Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Disguising Operations

Police officer Waituli had nothing to say to the old woman in front of him. The old woman didn't realize that he was a policeman, but police officer Waituli knew everything about the old woman clearly. When police officer Waitoli came to the noisy platform of Ueno Station, he saw the old woman at a glance.She was wearing a brown collarless dress with a gauze belt around her waist and a black shopping bag in her hand. She looked about seventy years old, and she was Atsuko Futekoji. Di Xiaolu Atsuko was brought up by her stepmother and could not enjoy a trace of family affection; after marrying Di Xiaolu Taiwei, she had to endure her husband's extravagant personality. Since she had no children, she had to take home the children born to her concubine as her own flesh and blood. to raise.

She always closed herself up and didn't show her emotions in front of others; especially when she had to rely on her daughter-in-law's support later, her heart became as cold as ice because of the humiliation. At around 10:30 am on August 14, Showa 35, Atsuko Fuekoji was waiting for the "Kusatsu Onsen Express" on the Joetsu Line platform at Ueno Station. Her already serious expression became more and more rigid at this moment.Tomorrow is the first anniversary of Dixiaolu Taijiu's death, and Atsuko may be thinking about how to hold a ceremony for him! A passenger reading a newspaper stood by the iron post beside her.The passenger watched her every move from time to time.

When Kenzo Akutsu was in an accident at the end of Showa 33, the police treated it as a normal car accident.Although the police are still looking for the car that caused the accident, it is not the job of the First Search Unit.It wasn't until August of Showa 34, when the accidental death of Fute Koji Yasuhisa in a pool in Karuizawa, that the bizarre death of Akutsu Kenzo surfaced again. When Detective Kondo of the Karuizawa Police Department went to Tokyo to investigate the case, he happened to be received by the police officer Bodouli. At that time, the two of them were investigating Feng Chiyoko's ex-husbands, and the recent possibility of her fifth husband - Asuka Zhongxi At that time, the police officer Wang Li wanted to see Taijiu Di Xiaolu very much.

At this time, the "Kusatsu Onsen Express" arrived at the station, and the passengers began to board the train. The police officer Waitori immediately got on the train behind Atsuko Futekoji, and he sat on the seat opposite Atsuko very successfully. When the train slowly left the platform of Ueno Station, the police officer Waiting Force still couldn't find a chance to talk to the old woman.He gazed nonchalantly at the view from the window, and soon took a newspaper from the pocket of his loose cardigan, and opened it before his eyes. Atsuko Dixiaolu's bitter expression just now disappeared, and she returned to her original serious expression, and casually observed the man in front of her.

Police Officer Waiting Force is 174 cm tall, and he is quite handsome and handsome; especially since he has recently parted his gray hair to the left, he looks like a heavyweight. When the train left Omiya Station, Atsuko Dikoji took something out of her shopping bag, and when she didn't pay attention, the thing rolled to the feet of the police officer. Waiting for the force, the police officer bent over and picked it up. It turned out to be a famous handicraft in Hakone - a treasure box. It was a treasure box made up of eight overlapping matchboxes. The surface was composed of white, yellow, coffee, dark brown and black color plates to form a geometric pattern; Push the combined wood pieces in, and then pull and push other combined wood pieces in the same way, so that the box can be opened. It is an exquisitely designed treasure box.

Waiting for the police officer to look at the treasure box with interest, after a while, he smiled and handed the treasure box to Duzi.Duzi just nodded his head in gratitude, without saying anything. She put the treasure box into her shopping bag, and then took out a booklet from the bag; the police officer Waiting Force also turned his gaze back to the newspaper in front of him. Waiting for the police officer to catch a glimpse of the embarrassment on Duzi's face, and the next moment, her face returned to a serious expression. Atsuko is holding a tanka magazine edited by a famous female singer. She is one of the editorial members of this magazine. Every month her yongcao (drafts of Japanese Waka, sentence arrangement, etc.) will be published on the cover superior.She read the magazine intently, took out a ballpoint pen from her bag, and marked the ballads she thought were good.

Waiting carefully, the police officer saw that Atsuko's thoughts were not in the short song magazine.From time to time, she put the hand holding the ballpoint pen on the magazine, her eyes were blank, waiting for the police officer to know that she was not reciting waka, but a sense of anxiety and fear in her heart. (What the hell is this old woman afraid of?) Police officer Waiting Li pretended to be nonchalant and took out three newspapers from his pocket, and then bought a bento at Takasaki Station; while Atsuko just quietly watched the opposite Police Officer Waiting Li eating. After waiting for the police officer to eat the bento very contentedly, he put the bento box under the seat, drank a cup of hot tea, and then looked out of the car window.

Soon, the police officer Waiting Li suddenly remembered something, got up and took out a black leather case from the shelf, and took out a booklet of "Guide to Karuizawa" from the bag. Just as he was flipping through the booklet, Atsuko said: "Sorry, may I ask..." (The fish finally took the bait!) "What's up?" "Are you going to Karuizawa?" "yes." There was a look of vigilance in Atsuko's eyes, and he continued: "Actually, I... sorry, where are you going in Karuizawa?" "Nanyuan." "Nanyuan? I heard it's a good place! There are many great scholars living in that area."

"Well, that's a favorite summer retreat for scholars." "Are you in the villa in Nanyuan?" "How is it possible! I don't even have the qualifications to own a villa in Karuizawa, so how can I have a villa in Nanyuan? I wonder if you know Mr. Nanjo Seiichiro from Nanyuan?" "Is he related to UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Agency)?" "Yes! I plan to rest at Mr. Nanjo's villa for two or three days, because my health is not very good." "But isn't Mr. Nanjo in Switzerland now?" "This is called 'Hell is not here, the little devil is in charge'."

"Sounds great! Do you work in law, too?" "yes." The police officer puffed up his chest and said with a smile.Although I don't know whether Atsuko believes his words, but the police officer Waiting Li calls himself a "law protector". "Well... I'm going to Karuizawa too." "Which area in Karuizawa are you going to?" "I'm going to Sakurazawa. I didn't expect this typhoon to be so powerful... When I was on the phone with my granddaughter this morning, she told me that she was terrified last night." "Is there no one else in the house?"

"There is another servant, but also a young girl." "In that case, you must be very worried?" "Well, I really wish I could go home sooner, but the Shinetsu Line is no longer available." "National Highway No. 18 seems to be in chaos." "That's why I took this bus instead. It was the first time I took this route, and I always felt a little uneasy." "I see." Waiting for the police officer to finally understand why Atsuko Dixiaolu showed a disturbed look. "It's also the first time for me to take this route to Karuizawa. I heard that there is a bus from Naganohara to Karuizawa, isn't it?" "There used to be a small tram from Kusatsu to Karuizawa, but this route has been abolished, so the Naganohara station is also newly built." "Do you not travel often?" "That was a long time ago." "Where is the furthest you've been?" "Actually, I spent most of my time in Dubing Ridge, so...by the way, I have been to the magma, so that should be the farthest place!" "Haha! The bus from Naganohara is from Shangzhou Mihara to Karuizawa." "So, the place I went is quite far away!" Atsuko made a surprised sound. "I'm going to call a taxi in Naganohara. If it's convenient, you can take a taxi with me. I'll take the taxi to the entrance of Nanyuan, and you can take it all the way to Karuizawa. It's easier to go to Karuizawa than from Xinxin It’s closer to Izawa, and you won’t be worried or afraid when you get there.” "Will this...will cause you trouble?" "How could it be? Anyway, riding alone in a car is the same as riding in a car with two people." "I'm sorry...then do as you want!" In retrospect, Duzi probably also found it incredible. She seldom talked with people openly, why did this man make her change so much? It was 1:35 when we arrived in Naganohara, and it was already 1:40 when Police Officer Waitori and Atsuko Futekoji stepped off the simple platform. "Most of these passengers will go to Karuizawa. If we don't hurry up, I'm afraid we won't be able to call a taxi." "Then what shall we do?" When the two of them came to the ticket gate, a bus was parked in the square in front of the station, and only a taxi was negotiating with passengers. "Madam, at this point, shall we take the bus instead? That bus seems to be bound for Karuizawa Station... No matter what, I will take you back to Karuizawa." Unfortunately, the bus was already full. Just when Duzi didn't know what to do, she saw a man about to get into the only remaining taxi. "Ah! Mr. Sakurai, Mr. Sakurana." "Is it someone you know?" "Yes... ah! Wait a minute!" "I'll call that person for you." Waiting for the force of the police officer is very interested in the surname "Sakurai".According to the police investigation, Asuka Zhongxi's son-in-law is called Sakurai Tetsuo. When the man in the car heard someone calling his name, he couldn't help sticking his head out of the car window in wonder; the police officer Waiting Li smiled when he saw the man. If it was really this man, he was in the same carriage as police officer Waitu Li and Atsuko just now! "can I help you?" "The woman on the other side is looking for you." Sakurai Tetsuo poked his head out of the car window, opened the door and got out of the car as soon as he saw Atsuko. "Aren't you Grandma Dixiaolu? Get in the car, get in the car!" "I'm sorry for stopping you suddenly... In fact, this gentleman wanted to accompany me back to Karuizawa, but he couldn't get a taxi." "It's okay, it's okay, I can give you a ride, get in the car!" Sakurai Tetsuo's attitude is quite kind. "Then I'll trouble you, I'll take the bus." "Oh! That's not too..." "You should get in the car too! Where are you going in Karuizawa?" "I'm going to Nanyuan." "This gentleman said he was going to Mr. Nanjo Joichiro's villa in Nanyuan." Nanjo Joichiro is like a strong identity card to the police officer Waitoli. Although I don't know whether Tetsuo Sakurai knows the name of Seiichiro Nanjo, but he is more polite to the police officer Waitori. "Nanyuan is on the way to Karuizawa, let's go there together!" "Excuse me then! I'll take the front seat. By the way, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name is Waiting Li. Please give me your advice." Waiting for the police officer to sit in the front seat of the taxi, he couldn't help but think of the Hakone handicraft that Atsuko Futekoji had just seen - the treasure box. The three of them seem to be combined wood pieces in a treasure box... What kind of things will be revealed in the process of the three combined wood pieces being opened and closed alternately?
