"So, does that immersion hall have as long a history as the one in Tottori Prefecture, as the obsessed nun thought?"
The next night, because Gao Yuan stayed away all night last night, so after returning home from school, she learned the truth about last night's incident from Gao Yuan. After Xiao Ai looked at the freshly baked steamed dumplings in front of her,
It seemed to be very hot, so he didn't eat it directly. Instead, he picked up one and blew it to cool down. Then he put down his chopsticks and asked curiously.
"Probably not."
Regarding this issue, Gao Yuan could not help but express his thoughts:
"The wood used in the input hall is consistent with the wood on the mechanical door. It can be basically determined that the input hall and the mechanical door were created in the same period. As for the structure of the mechanical door
From the looks of it, it looks very much like the work of Sansui Kichiemon, the famous machine puppet master at the end of the Tokugawa period.
"So I estimate that the construction time of Shanni Temple's investment hall should be that period, which is probably less than two hundred years ago."
"Really? That's really a pity..."
In this regard, Xiao Ai, who said this, took a bite of the cool Xiao Long Bao, but it seemed to be burned by the hot air inside. He couldn't help blowing in quickly, and then swallowed it before continuing.
said:
"She did so many things deliberately and almost committed murder. In the end, all she pursued was her own delusion. That nun is really sad!"
"Anyway, it's good that it didn't turn into a real murder in the end."
Gao Yuan couldn't help but say.
"Yes, even the reagents I prepared in a hurry were not used in the end."
Xiao Ai said this abruptly.
"Maybe I'll be able to use it in the future."
Gao Yuan responded calmly, and then looked a little more serious:
"After all, we will encounter them sooner or later..."
After hearing this, Xiao Ai naturally understood what Gao Yuan meant, and couldn't help but be silent for a moment. Then she seemed to think of something, hesitated, but still asked curiously:
"Speaking of this... there is something I have always wanted to ask... is the cross-dressing master you know related to..."
"Well, it has something to do with 'Belmod'."
Although Xiao Ai stopped talking midway through her words, Gao Yuan still understood what she wanted to ask, and couldn't help but nodded and said affirmatively.
"That's true..."
Hearing Gao Yuan's response, Xiao Ai frowned slightly, but seeing that Gao Yuan didn't seem to want to hide anything, he continued to ask:
“Then, you know about ‘Belmod’, is it possible that it’s because of him?”
"It can only be said to be a coincidence."
Gao Yuan said this, and then he seemed to feel that the topic had reached this point, and the two main elements had been mentioned just now. He was a little curious and wanted to confirm something with Xiao Ai, so he said seriously:
"However, speaking of Tottori Prefecture's Entrance Hall...is the BOSS of the organization really there?"
Somewhat seriously, Gao Yuan said the question that made Xiao Ai tremble without hesitation——
Her eyes widened, and she almost couldn't hold the chopsticks in her hands steady. Xiao Ai looked at Gao Yuan blankly at this moment. She didn't know what to say for a moment. She only felt that several times, she thought she had some feelings for him.
After getting to know more, he will make himself feel that he still doesn't know enough about him.
Then, Xiao Ai, who had come back to his senses a little, couldn't help but frowned, looked at Gao Yuan with very serious eyes, and asked, word for word, very sternly:
"How much...do you know?"
"That's all."
Seeing Xiao Ai's attitude at this moment, Gao Yuan couldn't help but respond in a serious tone.
Then, during dinner, which was still a casual chat, there was a tense atmosphere in the air. Both parties looked at each other with serious expressions, and neither of them continued to speak in silence.
Then, it was Gao Yuan who broke the deadlock first and said as if he felt he had done something wrong:
"Feel sorry……"
"Why apologize?"
Xiao Ai said with some doubts about Gao Yuan's words, then turned her head, thought for a while, and then continued:
"It's me who should be sorry. Although I do know many things, but... I can't tell you."
Saying this, Xiao Ai turned her head and looked at Gao Yuandao seriously.
"I see……"
In response, Gao Yuan couldn't help but reply, and then he seemed to have made up his mind and chose "Yes" on the text on the settlement panel that appeared in front of him.
And all of this seems to have to start from this morning...
…
This morning, in front of the Black Feather House—
The doorbell rang one after another, making Kuroba Kaito unable to continue sleeping.
I had no choice but to get up and put on my clothes, yawned and came to the door. Looking at Aoko Nakamori standing at the door, she seemed to be impatient and said:
"What's the matter, Qingzi... It's so early in the morning, isn't the school closed today..."
"Didn't you say that? You said you would take me to the zoo!"
As Nakamori Aoko said this, there seemed to be a slight blush on her face——
"I bought the helmet!"
With that said, Qingzi took out a feminine motorcycle helmet and placed it in front of her.
Seeing this, Kaito couldn't help but blinked slightly in surprise. He suddenly woke up a lot, and a faint blush flashed on his face. Then he turned his head and said impatiently:
"Really... I'd better make a phone call before coming..."
Although, after saying this, Kaito immediately walked back into the house, changed into his motorcycle riding attire, and then rode the motorcycle outside the house, gesturing for Aoko to sit behind him.
In response, Aoko pretended to be indifferent, stepped onto the back seat of the motorcycle, hugged Kaito's waist with one hand, and pressed Kaito's waist and abdomen forcefully with some deliberate force——
"The location where Kidd was injured..."
Thinking this way, Aoko seemed to be a little uneasy because the face she saw last night was Kaito's. But when she saw that Kaito didn't respond at all, she couldn't help but let go of her hand shyly——
"What? That kind of careless hugging method..."
Seeing this, Kaito reminded him casually:
"If you don't use any force...it will fall!"
Hearing this, Aoko's face instantly turned redder, and then she happily hugged Kaito's waist with both hands, and shouted with a smile:
"As expected, Kaito is Kaito!"
"I don't know what you're talking about...but we're about to take off!"
With that said, Kaito turned the accelerator of the motorcycle, and the whole car jumped out quickly, speeding towards the street——
"You have to hold on tight!"
Feeling the scenery on both sides retreating rapidly, and the galloping wind blowing towards him, it felt very exciting. Kaito shouted cheerfully, but in his heart, he complained helplessly——
"Although, it still hurts..."
In response, Qingzi enjoyed this feeling very much and happily responded "Yes", and then the two of them walked quickly towards the zoo——
But at this moment, after Kaito and the others rode their motorcycles and completely left the range of Kuroba's house, the door of Kuroba's house that should have been locked was opened by someone from inside, and the person who walked out was actually...
