"You're not hungry? How can you not be hungry when you haven't eaten for a whole day?"
In the courtyard of the Ogawa family, Lu Wei knocked on the stone platform, the sound was hollow and light, but Kidd was not calm. He looked at Domon Yasuki in shock:
"Did you steal delicious food behind my back?!"
"...That's not the case."
Domon Yasuki turned around and looked at Sakaki Makoto and the others, then shrugged helplessly:
"It's just that at this juncture, the identity of the suspect has not yet been determined. Do you dare to eat the food prepared by the chef?"
“........”
Kidd was stunned for a moment and understood why Yasuteru Domon said he was not hungry anymore.
What is the prisoner's purpose?
Assassination of Yoshio Ogawa!
But think about it from another perspective, why did the criminal want to assassinate Yoshio Ogawa?
Prevent secrets from being leaked!
So the question is, can killing Sakaki Makoto and others who came to spy on intelligence prevent the information from being leaked?
For other suspects, Sakaki Makoto's group has too many people, and assassination is too difficult, which is far less simple than killing Ogawa Yoshio. But what if the criminal is a chef?
Just poison the dinner...
It can be done quietly and without anyone noticing, keeping the secret forever.
So Yasuteru Domon and others were not hungry. Strictly speaking, they were indeed very hungry, but they did not dare to eat dinner at the Ogawa family.
After all, there was no equipment to detect poisons. Domon Yasuki did have a 999 sterling silver pendant on him, but...
The silver needle test for poison in history was just a rumor, fabricated by later writers for dramatic effect. If silver needles could react with poisons, why did the emperor have to arrange eunuchs to taste the food?
Of course, if the poison in the food is arsenic, it is a different story. The chemical formula of arsenic is arsenic trioxide. The arsenic produced in ancient times has too many impurities, accompanied by a small amount of sulfur and sulfide. When sulfide comes into contact with silver needles, a chemical reaction will occur, causing the silver needles to turn black.
But a silver needle will turn black when inserted into the egg yolk. Does this prove that egg yolk is poisonous?
In modern times, people have been able to purify poisons to high concentrations with the help of scientific instruments, eliminating the sulfide from arsenic, and the so-called silver needle test for poison is no longer reliable.
What's more, silver does not react to cyanide.
The Ogawa family is a medical family, and even the family's chef can recite a few professional terms, so it is not easy for them to get a deadly poison.
Especially in Sakaki Makoto's cognition, this world is full of dangers, as if anyone can get dangerous items such as guns and eight eggs...
To sum up, it’s best not to touch the food from the Ogawa family.
Kidd felt his heart gradually cooling down, and the lofty ambition he had when ordering the dishes just now flew away with a "Wuhu".
"It's okay. Don't be scared."
Sakaki Makoto patted his shoulder and encouraged him:
"Your sacrifice is worth it. It's just a dinner. Eat! Eat with big mouthfuls! If you're not dead, the chef will be less of a suspect. If you're dead, it will also be convenient for us...oh, for our subsequent investigation."
"I haven't even taken a single bite yet and you're removing me from the team?!"
"Comrade, you can't say that. You are the one who will be on the monument to martyrs!"
"I want to save my own life more!"
"Then don't eat it. Eat the compressed biscuits with us."
Sakaki Makoto waved his hand, and Hongshu took off his backpack, unzipped it, and took out more than a dozen packs of compressed biscuits that are very common in the market, and even a few bottles of mineral water:
"We prepared these foods before entering the mountains, but we didn't expect them to come in handy here."
Miss Miyano and the others had never known why Hongshu was carrying a bag. It was so heavy that they thought it contained a computer. But now they realized that it also contained water, food, bandages and anti-inflammatory drugs.
The preparations were thorough, but they were not used.
"Won't you choke if you only eat compressed biscuits?"
Kidd swallowed his saliva when he smelled the aroma coming from the kitchen. The scene of Wagyu beef chewing grass in the pasture naturally emerged in his mind. The fat and lean Wagyu beef was fried with butter, and it was soft in the mouth and melted on the tongue...
Compared with high-quality wagyu beef, compressed biscuits are nothing!
They are totally not the same species!
"Don't be too picky."
Sakaki glanced at him:
"Compared to premium wagyu beef, compressed biscuits are not very tasty, but if you are on the battlefield, the energy you get from a bite of compressed biscuits is much higher than that from wagyu beef, and it can also keep you from getting hungry."
"Hey, the American soldiers are eating canned beef, okay?!"
"But their canned beef will eventually become our spoils of war. We'll just leave it with them for now. As a warehouse manager, it's only natural for me to steal a few cans of beef. Don't worry about these trivial matters. You must be generous. Do you understand?"
Kidd chewed over what Makoto Sakaki said with a strange expression. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it for a while...
Generous....
Is this how Dadu is used?!
It was like a knife stabbing my butt, it opened my eyes...
"that...."
Hongshu put his bag back on and asked a question:
"You just said that the chef is also a suspect. If we continue to follow this theory, what if the chef really poisoned the dinner and killed Ogawa Yoshio?"
"Your idea is good, but you overlooked a very important point."
Masumi Sera, who had been silent the whole time, said:
"The night before yesterday, the criminal pushed Ogawa Yoshio down the stairs but did not take any further action, which proves that the criminal did not want to reveal his identity."
