At night, in front of a dilapidated wooden building, Ai and Ayumi look out at the location of the hidden door.

"That's weird," Gray Hara pointed his flashlight at the locked door of the wooden house, narrowing his eyes slightly. "When we looked at this here before, it should have been locked."

"Shall we go in and have a look?" Ayumi was about to walk in, but was stopped by Gray Plains.

"Wait a minute, this might be a trap." Gray Yuan mourned and motioned to Ayumi not to act rashly. "Well, I'll go and see first, you...... First go to the grass next to you and hide and wait for me. ”

With that, Gray Yuan Wai walked to the door first.

"But in that case, if there's a trap inside, you'll ......"

"It's better than if we all died inside," Gray Hara smiled sadly, turning her head to look at Ayumi. "You start counting down after you dodge, and if I don't come out after counting 300 numbers, run out quickly. As long as you encounter the lane, you may be able to be saved if you keep walking. When he said this, Gray Yuan's expression suddenly softened.

"Come on, I can only help you get here, and you will have to earn your own life for the rest of the rest." Without waiting for Ayumi's response, Gray Yuan Ai walked into the building and closed the door.

【1，2，3，4，5……】

[By the way, what is going on...... Became like this? 】

……

In the evening, in the main building of a beautiful manor.

"Haven't you found the kid yet?" The black-haired girl lightly touched her hand to her lips with a somewhat surprised expression. "If I remember correctly, it would be called ...... Conan? ”

"yes," Ayumi nodded. "He disappeared just now!"

"Yes," Gray Yuan Wai also showed an expression of unrelieved relief. He ...... Well, it should be called Conan. ”

Today, the five members of their Young Detective Corps, led by Conan, came out to play and came across such a manor in the wild, so they visited it and spent the night here at the invitation of the hospitable man and woman, who was the mistress of the manor.

But just now, Conan suddenly disappeared.

"Hotaru, what's wrong?" At this moment, a white-haired young man walked out of the aisle, and after seeing Hotaru's worried expression, he frowned - this was Fujiwara, Hotaru's husband and the owner of this manor.

"That glasses kid in them, remember?" When Hotaru saw Fujiwara, she hurriedly walked to his side, showing a rather worried expression. "He seems to be missing."

"That kid in blue with glasses, right? I think maybe I'm getting lost in this big manor, so don't be too much-" Fujiwara realized something and looked at the two girls who were a little uneasy. "Ah, these two little girls are worried about those two ...... That kid is gone, isn't it? ”

"They're still kids!" Hotaru gently pinched Fujiwara's arm, which was being held in her hand, and made a strange expression. "Anyway, are you sure you don't need to help them find the child? If you run into the woods to the east......"

"In a few hours, if he doesn't move, let's talk about it, I won't starve to death for a few hours." Fujiwara shook his head disappreciatively. "Besides, the servants have already prepared the meal, so let's go eat first."

……

When eating.

"Kid, what's wrong with you?" Hotaru asked with concern when she saw Ayumi's expression a little uneasy.

"Conan, he hasn't shown up yet, could it be that he sneaked out to play and got lost in the forest of the manor?" Ayumi sat in her chair and said to Hotaru worriedly. "It's already noon since we ate, and he must be hungry when he's outside, right?"

"No,...... Edogawa is very strong, so even if something happens, he will definitely be able to return safely. Ash Yuan Ai seemed to want to say something, but the words were stopped by herself, and she hesitated for a moment before saying Conan's name. Belch...... Of course, I think we should go out and find him, and while it's not too dangerous, I don't want him to take unnecessary risks. ”

Hearing this, Hotaru and Fujiwara exchanged a slightly worried look, but they didn't say anything.

……

About 20 minutes after the meal, in a clearing in the forest.

"Yuanta and Mitsuhiko didn't know when they were lost, and now only the two of us are left." Ayumi said nervously to Gray Hara. "What should I do?"

"Keep going," Gray Yuan didn't seem to care. "If you and I are separated, that's what you should worry about - it's better for two people to walk together than alone."

"By the way," Ayumi asked suddenly. "I have a question for you, about Conan."

"What's the problem?" Gray Plains raised his eyebrows. "Do you have to ask at this time?"

"You...... Do you like Conan? After hesitating for a moment, Ayumi asked in a low voice.

"......" Faced with this question, Gray Yuan was silent.

"You like Conan, don't you?" Ayumi repeated the question again.

"Perhaps," Gray Hara finally chose a rather ambiguous response. "Yes, it's a matter of liking him from one aspect of him - from that point of view, at least I should like something about him. So I thought...... In time, I'll love him even more. ”

A small child sat behind a bush not far away, his hands on his knees clenched and trembling slightly.

"Yes, is that so......" Ayumi's expression was a little lost. That...... How much do you like Conan? ”

"Me?" Before he could finish speaking, he heard an exclamation from a certain direction that he couldn't tell who it belonged to, but it was sure that it belonged to a child.

"Is that them?" Ayumi reacted quickly, and immediately locked in the direction where the voice came from. "Let's go check it out!"

Just as he walked in the direction of the source of the sound with Ayumi, Gray Hara continued. "I'm probably the kind I would dream of him in my dreams, right? I have a lot of memories of this, dreaming that he and I both became medical interns, and then worked with a bearded old madman to diagnose patients' various incurable diseases - although I was a little embarrassed to be bullied by that old madman, I was really happy to be with him, so even those difficult days felt very good, and it was a very precious memory. ”

With that, they came to the place where the voice came from—a dilapidated wooden building.

And that's why Ayumi is hiding in the grass now.

【146，147，148，149，150……】

Ayumi's silent count continues.
