“I will go to your store again to eat ramen!”
Looking at Odawara Tetsuji who was looking at him silently, Akimoto Yasushiro mustered up the courage to say this.
And just such a simple sentence made Tetsuji Odawara's face show a look of surprise, and the smile on his face melted away the ferocity in an instant.
In the end, Akimoto Yasushiro watched Odawara Tetsuji's back disappearing at the corner of the street, with a worried look on his face.
"Don't worry, Mr. Odawara will be fine with Karasawa Criminal Police here." Looking at Akimoto Yasuyo who looked worried, Conan said in relief.
"I hope so." Akimoto Yasushiro only thought that Conan was comforting her, and the worry on his face still did not fade away.
The next day, Karasawa drove several little ones, including Haibara, to the "Iron Dragon" ramen shop again.
"Boss, here are six bowls of ramen."
Ignoring the sign saying "Preparing" at the gate, Karasawa shouted to Odawara Tetsuji after entering the room.
"welcome!"
Odawara Tetsuji smiled when he saw Karasawa and the five little ones and said, "Sit down wherever you want, I'll do it right away."
In order to thank Karasawa and Ji Xiaoji for their help, Odawara Tetsuji went to Karasawa specifically after solving the problem and said that he hoped they could come to the store to eat ramen.
However, Karasawa refused the treat because he was suspected of accepting bribes, and just smiled and said that he hoped to add more ingredients.
Although Odawara Tetsuji also knew that this was just an excuse for Karasawa to prevaricate, in the end he couldn't defeat Karasawa and had no choice but to agree.
Several little ones were also very concerned about the situation of this case and kept pestering Conan to go to Tang Ze Criminal to inquire about the situation, which led to the current scene.
"It turns out that Tang Ze Criminal really didn't lie to us."
After sitting down, Ayumi looked at Tetsuji Odawara who was busy in the kitchen and said happily: "Sister Yasushiro will definitely be happy when she knows!"
"Because the crime of theft he committed was his first offense, and the amount was relatively small, it was just a prop and costume. In addition, the forged criminal identity was not for profit. In addition, he assisted the police in catching criminals who continuously broke into empty doors.
Let him out first."
Tangze explained with a smile: "Of course, there will still be serious reprimands."
"This is a serious verbal warning." Haiyuan held his chin and said, "You really put a lot of effort into helping him."
"It doesn't really count, it's just a matter of handling it normally and according to the rules." Tang Ze said with a smile.
"Ah, that's right." Haiyuan glanced at Tang Ze: "Why do I feel like you are telling the Japanese radio station not to pursue the matter of missing props and costumes, and helping him resolve the problem of theft?"
"Then you are wrong. I really didn't say hello."
Tang Ze said with a smile: "The main reason is that his original intention was not to make profit, and in addition, after pretending to be a criminal, he did not do anything to harm the criminal image, and he caught the criminal, which saved him from disaster."
"Really." Haibara nodded noncommittally, put his loose hair behind his ears, took a mouthful of ramen and commented: "The craftsmanship tastes really good."
"Okay, let's eat quickly." Tang Ze picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, his eyes lit up.
fresh.
This is the first feeling that comes to your mouth after entering the mouth. The delicious soup and strong ramen instantly capture people's taste buds, making people want to take a second bite unconsciously.
Although it is just a simple soy sauce ramen, it is still full of flavor, especially when you take the second bite.
The perfect fusion of fresh soup and soy sauce makes people want to stop eating. Paired with sliced bamboo shoots and thick barbecued pork, a simple bowl of ramen is extremely enjoyable.
And now Karasawa finally understood why Tetsuji Odawara looked so fierce, but the daily business of the store was still so prosperous.
Obviously, the power of foodies is powerful, and a fierce-looking boss cannot stop diners from yearning for delicious food.
And as long as you eat here twice, this stereotyped first impression will change, and as the reputation grows, this small flaw will not affect anything.
After finishing a bowl of ramen with plenty of ingredients, Tang Ze and Wu Xiao both looked satisfied.
Because Karasawa insisted on paying for the ramen, the other party had no choice but to thank him for the ingredients. This night of luxurious ramen was extremely enjoyable.
"excuse me."
Just when Karasawa and others were sitting at the dining table to rest after eating ramen, the door of the original shop was opened again.
Everyone turned to look at the door, wondering who would come in with the "Under Preparation" sign hanging outside.
"Ah, it's eldest sister!" Ayumi saw the person coming at the door and immediately ran to her side with a smile: "eldest sister, are you here to eat boss ramen too?"
"Ah...yes..." Akimoto Yasushiro obviously did not expect to see Karasawa and others here, and he couldn't help but blush for some well-known reasons.
This is of course, after all, the "date" between myself and the other party was caught by other people.
"Okay, has everyone finished eating?"
Karasawa looked at the embarrassed and uncomfortable Akimoto Yasuyo and smiled at him, and then said to the little ones around him: "Let's leave after we finish eating and take you home."
"Well, let's go!" Mitsuhiko, who had already understood the situation, stood up with a smile. At the same time, he did not forget to urge Genta: "Hurry up."
"I haven't finished my soup yet..." Yuantai was reluctant to reach out for the ramen bowl, but Que Huiyuan took it away.
"Yantai-kun, you'd better not drink the soup." Haiyuan looked at Yuantai who couldn't read the air and said with a smile: "You will continue to gain weight!"
"Um..." Yuantai touched his belly and said with a guilty conscience: "What does it matter? Just a little soup, you won't get fat!"
"Soup is the easiest way to make people fat." Haibara put the other party's ramen bowl in front of him, "So for the sake of your body, it's better not to drink it."
"Okay, let's go quickly." Conan looked at Yun Tai and reminded in a low voice: "Don't be a light bulb here."
"Eh?"
After hearing Conan's words, Genta belatedly looked at Yasuyo Akimoto, and then at Tetsuji Odawara, who was busy silently on the side, with a look of surprise on his face: "You..."
"Idiot! Stop talking nonsense!" Seeing Yuantai's surprise, Conan, who had been on guard for a long time, covered Yuantai's mouth and said, "Let's go!"
Pulling the idiot Yuanta, the little ones walked out of the ramen shop with unstoppable "rippling" smiles on their faces.
"As for the money, I'll put it here." Tang Ze put the money on the table: "Thank you for the hospitality. I will come again if I have the opportunity."
After waving goodbye to the two of them, Karasawa closed the door of the ramen shop and the entire shop fell into silence for a while.
"Please, please sit down."
After a brief silence, Odawara Tetsuji invited Akimoto Yasuyo to sit down, and after asking him what flavor of ramen he wanted to eat, he started making it.
"At this age, this couple is still so dishonest."
Looking out the window, Haiyuan, who watched the two of them without any unnecessary communication throughout the whole process, clasped his hands and commented: "Like two pieces of wood."
"If you say that, they must be very dissatisfied." Conan said with a "hehehe" expression on his face.
"I don't think I have anything the same as them." Haiyuan turned on the anti-killing mode with a calm face: "On your side, although you show impatience, you are essentially the same as the two people in the house.
"
"You need to take care of it!" Hearing Haiyuan's words, Conan immediately broke his guard.
"Keep your voice down, get ready to leave." Tangze knocked on Conan's head and turned to leave: "Let's go, don't disturb others."
"I still want to watch it for a while." Yuantai's face showed reluctance and inquiring expectation: "I really want to know the follow-up development, right?"
"Indeed." Mitsuhiko nodded in agreement.
"But we can't disturb Big Sister and the others." Ayumi said from the side: "If it goes wrong, their good deeds will be ruined."
"Well... that's right..." Mitsuhiko pondered for a moment and then suddenly said happily: "Then let's ask them both separately when we have the opportunity, so that we can get the best of both worlds!"
"What a great idea!" Genta agreed: "And you can also have another bowl of ramen! I wonder if there is eel ramen..."
"Genta, you are really..." Mitsuhiko and Ayumi looked at Genta with speechless expressions.
"How can this be considered the best of both worlds?"
Watching the three little ones leaving with laughter, Conan on the side complained with his dead eyes: "It's basically a public execution for those two people..."
"Isn't this pretty good?" Haiyuan looked at the backs of the three little ones and said with a smile, "Maybe it will work unexpectedly."
"Really?" Conan looked suspicious: "Do you have any basis for saying that?"
"I see that when you are teased, even though you are very embarrassed, you can't help but have a silly smile on your face." Haibara gave Conan critical damage with a calm expression.
"How is that possible!" After hearing Haiyuan's words, Conan meowed like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"What's impossible?" Haiyuan smiled playfully: "That's the fact, right? Tang Ze Criminal."
"Yes, it's just that the person involved was too shy, so he didn't notice it."
Tangze chuckled and said, "But if you recall it carefully, you can smile knowingly even though you are shy, right?
When the embarrassment of being teased disappears, all that remains is the sweetness between you and her.
Just thinking of it can make people smile."
"Uh..." Conan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, recalling the scene where he was teased by Karasawa or Hattori Heiji.
"You laugh so disgustingly." Haiyuan looked at Conan, who had a look on his face, and said venomously: "The stupid look on his face doesn't reflect the wisdom of any famous detective at all."
"Hey!" Conan's face turned dark when he heard this, but the upward corners of his mouth showed the fact that he had smiled unconsciously just now.
So Conan decisively picked up the topic and continued to struggle with this topic, "Let's go, go home!"
"Hmph." Haiyuan looked at Conan who was running away and snorted, with a smile of victory on the corner of his mouth.
Afterwards, Tangze sent several small ones home respectively, and then drove back to his home.
Thinking of the previous conversation with Conan, Tang Ze couldn't help but smile.
Love is something that makes people blind. That kind of sour experience will certainly make you feel embarrassed and wish you could find a crack in the ground to crawl in, but after that, it is not a kind of support.
When you quarrel or have a cold war, these beautiful things will make you remember your original intentions and support you to go on for a long time.
However, Karasawa doesn't think that he and Ayako need this method to maintain their marriage. After all, two people who are indifferent and don't like to cause trouble will only become more harmonious and understanding if they stay together.
As for the kind of married life that is full of quarrels, joy and excitement, that is not what Tang Ze wants.
After returning home, Ayako hadn't come back yet. Karasawa first took off his coat, then went to the kitchen to count the ingredients, and finally planned to make tomato pasta for Ayako.
After all, he had eaten ramen with the five little ones in advance, and he didn't say hello to Ayako in advance. Naturally, he had to prepare it for Ayako alone in the evening.
You can wait until Ayako comes home to make the noodles. Karazawa prepares the tomato sauce for mixing the noodles in advance.
The pasta itself has no taste, and its essence lies in the sauce. Whether it is black pepper, tomato or even squid ink, the sauce gives it various tastes.
What Tang Ze made today was tomato beef sauce. After putting the tomatoes and fried beef cubes into the pot and boiling them, taking advantage of the time required to cook, Tang Ze opened the panel with a thought.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining 300 destiny points]
After checking the reward results, there is no suspense. It is a simple "guaranteed salary".
But that's not bad. After all, this time Tang Ze was basically just playing tricks and didn't contribute much at all. He just found the person pretending to be a criminal.
As for the thief who broke into the empty door, he was caught by others, and Tangze caught both criminals at once, which can be said to be a good example of "taking advantage of others".
Based on the level of effort in this wave, Tang Ze felt that if he hadn't caught two people at once, the reward this time might only be 200 points.
However, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still a piece of meat. This is how he saved up his ten consecutive cigarettes. In addition, he has no effort or energy. It is basically the same as "picking up money" in nature.
After checking the rewards, Tangze glanced at the remaining 800 destiny points and sighed.
Although I have a little money in my pocket, it is not enough for anything.
Putting his thoughts back, Tang Ze opened the stove on the side and placed the small pot underneath to prepare it.
With his hearing sensitivity, he could already hear the sound of Ayako opening the door after getting off the car outside the hospital.
"Sour and sweet, are you making tomato dishes?" After Ayako entered the house, she walked to the kitchen and looked into the room and asked, "What are you making?"
“Tomato pasta.”
Karasawa smiled and said: "Yesterday, the fake criminal asked me and Conan to eat ramen, so I made you a single serving of pasta.
Go and change your clothes quickly, we'll be fine after the meeting."
"Okay, I understand." Ayako smiled and walked towards the bedroom.
When Ayako came to the dining room from the bedroom, Karasawa also walked out of the kitchen with a letter of tomato and beef pasta.
