raised, "If we are not here, and you eat this again, your life may be in danger!"
It's not that serious, Kudo Shinichi folded his hands behind his head and complained, his eyes fell on the red mushrooms in the basket.
Wait... that guy is not...
As the target of a lesson, the first thing that Asuka Kiri thought of was not that she could hit the poisonous mushroom perfectly, but Maori Ran's attitude.
Ten years old is basically no longer the age where you can do whatever you want according to your mood. The rules of the adult world have already affected these children. Like most people, Maori Ran has always been gentle outside and has the liveliness and cuteness of a girl, but some small awkwardness and unusual personality are only shown to close friends.
In this case, I am also a very close friend.
"Are you listening?" Seeing that the other party had not responded, Mao Lilan squatted beside him a little disappointedly and picked up the only mushroom in his basket. "Look, there are many ways to distinguish poisonous mushrooms. The most important thing is color..."
Mao Lilan paused, and the word was stuck in her mouth. Suzuki Sonoko also reacted and opened her eyes wide.
The white-haired boy picked up the stationery with strange color matching, and he must choose the colored pencils with each color marked. He did not respond to the colorful sunset and would not actively echo their praise for the scenery...
Countless pictures flashed in the girl's mind, and she stuttered and couldn't speak for a while.
It's over!
Kudo Shinichi changed his relaxed posture just now, and his right hand clenched into a fist involuntarily. The little detective who had not told the two girls about this, because he thought Asuka Kiri didn't want any special treatment and that they should have discovered it themselves or Asuka Kiri herself told them, suddenly regretted it.
He was about to say something to save the situation, but the girl with the headband spoke first.
"It's very convenient to tell by shape," said Suzuki Sonoko, and she hid her left hand behind and gently pulled the back of Mouri Ran's hair to remind her friend to come back to her senses.
"That's right," the awakened girl looked at the bright red mushroom in front of her and pointed to the location of the mushroom umbrella, "Xiao Wu, look, here..."
Fei Niao Wu has the same furry and sensitive intuition as an animal. He obviously felt the cautiousness behind Mao Lilan's words. It was not something else, just an apology for his speechlessness just now, and a kind of... His eyebrows kept raising, and he had a somewhat relaxed expression.
Kudo Shinichi, who had been paying attention to this place, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his expression. Looking at the two girls who were chattering and teaching him to identify mushrooms and regaining their vitality, the corners of his mouth rose again and he walked towards the few people, "We have picked all the mushrooms here, let's continue to look for them somewhere else."
"Okay--"
Tsukiyama Asari stopped his hand that was about to put the fish into the bucket. The desire for life made the fish suddenly struggle violently, breaking away from the hand that had not been holding the fish's tail tightly, throwing itself back into the stream and running away in a hurry.
[What are you thinking about? ]
"Thinking about Xiao Wu," he hung the bait again and threw the fishing line into the water, "He has also made a good friend who can be trusted. '
Tsukiyama heard the system hum and laugh. The ending sound was a little trembling because of the mechanical texture, which made it sound weird.
Several children walked towards the depths of the forest with laughter. There were not many people camping today, and the newly grown mushrooms were basically collected by the four of them.
"Hey--" Kudo Shinichi leaned against a tree and shouted to the two girls who were still full of energy, and Asuka Mizuki who was carrying a basket for them, "We have enough mushrooms, right?"
There was probably still a big basket left.
"It's almost time," Mao Lilan looked at her watch, then at a few mushrooms not far ahead, with a somewhat tangled expression.
"Then let's go back after picking the ones ahead," Asuka Mizuki looked in the direction of her gaze and said with understanding.
That guy, Kudo Shinichi, silently moved his eyes from the basket full of mushrooms to the white-haired boy, "You are too used to them..."
"What's the matter, just pick a few more," said Mao Lilan, "Let's go!"
"Yeah!"
Suzuki Sonoko followed actively. She stood by the tree and saw Mao Lilan squatting and reaching out to the mushrooms at her feet. She subconsciously took a step back.
"Ah!"
Knowing that there was a hillside behind her, she took a small step back and couldn't even touch the edge. However, she happened to step on a mossy stone and her whole foot slipped and fell backwards.
"Sonoko--"
Asuka unconsciously grabbed her, but underestimated her own strength. This vest was very weak due to long-term malnutrition. Not only did it fail to hold Suzuki Sonoko, but it was also dragged down by her.
Kudo Shinichi ran over in a few steps and looked down, but his sight was completely blocked by the dense branches and leaves. He had no idea what happened to the two guys.
This is bad.
