Chapter 2492 Crows have a wide range of recipes

 Tachibana Yuki and the others all changed their shoes and started to lead the way into the room next to them.

The spacious room is paved with tatami mats, an ancient painting hangs on the wall opposite the door, and a multi-layered knife rack is placed on the cabinet below.

Other than that, the only furniture in the room is two wooden tables.

The large wooden table in the center is large enough for more than ten people to sit around. There are laptops and some miscellaneous things on the table. Teacups placed in different positions mark the positions where several people in the room were seated previously.

There was a small table in the corner at the entrance. There was a landline phone on the table. A line came out of the phone line interface and was connected to a device that looked like a black box.

When Conan entered the door, he slowed down and looked at the black box curiously.

"This is the recording equipment brought by Master Mo and Mr. Kuroki," Hattori Heiji stopped next to Conan and looked at the black box and introduced, "It is the same equipment used by the police. As long as the kidnapper calls, this equipment can record

The voice of the call is recorded, and the recording can be played repeatedly later, so maybe we can find clues from the phone call from the kidnapper."

Tachibana Yukihira walked to the big table and knelt down at the main seat. "I always thought that the village was the safest. The villagers and the people working nearby were all my own people. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing. I had never been in the village before."

Prepare this kind of equipment at home..."

Tachibana Yukihei's wife, Feimo Shota and Hattori Heiji were in the room before, and now they have returned to their previous seats.

Tachibana Yukihira's wife sat next to Tachibana Yukihira, Feimo sat facing the door, next to Tachibana Yukihira, and further to the right was Hattori Heiji's seat.

When Conan saw the photo album and photos placed in front of Hattori Heiji, he sat down next to Hattori Heiji. He laughed inwardly when he found that Chi Feichi had sat down facing the ten-year-old shota.

He thought that Chi Feichi would be curious about the information about the kidnapping case and sat next to them. He almost forgot that as the main guest invited by Tachibana Yukiping, Chi Feichi needed to sit next to Tachibana Yukiping...

Opposite Conan, Haiyuan Ai sat next to Chi Feichi, followed by Dr. A Li.

The three children moved closer to Conan and sat down next to him.

Soon, Kuroki Yasuji and the middle-aged maid were the only ones in the room who did not sit down.

The middle-aged maid carried a tray and placed the hot tea prepared in advance in front of everyone one by one.

Kuroki Yasuji stood next to Feimo Shota, leaned over and pushed the laptop away from the table, put the packed things on the table, and also helped Chi Feichi pick up the things that Chi Feichi had packed back.

The portions are equally divided and placed on the table.

"Xiao Mo, you have been busy for such a long time. I couldn't treat you well for lunch, and I couldn't prepare snacks for you at home. Please try our special delicacies," Tachibana Yukihira said to Fei Mo in a gentle tone,

Then he looked at Chi Feichi and others, "The same goes for everyone. It would be rude if I didn't entertain Master Feichi when he came here. And I heard that Master Feichi studied under the famous detective Mouri Kogoro, Yu Nanase

When it comes to such a thing, I just hope that more and more people can do it, and I don’t care whether it will cause trouble to Master Fei Chi. In addition, Xiao Mo and Detective Hattori also suggested that I tell you the matter. You can start from the camping

If you come over there, you might find someone suspicious, so I invite you all to come here. If you don’t mind, I hope you can help provide clues or suggestions when you taste the special delicacies. Thank you in advance!"

After saying that, Tachibana Yukihei put his hands on his knees and bowed deeply.

"You don't have to be polite," Chi Feichi replied politely, "When something like this happens, we can't just sit idly by and do nothing. We will do our best to help find Miss Nanaze."

Neither Dr. Agasa nor the Young Detective Team expected that Tachibana Yukihei would salute so solemnly.

After regaining consciousness, Dr. Ali and the three children also quickly expressed their stance.

"Yes, yes, if there is a need, we will definitely try our best to help!"

"The same goes for our boy detective team!"

Hattori Heiji didn't want the atmosphere to be too depressing, so he sorted out the stationery in the evidence bag in front of him and said in a relaxed tone, "Then, while tasting the special food, I will share the clues I have so far with Fei Chi and Ke... cough

Huh, let me tell you, although it is a bit inappropriate to eat now, I heard that the special delicacies here are rich in protein. The kidnappers have not called yet. If it is later, we will not delay any more. I probably need to think about it.

There are other ways to search, and now I need to eat something to replenish energy..."

Conan looked at Hattori Heiji with complicated eyes.

Is Hattori so relaxed because he likes eating insects, or because he still doesn’t know what the special delicacies here are?

Feimo looked at the food boxes placed by Kuroki Yasuji on the table and asked Hattori Heiji next to him, "There are skewers here. Would you like Detective Hattori to try this first?"

"Well..."

Hattori Heiji turned around and saw the contents of the food box, his relaxed expression solidified on his face.

One of the food boxes contained a handful of deep-fried skewers, yes, but there were three large spiders skewered on each skewer. Each one was nearly the size of a baby's fist, and the spider legs were curled up in front of the abdomen due to the baking.

, the spider's legs were densely covered with small spines and looked furry, and there were also a few translucent grains of salt that had not melted completely... This was definitely not the fried skewers he had imagined.

"Master Mo, I suggest you eat live hornet larvae first," Yasushi Kuroki handed out wooden chopsticks and suggested to his young master in a gentle voice, "Although the store asked me to bring the larvae back in a bamboo woven box, they did not put them in a sealed box.

in the food box, but over time, the larvae will die easily, which may affect the overall taste."

Hattori Heiji looked at the opened bamboo box on the table, his expression became even stiffer, "Are you going to eat alive..."

The bamboo box was small and delicate, but it was filled with hornet larvae. The larvae were still alive and huddled together.

After reading this box, he suddenly felt that spider skewers were not unacceptable.

The three children, Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi, huddled next to Conan and looked at the box, feeling that the psychological shadow caused by the visit to the specialty gourmet store just now came back.

Tachibana Yukihira's eyebrows were still filled with worry, but he still explained aloud, "Eating them alive can ensure that nutrients will not be lost. These are farmed larvae that are healthy and guaranteed. You can eat them with confidence."

Seeing that Tachibana Yukihira was not in the mood to talk, Kuroki Yasuji smiled and helped, "When Mr. Yukihira was a child, chasing bees and eating insects was the greatest holiday fun for children. Even now, children still like to catch insects.

There is a bee-chasing and insect-eating event in Kyoto every year, and many middle-aged people take their children to participate.”

Hattori Heiji's expression softened.

Speaking of the tradition of "chasing bees and eating worms", he felt that these foods were pretty good, not inedible...

While Kuroki Yasuji was talking, Feimo had already put five or six hornet larvae in small plates, squeezed some tomato sauce on them, and used chopsticks to pick up a still-moving larvae and put it into his mouth.

Hattori Heiji:"……"

He still really can't accept eating it alive, especially when it's dipped in ketchup.

Chi Feichi also opened the bamboo box that he packed back, took out the small plate and ketchup that came with it, and looked at Dr. A Li, "Doctor, you guys..."

Dr. A Li quickly smiled and waved his hand, "I'd better try the fried crickets!"

Haibara Ai felt that she could overcome the psychological barrier of eating larvae alive, but considering the feelings of the three children, she decided not to try. She looked at the larvae in the bamboo box and said, "They still look very energetic, but they will die for a while."

No, it’s better to let everyone try other foods first and get used to the atmosphere of eating insects.”

Chi Feichi thought it made sense, so he pushed the fried crickets, grilled spider skewers and other foods to the middle of the table, and took a skewer of grilled spiders.

Feichi peeked his head out of Chi Feichi's collar, looked at Feimo opposite who was happily eating bugs, and looked down at the skewers in Chi Feichi's hand, "Master, I want to try them all..."

Chi Feichi took off a roasted spider with his hands and placed it in front of Fei Chi. After Fei Chi swallowed the roasted spider in one gulp, he took off the second one and tasted it himself.

After all, the young lady opposite him is still a crow.

As omnivorous animals, crows eat a wide range of diets, including grains, berries, insects, carrion, and eggs from other animals. It is not surprising that non-Crows like to eat insects, and it is even less surprising that they like to eat insect larvae alive.

Strange.

What bird doesn't like some fresh bugs?

He is not a bird and does not enjoy eating insects, but as long as the food is healthy and nutritious, he does not mind trying it.

Dr. Agasa and Hattori Heiji took the children to eat fried crickets. Since they tasted pretty good, they looked much better.

What's important is that the young master next to him and Chi Feichi ate hornet larvae alive, and the other ate spider skewers. Both of them ate without changing their expressions, as if they were just eating something common and worthy of careful tasting.

Delicious food makes them feel that eating insects alive is not something worth fussing about.

"Um..." Ayumi ate two fried crickets, looked at Feimo Shota, and asked hesitantly, "Please, are you Senior Mizuno from Class A in the fourth year?"

Conan looked at Ayumi in surprise.

Could it be that Class A for four years is...

Feimo was very sure that he had never had formal contact with the Junior Detective Team before. He turned to look at Ayumi, deliberately hesitated for a moment, and then nodded, "Yes, I forgot to introduce myself just now. It's really rude. I'm Mizuno Mo, indeed. Studying in Class A of the fourth year of Tokyo Tedan Elementary School, you are..."

Hearing Feimo himself say "studied at Didan Elementary School", Mitsuhiko and Genta's eyes widened and they quickly became excited.

"So you are also a student of Didan Primary School? We also study in Didan Primary School, and we are students of Class B in the first year!"

"We are also friends with Xiaoshu. We used to take Xiaoshu out to play together!"

Feimo looked at the excited two people and nodded again, "I think I heard Xiaoshu and Brother Feichi tell you that when you took Xiaoshu to play in an abandoned warehouse, you saw someone killing someone, and then you ran to the murderer and was about to throw him away. In the truck carrying the body, witness with your own eyes the whole process of the murderer dumping the body in the wild..."

Yuantai, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi: "..."

So what...

There’s no need to mention this thing that seems like bringing a child to death, right?

Conan, Haihara Ai: "..."

Although this matter has nothing to do with them, but...

Dr. A Li: "..."

You will still feel guilty.

Tachibana Yukihei was stunned for a moment, looked at the children who suddenly became quiet, and then confirmed with Feimo Shota, "I remember your grandfather said before when we were enjoying the cherry blossoms, the little tree is not yet two years old this year, right?"

"Yes," Feimo replied, "but Xiaoshu is very courageous. He didn't seem to be scared last time."

Tachibana Yukihira: "..."

Does a child over one year old really know what he has experienced? Is it normal that he is not scared?
