Yokohama Cuisine Event Book

"Great. With Lucy here, you don't have to worry about troublesome people coming to your door in the future."

On this day, the members of the detective agency who finished their work were spending time in the whirlpool cafe downstairs.

But not all of them—Kenji accompanied Ranpo, and Yosano went to the city police headquarters to assist in the judicial autopsy, while Kunikida Doppo, who was full of enthusiasm for work after the Sansha War, still stuck to his post.

Therefore, in the comfortable atmosphere surrounded by the aroma of coffee, there are only six Tanizaki brothers and sisters, Atsushi and Kyoka, Amcha and Dazai.

Vortex's new clerk, former bandmate Lucy Montgomery, served them some good drinks.

Seeing the girl's agile movements, Gan Cha, the consultant and waiter Gan Cha, who is not doing his job properly but is elusive, holds black tea and says with a smile.

A few days ago, due to the harassment of the outside criminal organization "Zarpak", the coffee shop suffered a catastrophe, and the owner was also seriously injured.

However, under the intervention of the members of the detective agency, everything returned to calm.

Still a little unaccustomed to being treated kindly by former enemies, Lucy responded awkwardly, but still replied seriously:

"I will work hard - and I will learn how the boss makes coffee as soon as possible!"

The latter sentence was yelled out against Jing Hua who criticized her poor craftsmanship.

——This difficulty is a bit high.

It doesn't hurt the girl's bold ambitions, everyone thought secretly in their hearts.

The wind chime on the door jingled, and two guests came in.

The tall red-haired woman was still as cheerful as she was two years ago. As soon as she entered the door, she jumped over cheerfully and embraced the girl sitting at the table from behind the seat.

"Long time no see, Gancha!"

Rubbing his chin affectionately against the top of the girl's hair, Kobayashi Gendan's voice was particularly enthusiastic.

"Senior Longdan—ah, Senior Si is here too."

The girl smiled and patted her hand, raised her eyes to look at the silver-white short-haired young man who took a step back and showed a somewhat embarrassed smile behind him.

There is a reason why the two, who have been active overseas after graduation, returned to Japan and came to Yokohama.

One is because Yuanyue's residential training for first-year freshmen is about to begin, and the two agreed to attend as examiners—Gancha, as the first seat with a more detached status than all the previous seniors, was also invited.

The second reason was that Gan Cha received a call from Long Dan one night two days ago.

"...After I finished my training, I helped Ji's Pop-Up restaurant (a restaurant opened for a limited time) in France for a year, and I plan to return to Japan to open my own restaurant."

Gendan said in his usual hearty tone, "I have been curious about you Yokohama for a long time! Do me a favor and find a suitable address for me to open a shop."

"—Take it as my entrustment to you, detective!"

Of course, Gancha accepted this commission without hesitation.

They made an appointment to meet at the whirlpool today, and after viewing the storefront, they set off together for the "Totsuki Palace" under the management of Dojima Gin, where the accommodation and training were held.

"Gentian has helped me for a year, so in exchange, I will work for her for a year."

Si Yingshi still smiled embarrassedly as before.

But after experiencing the failure of reform and the tempering of practice, the once overly introverted teenager also showed a bit of sophistication and openness.

——This is really good news for the Yokohama food scene.

Gan Cha's eyes lit up.

"The company is still my shareholder."

The gentian hung on the girl's shoulders, greeted a table of strange members of the detective agency without seeing anything, and explained with a smile,

"Because my money is spent on buying rare ingredients everywhere."

"This time, if possible, I would like to directly buy the future storefront. Not only did I get the company's sponsorship, but I also mortgaged my apartment with the bank. The mortgage procedures are extremely troublesome, so I—"

"So you just leave it all to me."

The former No. [-] seat, who had been overwhelmed by the documents and procedures in other people's share since he was in school, glanced enviously at the current No. [-] seat who only had to deal with necessary matters, and couldn't help sighing.

Atsushi glanced at him sympathetically, then with a condemning look, looked at Dazai who pushed the report to him and was humming happily, and made room for the young man beside him.

After everyone talked for a while, the owner's wife, who was wearing a headscarf, personally delivered coffee to the two new guests, and placed a cardboard box in front of the girl.

"Gancha, there is your package."

She touched the girl's long hair and said with a smile.

Dun was a little surprised to see the imprint on the package.

"There are signs of the special passage for the military and police on it."

He opened his eyes wide and guessed, "What is it? Could it be the confidential documents and information sent over there?"

"..."

Dazai raised his eyebrows, revealing an inexplicable smile.

Looking at the familiar handwriting on it, the girl pursed her lips, as if she wanted to laugh, but sighed in annoyance, and opened the package with her hands.

What was displayed in front of everyone was an indescribable woodcarving of a wolf wrapped in a transparent evidence bag.

The workmanship of the statue is very rough, and there are traces of burrs and burrs at the end, but whether it is the dilated blood vessels on the neck or the round animal pupils on the face, they are all extremely lifelike.

It was as if the hair blown by the strong wind was blowing back when running wildly, the sharp teeth sticking out of the bloody mouth looked extremely sharp, and the thin and sunken wolf face revealed the horror of despair and madness.

The Nishi Coward of the Detective Agency, Nakajima Atsushi, the Higashi Coward, Tanizaki Junichiro, and the Coward of Totsuki senior, Shi Eiji, all simultaneously moaned and backed away in shock.

"What is this? A cursed item?" Si Yingshi asked stammeringly.

"That said, it's pretty similar."

Dazai stroked his chin and said with great interest.

But other than that, the body part of the wood carving is a bit funny.

The trousers on the lower body were still carved, tattered and very realistic; but the upper body, which should have been naked|naked, was tightly put on the cloth top, which was buttoned up to the neck in a regular manner.

"...and it's stuck together."

The girl flicked the hem of her clothes with a very speechless expression.

——Probably some idiot thought it was indecent, so let the creator add a piece of clothing to it.

She stared at the wild wood carving in front of her for a while, and finally closed her eyes due to the visual and mental shock.

"Really." The girl complained, "Mr. Iron Chang, what kind of idiot is it?"

But even so, she still puffed her face, picked up the wooden carving and stood up:

"I'll go to the third floor."

Kobayashi Rindou blinked.

"I heard that there is a special cooking room for you? I want to see it!"

"Wait, wait a minute, I too—"

Si Yingshi hastily got up and followed.

Seeing that the three seats were vacant in just a moment, and thinking about the smiling eyes of the girl before she left, she felt thoughtful.

"Even if it's such a gift, Ms. Gancha plans to put it away," he said.

"Because compared with the previous gift, this is nothing."

Naomi smiled, "For example——"

The three people upstairs were also talking about this topic at the moment.

"Little ant?"

Gentian's face was full of excitement.

——For a cook of rare ingredients like her, ants are a very good thing.

It can add a natural refreshing sour taste to the dishes, but it does not overwhelm the taste of other seasonings like citrus fruits.

"It's already been released! I won't bring it to you for cooking."

Gan Cha looked around the simple and modern cooking room, and then looked at the strange wood carving in his hand with a headache.

She couldn't find a suitable place, so she had to place it casually on the bookshelf next to her cooking notes.

Hearing Rindou's question, she pouted and replied like this.

Once before, she expressed a little curiosity about that person's hobbies, and received a fully equipped ant breeding box from him the next day.

Mr. Tiechang also told her very seriously that ants are very interesting and he can observe them for eight hours.

Sometimes she really couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with the hound's body strengthening process.

For example, someone sacrificed his sense of taste and brain in exchange for the strongest physique of a hound or something.

In the end, of course, he called him angrily, and asked him to let the ants go, or to observe for another eight hours, as long as he didn't embarrass her.

When the young man came to look for her, he brought the first morning cherry blossom he saw during his routine morning inspection.

The movement in the girl's hands paused, she sighed, and then smiled softly.

Downstairs, Dun teased and secretly gossiped:

"So, is that Mr. Military Police Miss Gancha's lover?"

"—No, not to that extent!"

Tanizaki Junichiro stepped on him in a panic.Glancing at Dazai who was talking to the shopkeeper at the other end, he whispered,

"Besides, this is a taboo topic in the detective agency..." Didn't you see that even the packages were sent to the whirlpool!

"Especially Mr. Ranpo—he always thinks that Mr. Gancha is going to take Miss Gancha away, so he doesn't like that person very much."

"...Is it a child who snatches a toy..."

Don smiled awkwardly.

——Although I don't have much respect for my seniors, I always feel that this is a very appropriate description.

Jinghua was holding an ice cream waffle and listening to their conversation quietly with her big blue eyes open.

The silver-haired boy couldn't help thinking of Mr. Tianshan who fell in love with Akutagawa Gin at first sight two days ago.

There is the kind of enthusiasm that goes against the nature and position, longing to meet, but there is also a faint feeling like a girl, even if it is thousands of miles apart——

"Miss Gancha, you are actually very happy."

Dun said softly.

On the other side, Dazai in front of the bar lowered his eyelashes and chuckled lightly.

The gentleman from the military police really doesn't understand girls' minds.

There is no particular reason for giving those random gifts—it's just that no matter where she is, even when she is doing things that have nothing to do with her, she will suddenly think of her.

And what the girl cherishes the most is this kind of heart.

but--

"That's all, who can't do it?"

The black-haired young man fiddled with the handle of the coffee cup and muttered.

——It's just that the simple-minded guy did it first when others were thinking.

The owner who was chatting with him about the new coffee looked over suspiciously.

"Dazai-san, what did you just say?"

"No."

Dazai returned a friendly smile.
