"This looks spicy, but it doesn't taste spicy at all." After finishing the meal, Conan looked at Xiaolan who was eager to try it and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's not spicy at all."
Seeing that Conan, a little kid, said it was not spicy, Xiaolan and Kazuha also tried it.
After taking it in your mouth, the first thing you feel is not the spiciness, but the fragrance that fills your mouth!
That is the unique aroma that only chili peppers have!
The next thing that comes next is the spiciness, but that slight spiciness doesn’t make people feel uncomfortable, instead it gives people a feeling of complementing each other.
The spicy taste quickly conquered several people, and they began to concentrate on putting things into the spicy pot.
Tang Ze and Ayako on the side did not fight for it. Instead, they started eating from the clear soup pot, only occasionally eating some food like beef balls in the spicy pot.
But the glances that the four people did not see were so meaningful.
After eating two plates of beef and various meatballs, Conan and the other three began to look a little strange.
They continued to eat the food on the trays, the sweat on their foreheads began to increase, and their expressions became more and more distorted.
And they started drinking beverages more and more frequently.
"I can't take it anymore, it's getting spicier!" Xiaolan was the first one who couldn't stand it anymore, and Heye followed closely behind and quickly stopped, starting to drink juice continuously.
"Yeah, it wasn't spicy at first!" Hattori Heiji looked at Tang Ze and said, "Are you trying to trick us again!?"
"No, you see, neither of us felt anything." Tang Ze said as he took out a few shrimps from the spicy pot and started eating them directly.
"But why are we so spicy?" He Ye was suspicious.
"Just don't eat so much at once." Ayako smiled as she fished some food out of the soup pot and handed it to Kazuha: "Eat some soup with sesame paste, it will be ready soon."
"I've been cheated again." Hattori Heiji said depressedly when he saw this.
"We didn't expect that there would be this kind of pepper that would keep adding more and more."
Conan fanned his lips and said depressedly: "And if you noticed the way Detective Tang Ze and the others took turns eating, you wouldn't have been fooled."
Upon hearing this, Ayako and Tang Ze looked at each other and started laughing.
Seeing this, the four people didn't realize they had been tricked, and began to denounce the two people's unscrupulous behavior.
As for the two people who were denounced, their expressions were happy and they didn't show any remorse at all. Instead, they smiled like foxes stealing chickens and were in an extremely happy mood.
The four of them were even more depressed now, and in the end they could only turn their appetite into strength, looking like they were going to eat so much that their wallets would bleed.
Unfortunately, this was destined to be impossible. Several people ate until their stomachs were full, but Tang Ze didn't even blink when paying the bill, and didn't feel any regret at all.
Of course, during the meal, Tang Ze also told Xiaolan that he would take an apprentice to "intern" together, so he would ask for leave for him.
In view of Conan's own wishes and his always first place results, Xiaolan readily agreed.
After eating and drinking, Tang Ze and the other two said goodbye to the three people who planned to go shopping and drove towards Gunma Prefecture.
"I hope that going to Gunma will be fruitful."
Looking at the constantly moving scenery outside the window, Hattori Heiji said: "I have already told Kazuha's mother about what happened here, and her aunt also asked me to convey her gratitude to you."
"This is the third time I've been thanked like this." Tang Ze said helplessly.
"Haha, but you also have to understand our feelings." Hattori Heiji could also understand Tang Ze's feelings and said with a smile.
"Okay, thanks I got it."
Tang Ze looked ahead and said, "Let's take advantage of this time on the road to sort out the information on the case."
"By the way, do you know the names of the eight adopted sons and daughters of the Inufushi family?"
Conan looked at Hattori Heiji and said, "Assuming that the pearl was left by Mr. Shinichi, then the most common way is to refer to a name."
"I wrote down all their names before."
Hearing this, Hattori Heiji pulled out his phone and said, "The eight of them are named Shinichi, Koko, Saki, Chiaki, Migako, Zenya, Hotaru, and Yuki."
As for their names, it seems that they were chosen by the president Inufu Tsuneyoshi who passed away five years ago.
"Who are those who passed away?" Conan, who didn't know the situation, asked.
"The first one is Uncle Yingci, who was chased by the "demon dog" and eventually fell off a cliff."
After recounting the scene of the other person's death in detail, Hattori Heiji said, "As for the second person, it was Miss Migako who unfortunately passed away due to the burning of the difficult-to-burn grass near the swamp.
The third person attacked was Mr. Shinichi, whom we met today. He was the only one who survived the attack.”
"Three out of eight." Tang Ze sighed, "That means we have to look for the criminal among the remaining five. I hope everything goes well."
In the past, it was always the "classic three-choice one", but this time it is "five-choice one". It not only shows that the difficulty of the case has increased, but also actually reveals a bloody future.
Because this is a serial murder case, in addition to Mr. Shinichi, subsequent criminals will definitely continue to commit crimes.
Therefore, they not only had to find the criminal from among the five people, but also had to keep an eye on the criminal as much as possible during this period to prevent him from committing the crime.
This is also a difficult situation for them. After all, as the saying goes, you can guard against thieves in your own home even if you are on guard day and night.
Even though there were three of them, they were still under a lot of pressure because they didn't know when and how the criminal would commit the crime.
