Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 103: Trapped on a Rainy Night

In midsummer, Izu was in the midst of a tourist boom. I was supposed to relax, but I was involved in the incident in just one day. I don't know if it was a coincidence or something. Anyway, Gaocheng's planned vacation was a waste of time.

After leaving the police station, he didn't ask police officer Henggou to send him off, but rented a car temporarily to attend this Sherlock Holmes fan gathering.

These people seem to have a special liking for villas in the deep mountains, and the location is in a deserted suburb with no people. If they don't have a map, it would be difficult to find the way.

But it's nothing, the headache is...

In the evening, under the pattering rain, Gao Cheng drove a car on the winding road in the mountains and forests. He looked helplessly at Miss Yuanzi who was sitting next to him: "Why do you want to come here too?"

"Since there is a party, how can you not bring me?" Yuanzi looked forward to it with an intoxicated look on his face, "I must find a handsome guy and have a romantic encounter with him."

Gao Cheng rolled his eyes: "It's better not to have any hope. You also know that Kudo Shinichi is a Sherlock Holmes fan. Think about a group of Kudos meeting..."

"Hmph, disappointment," Yuanzi murmured, "how do you know there won't be handsome and romantic handsome guys?"

"If you want to find such a handsome guy, Izu is more likely?" Gao Cheng said confusedly, "Why do you have to come with me? You also left Xiaolan and the others behind..."

"Don't worry, I let my elder sister take care of Xiaolan and Conan, there is no problem, the key is that every time I am with Xiaolan, the handsome guy who strikes up a conversation is looking for her..." Yuanzi puffed up seriously, "So I just want to change the way, maybe this Sherlock Holmes fan party is the starting point of my love."

Gao Cheng really wanted to say that he was thinking too much. Sonoko was doomed to be single before meeting Kyogokuma. To some extent, he was the same as him, but he didn't know when he would be able to get rid of being single.

I don't have any childhood sweethearts and no one I particularly like. Is there going to be a blind date in the future?

Shaking his head violently, Gao Cheng changed the subject and asked, "Speaking of which, now that Tetsuji Tomizawa is gone, what will become of the Fuze Consortium in the future?"

"I don't know, Brother Xiong San will probably inherit the family business." Yuanzi didn't want to find a partner anymore, and recalled, "I heard from my sister that Brother Xiong San was hit hard this time, and he seems to have matured a lot."

"It's no wonder. After all, my father passed away and my elder brother was arrested again. I don't think it will be easy in the future."

"Our family will help too."

Yuanzi said something affirmatively, and suddenly looked at Gao Chengdao curiously: "By the way, you said before that you also had a hard time, what's going on?"

"Well, it's really nothing," Gao Cheng said with a smile, "It's just that the office didn't have much money or business at first, but it's much better now."

"Boom!" In the night, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there were faint thunderstorms.

"It's raining harder and harder, will it be okay?" Yuanzi looked worriedly at the dark forest outside, and couldn't help but shrink back.

"What can happen?" Gao Cheng focused on driving, "I will be careful when I get to the edge of the cliff..."

"Huh? Kido, when did you get your driver's license?"

"A few days ago."

"A few days ago?!" Yuanzi's voice suddenly became louder.

"Is there any problem? I drive very safely, absolutely nothing will happen..."

Gao Cheng is very confident in himself. After all, he has two years of car driving experience. Although he is not an experienced driver, he is not a novice either.

After a fork in the road, the car suddenly misfired and stopped by the roadside guardrail.

"What's wrong?" Sonoko asked nervously.

"Broken down, it seems to be an engine problem."

Gao Cheng got out of the car to check under the heavy rain with a look of displeasure, and soon had to return to the car again, opened his mouth and smiled lightly when facing Yuanzi's gaze: "This is a non-human factor and has nothing to do with the driver. It's just a small thing. Accident."

Yuanzi couldn't laugh at all, and said with a crying face, "Then what should we do now?"

"I'll contact Mr. Fujisawa first..."

Gao Cheng took out his mobile phone,

But found no signal at all.

"No, we might have to stay in the car all night."

"Are we sleeping in the car?" Sonoko blushed.

"I can't help it. When I came here, the gas station was two or three kilometers away from here. I can't ask for help until the rain stops tomorrow."

Gao Cheng looked at the map, and then looked around the car.

"There seems to be a villa over there, I'll go see if there is anyone..."

"Ah?" When Yuanzi realized it in a daze, Gao Cheng had already rushed into the forest against the heavy rain.

The villa looks a bit old, and it is located in the dense forest. If it weren't for the faint lights, it would be hard to find.

Gao Cheng ran up and saw a red car parked in front of the villa, and there were indeed lights on in the villa, so he hurried forward and rang the doorbell.

"jingle!"

"What's the matter?" A pretty young woman looked at Gao Cheng through the glass window suspiciously.

"Sorry to bother you so late..." Gao Cheng saw the woman and explained in a daze, "My car won't start anymore, can I borrow the phone?"

Seeing the distressed expression on the woman's face, Gao Cheng hurriedly said, "The car is right next to me, and my friend is still waiting in the car...I'm not a bad person, I don't know if you've watched TV, but I'm a famous name recently. Detective, Takasei Kido, can you help me?"

"Detective?"

The woman looked at Gao Cheng carefully, and she felt familiar, so she opened the door after thinking about it: "Come in."

"Sorry to trouble you."

Gao Cheng walked into the hall of the villa, saw a big dog following the woman, and asked curiously, "Are you the only one living here?"

"Hmm." The woman seemed not used to talking to strangers, she looked outside the door and said, "That is your friend?"

"Eh?" Gao Cheng turned his head and found that Yuanzi also rushed over under the rain.

"Yuanzi, why are you here?"

"I'm afraid of being alone!"

Yuanzi replied angrily, and when he noticed the hostess of the villa next to him, the corners of his eyes twitched: "She is..."

"She is the master here." Gao Cheng nodded apologetically to the woman, and hurriedly contacted Fujisawa with the villa phone.

"Yes, the car turned off halfway, can you come and pick us up? Wait until tomorrow? Ah... well, it's really not safe to drive in such heavy rain."

"How is it?" Seeing Gao Cheng hang up the phone, Yuanzi asked concerned, "Can't they come?"

"Well, it is said that the rain is too heavy, and the sky is dark and dangerous."

"Let me just say, you shouldn't be driving in the mountains in this kind of weather," Yuanzi looked as if he had expected it, "Let's go, just spend the night in the car..."

"Well," the hostess called Gao Cheng hesitantly, "I...to be honest, I called the police earlier...because of the heavy rain, they said there was nothing I could do..."

"What's wrong?" Gao Cheng saw that the hostess seemed to have something to say.
