Come to Zongman to do things

Chapter 257 Restaurant
For one thing he was puzzled.

Why their clients would refuse to let others know their identities.

If it is said that the identity of the detective is more sensitive, then it is not necessary to keep it secret.

Without other people's consent, Wang Xiaomeng's investigation of the corpse was only possible through the lie that he was a doctor.

Fortunately, it is not difficult to find information about the deceased, otherwise it would be a little embarrassing.

"When the rain stops, let's talk to the village chief."

Mori Kogoro said.

"Ah."

Wang Xiaomeng nodded and did not refuse.

……

Of course, Wang Xiaomeng did not ignore the little friend Conan who had been giving hints to him.

As for why he keeps saying that he wants to go to a restaurant for dinner or something.

Wang Xiaomeng naturally knew what the other party wanted to imply.

The previous note had a very clear location.

And after the couple proved, there used to be a restaurant in this village.

Although it has been abandoned.

"Since it's still early, do Conan want to go out on an adventure with me?"

Wang Xiaomeng said following Conan's intention.

"Adventure? Oh~ Where are you going to explore?"

Conan said excitedly.

If he hadn't known that Conan was a high school student, Wang Xiaomeng might have been fooled by the appearance of this kid.

"Of course it's here..."

Wang Xiaomeng said, stretched out his finger and pressed the location of the restaurant marked on the top of the map.

……

The rain was much less than before.

But they had spare umbrellas at the porch before, so Wang Xiaomeng and Conan each took one and came to the restaurant that the couple mentioned.

Of course, I didn't know until I got here that the restaurant was not abandoned at all.

It just turned into a noodle shop.

"Well……"

The proprietress who was in front of the counter smiled when she saw a customer.

"Welcome, are you two here for dinner?"

"Conan, do you want to eat?"

Wang Xiaomeng turned her head and asked.

"I... uh... let's have a bowl of beef noodles..."

Conan said.

"Two bowls."

Wang Xiaomeng added, after all, he didn't eat much at noon.

"Ok."

After the proprietress remembered it, she went to the back kitchen to prepare it.

Wang Xiaomeng glanced at it and didn't continue to ask questions.

It's too late to ask when the other party comes out.

"Brother Wang Meng, the restaurant here is clearly not abandoned..."

Conan tilted his head and asked.

"Maybe I misremembered."

Wang Xiaomeng replied indifferently.

"But I remember, that aunt said she remembered it very clearly."

"..."

Although I really want to rub Conan's dog's head vigorously a few times, but is this oblique hint doubting Wang Meng's IQ?

Obviously there is a loli at home who despises him.

As a result, another one came up now.

"I'll ask the boss later."

Wang Xiaomeng said softly.

……

Beef noodles are ready in no time.

It also exudes a tempting aroma when it is served.

Coupled with the rustling sound outside the window, eating steaming noodles has a special flavor.

"welcome."

Wang Xiaomeng looked up when she heard the proprietress' voice.

Maki Accord seems to have arrived here with an umbrella.

"Huh? Why are you here?"

Maki Accord asked with a smile.

"He didn't have enough for lunch, so I brought him here for dinner."

Wang Xiaomeng pointed to Conan, who was feasting on the side.

"Guru~"

Conan, who was drinking soup, choked for a moment and did not speak.

"Auntie Zhenmei, make me the same kind of noodles again, and put a little more onion."

Maki Accord came to Wang Xiaomeng and sat down.

"Excuse me, did you find anything?"

Maki Accord asked.

"Not yet."

Wang Xiaomeng shook his head, watching the other party's expression.

Maki Accord didn't seem to have any disappointment, and continued: "It's normal, and the murderer was not found last time this kind of thing happened."

"Can you tell me about the past?"

Wang Xiaomeng asked.

"This one……"

"let me see."

Maki Accord thought for a while before saying: "The last time the deceased was a villager who was about my age, the cause of death, I heard from the forensic doctor, was asphyxiation, which seemed to be drowning, but the place where the body was found was in a float. "

"That is to say, except for the cause of death, the time and place where the deceased was found are the same?"

Wang Xiaomeng asked.

"Well, there was an accident during the Sea God Festival. Last time, because no corpse was found, when the float was ignited, the corpse was burnt inside. If it wasn't for someone smelling the smell at the end, it might not have happened. Someone will find out."

Maki Accord also told the past.

But some doubts.

"Since the float is where the murderer placed the corpse, why don't you focus on checking who has approached the float?"

Wang Xiaomeng said seriously.

"This... We have special guards every year, but every time a dead body will appear in the float for no reason, this time is the same."

Maki Accord looked helpless.

"Ok."

Wang Xiaomeng stretched out her fingers and rubbed her forehead.

If he had known earlier, he might have been here a day earlier.

Might as well catch the murderer.

But it's useless to say that now.

After all, you need evidence to speak.

While talking.

The proprietress has already prepared beef noodles for Maki Accord.

Maki Accord smiled and pointed to the noodles, then took the chopsticks aside and ate.

The other party's eating is not ugly, or rather elegant.

After all, from the moment she talked to her detective agency, she already knew that the other party was a very clean person.

but……

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaomeng looked at Conan who was also puzzled, and the other party seemed to be thinking about something.
