A library opposite the Mihua branch.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko are diligently reading books and learning the process of making handmade chocolate.

"Eh? The cocoa powder is sold out?" The daughter of a certain Suzuki consortium had a look of disbelief.

Just when Ye Geng was guessing whether the other party was planning to use his banknote power to boldly buy a chocolate factory.

Sonoko Suzuki said in a somewhat dejected way: "Then what should I do..."

Go plant cocoa trees, or melt other people's chocolate, then solidify it and write your own name... Ye Gengyi was about to say goodbye and leave without getting the answer he wanted.

"I understand! This must be God's will," Suzuki Sonoko slapped his thigh suddenly, ignoring the slogan of "no noise" and said, "How about we go to Fudo Mountain Villa? It's a holy place for making chocolate!"

 …

"Really, why do you have to go to a place where birds don't lay eggs to make chocolate..."

The car is driving on a foggy mountain road.

In the passenger seat, Mori Kogoro looked drunk, "If you want me to say, for things like chocolate, just go to the store and buy ready-made ones."

Because that kind of chocolate has no soul... In the driver's seat, Ye Geng thought desperately.

About half an hour ago.

Because the cocoa powder was sold out, Ye Gengyi originally planned to return the three children to the two girls who were reading in the bookstore, and then go home to continue scientific research.

After these two days of 'restlessness', the raw materials for making chocolate will naturally become uninterested again.

Maybe it will be summer when you open your eyes tomorrow... Ye Gengyi originally thought so.

However, when Suzuki Sonoko proposed to go to Fudu Mountain Villa, he casually said, "If it's convenient, bring back two catties of cocoa powder for myself."

When Mao Lilan heard the words, she said that there seemed to be half a catty in the office.

Time was not tight, and after dropping off the three children home, Ye Gengyi decided to pick them up.

In the end, a certain useless uncle detective got drunk.

And going to Fudu Mountain Villa requires a driver...

"Really, Dad! If you feel bored, then don't come with me!" Mao Lilan had obviously reached the age where he disliked his father's drinking.

"Hmph, as an elder, how can I rest assured that you go to the deep mountains and old forests to make chocolate?" Mori Kogoro muttered dissatisfied.

"Uncle, you are really old," Suzuki Sonoko said excitedly, "The reason why Fudu Mountain Villa is called the Holy Land of Chocolate is because making chocolate there can keep love smooth and perfect forever!"

"So that's how it is!" Mao Lilan suddenly realized, "Then do you want to make chocolates for Kyogoku and confess to him?"

"Uh... I originally planned to do this," Suzuki Sonoko was obviously a little sad when talking about this, "but he hasn't contacted me recently. I took the initiative to call several times, and the calls were transferred to voicemail."

"No way..." Mao Lilan looked at the depressed yard, not knowing how to comfort her for a while.

"It should be because I said something wrong..."

Sonoko Suzuki reflected on herself:

"The last time I called him, I deliberately told him 'I'm making chocolates for my beloved'. I originally planned to give him a handmade sweater, but it still didn't work out, so I didn't Just speak so full of words... If I had known it, I would have told him 'I'm making chocolates for you'..."

"Would you like to hack your voicemail for you?" Ye Gengyi suggested.

Eh?

Everyone was startled.

Ye Gengyi continued: "The call will be transferred to the voice message. It is the system that redirects the base station signal. It is not complicated to crack this setting."

...a **** confession?

Everyone was ashamed.

Suzuki Sonoko was completely unprepared, so he could only smile dryly and say, "No, it's better not to use it."

...if at all, at least until she makes the chocolate.

 …

See the rest in the wind and snow.

Ye Gengyi looked out through the car window.

On the picturesque mountainside dyed with lacquer, sporadic lights can be vaguely seen.

Although due to the misty fog, it is not yet possible to determine how far the distance is, but from the faintly visible tire marks on the ground, it can be judged that they are not the only people who come here to make chocolate today.

The lucky one chosen by the **** of death?

Ye Gengyi glanced at Ke Datou through the rearview mirror.

No wonder he didn't show his power on the street just now, so he was waiting here...

At this time, the car turned a corner and stopped at a fork in the road.

There are no obvious road signs here. Ye Geng got out of the car and observed, and found a somewhat tattered wooden sign, which seemed to have been blown off by the mountain wind and fell to the ground.

Bounce off the snow above.

【Fuidu Villa (right, 5KM)】

 …

The combination of falling snow and withered pine will inevitably make people feel a little deserted.

Especially after seeing that the person in charge of reception is an old woman in her early 60s.

The mood of a certain tool person suddenly turned frosty.

"Hey, you, an old woman, are the main culprit who lured ignorant girls into making chocolates in this barren mountain and wilderness." Mori Kogoro said righteously.

"Huh, I'm not lying. About ten years ago, there was indeed a young man and a woman who became lovers because they made chocolate here," the old woman explained, "Later, TV and magazines also talked about this. The incident was reported, so it attracted a group of girls rushing to come!"

"Really..." Mori Kogoro looked around, but he didn't see any youthful and beautiful figure, so he couldn't help but wondered: "Isn't it almost Valentine's Day, then why are there so few people here?"

"Because of my husband," the old woman said, "he was the former boss here, and he passed away four years ago. After that, there were successive rumors about ghosts haunting the mountains~lightnovelpub.net~ Later There are fewer and fewer tourists here.”

"There are... ghosts..."

Mao Lilan was obviously frightened.

"If you don't want to receive gifts from the ghosts, then don't go out alone when it's snowing." The old woman said: "Otherwise...it will be bad if you encounter any danger."

"Strange gift... what is that?" Mao Lilan was even more frightened.

No wonder there are fewer and fewer customers. I'm afraid it's because of the counter-propaganda of the proprietress...Ye Geng thought about it, and his eyes fell on a man who had just walked into the yard, wearing a mountaineering suit, and looked '囧' attitude of the youth.

"It's chocolate."

The man obviously heard the conversation of several people, and said with a smile: "The mountain road on this mountain is very winding, and people often die here. The most strange thing is that at this time of year, there will be a Chocolate, placed next to the bodies of the victims..."
