Chapter 829 Conan is held hostage
The brother and sister sat down at the empty table.
Nagano Shancai looked at the boy and smiled gently, "Xiao...Xiao Xi, what do you want to eat?"
The boy blinked, glanced at Conan and the others at the next table, and then said to her, "Ramen."
"Okay." Nagano Shancai nodded and ordered food from the old lady.
While waiting for the meal, the boy rested his chin on his hands out of boredom, his legs swinging back and forth leisurely.
Conan at the next table was observing them quietly.
Both of them have black hair and blue eyes, and they look very similar, obviously a pair of siblings.
But for some reason, he felt a little strange about Nagano Shancai calling the boy's name just now. The pause at that moment was as if she was not familiar with the other person's name.
But the young man named Xiaoxi didn't seem to notice it, or he didn't seem to care.
Xiaoxi caught a glimpse of his gaze from the corner of her eye, and immediately turned her head to look at him, tilting her head curiously, "Why are you looking at me?"
Conan paused, "Uh..."
"No, nothing. I'm just a little curious. Are you two the only ones here to play together?"
Taking advantage of his childish appearance, he also displayed a curious attitude.
"Yes." Xiaoxi nodded calmly, "Because my sister and I are the only ones left in our family."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Ran Mouri quickly held Conan's cheeks from behind and squeezed them gently, signaling him not to ask unnecessary questions, and then apologized to them.
"I'm sorry to remind you of sad things."
"It's okay, it's okay. We came out here just to relax. It's okay."
Nagano Shancai waved her hands repeatedly.
Xiaoxi also nodded repeatedly, "Yeah, yeah, that's right, and my sister and I haven't seen each other for a long time."
"So this is ah......"
The ramen was served quickly, and after eating, the brother and sister returned to their room.
Maori Kogoro and the other two also returned to their room quickly.
Although it is not yet evening, Mao Lilan decided to take a hot spring bath.
Just now they also knew the room of Nagano Tsuna and the others, so she walked to their door and knocked.
"What's wrong?" Nagano Shancai opened the door and asked with a smile after finding out it was her.
"I want to ask Miss Nagano, are you going to take a hot spring bath?" asked Mao Lilan a little embarrassedly.
Nagano Shancai blinked and responded with a smile, "Okay, wait for me for a moment."
"it is good!"
Nagano Tsuna smiled at her, pulled the door back a little, said something to Konishi, then took her bathrobe and towel and went to the hot spring with Mouri Ran.
There are basically no people taking hot spring baths at this time in the summer, and the flow of people in this small hotel is not that large. There are only two of them in the women's bath at this time.
As soon as they entered the hot spring, they heard the sound of someone falling into the water from the men's bath, which was only separated by a wooden wall.
The noise wasn't loud, so they just thought that some men came to take a hot spring bath and didn't think much about it.
The men's bath next door.
Xiaoxi glanced at the man leaning against the rock, squatted beside the hot spring, washed his hands, and then turned and left.
After returning to the room, I took out the comic book and started reading it happily.
It was not until an hour later that Nagano Shancai returned to the room, and Xiaoxi, who was lying next to the electric fan, did not even turn his head back.
"Sister, we've solved one of them."
"Okay, sweetheart, you are awesome~"
Nagano Tsuna...is Vermouth. She smiled and praised, "Just let your sister take care of the remaining ones."
"Okay~" Bertrand, who had also changed his appearance, shook his legs, answered casually, and happily turned a page of the comic book.
After a few pages of comics, he asked again, "Sister, you just went to the hot springs, should your disguise be okay?"
"Don't worry, I know you're coming to a hot spring hotel, so I made it waterproof."
Vermouth was sitting next to him, adjusting her wig in front of the mirror. When she heard his question, she smiled charmingly. Although her disguised appearance was pretty, this smile made her look unique.
"uh-huh."
Bertrand didn't say anything else, as if all his attention was on the comic book.
At night, Kogoro Mori and his friends unanimously chose to have dinner before going to the hot spring. At around nine o'clock, after they finished digesting their food, they took their things to the hot spring.
Nagano Vermouth Shancai also went with them.
Maybe they felt that apart from the proprietress, they were the only two women in the hotel, so they were worried about her going alone.
But Bertrand didn't plan to go, so he stayed in the room alone, put on headphones and listened to music, not caring at all about what was happening outside.
After taking a hot spring bath, Kogoro Mori and the others returned.
Their room was at the front, while the rooms of those young men were at the back. On their way back to their room, they would have to pass through the rooms of those young men.
When passing by their room again, because their door was not closed tightly, Mao Lilan could look inside through the gap by just turning her head slightly.
And it was just such an ordinary action that allowed her to see the scene inside.
She screamed subconsciously, but it directly attracted the attention of the people in the house to the movement at the door.
The two young men who were trying to deal with the body suddenly turned their heads around, with a hint of fear and panic in their eyes, but more of it was viciousness.
One of the men ran over quickly, trying to take the seemingly weak Mao Li Ran hostage and escape from here!
However, he didn't expect that Kogoro Mouri next to him would just kick him back into the room.
The door was opened, and everyone looked inside, their pupils suddenly shrank.
A hint of surprise flashed across Nagano Shancai's eyes.
There are only two people here except the dead one, where is the other one!?
"I advise you all to be quiet and not move."
At this moment, a gloomy and eerie voice sounded behind them.
When they turned around, they saw another young man holding Conan in one hand and pointing a gun at Conan's head with the other hand.
"Conan!" Ran Mouri exclaimed, a hint of self-blame flashing across her face.
If she hadn't been unable to hold back and screamed out, Conan wouldn't have been captured and held hostage by them.
She gritted her teeth, her eyes sharp, trying to find the opponent's weakness and then defeat him with one move.
However, at this moment, there was a sound of a door being opened in front of them. They turned their heads and saw that another man who looked exactly like the man who had held Conan hostage walked out of Nagano Tsunayoshi's room, also holding Xiaoxi hostage.
"Konishi!" Nagano Sugina's face showed an expression of fear and panic. She wanted to go over but was stopped by Mori Kogoro.
