Chapter 12, Section 1, Breaking the Mystery of the Mystery Troupe's Kitchen Master Being Killed

After the Yuyingtang case was solved, a small group of Japanese soldiers returned, and the small train was finally temporarily peaceful for a few days.

However, Poon's mother received unanimous complaints from her daughters, saying that she was too laissez-faire, that she did not care about danger, and that she was in fact not responsible for her juniors.

Bao Yu was afraid that she would not be happy if she was serious, so he thought of a good way and told Nina to report to her superiors. said that she wanted to learn from the teacher, and now she is solving the case alone in Pudong, and she is getting older, so it is inconvenient to be with her. First, when she keeps her money on the side, and secondly, she teaches by word and deed, and the harvest must be not small, which is beneficial to her work.

In view of the fact that the old lady has been solving strange cases in the concession again and again, she has helped them a lot, and the people who owe her a lot of favor should be approved in both public and private affairs. Therefore, Nina came to the detective's side in a grand manner, and it was called "salary training".

At the same time, he also took the spirit dog Doggett away, which could save her life at the critical moment and play an excellent role in protecting her body.

Bao's mother was naturally happy, and when she arrived in the afternoon, she took her to a big dinner in the evening to express her welcome.

The two of them took a small train to Chuansha City, where there was a famous Bengang restaurant "Little Eight Plates", the chef's hand art was not said. Authentic Pudong tastes are now rare, and the dishes are not only exquisite, but also innovative. The flowers and animals carved from the horn are very legendary, especially the rare birds and beasts such as phoenixes and peacocks.

The name of the meal is also the same, what are "Pig Bajie Kicking Football", "Brotherhood", "Grandma's Red Roasted Meat", "Strange Fish White Jade Soup", "Double Noodles Golden Yellow", "Wild Vegetable Handmade", "Yellow Robe Monster" and "Pearl Sticky".

In fact, it is: pig-hoofed eggs, monkey head mushrooms, stir-fried celery with sea cucumbers, red braised pork that is so crispy that the toothless old man can bite it, ang stinging fish tofu soup, fried noodles, cabbage dumplings, pumpkin cakes and wine dumplings, so ordinary that they are not ordinary, and another dish of red braised meat bones is ordered to bring to Doggett.

The food tastes excellent, as Shanghainese say, "no salty words".

The two of them ate happily, as if there was no one around. Nina was even more excited, dancing and talking, and reported the recent situation to the teacher in detail, giving herself a sense of accomplishment. If she hadn't rushed home for the last train at 8 o'clock, she would have had to talk about it.

Walking out of the store, it is at the crossroads, here is the hottest street center of Chuansha, neon lights strange land, cars and horses, night markets are full, known as Little Shanghai is not a lie.

Nina pointed to a restaurant in the east and said, "This restaurant has a strange name, how can it be called "Yisheng"? ”

Pou's mother told her: "This is Japanese cuisine, and the meaning of "Yisheng" is also so good that "no salty words", in a word! "As he spoke, he walked south to the train station.

"Oh! But no matter how good it is, I don't eat it, I hate Japanese devils the most, and none of them are good! "The daughter-in-law died tragically for no reason, and she has always been haunted.

Someone interjected: "Yang Da Huan, you can't say that!" Someone interjected, and it turned out to be a young man in his twenties, walking behind them.

"Take me as an example, I am also a Japanese overseas Chinese, and there are still good people among the common people!" He opened the door to see the mountain, and he was not afraid that people would have a bad feeling for him.

The old lady had no good impression of the Japanese and did not give a damn about it.

Nina's temperament is "ten thousand people", and she accosted him: "What are you doing?" Why don't you go in China! ”

"Don't say it so hard to hear! I'm a chef of "Ichisei" Japanese cuisine, a great good citizen. I just got home from work and I heard you talking, and I couldn't help but interject, I'm sorry. You two are the famous Detective Bao Mu and the outstanding Western Detective, right? Please take care of you when you meet for the first time! He bowed.

What did Mother Bow think about? Walk forward from your own care; When Nina Ai spoke, she accosted, "Are you right, you live here?" ”

"Exactly, it's the "Yamato Garden" in front, can the two of you stay for a moment and sign a name? ”

Mother Bao ignored it and said beautifully: "It's empty! We're going to catch the train! Nina, hurry up! She had no choice but to follow the teacher in three steps and two steps, and take the last train back to her residence in Wu Lu Town.

Nothing for the night.

The next morning, the old lady got up early as usual and kicked her legs in the yard, moving her body and bones, and Nina was still asleep, and the phone rang.

Who had been calling here a long time ago? Mother Po answered the phone and simply didn't believe her ears, it turned out to be Officer Luo, who had not been in contact for many days!

"Hey, it's me! How did you get here? What? Yes! Is there such a thing? Uh-huh...... Oh! In that case, I had to come to the scene and see the clues. That's right, Nina had a conversation with him last night! The car came to pick us up in half an hour? Then urge the ghost to get up immediately, hurry up for breakfast, and see you later! ”

The sister-in-law who was waiting for her had already put her breakfast on the table, rice porridge, meat floss, pickles, salted duck eggs and yellow mud snails, old flowers. Nina wakes up late, drinks milk and nibbles in the car, and listens to her talk about the contents of the phone; Doggett obediently curled up to the side to recuperate, and he didn't claw for many days, so he panicked!

According to Officer Luo, this morning's Chuansha Sub-Bureau reported that a murder case occurred in the city last night, and the deceased was You Wuzhi, the chef of a well-known local restaurant, "Little Eight Dishes."

The suspect was initially identified as his roommate, Fumisaku Sato, the chef of the "Ipsei" Japanese restaurant, but he swore that there was alibi evidence, including Detective Bao Mu and Yoda Nina.

How could this Japanese have anything to do with the detectives? Studied but cannot comprehend. Therefore, when she called and contacted the detective office, Bao Yatou said that she and the spirit dog were on Chuanshawu Road, so she ran around to find it, and the specific situation was contacted by Officer Zhu of the Criminal Affairs Department of the local sub-bureau, and the car was sent by someone.

When I passed by Yamato Court last night, I realized that this residential area was unusual, and the second-floor apartments were all of different sizes. It is divided into four buildings: "Erjialou", "Sixian Lou", "Bajun Lou" and "Sixteen Jun Lou".

The murder took place in the Sixian Building, and the upper floor was a four-room house with a toilet and a bathroom.

At the bottom floor, however, two private clinics were unusually opened, one for Chinese medicine and one for Western medicine, and advertisements were plastered on the walls of both sides, such as "Laodao Brand Cigarette", "Meili Brand Cigarette", "Zhang Xiaoquan Scissors", "Longhu Brand Rendan, Ten Drops of Water", "Mobil Oil", "Zhengguang Harmony Soda", "Pelmon Western Packaging", "Fuxin Flour", "Wang Kai Photography", and so on, and so on.

The same is true of the other three buildings, which are described as a little bit of a cover, but it was later learned that this was originally a Japanese trading house, and the four buildings were rebuilt from warehouses. Since each room had an independent guard, it was relatively high-end at the time.

In principle, a resident lives in a single room, and basically they are all single. However, You Wuzhi and Sato Fumisaku privately dug a rectangular hole in the wall, saying that the two were both peers and the chief chefs of the two restaurants, so they exchanged experiences in actual operation and innovation of famous dishes and famous dishes, and there were good reasons to hear it.

In addition, the relationship between the two is also very good, in the words that the Chinese often say, "things gather beasts and beasts are grouped". Having it done, the landlord had no choice but to let it go. Tell them that when they check out, they must return to their original state.

Now one has died inexplicably, and the other has naturally become a serious suspect, and he can't hide.

Yesterday You Wuzhi rested, and Fumisaku Sato's working hours were from 10 o'clock to 7 o'clock in the evening, and he did not leave the restaurant for half a step during this time; After work, I had a working dinner, and when I left, I met a detective on the way, and the time was completely in sync, and there was no zĂ i loophole. That is, he did have strong evidence of an alibi.

According to the forensic examination, You Wuzhi's time of death was between 2 and 4 p.m., and he was stabbed to death in the back by the gangsters with a sharp weapon.

The corpse was still in front of the desk, waiting for Bao's mother to come and investigate.

Nina is now a professional detective, and when she arrives at the scene, she takes pictures to check the cause of the victim's death, and is sure that she was killed by a sharp weapon. I can't get it yet.

Judging from the facial expressions of the deceased, there were no traces of stabbing or fighting before his death, and he appeared very calm, and the murderer should have been an acquaintance, and there was no doubt about it.

But Sato did have evidence of an alibi, and the detectives at the precinct had questioned the manager and staff of the restaurant twice last night and this morning, and they unanimously confirmed that he had not left. The murderer must have someone else, and he is also an acquaintance, it's too unbelievable!

Despite the suspicions, he could not draw conclusions without evidence, so he had to go to work as usual.

Another discovery was that a rough rope had been tied to the edge of a window deep in the house and dragged to the ground outside the wall, and it was obvious that the murderer had entered through the front door and fled through the window after killing someone, which was also beyond doubt.

There is an interesting episode in which Nina eats a pillow bread and drinks a bottle of cold milk in a hurry in the morning, and after investigating the scene for a while, she suddenly feels sick to her stomach, so she uses the toilet in Sato's room, washes it with water, and finds that the water in the tank is pale red, and there is a sample of the deceased's blood in the water.

This was a heavy discovery, and Mother Po immediately determined that the murderer was Sato Fumisaku, but this point alone was far from enough, and further careful investigation was required, and without real evidence, Sato could not be found guilty, and the case became a mystery.

Doggett, however, had a good heart, and barked a few times at the window, and Mother Bon, knowing that it had found a clue, patted it on the head and allowed it to move.

Without hesitation, the spirit dog jumped out of the window, turned around a few times, and roared upwards a few more times, meaning to ask his master to go down.

The old lady immediately rolled up her sleeves and prepared to go down, Officer Zhu, the detectives, and the police were startled, isn't this a game of fate? He didn't answer anything.

Who knew that her old man smiled slightly: "It's nothing, it's a piece of cake!" You're busy! Nina, you walk the main road to meet at the "Yisheng" restaurant, and you will not see each other! ”

The crowd watched as she climbed out of the window, and there was a stinky river outside, and a man and a dog walked along the river in a northeasterly direction.

After lunch, the two masters and apprentices returned to the scene of the murder - the fourth building, and excitedly told the prosecutor that she had already understood the murderer's modus operandi, and only needed to wait for a few peasant brothers to find the murder weapon, and the evidence could be closed! ”

Everyone was surprised and delighted, and it was unbelievable that the divine detective Bao Mu really had great powers and was not famous, and she could mobilize local farmers to work for her.

Outside the window, there are a total of three boats carpeting the river mud in the river, "turning over the bottom", looking for murder weapons, and they are gratuitous and voluntary.

Others did not know that she had followed the phone call given to her by her father-in-law, Lao Li, and asked the gang of traitors led by the underground party to mobilize the masses to help. Don't even think about it!

The good news is that the case was quickly solved with such kung fu, and in less than 24 hours, it must be a great achievement to report it, and everyone is happy.

Looking back at the old lady, she was already asleep in her old age and sitting on the chair against the wall. I got up in the morning and worked non-stop for most of the day, it was very hard, and it was so hard for her to take a short nap in time!

Nina stayed by her side to protect the law, taking care of others to step on her feet and whisper softly, not to disturb her, until someone shouted outside the window: "Old lady Bao, something has been found, it has been found!" ”

Mother Bao woke up suddenly, and couldn't wait: "Bring it to me, quickly!" ”

Nina brought the so-called thing, a rolled bleached shirt, black and stinky from the stinking water. When I opened it, there was the word "Yisheng" on the left chest, and everyone could tell at a glance that it was the work clothes of the shop's chef or waiter, and the placket clearly had a group of blood.

In addition, there was a thin, thin short-edged long-handled knife wrapped in his clothes, and his mother was happy with the shape, like a treasure: "That's it, that's it!" ”

At this time, everyone present understood that this sharp knife was a murder weapon, and that the dress might be Sato's. Mother Po is out of the horse, a top man! In such a short period of time, there are eyebrows, it is precisely the train that is not pushed, Mount Tai is not piled up, and the name of the detective is not blown by the world!

There is a point, little Japan has evidence of an alibi! How can this be explained?

Bao's mother also said: "Officer Zhu, if I don't guess wrong, the blood on my clothes is the victim You Wuzhi, please test it immediately." If that's the case, you're ready to try the murderer! ”

"Good, great! I'm going to send someone to send it for testing! As you say, the little devil is definitely in danger! ”

A one-hour report came out, and the blood was indeed You Daxuan's.

The team simply opened the "Yisheng" restaurant, ordered it to close down, sealed the front and back doors, detained the kitchen and the store manager, and the mother of the detective announced the results of the murder investigation and arrested the murderer.

"Well, the person involved in this case, Fumisaku Sato, did not step out of the store during his shift yesterday, and the store manager and colleagues present testified that this is indeed the case. As for his "encounter" with me and my students on the road after work, and even pulling out the two of us as alibi witnesses for him, it was really a "snake painting", and this was self-defeating, and there were no three hundred taels of silver here! ”

"Please note that the phrase "didn't go out of the door" I just said does not include him jumping out of the window of the bathroom! "That's it. There was a lot of silence

"I asked him if he had been on the トイレ (Japanese: toilet) that day, and several people said that he had diarrhea, and he stayed in the health room for a long time before coming out, and locked the door upside down, about a quarter of an hour, affecting the entry of others. That's also a fact, right? ”

"I've been in the toilet for a long time, what does this have to do with You Jun's death? It's even more nonsense to go out on the wall! ”

"yes, yes!" Someone in the store responded to him.

The old lady ignored it and continued, "This gives you time to commit the crime!" You jumped out of the window and ran along the river, and when you reached the fork of the river, you gave the boy who was watching the boat a piece of candy and told him to pass the boat over and let you cross the fork, did that happen? I also walked this way, without any candy, and gave the child two copper plates to buy for himself, and one man and one dog were able to pass. ”

"But then I gave me a few more plates of bronze, and he promised to be with him as he was called, and to testify in court, so you don't have to be cunning. What do you do there during work hours? ”

Sato rolled his eyes, he couldn't think of the old lady being so harmful, and even this matter was investigated clearly, he was completely speechless, and he was silent.

"You don't say I'll say it for you, for the sake of murder! If you go out of the main door of the "Yisheng" restaurant, go west for 3 minutes to the "Xiao Ba Pek" hotel, and then face south for 4 minutes to "Yamatoen", and it takes 7 minutes to walk at right angles of the main road. ”

"Walking along the river, or "string", according to the "Pythagorean theorem", takes only 5 minutes, which is not only time-saving but also secluded, and no one can see it, which is exactly what you want. But there is neither a bottom nor a window at the back of the house, so you tie a rough rope to the window in advance as a tool to climb the wall to enter the house. So it's no surprise that the district guards didn't see you coming back halfway! ”

"The victim was not surprised to see the acquaintance, so you stabbed him in the back, using the same weapon as the knife in the store. But it's not the kind of raw fish slices, the blade is wide and thin; It is a specialized tool for processing puffer fish, and it is long and sharp, and it is about 8 inches including the handle. ”

"In order to prove that I want to be reliable, Nina and I came here at noon today to order the sashimi of puffer fish and go down to the kitchen to watch you operate."

"You are worthy of being the head chef of the store, with a license issued by the Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare, first-class technology, skillfully dissecting puffer fish and removing internal organs, ensuring that it is not toxic and absolutely safe. But I still don't dare to eat it, and it is enough to see you use this knife flexibly with my own eyes! ”

"You just stabbed You Wuzhi in the back with this knife, and the blade was gone. You still don't think it's enough, and if you slapped it harder, even the handle of the knife sank in, and the tip of the knife stabbed the center of the knife, and he died instantly, and no blood flowed out. ”

"This kind of knife is not common, the structure is also special, there is a round hole at the end of the handle, it was originally used to hang, you wear a thin rope in advance, and pull it out after the killing, you didn't expect the blood to spray out, like a spring, it is in the front of your work clothes, which is equivalent to a sign of killing!"

"At this moment, you panicked, and in a hurry, you took off your bloody clothes, wrapped them in murderous weapons, and hid them in the water tank in the sanitary room of your room. Thinking about it later, it was not appropriate, in case the police searched here, it was inevitable that they would not be involved in themselves, and they would definitely show their feet, so they thought of transferring the murderous weapon, destroying the evidence, and throwing it into the stinky river. ”

It was this thought that caused him to die. The blood on the bloody clothes remained in the tank, and Nina went to the toilet and inadvertently noticed that the water in the bucket of the pump was slightly red, which alerted me and determined that you were the murderer. And my spirit dog ran to the river, and at once he judged that there was something in the river, and barked wildly at the stinky water, so that the peasant brothers were mobilized to dig mud in the stinky river at the back gate, and find bloody clothes and sharp knives. It is the so-called "Sky Net is magnificent but not leaky"! What else do you have to say? ”

Sato's face was pale, his head bag was drooping, and he was speechless, not admitting himself.

The police went up and put a handcuff on him, and Officer Zhu also asked for the manager of the store. Mother Bao shook her head slightly: "Don't worry, first bring the murderer back to the bureau for interrogation, what is the motive for killing?" There is reason and evidence, so that the Japanese can be convinced! ”

Sato was put in a police car, and the murder case was successfully solved. Next, the police will interrogate the murderer, chase the motive of the murder, and close the case, which is not Detective Bao's business.
