The Pitch Black Express Chapter 101 Japanese Sweets That Have Disappeared from Old Shops

"Mr. Mori, Mr. Mori......" The Ayakoji Police Department ran in from outside with many boxes of bean paste flavored Kyonotori, "Huh? Hasn't Mr. Maori come back yet? ”

Conan hurriedly picked up his words, "Eh, Uncle's words are coming back soon...... But how's that? ”

"Ah, exactly like Mr. Mori told me on the phone, I found something incredible, it's amazing, Mr. Mori is really a detective."

At this time, Maori Kogoro, who was enjoying flowers and drinking outside, had been brought back by Xiaolan, and he fell asleep on the ground as soon as he entered the house, "Ha, it saves a lot of trouble." Conan put away the watch-type hemp drunken gun that had been opened and aimed.

"Mr. Maori, what's wrong with you?"

"He sat on the side of the road and got drunk admiring the flowers, so I taught him a little and became like this, please don't care." Xiaolan explained calmly, and probably only Conan knew how serious Xiaolan's mouth was.

"But speaking of which, where did the officer from our police station go?" The Ayakoji Police Department found that Officer Che was not in the store.

"Huh... Ha... Uncle Kogoro seems to have called him, maybe he was entrusted with something. ”

"Mr. Maori, what are you asking the car to do for you?"

Conan quickly hid in a corner where no one was around, and used a bow-shaped voice changer to disguise himself as Maori Kogoro's voice and began to solve the case, "Let's not mention this, Ayakoji Police Department, I entrusted you to investigate, those bean paste-flavored packaging displayed in the store......"

"That's right, just like you said, a substance soaked through the carton was found near the stickers of those bean paste flavor packaging, and it was identified as rice oil."

"Rice oil?"

"Rice oil is the material we use to make prototype agents." The president who stood aside explained.

"That...... What is a prototype agent? Ayumi raised her own questions.

"When baking desserts, the oil is brushed into the mold to allow the finished dessert to be completely removed from the mold. But why does rice oil get on stickers with the flavor of bean paste? ”

"It's not accidentally touched, but it's smeared, before putting on this bean paste sticker, remember, the delivery master said that there are 40 boxes of bean paste flavor, 40 boxes of matcha flavor, and 40 boxes of chocolate flavor, but there are 80 boxes of bean paste flavor and 40 boxes of matcha flavor in this store, why do you say this?"

"Do you mean...... Chocolate-flavored ones that have been dropped? "Officer Aya Koji can achieve the status of the police department, and his professional ability will naturally not be too bad.

"Originally, there were 10 boxes of each flavor on the shelves, so as long as you put your hands and feet on the 10 boxes of chocolate-flavored Kyinotori, you can wipe the stickers with the cotton pads stained with rice oil prepared in advance on the palms of your hands, and you can uncover the stickers that have been pasted, and at this time, as long as you put on the bean paste flavored stickers, you can complete the package, and the two people are responsible for 10 boxes, and the workload is not too large. Then put the 10 replacement boxes in the cabinet under the counter for replenishment, and arrange the changed boxes neatly, and you're done. In other words, it may not be accurate to say that in this store, it should be said that all five branches did not have a chocolate-flavored Kyonotori from the beginning. ”

Just when everyone was surprised by Mori Kogoro's reasoning, Officer Che ran in from outside, "Mori detective! Maori detectives! …… Everything was exactly as the Maori detective said, and in the refrigerator at Umehara's workplace, there was a chocolate that was intended to be used today, and it was placed there untouched. ”

Conan immediately picked up, "In other words, there has been no chocolate-flavored Kyonotori since today, and the only person who can do this is you, the pastry chef." As for the motivation, I think it's because ......"

The pastry chefs standing on the side had tears in their eyes, "The former president, he really hates the matcha flavor, let alone this chocolate flavor." ”

"Just for this simple reason?"

That's not an easy reason! Isn't that easy......" Tears flowed down his cheeks, and it was clear that the chef had a deep affection for the former president and the dessert shop, "That's why we absolutely don't allow the release of new flavors of Kyinotori on the death day of the former president, and the chocolate flavor must not be ...... At least not at this point! ”

The two masters had already knelt on the ground, "However, we didn't expect to cause such a big commotion and bring such a bad impact to this shop, I'm so sorry......"

The case has been solved, and the police officer drove away from the scene, not taking any of the prisoners with him, "Is it really okay, I don't plan to file a victimization application?" ”

The president opened his mouth and explained to the Ayakoji Police Department, "After all, the exquisite skills of these pastry chefs have been left by the previous president, but in fact, they are the soul of this shop." ”

"I see, but what happens to the chocolate after that? Won't it be launched yet? Xiaolan couldn't wait to ask, and it could be seen that she really liked the desserts of the Kyono Bird brand.

"Neither the matcha flavor nor the chocolate flavor will be released on the day of the previous president's death, and only the bean paste flavor Kyonotori will be released on this day in the future, which is considered a consolation to the former president. As for the future, when the master plans to make it for sale by himself, it will naturally be launched, after all, without them, there would be no glory of the Kyonotori brand. ”

"However, it's because of the matcha flavor that I like Kyo-no-Tori."

"Thank you then."

……

"By the way, what about Mitsuhiko?" The great detective finished his reasoning and finally found that there was one less companion in the junior detective group.

"Don't worry, just call him with the detective badge......" Before Kazama's words were finished, Mitsuhiko had already run back.

"Great detective, have you ever thought that the truth in your eyes may not be the truth that others want to know?" Kazama whispered next to Conan.

"Huh? Why don't you want to know the truth, aren't you all worried about who stole these chocolate-flavored Kyono Birds, and besides, my duty as a detective is to find out the truth of the case and make it public, after all, there is only one truth. ”

At this time, Kazama only felt extremely ironic when he heard this extremely familiar line, "Indeed, there is only one truth, but have you thought about it, if some unimportant truths will hurt many people, then why not hide it for them......"

"Why ......"

"You, other people's plus points are IQ 100 points, EQ 100 points, you are IQ 200 points, EQ 0 points." Kazama said hatefully, in fact, when he thought of dropping the bag, he had already guessed that those dessert chefs made it, and the reason was very simple, that is, Sonoko said that there was a sentence about the former president who only liked the flavor of bean paste, Kyonotori, and hated the taste of matcha very much. But he didn't want to expose it, because since these masters chose to do such a thing, there must be their reasons, looking at the remorse in their eyes, Kazama knew that this matter would only happen this once, they could not take into account the feelings of the current president, they could not take into account the feelings of the fellow clerks, but they would not ignore the feelings of the customers, they would not ignore the reputation and reputation of the store, in that case, why not expose this matter and treat it as a "supernatural event", Let's think the former president suddenly woke up today...... But this can be regarded as Kazama's prejudice against this matter, he is purely consequential, if it is not for the current president to forgive their behavior and not pursue them, in fact, these two pastry chefs should indeed bear legal responsibility, because they have indeed brought reputational damage to this dessert shop, and many customers who have received advertisements to buy chocolate-flavored Kyono Tori are disappointed, maybe they will not come here to consume again, this is a real homeopathy.

"Huh? What is the unimportant truth, don't you see that Lan cares so much about this, everyone wants to know how the chocolate-flavored Kyonotori disappeared...... Yes! Kazama really didn't want to talk to this brainless detective anymore, so he took out two dorayaki from the bag in his hand and stuffed them into Conan's mouth together, "Enjoy, Detective, this is the most famous dorayaki in Kyoto, and these two are worth thousands of yen, so you can't waste it......"

When Conan heard this, he forcibly suppressed the urge to vomit, pressed his hands next to his mouth, and pressed the two gongyaki into it fiercely, for fear that they would fall out. Eventually, Conan swallowed them all, but unfortunately he swallowed them so fast that he didn't have time to savor them, so it didn't seem to be any different from waste.
