Chapter 8 Part VII

Tian Suo Chongxi was drinking quietly, and the maid poured the wine for him. With silver hair, a dignified and ruddy face, and a burly body, he doesn't look like a sixty-five-year-old at all. Another maid is carrying the tableware used by the guests on the table. The maid with the jug in her hand heard footsteps and looked back. Maid: Maybe the lady is here. Sachiko: Dad. Tiansuo looked towards the garden. Sachiko and Kawaga appeared in the bushes together. Sachiko: I came with Yingliang. Tasho: Oh, come in. Hehe: Excuse me. The two take off their shoes and get on. Maid: Here you are.

Straighten your shoes. Sachiko and He sat down. Tiansuo: What would you two like to eat?I just ate it. Sachiko: I am so hungry.Yingliang, what do you eat? Hehe: How about something to eat? Tian Suo; It is said that roast pheasant is the famous dish of this restaurant. Sachiko: I'll just eat this. He He: Give me a copy too. Maid: Yes. The maids stand back. He He: (bows again) Jiu Shu greets you. Tian Suo: Where, where, I, the support president, should have visited you more often, but I was too busy to spare time. Sachiko: Dad, who are the guests today? Tian Suo: There are colleagues in the financial sector, and the party's general affairs bureau chief.

Sachiko: Let's talk about money again! Tasho: (no answer) Kazuha, how is your work going? He He: There is some progress. Tiansuo: I heard that you are going to compose a big piece of music? He He: I want to try to publish it before going to the United States this fall. Tiansuo: Oh, do it well, I will help you in whatever I can do. Hehe: Yes. Tiansuo: However, you will be troublesome enough in the future. He He looked at Tiansuo. Tian Suo: The tree attracts the wind... Someone will definitely pull your hind legs, so be careful.Nowadays, we know people and face but not heart. Some people shake your hand affectionately on the surface, but secretly want to step on your foot hard.You know, if

This is such a world today. Sachiko: Dad, the worlds of politicians and artists are different. He He: (bluntly) No, they are all the same human society, so there will not be much difference. Tiansuo: Huh? Sachiko also looked at Kazuya. He He: There is only one difference, (categorically) that is, if we make achievements, we will stand out. 98 Sangu Line Futamiura Station Imanishi walked out of the station. Just like when I went to Sanyin in Northeast China, I was carrying that worn-out small handbag in my hand. subtitle: From Tokyo, take the Shinkansen ①, transfer to the Kansai Line at Nagoya, broker the Sekansen, and arrive at Futamiura Station in Ise City.

① Newly built high-speed railway.A self-funded trip for a vacation. There is a group of large cars for group sightseeing parked in front of the station. As Imanishi was walking, he heard the sound of footsteps. Imanishi looked up at the signboard. Then walk in. The open book. Current address: Emi Town, Okayama Prefecture Occupation: Grocer Name: Kenichi Miki Neat and straight font. Imanishi looked at it with infinite emotion for a while, and then put the store book on the table. Opposite is the boss with a disturbed expression.Cheng Jiang, the maid standing next to him, seemed to be a capable person, her cheeks were flushed.

Imanishi: At first you thought he was from the Northeast, right? Chengjiang: Yes, he spoke with a local accent. Imam: He came here in June, what time did he come? Chengjiang: It's already night. Imanishi: At night? Chengjiang: We asked him if he had dinner, and he said he hadn't, so we prepared it for him. Imamishi: Did he go out after dinner? Chengjiang: No, he said he was too tired and fell asleep after calling a masseur for a massage. Imanishi: Did no one come to look for the land? Chengjiang: No, no one has been here. Imanishi: What about June 20th? Chengjiang: (Recalling) I went out after breakfast and came back in the evening.I heard from him that he was going to visit the inner and outer palaces, and he didn't come back until he turned to Toba.

Imamishi: You went all the way to Toba? Chengjiang: Yes. Imam: How did he look when he came back? Chengjiang: (Contemplating) Is this... Lingxi: Didn't he say who he met on the road? Chengjiang: (I'm thinking about it, but I can't think of it) Imamishi: That night, Miki also spent the night here, right? Chengjiang: Yes. Imamishi: Is there anything else going on tonight? Chengjiang: I went to see a movie. Imamishi: Movie? Chengjiang: He felt lonely and wanted to go to the movies.Also asked if there was a movie theater nearby, we told him. Boss: (interrupting) Which company did you tell?

Chengjiang: I thought it was better recently, so I told him to go to the light seat. Imam: When did you come back? Chengjiang: I remember coming back not too late. Imamishi: No one has come to look for him since he came back, and no one has hung up on him? Chengjiang: Yes. Imanishi: What about the 21st? Deng Jiang: That morning, he was supposed to come back by the 9:20 train, so we brought him breakfast at 8:00.But he suddenly changed his plan and said he would stay until evening. Imamishi: Sudden change of plan? Chengjiang: Yes. Imamishi: So, you didn't go anywhere until evening?

Chengjiang: No, I went out after noon. Imam: Where are you going? Chengjiang: Go to the movies. Imamishi: Watching a movie? Chengjiang: Yes, it is the same as yesterday, going to Guangzao. Imamishi: So, watch the movie you saw last night again? 101 Guangza Manager's Office An old-fashioned electric fan was spinning with a rattling sound. The sound of dialogue and music from the movie being shown can be faintly heard. Imai faced the manager and took notes in his notebook. Imanishi: Is it the release of "Tone's Morning Mist" and "Men's Town"? Manager: Yes, it is a two-part movie. (Calling through the drawer rustlingly) Hey, Mie, some cold drink.

Imamishi: No, you’re welcome. Manager: I found it, I found it... (Take out two movie posters) This is "Morning Mist" and this is "Men's Street", with the outline of the story on it. Imamishi: Thank you... (take it and read it) Oh, and the cast list. Manager: All actors who have lines are listed. Today West.You can see the movie just by going to the Tokyo head office, right? Manager: Yes, after the national release, if it is no longer needed, it will be sent to the warehouse of the Tokyo head office... (Suddenly showing interest) What does this have to do with the case?

Imamishi: No, it’s just for reference. Imano hurried out. There was a ray of light, a trace of joy appeared on his face, and his steps were brisk. Imanishi walked on the sun-baked streets. He stopped suddenly and hurried back to the cinema. 103 Ditto Manager's Office The manager is flipping through the ledger. Imai stood at the door of the room. Manager: It's June 21st. Imamishi: Yes, just to be on the safe side... Manager: Ah, it's Saturday. Imam: Huh? Manager: The film has been changed since the 21st. (Looks up) "The Storm in the North Sea" and "The Ghost of Oedo" will be released. Imam: Oh? (Can't help raising his voice) So, the films released on June 20th and 21st are different! Manager: (looks surprised) Yeah, it's different.Our cinema changes stills on weekends. The sound of dialogue and music from the movie being projected can be heard faintly. Imanishi stood upright in a daze, as if swallowing a stick. A portrait hangs on the front wall, looking down at Imanishi peacefully. A photo that has nothing to do with the colorful film Hagen around it—the solemn and dignified portrait of the former Minister of Finance Tasho Shigeki.
