Chapter 41 Section 5

On the mountain road separating Babao and Xiaofu, Xiaozi's coupe was slowed down by an oil tanker.Since it is an uphill section, it is difficult to see the road ahead.Although there are no cars on the road, there is no guarantee that there will be no cars coming from the opposite lane.Xiao Zi tried several times to overtake the tanker, but had to give up because the sight was blocked by the tanker's huge size. "There will be a lane for large vehicles in a while." I don't know if Xiao Zi is telling it to herself?Or did you tell me? I couldn't sit in the passenger seat calmly, so I took out my mobile phone.I don't know when Banping, who took the first step, will contact me, so it's better not to get busy on the phone, but if I don't do anything, just sit obediently in the passenger seat and wait, that would be too painful .Although I was used to being in a state of not doing anything before, I just couldn't wait quietly. This may also be the proof of the decline of my perseverance in the past six months!I pressed the phone number of the second-hand clothing store "March Hare" I found just before Xiao Azusa arrived.

After a few rings, the phone connected. "Hi, this is 'March Hare'." The voice sounds a bit aged, but it feels like a lively woman. "Hi, hello, is this 'March Hare'?" "yes." "May I ask you a question?" "Please say." "Excuse me, do you know Ms. Kiriko Sakura?" As soon as I said Tongzi's name, the tone of the other party changed immediately. "...Didn't I already tell you? I can't answer any of your questions without first telling me who you are. If you call again, I'm going to call the police!"

The other party scolded me severely and hung up the phone. I quietly put the mobile phone back into my pocket.I had expected such a reaction from "March Hare".In the record of "duplicate", it is located in Babao, and the only store with the name of the store is written, as far as I know, it is only "March Hare".If Jianbi really came to Babao after Tongzi, the first shop locked in the investigation must be "March Hare"!When I asked Watanabe where Kiriko often went, she didn't mention the store "March Hare". Is this a blessing or a misfortune for me?However, judging from the results, it doesn't matter whether it is luck or misfortune.

What is the means of transportation between the walls?Perhaps this is the key to deciding whether I have time or not.Before that, he should have been walking or driving!Although he appeared in the valley to find Tongzi's whereabouts, the residents here can tell whether you are a local or a foreigner at a glance, so he can neither take a bus nor a taxi, even if he drives his own car Or a motorcycle, the license plate number will also attract attention.So I'm afraid most of his activities are concentrated at night! However, if he pretends to be "a student majoring in history goes to the shrine to check information after participating in the temple fair", then even in Xiaofu it won't look too suspicious.So the possibility of him taking a taxi is greatly improved.

If this is the case, the partition should be about to enter the "City Mountain" by now. Finally driving to a place with a lane for large vehicles, the tanker changed lanes.Xiao Zi kept the car in second gear and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.After the speed is fully pulled up, switch to third gear.Although the slope is very steep, she still hits the highest gear in one go.When I was worried, the engine roared sharply, and the speed suddenly increased a lot. When driving close to the top of the mountain, Xiao Zi finally slowed down.I know what she's doing.Because there are speed cameras ahead.After passing the speed camera, it was a straight downhill section.This mountain road is the same no matter whether it is near Babao or Xiaofu. There is almost no human habitation before rushing into the Yanzhong area.However, Xiao Zi just said softly:

"Again, follow everyone's speed! In broad daylight, if you rush too fast, it will bring too much pressure to other cars." I looked at my watch.Thirty-two minutes have passed since the departure of "Konya S&R".Although there is no way to reach the valley in thirty minutes, but compared to my old car, this speed is already very satisfactory. Although it is said to follow everyone's speed, the speed is still maintained at about 100 kilometers per hour. "Hurry up!" Hearing what Xiao Zi said, I quickly hugged the entire seat back with both hands.Xiao Zi backed the car into second gear and rushed through the hairpin bend in one breath.The sudden deceleration almost caused me to fly out.Immediately after cornering, shift to third gear again.There are still some not so big bends, so I just use the third gear and run all the way forward.

Saw the house.We finally entered the Yanaka area. "Xiao Azusa, do you know where the Yamanaka Shrine is?" "How could I know!" That's right.Now the problem is big.How embarrassing it is to get into the valley without knowing the way.I thought that as long as I got here, I would be safe, but I didn't expect to make a big joke at the last moment, because I didn't know where the Hachiman Shrine was.Although when I went to Sakura's house last time, I asked for the general direction... The coupe rolls down the mountain road.Although the houses are sparsely populated, there are still people living in them, so Xiao Zi's speed has also slowed down significantly.

"So what? Which direction are you going next?" "..." Why don't you just call and ask Sakura Keji!I was about to do this when I caught a glimpse of the white flag out of the corner of my eye.correct!Just follow the flags to find the shrine on the mountain.My voice couldn't help but get louder: "Right, right. Isn't there a flag on the right?" "Huh? Oh, that one!" "Just drive in that direction!" Although Xiao Zi frowned, she still found an appropriate way to turn right. The roads in the village twist and turn along the fields, and there is no way to rush straight to the destination all at once.But fortunately, we didn't get lost in a dead end, and the car stopped intact in front of the stone steps of Hachiman Shrine.

I unbuckled my seat belt and rushed out. "Wait a moment!" Xiao Zi's voice came from the car.I slammed on the brakes.Sitting in the driver's seat, Xiao Azusa asked me: "Then what am I going to do next?" oops!I completely forgot about it. "I'm sorry that you lost your job in the store, you can go back." "Then how do you go back later?" "Take the bus! Anyway, if you go back, there is no need to rush." Xiao Zi sighed. "...It's all right! Anyway, I've come so far away, so I'll wait for you here!" "But I don't know when I'll be back!"

"It doesn't matter." And I don't know if I will be able to come back—I wanted to answer this sentence, but after thinking about it, let it go.It sounds so inauspicious.So I just said "Bad!" and walked forward, only to be stopped again. "Wait a moment!" "what happened again?" When I turned around, I saw a smile on Xiao Zi's face. "Brother, you're alive again!" I politely smiled back, and she turned and ran up the stone steps without answering.
