The couple Konno Junka and Konno Takuji seem to regard quarreling as a daily routine. On the surface, they belong to the type where tempers come and go quickly.
The two of them were persuaded by Dr. A Li, and soon they calmed down their anger. They smiled and invited a few people to go inside to rest.
When everyone entered the mansion, they discovered that the Halloween surprise prepared by Konno Junka was really not just a superficial show.
In addition to her COS costume, the interior of the villa is decorated like a Halloween ghost party. The walls are covered with jack-o-lanterns and various scary masks, and the air is filled with the sweet smell of candy and the smoky smell of charcoal.
"Wow~ It's really exciting." The three children of the Junior Detective Team looked here and there, their eyes sparkling with excitement.
Seeing this, Konno Junka suddenly smiled and explained: "Our family holds several parties every year, and today you are my special guests."
"Is there a lot of delicious food?" Yuan Tai asked impatiently as if wiping his saliva.
"Preparations are being made in the yard. My barbecue skills are very good. You will definitely like it." Konno Junka smiled and led everyone to the living room. After gesturing to sit down, he asked: "What do you want to drink?"
Ye Geng handed the souvenir to the other party: "A cup of coffee, juice for the children, and a cup of water for the doctor, thank you."
Why does it feel like the other person is ordering food at a coffee shop?
Konno Junka was distracted for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that there was nothing wrong with the conversation between the two. Thinking that it might have something to do with the temperament of the young man in black, she said, "Uh... ok."
Soon, coffee, juice, water and candies were placed on the coffee table.
Dr. Ali held the water glass, touched his belly again, and sighed silently, while the children were busy choosing their favorite candies.
Ye Gengyi walked to the kitchen with coffee in hand and asked the two of them if they needed help.
In fact, when he asked this question again, he already had the answer in his mind.
as expected.
Although Konno Junka has a little temper, she has a very cheerful personality. She did not put down the knife she was cutting in her hand, and just waved it casually, answering on behalf of the relatively taciturn Konno Takuji:
"No, you are guests, how can you work? The oven and stools have been set up in the yard. If the children feel that the room is boring, they can go over there first. I will bring these dishes and we can start the meal!"
"Then we won't be polite."
Ye Gengyi responded but did not leave. He moved a few steps sideways, as if chatting out of nowhere, and said: "Speaking of which... the personalities of Miss Chunxia and Mr. Zhaji are very similar to a pair of friends I know. They are My childhood sweetheart just got married last year.”
"My childhood sweetheart..." Konno Takumi had a yearning look on his face, as if he was reminiscing about something.
Okay, I guessed wrong... Ye Gengyi sighed secretly.
The next second, Konno Junka glared angrily at Konno Otakuji, who was obviously distracted: "What are you thinking about?"
"Uh... no, it's nothing..." Konno Takuji felt slightly embarrassed.
"Has the charcoal fire outside been lit yet?" Ye Gengyi changed the subject at the right moment.
"Yes, yes, let's go eat quickly." Konno Takumi wiped his hands, picked up the meat and vegetable platter, and walked towards the yard.
Ye Geng finished his coffee, walked into the kitchen, cleaned the cup and put it aside, then took the initiative to pick up a plate of meat skewers, "Miss Chunxia, I'll go over first."
…
In the center of the courtyard, the heat from the charcoal fire dances in the oven.
Wave-like warmth brushed across everyone's face.
Since Ye Gengyi was usually responsible for purchasing on the 22nd, he could tell at a glance that these charcoal fires, which burned with only a slight smoke, were the same as the Halloween costumes in the room, and both fell into the category of "carefully prepared".
It's not a conspiracy...but Konno Junka seems to like children very much?
But isn't that weird?
Judging from the Halloween decorations, it's obvious that they have been around for a few years.
In other words, the couple has been married for more than a few years.
He had made some guesses before, so he went to the kitchen to test it out. As a result...it was a pity that he couldn't open the topic with 'childhood sweetheart'.
The breeze accompanied by the aroma of barbecue filled the air, arousing people's appetite.
The corners of Yuantai's mouth began to drool unconsciously. His eyes were fixed on the golden meat slices on the grill, and his throat rolled involuntarily.
"It's ready to eat, eh? Husband, what are you doing?" Konno Junka looked doubtfully at Konno Takumi, who stood up and walked back into the house not long after he sat down.
"You guys eat first, I... will come over later." Konno Takumi held his stomach with an unspeakable expression.
"Really, go!" Konno Junka waved her hand, interrupting the other party's subsequent explanation.
"..."
Ye Geng glanced under the other person's stool... It was a mobile phone, or a flip-top style.
Just now, he noticed that before Konno Takashi left, he made an inconspicuous bending motion.
Without modification, the flip phone cannot maintain a call in this state, but... Assuming it is recording, whether Konno Otakuji stays here or leaves, the target should not be us. Counting strangers I've only met twice today.
so……
His target is Konno Junka.
Quickly coming to this conclusion, Ye Gengyi naturally began to think of the most serious 'murder method'. However, after simulating and deliberating several plans, he was unable to determine the other party's follow-up plan for a while.
Um……
It's not like that. Do you want to take the opportunity to quarrel with Konno Junka?
While thinking about it, Ye Gengyi picked up the iron tongs and flipped the meat slices and vegetables skillfully, making sure to stand on the other side of the barbecue out of Konno Junka's reach so that every piece of food could be heated evenly.
He has checked all these foods and there is no possibility of them being poisoned.
The golden skin bubbles slightly in the flames and "sizzles", exuding a mouth-watering aroma.
On the side, Dr. Ali kept swallowing his saliva, as if he wanted to inhale all the aroma into his lungs: "It's so delicious."
"Come here often if you have the chance."
Konno Junka was very pleased with the compliment, her eyes sparkling with pride: "When it comes to barbecue, I'm a professional."
"Uh-huh!"
Yuantai was the first to agree: "Because it's really delicious!"
"You only care about eating meat..." Mitsuhiko looked helpless: "You should also eat some vegetables."
"Doctor, too." Haiyuan Ai's half-moon eyes helped a certain top-notch inventor choose a qualified vegetarian meal.
(╥╯^╰╥)……
I want to eat meat... Dr. Ali was moved to tears.
