Conan's Almighty Extraction

"It is said to be a story that happened at the end of the Edo period. At that time, a beautiful girl appeared by the lake. Under the sound of her flute, the color of the lake water also changed. People who visit here feel like they are in a fairyland on earth. , the businessman hanged himself in the dormitory when he was physically and mentally exhausted, and ended his life."

The legend of monsters, to the effect that a businessman proposed to a girl incarnated as a white snake, but after marriage he broke his promise and killed the girl, so the girl turned into a white snake and attacked the businessman. However, he couldn't bear the harassment of the white snake day and night, and finally committed suicide.

After Yagura Moruo finished talking about the legend of the monster, he looked at the lake in the back house, and said with some uncertainty: "Now the color of the lake will change. It is said that this monster will appear occasionally, playing the flute by the lake in human form. .”

"There is such a legend about such a beautiful lake." Xiaolan was a little bit emotional, such a beautiful place, it is a tragic legend that has been handed down.

"White Snake," Bai Yanzhenyu muttered, remembering the legend of the White Snake in Huaguo in the previous life. Compared with what happened to this White Snake girl, the White Snake was a lot luckier, at least Xu Xian didn't kill her.

At this time, Butler Hanazaki came in and said to everyone: "I'm sorry to keep you waiting here for a long time, please move to the tea ceremony room now."

"Ok."

Everyone followed Butler Hanazaki to the outside yard, and when they washed their hands at Temizuya with a bamboo spoon, Mori Kogoro found that Ryoichi Aonogi who came to say hello just now hadn't appeared, so he couldn't help asking curiously: "Why didn't Mr. Ryoichi come with you?" ?”

"Hehe," Miss Sancun laughed and explained, "Although he is the only son of the master, he has absolutely no interest in the tea ceremony."

"In that case, it's really nerve-wracking."

Although Kogoro Mori was surprised, he was not too surprised. After all, there are too many careers to choose from for young people nowadays, and not everyone is willing to inherit the careers of their ancestors.

After washing his hands, Mori Kogoro said to the housekeeper Hanazaki with some embarrassment: "Speaking of which, we have been here for so long, and we haven't said hello to Master Aonogi yet."

Butler Hanazaki was not dissatisfied, but bowed to everyone: "I'm sorry, because Grandmaster seldom walks outside these days, especially he will never cross this covered bridge to the main house alone, so he didn't come out to talk to you. Everyone, I hope you can forgive me."

"Where are you, you are being polite." Everyone naturally didn't mind, but they couldn't help being curious about Master Aonogi's weird behavior.

After washing their hands, everyone walked across the covered bridge and came to the Wucai Nunnery in the middle of the lake.

Butler Hanazaki knelt outside the door of the tea ceremony room, and reported respectfully: "I tell Grandmaster, I have already brought a few guests here. Master Grandmaster?"

Butler Hanazaki yelled several times, but there was no response from inside. Kogoro Mouri scratched his cheek and joked, "He must have been eaten by that monster, right?"

Saying that, Mori Kogoro walked to the window, opened a gap in the window and looked in, and found an old man with a gloomy face sitting inside, that is, Master Aonogi.

"What are you doing?"

Master Aonogi heard the movement of the window, turned his head and looked over, and also saw Mori Kogoro, rushed to the window angrily, and asked: "You bastard, it's too rude to peek into other people's rooms without authorization. Right! What do you think of this solemn tea ceremony room? Get away from this tea ceremony room immediately!"

Butler Hanazaki stood up, and gently persuaded: "Master, please calm down, he is today's distinguished guest, the famous detective Mr. Mori Kogoro."

"What? Your honored guest? So, he is the big man Suzuki said?"

After learning the identity of Mori Kogoro, Master Aonogi's anger subsided, he opened the small door at the entrance, and invited everyone to enter the tea ceremony room.

Master Aonogi bowed to Mori Kogoro, and said apologetically: "Mr. Mori, this time I came to the humble house specially. My attitude just now was really inappropriate for hospitality. Please talk to this old man with me today. Taste Tea, I hope you don't feel bored."

"Where is it, actually, I am very grateful for your invitation to visit me at your house." Mori Kogoro hurriedly said politely, and everyone also bowed down to Master Aonogi.

After the ceremony, Master Aonogi began to perform the tea ceremony, and then added tea for everyone.

Bai Yanzhenyu took a sip of the tea, it was indeed better than the tea he usually brewed, the fragrance was much more mellow, and more importantly, it had a touch of Zen charm, which is worthy of being honored as the master of tea ceremony.

After putting down the cup, Shiraiwa Maha watched the tea ceremony room with his eyes, and found that there were many exorcism charms attached to it. It seemed that he was also afraid of the legendary lake monster.

While drinking tea and chatting with everyone, Yagura Moruo suddenly asked: "By the way, Grandmaster, just now outside, I asked Mrs. Hanazaki to hand over something to you on my behalf. I wonder if you have seen it? According to my knowledge You know, it is a set of ancient tea sets handed down from generation to generation by famous kilns in Kyushu."

"Eh?" Miss Mimura was visibly startled when she heard Yagura Moruo's words, and seemed a little flustered.

Master Qingyemu nodded, and said with satisfaction: "Well, you can get this kind of tea set. It can be seen that you, an antique dealer, have come into contact with a lot of people and the world. I think tonight's tea party will use Let's have a drink with this set of tea sets."

Morio Yakura's face was filled with joy, and after glancing at Ms. Yamamura, whose expression changed slightly, he leaned over to thank Master Aonogi, "Then I would like to thank Grandmaster for your love."

Master Qingyemu shook his head slightly, with a strange expression on his face, and said with emotion: "Using that set of tea sets to finish my last pot of tea, it really couldn't be better."

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words. They didn't know why Master Aonogi would say such words. Ms. Sancun sat up straight anxiously and blurted out: "Grandmaster, what do you mean by the last pot of tea?"

Master Aonogi did not explain, and changed the subject: "Mr. Maori, we have prepared a very special dish in today's menu. Let's have a drink first."

"No problem." Mori Kogoro was a little confused, but when he heard that there was a drink, he immediately agreed without hesitation.

Master Aonogi ordered Butler Hanazaki to make preparations. Yakura Morio and Ms. Mimura seemed to want to say something to him, but he ignored them and invited everyone out of the tea ceremony room.
