The road in the distance stretches out, and the dawn is hidden in the mist in the mountains, with the blessing of dew in the haze and light yellow in the green.

An ordinary small car sped along the deserted road, breaking through the morning mist with tiny water droplets.

"What a pity!" Ayumi, who was sitting in Okiya Subaru's car, stamped her feet angrily, her tone low and somewhat unwilling, "We finally got to go camping with Brother Ichi!"

"Now they are all bathing in the hot spring——"

The girl's eyes were full of disappointment, and her beautiful blue eyes even had tears in them. "Brother Yi is so pitiful..."

"Yeah, the weather forecast said it would be sunny today!" Yuan Tai angrily hit the seat with his fist, "But we have to go home because of a murder case--!"

Mitsuhiko also sighed. Compared with the other two children, he seemed calmer, but the disappointment on his face was also obvious.

The young detectives, whose eyes light up whenever they see a murder case and who are extremely obsessed with the truth, now have no excitement at all about reasoning out a complete case on their own for the first time. Instead, they all hang their heads in despair.

Kudo sat in the passenger seat, the trees on both sides of the road reflected in his blue eyes. The dawn, full of vitality and energy, appeared in his eyes, making the dark blue and silent sea full of vitality.

He listened to the three little kids in the back seat complaining in their self-righteous voices about the failed camping trip, and their concern for him was evident in every word.

Very pure emotion.

Kudo couldn't help but curl his lips slightly, and bright, hidden joy quietly sprouted in the cracks.

Subaru Okiya noticed his good mood and asked with a smile, "Even though the camping trip was unsuccessful, are you so happy about it, Hajime?"

Although he was sharp, Lu Qi actually preferred the dog that was staring at him.

So he wanted to just say "Pooh" and throw the truth out.

But he is Kudo now, and it is impossible for Kudo to say it, so he just smiled faintly, and then pursed his lips to restrain his smile.

But both his eyes and eyebrows were filled with smiles.

The three little ones were also attracted by Okiya Subaru's words and stopped discussing. They rushed forward one by one, wanting to see the boy's expression.

Kudo pursed his lips and reminded him in a serious tone, "Hurry up and sit down. It's too dangerous to be in the car now."

The young man's vision was originally cast far into the dawn. The narrow ocean in his eyes and the vast sky outside were intertwined to show endless vitality.

But when he said this, he paused, moved his eyes to the rearview mirror, stared at the three little ones who had to sit back in the back seat in frustration because of the reminder, and suddenly said, "Let's go camping together next time."

The words were spoken so softly that the three little ones were unable to react at first.

But a few seconds later, it was like a bomb dropped into the water, causing huge waves.

"Hey hey hey!! Really?!" The three children suddenly sat up straight, their tone extremely excited.

Kudo nodded, then remembered that the children couldn't see, so he responded.

The children shook off their frustration and started to chatter excitedly about the next time.

They had heard Kudo say that he didn't like camping, so they cherished this "only" camping trip and were frustrated by the failure.

All this happened because of "the only time". Now that they were told that there would be a next time, the children cheered happily without even thinking about why there would suddenly be a next time.
