Conan: I’m really not Tokyo Monster Story

"It's okay now."

Sano locked the door: "Are you going or not?"

"Go! Go! Go!"

…

Lunch break.

Sano received a text message from Kyogoku.

"Senior, I'm going back to Neon."

...Why does this text message seem familiar?

Sano thought for a while, oh, it seems that there are quite a lot of people returning to China these days.

"so what?"

"...I'm in Gunma County now, and I want to ask senior for help when Sonoko will come here, because she sent me a very strange text message, but senior, please don't tell me. I asked her."

Sano twitched his chopsticks.

"So, you have returned to China a long time ago, and it was because of an inexplicable and unclear text message. As a result, you returned to China. It didn't matter if you didn't contact me immediately. But now you contact me because you can't understand the text message, and Or do you want to cheat directly and get the answer through me?"

Looking at the text messages Sano sent back, they were as dense as a composition.

Kyogoku was really silent for a while on the other end.

After a while, he cautiously replied.

"Senior, are you angry?"

"Oh, please don't. How dare I? It's normal for you to keep your master busy."

Sano grinned, shaking his legs, and relying on his hand speed, he responded in a strange way.

Looking at Kyogoku Makoto on the other end, he kept saying "The other party is typing..." and failed to reply even a dozen times. Sano's grin became even wider.

The little girl sitting opposite him blinked in confusion.

How can a person laugh so evilly?

...Of course, Sano wasn't really angry. He wasn't that jealous at all.

Secondly, even if Sano is jealous, he shouldn't be really jealous towards Kyogoku.

Even if it were replaced by Reina Mizuna, there was still a slight possibility.

Not to mention that given Kyogoku's true temperament and condition, this is a normal phenomenon.

Kyogoku is really busy abroad.

Even the relationship with Suzuki Sonoko is not very close.

Suzuki Sonoko often complained about this.

Occasionally I go back to my country, mostly for Suzuki Sonoko.

Naturally, the first thing to look at is to see Suzuki Sonoko first, and then other things.

So even if Kyogoku really sent a text message or called Sano within a few days after returning home, there was no guarantee when he would see her again.

Why waste that energy?

In terms of temperament - it took so long after Sano came to this world to receive Kyogoku's letter, and the number of times the two contacted him after that.

That's enough to tell.

The reason why Sano said that was because he had nothing to do and had some fun with Kyogoku Makoto.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. What message did Yuanzi send you? Can you show it to me?"

"……Can."

Before the relieved Kyogoku could actually send the text message, Sano received another text message from Suzuki Sonoko - "Senior, do you want to go to Gunma to see the maple leaves together?"

Gunma?

Sano quickly sent a text message to Kyogoku: "Can you see the maple leaves?"

"You can see, what's wrong, senior?"

"Then it'll be fine, just wait there obediently."

After returning to Kyogoku, Sano returned to Suzuki Sonoko - of course the answer was rejection.

Although Sano is not too disgusted with dog food.

It can be said that I went all the way to Qunma to eat dog food.

hehe.

Take a shower and go to bed early.

As a result, the next second, Sano received the task.

[Please ensure the survival of the mission target within the mission time limit. You will receive 100 strengthening points upon completion. The remaining time of the mission is - 47:59:59].

I pulled out the map and took a look, there were three in total.

Well, Suzuki Sonoko, plus Mao Lilan and the God of Plague, the three are just right.

Okay, you still have to make a trip.

But it's reasonable.

After all, the equipment I just acquired really matches Kyogoku.

Sano picked up the bowl and ate the noodles in one gulp: "I'm leaving first. Something really happened this time. After you finish eating, go home alone."

"Haude Shushu."

The little girl replied inarticulately.

Because Sano had just rejected Suzuki Sonoko's invitation, and now he was going back and shamelessly approaching her, which felt a little weird.

So Sano doesn't plan to team up with those three guys.

Anyway, I have plenty of time, and I still have eyeliners to follow, so there’s no need to panic.

So the time came to the next day.

A hotel at the foot of a mountain in Gunma Prefecture.

"Master, we have found the black man. He has pitched a tent in the mountain to live in. In addition, Conan's three guys are almost at the hotel."

"Well, keep staring... You don't need to keep an eye on the black guy, just keep an eye on those three."

"yes."

Sano retracted his mind and turned his attention to the TV set that came with the hotel - what was playing on it was a recently popular love TV series.

Judging from Sano's situation in the hotel, he listened to the gossip of the guests.

It seems that this TV series was filmed on this nearby mountain.

This has led to many young girls trying to imitate its famous scenes.

Suzuki Sonoko was probably inspired by this thing, so she sent a text message to Kyogoku and came all the way from Tokyo.

The routine is a bit old, but the actors' appearance and acting skills are both online and offline.

So-so.

Sano crossed his legs and caught up with the drama.

Not long after, Conan and the other two arrived at the hotel, checked in and put down their luggage.

Just prepare to go into the mountains together.

Um?

Conan suddenly turned around and looked at Sano, who was sitting at the door of the restaurant with only half of his body exposed. At this moment, he was wearing a Black Death vest without a special attack uniform, and he had not yet put on a passerby hat.

Why do you feel like this person looks familiar?

"Conan, what are you doing? Come on, let's go see the maple leaves."

Hearing Mao Lilan's urging, Conan didn't have time to think too much and responded and followed.

Sano glanced sideways at Conan's back.

I don’t know if Conan still remembers his face.

Sano recalled his vague memory.

One of the few times Black Death Vest showed his face was probably in front of Conan, right?

Although Sano was not dying as a black man at that time, he just showed this face.

As for whether showing his face like this would bring any trouble to Sano.

Sano didn't bother to think about it, so he just thought of it as having fun.

What a big deal.

As a result, before dinner time, Sano received new information from Daikoku.

To be precise, it was in Dahei's chatty chatter all afternoon.

Sano finally heard something that concerned him.

That is, in the mountain, besides Kyogoku, there are others hiding.

There were a lot of people, dozens of them, and they all had weapons on their bodies. They looked fierce, and they didn't look like a group of good people... Sano raised his eyebrows.

"Are these people near Conan?"

"That's not true. It's quite far away...but it's not too far. It's still risky."

Sano touched his chin: "No, what I care about right now is not the issue of risk."

"What's the problem?"

"The problem is, I obviously just asked you to keep an eye on Conan and a few others. How did you notice someone so far away from them...You kid went AWOL?"

Big black:"……"

"I'm not, I didn't, Master, don't talk nonsense!"

"I heard the crows in the forest that I had greeted before, and there was something not right, so I asked about it and made sure there was indeed a problem before I went over to take a look!"

"This is normal procedure, Master, you can't say that to me!"

Listening to Dahei's angry and slightly aggrieved explanation, Sano raised his eyebrows again and asked: "You just said you had greeted the crows in the forest before. What do you mean? Can you communicate with them normally? ?”

"Hmm... I don't know how to call it normal communication, but it shouldn't be considered normal communication. I can only say... it's close to the situation between a normal person and a pet?"

Sano said "hmm" thoughtfully.

So, with some training, it seems that a crow army is really possible?

Then do you need to help?
