Zongman: The chef who is not doing his job

"Don't talk nonsense! Before this, I didn't know that your bottle of wine could change this kid back. I just found out when I took his pulse." Wang Lin calmly argued... Ugh! He explained.

Looking at Wang Lin's expression, Hattori Heiji frowned. Well, he couldn't see anything!

He couldn't be sure whether what Wang Lin said was true, and now he realized that the chef in front of him was much more mysterious than he had imagined!

He was able to make a young lady with a distinguished family background work as his waitress, and Wang Lin’s previous series of pretending to be profound behaviors had been infinitely magnified in the eyes of Hattori Heiji!

(This chef has a secret!) Hattori Heiji pondered for a long time, but did not continue asking because he felt that now was not the time.

"But you, although a little cocky, are indeed trustworthy. It's okay for Kudo to tell you about him." Wang Lin put away the camera in his hand and continued slowly.

Hattori Heiji scratched his face speechlessly: "Are you praising me or insulting me?"

"All of them...Okay, we'll talk about the exact details after we get back. Let's deal with this family's business first, shall we?" Wang Lin asked, putting his hands on his hips. "How's your progress?"

"I already know the real murderer! I also know the evidence and the method!" Hattori Heiji proudly pulled the brim of his hat back: "No need to trouble you two! The murderer is Mr. Tsujimura Toshimitsu!"

"He must have used the gap under the door and the fishing line to get the room key back into the pocket of the victim, Mr. Tsujimura Isao!"

(Humph! You haven’t been there yet! I don’t believe you two are faster than me!) Brother Heitan shook his head confidently.

Unexpectedly, Wang Lin and Kudo Shinichi both smiled and said at the same time: "No! Your reasoning is wrong. The murderer is not Mr. Tsujimura Toshimitsu."

"The murderer is Mrs. Tsujimura Kimie. She killed people in front of us." The eldest lady also interrupted with a smile. She suddenly felt that it felt so good to slap someone in the face!

It's easy to understand what a smart person says after a reminder, but Hattori Heiji still finds it a little hard to believe. How could he be wrong?

"But the fishing line I found..." Hattori Heiji took out the ball of fishing line he had just found in his pocket in a daze.

Then, Wang Lin and Kudo Shinichi silently took out a ball of silk from their respective pockets. Kudo took three balls and Wang Lin took two balls.

"This stuff is everywhere in this room! It's meant to interfere with the police solving the case. The purpose is to draw the police's attention to Mr. Tsujimura Toshimitsu." Kudo Shinichi smiled confidently. It really feels good to get slapped in the face!

Hattori Heiji looked at the "decisive evidence" that he treasured and had been hiding for a long time, swallowed his saliva, and threw it into the trash can in the house.

"…I lost." Hattori Heiji laughed bitterly: "I cared too much about winning or losing, and I actually fell into such a simple trap."

If he had been a little more careful and found a second ball of the same fishing line, he would have been able to see through the trap. Unfortunately, he was so focused on solving the case before Kudo Shinichi that he didn't even think about confirming it.

"It's nothing, actually. This trap is too simple! As long as Mr. Toshimitsu Tsujimura insists on not pleading guilty, the police will naturally investigate the scene again. As long as they find the second ball of fishing coils, they will naturally realize that this is a trap." Kudo Shinichi shrugged and said.

That's why he was not in a hurry. After knowing each other for such a long time, Inspector Megure and the others were not completely useless. At least Kudo didn't believe that they would fall for such a simple trap.

"But have you ever thought about what if Mr. Tsujimura Toshimitsu confesses his guilt himself?" Miss Erina suddenly became rebellious and argued.

"How is it possible..." Kudo Shinichi and Hattori Heiji chuckled, and then as if they thought of something, their expressions changed.

"You just realized it?" Wang Lin curled his lips and said, "If Mr. Tsujimura Toshimitsu felt that he was guilty of Mrs. Tsujimura Koie and was ready to take the blame for her, the police would not be prepared to investigate a second time, right?"

The two of them were shocked: "You noticed all this?"

"It's just a preconceived notion." Wang Lin waved his hand and said, "Didn't you notice that Mrs. Tsujimura Koie and Miss Katsuragi Sachiko look a lot like mother and daughter?"

"What?!" Kudo Hattori was shocked.

Kudo pointed at Wang Lin and asked in surprise: "Could it be that when you saw Miss Katsuragi Sachiko's photo before, you noticed that there was something wrong?!"

"Yes! At first I thought that the mother thought her former daughter was going to marry her current son, so she wanted to stop it. Now it seems... I'm afraid there are other reasons." Wang Lin shrugged and explained.

He indeed forgot whether Takayoshi Tsujimura was the biological son of Kimie Tsujimura. It was not until he met him for the first time that he was sure that Takayoshi Tsujimura and Sachiko Katsuragi had no blood relationship.

The two great detectives stared at Wang Lin and opened their mouths, which finally turned into a sigh: "...Awesome! I really lost this time!" x2

“It was just luck.” Wang Lin comforted the two of them, “If you also knew the mother-daughter relationship between Mrs. Tsujimura Kimie and Katsuragi Sachiko, you wouldn’t have made these mistakes.”

(But we don’t know…) The two of them looked at each other with a wry smile. Having been defeated by their opponent for so many steps earlier, they really felt a sense of defeat!

"Okay, Miss, let's go tell Inspector Megure and the others the truth, shall we?" Wang Lin no longer cared about the two autistic detectives and pulled the young lady out of the room.

"Wait for us!" Seeing this, Kudo and Hattori hurriedly followed.

When they returned to the scene, the time was just right. Inspector Megure and Uncle Mori had just identified Tsujimura Toshimitsu, the victim's old father, as the murderer.

"Shinichi!" After Kudo Shinichi appeared, Xiaolan's attention was completely focused on the boy, and he was the only one in her eyes.

"Brother Kudo!? Why are you here?!" Inspector Megure also came forward to greet him kindly: "What are you busy with recently? Long time no see!"

"Haha... let's talk about it later." Kudo Shinichi scratched his head awkwardly, not knowing how to explain.

"Today's protagonist is not this guy!" At this time, Hattori Heiji interrupted the reminiscence of Inspector Megure and Kudo Shinichi, pointed at Wang Lin who had been doing nothing, and said: "The two of us are here to help this big brother today!"

"Ah? Don't you two know the murderer and the method? And you still want me to tell you!" Wang Lin had a distressed expression on his face. He thought it was too troublesome!

Just like he said before, being a detective is an annoying job in itself, not to mention, who says the process of uncovering the truth isn't painful?

However, Kudo Shinichi and Hattori Heiji said to Wang Lin speechlessly: "Brother! Where is the evidence?"

"...WC! Evidence!" Wang Lin's face suddenly changed! He hadn't remembered it yet!

"You haven't found any evidence yet!" The two great detectives were also shocked! Then why don't you pull us over here in a hurry!

The eldest lady Erina also covered her face speechlessly and walked aside silently, trying to pretend that she didn't know these three idiots.

"Wait! You three shouldn't have to work hard on today's case, right? We have found the criminal! We have evidence too! Including the murderer, Mr. Tsujimura Toshimitsu himself has already confessed to the crime!" Uncle Maori said dissatisfiedly as he looked at the three men's funny behavior.

It's a rare occasion that I solved a case while I was sober, so you three high school detectives should stop stealing my job, okay?

"The murderer is not Mr. Toshimitsu Tsujimura. Uncle Maori, the evidence you mentioned should be this fishing line, right? We have found many of them in this house." In this situation, Wang Lin had no choice but to stand up.

Who asked him to tell the police the truth? He dug his own hole and he has to fill it up himself!

"Even so... Mr. Tsujimura Toshimitsu has already pleaded guilty!" Inspector Megure also raised a question. Why should he plead guilty if he didn't do it?

"Mr. Tsujimura Toshimitsu is trying to take the blame for the real murderer, right? Because he feels guilty towards the real murderer, right? Right? Mrs. Tsujimura Kimie?" Wang Lin turned his head and looked at the lady who was silent on the side.

After the police arrived, Mrs. Kimie Tsujimura cooperated very well and didn't say a word. She showed leniency to those who confessed and severity to those who resisted. She just frowned slightly, showing that she was not very happy.

In the police's view, this is normal. If the husband died and the wife still looked happy, then there would be a problem.

But now, when everyone looked at the taciturn lady, Tsujimura Kimie did not explain much, but just asked: "Where is the evidence?"

Wang Lin sighed: "But I wanted to give you a chance to surrender, but these two forced you to do it."
