Xinteng was walking on the road, and sneezed a lot, and even his nose flowed down.He immediately wiped off his nose with a handkerchief, and put it back in his trousers pocket. "The weather is not cold today. Could it be that I have a cold? Or someone is speaking ill of me. It must be that posturing playboy speaking ill of me." Thinking of Yoshihiko Honma's handsome face, Shinto couldn't help gnashing his teeth.However, Honma had a blind date with Takeuchi Shinobi, whom Shindo had a crush on. Since then, he has approached Shinobi with an attitude of fearing that the world will not know.Although the blind date did not complement each other, Honma did not give up.

Honma was waiting for her at the gate of Dalu Elementary School where Anin was teaching. Today is the graduation ceremony, and school will be over after noon. He intends to invite Ah Ren to the Christmas party held at his house tonight, and he also said that he has prepared good wine, which can be served with roast turkey. Ah Ren was a little hesitant at first, but she has no resistance to food at all, so she was actually a little moved. "However, we just heard it from the side. We can only say that the uncle is too unlucky. In other words, Mr. Criminal Police, you are really lucky." ──At noon, Tanaka Teppei suddenly called Shinto, and on the phone Zhong told him so.Tieping is a student in Aren's class, and he will tell him about Aren's news from time to time.

"Harada and I walked up to the teacher and said, we also want to go. The teacher said, let's go together. Anyway, there are more people and it's more lively." While listening to the phone, Xinteng couldn't help laughing. "What kind of expression does that guy from Honma show?" "He said, 'Yeah, that's a good idea.' He was on the verge of tears, but he managed to force a smile." "Wahhahaha, he deserves it, who told him to sneak away." "And, I gave him a fatal blow." "Fatal blow?" "That's right, I told the teacher, since the opportunity is so rare, it's more fun to find that police uncle."

"Oh? What happened?" He couldn't help but strain his hand holding the phone. "The teacher thought about it for a while and said: 'If Mr. Honma has no objections, it would be more fun to ask him.' Harada and I kept asking him: 'Do you have any objections? Are you okay?' He frowned, and finally had no choice but to do nothing. agreed." "Amazing!" Shinto couldn't help but screamed. "Good job! Thank you, okay, then I'll finish my work early today and go there." "We're waiting for you. By the way, I want a telescope."

"..." "You don't have to buy the expensive ones, just a small binoculars six times the size. I want to make it clear that you don't have to worry about getting me anything for Christmas. Ah, wait a minute... um, well, I asked him... ...Harada said he wanted Madonna's CD." "Madan..." "He said, as long as it's Madonna's, any CD is fine. We're waiting for you." After Tieping finished speaking, he hung up the phone. ──Don't underestimate the children of today.They talked wildly and begged for favors for a long time, but in the end they had another purpose.

Holding the paper bag in one hand and the other in his coat pocket, Shindo walked towards Honma's apartment.In the paper bag, of course, is the telescope and Madonna's CD.Moreover, he also bought a gold necklace in the shop where he bought the telescope, which was a gift for Aren. ──The problem is that that idiot Honma doesn't know what gift to give.That guy is very shrewd and cunning, it is impossible not to prepare a gift. As he was thinking about these things, he sneezed another loud sneeze. "What a big sneeze, do you have a cold?" Shindo heard a familiar voice, and when he looked back, Aren was smiling at him.

"Ah, Takeuchi-sensei, are you going now too?" Shinto looked at his watch.The originally agreed time has long passed. "I've already been to the Honma's, and I just came out again. I found out that there was no Christmas cake, so I bought one impromptu." Aren held up the square box in his hand, the box was wrapped in white and pink striped wrapping paper, and a red ribbon was tied on it. "Oh, it turned out to be a cake, that's great." "I went to the store where I usually buy cakes. I didn't expect that Christmas cakes had to be reserved. Fortunately, someone canceled it temporarily, so I bought it back."

"It's so lucky, it shows that you usually have accumulated virtue." "I think so." "..." As they walked and chatted, a tall man walked towards them.Dressed in a Santa Claus suit, he held a toy store billboard and balloons, which he handed out to passing children.
Seeing Shindo appearing behind Ah Nin, Honma frowned. "You're really here." "From your tone, it seems that I can't come. Maybe I think too much?" "That's not what I mean, I'm just worried that you'll be fine at work?" "Fortunately, the world is peaceful."

"What a pity." "You seem disappointed." "No, I'm disappointed for you. Mr. Urushizaki called just now, saying that there was a murder. Please contact him immediately." "..." "It's true." When the two of them were bickering, Tanaka Teppei and Harada Ikuo ran out from inside.They are eating a turkey leg. "Did you get a telescope?" Tieping asked leisurely, and Xinteng patted his head. "Okay, then I'll contact him later, but at least let's have a toast first." "It's not good to drink now," Honma said, "I'm going to work soon."

When Shindo was about to get angry, Anin said: "Then let's cut the cake first. After eating the cake, you will have the energy to handle the case." "I agree!" Tieping said, and Harada clapped his hands too. "Takeuchi-sensei is really understanding, so let's do this." Xinteng also clapped his hands and walked into the house.Honma reluctantly nodded in agreement. When Aren opened the box, a whipped cream cake appeared, surrounded by a circle of strawberries, as well as Santa Claus and candles from the bungalow.Reads "Merry Christmas" in chocolate at center.Teppei and Harada cheered.

Ah Ren held the knife, tilted his head and said: "Round cakes are hard to cut into fifths...Tanaka." "Why?" When Tie Ping asked back, his eyes were still on the cake. "You first answer when you divide the circle into six equal parts, what is the angle of each sector?" "Why? Why are you doing math now?" "You have to learn anytime and anywhere in life, and answer quickly." "It's winter vacation tomorrow," Tieping pouted. "Uh, the total is three hundred and sixty degrees. If it is divided into six equal parts... it is sixty degrees." "Correct. Harada, it's your turn." "I skip." "You can't skip it. If you divide it into six equal parts, it means sixty degrees. What about fifth equal parts?" "Fifty degrees." "You stupid." Shinobu hit Harada on the head with his left hand. "The quintile is seventy-two degrees, you can remember it clearly for me. But the quintile is too difficult, let's just divide it into the sixth." "Who will eat the extra piece?" Tieping asked. "Of course it is the first to win first, life is a battlefield where the weak prey on the strong." That extra cake is definitely mine.When Shinobi confidently started cutting the cake, he heard a metallic sound. "Huh?" Ren pulled out the knife. "There seems to be something inside." "What a strange sound." As Honma said, he opened the cake along the place where the knife cut it just now, and found something that looked like a piece of metal inside. "Ah yo, why is there such a thing inside?" Honma took out a small knife from inside the cake. "I see," Tie Ping said loudly, "So this cake comes with a knife, and some people may not have a knife at home." "How could there be such an inexplicable cake? Show me." Shindo took the knife from Honma.Aren also came over and looked at the knife in his hand.The blade is attached to a plastic handle, which looks like a fruit knife. "what!" Ah Ren cried out, stepped back and pointed at the knife and said: "Blood, blood, blood. There's blood on the knife." "what?" Instead, the two children looked up at the knife in Xinteng's hand. Shinto looked at the knife.The blade was indeed stained with something crimson. "This...it seems not simple." While he was muttering softly, the phone in the corner of the room rang.Everyone jumped up. Ben picked up the phone and handed it to Shindo. "Urushizaki-san is calling." "Oh, thanks." As soon as Shindo put the phone to his ear, he heard Urushizaki's voice. "What are you dawdling about? There's a homicide. I'm at the Ikuno Police Station. Come here right away." "Oh... homicide?" Shinto replied absent-mindedly.He still hasn't quite shaken the shock of a knife emerging from the cake. "What are you in a daze for? It's a homicide. Although it was disguised as suicide, the murderer's knife couldn't be found." "The knife... is it a fruit knife?" Shindo looked at the knife in his hand and asked. "It should be, according to the supervisor, it should be a fruit knife... I will tell you slowly when you come." "Uh, Brother Qi." "What? I'm busy." "No, that...there is a knife here." "I know you have a knife there, so what?" "It's just... when cutting the cake, a knife ran out." "Cake? Of course you need a knife to cut the cake, so what?" "No, there's a knife in the cake. It's true, although it doesn't sound like it." "What? I don't understand, cut the cake with a knife, and there is a knife in the cake..." "Come out." "..." Urushizaki fell silent, and Shinto didn't speak anymore.After a while, Urushizaki heard "Hi". "Did you just say cake?" Urushizaki's voice was very low, completely different from before, and his tone became very cautious. "Yes indeed." "..." There was another silence.Xinteng pressed the phone to his ear, and the next moment there was a loud cry, which almost shattered his eardrum. "I see, I'll go over right away. Listen, don't move, don't move the cake and the knife. As long as you dare to move a finger, I won't let you go."
