"I heard the sound of someone running on the corridor of the villa in the middle of the night..."
Conan worked tirelessly and finally asked from a certain black man what the Nagato family had entrusted to the Hattori family.
To be honest, compared to the uncle who is looking for his first love.
This commission is obviously much more serious...
However, it seems that there is no way to deduce any valuable information based on this alone.
"Hey, Hattori..." Conan thought for a moment and then said, "You should have seen the surveillance of the villa, right?"
"Hehe, about this..." A certain black man said in a very high-pitched tone: "Brother Gengyi and I have the same reasoning. We believe that the 'prankster' prisoner is not an outsider, but someone in this villa. personal!"
"You guy..." Conan said with half-moon eyes.
He just learned about the commission, okay! Where does your sense of superiority come from? Didn’t we agree that this time it would be a mystery showdown between high school detectives from the East and the West? What does it mean to forcibly bind Ye Gengyi?
"What's wrong Kudo? I've told you all the information I have so far." Hattori Heiji waved his hand as if he was welcome, and said: "Don't worry, since it's a fair contest, it's definitely not possible for someone to take advantage of you." You are cheap, now we have the same starting point, let’s decide the outcome!”
"Do you really think so?" Conan asked.
"What?" Hattori was surprised.
"Of course it's Brother Geng's reasoning." Conan explained: "That guy has always been like this. He won't say anything until he's not sure. Now that he's determined, the suspect is someone in the villa. Personally, maybe there is no need for our reasoning competition at all..."
"You mean..." Hattori Heiji said in surprise: "Saraichi-san, you already know who is the person running in the corridor?!"
"I don't know." Conan glanced towards the room where Ye Gengyi left, "If he didn't even say anything to you, he definitely wouldn't tell me. The reason why he lost to him the past few times was because of , that guy is used to using a more violent decryption method..."
"I'll go ask!" Hattori Heiji couldn't stand still.
Speaking of the clue that someone was running in the corridor, he knew it earlier than Ye Gengyi. If he still solved the mystery first, it would be too shocking...
...
The two detectives searched the villa for a while and finally found someone in the kitchen.
Suddenly, in the center of a group of chefs, Ye Gengyi took out a drawer of hot... peaches from the steamer?
"Saraichi-nii!" Hattori Heiji's expression changed from anger to curiosity, and said: "You...what are you doing?"
"Shoutao."
Ye Gengyi looked back, took out two and cut them with a knife, then continued: "I only made bean paste filling and sakura filling. Of course you can also study other flavors, and the flour can also be replaced with glutinous rice flour." , but when serving to the table, only six are allowed to be placed at a rate of ten, and the others should not be shaped into peaches."
"Oh!" All the chefs nodded.
"It looks delicious...is it a Chinese dessert?"
Just as Hattori Heiji was about to reach out and take it, Ye Genichi slapped him with the back of his knife.
"It hurts! Brother Gengyi, what are you doing?"
"Go wash your hands."
"I washed it..." Hattori Heiji stretched out his hands.
Ye Gengyi stared at it for a few seconds, "It's too dark, wash it again..."
Hattori Heiji lowered his head and asked a certain detective: "..."
Is this a personal attack?
Conan squinted: "..."
Have you forgotten what you came here to do?
But...the delicacy called 'Shou Tao' looks really delicious...
Tens of seconds later, the two of them washed their hands obediently and returned, and got their wish of eating longevity peaches.
During the conversation, Hattori Heiji asked about Conan's guess.
"No, why do you think so?"
Ye Gengyi looked at Hattori Heiji strangely and continued: "Did I say anything that made you misunderstand?"
"This..." A certain black man was startled. Yes, it was just Kudo's conjecture from beginning to end. Now let him give his reasons...
If he knew the reason, would he still come and ask?
"Okay, if there's nothing else, you two should stop hanging out in the kitchen." Ye Geng gave the eviction order.
The two of them returned to the corridor angrily.
Hattori Heiji looked embarrassed. He lowered his head and was about to speak, but saw Conan dragging his chin with one hand, as if he was thinking about something.
"Kudo, have you thought of anything?"
"Hmm... I can't tell you. I always feel that Brother Gengyi's purpose of staying in the kitchen is not that simple..."
"Isn't he teaching those chefs to make longevity peaches..." Hattori Heiji said in surprise: "I just checked online and it is indeed a traditional Chinese delicacy."
"I'm not talking about that." Conan rolled his eyes at him and said, "If it were normal, it would be okay for Brother Gengyi to do this, but didn't you say that he promised to help? I don't think that guy is People who do meaningless things..."
"Do you mean..."
"There are clues in the kitchen!" the two said in unison.
"Hehe..." Hattori Heiji smiled and said, "It seems we still have to go in and investigate."
A few minutes later, the kitchen.
Ye Gengyi looked at the two smiling guys and asked strangely: "Why, didn't you have enough to eat at noon? Forget it Conan is still young after all. Why are you so unruly, Heiji?"
He really didn't understand the intentions of a certain gangster and a certain detective. Didn't he understand that the more people there were, the bigger the target would be?
"Ah... that..." Hattori Heiji was just about to explain his purpose, but Conan pulled his clothes corner, and he quickly changed his words: "That's it... I don't know why, but I suddenly felt very hungry. Brother, do you still have the Chinese delicacy called 'Shou Tao' that you made just now?"
"It's okay to taste it. You're not old enough to eat that."
Ye Gengyi picked up a square piece of pastry from the table with chopsticks and said, "Open your mouth."
"Huh?" Hattori Heiji was fed in before he could react.
"Conan, do you want to eat too?" Ye Gengyi lowered his head and asked.
"No... no need..." Conan said with beady eyes.
This time, did you skip the step of asking them to wash their hands?
Hattori Heiji chewed it several times before finally swallowing it.
It's not that the pastries are not delicious, it's just that he's really not hungry...
I really didn’t expect Brother Gengyi to be so violent when he feeds...
"If you are still hungry, just endure it." Ye Geng waved his hand, "If you are too full now, it will be very rude if you cannot eat at someone else's birthday party."
"actually, I..."
"What, are you going to be a bad example to the children... Heiji?"
A certain black man wanted to explain, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Ye Gengyi.
The three of them have attracted enough attention from the chefs. Even if they stay here, they probably won't be able to gain much information.
"Forget it, let's go." Ye Gengyi glanced at Heipi again, got up and left the kitchen first.
"Well..."
A certain black man scratched his head in embarrassment and looked at Brother Geng Yi's eyes. What did he just do? A little girl asking for candy?
