Corpse collector in Conan

Officer Sato looked at the store owner in front of him suspiciously, but the owner obviously didn't take it seriously.

At this time, another customer happened to come in, and the owner quickly greeted him, "Come back and have a rest."

Everyone looked back and saw a man with semi-long hair and a slightly sloppy look walking in.

The man did not respond to the manager's call. He just walked to the counter with a sullen face and knocked on the cabinet.

The manager understood and quickly took out the room key that he had kept for him. The man picked up the key and went upstairs without saying a word.

Suzuki Sonoko was almost hit by him. After she dodged hastily, she couldn't help but mutter to two classmates: "How rude! His face is so long, as if others owe him a few gold mines."

The store manager heard it but could only pretend he didn't hear it. He greeted the new guests with his unchanged smile: "Dinner is ready. You can dine in our garden restaurant. Although there are no flowers in winter, the snow scenery is pretty good."

"Garden Restaurant? Isn't it open-air?" Officer Shiratori looked outside the house, "Could it be..."

He was about to ask if it was too cold, but suddenly remembered that he could lend his coat to Officer Sato, so he closed his mouth and didn't say anything else.

The bald store manager saw his concerns and smiled, "I'll take you there to have a look."

Soon, the group followed him through the hotel and arrived at the hotel's famous experience project, the Garden Restaurant.

This is a wooden platform extending from the inn and next to the valley, with several simple dining tables on the platform. The walls of the valley below are as steep as cliffs, and a stream flows slowly at the bottom of the valley.

Looking across the valley, you can see a large area of ​​branches and bushes covered with ice crystals. The transparent and hard ice is illuminated by the sunlight, shining like diamonds.

"Wow!" The two high school girls who were just complaining about the cold looked at this kingdom of ice and snow and immediately forgot about the weather. Suzuki Sonoko praised sincerely, "This is a good place, let's eat here!"

…

After admiring the snow scene on the platform for a while, heavy snow soon began to fall from the sky.

As the temperature dropped, the group hunched their necks and returned to the hotel, planning to wait until the evening to see the weather before deciding whether to go out.

There was a fireplace and a TV in the hall. Jiang Xia and a few classmates sat on one of the sofas and picked up the remote control to change channels.

Vermouth hesitated for a moment, then happily blended in with a group of Teitan students as the school doctor of Teitan Junior High School.

However, happiness is always short-lived. Not long after, she caught a glimpse of a figure slipping in from the door out of the corner of her eye - Calvados had returned from the shooting range.

Vermouth: "..."

On the way to the hotel just now, she sent a message asking Calvados to control himself and pretend not to know her... This guy should do it.

As she observed secretly, Calvados did not come closer.

...But he didn't hide in the room and not come out as Vermouth said.

This opinionated bootlicker turned a corner and quietly came to the corner of the hall. Then, like a ghost, he looked over here quietly while drinking.

Vermouth: “……?”

…

The sky outside the hotel was gloomy and heavy snow was about to come.

The weather on TV was similar.

Amidst the lightning and thunder, a woman walked slowly along the corridor of the ancient castle. At this moment, a sharp dagger appeared in front of her—a man wearing a strange mask walked out from behind the statue and approached her step by step.

The woman stepped back in fear: "Who are you? Where did you come from?!"

The masked man laughed sinisterly and announced himself: "Czech Liber V."

With that, without further ado, he spun the blade, raised his hand sharply... and then was shot with the knife flying out of his hand.

The masked man covered his painful wrist and stepped back in panic: "Who?!"

"Heh." With a sneer, a handsome man in a white suit and with agile skills descended from the sky. He twirled the gun in his hand and blocked the woman. "Before asking this question, you should have guessed it - yes, I am the City Hunter, Mackerel Bandai."

"Wow!" Suzuki Sonoko and Mouri Ran exclaimed, looking impressed by his handsomeness.

No mistake, just one song, one post, one content, one look!

Fortunately, this annoying scene did not last too long: as soon as City Hunter made his grand appearance, the ending song started playing—the episode was over.

"Why do we have to be stuck in this place?" The two female high school students sighed sadly, and were also full of resentment towards the TV series.

But the TV show has ended, so they can only wait patiently for the next episode. A few people started chatting with the ending song.

Officer Sato is also following this TV series. Thinking of the ups and downs of the cases around her, she sighed in boredom: "Although the protagonist is handsome enough, I always feel that the plot is getting more and more boring."

"Yeah." Officer Shiratori originally thought that this TV series was interesting, but when he heard the first half of Officer Sato's comment, he immediately thought it was a bad show. "It relies on luck to solve cases every day. If you don't know, you might think it's some idol drama."

"I'm really sorry." A guest who just walked in couldn't stand it anymore. He took off his cap that was covering his face and gave Officer Shiratori a provocative smile. "It's a pity that no matter in the drama or in reality, my luck is always good. There's nothing I can do about it."

"?" After hearing this familiar voice, several people subconsciously turned their heads to look over.

The next moment, Mao Lilan recognized him and exclaimed in surprise: "City Hunter!"

Sunaoka Kazuyoshi looked at the pretty fan girl who was hurriedly looking for the autograph board, the corners of his lips slightly raised, and the depression he had just felt from being criticized dissipated a little.

Behind him, the fashionable woman who had met everyone at the shooting range also walked into the hall with him.

The fashionable woman took off her sunglasses and hung them on her collar, then introduced them to everyone with a smile: "This is the actor of City Hunter, Sunaoka Kazuyoshi. I'm his manager, Tanikawa Noe - it's fate that we met, why don't we have dinner together tonight?"

Although she was inviting everyone present, her gaze quietly drifted towards Jiang Xia.
