Chapter 555 - Night Drama in the Day
Chiba wakes up to the sound of an announcement set up in the box - the arrival announcement in the compartment has been turned off by him, but the announcement of the last stop is forced to turn on, because all passengers need to get off here.
"Woo......" Qian Yu opened her eyes, allowing her eyes to adjust to the scene inside the box - the whole box was pitch black.
Come to think of it...... He felt sleepiness in the process of being arrested and taken off the car by Gavietze, but found that Yuan Tai and they hadn't gotten up yet. It was then that Kayue invited Chiba to his room for a break—he didn't need the box anymore anyway.
And then...... And then......
At this moment, Qian Yu realized that there was a warm breath coming from his right hand, and there was still a slight touch. When he tilted his head with some hindsight and looked to the right, he found that Gray Plains was lying beside him, still not waking up. The warmth in his hand was exactly her hand that Gray Yuan Ai didn't know when it was clasped with Qianyu's hand.
How did she end up here? Qian Yu looked at Gray Yuan Ai in some surprise, and then Gray Yuan Ai slowly opened his eyes in front of him.
"Good morning." Gray Yuan didn't seem to be surprised that he was sleeping next to Qianyu, but just greeted him with a faint smile.
"Why are you sleeping here?" Qian Yu asked in some surprise - although he frowned in confusion, he did have a slightly excited, incredulous smile on his face, after all, it was she who slept next to him.
"Originally, I just wanted to watch you rest," Gray Plains replied. "But because it's a bit dark and I've slept for over four hours this morning, I'm feeling a little sleepy. Then I saw that your quilt seemed to have a lot to spare, so I got in and rested a little. Why, aren't you welcome? ”
"How could it not be welcome," Chiba turned 90 degrees to the right from her original lying position, and she was closer to her in front of Gray Plains. "But it's time to get out of the car, let's get up first, and then go find them, right?"
"Okay," Gray Yuan also turned to Chiba's side. "I've almost slept enough—"
When he said this, Gray Yuan Ai suddenly stopped, and then quietly looked at Qian Yu's face that was close at hand. After turning to each other, the two men are now very close, close to ......
Qianyu's left hand was pulled out of the quilt, and then reached behind Gray Yuan's mourning, gently hugging her. Then, his head leaned forward slightly, and kissed him lightly on the lips of Gray Plains. And Gray Yuan Ai also responded immediately, and the hand that was clasped with Qianyu tightened, while the other hand also held Qianyu.
Qian Yu closed his eyes slightly, sensing the presence of Gray Yuan Ai with the touch and temperature on his lips, and he suddenly realized that Gray Yuan Ai's lips were not completely closed, but had been slightly opened in the process of kissing.
He reacted before the support unit - he poked the tip of his tongue in gently. And just as he was poking in, the tip of his tongue suddenly touched something, something warm and flexible.
"Hmm!" Gray Plains' originally somewhat sacred expression cracked in an instant, and after quickly separating from Qianyu, her face still had a crimson that could not be concealed. "What are you doing?"
"I don't know," Chiba smiled even more, and gently pressed her forehead against Gray Yuan's forehead. "But I knew I had to."
Ash Yuan was about to say something, but there was a knock on the door.
"Qianyu, Xiao Ai, are you all awake?" This is Dr. Asasa's voice.
"Wake up," Gray Hara replied in a voice that still had a slight hint of excitement. "Come out right away!"
"Your voice is too excited," Qian Yu shook his head, reminding a little helplessly. "It's completely different from your usual voice."
"Perhaps," Gray Plains just shrugged. "Anyway, I don't care at all~"
As she spoke, she propped herself up with her elbows and gave Chiba a light peck on her cheek. Then, she lifted the quilt from her body and got up from the bed. "Hurry up."
……
"You didn't wake us up!" Mitsuhiko said unpleasantly. "There have been murders, and you didn't wake us up!"
"Anyway, it's all the police uncle's doing, and we're just watching," Qianyu said. "And I don't think it's a good thing to interrupt your sleep."
"Isn't our purpose to settle that haunted rumor?" Gray Yuan reminded him. "Compared to this case where the police are in charge, that's where we can show our skills, isn't it?"
"By the way, how are we going to get there?" Qian Yu asked suddenly. "Mr. Kudo, I think we should have arranged transportation to the rumored location, right?"
"Yes," Conan said nonchalantly. "It was big enough for all of us. As soon as we go out, he can see us and come to us. ”
……
"What's new?" Conan asked, looking at the young driver.
"yes," the driver nodded. "This happened after Mr. Kudo last asked me for information, so you guys may not know it yet - this happened two days ago."
"What's the content this time?" Conan asked.
"There was a truck that had an accident around there, and then the cargo had an accident as well." The driver said. "It was a truck carrying frozen pork and then drove into the canyon from the mountain road due to fatigue driving – but when the police later went down to look for the wreckage of the vehicle, they didn't find any traces of the cargo stored in it, just an empty truck and an unconscious driver who still breathed a sigh of relief."
"Is there such a thing?" Mitsuhiko was surprised. "But...... If this happens, there will be a report, right? ”
"The official also gave a special refutation of the rumor, but everyone didn't believe it, and this rumor was also widely circulated among everyone, so I think it would rather be believed than not." The driver replied. "Anyway, if this happens, it will be consistent with the previous rumors."
"yes," Ashbara said with a sigh of relief. "After all, it's a very reasonable statement that zombies eat meat, but ...... Can humans really digest those things? ”
Based on previous rumors, Chiba and Ashbara are more likely to believe that the event itself was a rumor that the event itself was caused by a cluster of walking dead caused by poisons such as voodoo powder. But this also means that these people are actually normal living people – for normal living people, these frozen pork are really a bit difficult to digest.
"Unless they have enough cooking power to handle this pork, but that's still not enough," Chiba shook his head. "No one has ever collected a record of similar food loss before. This means that the most likely scenario is that they have prepared enough food in advance to feed all the living dead, but this does not explain why they would now need this extra pork to maintain their supply. If they needed the pork to replenish their stock, it meant they were running out of supplies and had to risk finding something out of the ordinary to steal the supplies. ”
In the first case, they had planned to complete the entire project at some point before, but they did not meet the deadline, so they had to stock up on enough extra supplies to keep going. And the second scenario is that they have already prepared enough supplies, but now they continue to get supplies for some reason.
In contrast, the first scenario is more likely (because the second is too risky), but what exactly do they want to do, and why did they not complete the plan on time?
