Chapter 127 Non-staff members
"Boss, where do you get your ingredients?" Jiuqi Shinobu stood up and stood between Coral Palace Xinhai and the old professor. She raised her head, with her grass-green hair tied up and wearing a face armor, dressed like a ninja.
The boss paused with the spatula in his hand, and said in confusion: "It's the meat stored in the kitchen... What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
"The old gentleman said that the meat here is human flesh." Rosalia sat in her seat without moving, as if the current situation was not enough for her to stand up. She looked extremely calm.
"Human flesh..." the boss repeated, then jumped up in anger, pointed his spatula at the old professor and yelled, "You're talking nonsense! My meat is absolutely pure pork! Every time the farm sends me a whole pig, it's my wife who starts killing the pigs and cutting the pork the day before! What human flesh? I've never even seen it!"
Shinobu Jiuqi had no intention of suppressing the boss. Rumors are powerful. If there was a problem with the meat in a breakfast shop, and if there was no clear explanation on the spot or strong evidence was not provided, it would only become increasingly difficult for the shop to run in the future.
Of course, if there was something wrong with this store, they would be arrested.
Compared with the angry boss, the gray-haired old professor was much weaker. He trembled in front of the boss with a fat face, as if he was afraid.
"Is your meat really okay?"
"That's right, if it's really human flesh, just admit it!"
"Could it be that you killed someone and didn't want to deal with it, so you gave it to us to eat?"
"Oh my god, I can tell from the first glance that this boss is not a good person. I never thought he would do such a thing."
The whispers were getting louder and louder. The boss, who was obviously big and strong with a face full of flesh and looked quite ferocious, now looked like a trapped bird, explaining to the diners around him with a pale face and in vain.
"If you say this is not human flesh, how are you going to prove it?" someone shouted in the crowd.
When the boss heard this, it was like he had found a life-saving straw. He looked at the old professor and questioned loudly: "You are the one who said that my store serves human meat, right? How do you know that our store doesn't serve pork? You can spread rumors with just your mouth. I can also say that what you said is false!"
The old professor's neck instantly turned red. He glared and said angrily, "I am a professor at the University of Tokyo, specializing in agriculture and animal husbandry. Of course, I have studied the comparison between various types of meat!"
"Human meat is firmer and chewier than pork. This subtle difference will only make diners feel that today's buns are more delicious and more addictive!"
The boss's face turned even darker: "That's because I just changed the ingredients this morning!"
"Well, why did you change the material for no reason? Are you feeling guilty?"
"That batch of materials just arrived last night. If I don't use it today, when will I use it? You have nothing in your head. You call yourself a professor from the University of Tokyo? I think you are just a fake professor!"
The two people were arguing with each other with red faces and thick necks. At first glance, it seemed that both of them were right, but upon closer inspection, there was something strange about it.
What kind of food will make people addicted after eating it once and want to keep eating it?
How come he is a professor who studies agriculture and animal husbandry so clearly knows the taste of human flesh? He can even describe the comparison between human flesh and pork so clearly?
Just then, a police car drove in from the market entrance with sirens blaring, and several familiar-looking police officers got out.
“Who is the person who reported the case?”
"Mr. Policeman, it's me." The blond and dark-skinned man walked out of the crowd and called the police as soon as the riot broke out here.
Coral Palace Xinhai just glanced at it and stopped paying attention, but when he turned around, he saw Jiuqi Shinobu's strange expression.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this person?" Coral Palace Xinhai approached Jiuqi Shinobu calmly and asked in a low voice.
"He tried every possible means to get in. He's quite a strange person." Kuki Shinobu responded in the same low voice.
"It's you again, Mr. Amuro." Inspector Megure scratched his hair helplessly. He felt that he could always find him, or brother Mori, or one of the boarding students, Edogawa Conan, at the crime scene.
Amuro Toru smiled and pointed at the boss and the old professor next to him: "That's them, Mr. Officer."
"Tell me, what's going on." Inspector Megure looked at the people present.
The boss stepped forward quickly and said, "Mr. Officer, he, he is the one who slandered our store by using human flesh! Hurry up and arrest him to clear our store's name."
The old professor blew his beard and glared, "That's all nonsense! I'm a professor of agriculture and animal husbandry at Dongda University. Mr. Officer can look up my information on Dongda University's information network! I'm a professional, I can taste it, it tastes completely different from pork!"
"Takagi, go check it out." Officer Megure instructed his officers, "Do you mind if we take some samples for testing?"
"No problem, no problem." The boss quickly shook his head and made way.
"What's going on?" The proprietress, who was busy in the kitchen, was politely brought out by the police. She rubbed her scarf in confusion and looked at the boss.
"It's okay. We are upright and have no fear of being checked." Although he said this, the boss's hands were tangled in anxiety.
Coral Palace Xinhai looked at the three people, then glanced at the ordinary decorated breakfast shop. Her intuition told her that things would definitely not be that simple.
Just as she was thinking, Toru Amuro walked lightly to their table with a cheerful smile on his face: "Hello, I am considered a non-staff member of Teyvat, you are..."
Although he did not actually join the organization of Teyvat, it did not prevent him from forging his identity to gain trust.
According to his observation, the people of this organization are widely distributed, and he has a signal interceptor on him. As long as they send a message out, it will definitely reach Toru Amuro first.
Anyway, I'm already undercover in an organization, so one more won't be too much.
Amuro Toru thought extremely optimistically.
Wendy tilted her head, looked at the young man, and said in distress: "Are you a non-staff member? Oh, I don't think I've heard the old man say that."
Amuro Toru's smile became more sincere again: "I was brought in by Ju Ningning, but... I haven't obtained the certificate from you yet."
Pointing at the Eyes of God hanging on different clothes of the four people, Toru Amuro's smile softened a little.
"Ningning brought her in?" Rosalia straightened up. "Wasn't she in solitary confinement?"
Wendy shook her head: "Oh, you remembered it wrong again. Ningning was put in solitary confinement yesterday afternoon. Rich man estimates that she will not be released until tomorrow morning. You have to rely on Xinhai."
