Chapter 779 The Real Assassin
“The taste is okay. If I have to talk about advantages, maybe it is very fresh because it is close to the sea.”
Absent-minded, always observing the normal behavior. Masahiko, the Taoist Association of Karasawa, heard the girl sitting next to him say this. He slightly regained his attention and glanced at her.
Suzuki Sonoko was wearing a suspender skirt that highlighted her figure today, and Dao Xie Masahiko caught a glimpse of the label on the back of the dress.
It's not an expensive brand, it's a fairly common brand, cheaper than the sashimi she's eating. Why does she have such an ordinary tone?
Is it because you didn't see the price tag?
"It's not bad." Kyogoku Makoto, who was sitting directly opposite him, had his eyes twitching and said to Suzuki Sonoko without any words, "I think the seafood at my shop is better than here. A little. ”
It’s a lot cheaper.
So take a few bites less and look at that wretched guy next to you, his eyes are almost inserted into your collar!
"Well, your store does really good work." Suzuki Sonoko chewed the fish in her mouth, and did not deny Kyogoku's statement, "I compared it to other similar prices. Shop.”
"This place is much more valuable than my store." Kyogoku complained bluntly.
Tao Xie Masahiko looked at him sideways and frowned secretly.
He has experienced Kyogoku's truly hostile eyes and targeting in the past two days.
Even if you don’t talk about the beating he received after being bumped into in the room, this person was quite targeted at him. He was most likely interested in the woman Suzuki Sonoko, so he probably couldn’t bear to be the first to get there.
Tao Xie Masahiko picked up a pair of vegetables with chopsticks and twitched the corner of his mouth with some contempt.
You're an idiot who doesn't understand what these women like. If you reveal that your family can't afford such a store, it will only make people lose interest in you.
"The shortcoming of your store is that it is cheap." Suzuki Sonoko shrugged, "If the price is higher, the profit will be able to support the boss to change to a bigger store and more expensive interior decoration, but the business will be reduced. It will be better."
"Well, I also have a store with that route." Kyogoku protested in a low voice, "It's not as expensive as here."
Putting up the wine glass. Dao Xie Masahiko choked.
After eating and drinking, Tangze, who put down the tableware with care, also looked at him sideways.
This man really doesn't have the upper hand. It's time for him to experience the power of money.
In fact, in a tourist city like Izu, the conditions for a family that can open a hotel and restaurant of this size are really not bad at all. In many places, such Japanese-style hotels even have to talk about "family "Inherit", "behave dignifiedly" and other clan-style things, there are similar characters in P4.
The Kyogoku family not only opened hotels and restaurants, but also provided for their children to go to school and practice martial arts in the center of Tokyo.
The martial arts gym is not for charity. Going out to participate in competitions is all about money. However, Kyogoku is not practicing martial arts to get ahead. He is a student with relevant specialties just because he likes it. This shows that his family background is not at all Not thin.
It was even more evident that he later respected his ideas and allowed him to suspend school and study martial arts abroad.
Kicking the noble son refers not only to his appearance and temperament, but also to the fact that his family is indeed quite wealthy. Otherwise, if you give a poor man such a nickname, you will make enemies.
This time it was because Suzuki Sonoko wanted to experience the civilian route. Kyogoku, who met her by chance, followed the civilian route. It was not that he couldn't afford it.
Tang Ze wiped his mouth, preparing to add some more psychological pressure to Dao Xie Masahiko.
“I think what Sonoko-san said is right.” Karasawa joined in their conversation, “However, looking at the traffic of people in this restaurant, this restaurant may not be making enough money. There are many over there at Umi House. My parents are good at business, Kyogoku-kun.”
Kyogoku pushed up his glasses in confusion and glanced at Suzuki Sonoko quickly: “She has the same idea. It’s your own logic. Some people just think that expensive food is better, but my parents thought that opening this kind of store in Izu might not be as effective as opening it in Tokyo, so they gave up this strategy.”
"Then I look forward to them opening one in Tokyo as soon as possible." Mao Lilan nodded vigorously with a smile as she was very happy with the meal. "It must be better than the ones we have been to."
"Will it?"
“It’s an advantage to make food with the same level of ingredients that tastes better. In addition, if you can learn how to package it, maybe one day your fame will spread all over the world.”
“You are right. Karasawa, many seafood restaurants of this price range in Tokyo don’t taste as good as here. I thought it was because the ingredients are fresher.”
“It’s not like Tokyo doesn’t have a coastline, so the food is just food… ”
Several boys and girls naturally discussed the luxurious restaurant, and none of them looked in awe of the expensive meal.
Tao Xie Masahiko picked up the ordering receipt that could cover half a month's salary of many office workers, and his eyebrows jumped slightly.
Because he met Kyogoku Makoto in a seafood shop and a hotel, and the other person had been working as a waiter, even if he learned through Suzuki Sonoko that Kyogoku Makoto was actually the young owner of these shops, he subconsciously thought The other party is just an ordinary family.
Similarly, the three here, Tao Xie Masahiko, who has always defaulted to traveling and consuming like this, and they are not children of a wealthy family, only now vaguely noticed something amiss.
As for Tangze, he just wanted him to experience what real fear is.
"If we continue talking, Yuanzi has always wanted to hide something from Mr. Dao Xie, so we can't hide it anymore." Mao Lilan, who felt that the topic was a little too far away, woke up, grabbed Tangze's sleeves and whispered.
If the man who could be captured by Suzuki Sonoko's civilian route this time knew Suzuki Sonoko's true family background, he might be intimidated.
"It's impossible to keep hiding it from others, right?" Karasawa replied softly, "If Sonoko-san's purpose is not to find a random handsome guy for fun, but to establish a stable long-term relationship, You can’t hide anything in this regard.”
Now let’s point it out, you can still argue that you didn’t intentionally lie, you just came to experience life. If you don’t explain clearly later, it will really hurt your feelings.
"What you said makes sense." Mao Lilan thought thoughtfully.
Indeed, if Dao Xie Masahiko flinched when he heard about Sonoko’s true family background, then they wouldn’t have lasted long, so it’s good to let him know now. If they can’t continue, the long-term pain will be worse than the short-term pain...
" If Sonoko approves of your family's taste, then Kyogoku-kun, you can really suggest that your parents come to Tokyo to open a branch. "Just do it, Mao Lilan immediately found a suitable reason and continued, "Yes. When it comes to luxury restaurants, not many people know more about it than Sonoko. "...I know." Kyogoku's eyes wandered, "After all, she belongs to the Suzuki family."
Ever since meeting them on the field, Kyogoku has really inquired and paid attention to her situation. Of course, it is impossible not to know Suzuki Sonoko's family background.
That's why he was so surprised and cherished this opportunity when he met her at his home hotel.
Based on his usual life path, if he wanted to get to know Suzuki Sonoko, he would have to wait until the end of the year.
"'Suzuki Family'?" Daoxie Masahiko, who had secretly realized that something was wrong, took out his mobile phone and prepared to search on the web page, repeated. "That's too exaggerated." Suzuki Sonoko saw his surprised look and waved her hand quickly, "Xiaolan and I have been friends since childhood. We go out to eat together most often. We can't always eat at expensive places. ”
“Don’t make it sound like Mr. Lan is poor.” Tangze, who was not prepared to let Dao Xie Masahiko take advantage of the victory, said, “It’s all because Uncle Maori didn’t do it before. You can save more money.”
“That’s too exaggerated,” Mao Lilan quickly responded, “Although your family may not be richer than the Suzuki family, the money you have is ours. The most.”
Although, although, that's because his parents are gone, so all the financial benefits are in the hands of Tang Ze alone...
It's a bit hell to go into detail about this, but she understands Tang Ze's intention. He just resisted the condemnation of his conscience and worked hard to exaggerate his net worth for his friends.
"It's hard to say." Karasawa raised his eyebrows, "Sonoko also has his own property now, and the cash he can allocate may not be less than mine."
"Hey Hey..." Not understanding why her best friend and Karasawa suddenly exposed themselves, Suzuki Sonoko put down her chopsticks and prepared to stop them from continuing.
“When——”
There was a sound of clinking dishes, and several people stopped talking and turned to look.
However, the spoon in Tao Xie Masahiko's hand fell into the white porcelain bowl, and the look on his face was quite distorted.
Relying on the full name search, he has found a few web pages and news reports related to these two girls. At this moment, he can hardly control his ferocious look.
"You are the second daughter of the Suzuki Group? And you, you are the daughter of detective Kogoro Mouri?!"
"Uh, yes..." Suzuki Sonoko shrank her shoulders , with a sly expression, "I didn't mean to hide it from you..."
Didn't you hide it from me on purpose? I think you want my life!
Tao Xie Masahiko took a few deep breaths and managed to control his emotions without letting himself show a ferocious expression.
Killing the second daughter of the Suzuki Group in front of the family of a famous detective, the subsequent impact of this is not at all the same concept as killing a random young girl who hooked up in a scenic spot!
Serial killings are certainly bad and can arouse great attention from the police, but the extent of the search and arrest that would result from such a level of harm to a wealthy person is probably beyond the imagination of ordinary people!
It is because he is worried about encountering this kind of problem that he has been looking for targets on this kind of itinerary where rich people rarely come. Who knows, he will bump into one after this!
What's worse is that this is not just a simple target, but also one of the witnesses that he has to eliminate in order to protect himself...
You said that you rich people can't go to the upper class because they have nothing to do. Do you want to live a dirty life? Why do you come to this place? !
Dohye Masahiko felt as if he had picked up a popsicle in the supermarket and found that the price was one digit more than expected. His heart was completely broken, and he was filled with cold hatred for the rich at this moment.
Kang Ze rested his chin in a leisurely manner and looked at Tao Xie Masahiko teasingly as his forehead began to sweat.
You are sweating now, little brother, what is a real assassin?
Suzuki Sonoko, who thought her topic had embarrassed Dao Xie Masahiko, rubbed her hands uneasily and turned her eyes to Karasawa for help.
No, it’s not easy to meet someone we can talk to. Are you going to be exposed because of the civilian route? Save me!
Tangze nodded and took the topic calmly: "Yes, actually I want to experience how ordinary tourists travel, and Sonoko respects my ideas. Well, let's change the topic. Well, let’s talk about the rumors about this restaurant, isn’t it said that there is a chance of photographing a female ghost who died in vain?”
The smiling Mao Lilan’s expression froze.
If you want to kill or chop you, go to Tao Xie Masahiko. What are you doing to hit me with your backhand?
Conan's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard the topic suddenly returned to the murder case a year ago.
He has not forgotten his original intention of coming today.
As long as Adachi Tohru solves this case before he can do it, he can steal the other party's opportunity to become a regular employee in disguise, and maybe he won't have to meet this person in Tokyo.
Having such a guy who is likely to be deeply involved with the organization appear in Tokyo, not far from Karasawa, is not a good thing.
"Actually, I am quite interested in this case." Before Mao Lilan started to tremble, Conan forced the conversation and changed the topic from metaphysics to the suspense channel, "Uncle Dao Xie said before , I think this case might not be that complicated, what do you think, Brother Tangze?”
Dao Xie Masahiko, who was already getting nervous, his eyebrows and heart were beating rapidly, and his eyelids began to tremble.
Call him brother and call me uncle, right?
And if you insist on talking about the case a year ago...
"It really shouldn't be that complicated." Tang Ze took the words and said in a flat analytical tone, "Before Having said that, repeated stabbing with a sharp weapon is actually a very targeted action. The murderer is male, and there is a high probability that the target is targeted at women with specific characteristics.”
As he spoke, he slowly looked around the scene, and finally focused his gaze on the empty space beside the dining table.
From Karasawa's perspective, although there are no "female ghosts" here, as the place where Dao Xie Masahiko's first victim visited shortly before his death, the blood mist here is darker than other places.
At that time, the victim might have been sitting near this table, eating without knowing anything, looking forward to this wonderful trip and the rest of his life.
No matter what her personality is like, what she looks like, or whether the similar characteristics to Doxie Masahiko's ex-girlfriend triggered traumatic memories in the other party, this is not the scumbag Doxie Masahiko venting his emotions on innocent people. reasons.
"Generally speaking, this type of serial murders will be accompanied by some additional violations." Tangze made a "you know" expression, "But unfortunately, none of the cases in this series are accompanied by such Behavior. This is actually a bit abnormal, either as I said before, the murderer has some obstacles, or..."
Tangze turned his eyes and captured the eyes of Dao Xie Masahiko, who was already wet with sweat. Face.
"The murderer's reason for killing may be related to a failed emotional experience, a failed relationship between the sexes, or a failed family environment. In other words, this is a person who does not receive the attention of women in normal life, is suppressed by women for a long time, is in love or marriage He suffered a failure and then took his anger out on innocent people. He is a coward."
When Tangze said this, he also added some body language, as if he wanted to make his concept clear to the people around him as much as possible, but he took a moment. The pressing fingers seemed to hit the heart with a hammer, making Tao Xie Masahiko's face twitch.
"I have indeed heard of this theory. Or is it the American criminal psychology?" Conan asked uncertainly as he listened to Tangze's words, more like trolling than analysis.
"Yes, the kind that the FBI likes to use." Karasawa chuckled, "How should I put it, I just feel unworthy for the victim. This person is even a scumbag, he did this It’s unremarkable and disappears into the crowd. It’s really a sample that doesn’t even have research value.”
“Bang!”
Dao Xie Masahiko, who could no longer listen to the disparaging words, slammed the table hard and stood up suddenly.
Under the gaze of others who turned around, he gritted his teeth and pointed to the road outside the floor-to-ceiling window, almost gasping.
"My car, my car is slowly sliding down, let me go out and take a look!"
Damn it, this kid named Tangze, just wait for me, as long as there is a chance suitable……!
