Conan Moslin

Chapter 281: Fog City Hotel (3)

"Your name is Conan? Really?" Kento Toba confirmed again and gave his own name and the name of the girl next to him in exchange.

Oki Ayako, who came with him, asked curiously, "Your family must also like Conan Doyle very much, right?"

Conan touched the back of his head and nodded to a few people: "Yes! My father is a Conan Doyle fan, so he gave me this name!"

When it comes to how I named myself, I have to say that it was my father who gave me the name.

So, I am equal to my dad?

Conan shook his head vigorously to get this strange idea out of his mind.

"so cute……"

Several people rubbed Conan's head one by one, until he fell all over the place, and then they reluctantly dispersed under the gaze of their temporary guardian Li An who seemed to be still watching the show.

Kawazu Ikuo, who was in the same car, suddenly took the opportunity to ask: "Is it your sister who brought you here? I wanted to ask you a while ago, I remember she was not..."

It's not easy. The magician who never claims to be a public figure was finally recognized.

"No, Sister Li An is because..." Conan began a long journey of explanation.

Although he was happy that these people loved Conan Doyle, Conan was speechless about what Hattori Heiji had just done.

While he was babbling away to explain the situation, he was listening to what Hattori Heiji and Kuriyasu said, who had used his name to escape the condemning gaze.

"Ms. Li An, I have something I want to know from you..."

"Okay everyone!" The innkeeper Jingu clapped his hands, interrupting the noisy scene and shifting everyone's attention to himself.

"It's getting late, let me briefly talk about the itinerary for the next few days, and everyone can go back to their rooms and rest early."

Li An nodded to Hattori, indicating that he would talk later, and then listened carefully to Mr. Kanaya's arrangements.

After briefly talking about tomorrow's schedule, Hiroyuki Kanaya began to introduce tomorrow's highlight.

"After dinner, it's time for the annual highlight, the super-difficult reasoning quiz!"

"Those who answer all the questions correctly will receive... Look, this is the book in Hitomi's hand... The first edition of Sherlock Holmes's first published work, Conan Doyle's famous work, A Study in Scarlet!"

Satisfied with the envious and wanting looks that a group of people showed towards the books in the waiter's hands, Kanaya Hiroyuki raised his head complacently and raised his hand to stop their exclamations.

"Don't think you can just join the dinner quiz so easily... Before tomorrow night's event begins, I need you to prove how much you admire Sherlock Holmes."

Iwai Hitomi handed the books she had just found to the boss, and then laboriously carried out a thick stack of printed documents.

"The book that Ms. Iwai is handing out to you now is 1000 Questions About Sherlock Holmes."

"Only those who hand in their answer sheets to me before tomorrow's dinner and whose total score is above 990 can participate in the final reasoning quiz."

Li An took the test book from Miss Iwai, thanked her and flipped through it casually.

She dug up the contents of the Sherlock Holmes books from her memory and made a few simple comparisons.

These questions obviously have a lot of details, and it will take quite a while to write out all the answers.

Due before 8 o'clock tomorrow night?

It sounded a bit nervous, but she had no interest in the book. She could just write it for fun, but she didn't want to light the lamp and stay up late.

Come to think of it, Mr. Kanaya’s deadline for collecting questions is so late, doesn’t he need time to check them?

Or maybe... he doesn't even bother to check these questions?

Li An closed the test book in his hand.

In addition to the two people from the hotel, there are a total of 8 adults and 2 children participating in the trip today. It will obviously take a long time to finish reading all the 1000 questions in the question book before the quiz activity.

However, if the qualification is disqualified after ten mistakes, it may be possible to catch up - provided that the activity can indeed be carried out smoothly.

Although Li An didn't see who was in danger, he listened to what Mr. Kanaya said next -

"To be on the safe side, I would like to ask everyone to hand over their cell phones and relevant reference books to Ms. Iwai immediately for safekeeping."

"Even if you don't hand it over, it doesn't matter, because there are surveillance cameras and bugs installed everywhere in the hotel to monitor everyone present."

If nothing unexpected happens, there is a high probability that an accident will happen.

Li An glanced at the surveillance camera in the hall, took out a mobile phone and handed it over.

In fact, it makes no difference whether you hand in your cell phone or not, because the cell phone signal has been very poor since you went up the mountain.

The nearest signal tower that Li An saw was only one near the convenience store at the foot of the mountain. In the hotel, only the wired phone in the office could be used.

Why build a hotel in a place like this?

In a place like this, no one would know if I lost contact...

After Ms. Iwai distributed the questions, Mr. Kanaya reiterated the rules, this time in a more stern way: "If anyone cheats... I'm sorry, but I will ask him to get out of my hotel immediately!"

It's really hard for him, he has to use honorifics to say "get lost".

"Okay, do you have any questions?"

"Mr. Jingu, I may need to contact the child's guardian tomorrow. I think the signal here is not very good. Can I borrow the phone in your hotel?"

At this time, Xiaolan should have rested.

Jin Gu Yuzhi hesitated for a moment and quickly agreed: "Of course, but the calls will be received in my room. In order to ensure fairness, I need to be present."

"No problem, I'll find time to come see you tomorrow."

After finishing the brief explanation, Iwai Hitomi distributed the keys and everyone returned to the rooms mentioned in the letter.

Li An and a few others consciously fell behind.

Of course, Hattori Heiji would not miss this opportunity to communicate with Kurian and followed her all the way.

Conan was about to chase after him, but just as he was about to leave the hall, someone behind him suddenly grabbed his hand.

He turned around with some surprise, and saw the fat middle-aged lady turning over his palm and examining it carefully.

Maria Toda looked at the palm of his hand, then turned to look at Ai beside her, and soon revealed a worried expression.

"Little friend Conan, you and this little sister——"

She lowered her voice mysteriously.

"Do you have any big secret?"

"what?"

Conan, who was being pulled and was a little confused, suddenly shuddered and quickly pulled his hand back.

Xiao Ai also immediately looked at her expression, trying not to show any vigilance.

However, surprisingly, the mysterious and solemn expression of the middle-aged woman in front of him soon softened, and her round face suddenly became playful.

"Haha...did you hide the test papers with bad grades?"

She seemed very satisfied with her prank and her expression looked smug.

Conan's originally tense heart relaxed a little: "Well, this..."

Maria put away her exaggerated expression, but her voice was still low: "Be careful..."

Her eyes were kind and distant, and they met the gaze of Li An who happened to turn around.

She smiled at Li An very naturally, but still only told the story to the two children.

"Otherwise, your secret might be known to someone right away, okay?"

His secret...

Soul-searching question, is there anyone who doesn't know the secret of Edogawa Conan? !
