Conan: I want to grow up with Ai after becoming smaller

That day, at the invitation of Sonoko, Xiaolan went to attend her sister's club gathering.

"Oh, that's strange. According to the location on the map, the villa should be here!"

Xiaolan looked at the map in her hand and became more and more confused.

Conan looked at the trees next to him that he had seen several times before, and had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Sister Xiaolan, are we taking the wrong road?"

Xiaolan explained awkwardly: "How could I have taken the wrong road? I saw a shortcut on the map and I will be there soon."

"Haha! Conan turned his head and saw Lin Yuan following behind him with a leisurely look. He couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you worried about getting lost?"

Lin Yuan shook his head. "Even if you are lost, can you find the way if you rush? It's better to take it easy."

"Ah~" Conan stared, "That's not what you would say, and you don't usually participate in any activities, why did you come along this time?"

Taking a breath of fresh air and looking at the big tree next to him that he had seen five times, Lin Yuan said calmly: "Nothing, I've just been thinking about the ultimate question of life recently, what is the meaning of life?"

Conan was confused. Are we at the same latitude?

Xiaolan also put down the map and thought about this problem.

Lin Yuan pulled Xiaolan's clothes and asked, "Sister Xiaolan, do you know what the meaning of life is?"

Xiaolan smiled slightly, bent down, and ruffled Lin Yuan's hair, "Why should life have a meaning?"

Lin Yuan showed a puzzled look on his face and looked at Xiaolan with confusion.

Xiaolan smiled and pointed to the forest next to her. "Just like these trees, they never know the meaning of life, but they still try to take root and absorb nutrients to make themselves grow taller and more luxuriant. When people passing by exclaim, "Wow! Such tall trees! Isn't this their meaning?"

"So, the meaning of life is to live, just like today, although we are lost, but we saw the scenery in the forest!"

"I see." Lin Yuan nodded, "Sister Xiaolan, you finally admitted that we are lost."

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward...

Xiaolan took out a map and covered her face with it. "Just now I held the map upside down. This way will definitely be the right choice."

"I think you're just bored." Conan also complained and followed Xiaolan.

Are you bored? Maybe.

Lin Yuan also followed and no longer thought about the ultimate question.

Maybe I will disappear, but don’t people always disappear from this world?

Death from illness, old age, accident...

Should I start feeling sorry for myself from now on because of the final result?

And forgetting the plot is not necessarily a bad thing. Living according to the script every day would be too boring.

Just like what Xiao Qiao said: My life has no rehearsal, every day is live broadcast. (Lv Ziqiao, referred to as Xiao Qiao.)

……

This time Xiaolan did not read the map wrong, and soon they were out of the forest. A villa appeared in front of them not far away.

Xiaolan said excitedly: "See, I was right, it's over there."

When I got closer, I realized that to get to the villa, I had to cross a suspension bridge, and there was a figure in a black robe on the bridge.

The figure turned around, his face wrapped in bandages under the black robe. He took a look and ran away towards the villa.

Xiaolan was startled and asked in a trembling voice, "Is he going to that villa too?"

"It should be... not." Conan was also frightened and said uncertainly.

Lin Yuan looked at the disappearing figure and shook his head. "No, in this deep mountain, there is only this villa nearby. There is no need to cross this suspension bridge to go anywhere else. His destination is definitely the villa as well."

"Don't scare me."

After hearing this, Xiaolan felt terrible and had the urge to go back.

"Don't worry, Sister Xiaolan. No matter how mysterious he acts, he is still a human being. You can use karate to deal with him!"

Lin Yuan said a few words of comfort. Originally, these words of comfort should have been said by Conan, but the straight man had already run to the suspension bridge to see if the bandaged monster had left any traces.

Xiaolan nodded and walked towards the villa. She had already made an agreement with Yuanzi and could not break it easily.

When we arrived at the villa, we had wasted quite some time because we got lost in the forest. Sonoko's friends had already arrived and were resting in their rooms.

Xiaolan was still worried about the bandaged man, so she asked, "Sonoko, among those people, is there anyone with a head full of bandages?"

"Bandages?" Yuanzi asked in confusion, "This is just an ordinary party. You wouldn't come to attend with bandages all over your body. You are too strong-willed to be disabled."

“Maybe just someone passing by.”

Xiaolan felt a lot more at ease instantly.

Yuanzi pointed upstairs and said, "Your room is on the second floor. These two little brats can live with you!"

"it is good!"

Several people went upstairs, and since Yuanzi did not specify which room it was, Xiaolan went upstairs to look for them one by one.

I opened three rooms in succession, and all of them were men changing clothes.

Finally, Xiaolan blushed and opened the fourth room, which was their room.

"Conan, something's wrong."

Lin Yuan looked mysterious.

Conan was shocked. Could it be that another case was about to happen? Did Lin Yuan notice the omen?

He immediately lowered his voice and asked, "What did you find?"

"Three men, actually changing clothes at the same time, they must be~"

Lin Yuan deliberately dragged out the last word, which made Conan curious. Could it be that the three men were...

Seeing Conan's impatient look, Lin Yuan continued, "They must have taken a fancy to Sister Xiaolan and tried to seduce her with their bodies."

"what?"

Conan's jaw dropped. It was just a small matter, but he thought they were doing... No, he thought it was some big case.

He rolled his eyes and followed Xiaolan into the room.

After putting away their backpacks, everyone gathered in the restaurant.

Yuanzi immediately introduced everyone.

All five of them are members of the film club, namely Masaru Ota who is responsible for the main work, Hiroki Kakutani who is in charge of photography, Ryoichi Takahashi who is in charge of props, Sonoko-sister who is in charge of costumes and makeup, Ayako Suzuki, and Chikako Ikeda who is in charge of the script.

After the introduction, everyone started to communicate in a friendly manner and the atmosphere was harmonious until Suzuki Ayako mentioned that incident.

"It feels so good to be together with everyone. Oh, and Atsuko, if that thing hadn't happened, Atsuko would be here too."

The faces of the remaining four people changed drastically. Ikeda Chikako slammed the table vigorously, "Don't mention that matter again! I finally have some time to relax, I don't want to mention the matter of a dead person!"

"Humph~" Ota Katsu said with disdain, "When you become famous, your tone of voice changes."

Suzuki Ayako immediately calmed the two people who were about to quarrel, and said in a gentle tone: "Okay, okay, you guys go and rest first, I'll go prepare dinner now."

Takahashi Ryoichi stood up and said, "Then I'll go fix the roof. I think it might rain soon."
