Chapter 39 Chapter Fourteen

The boss completely upholds the attitude of calming down the matter, and has always promised that as the boss, he will be responsible for dealing with the aftermath. He asked us to go back to our rooms and rest, and told us not to make a big deal out of it.Kono and I felt that there was no need to bear so much disgust and insisted on participating in the follow-up of this incident, and decided to go back to my room for the time being. For me, I'm most worried about the peeping device being discovered.Even so, there was no way I could remove it in broad daylight. "It doesn't matter, you can see what they are doing from here."

Ignoring my worries, Kono took off the coat covering it and looked in the mirror again. "What an ingenious mechanism. Here, look, the boss's stinky face is clearly visible." Helpless, I had no choice but to go forward and watch together.Indeed, the fat face of the boss was enlarged to occupy a third of the mirror, and the two thick lips opened and closed, as if talking about something. As I said before, the scenery in the peeping mirror is like an underwater world, and the scenery is cloudy and ambiguous, thus adding an indescribably weird atmosphere.In addition, I haven't been able to get rid of the memory that made me shudder last night. I always feel that the boss's face reflected on the mirror looks like a leper's face, and it seems that he will suddenly bleed, so I hardly dare to face it.

"What do you think?" After a while, Kono raised his head, "Suppose that geisha named Nagayoshi really disappeared, wouldn't the guest in Room 11 be the most suspicious? I know those two people stayed here four or five days ago. Here, they don’t go out often, although sometimes they order geisha, but they are never loud, quiet, don’t know what they are doing, they don’t look like tourists at all.” "Even if they are suspicious, there is no point in killing the local geisha. Besides, if they really killed them, where can they hide the body?" talk. "Perhaps thrown into the lake, or...how big are their suitcases?"

I was shocked, but I had to answer, so I had to say, "It's the largest ordinary suitcase." After confirming this, Kono looked into my eyes as if conveying some kind of message secretly through his eyes.Needless to say, he, like me, had one thing in mind.We could only look at each other silently, because after all, what passed between our eyes was just a very terrible imagination, and we really didn't have the courage to put this guess into words. "However, ordinary suitcases really can't hold one person." Not long after, Kono's almost transparent lower eyelids trembled like a spasm.

"Can you stop talking about it? It's not even certain who killed—no, whether there was a murder." "Although you said that, you also associate the two things together like me, right?" We fell silent again. However, the bloodiest guess is that the body was split in two and packed into two separate suitcases.Perhaps it is possible to dispose of dead bodies in the showers of the baths without anyone noticing.If you are in the shower, no matter how much blood you bleed, it will flow directly into the lake.But, were they really there to cut Changji's body in half?Thinking of this, I felt a burning pain in my back as if I had been hit by an axe.What instrument did they use to cut up the corpse?Was the murder weapon prepared in advance?Or steal an ax from the yard?

Perhaps one of them was standing at the door to watch the wind, and the other was in the shower, facing Yeyan's female corpse, and swung his ax high. Dear readers, please don't laugh at my nervous imagination. Looking back afterwards, although it was unbelievable, the bloody scene at that time was indeed unfolding before my eyes vividly. By that afternoon, things were becoming clearer.The Nakamura family searched for Changji through various channels, but her whereabouts are still unknown.In addition to the inspections by the village police station, the chief of the police station and the criminal police of the small town at the foot of the mountain also came to the lakeside kiosk one after another to inquire about the case at the counter.The news of the homicide spread quickly in the village, and the hotel was crowded with people watching the scene.Although the boss spent a lot of effort to conceal it, the Hupanting murder case still caused a lot of trouble in the local area.

Needless to say, Kono and I, as the first discoverers of the murder case, were the first to be severely interrogated.First, Kono described in detail how the blood was found.Then, I was called to the director and repeated what Kono had said. After the interrogation, the director seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked, "What did you go to the bathing place for? I heard that the hot water was not even ready at that time. Why did you go there?" I was taken aback, and was immediately speechless.
