direction of the desert. Upon getting to the cause of the smoke they see it
is in a cave where Fennec foxes were living. After arriving Conan
immediately starts asking what only to be told nobody has any idea, they
just woke up and the fire was already blazing, but they don’t know what
happened.
While being told this Conan spots Congo peeking his head around the
corner so Conan decides to approach him and asks if he knew what
happened. Congo looks up at him and immediately starts apologising
saying it was only meant to be a joke and he never wanted to cause harm.
Conan encourages him to apologise to the Fennecs and ask for their
forgiveness.
The fennecs accept his apology but only on the condition that he helps
them put out the fire and clean up and fix the damage it has caused and
promises to never do this again. Congo agrees to this and throughout
helping he gains the respect of everyone involved before quickly turning
and running away.
