Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 95 Interview
Ishino guessed that Kosaki probably thought Amuro Toru looked familiar, and wanted to confirm at close range whether he was the boy he had met when he was a child.

However, Toru Amuro has experienced so many things in these years, and he has long been used to playing multiple identities. It is difficult for Xiaosaki to see anything from the other party's performance, so Ishino did not stop her, and agreed to her request with a smile.

Watching her sister walk into the back kitchen and Amurotou alone in the room, Xiao Ai resisted the uneasiness in her heart and came outside the door, looking at the two people inside.

Ishino knew what Xiao Ai was worried about, walked up to her and patted her on the shoulder, took her to a place away from the back kitchen, bent down and asked softly: "What's the matter, Xiao Ai? Since you saw that Mr. Amuro just now Afterwards, I felt a little restless.”

Feeling the care from the old father, Xiao Ai also gradually calmed down, and explained in a low voice: "When Mr. Anshi just entered the door, I felt that kind of organizational atmosphere from him..."

"However, since he put on his apron and started making desserts, this feeling has weakened a lot. Maybe it's because he was wearing a black suit before, maybe I'm thinking too much..." Xiao Ai doubted her own Intuition said.

After listening to Xiao Ai's analysis, Ishino felt that this change should be caused by Undercover Amuro himself. It seems that he really loves cooking, and even the evil spirit on his body was covered by that enthusiasm when cooking.

However, Ishino naturally wouldn't tell Xiao Ai these things, and he would be happy to let her continue to maintain the current direction of thinking, so he followed the other party's train of thought and comforted: "This should be the reason, when you get used to it You won’t be so nervous when you’re around people in black.”

With that said, Ishino pointed to Amuro Toru who was busy behind him and said with a smile: "You see his face is so dark, why don't you let him stay and work in the store, and when you get used to the feeling of being around him, you won't Don't be afraid of it anymore."

"Dad, you can't laugh at other people's skin color." Xiao Ai was no longer nervous after being teased by Shi Ye's words, and rolled his eyes at him and said, "Let's talk about it after his craftsmanship is recognized by me."

Hearing Xiao Ai's answer, Ishino knew that the other party had actually accepted his suggestion, so he didn't say anything more, and returned to the counter to wait for Toru Amuro to submit the final answer sheet.

He was worrying about how to get Xiao Ai out of the trouble of "alcohol radar" as soon as possible. He didn't expect Toru Amuro to come to his door. If he didn't make good use of it, he would be too sorry for the sincerity of the other party's investigation.

On the other side, Kosaki watched Toru Amuro skillfully start making desserts, and asked curiously, "Uncle Amuro, what dessert do you want?"

"French vanilla soufflé, it's a dessert that little girls will love." Toru Amuro smiled and replied to the little girl, without stopping his movements.

In fact, since he first entered the store, he has been paying attention to the reactions of the two little girls.

The younger sister Xiao Ai seemed a little afraid of him, but considering the age of the other party, it was normal to have that kind of reaction when she saw herself dressed in black and meeting a stranger for the first time.

And the older sister in front of her, Xiao Qi, is obviously quite courageous, and she looks very interested in him, but her innocent and cute appearance is too different from the carefree little girl in my mind, so I don't like it. Doubt the identity of the other party.

Seeing the other person looking at her and speaking in a very natural tone, Xiaosaki also felt that she must have misunderstood the person, but she still asked tentatively: "Then uncle, are you of mixed race, did you grow up in Tokyo?"

Hearing this question, Toru Amuro recalled for a moment that when he was a child, he got into fights because he was ridiculed for his biracial characteristics, and he often went to the Miyano Clinic to seek medical treatment from Dr. Elena.

But at this time, he no longer feels inferior because of this, and can calmly face this question, so he replied with a smile: "You guessed it, I am of mixed race, but I have been living abroad since I was a child, and then I returned to Japan with my father." .”

Even in the face of children, Toru Amuro had no intention of telling the other party his real situation, so he made up some experiences to fool the past.

Knowing that Amuro Toru did not live in Tokyo since he was a child, Xiaosaki also confirmed that the other party was not the little brother who often ran to his house when he was a child, so he said that he would wait outside and left the back kitchen.

Toru Amuro didn't care, he just thought it was the little girl who got bored after watching it for a while, and continued to concentrate on making desserts.

An hour later, when the kitchen door was opened, a strong sweet smell spread instantly, arousing the appetite of the two little girls.

Toru Amuro walked out of the back kitchen with a confident smile on his face, three soft and fluffy French souffles were neatly placed on the tray in his hand, and motioned for the three of them to taste it.

Ishino asked his two daughters to take one each, and took the rest by himself. Then he took three small spoons from the shelf and inserted them into each souffle.

Looking at the golden cake texture inside after the spoon broke the surface, the three of them concluded that the taste of this dessert must be good.

After tasting the souffle made by the other party, Xiaosaki took the lead in giving a "delicious" evaluation and gave a thumbs up to show her approval.

"It's not bad, but it's still far from what my mother did." Xiao Ai gave a truthful evaluation.

Hearing Xiao Ai's evaluation, Toru Amuro did not show any dissatisfaction, and humbly stated that there is indeed a lot of room for improvement in his level.

After all, if the cake yesterday was made by Kasaka Natsumi, there is indeed a big gap between him and the other party in dessert making skills, which he fully recognizes.

After listening to the evaluation of his daughters, Ishino put down the half-eaten dessert in his hand, nodded to Toru Amuro, and stretched out his hand to him.

Knowing that he passed the interview, Toru Amuro put the tray on the table beside him, held the other's outstretched hand, and nodded in greeting.

"Congratulations on passing the interview, you can officially become an employee of Memory Sweet House." Ishino said the assessment result with a smile, then took out two employment contracts from the drawer, handed them to the other party and said, "The specific working hours and salary are all On it, you can see if there is any problem."

Toru Amuro took the contract, quickly browsed through the above terms, took out a pen from his pocket, signed his name directly on it, and handed one copy back to Ishino: "No problem, I can come tomorrow work."

……

That night, Xiaosaki and Xiaoai told Natsumi that a new official clerk was hired today.

After Xia Mei learned that the other party was a hearty boy who loves making desserts and is not bad at the level, she felt relieved about recalling the management of Sweet House during the time she was away.

Early the next morning, Natsumi embarked on a journey to France after seeing off her husband and daughters.
