Chapter 65 second quarter

The wind has stopped, but the temperature is very low and the weather is very cold. The exhaled air turns into water vapor and disappears. The mountains surrounding the Sendai Plain are pale and white. Compared with Tokyo, winter in the Northeast comes one month earlier. . As soon as we passed the Hirose River and started to climb the slope of Otemon Gate, the white walls of Aoba Ancient Castle gleamed in the sunlight. "Recently we don't call it Aoba Castle, but Sendai Castle." Iseki explained to Yabe and Ijuin while walking side by side. Not even a single tourist, only children were seen, maybe the ancient city of Aoba is not a tourist attraction.

As soon as I climbed to the top of the slope, my field of vision suddenly widened. There may be no shelter in front, so the wind is relatively strong. Right now is the winding Hirose River, and in front of the Hirose River is the north-south city street of Sendai. "Sendai City..." Jingguan continued, looking at the streets of Sendai. "It was built by Date Masamune. The people of Sendai are proud of being invincible. Maybe it's because they haven't been baptized by war even once, so maybe they can maintain the current appearance." Iseki said with a smile. However, Yabe didn't even have a smile on his face, because he wasn't listening to Iseki's explanation at all.

"At present, I still don't understand why a castle should be built in such a place?" Jingguan said. "Geographically speaking, there are no obstacles here. If the enemy..." "Mr. Iseki." Yabe interrupted Iseki's conversation suddenly, and Yabe's expression was very serious, "We didn't come here to listen to your explanation of the scenery." "What?..." At that moment, Jingguan's face suddenly collapsed, but he immediately broke into a smile. "I think so too." Iseki said in a dry voice. "Because the busy criminal police came to Sendai to look at the scenery, it is a bit unreasonable, not to mention that this kind of place is not attractive, and the statue of the Date politician is also very vulgar."

Iseki coughed lightly and kicked the dirt with the tip of his shoe. "What exactly do you want to talk to me about?" "It happened half a month ago." Yabe said in a calm tone, and lit a cigarette. "I want to talk to you again about the death of the Tajima couple. "It's best to talk about this kind of thing in a place where no one is around, so I asked you to bring us here, because we can talk freely without the interference of others." "Isn't that incident already closed?" Jing Guan said, frowning impatiently. "I've already told the police everything I know, what do you want me to say?"

"No, that incident has not been closed, so I came to you again, please recall that incident again." "I do not understand what you mean." "That incident was closed as a suicide, and the newspaper reported it that way. However, that incident was not a suicide, but a homicide. The Tajima and his wife were poisoned to death. The murderer is still at large and has not been arrested. That's why I Said that the case is not closed yet." The wind was a little stronger again, the cigarette in Yabe's hand flew out small sparks, turned into a cloud of blue smoke and disappeared, Iseki coughed lightly as if choking.

"Are you saying I killed those two?" Iseki stared at Yabe, and Yabe said without changing his face: "Yes. You killed those two people."
