Chapter 694: Don’t you know that her Nan is the most stingy?
Fujino Yasuo instantly understood the look in his eyes - he regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. If he had known earlier, he should not have provoked the other person on impulse just because the other person was more handsome than him and stole the limelight!
But at this point, he still has hope: "Motives alone cannot convict someone. Do you have evidence?"
Hanyu Kusunoki suddenly changed the subject: "I heard that you won the title of 'Prince of Cake' with your chocolate wood cake, although..." His eyes swept over Kosaka Natsumi, "This title is not really worthy of the name."
How can a fake prince compare to a real princess?
Fujino Yasuo shouted: "Are you going to say that I killed someone with a wooden cake? That's ridiculous!"
Hanyu Kusuno ignored him and said to Officer Megure, "Officer Megure, please send someone to check Fujino Yasuo's console. I believe there will be a surprise."
"Yes!"
Inspector Megure immediately signaled the police officers to go in and search.
After a while, the police officer came out with some sawdust in the evidence bag in his hand.
"Report, we found these sawdust under Fujino Yasuo's operating table."
When Fujino Yasuo saw the sawdust in the police officer's hand, his face changed instantly.
"These sawdust..." Officer Megure took the evidence bag and examined it carefully. "It looks like..."
"Chocolate sawdust." Hanyu Kusuno took over the conversation and looked at Fujino Yasuo with a playful look. "To be precise, it is specially treated chocolate sawdust. Mr. Fujino, aren't you good at making chocolate wood cakes?"
Kosaka Natsumi suddenly cried out: "Ah! Could it be that..."
"That's right." Hanyu Nan gave her an approving look, "The store manager was 'killed' by the chocolate log cake."
There was an uproar at the scene.
Officer Megure looked puzzled: "Master Hanyu, what is going on? Can chocolate kill people?"
"Chocolate certainly can't kill people."
Hanyu Kusunoki said slowly: "But wood can kill people."
"Xiaolan."
"exist!"
Xiaolan, who appeared next to the house at some point, heard Hanyu Kusunoki's call, took a stance on the spot, took a deep breath, and punched the wall in front of her.
"boom!!!"
There was a loud bang, and the cake shop seemed to shake a few times.
As Xiaolan retracted her fist, a fist-sized crack appeared at the place where she had just hit. The biscuit coating on the outside had been broken, revealing the wooden structure inside.
Hanyu Kusunoki's voice sounded at the right time: "Although the appearance of this building is a cake house, it looks like you can eat anything, but in fact it is just covered with a layer of biscuit on the outside, and the inside is still a house made of wood.
"I think, Fujino Yasuo, that's where you got the inspiration to wrap the murder weapon in cake."
Xiaolan retracted her fist and shook her wrist which showed no reaction.
The eye-catching hole in the wall made everyone gasp.
"This...this..." Inspector Megure looked at the hole in shock, "So the murder weapon was a chocolate wood cake made of wood?"
Hanyu Kusuno nodded: "Yes, Fujino Yasuo used his best chocolate wood cake as a disguise."
Kosaka Natsumi whispered thoughtfully: "So those sawdust..."
"It's the remains of a murder weapon." Hanyu Kusuno took over her words, "Mr. Fujino, you deliberately chose a special kind of wood - iron birch. This kind of wood is as hard as iron and can be used as a murder weapon."
Fujino Tai'ao's face turned pale, beads of sweat kept dripping from his forehead. He struggled desperately and said, "Nonsense! Even if there are sawdust, so what? What can this prove?"
"Garden."
"Come on, come on!"
Yuanzi excitedly ran up to the crowd with a plate. Three exquisite chocolate wood cakes were neatly arranged and looked exactly the same.
She placed the tray on the table and proudly put her hands on her hips. "It's finally my turn to make an appearance!"
Hanyu Kusunoki gave her a praiseful look, then looked at Kosaka Natsumi, "Natsumi, can you, as a pastry chef, tell me which of these three cakes is 'special'?"
"I'm not worthy of being a master. I'm just a little bit smarter than others." Natsumi Kosaka smiled playfully, then elegantly picked up the knife and gently tapped the surface of the first cake.
"This sound is too clear..." She shook her head and turned to the second one, "This echo is too muffled..."
When the tip of the knife touched the third cake, her movements suddenly stopped. The knife gently scraped across the surface of the cake, making a strange sound.
"This one." She pointed to the cake in the middle without hesitation. "It sounds wrong. The density is obviously higher than the other two."
Hanyu Nan nodded approvingly: "As expected of a pastry chef who graduated from Le Cordon Bleu in Paris."
He took the knife and, under everyone's nervous gaze, slowly cut the cake that was pointed out.
The blade encountered obvious resistance just after it cut into one-third of the surface.
"Look carefully." Hanyu Kusunoki exerted a little force with his hands, and with a crisp "click" sound, the cake was split into two - inside it was a piece of dark brown hard wood, with dark red marks remaining on the edge.
"Blood...blood!" Officer Megure exclaimed.
Fujino Tai's legs softened and he fell to his knees: "I...I..."
"This is the murder weapon." Hanyu Kusunoki put down the knife and wiped his fingers. "You wrapped the iron birch wood block with a special chocolate shell, and hit the store manager on the back of his head while he was tasting it. Afterwards, disguise the murder weapon as an ordinary cake and find a chance to dispose of it."
"But you didn't expect," Kosaka Natsumi added with a smile, "that just because you were so impulsive, you provoked someone who shouldn't be provoked, and your plan, which should have been perfect, was completely ruined."
Sonoko looked at Fujino Yasuo, who was kneeling on the ground and crying, and gave him a look of silence.
Why did he dare to mess with her Nan when there were so many people he could mess with?
Don’t you know that Nan in her family is the most stingy?
Officer Megure also sorted out his thoughts at this time: "Fujino Yasuo, do you have anything else to say?"
Fujino Yasuo suddenly laughed hysterically: "Hahaha...that old bastard deserved it! He promised to let me start my own business, but he took my recipe for himself...the chocolate log cake that I worked so hard to develop ended up becoming his cash cow!"
His laughter faded into sobs. “I…I just want to take back what belongs to me…”
Officer Megure sighed and motioned for the police officer to handcuff him: "Fujino Yasuo, you are suspected of murder. You are now formally arrested."
