Chapter 315 The Origin of the Red Handkerchief

Chapter 315 The Origin of the Red Handkerchief

Yuya felt a headache and quickly stepped forward to stop Suzuki Sonoko.

He tried to persuade her earnestly: "My dear lady, can you calm down? Look at how many red handkerchiefs there are on this mountain. How long will it take you to pick them all?"

Suzuki Sonoko was very unhappy and frowned: "Then what do you say we should do?"

Fortunately, Suzuki Sonoko has a good personality. If she were like her uncle, Suzuki Jirokichi, he might have shouted something like "Buy this mountain for me."

Youya scratched his head. This was really a difficult time for him, so he looked to Miyano Shiho for help.

Miyano Shiho tilted her head and gave him a confused look.

Looking at Mao Lilan again, she smiled awkwardly and lowered her head to observe the leaves on the ground.

Finally, I looked at Conan. Wow, this kid just turned around.

It’s over. The five people present couldn’t even come up with a solution.

Seeing that Yuya couldn't come up with any solution, Suzuki Sonoko rolled up her sleeves and prepared to climb the tree.

Just when several people were in a dilemma, an uncle wearing a hat suddenly appeared.

He saw Suzuki Sonoko with one foot on the tree trunk, and she touched her head and said embarrassedly: "Sorry, sorry, it's all my fault that this happened."

"Are you going to take down the red handkerchief on the tree?"

Suzuki Sonoko was stunned for a moment and stopped climbing the tree: "That's right!"

Mao Lilan asked in confusion: "Ah? Why do you say it's your fault? Did you tie these handkerchiefs?"

The uncle waved his hands repeatedly: "How is that possible!"

Suzuki Sonoko seemed to have guessed something and was very surprised: "Could it be that you are the author of "Red Leaves in Winter"?"

"No," the uncle quickly denied, "I'm just the AD (art director) of the crew."

Suzuki Sonoko immediately showed a disappointed expression.

The uncle smiled embarrassedly, and then explained the reason of what happened.

It turned out that this mountain was in the uncle's hometown, and when the scriptwriter asked if there was a place with maple leaves all over the mountains that could be used as a filming location, the uncle introduced this place to him.

The inspiration for the red handkerchief in the play came from an uncle who happened to see a red handkerchief hanging on a tree while taking a walk in the mountains. The author then adapted this scene and incorporated it into the script.

No one expected that after the script became popular, this place would become a popular check-in spot. Countless tourists came here to camp and tied red handkerchiefs on the branches to imitate the plot in the drama.

"So that's it~" Suzuki Sonoko suddenly realized that there was such a past.

The uncle suddenly smiled awkwardly: "But the owner here had a headache. He was annoyed by the large number of tourists. Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore and shouted at those people, 'Are you going to tie red handkerchiefs all over my mountain?'"

"Very funny, isn't it?"

Suzuki Sonoko hid the handkerchief behind her back guiltily, then looked at the maple trees on both sides that were already tied with red handkerchiefs, and suddenly laughed awkwardly.

Conan closed his eyes and looked at Suzuki Sonoko with a smirk.

Yuya whistled silently, pretending to admire the maple tree on the side with Miyano Shiho.

The uncle guessed something after seeing how they behaved, but he didn't point it out. Instead, he smiled and said, "But because there are so many customers, the owners of the shopping streets and hotels are very happy. Because except when the maple leaves turn red, there are almost no people coming here."

As he said this, the uncle suddenly complained: "But they are happy, and I am unlucky. The agency threw all the letters from fans asking about the filming locations of the drama to me to deal with.

Today, a fan was willing to pay me to bring him to this photo shoot. I have been looking for this place since early morning and I am almost dead tired, but fortunately I found this place. "

"Huh?" Youya showed a puzzled expression, "Didn't you recommend this place to the author? How come you can't find the filming location?"

The uncle smiled awkwardly: "That being said, the specific location is not decided by me. There are so many trees here, it is really difficult to find it, so..."

"I see." Youye nodded suddenly.

"It's really hard!" Mao Lilan couldn't help but think of herself at home, busying herself with cleaning the house, cooking, and taking care of her drunk old father. She immediately showed an expression of empathy.

"By the way, can I ask you for a favor?" the uncle suddenly asked.

The uncle asked Ran Mouri, who seemed the most enthusiastic, to go to the Akagi Inn in front of the station and leave a message for the fan in the guestbook there, saying that he had found the maple tree with the red handkerchief hanging on it in the play, and asked him to come to the rock in the last scene of the play, which is where they are now.

"If you leave a message, it's better to write your name, right? Otherwise how will we know it's for him?" suggested Mao Lilan.

The uncle suddenly realized and quickly took out a book from his pocket, pointing to the name written in katakana on it and said, "Then just write Hozumi. Just write in katakana. Because we are communicating over the phone, he doesn't know how to write my name specifically. If you write in kanji, he won't be able to recognize it, hahahaha."

"Okay." Mao Lilan nodded and agreed. It was just a small favor and didn't require much effort.

Yuya on the side touched his chin, he always felt that this plot was somewhat familiar.

It seemed that this uncle would encounter some kind of case? But he didn't remember whether he killed someone or was killed. He didn't write it down because it was not the main storyline.

Yuya only remembered that at the end of this trip, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko were in danger and were besieged by a large group of people from the society. In the end, Kyogoku Makoto came down from the sky and saved them.

But this world is different. All the clubs in Tokyo have been annexed by him and are now basically cleansed and legal on the surface. The plot in the original book should not appear again.

Of course, Tokyo is so big that there may be some loose organizations and groups that are not managed.

But Yuya was not worried. Not to mention that Ran Mouri's current martial arts power was much stronger than in the original work, and with his own help, dealing with some minions was just a piece of cake, not to mention Kyogoku Makoto who was camping somewhere unknown.

You was not in a hurry to find Kyogoku Makoto. If he really met those people, Kyogoku Makoto would come to the rescue and maybe it would enhance the relationship between him and Suzuki Sonoko.

Following the uncle's request, the few of them continued strolling for a while, then saw that it was almost time for dinner and they felt hungry, so they left and went down the mountain.

They first came to the Red Tree Hotel and wrote a message on it as the uncle requested, and then they found a restaurant nearby to have dinner.

Suzuki Sonoko was a little absent-minded along the way.

Mao Lilan looked at the untouched food in front of Suzuki Sonoko and couldn't help but ask worriedly: "What's wrong, Sonoko, why don't you move your chopsticks? Aren't you hungry?"

Suzuki Sonoko looked serious, and suddenly raised her head and said, "Lan, I have decided to go back there!"

Mao Lilan's face was full of questions: "Where? Where to go back to?"
