Gong Yi clenched his teeth, holding back the tears.Xingbo asked him why he wanted to peek at this book. "Some say anyone can do it." "Anyone can do it? What's the matter?" "At school yesterday, someone said that as long as you know how to make it, anyone can make delicious food." "Who said this?" "friend." "So, you want to do it?" Gong nodded. "where?" "friend's house." "What are you going to do?" "Rice with diced beef." Xingbo smacked his lips and sighed: "The idea is so naive."

But immediately, he stood up and said to Gong Yi, "Come here." Gongyi followed into the kitchen and took the kitchen knife handed over by his father. "Cut vegetables." Xingbo said. "I'll teach you. I'll teach you how to cook rice with diced beef from scratch. Anyone can do it. You'll have to think about it when the time comes." Xingbo temporarily closed the shop, and the surprised Tazi tried to dissuade him, but he turned a deaf ear. Gongyi wanted to run away, he felt that he was really going to be beaten this time. Simbo cooks from the most basic soup.Gong was stunned by the complexity of the steps, the nuances of the heat and the intensity of the taste.It turns out that Dad cooks like this carefully every day. Thinking of this, Koichi's thoughts drifted away.

Obviously it started in the morning, and by the time it was finished, night had already fallen."Actually, it should have taken more time," Xingbo said. "Try it," Xingbo said while putting the freshly baked diced beef rice in front of Gongyi. Gongyi ate it with a spoon, and as expected, it was still the same rice with diced beef as usual. "tasty." "How about it, do you still think anyone can do it?" Xingbo asked. Gong Yi shook his head. "I can't make it. Even if you know how to cook such a delicious diced beef rice bowl, no one can make it except Dad."

Hearing this sentence, Xingbo nodded in satisfaction, and said with a smile: "It's right to think so, you can do it too." "real?" "Really, I don't lie to you." Xingbo said seriously, "Don't make it at a friend's house, here! After cooking, give it to others to eat, and then collect money. Our family's diced beef rice is not made just to fill the stomach Yes." After saying that, he smiled again. Our recommended beef diced rice bowl has a century-old history. Please enjoy it. Looking at the menu, all kinds of memories appeared in Koichi's mind, all of which were so happy that he couldn't help but giggle.

But all the memories were shattered the moment the eyes pulled away from the menu.The place where the guests enjoyed Shihiro's food was now occupied by the police with serious faces. "Is it Yuming Gongichi?" Gong Yi followed the direction of the voice, raised his head, and saw two tall men standing in front of him. The two men are detectives.No one sat down without introducing themselves.A man with short white hair sat down in front of Koichi, and a tall young man sat down beside him. After a while, another man walked in, and he pulled the chair from the adjacent table and sat down.Gongyi knew this person, because he had been to the store several times, and he remembered that he also visited recently.He seems to be quite familiar with Xingbo, and they often go around the cashier and chat about golf together.However, I didn't know until tonight that he turned out to be a criminal policeman.While waiting in front of the store, he was the first to arrive.It was also at that time that I knew his name was Bai Yuan.

"Can I take notes?" the white-haired man asked. Gongyi looked at Wang Baiyuan, and he had already told him the general situation. "If it doesn't work today, what about tomorrow?" Bai Yuan asked cautiously. Gong Yi shook his head slightly: "It doesn't matter." In fact, he really wanted to go back to his brother and sister immediately.But he was worried that he would not be able to arrest the prisoner without his own testimony, so he couldn't let him escape. "Tell us what happened tonight in as much detail as possible." The white-haired man said.

"Hmm... Where should I start?" Gongyi's voice was a little hoarse, and he asked with all his strength, even being frightened by himself, only then did he realize that his body was trembling uncontrollably. Even after asking like this, my mind was still in a mess and I couldn't think well.Koichi looked at Kashiwahara again. "How about starting there? Just sneak out of the house and start." Ah, Gong nodded and turned his gaze back to the white-haired man. "Around twelve o'clock, my brother and I slipped out the window to watch the Perseid meteor shower."

"Well, of course, this matter is hidden from my parents." Hmm, Gong nodded. "Where were your parents when you sneaked out of the house?" "Speak here." "How's your expression?" "Nothing special, just the same as usual." Last night, before sneaking out of the house, Gong Yi took a sneak peek at the situation on the next floor, where his parents were talking in the shop.The two whispered, not knowing what they were talking about.Probably talking about business matters, Gong thought about it.He noticed that whenever such topics were discussed, parents were careful not to let their children overhear.

"What time will Meteor return home?" "I didn't see it." "Ok?" "The weather is not good, so I went home without seeing the shooting star." "Ah, so, what time will you be back?" "It's two o'clock. I'm not sure. I didn't look at the clock until a long time later." "It doesn't matter. When I slipped out, I went out through the window. Why did I come in through this door when I came back?" "Because my sister is here too. My brother and I would have slipped in through the window, so there's no way we can take my sister with me. Besides, my sister fell asleep on the way."

"You have the key?" "Ok." "Have you always carried it with you?" "Keep it with your wallet." Even this is also asked, I don't know what effect these can play.Gong answered one by one while thinking. "Next, tell me about the situation when you walked into the store." The white-haired man asked in a slightly cautious tone. "The lights in the store were all off, and I thought my parents were probably asleep. So I opened the door and walked in. At this time, I found that the door was slightly open and the light inside was on."

Gong Yi turned his head to look in the direction of the cash register, staring at the door there. "Then I thought my parents were already up, so I had no choice but to prepare to be scolded before I opened the door, because I couldn't go upstairs without passing through that room..." When you open the door, you can see a space about three tatami mats, where the dishes are prepared in advance.Take off your shoes on the right and enter the house.The stairs are facing the entrance, and on the left is the living room and parents' bedroom.Standing in the porch, once you open the door inside, you can see a passage leading to the depths. When Gong Yi peeked around, he found the sliding door of his parents’ room was ajar. He thought it was too bad, and his parents would definitely close the door when they were sleeping. They probably didn’t notice that they had sneaked out of the house and waited to come back to reprimand them. With Shizuna behind his back, Koichi sneaked a sneak peek into the room, and then— "I saw feet." He narrated to the detectives. "Foot?" The white-haired man asked thoughtfully. "Mom's feet. Wearing socks. I thought how could I fall asleep like this, so I explored the situation in the room, and it turned out..." Not knowing how to express the next situation, Gong was at a loss for words. The first thing he saw was a white cloth stained with blood, but for a moment he mistook it for the flag of the sun.The white cloth was wrapped around Tazi's upper body, Gongyi couldn't see her face clearly. The moment he realized that it was not a flag but a blood-stained apron, the figure of his father in the kitchen who fell inside also came into view.Xingbo was lying face down, the T-shirt on his back was covered in blood. Neither father nor mother lay motionless.Gong Yi couldn't move anymore, his body seemed to be frozen and solidified. What released his tightly bound body was the sound from behind, which was the almost indistinguishable creaking sound of opening and closing the shop door.Gongyi, who has been accustomed to this voice since he was a child, has a reaction. He backed up little by little with Jing Nai on his back, put on his shoes, and went back to the shop, which happened to be where Taifu was standing. Koichi seemed to say something to his younger brother.The specific content, Gongyi has been unable to remember clearly.However, he remembered that his words made Taifu pale and his body began to tremble. "Because it was too unexpected, everything became blurred." Gongyi lowered his head and said silently, "I took my brother and sister to the second floor, then called 110 with the phone in the store, and then I went to the store wait ahead." The white-haired man was silent.Gong Yi, who drooped his head, couldn't understand his expression. "Let's stop here tonight." Bai Yuan said, "Calm down a little bit, maybe you will think of something." "Yes." The white-haired man nodded in agreement, "Where are the children resting tonight?" "I don't know yet. According to the investigation, there seems to be no relatives nearby. Anyway, I have already contacted Koichi's head teacher." Bai Yuan replied. "Then, please let me know after you decide. ——Kong Yi-kun." The white-haired man called him by his name.Gong Yi raised his head and saw that he had a sorry expression on his face. "I'm sorry to trouble you. However, the uncles also want to catch the prisoner as soon as possible." Koichi nodded silently. The two detectives got up and left, and Bai Yuan moved to the vacant seat. "Thirsty?" Gong shook his head. "uncle……" "What's wrong?" "Can I go back to my brother and the others?" Bai Yuan was a little at a loss. "Ah, what should I do. In fact, we will also check the second floor later. So, instead, we must let my brother and the others vacate the room." Gong Yi looked at Bai Yuan. "Can't stay there? We won't cause trouble." "Sorry, that's not what I meant. It's just that we want to miss as little detail as possible. We will prepare the room for tonight." "Jing...my sister is probably still sleeping, that guy is very good at sleeping." "It's a pity if you wake up." "It doesn't matter what you usually say, but I just want her to sleep well tonight. Because that guy doesn't know anything yet, Tiantian is asleep, at least I want her to sleep carefree tonight." While talking, Koichi suddenly felt like a fire was burning in his chest, and Jingna's sleeping expression appeared in his mind, thinking that he had to tell her about the murder of his parents, his heart began to struggle violently.Not knowing what to do, Gong Yi felt hopeless. All the things came to my heart and turned into tears streaming down my cheeks.Even when Koichi didn't shed tears when he saw his parents' dead bodies, why can't he stop crying now?He grabbed the napkin next to him and covered his face, finally couldn't hold back, and began to howl loudly. At the Yokosuka Police Station, it was past eight o'clock in the morning when the first search meeting was held.The investigators who rushed to the scene hardly slept all night.Hagi Village is one of them.He and Yamabe went back and forth to investigate around "Ariake", but found nothing.Either way, it's quite a struggle just to find people who wake up.Although I went to convenience stores, ramen stands, etc. to inquire, I still did not collect useful information. The same goes for the other investigators.Didn't get much information from the mobile search team.Even the head of the county headquarters who held the meeting showed an anxious expression on his face.
