Chapter 17

["Today is Totsuki Academy's 'Moon Festival', so there are a lot of delicious food. You can eat it with this thing." Sonoko took out a large stack of meal tickets and handed them to Xiaolan and Phillip. Explained: "Actually, my parents came to Totsuki Academy a few days ago to serve as judges for the autumn selection competition, and they also brought back a lot of meal tickets."]

["Then let's... eh? Miss Asakawa?" Xiaolan smiled and nodded while taking the meal ticket, but she saw Mai Asakawa coming in at the gate, with a puzzled expression on her face. Mai Asakawa also looked at Xiaolan in surprise: "Miss Xiaolan?"]

[Mai Asakawa joined the trio and walked inside together. At the same time, they also understood that Mai Asakawa had received an invitation from Totsuki Academy and came to Totsuki Academy to participate in the 'Moon Festival'. At the same time, Mai Asakawa I also want to investigate my father's situation. 】

[Philip kept looking at the books in his hands on the road and didn't care at all about the stalls on the road next to him, but the three girls would stop to sell food. Just walked around and ate for a while. Phillip finally came across a dish he wanted to eat: "Ma Po Tofu? It shouldn't be very spicy, right?"]

[Philip went to eat Chinese food, the three girls were chatting, and Asakawa Mai went to the bathroom, but after waiting for a long time, neither Xiaolan nor Sonoko waited for Asakawa Mai to come back. Xiaolan and Yuanzi waited for a long time but didn't arrive, so they started to search, but there was nothing in the bathroom and nothing around. 】

["Are you talking about that lady? We have never met, but there was indeed a scream here just now, but I didn't see anything when I came over." Then I met a blue who looked a little weak in the bathroom. said the female chef in a low voice. 】

["Thank you." Xiaolan and Sonoko thanked her, and then they were a little worried and Sonoko said directly: "Miss Asakawa has definitely been kidnapped. Now it's time for our female high school detective to appear."]

["Sonoko, maybe Ms. Asakawa has her own affairs." But even though she said this, a nameplate was found in a corner of the forest not far away from the bathroom. This nameplate was always carried by Mai Asakawa. Yes, it was said that her father gave it to her when she made the cake, and it was her treasure. But now Asakawa Mai has casually thrown her treasure aside. It is impossible to think so. 】

[After picking up the nameplate, Xiaolan became a little panicked. While running with Sonoko to find Philip, Xiaolan also called Conan: "It's not good, Conan, Miss Asakawa is missing." 】

[While talking to Conan on the phone about the situation and the situation of Mai Asakawa's acquisition, Conan had already got into a white Mazda RX-7 FD3S. The driver was clearly Bourbon. Conan continued to call: "Xiaolan, don't worry, meet Phillip first, and call the police. I'll rush there right now."]

[After hanging up the phone, Conan showed an embarrassed expression to Bourbon on the side and said: "I'm really sorry, Mr. Amuro wants you to help me send him to Totsuki Academy."]

["It doesn't matter. My sister's friend is missing. Everyone will be worried, right? And I happen to be going to investigate some cases nearby." Bourbon looked like a big brother next door, smiling very gently. Conan smiled awkwardly when he saw this, and then looked down at the document in his hand. The reflection of his glasses made it difficult to see Conan's expression clearly. 】

Chapter 50 Choose one of three classics!

[Because Totsuki Academy is holding a moon festival these days, there are police officers patrolling nearby. While the police officers were searching, Xiaolan and Sonoko also found Philip. Philip was holding a plate of Mapo Tofu in his hand. Hassan ate happily and sat in a room that looked like a conference room. Xiaolan and Yuanzi are also waiting here. 】

["Miss Asakawa, are you okay?" Xiaolan was still worried. And Sonoko's words were to comfort Xiaolan: "It's okay, Xiaolan, maybe Miss Asakawa just left because of something."]

[However, Sonoko's comforting words were quickly interrupted. The door opened, and a police officer came to explain. He inspected almost everything, but Miss Asakawa Mai was indeed nowhere to be found. And according to the investigation, before Ms. Asakawa Mai disappeared, she met three people and communicated with them for a period of time. 】

[Soon three people were called into this room. The first person who came in was a young man with red hair who looked very young, with white strips of cloth tied around his wrists. The person who came in behind was a strong man who looked like a terrorist, and he looked very fierce. , and the last person who came in was a man with brown hair and glasses. 】

"It's strange, why are they all covering their left hands?" Yuanzi looked at the three people in front of him curiously, and asked Xiaolan next to him in a low voice, and Xiaolan also observed the three people in front of him curiously. 】

["Miss Suzuki." After these three people came in, two more people came in. One had blond hair and looked like the eldest lady, and behind was a girl with pink hair. The blond lady looked like she knew Sonoko. , said hello to the garden. 】

["I told you before that you don't need to call me Miss Suzuki, just call me Sonoko, Erina." Sonoko also said hello to the other party, and then briefly explained the current situation. 】

["My name is Yukihira Soma. I don't know Ms. Asakawa, but she asked me where the toilet was, and I pointed it out to her." The three people also introduced themselves briefly, and the red-haired boy said so. ]

["I am Subaru Misaku, and I know Mai Asakawa. I learned to make cakes at their house for a while. I just said hello when we met today." The sturdy man stood aside with his arms crossed and explained simply. ]

["My name is Eizun Ezuya, and Mai Asakawa and I are not familiar with each other, but I know their cake shop because I plan to buy their shop." Finally, the man with brown hair and glasses pushed his glasses. ]

["What happened to your left hand?" Philip wiped his mouth, walked over, glanced at the three people, and asked. ]

["What happened?" Xiaolan asked Philip in a low voice, and Philip also briefly explained the information that he had encountered before that the impure body was hit in the left hand by his own flame. ]

["Do you suspect that there are impure bodies among these people?" Xiaolan asked curiously. Philip nodded and said, "It's just a feeling."】

【"I was preparing the 'pepper cake' for sale this morning and got burned by accident. I also wore a headscarf all the time. But no one testified for me." Yukihira Soma was relatively indifferent as he untied the headscarf tied on his left hand. There was a simple bandage underneath. He pulled the bandage apart and found some burns on it.】

【"Who are you? Why are you questioning me?" Misaku Subaru was obviously very dissatisfied with Philip's questioning and looked at Philip fiercely. Philip, however, looked at the sturdy man in front of him, Subaru Mimasaka, very calmly, and then opened the blank book in his hand: "Subaru Mimasaka is a first-year student in the senior department of Totsuki Academy. He is a sturdy man who uses the phrase "meticulous and meticulous" as his catchphrase. He has a delicate mind that does not match his huge body."]

["He has a special hobby of collecting other people's tools. He won 99 knives through food battles and lost all of them to Soma Yukihira. He realized that Soma was different from himself who only knew how to imitate and copy. He was a true genius who could create dishes, and then he decided to follow Soma. Because all dishes can be imitated and copied, there is no such thing as being good at cooking for Mimasaka."]

["He is very good at food battles and plays with the rules of food battles. He always tracks his opponent in advance and even knows what color panties the opponent wears. A few days ago, you sneaked in for food battles..." Philip's plain words made Subaru Mimasaka's forehead soaked with cold sweat. 】

【"I'll tell you, I'll tell you..." Mimasaka Subaru didn't dare to let Philip continue. As he spoke, he lifted the bandage on his arm. There was a mark on it that looked like a bullet hit: "This was last night. I followed... a chef and wanted to learn the traditional way of making popcorn. Then I didn't hide well and was hit. But fortunately, it was just a superficial wound. Because I went there secretly, the other party didn't know."】

【"It doesn't look like a bullet wound." Philip nodded and looked at Eishan Ezuya. Seeing this, Eishan Ezuya pushed his glasses and said, "I was burned by oil splashing when I was studying cooking. I have been in the laboratory and have never left. My classmates should be able to testify for me."】

【"Well... So that's it." Philip nodded, and then didn't ask anything, but sat down and flipped through the book. 】

【"You three have communicated with Miss Asakawa before, and you are the only three people who saw her before she disappeared, so please stay here during the investigation." Sonoko coughed and looked like a detective. 】

【"But we still have to operate the stall today." The first to raise an objection was Soma Yukihira, who hadn't opened a single order today. After hearing Soma Yukihira's words, the others nodded. 】

【"Ah..." Sonoko scratched her head awkwardly, and then asked Xiaolan: "Xiaolan, what do you think we should do?" 】

【"..." Xiaolan was looking at the nameplate in her hand, thinking about the content of Conan and her father's previous reasoning. After thinking for a while, she said: "Those people should go back first, but please keep in touch as soon as possible. The police officer may also talk to you later. Is it okay? Officer?" 】

【"Of course, you are worthy of being the daughter of Detective Maori." The police officer who brought these people here is obviously a fan of Detective Maori. I have been acting as a background board all the time. Of course, I agreed to hear this. 】

Chapter 51 Mimasaka Subaru: Is it too late to live on another planet?

"Huh? I'm on camera too?" Soma Yukihira, who was in a certain school, looked up at the TV screen with a confused look on his face and blinked. He knew Mo Chen, after all, Mo Chen was an old customer of their store.

Originally, I thought I would appear as a passerby in the future, but I didn't expect that I would appear this time, and as a suspect. But will I transfer to another school?

Speaking of which, what is Totsuki Academy? And what is Shokugeki?

"Oh, did you defeat the Ten Elites? It seems that Soma did a good job, so I'll send Soma over when the time comes." Yukihira Joichiro, who was busy in his own small store, was slightly stunned, and then showed a mysterious smile.

He had originally thought about this, so it was fine.

But then he felt helpless, his son actually became a suspect.

[“What would you do if it was your father?” Xiaolan was still very nervous, because this time the commission was entrusted to her. She called Maori Kogoro last night, but no one answered. Now Conan hasn’t come yet, so what should she do? 】

【"What are you thinking about, Ran?" After chatting with Erina Nakiri for a while, Sonoko walked up to Ran and asked. Ran was hesitating, so she looked up at you and said seriously, "I want to investigate the case of Miss Asakawa's disappearance."】

【"...Okay!" Sonoko was slightly stunned and nodded at Ran's serious expression, saying, "Well, let's leave this matter to our high school women's detective team."】

【"Good luck, both of you." Philip did not move, but waved his hand: "Contact me if there is anything."】

【"..." Seeing that Philip did not want to intervene in the investigation of the two, Ran nodded to indicate that there was no problem, but Sonoko wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing. Sonoko looked at Ran and said, "Where should we start the investigation?"】

【"Let's go to the place where Miss Asakawa disappeared before. Dad said, 'A hundred visits to the scene is the basis of being a detective.' So let's go back to the place where Miss Asakawa disappeared first." Ran took Sonoko to the place where Asakawa Mai disappeared before. 】

【Back at the missing scene, which was isolated by the police officer, and there were no signs of being trampled by other people again. Xiaolan and Sonoko easily entered the scene and began to investigate seriously. 】

【Finally found a detail, that is, there are several drops of something like cream in the grass leaves here. Xiaolan sniffed it lightly. It was indeed creamy, but it smelled a little rotten? 】

【"Philip, what type of impurity did you deal with before?" After handing the leaves with cream-like items to the police officer, Xiaolan remembered what Philip had just said, so she called Philip. Philip on this side was not really in the room, but at a stall outside. 】

【"It should be cream... No, it's a dessert impurity. Did you find anything over there?" Philip asked casually, holding the phone and taking the "Pepper Cake" from Soma Yukihira's hand. 】

【"Well, I found some creams with strange smells. Like..." Xiaolan closed her eyes and recalled her father's previous reasoning for a while, "Dripping traces."】

【"Xiaolan, Erina just said that there are indeed some stalls that use cream, but their stalls are not here, but in another area." Sonoko also finished her phone call and came over. 】

【"Who could it be?" Xiaolan fell into deep thought, and finally Sonoko said: "It's useless for us to think about it here now, let's go follow the suspects."】

【Sonoko's opinion was accepted by Xiaolan "Sonoko, who do you think is more suitable to find?"】

【"Let's split up into two groups. I'll keep an eye on the one called Yukihira Soma, and you go to see the one called Eiyama Ezuya, how about that?" Sonoko made such a suggestion because these two people are still normal people, and that Mimasaka Subaru is just a strong man, and neither girl is suitable. 】

【"What about Mr. Mimasaka Subaru?"】

【"Let's leave it to the only male, Philip."】

【Things were arranged like this, and Philip had no objection, but there was a small problem, that is, Xiaolan got lost. Totsuki Academy is a very large school, almost covering a mountain, so it is very large. Although there is a map, Xiaolan still got lost. 】

【On the other side, Bourbon's car quickly arrived at the gate of Totsuki Academy. Conan got off the car without any hesitation, thanked Bourbon, and ran in immediately. But unfortunately, he was stopped by someone, and Conan could only call Sonoko to ask Sonoko to pick him up. 】

【"What? Xiaolan followed the criminal?" Conan looked at Sonoko who came out to pick him up and said, with a surprised expression on his face. According to previous understanding, the criminal this time might be the doped body. Xiaolan is in danger. 】

【"Don't worry, kid, Xiaolan's karate is very strong." Sonoko didn't know about the doping, but she knew Xiaolan was very strong, and there were people coming and going here, so nothing would happen. 】

【"Damn... It's troublesome. Where's Philip?" Conan asked as he and Sonoko ran inside together, covering his forehead. 】

【"Philip should be at the stall of the one named Mimasaka Subaru." Sonoko looked at Conan's nervous look and felt bad, so she immediately followed Conan inside. 】

【"..." After parking the car, Bourbon looked at the two people running away through the rearview mirror and took out the Nazca Gaia memory from his pocket. 】

"Speaking of which, who is the criminal? Did you figure it out?"

"It should be the one named Mimasaka Subaru, with a bullet-like wound on his hand."

"..." Many people on the Internet are discussing it.

"How could I possibly do that?" Misaku Subaru was so nervous that he sweated as he watched the expressions of other people in the classroom looking at him. He admitted that he would follow others to imitate their cooking, but he would never do anything illegal.

And panties...

Looking at the strange gazes from all around, Misaku Subaru felt that he should live in another country.

No, this video is available on the entire earth, so he should live on another planet.

Chapter 52 Ran is lost!

["Where is this?" Ran looked at the surroundings with a puzzled expression on her face. This looked like a forest area, and she had no idea where this was. She just walked into a few small paths. 】

【"Huh? Is there a house in front?" Xiaolan walked around for a long time, and soon saw a house in the distance. She breathed a sigh of relief, then walked over and knocked on the door gently, but there was no sound. Xiaolan looked a little disappointed, and knocked on the door again: "Is anyone there?"】

【"Wuwuwu..." A whimpering sound suddenly came from the room, which made Xiaolan a little confused. She lay on it and listened for a while. There was indeed someone inside, so Xiaolan walked around the house. It was called a house, but it was more like a larger warehouse. Here, she soon found a window. Xiaolan jumped up and grabbed the window sill with both hands, propped herself up, and soon saw the inside through a small window. 】

【"Ms. Asakawa!" Mai Asakawa, who was tied with a rope, had a rag on her mouth, and had a sticky head, was inside. Xiaolan showed a surprised expression on her face, jumped down from the window, looked around, took a deep breath, and then kicked the door hard, directly kicking the iron door down, and then kicked it down again. The entire iron door was kicked open directly. 】

【There are a lot of sundries in this house, all kinds of messy and large things. Mai Asakawa was lying on the ground, her clothes were sticky, and she looked like she was sprinkled with cream. 】

【"Ms. Asakawa, it's great that you're okay." Xiaolan immediately stepped forward to help take off the rag that was blocking her mouth, and Miss Asakawa coughed several times: "Ms. Xiaolan, there is a monster, let's go quickly..."】

【"Monster?" Just as Xiaolan helped Miss Asakawa up, a deep voice sounded behind her: "It seems that things are not so simple to end."】

【"Mr. Yukihira?" Xiaolan turned her head sharply after hearing the voice behind her, and saw Soma Yukihira, whom she had met before, standing at the door with a serious expression. 】

【On the other side, Sonoko and Conan directly found Philip who was learning to make "pepper cakes" at Soma Yukihira's stall. 】

"Wait, is the murderer Yukihira Soma?"

"I think so, otherwise where would he be?"

"Is it really me?" Yukihira Soma was also a little confused. Indeed, the way he looked just now was as if he admitted that he was the criminal this time.

But why did he become like that?

Did something happen in the future? He actually became such a big villain?

【"So, kid, do you know who the criminal is? Is it the person called Mimasaka Subaru?" Panting, running over was still too tiring for Sonoko, because she explained the situation to Conan on the way. 】

【"No, he's not the criminal." Conan shook his head and said, "If it was a wound that was hit this morning, there would be no bullet hole, because the bullets fired by the Heat, Trigger Magnum are not physical, but energy bullets, and they won't leave bullet-like wounds."】

【'Why can't I get through on the phone? Could it be that Xiaolan...' Conan tried to call but found that he couldn't get through at all. This made Conan nervous. He walked around with his chin pinched, looking very anxious. Sonoko, who didn't know, greeted him. 】

【"By the way, is Soma Yukihira not here?" Then Sonoko was also very curious. Soma Yukihira was not here either, only Philip was here, and she looked confused. 】

【"He said he had something to do, so he left for a while." Philip spread his hands. 】

【Conan, who was walking around, didn't think about it anymore, and pulled Philip into a room on the side. He also locked Sonoko outside, which made Sonoko look confused. She knocked on the door but it didn't open. 】

【"Philip, enter the library, please hurry up!" Because Xiaolan was also missing, Conan took out the stag beetle phone, bat camera, and spider vibrating watch, inserted all of them into the virtual memory, and made them all come alive and fly out of the room. 】

【"Okay, okay." After wiping the flour off his hands, Philip opened his hands and entered the library with the books. 】

【"The first keyword is chef, the second keyword is kidnapping, and the third keyword is Gaia memory." 】

【"Wow, this is very fast. But there are about ten books left, can it be reduced?" Philip looked at the bookshelf that was quickly passing by, and asked the last one who stopped. 】

["..." Conan frowned, not expecting there would be so many. He closed his eyes and thought, but his mind was full of Xiaolan, which made him unable to think calmly. Seeing this, Philip asked in confusion: "What's wrong? No more keywords?"]

['Calm down, I, only by calming down can I find Xiaolan, calm down.' Conan, who had guessed that the man was probably the murderer, forced himself to calm down. Only by calming down could he reason normally. But even when he forced himself to calm down, he was still worried about Xiaolan in his mind. ]

["What are you doing in there, little brat? I have asked the men of the business partner my parents know to help find Xiaolan. It must be okay. She probably got lost." At this time, Sonoko knocked on the door again and shouted to Conan inside. ]

["The last keyword, business!" Conan, who frowned, heard Sonoko's words, and his eyes lit up and he spoke directly. Philip's bookshelf in front of him quickly passed by, and only one book was left. 】

【The title of the book is "Alchemist"】

【"I found the hiding place of the other party, as well as the other party's Gaia memory and the other party's purpose." Philip opened his eyes and flipped through the book in his hand quickly. 】

"No matter how I look at it, I feel that this ability is really terrifying."

"Yes, you can find out anything you want to know. It's simply a god-like ability."

"Xiaolan, look at that kid Shinichi. He misses you so much that his head is about to explode." Among the classmates in Class B, Grade 2 of Teitan High School who were watching the video, Sonoko smiled and tapped Xiaolan's back with her finger and said to Xiaolan.

Xiaolan's blushing head can be a cooked crab now.

Chapter 53 Sweet

"Why are you all discussing this? Didn't you notice? That little girl named Xiaolan kicked the iron door open with two feet."

"It's not a security door, why are you panicking?"

"Go and try it. This kind of iron door is not that easy to kick open. This little girl has good leg strength."

"Miss Xiaolan is the champion of the National High School Karate Kanto Competition."
