"You're so polite," Takatori Yan'an said with a smile, "It's so cold tonight, it's perfect to have a bowl of hot ramen!"
Mouri Kogoro's eyes lit up, and he felt like he had met a confidant, "Do you think so too? As soon as I went out tonight, I felt that this weather is the most suitable for eating ramen!"
Chi Feichi between the two: "..."
These two people were so good at talking that he suddenly wanted Takatori to take off his sunglasses and let the two of them continue chatting in front of each other's faces that were similar to his...
"Yes," Takatori Yannan nodded in approval, "I was still thinking about whether to suggest that the boss eat ramen or hot pot..."
"Hot pot is actually a good choice," Mouri Kogoro thought for a while, "but there don't seem to be any famous hot pot restaurants around here."
Ayashi Ohashi poured two glasses of water for Ike Feichi and Takatori Yannan, placed them in front of them, and confidently promised, "You will definitely not be disappointed if you have a bowl of ramen here!"
Mouri Kogoro felt that the atmosphere of the dinner party was coming, and said with a smile, "Then I really want to try it!"
"Speaking of which," Ayashi Ohashi looked at Chi Feichi and asked with concern, "Is it okay for Mr. Chi to eat Enma Daioh ramen today? You said before that your digestion is not good because of the reduced amount of exercise."
"I feel much better in the past two days." Chi Feichi replied.
Koya Ogura, who was cooking noodles with his back to everyone, turned around and said with a smile, "As long as you don't mind, I will try my best to cook the noodles for you as soft as possible without affecting the taste!"
Chi Feichi nodded, "Then I'll trouble you."
"Is Feichi a regular customer of your place?" Mouri Kogoro asked curiously, "From what you said, has he been here to eat ramen recently?"
Conan saw a group of people chatting enthusiastically, so he climbed off the stool and went to the bathroom without disturbing them.
"Little brother, there are clean towels on the sink!" Ohashi Ayoyo noticed Conan's behavior and warned him before answering Mouri Kogoro's question with a smile, "Although Mr. Chi doesn't come very often, he does.
He comes here from time to time, so he must be considered a regular customer! He seems to have recommended our ramen shop to his friends, but he has always been a very quiet person. Not only does he often come to the shop alone, but he also eats in the corner and then leaves, which he doesn’t like very much.
Talking to other people, and even if he recommended our ramen shop to his friends, he never mentioned it to us. He had been injured before and returned from abroad. His friend happened to be eating ramen here and called him, so we found out what happened.
The two regular customers are acquaintances."
"A man secretly came here to eat ramen, it really seems like this guy's style..." Kogoro Mouri muttered in a low voice, glanced at Chi Feichi, and said with half-moon eyes, "But he has never recommended your restaurant to me.
!”
"Teacher, you never said you like to eat ramen," Chi Feichi looked as usual, "I don't want anyone to come over to eat because of my favor and go against their own preferences, so I just brought this place to me when I was working at the pet hospital.
The store was recommended to my assistant.”
"Well, that's right," Mouri Kogoro scratched his head in embarrassment and added, "But your assistant may have come here because of your favor..."
"Hey, you put it this way, it feels like we can't retain customers in our store by the taste of food," Ayashi Ohashi said unconvinced, "That customer came here alone, and it seems that he didn't tell Mr. Chi
But, doesn’t this mean that he doesn’t come here just to please others, but comes here sincerely?”
"Sorry, sorry!" Mouri Kogoro apologized with a smile, and looked around again, "But there don't seem to be many guests here..."
"That's for other reasons!" Ohashi Ayashi was a little depressed, "It's definitely not because there's something wrong with the taste or service of our ramen!"
Chi Feichi remembered something and looked at Ohashi Ayashiro and said, "My assistant...I don't know if he has mentioned it to you. He is interested in the detective industry. After resigning, he tried to be a private detective. I knew you guys last time.
After someone in the store caused trouble, he wanted to help you investigate that person. You said that the other person was planning to buy this commercial street. He had investigated and found that the person who wanted to buy this commercial street should be a real estate company operating in the Shinjuku area.
Xijin Desheng, right?"
The last time he and Toru Amuro came here to eat ramen, Kouga Ogura confiscated the money. Toru Amuro seemed to want to repay Kouma Ogura's enthusiasm, so he helped with the investigation. However, Toru Amuro couldn't come over recently, so when he was asked to come over
Please help me.
"Ah..." Ayashi Ohashi was stunned for a moment before nodding in response, "Yes, that's him..."
Ogura Koya sighed, turned to Chi Feichi and sighed, "I really didn't expect that he would help with the investigation and let you worry about us. I'm really sorry... I think it's better to have ramen tonight.
I'll treat……"
"Mr. Ogura," Chi Feichi's eyelids twitched, and he interrupted Koya Ogura's request for a treat. He looked at Ayashi Ohashi beside him, "You can't let the clerk drink the northwest wind with you, can you? And you
This will make us feel very embarrassed."
"Yes, it's not easy for you to run a store," Mouri Kogoro said with a smile, "I have agreed to treat you tonight, but boss, you can't steal it from me!"
"Okay, okay." Koya Ogura smiled sheepishly.
Chi Feichi continued, "Also, although he investigated something and found out something, unfortunately, he couldn't help in this matter."
"It's no wonder that guy from Nishijin has something to do with a violent society, right?" Ayashi Ohashi smiled, "We are very touched that you can have such a heart, so you can leave it alone. My boss and I
I don’t want you to get into trouble either.”
"Xijin is indeed connected to violent societies," Chi Feichi said calmly, looking at Ohashi Ayashiro, "but the problem lies in his situation. Xijin used to follow a very important backbone in the society, so he was able to get
It's a good job to run a real estate company, but just this year, the backbone was defeated in the gang war and was in ruins. Others focused on him who worked for the backbone in recent years and have been suppressing him this year. His company is almost bankrupt.
, Therefore, he wanted to buy this commercial street at a low price because he did not have much funds to mobilize, and he wanted to fight at the last moment. In other words, there is no room for adjustment in this matter. If we use other
If you try to force him to give up, he will not only lose everything, but may also be in debt. Coupled with the eye-catching suppression of some people in the society, he may not be able to survive."
Because of this, Toru Amuro had no choice but to ask the police to warn Nishizu Tokusori. The other party was almost at the end of his rope, and the police couldn't really force someone to jump off the building, right?
Ayayo Ohashi was stunned for a moment, his voice was not as loud as before, but he still said in a bad mood, "That guy is in such a difficult situation. Every time he makes people come over to cause trouble, he always looks bossy. I thought he was in the club."
You can talk!"
Chi Feichi did not follow Ayashi Ohashi's complaints and continued to analyze rationally, "Some of the gangsters he had originally belonged to a community of interests with him. If the real estate company in Xijin goes bankrupt, those gangsters will lose their jobs, and they are around Xijin."
The gangsters who remain today will probably never be accepted by the opposing side again, so Xijin cannot be underestimated, and because this is a last-ditch battle, once they are cornered, they may do some dangerous things..."
"But no matter how difficult it is for you, you can't protect yourself by hurting others," Ayashi Ohashi couldn't help shouting, "let alone an innocent person who has nothing to do with him becoming like this!"
"Ayoshi..." Kōya Ogura turned his head and cast a restraining glance at Ayō Ohashi.
"I..." Ayashi Ohashi lowered his head and apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Chi, I'm not yelling at you, it's just..."
Ogura Koya sighed, looked at Chi Feichi and said, "Actually, Ayoshiro's father..."
"Wow."
The store door was opened, interrupting Komasa Ogura's words.
The middle-aged man who entered the door was wearing a crisp black suit. His square face was covered with fine lines left by the years. He wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses. However, he definitely didn't give off the impression of being polite. Instead, he seemed slightly solemn.
It feels like something not to be trifled with.
That seems to be the feeling shared by some senior members of Japanese violent societies. When the society is legal, these people are obviously doing some illegal and disciplinary things in private, but on the surface they still look like employees of a large company, and they only occasionally do so.
It shows the evil spirit of "If you don't obey me again, I will be rude to you".
As soon as Mouri Kogoro saw it, he vaguely guessed the identity of the person coming.
Could it be that Cao Cao has arrived? Is this the Xijin Desheng they just talked about?
"What are you doing here again? Get out of here! I don't have any ramen for you here!"
Koya Ogura's attitude of turning around and yelling at people was even more proof of the identity of the person coming.
Conan wiped his hands from the bathroom and came out, looking curiously at Nishijin Tokusori who was minding his own business.
In the bathroom, he also vaguely heard some conversations outside. Although Chi Feichi's tone was soft and steady, which made him unable to hear some words clearly, he still got a general idea.
This man’s situation doesn’t seem to be very good either…
In the store, Mouri Kogoro and Takatori Isao also looked sideways at Nishizu Tokusori who came in.
"Hey, how can you talk to customers with such an attitude?" Nishizu Tokusori looked at the people in the store, and his eyes focused on Takatori Isao, who was wearing a black suit and sunglasses, giving him a sense of oppression.
For a moment, "The store that has been deserted for several days suddenly has a few customers. Are you so arrogant that you want to shut out other customers?"
As for Chi Feichi, who was sitting in a raised wheelchair with his back to the door, he was ignored by Xijin Desheng.
Chi Feichi wanted to see Xijin Desheng, but he had no choice.
If the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae are not moved, and a person can turn his head only by relying on the cervical vertebrae, the angle of rotation is limited. He cannot rotate his head 180 degrees, and he cannot see Xijin coming from behind when he turns his head.
This location is so annoying.
"There is no business in the store, and it's not because your boys come to my store all day long to cause trouble!" Ogura Kōya said angrily.
Conan returned to the seat next to Mouri Kogoro and prepared to see what Nishizu Tokusori was doing.
"I'm really sorry. They are all young and vigorous people. It's easy to quarrel over trivial matters." Nishijin Tokusori stopped at the corner of the bar and said to Ogura Komasa with a relaxed expression, "They are here
I'll pay for all the broken tableware here."
Chi Feichi: "..."
Can this guy move forward without stopping behind him?
