Chapter 6: The Detective's Emotional Sand

In the window seat in the corner of the coffee shop, Mu Yuan returned to this inconspicuous place again.

As at the beginning, he stared out the window with a blank face.

In the reflection of the glass, two handsome young men and a yellow fat man with a sheriff's beard appeared.

Then, the fat man and the handsome young man in the uniform of Didan High School glanced at each other.

"Ahem..."Twilight Thirteen cleared his throat and spoke first, "Brother Muyuan, although we are already very acquainted, you still have to prove your innocence first." ”

On the other side, Mu Yuan didn't seem to hear it, his eyes still staring out the window.

Twilight opened her mouth, but shook her head helplessly.

Kudo Shinichi relayed: "You guy! ”

"Stop pretending to be a ghost!"

"What the dead told you... Who would believe such nonsense? ”

"Also, you guy, you don't really have that at all... High Functioning Autism Bar! ”

In the midst of a series of questions, Mu Yuan finally reacted.

He turned his head and said calmly, "I have a diagnosis certificate from eleven hospitals. ”

With that, he stared out the window again.

Shinichi Kudo: "......"

Who cares if you have a medical certificate from the hospital?

Tell me the clues you're hiding!

"Well, well... Brother Kudo, don't get excited, everyone is for the case. Twilight Thirteen spoke at the right time to ease the atmosphere, "However, Brother Mu Yuan's illness is indeed real, otherwise, how dare those evil monks in Erquan Temple frame him like that?" ”

"Moreover, if it hadn't been verified, I wouldn't have specially helped Brother Muyuan hide his case."

Without giving Kudo Shinichi a chance to refute, Twilight Thirteen pacified this side, and skillfully persuaded Mu Yuan:

"Also, Brother Muyuan, you too, don't always wait for all the suspects to be present before telling the truth in one go."

"You are doing this, and you are really making our police very passive."

"It's better to... Can you tell us about what happened when you met Ms. Mayumi last night? ”

Mu Yuan turned his head, opened his mouth under the expectant gaze of Twilight Thirteen, said nothing, and stared out the window again.

Twilight Thirteen: "......"

Is this a reaction...... I was going to make up an excuse, but after thinking about it, I didn't think it was necessary?

Brother Muyuan, he really has no heart!

Mu Yuan really didn't have a heart, but he really didn't deliberately hide any clues as the two thought.

As for why he only told the truth every time after the suspect arrived, it was because......

If he doesn't see the real murderer, he can't guess what the truth is!

Coupled with the identity of his organization member, there are many things that are inconvenient to reveal to the two, such as the reason why he came to this coffee shop last night, even if he makes up an excuse to temporarily fool the past, it is difficult to ensure that he will not show any flaws in the future.

Although Kudo Shinichi has lost to him three times in a row, after reading the newspaper reports related to this high school detective, Mu Yuan also has to admit that Kudo Shinichi does have two brushes.

Therefore, Mu Yuan is not deliberately pretending to be cold, but he really has nothing to say.

As for why he always looks out the window......

At this time, a silver-gray imported sedan drove into Yuejian Road and was stopped by the criminal police who set up a card at the intersection.

The emotional fish that was originally leisurely wandering on the side of the street and flicking its little tail from time to time was suddenly stunned, and then aimed in the direction where the imported sedan was located, and the little tail shook as if it was about to take off.

Seeing that the fish that flew like an arrow had already sparked sparks - this is to die with people!

Mu Yuan stood up suddenly.

"Squeak—" The booth fixed to the ground in front of him made a screeching sound of metal grinding.

Mu Yuan, who finally called the emotional fish back, was slightly stunned, as if he had noticed something, and looked down

- Twisted and slightly tilted to the other side, next to the metal tabletop, sit the stunned Shinichi Kudo and Twilight Thirteen.

Mu Yuan calmly dusted off the wrinkles on his robe, thought for a while, and said, "The quality of the tables and chairs in this shop is not very good. ”

Shinichi Kudo and Twilight Thirteen: "......"

I believe you're a ghost!

Coming back from the shock, Kudo Shinichi suddenly squinted his eyes and said tentatively: "I didn't expect that the host of Muyuan is also a martial artist, no wonder you will send an invitation to Xiaolan so that the members of the karate club can train in the Erquan Temple for free." ”

"Martial artist?"

Mu Yuan blinked, and the poor telephone pole in his temple that was almost kicked off by Miss Xiaolan came to his mind.

If the so-called martial artist is just powerful, although he is far inferior to Mao Lilan, he is actually ......

Wrong! Shinichi Kudo: This is testing his true identity!

Makito soon realized Kudo's true purpose.

Unexpectedly, after so many cases, even he became a partner of Officer Twilight and Dr. Asasa, Kudo Shinichi still didn't let go of his suspicions.

I don't know if I should say that the detective's sense of smell is really keen, or is this kid really persistent?

"Kudo-san's today seems to be a little different from usual."

After realizing Kudo Shinichi's purpose, Mu Yuan naturally would not follow the rhythm of the other party, he learned from the appearance of ordinary people, looked at Kudo Shinichi, and smiled:

"You didn't chase the police officers of the search section this time, and work with them to investigate and collect evidence at the crime scene."

Shinichi Kudo: "......"

Being watched by Mu Yuan with a non-smiling gaze, Kudo Shinichi turned blushing in an extremely rare way and lowered his head slightly.

Since Mu Yuan had been preempted three times in a row, he was too curious and wanted to find out how Mu Yuan could quickly solve the case before he could collect all the evidence.

That's why he didn't hesitate to give up the opportunity to get first-hand evidence information this time, and he also had to follow Mu Yuan's side closely......

How can you say this kind of thing!?

"That's, that's because ......"

Kudo Shinichi blushed, frantically searching for a suitable excuse in his mind.

Finally, after noticing the curious Twilight Thirteen beside him, his eyes suddenly lit up and said:

"That's because none of his subordinates from the Twilight Police Department are here today!"

"In order not to cause trouble to the police department, so, so I didn't follow him!"

Twilight Thirteen: "......"

When I solved a case with you for the first time, I never saw you be so polite to me!

Since Kudo Shinichi and Twilight Thirteen are both owners of the Perfect Heart Circle, Makito is neither aware of Twilight Thirteen's anomaly nor does he see through Kudo Shinichi's lies.

He was just a little surprised that Kudo Shinichi still had such an empathetic side.

But in order to interrupt Kudo Shinichi's temptation, Mu Yuan still thought about it and changed the topic:

"I heard that Kudo-san, too, called Officer Twilight this morning, so I don't know, how did you find out that Ms. Mayumi was in the cold storage?"

"That's right, Brother Kudo." Twilight Thirteen was also curious: "Brother Muyuan, he has already seen Ms. Mayumi last night, it's not strange to know some clues that we don't know, but how did you know that Ms. Mayumi was locked up in cold storage?" ”

Hearing this, Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but roll his eyes.

If it was just Mu Yuan who came to ask, he didn't want to answer, because he had actually recognized Mu Yuan's ability to solve cases, and he didn't think that Mu Yuan would not be able to see such an obvious thing.

But in the face of Twilight Thirteen's questioning, he had to answer:

"It's the bag of coffee beans on the counter!"

"Coffee beans on the counter?" Twilight Thirteen was slightly stunned, and her gaze shifted to the empty counter.

Mu Yuan also took a look

- An ordinary brown paper bag with a round air valve was sitting lazily against the grinder, and it was placed there without any sense of existence.

"Well, this bag of coffee ......" Twilight Thirteen blinked, wondering, "Is there anything wrong?" ”

"Pay attention to that sign on the bag!" Shinichi Kudo pointed to the hot stamping on the paper bag and said impatiently: "This means that it is a bag of Red Label Geisha coffee beans from the Emerald Estate in Panama!" ”

"Although not many people know about it yet, in the eyes of those who really understand coffee, it is already a dream treasure that is hard to find."

"Even my dad commented that this coffee bean will win the championship sooner or later."

"In addition, it is said that due to the strict rating and the scarcity of production, even now, the price per 100 grams is privately sold for more than 10,000 yen."

"One, 10,000 yen!?" Twilight Thirteen glared at the middle-aged worker's eyes, "Doesn't that mean a cup of coffee will ......?"

Twilight looked around for price tags, but there was clearly nothing like that in such a coffee shop.

"If you count the barista's service fee and the coffee shop's profit, it's probably at least 5,000 yen a cup." Shinichi Kudo gave the answer directly.

"What!?" Twilight Thirteen exclaimed, "Wouldn't a criminal police officer like us who drinks at least eight cups of coffee a day have to pay for a month's coffee...... More than a million yen!? ”

"Otherwise, police department, why do you think a coffee shop should be equipped with cold storage?" Kudo Shinichi rolled his eyes and asked himself, "It's just to preserve these expensive specialty coffee beans." ”

"It is said that storing these specialty coffee beans by freezing them not only keeps the flavor in them longer, but also makes them more uniform and uniform in their texture."

"So, really high-end coffee shops are equipped with cold storage."

"......" Twilight Thirteen felt numb.

"But that's not enough for you to deduce that Ms. Mayumi is locked up in cold storage, right?"

Mu Yuan stared out the window and said calmly, "Maybe she forgot to put it away?" ”

Shinichi Kudo frowned: "Although I don't think a professional barista would make such a mistake......"

"But just in case, I went to check the contents of the still recorded videotape under the TV stand, and I was sure that there was no way that Mayumi Mayumi had left the coffee shop before twelve o'clock last night."

"Because, the program that was regularly recorded in that tape was postponed because of the special news, and it didn't end until 12 o'clock last night, the World Barista Championship."

"Then, I went to the convenience point opposite that is open 24 hours a day, and asked the two clerks who had changed shifts at 11 o'clock last night, and confirmed that no one had left the coffee shop since 11 o'clock last night."

"Hehe..."Mu Yuan's expression remained unchanged: "Really? ”

"Of course!" Kudo Shinichi frowned and said: "This store does not have a back door, the sound of the welcome bell is also very special, the business of the convenience store is not busy at night, if someone leaves, it is impossible for the two clerks on the opposite side not to notice." ”

Mu Yuan: "Oh. ”

"You!" Kudo Shinichi slapped the table and stood up, and said angrily:

"You guy! Hurry up and find a way to prove your innocence, or when the results of the investigation come out, those people will have to handcuff you and escort you away! When the time comes, you won't even have a chance to reason! They're not Officer Twilight's men! ”

A grain of glittering perfect emotional sand quietly floated out in Kudo Shinichi's irritated voice and flew straight towards Mu Yuan's face.

Mu Yuan had to withdraw his gaze from the window, turn his head, and open his mouth to swallow.

"Boom... Well? Lemon-flavored? ”

"What did you say?" Kudo Shinichi was stunned for a moment.

Mu Yuan licked his lips and pointed out the window, "I said, I don't have the need to prove my innocence." ”

"Huh?" Kudo Shinichi looked in the direction of Muyuan's finger, and then said in surprise: "That man is ......"
