7 years old....
That was 10 years ago?
The teacup was steaming, the air conditioner was blowing cold air, and Sakaki Makoto, who was sitting on the sofa, nodded expressionlessly:
"I see, Ms. Maori is indeed talented. After 10 years of practice, she became the champion of the Tokyo Karate Tournament..."
"Hey, it's not that great..."
Her cheeks turned red, and Mao Lilan said shyly:
"The opponents in the competition are also very strong..."
Click.
Hearing the conversation coming from downstairs, Conan put down his equipment and ran to the second floor.
"Mr. Sakaki, is the car rental ready?"
"It's rented."
Showing the receipt, Sakaki said:
"Go to the store to pick up the car at 7am tomorrow morning."
This time, they will travel with Kogoro Mori, divided into two cars, a total of 6 people, and head to the mountains of Nagano Prefecture together.
After sitting for a while, Sakaki Makoto saw that the time was almost up, so he picked up the teacup and drank it all, saying:
"We are going to the supermarket, so we won't bother you any more."
"Why are you in such a hurry to go to the supermarket?"
Conan shouted:
"It's not too late to go later!"
“There are a lot of things to prepare...”
Sakaki Makoto said calmly:
"Besides, Mingmei is waiting for us to buy ingredients and go home."
Without further ado, Sakaki and the other two walked towards the door, and the moment they opened the door...
Kogoro Mouri, who was listening to horse racing, half of his head appeared from behind the newspaper and stared at Makoto Sakaki quietly until they completely walked out of the office.
..........................
Downstairs, a black car with license plate Osaka 5577 was already waiting.
I went to the warehouse that was still under renovation and asked about the construction period...
Sakaki Makoto opened the door and got into the black car.
"The masters said that the warehouse will be completed the day after tomorrow afternoon."
"It's pretty fast..."
Miss Miyano, who was obviously in a good mood, raised her lips:
"We said it would be finished in half a month, and it will be exactly half a month the day after tomorrow."
"Mr. Sakaki, which supermarket are we going to?"
Hattori Heiji in the front row turned around and asked:
"If you want to park, go to Ito-Yokado. Parking there is cheaper."
If Sakaki Makoto were alone, he might choose the cheaper Don Quijote, but...
Most of the food prepared for tomorrow will be enjoyed on the road with Miss Miyano, so quality is of the utmost importance.
As a subsidiary of 7-Eleven Corporation, Ito-Yokado does not have a price advantage compared to other supermarkets, but its quality control, especially in meat and fresh vegetables, is absolutely second to none.
At 10:15 am, the car drove into the underground parking lot of Ito-Yokado.
Everyone came to the supermarket, picked up the carts, and headed straight to the beverage area.
Because he would be staying overnight at the Twilight Annex, Makoto Sakaki had to bring enough food and drinking water.
He would not easily eat food given by strangers, nor would he drink water.
What if someone poisons the food?
Nowadays, all kinds of strange and bizarre poisons can kill people in an instant, and it is hard to guard against them. It is always better to be careful.
For example, cyanide and VX neurotoxin.
“Buy more water...”
Sakaki Makoto put two bottles of mineral water into the cart:
"It's expected to take two days."
“And canned coffee...”
Turning around, Miss Miyano took a dozen cans of coffee from the shelf. The reason she gave was:
"It's going to be a long drive, so drink some coffee to keep yourself awake."
"OK."
Otaki Goro, Hattori Heiji and the other two did not follow. They split into two groups and went their own way.
After buying all the water, Makoto Sakaki pushed the cart to the fast food area.
The journey is expected to take 12 hours, and drinking water alone will not sustain the journey.
Sakaki Makoto's first choice...
Naturally, it is the most hunger-resistant compressed biscuit.
But if you think of this commission as a journey...
Compressed cookies are not suitable.
Who eats compressed biscuits while traveling?
but...
Sakaki Makoto still took two small boxes of compressed biscuits.
In addition, Miss Miyano chose fresh bread with a shelf life of 7 days, jam, canned tuna, instant curry rice, simple dinner plates, mint candy, bear sandwich cookies and... sliced smoked ham.
The space of the cart was suddenly reduced by half.
Next, the two went to the fresh vegetable section, planning to buy ingredients for lunch and dinner, and to prepare lunch boxes for tomorrow.
Turnips, tomatoes, beef brisket, potatoes, live shrimps, sterilized eggs, carrots, purple cabbage, onions, lettuce, chicken breast...
"Tomato stewed beef brisket for lunch?"
Miss Miyano came back carrying a head of cabbage. Seeing the vegetables that Makoto Sakaki had picked, she asked curiously:
"Do you want to cook?"
"Um."
Pushing his sunglasses, Sakaki Makoto smiled mysteriously:
“I haven’t cooked for a long time...”
"If I don't practice, my hands will become numb."
"Anything else you want to buy?"
"It seems that there is no salt at home, and the soy sauce is also running out."
"Let's go."
"I have to pack a suitcase and bring a change of clothes when I go back."
"I'll clean up and you cook."
"What would you like to eat for tomorrow's lunch?"
"sandwich."
Chatting and laughing, the two grabbed a bag of table salt and ended their shopping trip.
Hattori Heiji and the other two had already paid their bills and were waiting at the cashier counter.
