As if fake, the thing under my feet just disappeared—— The blind girl used this term to describe the moment when the accident happened.Unable to visually grasp the situation on the scene, she can only judge what happened on the yacht with the feeling that her body is out of balance. She said that almost at the same moment that the object she was stepping on disappeared, the sea water rushed up.She didn't know whether she fell into the sea or the boat was flooded. "Because I've never fallen into the ocean before that," she said. In short, the whole body is immersed in water!

After struggling for a while in terror, she was hugged by someone. "Don't worry, it's Dad!" The voice came to her later, so she grabbed her father desperately—— "What happened after that, I don't know. Dad told me not to move around, so I just grabbed Dad's wrist and gave myself completely to Dad. My body seemed to be drifting backwards, I think it was probably It's because of Dad's swimming direction!" When rescuing people, it seems to be swimming like that, right?I thought about it while listening to her. She didn't seem to know how long it took to reach the uninhabited island.Because of fear, it felt like a long time had passed, but she said that she was not sure whether it had actually passed that long.Not only at that time, she usually has no idea about the length of time.Maybe that's true!

"When I approached the uninhabited island, I finally felt relieved because I finally stepped on the land. As a result, the strength of my whole body seemed to disappear." I wholeheartedly agree with what she said.Dongzi who was sitting in front also nodded. It seems that not long after arriving on the uninhabited island, Yumi lost consciousness.This is probably due to the sudden release from extreme tension!And she should have consumed a considerable amount of energy. "When I regained consciousness, I heard someone talking. I knew immediately that it was from the people who were on the boat together. After knowing that those people also escaped successfully, I was relieved. But... "

Then she stopped talking.This kind of silent way is like trying to leap over something, but decides to stop at the last moment.Because of this, she showed an expression of loathing herself. "There was a woman screaming," she said after taking a deep breath. "It was loud...like it was going to burst its throat." "What did she call?" I asked. "I beg you..." Yumi said, her tone was so strong that even Toko turned her head to look at us. "Help... that woman called." I nodded understandingly. "Please help—is that what she said?" "yes……"

"Yeah." I said. "Then who does she want everyone to help? Because that woman should have been saved, right?" "He..." She interrupted for a moment before continuing, "What that woman said was—please help him." "Help him...?" "Do you remember who that woman is?" Toko asked Yumi, "At that time, there were four other women who participated besides you, right? Your mother, secretary Murayama, and the photographer Ms. Shinsato Miyuki , with a man named Yasuko Furusawa. Don't you know which one it is?" "I don't know," Yumi shook her head, "but because there were couples participating, I think it should be the woman of the couple. But I don't know what the name is."

couple? —— If this is the case, neither Miyuki Shinsato nor Noriko Murayama can be considered.Of course, it couldn't be Mrs. Yamamori either. "In other words, that woman wants someone to save her boyfriend?" I confirmed again. "I suppose so." "Who else was there at that time?" After listening to my question, Yumi twisted her face in pain. "Dad... It seems that there are several other people there, but I don't know. Everyone's voice is very low, and my own consciousness is not very clear... I'm sorry." No need to apologize!I said. "And then? How did the people over there react? Did they go to save that woman's boyfriend?"

Although I told myself to use a calm tone as much as possible, the voice was still hurried by accident. She shook her petite face. "It seems that someone said there was no way, but the woman kept crying and begging everyone. At that time, I thought to myself, just ask Dad to think of a way! But at the moment I seemed to pass out again, and what happened later I can't remember things either. Every time I try to remember, my head starts to hurt, and like Dad said, I also feel like I'm mixing dreams and reality... so I don't Mentioned this to anyone." After saying this, she picked up the violin case and sat forward a little as if she was afraid of something.

"Is this what you experienced on the uninhabited island?" I asked, and she nodded like a wind-up doll.I put my palm on her thin shoulder and said, "Thank you." "Can you protect Dad?" I exerted a little force on my palm. "These words of yours make me feel that I should be able to protect him!" "It's a good thing I said so." "Of course!" As I spoke, Toko started the car. We drove Yumi to the door of Yamamori's house, pressed the intercom, and told the other party that the daughter of their family had been sent back safely, and then ran away at full speed regardless of the other party's yelling.Looking back from the car, I saw the girl who was supposedly invisible was waving in our direction.

"Finally, I can see something." After driving for a while, Dongzi said, "A woman——in front of her eyes, her boyfriend was killed by people who would not save her. This boyfriend is Yukihiro Takemoto. .” "And that woman is undoubtedly the one named Yasuko Guzawa." I said. "Anyway," Dongzi said halfway, honking the horn at the car ahead that suddenly slammed on the brakes.It seems that she is used to this white Mercedes. "That woman named Yasuko Gu Zezi watched her boyfriend die and started revenge!" "This structure is too simple."

"That's right. But because of his simplicity, President Yamamori himself noticed it. Not only him, but other people who participated in the trip must have known it too!" "In this way," a scene came to my mind - the night when I finally met Masayuki Kawazu. "Kawazu may also know that the reason why he was targeted was Yasuko Guzawa's revenge! That's why he went to talk to President Yamamori." As I spoke, I began to feel a little depressed.Is my boyfriend also one of the people who refused to save Yukihiro Takemoto? No, didn't he hurt his foot at that time——

"That means the same content as Yumi's testimony is written in the stolen documents of Kawazu!" I nodded in agreement with what Dongzi said. "It's also clear why Shinsato Miyuki wants to get that document. There's also the reason why none of those accidental people want to talk to us properly." "The problem is Yasuko Guzawa..." Dongzi said, "Where is she?" "Maybe hiding somewhere, observing the opportunity to kill the next target!" I thought about that woman I had never met.Although it was just the result of an accident, but what kind of emotion is the shock of being helpless when your lover dies in front of your eyes?She also spent a night with the group of people who deserved to hate, and then they were rescued together the next day.In my heart, I think she should have started to draw up a revenge plan as early as that time. In her script, who will be killed next?
