قسط 117: ماریکو کی کامیابی نیٹو بینک کے ساتھ ڈنر اور محفوظ پرندے کے تنازعے کا باعث بنتی ہے

117

The first "Global Food Tour" article by Mariko Niki is a success, and she takes Yamaoka and Kurita to meet her father who is head of Nito bank. However, Mr. Niki has also invited Kaibara to dinner, thinking that there is only friendly rivaly between the Ultimate and Supreme menu creators, not realizing the animosity that exists between Yamaoka and Kaibara. The first dish served is whole roasted bird, and both Yamaoka and Kaibara identify it as a Japanese thrush which is a protected bird species. Kabara soundly reprimands the chef, then loudly criticizes Yamaoka for not recognizing the bird until he tasted it, causing him huge embarrassment. Yamaoka does not return to work for 10 days, but then arrives looking and smelling like a "bum". He claims to have identified the location of the bird traps and leads a Touzai expedition to where nets have been erected to catch the migrating birds but also catch other endangered species. Later that night, when the poachers arrive, they are caught by the police and photographed by Touzai staff for another Touzai Graph article by Mariko. Later, Mr. Niki shows the article to Kaibara which also details the effort Yamaoka made to find the poachers, but Kaibara makes no comment. (Source: Wikipedia)
