Cheng Shi is cookingββ
Since it is for people to prepare a supper, of course, it should be lighter and smaller. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's best to have another bowl of hot soup to warm your stomach, so say... The careful and considerate Cheng Shi took out the best delicacy she treasured in the depths of the refrigerator - quick-frozen three fresh stuffed wontons~
"I'm not afraid of trouble, the wontons are delicious, and they must be hungry now, so making wontons is more time-saving." Sung Sil tossed shredded potatoes while looking for an excuse for his laziness.
β¦β¦
During this time, Mori and his party also rushed back to the public hall, and as soon as they pushed open the door of the piano room, they saw that Hideo Kawashima's body had been moved.
"The corpse has been moved!" Conan's eyes widened and he exclaimed.
"What!?" Maori Kogoro hurriedly pressed the shoulder of the old policeman on the side, and his voice was anxious: "Have you seen who moved the body?" β
The old policeman slowly pushed the thick glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "Of course it's me, if I keep maintaining that posture, even the Bodhisattva will feel pitiful." β
Hearing this, the faces of Maori Kogoro and Conan turned black at the same time. Maori Kogoro rubbed his temples and sighed: "It's really nerve-wracking, the scene hasn't been verified yet." β
Conan, who was checking the piano on the side, exclaimed again: "Strange! Uncle, that sheet music is missing? β
"How is that possible?" Mori Kogoro hurried to Conan's side, helping to find the score.
"Oh, you say that sheet music, it's with meβ" The policeman unhurriedly pulled the sheet music out of his arms.
"You guy..."Mori Kogoro took the score frantically and frantically.
ββ¦β¦β
"Knock knock..."
Chengshi pushed open the door of the piano room and found that the three Maori were discussing the case with the old policeman in the room.
"It's time to eat~"
Cheng Shi smiled and took out the lunch box in the incubator, filled a big bowl of wontons for everyone, and then took out the freshly made cold shredded potatoes and his own pickled small whitebait and placed them in front of everyone as a side dish.
"It smells so good!"
"Goo... It's delicious~" Conan praised from the bottom of his heart.
"Sister Chengshi is so amazing~ The person who marries you in the future will definitely be very happy." Xiaolan smiled and sent her blessings.
"Huh... Ha (qu) ha (ni) ha (mei). Cheng Shi smiled wryly.
"Sister Chengshi, don't be shy." It was rare for Conan to see Chengshi, a black-bellied woman, have an embarrassed expression, so he naturally won't let go of this opportunity to retaliate.
"Hehehe..." Cheng Shi smiled expressionlessly, you did your own death in the trouser pocket washing machine, don't blame me. Thinking of this, Cheng Shi brewed some words, pretended to be a gossip expression and asked, "Xiaolan, you should have a boyfriend at your age, right?" β
The smile on Chengshi's face was incomparably sweet and lovely, but Conan suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart......
"Huh...?" Xiaolan blushed and quickly shook her head, but Kudo Shinichi's confident and handsome smile always lingered in her mind.
"Just... Not at all. Xiaolan lowered her head and said.
"Looking at your expression, you know that there must be one~" Chengshi squeezed his eyes at Xiaolan.
Maori Kogoro also saw Xiaolan's shy expression, and shouted while swallowing wontons: "I said it shouldn't be that annoying detective boy!" β
"I... I have Shinichi and I..."Xiaolan's cheeks were hot.
Seeing Xiaolan's performance, Conan's cheeks began to flush, and he was snickering in his heart: Ha... It turns out that Xiaolan likes me so much.
"Where's that kid? Play disappears every day, and I don't know where I ran to! Maori Kogoro's dissatisfied voice rang out, and he ate the wontons with a 'whirring' sound, as if the food in his mouth was the bastard detective kid who fascinated Xiaolan.
"That's right, Xiaolan, Uncle he has a point. It's hard to draw the skin and bones of a tiger, and you don't know your heart if you know your face..."Cheng Shi patted Xiaolan on the shoulder and said earnestly, "God knows if there are any other girls you like about that washing machine!" β
Conan: "Don't worry, Sister Chengshi, Brother Shinichi is very single-minded." (You black-bellied young woman has spread rumors for me!) οΌβ
"That's it, that's it, that kid knows it's very attentive at a glance!" Mori Kogoro and Narumi formed a united front.
Conan: "How's that, Uncle Maori. (Hey, hey!) It's obviously you, the uncle, who spends the most, no wonder you will separate from Aunt Yingli! οΌβ
"Wait... We didn't talk about you, what are you trying to defend here? Chengshi looked at Conan out of the corner of his eye.
Worst... Conan had no choice but to take out his housekeeping skills - selling cute skills: "No, the new brother is very good, you will understand after getting along with him." β
"Enough! Let's stop talking about it! Xiao Lan blushed and raised her small fist, and then, Xiao Lan's fist fell 'gently' to the ground, and when she raised her hand, there was a shallow pit on the ground.
Seeing this, Narumi, Mori Kogoro, and Conan swallowed their saliva in unison: "Hey! β
"......" was followed by a discussion of the case, and Cheng Shi listened drowsily.
"Anyway, in order to prevent the murderer from continuing his next murderous plan, we will keep vigil here." Mori Kogoro thought about it for a while and made a decision.
Seeing that everyone else nodded in agreement, Chengshi thought about it and thought that he had nothing to do anyway, so he just took advantage of the time to cultivate a relationship with these protagonists, so he said, "Then I'll go get the futon." β
"I'm sorry for you."
"It's okay, it's better to solve this matter as soon as possible."
β¦β¦
During the vigil at the public hall......
Chengshi and several people sat quietly in the piano room wrapped in quilts.
"Does Sister Narumi know something about that Mr. Aso?" Conan's mind is full of cases and... Case.
"(Huh)?" Chengshi was stunned, he didn't expect Conan to suddenly ask himself this question, and after remembering for a moment, he replied, "I only know that the former village chief who died, Mr. Kawashima, as well as Mr. Kuroiwa and Mr. Nishimoto, were childhood playmates with Mr. Aso. β
"Playmate..."
"As for the rest... I don't know. Cheng Shi wrapped himself in the quilt and clasped his hands on his knees, "Anyway, I think this matter must be related to these people, so it's better to interrogate them directly tomorrow." β
"Huh... I'm so sleepy! ~" Mori Kogoro yawned listlessly.
"Daddy!" Xiaolan angrily pushed Maori Kogoro, "You are the one who put forward the vigil opinion!" Don't let me fall asleep first! β
Maori Kogoro looked at Xiaolan's slightly clenched fists, and quickly nodded in agreement... Really, it was not good for her to learn anything at the beginning, she had to learn some karate.
"Daddy! Are you thinking of something rude? Xiao Lan frowned.
"Why... How could it be? Mori Kogoro waved his hand wryly.
"That's right... It's boring, I'll play the piano tunes for you~" Chengshi proposed.
"Sister Chengshi can also play the piano?"
"It's okay." Chengshi stood up, walked to the piano, and sat down bent. The next moment, the temperament of the whole person is a change.
Feeling the familiar sensation conveyed by his fingertips, Chengshi's fingers began to dance gracefully......
Perhaps because of his father's occupation before his death, Cheng Shi practiced playing the piano hard. Therefore, there is a lot of knowledge and skills about the piano in Chengshi's mind, and it is really easy to play a few songs.
Hands nimbly shifted positions, striking the keys, and the beautiful notes began to dance and hover around the room, and everyone was immersed in it.
Chengshi hummed softly along with the melody: "I can't help you predict, it's useless to ask for everything." But how reluctant I am, my friends love so bitterly. Love can be touched by joy without asking whether it is right or wrong. If he always holds an umbrella for others, why don't you wait in the rain for him......"
"Sister Chengshi plays well." Xiaolan clenched her hands into fists.
"yes, that's amazing." Conan sighed, he couldn't imagine that this black-bellied woman would have such a side...... At this moment, Cheng Shi's impression in his heart has greatly improved.
"What's this piece called? Sister Chengshi! Conan cast a curious look.
Chengshi stopped playing, turned around, and looked at Xiaolan and Conan with a light smile: "This song is called "Happy Breakup", give it to Xiaolan, I hope you can leave that high school detective who plays missing all day and find a new boyfriend!" β
"Huh? β¦β¦ Thank... Thank you. Xiaolan lost her mind for a while, and just responded subconsciously in a daze.
Suddenly, Conan's previous good impression of Chengshi disappeared. He clenched his fists with a dark face, gritted his teeth and made a soft noise, Black belly girl, I'm not done with you......
