Chapter 355 Claustrophobia

All in all, everyone was very satisfied with the arrangement and it was decided happily.

only……

Conan looked a little strange.

But he knows the true identities of Sawaha and Haibara Ai. Is it really okay for the two of them to show off their love like this?
In addition to Conan, Haibara Ai's expression also looked a little strange, with her little face and ears slightly red.

Although they had slept in the same bed before, those beds were all large and spacious beds.

But tonight, they slept in the same sleeping bag, and the situation immediately became different.

The sleeping bag is more than enough size for an adult.

However, for two small children, even if they can sleep in the same sleeping bag, it will seem a little crowded.

There's not enough space in the sleeping bag...

This also means...

Thinking of this, Haibara Ai felt a little helpless, but also a little expectant, with all kinds of thoughts in her mind.

It's like spilling the seasoning.

However, Haibara Ai suddenly remembered something, and her complexion gradually returned to normal and she became calm again, no longer as excited as before.

When they used to sleep in the same bed, every time she woke up, she would find Ze Yu hugging her like an octopus.

Compared to that situation, it didn't seem like a big deal that they were sleeping in the same sleeping bag tonight.

.........

late at night.

Conan couldn't sleep because of Uncle Maori's snoring. He tossed and turned but couldn't fall asleep.

He forced himself to close his eyes and calm himself, but it was no use. He didn't feel sleepy at all.

Conan opened his eyes impatiently and looked in the direction of Uncle Maori.

As a result, he discovered...

There was a dark shadow, holding a knife in his hand, gradually approaching Uncle Maori.

Although Conan couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly because the room was too dark, he was sure that this guy was Silver Fox!

Although there doesn't seem to be any big grudge between Uncle Maori and Silver Fox, but...

If Silver Fox was among us, he would definitely be afraid if he knew Uncle Maori's identity as a detective, right?

Then, it seems reasonable that the other party suddenly took action in the middle of the night.

"stop!"

Conan immediately shouted anxiously.

Silver Fox was frightened. The knife in his hand fell to the ground, and then he quickly ran to the door of the house.

Uncle Maori was awakened by Conan's shouting. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the knife fell next to his head.

Uncle Maori instantly lost all sleepiness and became fully awake.

The next moment, Xiaolan also woke up.

The silver fox had already left the house and disappeared into the forest outside.

The light in the room was very dim. In the sleeping bag, Ze Yu, who was hugging Huibara Ai, suddenly opened his eyes.

There was a flash of lightning in his eyes.

Meanwhile, in the forest...

Beside the silver fox, a sharp blade formed by lightning flashed, illuminating the dark forest and cutting his other uninjured arm.

Blood gushes out instantly.

Silver Fox fell to the ground in pain.

………In the house.

Conan turned on the lights and then shouted, waking everyone up.

"Everyone, wake up!"

"what's going on……"

"Why are you disturbing us so late at night?"

"I haven't had a good dream yet..."

The crowd complained.

"The situation is urgent. Uncle Maori was stabbed and the murderer's knife fell on the pillow." Conan said anxiously: "Also, the administrator and Mr. Takanari are missing!"

"What?" Everyone was a little surprised when they heard the news, and their sleepiness disappeared instantly.

Everyone immediately got dressed and went out to look for the two missing persons.

Not to mention that one of these two people might be the murderer. Even if they are not the murderer, their companions are missing. How could everyone be in the mood to stay quietly in the house and wait for them to come back?
Since everyone can't wait any longer, the next thing to do is to take action and go out to look for them.

Everyone couldn't find the administrator, but ended up finding Takanari Wataru in a nearby cave.

This middle-aged man with a bald head knelt on the ground with a look of pain on his face, holding his head with both hands, and yelled loudly: "Save me..."

Conan turned on the flashlight, and Takanari Wataru immediately crawled over as if he had seen a life-saving straw, grabbed Conan's clothes, and continued to say, "Please save me..."

His tone was humble, and his face was filled with pain, and there was even a hint of pleading.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Uncle Maori rushed up aggressively and wanted to grab Takanari Wataru's collar and question him.

But Conan stopped Uncle Maori, frowned, and said, "Wait a minute, Mr. Takanari seems to be a little bit wrong..."

Takanari Wataru looked terrified, and mumbled, "The ceiling fell down, and the walls came over..."

"I'm so scared..."

Huihara Ai walked over, glanced at Takanari Wataru who was lying on the ground, and said calmly: "If I'm not mistaken, this symptom should be 'claustrophobia'."

"That's right." Ze Yu agreed.

He could understand the feeling.

Because, a long time ago, when Ze Yu was still a human, he had severe fear of heights and deep seas.

Whenever he stood on a high place, he would be extremely scared.

Later, when Ze Yu turned into an elf and learned to fly, his fear of heights was completely cured and disappeared without a trace.

Even if he was standing tens of thousands of meters in the air, he would not feel anything, as if he was walking on flat ground.

As for the fear of the deep sea...

Although Ze Yu no longer has this symptom, he still doesn't like the sea. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for him to go swimming in the sea.

Just like the last time, when everyone was traveling in Izu, everyone was swimming, but Sawawa was the only one left on the shore, lying on a beach chair, leisurely drinking coconut juice.

He really doesn't like the deep sea, nor does he like lakes, rivers, or places with a lot of water.

Of course, there is no problem in taking a hot spring bath or swimming in a swimming pool.

Closer to home.

"Don't be afraid..." Conan couldn't help but stretch out his hand and touch Takanari Wataru's bald head.

Just like Conan used to touch the cat at home.

Of course, in terms of feel and comfort, Takanari Wataru's bald head is definitely not as good as Kojuro's with its shiny fur.

With Conan's comfort, Takanari Wataru gradually calmed down and stopped trembling.

"Claustrophobia? I seem to have heard of it." Uncle Maori frowned and asked, "So, he thought the wooden house we were staying in was too small and was a little scared, so he ran out in the middle of the night?"
