Chapter 31 Cooking Skills
There is actually a young woman who is not the client waiting for Jyouno Hisaji? !
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a bomb dropped among the guests of the Poirot Café.
Regardless of gender, age or status, from Azusa Enomoto to Conan Edogawa, everyone looked at her in shock.
As for those customers who had briefly dealt with Jyouno Hisaji, they all had distorted expressions that were a bit scary, as they wanted to give advice but couldn't open their mouths because they didn't want to say anything to strangers or ask about other people's private affairs without permission.
The brown-haired woman was startled by the scene, and she grabbed the handle of her bag tightly, and asked hesitantly, "Is there a problem?"
Children don't have as many concerns as adults. Yoshida Ayumi pulled the brown-haired woman's hand and said anxiously:
"Big sister, don't like Detective Tiaoye! You will die!"
This terrifying love advice from an elementary school girl, which was given with great courage and seriousness, caused coughs to be heard throughout the cafe.
Conan Edogawa couldn't help but twitch his lips, "No, although he is abnormal, he won't die."
"People who didn't see it with their own eyes are not qualified to comment. Mitsuhiko, Genta, do you think Detective Jouno tied the person who made a passionate confession to the roof of the car?"
Yuan Tai scratched his head: "Is that a confession?"
Mitsuhiko: "That's true. They did confess their love all the way, but they didn't die in the end. Otherwise, Detective Jouno would have committed a crime."
"But this is so tragic!"
"Thank you for worrying about me, but I'm not a suitor of Detective Jouno." The brown-haired woman gently rubbed Yoshida Ayumi's head and smiled, "But I'm very interested in Detective Jouno's story. It seems that the one you know is not like what he said in the news. Can you tell me about him?"
"As a reward for helping me, you can order as many desserts as you want, as long as you don't waste any."
The group sat around the table. Haibara Ai was the only one not present from the Junior Detective Team. Ever since Toru Amuro came to work at the Poirot Café, she rarely participated in gatherings in this store.
As the ordered desserts gradually arrived, the Junior Detective Team had already started talking about Jyouno Hisaji.
Hisashi Jyouno didn't show up at the Café Poirot very often, and he was always running around Japan, so they didn't have much time to interact with Hisashi Jyouno.
Starting with Kojima Genta, the chubby little boy thought about it and could only say, "I don't remember much about these things. It was the day when we went to the forest park and there was a car accident. Detective Tsuchiya tied the two men to the roof of the car and drove away. The car seemed to fly."
Mitsuhiko reminded, "There's something else. Detective Jouno is very arrogant. Whether it's us or anyone else, he never responds when we greet him. He only talks to Mr. Amuro in the cafe. He's an rude weirdo."
Ayumi holds the opposite view: "Detective Jouno is so versatile and has such a unique personality. He is busy helping so many people every day. There are so many reports about him. He just doesn't have the energy to pay attention to people who don't need his help. But he is not suitable for love, absolutely."
Conan also mixed in with the kids, without feeling out of place: "I met Detective Jouno even less often, and we never talked. I felt he was weird, but I don't know anything else."
He secretly denied his lie.
Fake.
In fact, after Kamijo Hisashi appeared in the Poirot Café, this detective who was related to Amuro Toru and was not sure whether he was a member of the Black Organization, immediately became alert and watched secretly.
The benefits of an organization training a famous detective are obvious: he can cover up evidence, get in touch with certain cases, and gain the trust of the police.
At first, Conan was just instinctively alert because he was in an unsafe situation, but when he learned from Mr. Akai that Hisashi Jyouno was the code member Hennessy, he had a new idea.
Mr. Akai advised him not to contact Jyouno Hisaji, saying that this man was like a time bomb and could explode at any time and place.
But Conan also has his own considerations.
Even if the goals of the opposing organization are the same, both Mr. Akai and Toru Amuro will only selectively tell him some information.
The public security officer Toru Amuro specifically took intelligence from him and was extremely stingy when giving back information.
Conan understands that they each have their own power and it is impossible for them to tell him everything. He also needs to get rid of the current situation and gain more chips to fight against the organization.
A strange codename member who seems to be kind and has secret ties to the organization.
As long as you can ensure your own safety, it is a good thing to be able to get intelligence.
——The above is Conan’s reasonable assumption.
After all, once people come into contact, most of the other party will not be on guard against a child, so you can get some information more or less, and a lot of intelligence does not need to be extracted from the conversation.
However, the rational idea turned into a shattered dream.
There is nothing normal about this person, Hisashi Jyouno!
It's not like he can't hear you when you greet him, he'll just glance at you and then ignore you, let alone talk to you.
His appearances in Café Poirot are also irregular, usually only for a short while, and he only talks to Toru Amuro, as if he is collecting some kind of reward.
Occasionally, I would stay a little longer to help with some small chores in the café, causing chaos and being kicked out.
As for tracking?
No kidding, judging from the reports, this guy can appear all over Japan in one day!
Conan tried to follow him several times, but he would suddenly lose track of him. Sometimes there was a figure passing in front of him, and sometimes there was no one around, but Jyouno Hisaji just disappeared.
He had no choice but to give up tracking.
But this does not mean that he has given up on getting intelligence from Hennessy.
Not to mention the importance of intelligence, just the fact that both of them are detectives, if he was thrown off so easily by the other party, doesn't it seem like Jyouno Hisaji is more powerful than Kudo Shinichi?
Under Conan's observation, the broken thread was finally found.
Hisashi Jyouno also has a fixed whereabouts.
If he didn't show up at Café Poirot during the day, then around four in the morning, the frequency of Jyouno Hisaji going to Toru Amuro's house would be slightly higher.
So, after confirming the situation during the day, Conan found an excuse to stay at Dr. Agasa's house, but actually lived in his own home. Then he went out in the middle of the night to install eavesdropping devices and find a good position to observe Toru Amuro's house.
At 3:50, Hisashi Jyouno appeared.
It wasn't that Conan, who was in high spirits after drinking two cups of coffee, discovered the other party's whereabouts at a glance, but that this guy directly climbed up the wall of the building!
That movement, that speed, is even more agile than a gecko!
Moreover, Hisaji Jyouno did not need to rely on windows or other places for support or foothold. He specialized in climbing on walls where there were no obstacles. Covered in black in the night, he quickly climbed to the window of Toru Amuro's house.
For some reason, there is a layer of iron bars welded to the windows.
Conan, who was already petrified and vomiting his soul, watched the black-haired young man crawling on the window like a strange giant slime. It didn't seem like he was rubbing against the window, but against an invisible air wall.
After repeating these movements a certain number of times, half of the body was stuck in, and then it jumped into the window smoothly.
Conan's eavesdropping device is not yet good enough to be installed in Amuro Toru's house. The head of public security is too sensitive in this regard.
It was originally installed in the corridor, but unexpectedly, Jyouno Hisaji didn't follow the usual route, so it didn't work and no sound from the room could be heard.
But not long after, he saw Hisashi Jyouno coming down from the main entrance of the building with a little white dog in his arms. It was Hello from Toru Amuro's family.
Conan: “?”
He was extremely confused by this series of actions, but he still followed.
I followed him in confusion all the way to a park, where I saw Nono Hisahi calling out a group of stray cats and dogs that were obviously well-cared for and neutered, as if he had a furry harem.
then.
Hisashi Jyouno pulled out a sniper rifle from somewhere.
Start shooting birds and pigeons.
After that, I picked up the fallen poultry meat to feed the cats and dogs. While feeding them, I petted them and heard the meows and barks. I felt so happy.
Conan: “…”
Conan: “????”
He was in a particularly trance that night, and did not follow when Hisashi Jouno sent Haro back.
I still get a headache when I think about it now, as if my brain is being pressed to the ground and rubbed repeatedly.
Besides, how could Mr. Amuro allow Haro to be taken out for a snack in the middle of the night? He is very good at taking care of himself and his dog.
So, what happened to Mr. Amuro who failed to stop the dog thief at that time?
In addition to the Young Detective Team, the guests in the cafe also couldn't help but join in the Jyouno Hisaji Roast.
This includes but is not limited to the fact that this guy doesn't even look at the enthusiastic fans who come to his door, and when delivering food, he can jump directly over the tables of the customers who are dining. Once, when Amuro Toru took a leave, he took the initiative to cook for Enomoto Azusa, but ended up serving half-cooked whole ingredients...
There are so many things that it is truly outrageous.
Logically, he should have been complained about long ago, but on the one hand, he is not an employee of Café Poirot, and on the other hand, it is understandable that customers find these behaviors too weird but also normal at the same time.
I guess everyone is like this.
Otherwise, given Jyouno Hisaji's reputation and style of doing things, he would have been criticized to death long ago.
Conan: “…”
Do you guys want to listen to what you are saying? If you really think it is normal, you won't complain, okay!
The brown-haired woman listened with a smile all the time. Apparently she was lucky, because when most of the customers in the store had left, she was lucky enough to see the black-haired young man appear at the door.
Surprisingly, Hisashi Jyouno did not walk past her and go straight to Toru Amuro with disdain, but walked towards her instead.
The brown-haired woman was a little nervous at first, but when she saw the detective who looked exactly like the one in her memory, she suddenly relaxed.
"Detective Jouno, long time no see. I'm Rika Yada. I wonder if you still remember me."
"Thank you very much for accepting my commission five years ago. The case caused a big stir at the time and affected our lives to some extent. I was unable to express my gratitude to you in person. After that, I was busy taking care of Grandma Youjiang. It was not until I attended the funerals of Youjiang Haozhi and Youjiang's grandmother that I realized that the reward I gave you was too little."
"But I was really powerless in terms of material resources. Therefore, I thought that you, Detective Tiaoye, seemed to want to learn the cooking skills of that restaurant, but they were unwilling to teach you. So I became an apprentice in my spare time and tried out some good recipes."
“Do you still need these now?”
The player looked at the blue exclamation mark on Rika Yada's head. Although he didn't recognize that the other person was the brown squirrel from before, this did not prevent him from responding very emotionally:
"Of course."
"Do you know how long I've been waiting for you?"
"I've been looking for you, my cooking skills instructor!"
