Stay away from Conan

Chapter 418 Reward Selection

In this way, listening to Takato's explanation, Sato Miwako and Miyamoto Yumi were a little awe-struck. They looked at Takato in surprise, surprised at the explanation he gave and how he could react so quickly to think of this under the circumstances. ——

"Of course, things like crossword puzzles can only be used as a reference and may not be accurate, so it needs to be verified."

Then, Gao Yuan continued to preach:

"However, because of the word game played by the female clerk, and based on the current situation, we can basically think that the figure who appears to be the female clerk's father is the robber. However, if there is only one robber, then in fact the female clerk must I wanted to ask for help, but after seeing us come into the store, there was no need to go to such trouble.

"So, obviously the female clerk has other concerns. Maybe, in addition to the man who is obviously a robber, there are other robbers in the store, or there is something that the other party has.

"So, based on this judgment, even if I wanted to ask the female clerk for confirmation, I couldn't ask directly, I could only try in a roundabout way.

"And since the female clerk could come up with such a word game as a password, I finally thought of the same way to test it..."

"same method?"

Curious, Miwako Sato asked.

"It's also a code that uses word play."

In this regard, Gao Yuan explained:

“I deliberately lost a five-yen coin and a ten-yen coin and pretended that I accidentally found them on the floor of the store. When I asked the female clerk to come over to order, I picked up the two coins and asked the female clerk, See the other person’s reaction.”

——This is what Gao Yuan thought of after discovering the problem with tofu, fumbled around in his pocket, and then secretly exchanged gestures with Xiao Ai under the table——

He handed the coin to Xiao Ai and let her pretend that she had discovered the coin on the ground, so that no one would discover the flaw.

After all, not to mention that he and Xiao Ai had a tacit understanding without any verbal communication throughout the whole process, and who would suspect that a little girl was acting?

Just like that, what happened next was that Xiao Ai pretended to see coins falling on the ground, then squatted down to pick up the coins and handed them to the female clerk.

Listening to Takato's story, Miwako Sato quickly figured out the "ten yen coin and five yen coin" point because she already knew that Takayuan was playing a word game.

"Five" means "GO", and "Ten", in addition to the "JYU U" sound, also has the usage of "TO O". Therefore, the result of the word game with "Bitter Melon Tofu" is the same, and it is also the robber of "GO TO".

In other words, after Gao Yuan interpreted the meaning of the "bitter melon tofu" served by the female clerk, he asked the female clerk in the same way!

"The sounds of 'five and ten' are the same as 'GO TO'. After I told the female clerk that the coin was not dropped by us, the female clerk immediately said, 'It should have been dropped by the previous customer,' and then took the coin from us. It can mean that the female clerk said that we guessed it correctly, but this idea is not perfect.

"So, when I took the opportunity to order, I asked the other party if she had any recommended dishes, just to learn more about the situation and see if the female clerk would use the opportunity of recommending dishes to give more obvious information.

"As a result, she indeed gave me more specific clues."

Immediately afterwards, Gao Yuan continued to explain:

"She recommended four dishes: 'Salted Beef Tongue', 'Vinegar Beef Offal', 'Spicy Crab' and 'Oxtail Soup'."

"'Salted Beef Tongue', 'Vinegar Beef Offal', 'Spicy Crab' and 'Ox Tail Soup'..."

After repeating Gao Yuan's words, Miyamoto Yumi seemed a little greedy thinking about these dishes, but she still couldn't help but ask:

"What does it mean?"

"'Salted Beef Tongue (TA N SHI N)', 'Vinegar Beef Offal (SU MO TSU)', 'Fresh Spicy Crab (KE ZA YA N)' and 'Ox Tail Soup (TE RU SU PU)', four The pronunciation of the first word of dish is 'TA SU KE TE (Help)'."

Simply, Gao Yuan explained:

"In this way, it cannot be a coincidence that 'robber' and 'help' are combined together. Therefore, the female clerk is indeed taking advantage of the opportunity when an outsider enters the store to secretly ask for help, indicating that there is a robber in the store, and According to observation, the candidate could only be that man. However, this also made it clear that the female clerk was actually afraid of something. She was afraid that her request for help would be discovered by the man, and she was worried that failure to seek help would be self-defeating, so she could only choose this method. .

"In this case, there are only two possibilities, either there is more than one robber, or there is a hostage in the hands of the robber.

"And if there is more than one robber, and there are only two of us customers, and one of them is a little girl, the female clerk should not let the two of them in and consider asking for help. After all, if there are multiple robbers, it is completely okay. To subdue us all.

"So, I guessed that the female clerk would do this, most likely because there was only one robber, but there were hostages controlled by the robber.

"In this way, combined with all the clues, what I can think of is that the robber kidnapped the female clerk's relatives to threaten the female clerk to hand over the money in the store, but at that time, we happened to enter the store, so there was It was like a father scolding his daughter."

"I see……"

Silently, listening to Gao Yuan's explanation, Sato Miwako finally understood the situation:

"So, after understanding the general situation, you sent us an email to call the police, planning to subdue the robber by surprise and ensure the safety of the hostages, right?"

"yes."

In response, Gao Yuan nodded——

The email was sent when Xiao Ai was pretending to play games on her mobile phone. Xiao Ai used her own mobile phone to send an alarm email to Sato Miwako and the others. After all, in order to prevent accidents, men might be wary of using their mobile phones by themselves, but Xiao Ai It's different. Who would doubt a little girl?

Especially when this little girl has not had much communication with her guardian...

But I have to say that before I knew it, I and Xiao Ai had such a tacit understanding...

With such a sigh in his heart, Gao Yuan continued:

"However, I just raised an idea. I didn't expect that, Officer Sato, you actually called so many police officers to come to the store as customers to create a false impression, thus resolving the crisis so easily, arresting the suspect and rescuing the hostages... "

"Hehe! That's of course!"

In this regard, Miyamoto Yumi was the first to speak:

"You helped Miwako solve the incident. Of course she would try her best to help you when you asked for help... Besides, this is her duty! Then, as long as Miwako gave an order, the police officers who were in the unit at the time , naturally everyone is willing to temporarily put down the work at hand, listen to Miwako’s orders, and respond to everything!”

So, Miyamoto Yumi said teasingly.

At this time, the female clerk whose relatives had been rescued must have seen that her two relatives were tied up in the warehouse and were okay. She hurriedly walked out. Seeing Gao Yuan still here, she hurriedly came to say thank you. And in order to express their gratitude, Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai's meal was naturally free of charge. Seeing that there were police officers eating barbecue together, the female clerk then brought several more meat dishes.

In this way, it is difficult for Gao Yuan to refuse.

Although the police officers who searched the first section quickly escorted the robber back, Miyamoto Yumi did not leave with him. Instead, she continued to sit across from Takato unceremoniously and ate barbecue together, saying, "Grill some." Bring the meat back to reward Miwako and the others."

In this regard, Xiao Ai looked at Miyamoto Yumi in front of him, seemed to understand what it meant, and turned his eyes slightly away from Gao Yuan.

But at this time, when the robber was taken away by the police, Gao Yuan's attention was focused on another thing——
