The famous criminal in the world of Conan

Chapter 12: Solving a case is solving a problem?

There were only Sato Miwako and Hakuba Matsu in the ramen restaurant at this time, so it seemed very deserted.

Looking at the empty seat next to her, Sato Miwako asked, "Didn't Lawyer Ohashi come today?"

A girl in an apron came out of the kitchen with two bowls of ramen in her hands. She walked towards Sato Miwako and answered.

"Dad had a case today and had to work overtime, so he didn't come to eat noodles."

She is the daughter of lawyer Ohashi. She has been eating noodles in the store since she was a child, and when she grew up, she volunteered to work as a helper.

She put two bowls of noodles on the table.

"Sister Meiwako, please enjoy your meal."

"Thank you, Ayano." Sato Miwako responded with a smile.

"Inspector Hakuba, come and try it, it's really delicious!" Sato Miwako invited warmly.

"Hmm" Bai Masong looked at the Yama Daiwang Ramen in front of him.

This bowl of ramen looks very tempting, and it has all the presentation that ramen should have. The most special thing is that it is topped with a pile of dried bamboo shoots. The thick bamboo shoots completely cover the ramen, leaving no space at all.

"Dried bamboo shoots, Yama?" Baimasong seemed to be thinking about something.

"Ha, that's right, the name of Yanma Daioh Ramen is taken from the homonym of dried bamboo shoots." Sato Miwako said with a smile.

"This is a bad joke from Mr. Ogura."

Bai Masong nodded in understanding.

He picked up the chopsticks, picked up a bamboo shoot, and swallowed it in one gulp along with the noodle soup.

When eating ramen in the island country, the soup is the main point and the noodles are just a side dish. After living here for decades, Bai Masong has become accustomed to eating it this way.

"Hmm?" Bai Ma Song opened his eyes wide after taking the first bite.

The dried bamboo shoots were very crispy and the soup base was full of flavor. Baimasong took another bite of the noodles and found that the noodles were different from those of other restaurants. They were not bland. On the contrary, they were very fragrant. However, while the noodles were flavorful, the soup base was not salty, which was amazing.

One bite, two bites, Baimasong ate faster and faster, completely different from his usual cold appearance.

Seeing his "embarrassed" look, Sato Miwako also laughed.

She also quickly picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

When Japanese people eat noodles, there is a saying that the louder the sound of eating, the tastier the noodles will taste. So at this small ramen shop, only the sound of two people wolfing down their food could be heard.

"I'm full and feel so comfortable!" said Miwako Sato contentedly.

"Well, it's really good." Bai Masong took out a handkerchief, wiped his mouth, and said lightly.

"Inspector Hakuba, are you used to eating at a small noodle shop like this?" asked Miwako Sato, looking at the shabby decorations around her.

"Sure." Bai Masong said. There was nothing he couldn't get used to. He wasn't a spoiled person. Although he was born into a noble family in this life, in his previous life, as a commoner, what kind of food stalls had he not been to? There was no such thing as something he couldn't get used to.

"Detective Sato, if you have any questions, you can tell me now," Bai Masong said.

"Ah, this is actually, I want to ask you, Inspector Hakuba, how to solve the case!" Sato Miwako clasped her hands together and asked courageously.

She also knew that Bai Masong, who came from a police family, might have inherited these crime-solving skills from a single family, but she still wanted to ask.

Because she really, really wants to be a good police officer!

The cases in the past few days really frustrated her. She felt that she was full of passion, but she always rushed into the traps set by the suspects.

This was the case with the body that disappeared a few days ago, and it’s the same with the case that happened today!

Even, even her father, she couldn't do anything...

In the past, she would have considered the reasoning ability of those detectives to be a talent, but now there was an excellent police officer very close to her, and she couldn't help but ask for advice.

Bai Masong put down the handkerchief he had used to wipe his mouth and looked at Sato Miwako in front of him.

Thinking of Sato Miwako's father who died in a car accident, he seemed to understand that something was wrong with her today.

She was stimulated by today's car accident and thought of her father who died in a car accident. In addition, she was powerless to do anything about these two cases, which made her very distressed, so she came to ask him for advice.

"No, can't I?" Sato Miwako felt a little scared when she was looked at by Bai Masong. She shrank her body and asked in a low voice.

"Sure." Bai Masong said. There was nothing he couldn't teach. He was just thinking about Officer Sato's mental state.

Come to think of it, this was the first time he had seen Sato Miwako looking so weak in all these days.

"Ha, thank you so much, Inspector Hakuba!" Sato Miwako smiled happily, clasped her hands together, and bowed.

"Actually, I don't have any reasoning skills. Reasoning ability requires talent and is acquired through daily accumulation." Bai Masong said lightly.

Miwako Sato's face turned pale all of a sudden. Could it be that she really couldn't become a good police officer because of her average talent?

"But," Bai Masong changed the subject, "I do have some experience and skills in solving cases."

Sato Miwako's face turned from gloomy to bright.

"Solving a case is actually just like solving a problem. Whether it is us or those famous detectives, we are all problem solvers," said Bai Masong.

This is actually true. He and Conan are actually top-notch students. They can basically solve the questions when they see them. Plus, they keep doing questions day after day, and they become good at it over time.

As for Gin, he is a top-level question setter. He may not have written many questions, but he has set a lot of questions. When he sees the question, he naturally knows what the question setter is thinking, and solving the question is of course no problem.

"As long as it's a question, there will be an answer." Bai Masong continued, "For example, the ones we encountered are basically divided into two types: multiple-choice questions and proof questions."

"Multiple-choice questions and proof questions?" asked Miwako Sato puzzled.

"Let's start with the multiple-choice questions. The multiple-choice questions are that the murderer is unknown, but there are multiple suspects to choose from, usually three. An example is the retrograde case we encountered today."

"At this point, we can treat multiple-choice questions the same way we do in exams - directly input the options and try out the answers."

"For example, in today's case, the Ministry of Transportation asked us to identify three suspects. In fact, we were screening their confessions to see who lied or whose confession had loopholes."

"Generally speaking, we need to carefully identify and analyze, which is the serious way of doing the test. However, we can also directly apply the options, such as what I said at the end, directly comparing the tires of the three suspects, and we can get the answer. In this way, we can avoid reasoning."

When Bai Masong talks about solving cases, he changes his usual behavior. He is now really like a top student who is teaching problem-solving techniques to poor students.
