Chapter 31 Section VI

On July 17, the rainy season stopped. The town of Kanazawa is covered with golden sunshine.The sun has heated the asphalt road, and the road is steaming.The Sai River flowing across the middle of the town is also swaying with steam like a gossamer. White light flickered on the water.The white light shows the intense heat of summer. Han Chuan was fortunate enough to stand by the river, watching the water flow. Suzuki Seiji's home is in Kasamai Honcho, not far from Saikawa, and it was a rented house when he was stationing.Suzuki has resigned as Hokichi inspector.He used to live in the government dormitory, but had to move out after resigning.The rented house near Saikawa was much worse than the government dormitory.

Suzuki resigned from the prosecutor's office on June 25.The reason for the resignation is unclear.But Han Chuan guessed that it was not he who resigned on his own initiative, but the prosecutor's office told him to resign.Probably Tatsuno Nagashige from the Hokkaido District Procuratorate and Morimoto Hirofumi who ran away from home also ended up in the same end. It was the highest inspection body that made the decision. They were abandoned. Suzuki resigned on June 25 and left the office dormitory on July 1.The sorrow of the outcast can be seen in the speed of action. In this temporarily rented house, his wife and a boy in the first grade of middle school lived.In the past, Suzuki and his wife had been living in the government dormitory, and they had two sons.The eldest son is a high school student and stays with Suzuki's parents in Tokyo.

Samukawa didn't understand why Suzuki didn't return to Tokyo after resigning from the prosecutor's office.Most of the prosecutors resigned to become practicing lawyers.He was born in Tokyo, and it stands to reason that he should return to Tokyo after resigning.Because it may be more convenient to practice law in Tokyo. Of course, it doesn't matter to Han Chuan. The purpose of Suzuki's practice as a lawyer can only be to kill the Hanchuan couple.If he can't achieve this goal, he can't become a lawyer. Perhaps, he will never become a lawyer. Han Chuan knew in his heart how to deal with him.Of course, he can do nothing but send him to hell.

The day before yesterday, Han Chuan came to Kanazawa City.Yesterday he scouted Suzuki's whereabouts and found out the house he was renting.Today, Samukawa rented an apartment where he could monitor Suzuki's house. He decides to spy on Suzuki.Since he returned the Yukiko who was kidnapped in exchange for Reiko, he didn't consider other battle plans.Kidnapping targets are available, and so are children.If the child is kidnapped, they will have to return Reiko. However, except for Yukiko, he can no longer kidnap innocent people.There is only one way left, which is to catch one of the enemies.If Suzuki can be caught, Reiko can be exchanged.He planned to spy on him starting tonight.

Saikawa flows quietly.This is a river that is very popular with poets and poets.It is said that Kanazawa's famous "sculpture fish" comes from this river.The white clouds reflected in the blue river water are also very charming. Whether it is sculpture fish or literati, it has nothing to do with Hanchuan.For him, Saikawa is just a channel of flowing water, nothing else. On the surface of the water reflecting the white clouds, the face of You Kaizi was superimposed.Why it was her, Han Chuan couldn't figure it out either.He felt that he should not be thinking of screwdriver, but Reiko.

The carcass of Yukaizi who broke up more than ten days ago came before his eyes. This carcass was white and beautiful. Han Chuan stared at her. He shook his head, shaking the image away.He felt his own ugliness because it was not Reiko who appeared in front of him.Anyway, Yukiko is the wife of the enemy, how obscene it is to be immersed in lust all the time. ——It’s really impossible.Han Chuan murmured in his heart.For men, perhaps women are in such a position.He understood how sad it is for a tourist to be forgotten by the other party and go away alone. A white water bird flitted across the water.

Suzuki Seiji has been under surveillance for seven days. Suzuki was not at home.He knew this from the beginning, and he called to check the situation pretending to be a local prosecutor. Had to wait for him to come back. Suzuki must have gone to the secret place where Reiko was imprisoned.Probably my family, Morimoto, Tatsuno, etc. all gathered there.While ravaging Reiko in turn, they planned a plot to kill Han Chuan.It is conceivable that Yoshiaki Kurosawa is inquiring about Hanchuan's whereabouts everywhere. This is a sinister guy.These four nearly fifty-year-olds who had been forced to resign were conspiring to cover up the crimes they committed sixteen years ago, and they were playing with their opponent's wives at the same time.Why didn't they come out one by one to accept Han Chuan's challenge?

He buried his hatred deep in his heart. It has been monitored for seven days.Han Chuan was full of anxiety.Suzuki did not return.Han Chuan thought, even if he hid in some secret stronghold, he wouldn't stay there forever.He thought Suzuki would go home often, so he was here to monitor. He realized that monitoring like this would be futile. Probably these guys didn't plan to leave the secret stronghold before killing Han Chuan. Maybe the family received a call from their own home or office, and got the news that his wife had been kidnapped once.Maybe they saw from Han Chuan's move to release Yukaizi that the next tactic Han Chuan would adopt was to directly hijack the person involved.

——If that's the case... He was terrified. The door of Suzuki's house can be reached from the window. —to have a duel? In a sense of futility, such thoughts arose.If you make a phone call to the law office at home, you can get in touch with Kurosawa, and the duel will be held almost tomorrow. He wanted to fight, and he anxiously hoped that all grievances and grievances would be settled through a showdown. He looked anxiously at the avenue.The boulevard runs north and south in front of the apartments.Suzuki's house is across the road on the left.There is a residential area.

When his gaze moved to the right unintentionally, he froze suddenly, and a chill passed over his body. Behind a utility pole about fifty meters away, there was a man. The man held a camera in his hand and pointed at Han Chuan.When Han Chuan found the person, the other party put down the camera and didn't see whether he pressed the shutter or not. The man turned and left. Han Chuan's fear still hasn't disappeared. After watching that person go away, Han Chuan realized that he was in a cold sweat.Who is he?Anyway, whoever it is, this is not an ordinary person.He felt that the man must have pressed the shutter.

—Is it the police? No, Han Chuan denied this guess.The police don't secretly take pictures.If you suspect that you are the murderer of Shimada and Hiraizumi.They'll just break into the house. ——Who is it if it’s not the police? Han Chuan looked up. Maybe it's a coincidence.What that person wants to photograph is not Hanchuan but other things, such as houses, other people, scenery and so on. This factor cannot be ruled out.Now there are many people who love photography.People who take snapshots are everywhere, and that person may be of this type. Han Chuan wiped his sweat. He is still looking up at the sky.In the air, he depicted himself captured by that person's camera. Go south along the road until you reach the river.The asphalt road has been dried by the sun.The roads are lined with cheap apartments and homes.The background is a sunny summer sky.After noon, people were walking outside, and even the house dog refused to come out.Only Han Chuan was watching the movement on the street. — Do you want to run away? Hanchuan trembled violently.He didn't know why, but he seemed to smell a dangerous atmosphere. A truck drives past. Han Chuan was lucky not to run away. The instinct of protection told him to run away quickly, but he hadn't found the reason why he had to run away. Nothing happened that day. He kept monitoring until midnight, but Suzuki still didn't show up.After nine o'clock, the lights in Suzuki's house went out.I went to bed at this time, although it was a bit too early, but it was like this every night, which also showed the frightened state of mind of the family members who stayed behind. Before he stopped watching and lay down to sleep, he thought of the man from the day again.He felt that it was accidental, if he came from Chongsanchuan, he would only be Suzuki's accomplice.Had he been Suzuki's accomplice, there would be nothing to fear.He even wished to make contact with him. He carefully locked the door and fell asleep. Before nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, Han Chuan opened his eyes. Nothing unusual was found.He said to himself that there could be nothing out of the ordinary.After washing up, he cooked instant noodles. After eating, he continued his surveillance. He thought, monitor for another two or three days, and if Suzuki still doesn't come back, he will contact Kurosawa.It's hard to predict what actions the enemy will take, maybe they can't save Reiko, but they can't stay here forever. You must take the initiative to attack. If you take action here, the other party will also take corresponding action.Maybe you can find an opportunity to turn defeat into victory in the opponent's movements. To this day, Suzuki's home remains the same. The red sunset sank. After sunset, a cool breeze comes from the window.It seems to be the wind blowing from Saichuan.Han Chuan was naked and let the breeze blow by. Someone was knocking on the door, knocking, knocking very politely.Han Chuan didn't answer, and put on his shirt.The door is locked.He was ready to escape at any time. He peered out of the north window.The house that Han Chuan rented was on the second floor of the apartment. If you go out of the window, you can jump off the roof and you will be on the ground.Disappears in darkness in a moment. Han Chuan found a person standing below, a middle-aged man.He was looking up at the room where Han Chuan was. Han Chuan's heart tightened. There was another knock on the door. Hanchuan immediately realized that the surveillance of Suzuki's house had been discovered by the enemy.That person yesterday was indeed hired by the enemy. He regretted being so careless. Because he hijacked his wife at home, the gang had set up strict security measures in their own homes, and instructed the surveillance personnel to take pictures of him if anyone came to snoop. Those guys must have sent killers after seeing the photos taken. I can only fight. He came to the door. "Who?" he asked in a low voice. "Police." The other party's voice was rough. "I have something to ask, please open the door." "Wait a minute, it will open right away." He carefully unlocked the door.Han Chuan always thought it was the killer, but he never thought it would be the police. After unlocking the door, he took a few steps back. "The door is open, come in." In case it was a killer, he was confident that he could knock him to the ground with one blow. The door opened. Two middle-aged men stood at the door. "what are you doing?" One of them asked, showing a police ID. Han Chuan was discouraged. "What do the police want me for?" "Go to the police station and talk about it. Let's go." "Where's the arrest warrant?" "That's not what it means. Just take a walk, don't you want to?" The policeman looked at Hanchuan coldly. "Ok." Han Chuan thought, something went wrong somewhere.
