Chapter 45 Section 1

August 19, 2004 (Thursday) Later, Sakura Keji did remit the money into my account.I also received remuneration from Baidi, but most of them were given to Banping. It just rained outside.It hasn't rained for a long time recently. I planted myself deep in the chair and looked out the window.Although it is said to be summer rain, it is not that kind of thunderstorm, but the sound of quiet rain.The city looked even quieter than usual. As long as I close my eyes, I will think of what I saw in Seongsan that day.It was a gray hat. The inside of the hat was stickily stained with another color.The color overlaid on gray is more like black than red.In that blackness, I seem to see a little bit of white fragments.

Judging by the extent to which the hat was dyed black, I knew I was late. Now that everything has happened, there is nothing to be done.If it is happening right in front of you, you can find a way to stop it, but everything has already happened, and there is nothing to stop it. So I chose the path of making the mission a success. "..." I looked at the bankbook opened under the name "Konya S&R". The reason why I took the initiative to show up was not for the convenience of asking for money, nor was it to win the trust of Yu Tongzi.It's because Tongzi may have been monitoring my every move somewhere, and she may know from others that I am investigating her affairs. In this case, it is necessary for me to express my intention first.

I turned my eyes back to the rainy street and muttered to myself: "I don't see anything, I don't know anything..." I have to make Kiriko believe that.If Kiriko thinks that Konya Choichiro will threaten her life, like the wall blocking the way of Kiriko Sakura, then I will be in trouble. In any case, Tongzi seems to have contacted Qieer according to my request. But that doesn't mean Tongzi believes what I say.So, I've been hiding my pocketknife in my pocket lately. No matter who it is, it is possible to suffer inexplicable attacks.It is very human to resist in order to protect ourselves.

Just like a farmer slashing at an invader with a knife. Like a patient getting an injection. Just like Konya Changichiro didn't hesitate at all when he sent the wild dog to the clinic. Just like Kiriko Sakura set a trap for Ryotaro Mabi to jump into. So, I have to protect myself too. I also thought about calling the police.But I don't have any evidence.Not even a dead body was seen.The only thing I saw was a hat stained with blood. After that, after confirming that Kiriko had left that place, I went to "Shiroyama" in the valley again.The result was nothing.Only the hot weather was similar to that day, and other than that, let alone murder weapons, traps, and caves, there was no trace of whether anyone lived there.The only harvest is that after climbing the trees near "Yanaka Castle", I found that I can see the vicinity of Sakura's house from there.As long as you have a pair of binoculars, you can monitor Sakura's house from there. Kiriko probably uses this method to determine whether the partition is really hooked!reward?How can there be any gain?I just saw a tree there.

Because of this, I can finally feel a little more at ease.A witness who can't even tell where the body is buried should not pose a threat to Tongzi! But…… In the depths of my heart, the uneasiness that could not be erased slowly settled down.Thinking about whether Tongzi really thought so, she felt that the knife in her pocket was too small and not worth relying on at all. It would be great if all of these were me thinking too much, if the blood on the hat was just a misjudgment of my eyes, and if the wall is still harassing Kiriko, that would be great.However, according to the results of my follow-up investigation, no one returned to the hotel where Mabuka stayed at the alias Kamate.

It is too late to say such things now--knowingly so, but I can't help blurting out: "How nice it would be if you were just looking for a dog." That being said, it is actually not the case. rain. Tongzi is also very disturbed now!How much does that detective know... This alone is enough to make her sleepless! Will the rain wash out the things buried in a corner of the mountain in the "City of the Valley"... This will also make her unable to eat! Every time it rains, I also start to feel uneasy. If what was buried in the ground should come out, the balance of terror between us would collapse.Because Tongzi doesn't want to lose anything because of the partition!

I don't think I'll be carrying a knife with me for a long time. How about using this reward to buy a watchdog!
