Chapter 43 Section 7

I stepped on the ground carefully to see if there was anything wrong with the dead leaves and branches. Every two or three steps forward, check the surrounding situation to see if anyone is hiding in the woods. Even above, I don't forget to look up often to make sure there is nothing strange between the branches. My heart beat faster and faster, and my breathing gradually became difficult.Obviously, I decided to move forward on the top of the mountain just a second ago, but I regretted it the second I started to go downhill.If you are not careful, words of regret slip out of your mouth:

"It's better to pretend that you don't know anything and go back..." This is the first time in my life that I have stepped into such a terrifying space. I firmly believe that my conclusion is correct, Kiriko decided to murder Mubi in order to save her own life.Even her technique, I believe I can guess it pretty well.In order to reduce the fear in my heart, I began to chant like a sutra: "The feet are OK, the right is OK, the left is OK, the top is OK, forward. The feet are OK, the right is OK, the left is OK..." Tongzi has plenty of time. In the "City in the Valley" of this mountain, she spends her leisure time waiting for the partition to fall into the trap.As long as she doesn't return "The Middle Ages Called the Warring States Period and Xiaofu", she will have as much time as she wants.

So, what did Tongzi do during this time? I thought about it backwards, assuming that today I was being targeted by an inexplicable person, and assuming that I also decided to kill him, then, in that sparsely populated "Mid Valley City", what would I do if it was me ? I will do the trap. While I haven't actually killed anyone, the imagination always does.If I want to kill a person, but confront him head-on, I will also be in danger, because I don't know how the other party will fight back.In fact, Tongzi had already failed once. If he knew in advance that the other party would come, of course he would think of making a trap for him to jump into.

It is best to be a trap that can put the opponent to death in one shot.Because if the other party was only slightly injured, it might allow him to escape again.If he is allowed to escape, he may continue to live in his shadow again. "The feet are OK, the right is OK, the left is OK, the top is OK, go forward... Amitabha, God bless..." She must have dug a hole and filled it with bamboo arrows, right?Even if it fell and didn't die on the spot, it would be enough to plug it in for ten hours.Could she have also been a rockfall?If she got the poison, maybe she would stick the poison needle into the cork... After all, Tongzi also worked hard.Such a little knowledge of chemistry, she should have worked hard to collect it long ago!I couldn't laugh it off, thinking poison was out of the question.

In that case... I remembered the crying phone call from Keiko Watanabe.She said that she saw a person who looked like Tongzi and bought a rope at a hardware store furtively.It's the same day that Kiriko Sakura appeared in "Gendarme" and "Charing Cross", and possibly "March Hare". Watanabe was very afraid that Kiriko would put the rope around his neck, and I also thought that the possibility was not low. Now I see, that rope was obviously meant to be a trap... I plodded step by step, lowering my weight so I could react quickly no matter what happened.But going downhill in this position, my knees immediately screamed in protest. "...I would have brought a dog if I knew it earlier."

And it must be a military dog ​​trained to find traps. If I fell into a trap here now, no one would come to rescue me even if I shouted out my throat... No, no one would hear me at all!Here is the valley!Whether it is a cry for help or a scream, it is blocked by the mountain. "Ah! Isn't there still this magic weapon?" I take out my mobile phone.In case something really happens, you can call for help. But in the next second, I was dumbfounded and speechless.There is no signal at all!It's no wonder that there are often situations where the signal cannot be received on the mountain, and there is no need to set up a base station.

Kiriko Sakura is such a formidable character.She deliberately chose a place where not only the voice of distress could not be transmitted, but even the signal of the mobile phone could not be transmitted in. Now I can only smile wryly. The feet are OK, the right is OK, the left is OK, the top is OK, go forward. Suddenly, there seemed to be a gust of wind blowing.It turned out that I had already walked into the valley.Then we have to climb up again.I look at my watch, it has been an hour since I went up the mountain. I continued to tense my nerves and took the first step carefully. His eyes circled around.

Then, I saw that.
