Conan: Naruto

Chapter 651 New 1:1 is not scientific at all

It’s a new day, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

Shizuoka Prefecture, Izu, the cliff outside the gate of Genkaji Temple.

Lush and luxuriant.

"Um~~~"

Xiaolan stood on the dirt two meters inside the cliff fence, opened her hands upwards, stretched her body comfortably, and looked happily at the green ocean composed of many trees, flowers and plants outside the cliff.

She put down her hands and exclaimed happily:

“So beautiful~~~”

Xiaolan tilted her head to the lower left, put her hands behind her back, and held the fingertips of her right hand with her left hand. She looked at Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi with a smile, and chatted happily:

"It's time to go out for a walk like this once in a while~"

"Ok!"

Kudo Shinichi stood on the left side of Xiaolan, looked up at Xiaolan, and praised with approval:

“If Sister Xiaolan hadn’t participated in a magazine quiz and won a prize, we wouldn’t have been able to see the scenery of nature~”

"Yep!"

Dongfang Haoyue stood on the left side of Kudo Shinichi, looked up at Xiaolan, and agreed with a smile:

"Sister Xiaolan is the most powerful~!"

"But~"

Xiaolan bent over, supported her legs with both hands, looked at Kudo Shinichi from close range, and joked with a bright smile:

"Isn't Conan the one who really solved the mystery?"

"That's right~"

Dongfang Haoyue raised his hands and then lowered them. He turned to look at Kudo Shinichi who was at a loss and praised him sincerely:

"Conan is so awesome~~~!"

"Yeah, it's not that powerful!"

Kudo Shinichi held the back of his head with his right hand and looked back and forth at Dongfang Haoyue and Xiaolan embarrassedly.

On the other side, the mountain gate of Huankuai Temple is far away from Xiaolan and the others.

"what......"

Mouri Kogoro lazily leaned against the inside of the double-door open wooden door of Genkata Temple, grabbed his right arm with his left hand across his chest, smacked his lips twice with his right hand, and breathed sleepily.

suddenly!

"Dad~!"

It was Xiaolan's cheerful call.

Mouri Kogoro was slightly startled, his eyes narrowed slightly as he glanced at Xiaolan who was further to the left, but he didn't say anything for the time being.

Xiaolan pointed to the path down the mountain to the left and rear, and gestured playfully:

"We are going to the next place~!"

"I reject!"

Mouri Kogoro clasped his arms with both hands, and secretly complained:

"A dull place with no one around is boring, and I've long known that there's nothing interesting about free sightseeing tours."

"what the hell!"

Xiaolan retorted charmingly:

"You were obviously jumping for joy when you heard you could travel!"

"Oh, you three can go alone."

Mouri Kogoro held his right waist with his right hand, waved his left hand towards Xiaolan and the others in an expulsive manner, lowered his head, closed his eyes, said something to them, put down his left hand, and raised his head.

Kogoro opened his eyes, glanced at Xiaolan and the others, took out a cigarette box with his right hand, placed it in front of his right shoulder, lifted the lid with his index finger, shook the box and popped out half of the cigarettes, and said goodbye without interest:

"I plan to go back to the hotel and take a good bath."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mouri Kogoro held the cigarette box and moved it to his mouth, about to hold the cigarette in his mouth.

"Sorry, sir, no smoking here."

A middle-aged man in his 50s, wearing a thin short-sleeved white shirt and round-rimmed glasses, stood [-] meters to the right of Kogoro Mori.

The man held the longer wooden broom in his right hand and the short handle of the iron dustpan in his left hand. He leaned forward slightly and looked at Kogoro friendly.

Mouri Kogoro was slightly startled when he heard this.

He quickly came to his senses, properly put away the cigarettes, closed the cigarette cover, put the cigarette box back into his jacket pocket with his hands in his pockets, looked at the middle-aged man, and explained politely:

"Sorry, I didn't know that happened."

"I'm really sorry."

Xiaolan led Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi to the left front of Mouri Kogoro, looked at the middle-aged man calmly, and bowed slightly apologetically.

"It's ok."

The middle-aged man looked at Xiaolan honestly, smiled and chatted amiably:

"For a traveler, this kind of place is really boring."

"That's a bad word."

Xiaolan explained elegantly:

"Because it is difficult for us people living in cities to come into contact with the forests in the mountains, so for us, the scenery here is pleasing to the eye and refreshing."

"It's really amazing that you can express such wonderful feelings at such a young age."

The middle-aged man gave a sincere compliment, then changed the topic and gave a friendly invitation:

"If you don't mind, I can take you to visit the Phantom Block Temple."

"Ah~?"

Xiaolan clasped her hands together, intertwined her fingers and placed them on her chest, and happily confirmed:

"Is it really okay~?"

"I'm not going."

Mouri Kogoro put his hands in his trouser pockets, closed his eyes, and expressed his rejection calmly.

Xiaolan put down her hands, looked at Kogoro, and called out unhappily:

"dad!!"

The voice did not fall.

Xiaolan grabbed the indifferent Mouri Kogoro's arm, and while dragging Kogoro across the threshold of the Genkaji Temple gate, she urgently urged:

"Let's go in and have a look!"

At the same time, Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi followed Xiaolan side by side, looking at each other helplessly.

--------

after a while.

The stone brick road leading to Genkaji Temple.

Xiaolan's family and the middle-aged man walked forward along the stone brick road unhurriedly.

The middle-aged man walking at the front held his hands with his hands behind his back and said seriously:

"Huankuai Temple was built 400 years ago."

"400 years~?"

Xiaolan followed the middle-aged man to the left, holding her left hand with her right hand and holding it upright behind her back. She looked around in surprise at the lush trees standing side by side on the left and right, and said sincerely:

“It feels so old~”

“It’s not just ancient.”

The middle-aged man looked forward and said with a warm smile:

"Huankuai Temple has also witnessed various changes in history, such as the grass next to the five-story pagoda far in front of us.

I might as well tell you that that patch of grass actually hides an ancient well that was often used by people in the Edo period. "

"Meaning... no one uses that ancient well now?"

Dongfang Haoyue followed Kudo Shinichi to Xiaolan's right and raised his head to glance at the towering and spectacular wooden five-story pagoda far in front of him.

Haoyue looked at the back of the middle-aged man and asked eagerly:

"Why doesn't anyone use it~?"

"It went dry one day."

The middle-aged man turned his head, looked at Dongfang Haoyue somewhat mysteriously, and explained in a coquettish manner:

"It is said that... a lovelorn woman cried in front of the well for three days and three nights."

The middle-aged man looked up at the five-story pagoda, which occupies a large area, and stated magically:

"Later, the water in the well disappeared along with her tears."

"Hahaha......"

Kudo Shinichi looked up at the five-story pagoda that was getting closer and closer, smiling awkwardly but politely.

He whispered quietly in his heart:

"It's not scientific at all."
