Saturday, January 10, in the evening, Hokkaido Tsurumihara, Machida family outdoor hot spring. "Talk*Follow*

Maori, Ran, Conan, and Yuanko was soaking in the hot springs comfortably, Machida Bao came over, "Mr. Maori, the lawyer in Yamakami has arrived. Can you ask Mr. Maori to be a witness?"

"Of course." Maori agreed...

Machida's living room.

In addition to Mr. Machida, Nako Machida and Hiro Machida, there are also lawyers and village chiefs of Yamakami.

The lawyer of Yamakami adjusted the camcorder and began to read Mr. Machida's will, which was that Mr. Machida was willing to donate all the inheritance under his name to the village after his death to protect the red-crowned cranes and migratory birds from the village.

The lawyer at Yamasaka said: "If you have no objections..."

Machida asked: "I have a question. What if the village uses this money elsewhere?"

The village chief shouted: "How is this possible, you..."

Machida asked, "I mean, what if, and there is, what if there are a lot of people in the village?"

"Yes, dad, they are not obligated like you, right?" said Hiro Machida. "Your 300 million yen seems to be more than a dozen people's salary for a few years."

Machida Noko said: "And who knows if they will buy inferior food at a high price for your favorite red-crowned cranes."

"Enough," Machida shouted, and then said, "I have decided on this matter, Yamakami lawyer, bring the documents."

Machida asked, "Wait a minute, what if there are no red-crowned cranes and migratory birds here in the future?"

"What did you say!" Mr. Machida grabbed Machida's collar and shouted, "What do you want to do to my red-crowned crane?"

"I did nothing, I just said if." said Machida Tatsuya, "Brother, it's better to think carefully about some things."

"Needless to say." Mr. Machida let go of Machida and then took the documents from his lawyer Yamakami.

"Okay, brother, since that's the case," Machidasaki took out his mobile phone and pressed a number. "Hey, is it the Agriculture Department? I found a sick bird here. Yes, I don't know the condition, but come and deal with it quickly. My this is Tsubasahara."

"Abao, what are you talking about?" asked Mr. Machida.

"Brother, I know you love birds, but this is different. In order to prevent avian flu, Hong Kong has already started to hunt all live birds on the 29th. No. 29 was a year ago. You can imagine how serious the problem was." Machida Tatsuya said, "So, brother, don't hide it anymore."

"You, what are you talking about?" Mr. Machida's face turned red with anger.

The village chief asked, "Building, is this true? There are really sick birds?"

Machida Sojo said, "Yes, but..."

"Don't say it, you must pay attention to this." The village chief said, "I will go back immediately to inform the villagers that all the red-crowned cranes and birds must be arrested, depending on the situation, whether they must be dealt with."

"What?" Machida Souzuo said excitedly, "You, you can't, uh..." But before he finished speaking, he fell to the ground.

"Dad!" Machida Noko and Machida Hiro shouted in dismay.

"Don't move," Maori said, then stepped forward and pressed Machida's neck, "and his heartbeat. Did he have a heart attack? Where is the medicine?"

"I haven't heard that my elder brother has a heart disease. He had high blood pressure before, but I haven't seen him take medicine these days." Machida Sato said, "I think I'd better call an ambulance as soon as possible." As he said that, he contacted the ambulance by phone and told him about the situation.

"Okay, I'll go back and notify the villagers first." The village chief left after saying that.

Lan whispered to Yuanzi, "Isn't you really going to deal with those birds, right?"

"I don't know either." Yuanzi said, "By the way, I'll inform Medeko quickly."

"Yes, I'll tell her that these birds cannot be eaten." Lan said...

On the other side, in a RV in the woods.

Yamazaki received a call from Yuanko and Ran on the Maori mobile phone call, and then pressed hands-free.

After hearing Yuanzi and Lan's words, Meidaizi smiled and said, "You are really, it's winter now, and migratory birds from Hong Kong will not fly here, so they will not come until spring."

Yamazaki said: "It is possible that the birds that come here in summer, namely the red-crowned crane. However, the red-crowned crane that Midako caught was definitely not sick. I don't know if they were a virus carrier, but it is definitely okay to eat them after they are cooked. Don't worry."

"It turns out that these red-crowned cranes are the main problem." Yuanzi said.

"By the way, it seems that your supper is not settled," Meidaizi smiled, "Do you want to come here?"

Yamazaki smiled and said, "There are beef and vegetables in the refrigerator."

"Then let's make a decision." Yuanzi said, "But you should come here."

"No problem," Yamazaki said.

"Okay, I'll hang up the phone." Meidaizi said...

Not long after, the RV stopped outside Machida's house, and Yuanzi and Lan went up...

More than ten minutes later, the ambulance arrived.

"This is too slow," said Hiro Machida.

"This is not Tokyo." said Machida Tatsuya, "You go first, I'll arrive later."

Afterwards, Nako Machida, Hiro Machida, and lawyer Yamakami followed behind the ambulance.

Not long after, the people from the Agricultural Department came over and the village chief brought people over.

After understanding the situation, the team leader of the Agricultural Department asked: "How many red-crowned cranes came here in summer?"

"I don't know, only my elder brother knows this." said Machida Tatsuya.

The team leader asked, "Are you all your elder brother's support?"

The village chief said: "No, building is just feeding."

"That's not private property? That's easy to deal with." The leader said, and then ordered his troops to arrest the red-crowned cranes, "Make sure these red-crowned cranes are safe first."

"So, if nothing happens, I'll go to the hospital." said Machida Tatsuya.

"Okay, I wish your brother a speedy recovery." said the leader.

After Machida Sato left, Maori and Conan got on the RV, and then drove back to the headquarters in Hokkaido. Everyone took a plane back to Tokyo...

At night, Maori Detective Office.

Maori found a message in the answering machine, and a man named Tokura Daisuke came to him...

Sunday, January 11, morning.

Maori rented a car to carry Yamazaki, Ran and Conan went to Tokura Daisuke's house.

Lan asked, "Dad, who is Mr. Torakura?"

Maori asked, "What if Mr. Deshura?"

"D, Deshura!" Lan was shocked.

"It's not that Deshura." Maori smiled, "Mr. Tokura is a writer and is the most popular writer in the domestic horror novel world. Most of the novels he has published are vampires as the protagonists of the story, so everyone gives him a title like Mr. Deshura, and calls the villa he lives in a Villa Deshura."

"Oh, I get it," Lan said, "he's now starting to write some novels in a heroic fantasy style."

"Sister Lan, have you seen it?" Conan asked.

"It's from the Garden." Lan said, and then asked, "Dad, how do you know these things? You don't read these books?"

"Don't forget, I'm a famous detective." Maori said proudly.

"Sister Lan." Conan pointed to the magazine in Yamazaki's hand sitting in the passenger seat.

Yamazaki saw it from the rearview mirror and took the initiative to raise the magazine in his hand, "Special report from the Horror Times monthly magazine Tokura Daisuke, I just bought it in the morning."

Lan smiled and said, "So it's just a cram."

"Talking." Maori said angrily...

Villa Deshura.

The villa is built on the sea cliff and is an octagonal ancient Western European building.

A young man who was pruning branches in the yard saw Maori's car coming in, immediately dropped his pruning tool and ran over, then saluted Maori when he got off the car and said, "Are you Mr. Maori? It's really hard for you to take the time to come here."

Maori asked, "Is it you..."

"I am a student who learns to write novels from Mr. Tokura. My name is Tatsushita." Tatsushita said, "Please come with me, the teacher has been waiting for you since just now."

"Please lead the way," Maori said, then asked, "Who is the lady who paints there?"

"That is the teacher's wife, Mrs. Zhuzi," said Tian So-souya.

"Dad." Lan came up in Maori's ears with unhappiness...

living room.

Two people who were chatting, one fat and one thin, saw Maori and others coming in. The fat man came up and said, "Can you ask, are you the famous detective Kogoro Mouri?"

"I am." Maori smiled happily.

"I knew it was a great honor to see you. My name was Fumio Doi," Fumio Doi said, "I am now the editor-in-chief of the Horror Times Monthly in the University Library Press."

"Hello." Maori said.

The thin one came over and said, "I have long admired your daimyo, Detective Maori, my name is Hideichi Hamura. I am currently working in the Folklore Research Office of Kita Kanto University."

Maori asked, "What kind of research do you all do?"

"It is mainly to do research on vampire legends."
