Ke Xue: Shinichi and I are childhood friends.

Chapter 1295 A crab cake without crab is like a wife cake without a wife.

Inspector Megure summoned the administrator and inquired about some details, such as the order in which the four people arrived.

However, the administrator was old and only remembered that the first person who came had a beard—that was the eldest brother who was murdered. He had no recollection of the other three.

"Um..." the administrator asked tentatively, "Can I leave now? There are so many people today, and I have a lot of things to do."

Takagi Wataru asked, "Is there anything going on today?"

The administrator explained, "Today seems to be a once-a-year day for posting pictures on social media."

Hattori Heiji paused for a moment, then suddenly realized something and grabbed the administrator's shoulder, shaking him violently: "Could you explain in more detail!"

Just as everyone was puzzled by Hattori Heiji's behavior, Iori Muga secretly called out to Ooka Momiji.

"Miss Momiji, I've discovered a serious problem. Please take a look at this." Iori Mujou said, handing her phone to Ooka Momiji.

Ooka Momiji glanced at the screen and exclaimed in surprise, "This is... a spot for taking photos of true love that can only be done once a year?!"

"And today, right here in this port? Wow, isn't that amazing!"

Iori Muga nodded: "According to the information I received, Mr. Hattori has been looking for an opportunity to confess his feelings in a scenic location."

He glanced at Hattori Heiji and said in a deep voice, "If Mr. Hattori's reasoning wins against the other two, he might confess to Ms. Kazuha before he even understands Ms. Momiji's charm."

Ooka Momiji's expression darkened slightly: "Oh dear, that won't do. We need to think of a solution."

The master and servant watched Hattori Heiji, who was gesturing wildly, with deep gazes. Clearly, he also knew about this popular tourist spot.

Ooka Momiji narrowed her eyes: "We have to find a way to make Kudo or Kamiya win. That way, we can not only stop Heiji from confessing, but also take the opportunity to make some demands of him..."

After glancing at Yuya, who was talking to Inspector Megure, Ooka Momiji hesitated for a moment before turning to Conan.

She walked over to Conan, squatted down, and asked, "Conan, did you properly pass the information to Kudo?"

Conan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes!" He carefully lowered the screen slightly to prevent Ooka Momiji from seeing that the phone was not actually in use.

Ooka Momiji suggested, "Why don't we discuss it with my family's Iori? He's quite smart too."

"No, no need... Shinichi-nii said so," Conan quickly refused. Just kidding, Hattori and Yuuya both solve cases independently. If he consulted Iori Muga, even if he solved the case, he would feel like he had lost.

Never rely on others!

At that moment, he suddenly noticed that Ran Mouri had been looking at him with anticipation in her eyes.

Conan swallowed hard. Ran seemed to be cheering him on. Okay, I can't lose!

Kazuha Toyama saw Momiji Ooka talking to Conan and assumed she had gone to help Kudo, so she looked at Heiji Hattori with encouraging eyes, about to cheer him on, when suddenly she was speechless—

Hattori Heiji was seen waving his fist with a lewd smile on his face, doing something that was unclear.

Kazuha Toyama was speechless. Heiji looked like that... was he going to lose?

After Yuya finished speaking with Inspector Megure, his phone suddenly vibrated.

He picked it up and glanced at it. It was a message from Shiho Miyano, with an attachment inside—"I just passed by a lingerie store and saw this lingerie set. It was really nice, so I bought it. I'll wear it for you tonight, how about it?"

Yuya quickly opened the attachment, which contained a photo of the clothes—a very sexy set of lingerie!

He quickly locked his phone, took a deep breath, touched his slightly hot nose, and looked at Hattori Heiji with a cold gaze—"Sorry, Hattori."

After learning that this was a once-a-year spot for true love to check in, Hattori Heiji was also filled with fighting spirit.

He needs to solve the case quickly, and then confess his love to Toyama Kazuha at the True Love Spot!

Thinking of this, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but glance at Conan and Yuya.

In an instant, three pairs of eyes filled with fighting spirit clashed together, sparks flying everywhere.

···

Inspector Megure's investigation has also stalled.

Without knowing the order in which the three brothers arrived, it would be impossible to identify the suspect.

Moreover, the reason why the victim suddenly lost contact has not yet been clarified.

However, the three brothers were aware of this.

My older brother lost his phone while on a business trip abroad, but found it at the airport when he returned. I explained this in an email I sent to them.

When his phone was not in use, his three brothers sent him a lot of messages, and he was startled to see so many unread messages.

However, it's unclear why my brother sent a message to call people here today.

Takagi Wataru asked, "Do the three of you frequently contact the victim?"

Kashiwagi nodded: "Yes, not only emails, we also often exchange gifts. My older brother gave me his favorite leather-strapped watch, saying he no longer needed it."

Guan Tianke received a leather jacket, an antique style that is hard to find.

"As a return gift, I sent him the chocolates and nuts that he loved to eat when he was a child, but they were all returned, which surprised me."

“Ah, I’ve encountered that before,” Jinya Saifu chimed in. “My older brother used to love eating crabs, so I sent him some canned crabs, but I don’t know why they were returned.”

"Crab?" Kashiwagi Yu was taken aback. "My older brother often sends me crab-flavored pancakes."

Jinya Saifu was very puzzled: "Then he shouldn't dislike crabs, right? Why would he come back?"

Hearing the conversation between the three, Yu's expression shifted—he returned the canned crab, but sent his younger brother crab-flavored pancakes, indicating that he didn't actually dislike crab...

The chocolates and nuts were also returned...

Yuya immediately showed an expression of understanding.

He glanced at Conan and Heiji Hattori, the latter of whom looked deep in thought, clearly having noticed something but not yet realizing it.

At that moment, Ooka Momiji suddenly appeared beside Yuya: "Kamiya-kun, have you already solved the truth?"

"Huh?" Yu looked at her with some surprise.

The latter smiled slightly: "Because Iori said your expression has changed a bit."

Yuya subconsciously looked at Iori Muga, but the latter still had that cold expression and exchanged a faint glance with Yuya.

"Ah, not really..." Yu hesitated for a moment, thinking that Hattori Heiji had confessed his feelings to him three times and failed, and that he was the only one among his acquaintances who was still single, which was a bit too pitiful.

So he laughed and said, "I just made a discovery: the victim might be allergic to crabs?"

"He clearly likes crab-flavored pancakes, but he returned the crab-flavored canned food."

Crab-flavored pancakes don't necessarily mean there's crab inside, just like wife cakes don't contain a wife.
