Chapter 15 Chapter VII

On the way back to Asahikawa, I was extremely tired. "This dried herring is delicious." "Yeah." I wasn't hungry, I just wanted to pass the time, so I ate the dried herring that Xiaoqi's owner gave us in the car. "I always feel...the whole day today was unexpected." "yes." "Feeling really tired." I leaned back in my chair and yawned.Skulls on the beach, martyrdom bodies, puppies... Today is really busy like a war. Although the incident between Mr. Shanlu and Xiaoqi's owner is sad, for some reason, I don't regret this day at all.

"It turned out to be wasted today." "Don't say that, didn't you find the bones of the seal?" "Ah, I just thought of it after hearing what you said!" Miss Sakurako thought of the seal bone I found at the beach, and then burst into a flower-like smile, dazzling and moving. "Come with me next time, go to the forest. I think the bones love you very much." "Huh? I don't want it!" "Wonderful to find rabbits in good shape, you're about to learn how to put bones together. You seem to be a quick learner." "No need."

"You're welcome." "I'm not polite, I really don't like it!" "Why don't you like it?" "No reason... Ah, Miss Yingzi, drive and look ahead!" Ms. Yingzi was driving but looking towards me, I hurriedly asked her to look ahead. "No matter what you say, I will definitely not come with you next time!" What bones love me, I don't want such a horrible thing!I'm not interested in bone specimens, let alone looking for dead animals in the forest! However, I think I will be dragged away in the end, Miss Yingzi will always only care about herself.

A few days later, a fisherman who lived several kilometers from where he died was charged with murder.The case was quickly solved. The rope on the corpse's hands was tied with a "man-knot" commonly used by fishermen, and the spots on the corpse also matched the unevenness of the platform of the murderer's pickup truck. Evidence such as money disputes between him and the two victims was released one after another. Half a year after this case, I almost forgot all the details of that day in Zengmao, but suddenly a policeman who greeted us sent a large package to Miss Yingzi's house.Even more surprising, the package contained the complete skeleton of a sea lion.

A letter was also attached to the package, which read as follows: "This man is really weird." Miss Yingzi looked at the letter in the package and smiled. "Would you? He's very nice." "Well, the sweet shrimp is delicious, that's a great place." "That's right." I couldn't help wanting to see Mr. Yamaji again, but Ms. Sakurako probably wanted to see him more than I did. "Do you have sea lion bones at home?" "No, I was commissioned to make several sets of specimens before, but I didn't keep them myself." "Wouldn't that be nice?"

"Yes..." Miss Yingzi smiled and nodded, stroking the curve of the bones with her fingertips. "Go and thank him in Xia Tian." "You're really nosy." Miss Yingzi didn't refuse, and she seemed to have the same meaning. Later, we became good friends with Shanlu Xunzhang. Ms. Yingzi’s family would receive several batches of delicious specialties such as octopus, sweet shrimp, and cherries every year. I go to him every year to taste the fine wine brewed by the northernmost winery in Hokkaido with spring springs in winter and summer, paired with delicious sweet shrimp, and talk about Ms. Yingzi's "courage in the past", but this is also an anecdote after a long, long time .

By the way, I happened to meet Xiao Qi's owner once again. "In this way, I won't be caught by crows again!" Auntie said with a smile on her face. There is a thick and fluffy Samoyed dog beside her, whose name seems to be "Xiaoba" (it seems that Xiaoqi should be the seventh pet of the family. ). "Its birthday just happens to be the anniversary of grandma's death, and only one foot is brown. I always feel that Xiao Qi was reincarnated!" Auntie smiled and touched the head of the huge dog beside her, and Xiao Ba also grinned. That incomparable smile made me smile knowingly.
