However, since the exchange had been able to exist for a long time and the law and order had not closed it down, Conan knew that things would not be so simple. Moreover, there was no evidence, so Conan could not care less.
Now that he had carefully observed Kaho and the others, he didn't discover anything. Conan could only feel depressed about this, but he also heaved a sigh of relief. Perhaps he was just overthinking things.
After finishing the meal and tidying up, Jiang Jiao brought over some sake and planned to drink it slowly. At this time, Kaho Nakagawa suddenly remembered something and said with a bit of annoyance," Oh no, I forgot to buy some dishes to go with the wine." Then she stood up and put on her coat." Then I'll just go to the convenience store at the foot of the mountain and buy some."”
" Alright," Kaho Nakahara replied. She picked up a notepad and handed it over." Write everything down on a piece of paper, and I'll buy it for you."”
Toda Ginji took the notepad and started writing. Fantasy Night glanced at the few of them and then looked at Kaho Nakahara. It seemed like her operation was about to begin. If that was the case…
Very quickly, everyone finished writing down the things they wanted to buy. They sent Kaho Nakahara to the door, and Fantasy Night followed behind with two maids. At the door, she said to Kaho Nakahara," Let Naoko go with you. She can help!"”
Kaho Nakahara was a little confused when she heard what Fantasy Night said. Fantasy Night glanced around and realized that no one was paying attention to her, so she opened her mouth. Kaho Nakahara shifted her body and looked at Fantasy Night's mouth. After thinking for a moment, she understood what was going on.
Alibi!
Seeing that Kaho Nakahara understood, the smile on Fantasy Night's face became even more obvious. She then looked at Takei Naoko and patted her shoulder." Go to the convenience store with Kaho and come back together, understand?"”
"I understand, Master." Takei Naoko nodded and followed Kaho Nakahara into the car. This made Fantasy Night even more satisfied. Although she didn't like women who were too scheming, it was still good that her maid was a little smart. This way, she could help out with some things.
Conan looked at Fantasy Night with a strange expression, then looked at Takei Naoko and Kaho Nakahara, who had gotten into the car together with him. However, he couldn't figure out why, so he decided not to think too much about it.
Speaking of the time, the Mountain General suddenly remembered something and quickly asked," What time is it now?”
" Um..." Jiang Jiao looked at his watch." It's 8:58 now."”
The Mountain General didn't say anything when he heard that it was almost 10 o'clock. He hurried into his room. Xiao Lan was a little confused. Jiang Jiao explained that the Mountain General was obsessed with a TV series at 9 o'clock, so he was in a hurry to watch TV.
At this time, Hida Ginji also dressed up and walked out. He said that he was going to go snowboarding. He said that he would be back before 11 o'clock and drove away, while Kanazawa Tomoyasu went to take a bath.
At this moment, Conan suddenly asked Xiaolan," Hey, Sister Xiaolan, did you call the administrator and tell him that we lost the keys to the villa?”
"Ah! I've long forgotten about this!"
"It's okay. You guys can stay here today!”Jiang Jiao said with a smile. Then he pulled Xiaolan and Conan to the living room. He looked at Maori Kogoro who was drunk and said," And your father is so drunk that he can't go back!”
Xiao Lan felt helpless, but there was nothing she could do. Fortunately, there were enough guest rooms in this villa. It was okay to stay here for a night, so she could only do this.
Xiaolan then went to help Jiang Jiao wash the dishes. Fantasy Night also asked Quantum to follow them. Quantum was able to do these things without any problems. Of course, he also asked Quantum to help him squeeze juice. He could not miss out on this, although drinking juice did not match his identity as a demon.
Only Conan and Fantasy Night were left sitting in the living room. Beside them was a drunk Maori Kogoro, so the atmosphere was a little silent. Although they were classmates, that was in junior high school, and they were not very familiar with each other. Moreover, Conan was here now, not Kudo Shinichi. Even if Conan wanted to say something, it would be difficult for him to say it. His identity could not be easily exposed, although Fantasy Night seemed to already know.
After hesitating for a moment, Conan went straight to the kitchen to help. Fantasy Night watched him disappear quickly and smiled. He wasn't very interested in Conan's matters, but it seemed pretty good to hide and watch these things. Although he was suspected of building his happiness on the pain of others, wasn't that what demons did?
……
If he followed her to the convenience store but didn't buy anything, then it would be suspicious. If you didn't buy anything, why did you follow her?
Kaho Nakahara was a smart woman, so she didn't say much. She didn't know Takei Naoko, nor did she need to know her. She only knew that Fantasy Night had asked Takei Naoko to help her with her alibi, so she could trust her.
Takei Naoko looked at Kaho Nakahara and suddenly said," It's not too late to stop now.”
It was indeed not too late. If she stopped now, she would not become a murderer. Not making a move would not be considered a violation of the exchange with Fantasy Night. After all, the exchange did not say that she had to kill. Therefore, Fantasy Night could not say anything more. Everything would be like before, and nothing would happen.
Kaho Nakahara was silent for a moment before smiling at Takei Naoko." Thank you.”Without waiting for Takei Naoko to say anything, he got out of the car and walked towards the villa. There were some things that had to be done, no matter if they were right or wrong.
Takei Naoko couldn't understand it, but she also didn't want to understand it. She could only sigh helplessly. She didn't expect that there would be a day when she would also assist in a crime!
……
As time passed, the wind started to blow and snow started to fall outside. It was a little heavy, and it was hard for people to play outside. There probably wouldn't be many people outside at this time. When it was almost 10 o'clock, Kaho Nakahara and Takei Naoko drove back, followed closely by Toba Ginji, who had gone out to go snow-gliding.
Thus, the group of people started drinking in the living room again. It seemed like a good idea to drink a little wine on such a cold day.
"That drama should have ended at ten o'clock. Why isn't Uncle coming down yet?”
Uncle was referring to the Mountain General. Because of Fantasy Night, Conan had a bad feeling. He couldn't tell what it was exactly. Maybe something really would happen, or maybe he was just worrying too much.
Upon hearing Conan's words, Kaho Nakahara smiled and explained," Professor Oyama would record that program every time. That way, we can watch the good scenes more often!”
Fantasy Night did not drink with them either. He did not like to drink, so he continued to drink juice alone. Everyone else was chatting, but he did not say anything, making him seem even more out of place.
Takei Naoko looked at Fantasy Night and sighed helplessly in her heart. She was really lonely, and it seemed like she had asked for it.
"How about this? I'll go over there and take a look.”Kaho Nakagawa said as she stood up and walked towards the Big Mountain General. Fantasy Night finished the fruit juice in her glass in one gulp. It was about to start. However, at this point, the famous detective probably wouldn't be able to solve this case.
