Chapter 35 Who exactly is the old pervert?
The group of people who were resting in the pavilion suddenly heard a scream. When they rushed over, they found that the college student had fallen off the cliff.
"Let's go down and take a look!" After some discussion, Kogoro Mouri suggested.
Bai Yexiu made an OK sign and jumped off the cliff in front of everyone.
A second scream came from the cliff.
"Ryuzawa!" Conan shouted in panic towards the bottom of the cliff, but he did not see Ryuzawa's body at the bottom.
Just as Conan was wondering what was going on, Bai Yexiu's voice came from below: "I'm not dead."
Conan lay down again and looked down the cliff. He saw Ryuzawa holding stick-like objects and climbing down the mountainside. He soon reached the body.
"This kid really doesn't know what's good for him," Kogoro Mori muttered, leading the group around to the bottom of the cliff.
"It seems he died on the spot," Kogoro Mouri said after examining him.
Everyone was seriously examining the scene, while Bai Yexiu was taking random photos. In his view, everything was something he could slack off on.
Bai Yexiu regretted not bringing the game console Pei Nuo had made for him, otherwise he wouldn't be taking pictures here.
……
At the rest stop, the silver fox, disguised as a forest ranger, gave everyone a fright.
Bai Yexiu looked at the silver fox, whose appearance clearly didn't resemble that of a good person, and was thankful that he hadn't developed a fierce look because of the blood on his hands. As the saying goes, appearance reflects the heart.
If you really think about it, the blood on my hands is no less than Silver Fox's.
At the dinner table, Bai Yexiu ate his meal in silence, not participating in the discussion. He simply chatted with Pei Nuo by exchanging emails on his phone while eating.
Conan glanced at Bai Yexiu and suddenly remembered that there seemed to be no signal in the mountains.
"Ryuzawa," Conan tugged at Byakuya's sleeve and asked quietly, "Isn't there no signal in the mountains?"
"Idiot, I was just playing around with it because I was bored. I know the emails won't go through." Bai Yexiu turned off his phone. This was a phone Pei Nuo had made for him; it could send emails and make calls without a signal—truly cutting-edge technology.
Is that all there is to it?
Conan didn't press the matter further and turned back to the group's discussion.
Bai Yexiu didn't want to participate in their discussion. Because everything they were doing was something Bai Yexiu had foreseen in advance, and knowing this plot was already a given, Bai Yexiu especially wanted to just sit on the sidelines and do nothing.
Maybe I'm just used to slacking off when doing tasks.
It was already very late, and everyone was sleeping on makeshift beds on the floor of the wooden cabin. But Bai Yexiu was still awake.
He was thinking about how to sneak away and hide the couple's backpack, since that was his real purpose for coming here.
Even though we're just relaxing, there are still some things we have to do.
Bai Yexiu got out of bed and slipped out to find a suitable place to hide his backpack.
With his night vision, Bai Yexiu quickly found a perfect spot. Behind the wooden house stood a towering tree, and beneath the tree was a hidden tree hollow, concealed by tall bushes and weeds.
On a night like this, it's unlikely that anyone around would notice this place, making it the best place for Bai Yexiu to temporarily store the stolen goods.
Throwing a backpack full of banknotes from in front of the cabin into the tree hole was not a difficult task for Bai Yexiu.
After completing his investigation, Bai Yexiu returned to his bed without anyone noticing, marveling at how seriously he, a slacker, had actually investigated the situation.
Not long after getting back into bed, Kogoro Mouri's loud snoring filled the room, even waking Conan up.
Then, as expected, the human figure outliner was discovered and escaped from the cabin.
Even a basic attack can miss the target's outline. No, not even a winery would hire you. You're a professional assassin, aren't you?
Bai Yexiu got up, complaining as he tried to minimize his presence, laying the groundwork for his actions later.
Bai Yexiu, who had run out with a group of people, heard a philosophical voice.
"Ugh... Ugh... Ugh—"
Bai Yexiu tried his best to suppress his laughter and went up to watch. It would be too disrespectful of him to laugh.
Just as everyone was frantically asking what was going on, a third scream of the day came from afar.
Everyone rushed back to the cabin in a great hurry.
This trip was truly full of ups and downs.
Bai Yexiu sighed as he ran.
Back inside the cabin, the group continued discussing the case of Kyoko Saegusa's death, while Byakuya Osamu remained a passive observer.
Bai Yexiu's phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket. Noticing the vibration, Bai Yexiu hid behind the crowd and turned on his phone.
[Did you get the money? —Gin]
[Not yet, give me a little more time, don't be so impatient, Qin-chan. — Jundu]
To be precise, Bai Yexiu hadn't had enough fun yet.
He wanted to scare Conan again, just like before, because he really wanted to see Conan's terrified and serious expression one more time.
As soon as he looked up, Bai Yexiu saw Ran Mouri and Conan hugging and demonstrating some kind of crime-solving method. Judging from Conan's flushed face, he was enjoying it.
Conan is obviously a pervert.
As the two separated, the barely noticeable Byakuya pulled Conan aside and whispered in his ear, "You seem to be enjoying this."
"No way..." Conan muttered, his face flushed, and pushed away Bai Yexiu, whose face was full of gossip.
"Listen to me," Bai Yexiu pulled Conan, who was blushing, closer and whispered in his ear, "You'll be taking a bath with your Ran-neechan in the future~"
Conan blushed, and steam seemed to be billowing from his head like an old-fashioned train.
"What are you thinking? How could this be..." Conan pushed Bai Yexiu away again, deciding to refuse to listen to all his nonsense.
But at the same time, his mind automatically conjured up a scene of him and Xiaolan scrubbing each other's backs in the bath—
Conan shook his head vigorously, desperately trying to dispel the scene that was automatically filling in his mind.
"Hey, Conan, why is your face so red? Do you have a fever?" Ran Mouri noticed Conan's flushed face, squatted down and touched Conan's forehead.
"No, Ran-neechan, I'm just a little feverish..." Conan blushed and made up an excuse, glancing at Bai Yexiu's subtle expression out of the corner of his eye.
It's all this guy's fault for telling me all this...
Bai Yexiu noticed Conan's gaze and winked at him playfully.
Conan turned his head away dismissively.
This guy Longze, instead of discussing the murder case, he's talking about this kind of thing with me. Seriously, who's the real pervert here?
