Chapter 12 Section 12

Standing on the platform of Nagano Station, the suffocating heat covers the whole body, and the sweat is constantly pouring out of the back.Changfeng regretted that he mistakenly thought that the weather in Xinzhou had turned cold.In the travel bag he was carrying, there were several pieces of clothing that were a bit heavy for this season. Changfeng walked on the platform while looking around.There were a lot of men who looked like office workers, but no one noticed him. Changfeng carries a travel bag and carries a golf bag on his shoulder.This can be said to be the most common attire for middle-aged men.

Once out of the exit, he started looking for a coin locker.Must be large enough to hold a golf bag. When he found a large locker he was satisfied with, he put his golf bag in it, and closed the door while looking at the instructions.The storage period is three days.Changfeng looked at his watch to confirm today's date and current time.You have to come back within three days to take the golf bag away, in case the staff sees the contents, there will be no need to talk about it. With no weight on his body, he walked out of the station and entered a nearby bookstore.It was a large bookstore, and it was unlikely that the clerk would remember the customer's face.He bought a guidebook for Nagano Prefecture and a book that covered lodgings.Next door to the bookstore is the stationery store, where he bought letter paper and envelopes.Because the store also sold stamps, he bought three 80-yuan stamps.

After entering the coffee shop and ordering a cup of coffee, he took out the book he just bought.The store was half full, but no one was paying attention to him. The man sitting across from him was reading a newspaper.On the newspaper facing him, there was a big headline "New Developments in the Adachi District Bizarre Murder Case".He quickly lowered his head. Changfeng thought: The police probably have concluded that he was the one who killed Atsuya Banzaki.He hardly made any effort to conceal his crime.The police should have found a lot of his own fingerprints in Banzaki's room.Even the murder weapon was left at the scene.

After killing Banzaki, Nagamine was in a daze for a while.Even if he stabbed the knife into the immobile corpse, he didn't feel happy at all.He discovered that the corpse was just a corpse, no longer the object of his hatred. Changfeng didn't realize that he had made a serious mistake, there was only emptiness in his heart, he didn't have the energy to do anything, he could only let things happen.If you stay here, maybe someone will see it.Then that person will go to the police, and he will be arrested by the police who arrive.He didn't even think it mattered. At this moment, he saw the pink bathrobe again.The happy figure of Ema in that yukata came to his mind.

But in the next instant, that figure became nude and was sexually assaulted by two men.The image he had just seen on the video tape came to life. The heart-wrenching pain hit him again.In order to get rid of the annoying image, he shook his head and covered his face with his hands. Can't stop here, Changfeng thought, can't be arrested by the police here.Otherwise, there would be no point in killing Banzaki. Kanno Kaiji must be found, he thought, and no matter what, he must catch another beast, let him taste the pain that Ema suffered-even if it is only one percent.That's why he's alive now.

He was careful not to make a sound, and searched around the house.He had to find some way to find some clues that could lead to Kaiji Kanno's whereabouts, he thought. "Escape to... a homestay in Nagano." The last words of Atsuya Banzaki are the only clues, but only relying on these words, Nagamine has nothing to do.It is necessary to know where he is in Nagano and which guesthouse. But after searching the entire room, Changfeng couldn't find any clues related to Kanno Kaiji's current hiding place. When he made up his mind to walk out of the room, he noticed that his clothes were covered with blood.In this way, as soon as you go out, someone will run to call the police.Nor could he take a tram or a taxi.

He opened the cheap wardrobe, and among the messy clothes, he pulled out a pair of khaki trousers and a white T-shirt.He thought it was the least strange for a middle-aged man to dress like this.As soon as he put it on, he felt that his waist was very tight, but it didn't look unnatural. He threw his blood-stained clothes on the bed.Anyway, it should be difficult to judge the murderer's identity only from the clothes, and the police will definitely know that the perpetrator is him in the end, so he didn't intend to make a desperate struggle. After the police found the body of Atsuya Banzaki, they should investigate him thoroughly.In this way, sooner or later, they will know that Banzaki is the murderer who killed Nagamine Ema.During the investigation, the detectives should also have contact with the person who told Changfeng who the murderer was.Maybe the informer who knows the ins and outs of the whole incident will also take the initiative to contact the police.No matter what, the police will definitely suspect Changfeng at that time.

That's why Changfeng didn't remove his fingerprints.Moreover, he felt that there was probably no way to completely clean the fingerprints.Since he never thought that he would kill Banzaki, he fumbled around the room with his bare hands.If you want to clean it, you have to wipe every corner of the house with a cloth, not only indoors, but also the outside of the door and the railings on the balcony.At that time, he just wanted to leave the room as soon as possible, and he didn't have time to do these things at all. Most importantly, there is one thing that must be taken away.He took out the videotape from the VCR and put it in the bag he had brought.

It was a videotape of Ema's miserable state. In this way, the time when the police determined that Atsushi Banzaki was also the murderer who killed Ema might be slightly delayed.In this case, no matter how many fingerprints Changfeng leaves, the police probably won't think of him for the time being. In addition, there is a more important reason. As a father, he must never let others see his daughter's miserable appearance, even if the other party is a policeman.Ema in that world will definitely ask everyone to let her go. He decided to take back Ema's yukata.In addition to cutting off the connection between Tuma's murder and this case, he also didn't want to leave Tuoma's belongings in such a dirty place.

Changfeng searched around the house to see if there were any of Tumo's things, and then under the bed he found the belt of the bathrobe and the small bag she carried out last.He stuffed them all into his bag.But because the yukata couldn't fit, he had to put it in a convenience store plastic bag that was left aside. He decided to go out through the door of the room.It would be troublesome if someone saw you when you climbed out of the window. He opened the door, made sure no one was watching, and emerged from the room, whereupon he discovered a serious oversight—he didn't have a key to the room.

He hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to go back to get the key, but after hearing people talking in the distance, he left directly from the door.One is that he can't procrastinate there, and the other is that he may not be able to find the key immediately when he goes back to the room. If the door is not locked, the body may be discovered earlier, but even if the door is locked, it should not be too bad.At this time, it is more important to leave quickly. He took a taxi home because he didn't have the guts to take a tram where he had to meet a lot of people face to face.He didn't know how gloomy his face was when he had just killed someone.In the taxi, he tried not to look at or chat with the driver. After returning home, he immediately started packing his luggage.Although he took out his travel bag, he knew clearly that this was not an ordinary trip.He was preparing not for the trip, but for the disappearance. He decided to buy all the necessities and try not to put useless things in the bag.Instead, he put all the Ema relics brought back from Banzaki's room into the bag, and then took a few photos he liked from the album and put them together in the travel bag, which also included a photo of his wife .After looking at the photo album, tears filled his eyes. After packing your bags, there is one more thing you must do.He went into the living room and looked at the thing. When he started shooting, the coach once told him: "Guns have incredible magical powers. As long as they get their hands, anyone will want to pull the trigger. But when they are really confronted with something, people can't pull the trigger—because they know the horror of guns. To shoot something like this is to fight that fear." With Kaiji Kanno standing in front of him, could his fingers pull the trigger hard enough?It never occurred to him to shoot and kill, no, not at all, but it was a fantasy at best, and it hadn't really occurred to him in the real world. Changfeng took out the special gun bag and put the gun parts in it.Halfway through, however, he changed his mind and took the parts out again.A passer-by in a gun bag for a shotgun will know it at a glance, and he can't carry this kind of thing on the road, he thought to himself. In the end, he opted for golf bags.That was the prize he got when he won the runner-up in a competition before. He decided to wait until late at night before going out.Before that, Changfeng walked around the house, looking at every corner.The couple's bedroom, Ema's room, kitchen, living room, bathroom, and living room.In every room, there are happy memories like dreams.He thought of the situation when he first moved to this house, and his heart ached.If he hadn't moved here, Tuma wouldn't have encountered such a thing, but he still remembers the happiness of buying a new house. Sitting on the sofa, he spent quiet moments drinking whiskey on the rocks.Memories are all steeped in sadness.To overcome the temptation to seek death, you can only let hatred burn. People's laughter brought Chang Feng back to his senses.There was a cup of coffee in front of him, and he took a sip, only to find that it was a little cold. It was the three of them who were laughing just now.The child was a boy of four or five years old, and he was drinking an ice cream soda. If my child was a boy, wouldn't this happen to me?This idea suddenly flashed in Changfeng's mind.But then he changed his mind and felt that the problem was not here.Weird is the world.Do parents who give birth to girls have to live in fear every day? After killing Banzaki, he knew very well that revenge was unrealistic and he would get nothing.Even so, Changfeng still couldn't let go of another man.He felt it was a betrayal of Emo.The only one who can punish the beasts that bully Emo is himself. He knew he had no right to sanction crimes.This should be the responsibility of the court.So, will the courts really sanction the perpetrators? Will not.Through newspapers and television, Changfeng somehow knew how the trial was conducted, or in which cases the multiple convictions were imposed.As far as his personal knowledge is concerned, the court will not sanction criminals. It is more appropriate to say that the court will save the criminal.They will give the sinner a chance to be a man again, and then hide the sinner from the eyes of those who hate him. This is the sentence.And the sentences were surprisingly short.A murderer who takes someone's life away has not taken his life away. Moreover, Kaiji Kanno may also be a minor like Atsushi Banzaki. As long as he emphasizes that he did not kill Tuma on purpose, he may even be exempted from serving his sentence in prison. How can there be such a thing!That scumbag not only took away Emo's life, but also left the lives of everyone who loves Emo with wounds that cannot be healed. Changfeng took a deep breath, put the book on the table back into his bag, took out the pen and the letter paper he bought at the stationery store just now. He has to apologize to relatives.He knew he could seriously disrupt their lives next.They have to accept the censure and curiosity of the world, and maybe they have to accept interviews from the media.Although an apology will not help them, but if there is no notification, Changfeng will still feel sorry. There is another object of apology - the company.He didn't expect that he would leave the company he had served for so many years so suddenly. He knew that it would bring trouble to the company, so he couldn't ignore it.If this incident broke out, he should be dismissed, right?However, he felt he should submit his resignation first. He had to write a letter to another place. Changfeng thought: That letter should be the most difficult to write!
