Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World

Toru Amuro was busy in the kitchen as usual, preparing delicious food with a focused and charming look on his face.

Azusa Enomoto was at the counter, carefully checking the list of goods. Yuki Kudo was sitting closest to Toru Amuro, eating the food in front of her with gusto, a satisfied smile on her face.

At this moment, Maori Kogoro happily pushed open the door of the store and greeted loudly: "Good morning!"

Kudo Yuki looked up at Maori Kogoro and said, "Mr. Maori, you seem to be in a good mood today."

Maori Kogoro stared at the food that Amuro Toru was making, full of anticipation: "I can already smell the fragrance, it's so tempting, I can't wait!"

Ran Mouri and Conan stood at the door of the store and looked curiously into the store for a while.

Without even looking up, Enomoto Azusa continued to work on his task: "Mr. Mori, we haven't started business yet."

Amuro Toru introduced the new dish with a smile: "This is the tomato milk soup that we sell for breakfast. It has meatballs and cabbage in it. It is carefully cooked and has a rich and delicious taste."

Maori Kogoro pointed at the new dish excitedly and said, "It looks good. Give me one to try."

Then, Mao Lilan and Conan also walked into the store, sat down next to Kudo Yuki and ordered food. Enomoto Azusa turned the sign on the store door to open for business, and then hurried to do other preparations.

"Sister Xue, what's the matter with the red mark on your neck?" Mao Lilan's eyes were filled with concern. "Was it a mosquito bite?"

Kudo Yuki subconsciously covered the red mark on her neck, glared at Amuro Toru beside her, and muttered unhappily: "Yes, I was bitten by a mosquito."

Amuro Toru touched his nose, looking a little embarrassed, then opened the small refrigerator and changed the subject: "Let me see the cake, it's like this again."

When Azusa Enomoto saw the cake that Toru Amuro took out, she couldn't help but screamed, "Oh my!"

Kudo Yuki looked at the failed cake and shook her head helplessly: "Enomoto, you don't have to shout so loudly."

"Why did the cake become like this again? It was still fine when I made it yesterday evening."

Kudo Yuki shrugged: "Cut it up and give each person a portion, and serve it to the guests."

The six people sat together, eating the cake and praising it. Conan picked up a piece with a fork and put it in his mouth, savoring it carefully: "It has a strong egg flavor."

Amuro Toru held up the small piece of cake in his hand and said, "That's because I added more eggs when I made it, wanting to make the taste richer."

Azusa Enomoto frowned, looking a little worried: "The cake has melted like this, there is no way to sell it to customers. This will affect the reputation of the store."

Conan rested his chin on his hand, lost in thought: "Why did it melt?"

Azusa Enomoto stared at the cake, her face full of confusion: "This is really a headache, what went wrong? It was fine when we made it yesterday evening, how come it became like this in just one night?"

Amuro Toru had a serious expression and thought seriously: "We have to find a way to solve this problem. After all, it is the signature of the store."

Everyone fell into deep thought, trying to find the key to solving the problem of melting cake.

Not long after, Kudo Yuki turned her head inadvertently and saw Conan talking to the Junior Detective League members with a communicator in his hand at the door. Conan was chatting excitedly about the new cakes in the store, and he looked so excited as if he had discovered a new world.

When Ayumi, Genta and Mitsuhiko arrived excitedly, the cake had already been sold out. The anticipation on their faces instantly turned into deep regret.

Amuro Toru looked at the lost children and explained with a smile: "I have just contacted the refrigerator after-sales service. It is being repaired now. There should be no problem tomorrow."

At this time, the repairman stood up and wiped the oil off his hands: "Hello, I checked it carefully and there is nothing wrong with the refrigerator."

After hearing this, Azusa Enomoto frowned even more tightly, "There's nothing wrong with the refrigerator, so why is the cake melting?"

Toru Amuro did not answer. He folded his hands over his chest and fell into deep thought.

Ayumi's eyes lit up, and she thought of a way to attract everyone's attention. She quickly walked to Kudo Yuki's side, and Kudo Yuki saw this, gently squatted down, smiled and listened to Ayumi's method.

After hearing this, Kudo Yuki showed a relieved smile on her face. She reached out and rubbed Ayumi's head, then took out some Japanese yen from her bag and handed it to Conan: "Here you go."

Conan took the money and was impatiently pulled away by Ayumi and the other two.

After a while, they brought back a small piece of the same cake. Conan handed the remaining money to Kudo Yuki, who smiled and shook her head, whispering in his ear: "The rest is yours."

Everyone gathered around the cake on the table. Amuro Toru observed carefully: "Most cakes with a lot of eggs are this color."

Conan stared at the shape of the cake, thinking: "If I apply the same amount of cream in a similar way, it will look very similar."

Kudo Yuki walked up to the crowd with a drink and a fork: "Let's try it first and see the difference."

After everyone tasted it, while drinking the drinks, Kudo Yuki frowned slightly: "Even if they are similar, the taste of each person is different."

The three children looked determined and said they would find out why the cake melted. Conan looked at his sister with expectation: "Sister Xue, can you install a camera here tonight?"

Kudo Yuki took a sip of tea and said, "No, this is too troublesome. And can you guarantee your own safety?"

Azusa Enomoto also quickly agreed: "The store manager is right. After all, this is our store's problem. We can't let you kids take risks."

Amuro Toru looked at the three little ones' lost expressions and comforted them with a smile: "Don't worry, I will let everyone eat delicious cakes in a few days, I promise."

"Really?" The three little ones widened their eyes and stared at Toru Amuro with anticipation.

"Have you thought of a solution?" Conan raised his head and asked curiously.

Amuro Toru's eyes were serious: "I almost have an idea."

So, after the three little ones left, Toru Amuro and Conan walked side by side. Toru Amuro looked at the surveillance videos on Conan's phone, "Is this the footage you took from outside the store?"

Conan stared at the surveillance camera on his phone: "Well, we filmed from the time the store closed last night until this morning. The refrigerator didn't malfunction, but the cake melted inexplicably."

Amuro Toru rested his hand on the table and said, "You are so concerned about something as trivial as the cake melting."

Conan said seriously: "After all, they have always wanted to taste the cake you made. We can't let their expectations become a bubble."

"For the sake of important people, you will get to the bottom of anything."

Kudo Yuki smiled and teased: "Conan, you haven't changed at all, you're still so kind-hearted."

Conan looked up at his sister and Amuro Toru, looking confused.

Kudo Yuki looked at the surveillance footage on her phone, "What were the results of last night's surveillance?"

Conan looked at the surveillance camera and said, "I didn't find anything suspicious at all."

Azusa Enomoto cut a piece of the cake and brought it to Conan, who was a little surprised: "The cake didn't melt."

"Yeah, there's nothing wrong with the cake this time."

"So cakes don't melt every day?"

"Basically, it happens twice in three days. If it keeps disappearing, we won't be able to do any business. And these are all recent events."

Amuro Toru watched a black car slowly passing by on the surveillance screen, and his expression became particularly serious. The appearance of that car made him very concerned. Kudo Yuki knocked on the table, "Toru, do you think that car is suspicious?"

Amuro Toru grabbed Kudo Yuki's hand and said in a serious tone, "He is temporarily under suspicion."

In the next few days, Conan spent almost all his spare time on checking the surveillance. He sat at his desk, staring at the computer screen, not missing any details.

The mysterious black car seemed to have become an unsolvable mystery in his heart. Every time he saw the car appear in the surveillance video and stay for about 12 seconds before passing by, Conan's brows would frown even more tightly.

Finally, Conan brought Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko from the Junior Detective Team to the Poirot Cafe. As soon as they entered the door, they couldn't wait to tell their elder sisters Kudo Yuki, Enomoto Azusa, and Amuro Toru about their discoveries.

Azusa Enomoto listened carefully and also told everyone the latest situation of the cake: "Our cake has indeed melted today." Her face was full of helplessness and confusion.

Conan touched his chin with one hand, narrowed his eyes, and fell into thought: "In other words, during the ten seconds when the surveillance camera could not capture the situation in the store, it is very likely that something strange happened."

When the three kids heard this, they began to imagine all kinds of possible situations. Yuan Tai held his phone and pointed to where the car appeared: "When the surveillance footage showed no signs of the store, was there a car passing by here?"

Several people quickly looked at the screen, and Conan thought: "Yes, then what? Go on and tell me."

Yuan Tai excitedly shared his discovery: "Every time I can't see what's going on inside the store, a car passes by, look." His eyes were wide open, as if he had discovered a shocking secret.

"But, on days when the cake didn't melt, something was passing through, so that alone doesn't mean anything."

Mitsuhiko clenched his fists and said, "When the cake melts, a car will pass by."

Ayumi nodded in agreement: "There is definitely a connection between the two."

Conan's eyes suddenly lit up: "We really don't have any other clues to refer to now. I'll ask the doctor to make the video clearer."

When Toru Amuro heard this, he stopped making food and said, "The doctor you are talking about, is that the one who made all kinds of interesting props for you?"

"Ah."

"Call him Dr. Agasa." Kudo Yuki rested her chin on her hand, leaned her elbow on the table, and reminded with a smile.

Amuro Toru smiled: "Is that so."

Conan didn't understand what was going on between his sister and Toru Amuro. He just wanted to solve the mystery of the melting cake as soon as possible, so he hurried to Dr. Agasa's house for help.

At Dr. Agasa's house, Huihara Ai was operating the computer, and Dr. Agasa said, "This is a taxi."

Huiyuan Ai checked the vehicle's number plate: "It's the same taxi these past few days."

Conan thought as he spoke: "When I couldn't see what was going on in the store, the same taxi appeared. So that's how it is. I know who the suspect is."

In order to verify his guess, Conan asked Mao Lilan to arrange a taxi. They walked towards the taxi, and Conan got in the car and observed carefully, and soon found the radio broadcast in the taxi. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile, and he was already fully confident in his heart.

Conan spoke confidently, his eyes sparkling with wisdom: "Although the badge is small, its communication range is actually very wide, so the radio waves are also very strong.

I'll talk to the doctor later and ask him to adjust the frequency of the drone. So, it wasn't someone who deliberately melted the cake, it was all caused by radio interference."

Azusa Enomoto looked at Yuki Kudo with a puzzled look, seeking confirmation: "Boss, is this true?"

Kudo Yuki nodded slightly, pointing at the electric kettle and the small refrigerator, "The electric kettle is usually placed here. When the electric kettle boils water, it will release a lot of steam.

Because of the close distance, the air intake at the back of the refrigerator absorbed a considerable amount of high-temperature steam. Because of this, during the ten seconds when the glass window fogged up, a high-temperature and high-humidity environment like a sauna was formed in the refrigerator, and the cake naturally melted, and was frozen again not long after. "

Azusa Enomoto picked up the electric kettle and thought: "So, I can't use it to boil water in the future."

Mao Lilan smiled and gave advice: "Just put the kettle somewhere else and it will be fine."

Ayumi happily murmured in the direction of Amuro Toru, her eyes full of anticipation: "Then can we have a piece of Amuro brother's cake again?"

Toru Amuro looked at everyone with a smile, and that smile was as warm as the sunshine: "Of course, don't worry. However, this cake is a little different from the previous ones." As he said that, Toru Amuro placed the exquisite new cake on the table.

Yuanta and Mitsuhiko looked at the cake and said in unison: "This cake looks like it has wilted."

Amuro Toru smiled, picked up a knife, cut the cake in the middle, and showed it to everyone: "I made it like this on purpose, but you can enjoy it without worry, there is a candy center inside. What do you think?"

The three little ones' eyes lit up, "It looks delicious."

Kudo Yuki suddenly realized: "Toru, is this the solution you mentioned before? It seems that the store will have another dessert."

Amuro Toru introduced to everyone, "Well, half-baked cake. It is very different from the cake that has been coated with cream in advance. This way, the cake and cream can be stored separately."

Mao Lilan smiled and interjected, "You don't have to worry about the cake melting."

"Yes, and then I just need to spread the cream and put the fruit on it before serving it to the guests."

Azusa Enomoto echoed, "Making cakes this way will definitely save a lot of time."

“And by doing so, we can differentiate the cakes from that store and make it a specialty here.”

Conan understood, "So, Amuro-san, you are not thinking about why the cake melted, but how to make a cake that is not afraid of melting."

"Of course, because this is my job."

Conan couldn't help but complain in his heart: "Mr. Amuro, you seem to be quite relaxed. Do you still have the energy to take care of your work as a public security police officer?"
