Conan: The Mechanic

The Beetle is running on the dirt road between the jungles.

"Doctor, why do you always have to take the path..." Qian Yu raised her forehead. "No matter how you look at this road, it doesn't look like you can go back..."

"No way," Dr. Li said helplessly. "The map shows that the trail is a shortcut... Although it looks like a dirt road, it will turn back to asphalt at the end."

"How could there be such a road..." Qian Yu's mouth twitched. "Especially considering we're sitting on a Beetle, I'm feeling weak right now..."

"Huh~" Hai Yuanai chuckled lightly. "How long ago is this allusion, and it is still used now?"

"It's been more than sixty years..." Conan was speechless. "An outdated joke from a previous era."

"But it's very appropriate," Qianyu spread her hands. "Do any of you feel alive now?"

"What do you mean?" Mitsuhiko and the others asked. "Why is the beetle sitting on the doctor so weak?"

"KraftdurchFreude, translated as 'strength comes from joy', is a large vacation organization during the Nazi Germany period, which itself has a national background." Qianyu explained with a smile. "One of its most famous achievements was the design of the Volkswagen Beetle, which effectively assuaged class tensions in Germany by providing the general public with vacations and other perks normally reserved for the middle class."

"Castle!" At this moment, Yuan Tai suddenly pointed to the front and exclaimed.

"Castle?" Qianyu looked in the direction Yuantai pointed in astonishment. "Oh my God..."

"This shouldn't be a mirage, right?" Haibara Ai was also surprised.

"The mirage won't be so clear..." Conan said, looking at the castle in front of him. "I guess some rich man ordered a finished castle from abroad, dismantled it into pieces, shipped it back to China, and assembled it here."

"Let's go take a look!" Yuan Tai suggested. "Looks like this castle is beautiful!"

"What do you think?" Dr. A Li asked the others.

"Friendly suggestion, let's go have a look..." Qianyu said suddenly. "As for the reason... Doctor, take a look at the fuel gauge."

"Oil gauge?" Dr. A Li glanced at the oil gauge, then turned pale in shock. "How come there is no gas!!!"

"What?" Everyone was shocked.

"You can only ask yourself, none of us know." Qian Yu shrugged. "But we'd better stop at the castle first and see if we can buy some gasoline. After all, we certainly won't be able to make it to the city of Nishitama, nor to the nearest gas station."

. . .

The Beetle stopped in front of the castle gate.

"This castle is really nice..." Qianyu sighed.

"Let's go in and visit them..." Dr. A Li said, just as he was about to get out of the car, he found that Yuan Tai in the passenger seat had already run out.

Yuan Tai glanced in from the iron gate, and then cheered excitedly. "So beautiful!" After saying that, he actually climbed in from the iron gate!

"Hello!" Dr. Li hurriedly got out of the car, intending to stop him. "Don't rush in! It's rude!"

"But I've come in..." Yuan Tai turned around inside the iron gate, and was about to speak to Dr. A Li, but was lifted from behind. "what!!!"

He was picked up by a bald-headed uncle with a ferocious expression in a brown flat hat and overalls. "Where did your kid come from? How can you break in without authorization?"

From the clothes and the arm strength that can lift Genta with one hand, it seems that he should be the gardener of this villa. . . Are you so grumpy?

"Uh..." Qian Yu supported her forehead. "This guy..."

"I'm sorry..." Dr. Li hurriedly stepped forward to apologize.

"Who are you?" The bald-headed uncle stared at Dr. Li with a bad expression on his face.

"That..." Dr. Li explained. "Our car is out of gas. Seeing that there is such a magnificent castle here, I want to visit the esteemed castle owner and dare to ask him to give us a little gas so that we can go home."

"Then what's the matter with this kid?" The bald-headed uncle shook Yuan Tai, who was carrying him.

"Children don't understand the rules... I hope you can understand..." Dr. Ali apologized with a smile.

"What's the matter?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind the bald uncle that made his expression respectful.

"Master?" The bald uncle was surprised

"There shouldn't be any visitors here today, right?" the master asked curiously.

"That stupid-looking uncle over there..." After speaking, he pointed at Dr. Agsa with his bald head. "I kept saying I wanted to borrow some gasoline."

"What do you mean by looking stupid?" Dr. Li said angrily. "I'm a scientist anyway!"

"Scientist?" A surprise flashed across the master's face.

"My name is Dr. A Li," Dr. A Li immediately put on a proud expression. "More or less a famous scientist now!"

"That is to say..." The master stared at Dr. Agsa playfully. "You should have a smarter mind than us ordinary people? So, would you mind staying in the poor house for a night? We'll be handing over a full tank of gasoline tomorrow, if you can do the next little favor. There must be other gifts for you!"

"Master," the bald-headed uncle quickly reminded. "This matter has not been discussed with the old lady..."

"If she asks, you can say that they are my friends." The corner of the master's mouth twitched slightly~www.NovelMTL.com~ to her, so that's enough. "

"..." Qian Yu, who had come to Dr. A Li's side, raised her eyebrows.

The meaning of this word is very playful. . .

The bald-headed uncle put down Yuan Tai and opened the iron door of the villa. "Come in, really..."

In the castle, something caught their attention.

"There's actually a sculpture horse here!" Ayumi jumped on a white sculpture horse and said excitedly.

"Uh..." Qian Yu's mouth twitched. "That's a chess piece. It's called a knight -- a knight... Look at the black and white squares under your feet. Those are all chess boards."

"What are these chess pieces?" Mitsuhiko asked.

"The one with the ring wall is ルーク, which is rook - meaning chariot. (Yes, this piece was originally a Persian chariot - the body of the Persian chariot is like this, but it was misinterpreted by the West for a certain period of time. It's just a castle in their understanding. Now this chess piece has been officially renamed from castle to rook, and the word castle is only used in the translocation of the king's chariot. Qianyu introduced. "The small **** with a round head is called pawn, which means pawn. The **** with a gap is called bishop, which is bishop-in Eastern Europe, this **** seems to be called a war elephant, and in the predecessor of chess, Persian chess, That is what war elephants mean. As for the other two wearing crowns and queens, they are king and queen - king and queen."

"These are arranged in accordance with the last wish of Mr. Zhenzhao 15 years ago," explained the bald gardener. "I do a little maintenance every day to make sure it's as clean as new."
