Case Closed: The Strongest Uncle!

Chapter 131: Reminiscence.

His hand was a little sore, Mouri Kogoro sat down and said, "Ran, you lie down on me."

Ran nodded obediently, with wet hair in her hands, and lay her head on Mouri Kogoro with awkwardness. Her face was slightly reddish, maybe the reason was the hot air from the hairdryer.

As soon as she lay down like this, a hole appeared in the collar of her yukata. Kogoro Mouri's eyes were attracted to it and saw white pink. He quickly turned his head and focused on her hair behind.

Ran raised her eyes and looked at Mouri Kogoro's face, the stubble on the lower bar, and the mustache. She suddenly remembered the scene on the beach in Hawaii, and couldn't help but hold his hands.

The experience of almost dying let Ran know how much her father loves her.

When her consciousness almost disappeared completely, she suddenly heard her father's desperate cry, which brought Ran back from the brink of death.

Ran saw Mouri Kogoro's big hand shaking the hairdryer again, and remembered that on Moonshade Island, it was this hand that held the gun and killed the drug dealers who threatened her. Her Dad killed people to save her from danger! Fortunately, Officer Sato said it was a legitimate defense, otherwise, it would be bad.

and also...

As long as Ran thinks of these things, she feels a sense of security. She feels that as long as Mouri Kogoro is by her side, she is not afraid of anything. She can't help but turn her body sideways and stretch out her hand to hug her father's waist.

Mouri Kogoro couldn't help but laugh when he saw this scene. His daughter is so attached to himself and proud of being a father.

...

In the hotel lobby on the first floor, Hattori Heiji and Conan walked in.

Hattori Heiji said, "That said, that organization is very mysterious, and you don't have too many clues."

"You have to be careful to help me pay attention to the mysterious person wearing a black trench coat and sunglasses, okay, let's not talk about it." Conan saw someone appear in the hotel and then pretended to be a child.

The two walked to the reception hall and asked the lady at the reception.

"Excuse me, have the girls who were with us come back?"

Because the Mouri group who went out at night was very eye-catching. There were two children, a handsome uncle, two very young and beautiful girls, and a black charcoal head, so the front desk lady was very impressed by this pedestrian, she hurriedly replied: "Yes, I think they are back, I have the impression that the two girls just came over and asked me, and then went to the hot spring..."

Hattori Heiji said, "So they are all back, so it's nothing unusual. I'm still worried about who Kazuha will meet. It turns out that this time she really just spent the New Year here with Ran. That's great!"

The lady at the front desk on the side looked like she wanted to say something but stopped. She looked at Hattori Heiji with a hint of sympathy. The two girls both asked the uncle's hot spring pool and took the key to go. In the end, a girl was taken out by the uncle and sent back to her room. Later, the spring water in the pool was changed again. You can imagine what happened.

However, as a well-trained receptionist, such matters involving guest privacy will not be disclosed casually.

Hattori Heiji looked happy, glanced at Conan, and then said to the lady at the front desk: "Is there any spare hot spring pool, I want to have a hot spring with this little guy."

When Conan heard this, he couldn't help but resist: "Who is going to soak with you big black coal? I'm going back to my room!"

Conan was about to walk away but was picked up by Hattori Heiji, Hattori Heiji smiled and said, "It's a pity not to come to such a luxurious hot spring hotel and not soak in the hot springs, and if you dare to refuse, believe it or not, I will tell Ran now that you are Kudo!"

Conan gritted his teeth and gave in.

The lady at the front desk opened her mouth and said, "There is no free private pool available right now. You can only choose the hot spring pool for public baths, is it okay?"

Hattori nodded, and the two of them went to the side to collect toiletries and then went into the hot spring.

...

Mouri Kogoro reached out and put his hand into Ran's fluffy hair, which was already very dry, and said: "Ran, the hair is already blown."

Ran reluctantly got up from her father tight, brushed her hair, a bright smile appeared on her face, she glanced at the clock on the wall and said: "Dad, let's go, hurry up. Otherwise, we won't be on time!"

Ran quickly got up, then pulled Mouri Kogoro up from the bed with her slender hand, put a footbag on her little feet, then put on clogs, and then walked out of the room and took Mouri Kogoro's arms, two softballs Instantly wrapped Kogoro's arms, and the two walked along the corridor to the outside of the hotel.

"Ran, where are you taking me?" Mouri Kogoro couldn't help but look puzzled.

"You'll know in a minute." Ran's face showed expectation.

...

At night, the excitement outside has not diminished at all. There are brightly lit lights and crowds everywhere.

Both Mouri Kogoro and Ran were wearing yukatas, sitting in a taxi, watching the lively scene outside.

On New Year's Day, Japan requires everyone to take a bath to get rid of bad luck.

Therefore, many people travel in bathrobes on this day, so there is no problem for two of them to wear this way.

Ran said, "Mr. Driver, please drive to the foot of Tempo Mountain."

The old driver looked at the two of them and laughed: "So you guys also heard the rumor, then I have to hurry up!"

Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but ask, "What rumor?"

Ran's face turned red immediately, and she quickly stopped the driver from continuing to speak and rushed to talk: "We have not heard any rumors. We are going to the mountain to watch the New Year's Day fireworks show tonight. Driver, please concentrate on driving."

The old driver nodded and drove to the foot of Tempo Mountain, which used to burn the word 'Zero'.

Ran hugged Mouri Kogoro by the arm and smiled with her eyes wide open, and Mouri Kogoro stopped questioning. He really couldn't do anything about her daughter.

The car quickly stopped at the foot of Tempo Mountain. This is a small active volcano more than 500 meters high, but the ejected lava is not much, not high, and it is stable, so it is not dangerous.

When the volcano erupts, there will be beautiful sparks, which makes it a rather impressive attraction.

There are orange lanterns hung on the trail from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. The lights are brightly lit. At this late hour, there are many people in this place. Most of them are in pairs. There are also families who come together. It is quite very lively.

When they got out of the car, Ran took Mouri Kogoro's arm, and the two walked up the trail.

The people climbing Tempo Mountain on the left and right are young men and women, or couples, mostly in pairs.

Ran's arms around Kogoro Mouri are not conspicuous here.

The mountain breeze at night blew over, and the chill of January came in, and everyone on the trail trembled.

Ran couldn't help but shook her body, and Mouri Kogoro couldn't help but said,

"What are you doing here to climb the mountain on such a big night? You wear so little, what will you do if you catch a cold when we go back?"

While speaking, Kogoro Mouri shifted his position shielding Ran from the night wind. He reached out and put his arm around Ran's shoulder, letting her get close to him, and block her under him.

Ran looked at the tough outline on Kogoro Mouri's face beside her, and couldn't help but smile. There seemed to be stars in her eyes!

"Let's go, climb faster, there should be a campfire on the mountain, and it should be warmer." Kogoro Mouri touched Ran's head and said.

"Hai."

The two snuggled up like this and quickly climbed up.

...

In the public bathing pool of the hot spring hotel, the men who came back from shopping were soaking in the hot springs. Hattori Heiji and Conan wrapped towels around their waists and entered the water.

"Ahhh~"

Both of them made comfortable sounds, and the hot springs in this hotel were truly unique.

Conan's face turned red from the enthusiasm.

The two were enjoying the hot spring comfortably. Suddenly, Hattori Heiji drew the towel off Conan's waist. He couldn't help but smile when he saw something underwater: "Kudo, why are you so small underneath? Not comparable!"
