Detectives of Detective World

Chapter 989 The meaning of sugar

That day.

Before Karasawa and Saotome arrived, the atmosphere between master and apprentice in the kitchen was not as good as expected.

It's not an exaggeration to say it's tit-for-tat.

Akiko Sato was already murderous and had already installed pig intestines filled with powdered sugar in the oven.

It was precisely because of this that she was so anxious to drive away Karasawa and the others who wanted to see how the cake was made.

Because she was afraid of the explosion, the two innocent humans.

After driving away Tangze and the two, they were the only ones left in the kitchen, and her cake was already ready. Now it was time to start executing the plan.

Before leaving the kitchen, she specifically told Mika Mamuro that the fire in the oven was not turned off.

Who knew that the other party actually smiled and ridiculed her for still having such an old-fashioned idea, and turned off the oven after saying that.

This move caught Sato Akiko off guard, because if the other party didn't plan to use the oven, then her plan would be completely ruined.

Looking at her hesitant expression, Sato Akiko seemed to have made a mistake. She said impatiently that she would use her own eyes to confirm whether it was turned off, and then opened the oven without noticing.

This was originally a lesson she had developed since she taught Mika Mamuro because of her carelessness.

But I didn't expect that the other party would actually open the lid of the oven at this time because of this habit.

Originally, Akiko Sato thought that the plan had failed, but who knew that the twists and turns would turn so fast, and even she herself was not prepared, and the "time bomb" was about to detonate.

That's what the saying goes, plans can't keep up with changes.

In order to avoid being swept in, Sato Akiko could only hide behind the chopping board in a hurry. Because her left hand was holding the edge and exposed to the outside, her entire left hand was burned.

This is the situation of the entire case. Compared with her murder plan to create an accident, the actual execution was completely different from her plan.

Although they both killed each other in the end, she also became the biggest suspect.

"I don't understand something, so I would like to ask Mr. Sato to help me clear up my confusion."

After listening to Akiko Sato's story about the incident, Karasawa looked at the other party and asked, "Just like what you said when we talked before, Mr. Sato.

There are many ways to kill someone, why would you insist on using powdered sugar to kill people? "

"If you don't use sugar... there is no point..." Sato Akiko murmured in a low voice, recounting everything that happened a few days ago at the banquet.

A few days before the party started, Meijia, an apprentice with whom she had no contact, suddenly arrived.

Then, the other party handed Sato Akiko a piece of paper, which recorded the acceptance speech she was going to deliver at the international awards ceremony.

After seeing it, Akiko Sato became furious.

On the contrary, Mika Mamuro smiled and said that she had written it well and that she had carefully prepared it.

But for Akiko Sato, the winning manuscript was a complete criticism of her.

She immediately launched a question, but the other party smiled and said that her name was not mentioned in the speech.

Akiko Sato was naturally dissatisfied and said that even if her name was not mentioned, the audience would know that it was her who was talking about it.

But Mika Mamuro smiled happily and looked at Akiko Sato with disdain.

She bluntly belittled herself for using a lot of sugar as a fool, and bluntly said that her approach was outdated. Her winning entry was a cake that did not use sugar at all.

He also claims that his cakes will bring changes to the world, using his new ideas to make it easy for people to make delicious desserts.

"If I had said that at the World Awards ceremony, I would have been doomed..."

Akiko Sato's face was ferocious: "I absolutely can't stand that kind of thing happening, and I can't stand that kind of cake...

I have dedicated my life to reaching the pinnacle of dessert making, but she denied it all... said I was outdated... too old-fashioned...

No matter what, I can never forgive her..."

"That's why you insist on using the source of all this - sugar." Sato Miwako said in a deep voice, with a little pity on her face.

"But in my opinion, you are just jealous." Tang Ze hit the nail on the head and pointed to the essential motivation that led to all this.

"Yeah...I'm just jealous..."

Akiko Sato looked at Karasawa and said, "But for people in this world, this is an essential thing, isn't it?"

"Let's go." Sato Miwako patted the other party's shoulder and motioned for the other party to leave with her.

"Teacher Sato."

As he passed by the cake placed on the dining table, Tangze stopped him and said, "Isn't this cake delicious?"

"...."

After a long silence, Akiko Sato choked up and said: "It's indeed delicious...but because of this, I feel unwilling..."

Watching your students surpass yourself, discarding everything you learned as rubbish, and developing even better works.

This kind of thing is not acceptable to ordinary people.

However, I can understand that state of mind.

It was pride that caused all this to happen.

Anyone who works hard on the path they believe in will have that kind of pride.

For professionals, this pride is very important.

However, don’t forget that if you value this pride too much, you will not be able to see other things.

Akiko Sato was taken away by Miwako Sato, and the case officially came to an end.

Karasawa first called Ayako to tell her that everything was over and let her understand what was brooding about her, and then got in the car to go home and prepare dinner.

Of course, Tang Ze did not forget to count the rewards before doing so.

【Sugar bomb】

Completion: perfect

[Congratulations to the host for acquiring the skill of bomb disposal for 2 years]

Seeing the reward this time, Tangze called him a good guy. This time, the reward was really based on the title of the case.

Because the case is related to bombs, the reward after closing the case is bomb disposal skills.

Tang Ze expressed that he was very satisfied with this.

After all, the bomb disposal skill seems to be of no use in ordinary times, but it is a life-saving skill at the bottom of the box. Once it is used, I really want the skill level to be as high as possible.

Thanks to this reward, Karasawa's bomb disposal skills have reached 9 years, just shy of being upgraded to B level.

This is considered an "effective harvest", much stronger than those daily skills that can only be used on specific occasions.

In a happy mood, Tangze drove to the supermarket to purchase ingredients, and then returned home to start preparing dinner.

But as soon as he got home, Tang Zexin suddenly mentioned the caller displayed on his cell phone.

Because the caller is Conan!

As the saying goes, don't go to the Three Treasures Hall without any problem. In addition to the things mentioned while soaking in the hot springs before, Tang Ze could basically guess what the other party was calling about at this time.

Asking the "detective" to answer the phone, Tang Ze answered the phone while busy in the kitchen.

"Is Karaze criminal?"

As soon as the call was connected, Conan's voice came from the phone: "I have something important to say here. Is it convenient for you?"

"I'm the only one in the room now. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

Karasawa smiled while handling the shrimp thread: "But I can roughly guess what happened. Is there any news about Heiji's investigation?"

"Ah, that's right." Conan was startled when he heard this, and then said seriously: "So I would like to ask you to investigate with me.

I got news from Xiaolan that our hall Yingyou disappeared after class recently. He is probably also investigating the news about Shui Wu Reina. We need to confirm the identity of Shui Wu Reina as early as possible, so that we can also know the purpose of our hall Yingyou. "

"Then tell me about the information you got from Heiji."

Although he didn't know about the investigation of this "teammate check", Karasawa, who already knew the answer, was just accompanying Conan through the scene to see if he could make some extra money.

However, you still need to understand the information that you need to know. After all, it is not logical if you don't ask, and it will be easy to expose flaws later. By the way, it can also make up for the vague information in the memory.

According to Conan, after asking Hattori Heiji to help with the investigation, he asked Otaki Criminal Investigation, who was on vacation, to help with the investigation.

Although he has not told the other party the reason for the investigation, Otaki Criminal still helped him conduct the investigation out of trust.

He checked all the student rosters in Osaka for 20 years, but could not find a student named Rena Minami.

In desperation, Hattori Heiji took the photo that looked very similar to that of Rena Minami when he was young, and asked passers-by near the Tsutenkaku Tower where the photo was taken ten years ago.

But they all only know that she is the currently resting anchor of Radio Japan. They know nothing about her past and have never seen her when she was young.

However, Heiji's investigation did not yield any results.

Although they didn't find any clues about Reina Mizuna, Heiji also took the photos sent by Conan and investigated Hondo Eiyu, but someone said that they had seen him when he was a child.

The person who provided this information was an uncle who sold assorted pancakes near Tsutenkaku Tower. The other person said that he remembered Hondo Eiyu passing by and eating at his family's shop with his father when he was a child.

After asking about his impression of his father, the other party stated that Bentang Yingyou's father was a man of few words. Other than that, he knew that his father's name was Hondang because other people called him that.

This naturally attracted the attention of Hattori Heiji at the time. After asking his boss, he learned that Hondo Eiyu's father sometimes brought his colleagues there.

However, a few years ago, Hondo Yingyou's father never went to the store again.

As for what the other party does, he has no idea.

However, the current store manager said that his former store manager might know more. He also said that the two of them had a good relationship and often continued chatting after the restaurant closed.

Although I was curious about what the two of them talked about, it was a pity that the former store manager had passed away, so Hattori Heiji's investigation ended here.

Of course, this has nothing to do with the black organization. The previous store manager died of illness because of his old age.

Of course, these are not the main points. Hattori Heiji's investigation this time is quite powerful. According to his investigation, the former store manager had a grandson whom he loved very much. According to the description of the current store manager, he seemed to be able to say anything to his grandson.

The grandson studied at university in Osaka for four years and often went to restaurants to eat. Counting the time, he should have met Hondo Eiyu's father.

As for his current whereabouts, according to the current store manager, he seems to be running a model shop in Tokyo.

Well, after Karasawa understood the business scope of the other party, he was basically sure that this was a figure shop...

Now that the other party's address and phone number have been asked, he needs to inquire about information. Conan hopes that Tang Ze can go with him to investigate.

After all, it is related to a black organization, and the father of Hondo Yingyu is so mysterious that he does not look like a simple figure.

Because according to Hattori Heiji’s inquiry into the current store owner, he learned that every time Eiyu Hondo’s father brings a working partner to the store, he almost always has a different face.

And more than half are foreigners.

Not only that, everyone including his father was dressed in black as if they were attending a funeral.

This characteristic is completely consistent with the characteristics of the black organization, and the other party seems to dislike taking pictures, which can also be seen from the side of the other party's vigilance.

Not only that, the people he brought called him different every time. Heiuchi, Ishikawa, etc. all called him, and even the main hall seemed to be just one of them.

All these characteristics show that our father Yingyou is not an ordinary person.

And if the grandson of the former store manager really met the other party, then the other party might also be under close surveillance.

"Well, since you called, you must have thought of countermeasures and an excuse to visit." Tang Ze smiled and said, "How can I cooperate?"

"Please come to me with a disguise mask that looks like an old man." Conan said, "We will discuss the rest in person."

"also."

Karasawa promised: "Then wait for me for a while. I'll go find you after I prepare dinner for Ayako. You can deal with Xiaolan first. After all, it's already night now."

"Don't worry about me, I've asked the doctor to help me deal with it."

Conan said something a little bit grumpy: "On the contrary, you are too considerate of your family. It's okay to let Sister Ayako eat out."

"Why, isn't it good to be a family man?" Tang Ze asked rhetorically: "You don't plan to let Xiaolan cook for you for the rest of your life.

In that case, I would look down upon you very much.

Moreover, falling in love and getting married are different. Cooking for your partner is also a good way to enhance your relationship. You should learn from it. "

"I know, I know!"

After hearing Tangze's words, Conan had a dark line: "We are talking about business here, don't teach me relationship experience!"

"That's it for now, I'll pick you up at the doctor's house later."

After Karasawa finished speaking, he asked the "detective" to hang up the phone, and then began to work in the kitchen.

Tempura fried shrimp and ham sushi paired with a simple vegetable salad, and he had dinner quickly.
