Chapter 567 Shopping List

There is a supermarket downstairs from the game hall.

Strictly speaking, except for this floor which is a game hall, the other floors of this building are basically supermarkets and shops.

Because this is a department store.

The game hall where everyone is now is located on one of the floors of the department store.

The Junior Detective Team once caught a gang of robbers in this building, thus saving the department store from a lot of losses.

At the time, this incident was reported in the news and caused heated discussions in Tokyo.

In this department store, the Junior Detective Team is very famous, and many store owners and staff know them.

Therefore, whenever the Junior Detective Team comes here to play, most of the shop owners will give preferential prices, which is equivalent to thanking the Junior Detective Team for their help.

It is said that this was the idea of ​​the owner of the building. When the Junior Detective Team was shopping here, if any store offered a discount, the losses caused would be compensated by the owner of the building.

The Junior Detective Team helped the owner of the department store catch the robber. Although the owner of the building did not give a direct reward, he arranged VIP treatment for every member of the Junior Detective Team.

It can be said that it is very sincere.

"Then let's go down and take a walk." After hearing Yuantai's words, Hiroki looked at Zeyu, and after getting the other party's nod of agreement, he said so.

So, after some time...

In the department store, several members of the Junior Detective Team were sitting on chairs, each of them holding an ice cream in their hands and eating quietly.

These ice creams are treated by Ze Yu.

By the way, this department store seems to be the property of the Hanai Group...

Ze Yu doesn't care about this.

Mitsuhiko looked at the people coming and going around him and said with a smile: "Let's play a game."

"What game?" Ayumi asked curiously.

"Menu reasoning game." Mitsuhiko said excitedly: "Everyone will leave a shopping list after buying things in the supermarket. After we get those shopping lists, we can infer from the content on them what they are going to make for dinner."

"Is that so? Let's give it a try!" Yuan Tai nodded.

Mitsuhiko quietly walked to the counter, took out a pile of shopping lists from the box, and then slipped back.

Anyway, after the supermarket closes, these shopping lists will be cleared away by the staff, so it doesn’t matter even if Mitsuhiko takes some of them.

After all, these shopping lists are useless things, just waste. Even if Mitsuhiko doesn't take them away, they will be thrown away as garbage by the staff.

Mitsuhiko distributed the shopping lists in his hand to everyone and said, "Let me go first!"

"Potatoes, onions, six eggs, a package of beef, flour..." He looked at the items on the shopping list and read softly.

"I know, it's cream pancake!" Ayumi said first, but the next moment, a hint of doubt flashed across her face.

"But as I remember, cream pie is usually made with wheat flour, right?"

"Maybe they still have wheat flour at home." Conan said casually.

"That's right." Ayumi responded, then looked down at her shopping list: "Look at mine..."

"Chicken drumsticks, green beans, ketchup..."

“Is it chicken rice?”

“And there’s also a green salad!”

Yuan Tai and Mitsuhiko interrupted. "Okay, it's my turn!" Yuan Tai picked up his shopping list and said in surprise, "There are so many of these shopping lists. It seems that person must have bought a lot of things."

As he spoke, he read out: "Potatoes, onions, beef, wheat flour, white sugar..."

"Betty knife, plastic mat, grater, handy gloves, storage box..."

"Finally, there's 'Crony'..."

"You mean, Kroni?" Conan was suddenly stunned and a little surprised.

"Conan, do you have any questions?" Ayumi looked at everyone curiously and asked, "What is Croni?"

"Don't look at me." Hiroki smiled bitterly: "I study information technology, I don't know much about biology."

Conan said nothing, snatched the shopping list from Yuanta's hand, and said as he looked at it, "Kroni, that is a colorless or white crystal. Normal people use it to disinfect and sterilize the skin."

"The problem is, it has a different use..." At this point, Conan's expression gradually became solemn.

"What is it used for?" Ayumi asked.

"Kroni has a very strong toxicity." Haibara Ai said silently.

"What? Is this poison?" Upon hearing this, Mitsuhiko frowned.

"No, but it can be used to drive away moles." Conan said: "Mix Croni with potatoes, onions, beef, wheat flour and other things, and you can make meatballs that moles love to eat."

"So did this person buy these things to drive away moles?" Yuantai asked.

"Impossible." Huihara Ai said, "Maybe you can see rats in Tokyo."

"As for the mole, it is impossible for it to appear."

"That's true." Mitsuhiko nodded.

"In that case, the person who bought Croni must have used it to disinfect his skin." Ayumi, who had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter, smiled and said, "As for potatoes and the like, they can be made into dishes."

"How can it be that simple?" Conan looked at the shopping list in his hand, still frowning: "It feels weird no matter how I think about it..."

"Not surprising." Ze Yu said calmly, "I think that person bought these things to make meatballs."

"As for who these meatballs are for, in Tokyo, besides moles, there are plenty of humans, and even animals."

"Is that so?" Conan's eyes flashed with worry and anxiety, and he whispered, "That's bad."

"Let's go stop him!" Yuan Tai stared and said loudly: "No matter what that person wants to do, we can't turn a blind eye!"

"Genta is right!" Ayumi and Mitsuhiko both agreed.

"I also think that this matter must be handled with caution." Hiroki said.

"I agree." Even Haibara Ai said.

In fact, apart from the most important people around her, Haibara Ai hardly cares about insignificant passers-by.

No matter what that person buys Kronis for, it’s actually none of Haibara Ai’s business.

She doesn't care whether to take action or not.

But now, most of the friends want to take action, and Haibara Ai can't possibly spoil their fun, so naturally she chooses to agree.

"Xiao Yu, let's take action!" Conan looked at Ze Yu and said firmly.

"Okay, let's act together." Ze Yu nodded gently, and then encouraged: "For justice."
