Chapter 967

The corner of Akaso Kaze's eye twitched.

Another one of those cheesy romance dramas, only good for fooling little girls.

Come to think of it, Sonoko seems to really like this type of TV series; she even brought everyone to watch similar romance movies before.

Akaso Kaze asked the tourists about the broadcast time of "Winter Red Leaves" and learned that it airs every Saturday night from 9 to 10 on the Gunma Prefecture cable station, which happens to be tonight.

"Does the gentleman also like watching this kind of romance drama?" the girl at the front desk gave a flirtatious wink, "As long as you watch this TV series, you'll definitely be hooked! Especially if you watch it with the girl you like."

Akaso Kaze smiled slightly; if he were to watch it, it would be to accompany Sonoko.

It was afternoon, and because of the increase in tourists, the inn rooms were noticeably much tighter; the inn was full not long after Akaso Kaze checked in.

But he hadn't seen Sonoko from beginning to end; if she wasn't at another inn, she must still be on the mountain.

Akaso Kaze was just about to find a place to eat when he suddenly bumped into Sonoko walking into the inn lobby.

"Akaso-san?" Before Akaso Kaze could speak, Sonoko exclaimed, "Why are you here?"

Akaso Kaze asked with a smile: "Why can't I be here?"

"B-because..." Sonoko's face flushed unexpectedly, "because as long as you're around, we always end up getting involved in cases!"

Sonoko became righteous, and her very serious appearance left Akaso Kaze speechless.

Please, the real jinx is Conan, okay?

"So," Akaso Kaze asked in return, "why did you come here?"

"There are some reasons."

Sonoko stammered as she walked into the inn lobby. Without checking in, she went straight to get the message book and started leaving a message.

"There's a Mr. Hotumi on the mountain who asked us to leave a message here for someone, saying he wanted to arrange to meet a fan on the mountain."

Sonoko said while writing in the message book: "I found the tree you were looking for. Please come to the place where that rock from the final scene of the TV series is located. Hotumi." ===== CHAPTER 969 =====
