Edo Traveler

v5 Chapter 17: Tama River

Part of the content and ideas come from the original works and film and television works of the Great Buddha Ridge and the Amagi Gorge Mystery, and Yuko Tanaka is so beautiful!

If you can run, the monk can't run to the temple. The feudal master wants to take you, but can't he take you? What king power does not go to the countryside is that the cost of going to the countryside is too high, as long as you want to go to the countryside, it is like playing with you.

If a person runs away, the greatest probability is to run back to his hometown!

It's that simple. Even in 9102, many people went to their hometowns if something went wrong. It is convenient to hide, but also to obtain living materials. Let alone these days, the exodus is cheap, and many people still pay attention to the roots of a fallen leaf. Since the woman hooked up with the Shibingbei, there was a high probability that she would go to the Shibingbei's hometown to settle down.

The reason why the city guard didn't leave was also very simple. If he ran away immediately, he would immediately suspect him. If he stayed here for a few months, things would calm down. In other words, the heat of the incident has subsided and it has become an unsolved case, and you can retire at the age of forty.

Retiring at the age of 40 would be a joke in later generations, but with the current average life expectancy of 35 years old, a samurai would call himself an old man at the age of 40, and there are many people who give up the position of monk governor. Forty is a hurdle. I don't know how many people can't cross this hurdle.

If you do this, the city guard will not arouse people's suspicion, and it can disappear from people's sight normally. Go back to my hometown and use the more than one hundred taels of gold to buy some land and become a wealthy farmer. There are still wives and hot Kangtou, and the small days can definitely be passed on.

"Immediately open the official post, choose two capable ones, go to Tama County, Wuzhou, and find the hometown of that fellow!" Zhuliu is a resolute and resolute person. Since this case has been handled, it must be done to the end.

"Who knows where everyone's hometown is?" Tadaemon asked the special industry workers again.

The women looked at each other left and right, and they all shook their heads to indicate that they didn't know. They are all retired from the high-end buildings, the kind of old and declining ones. It's not the kind of people who have been trained together since they were young, and have grown up together.

"Then where was she originally!"

Shuroku then asked, a woman said the name of a Fengyue place. What's more to say? Go straight to the place's mother, Sangyou, and the owner of the shop. I don't believe that there is no sales paper from that year.

If there is a sales document, everything is easy to say. Sure enough, the officer stared, and they sent everyone's record papers over there. She is the daughter of a farm in the Soshu Mifune area. She was in debt due to natural disasters and was eventually sold to Edo by human traffickers. Although his parents may be gone, Haolai knew a hometown and immediately sent someone to look for it.

Two roads run side by side, you can't catch one person if you don't believe it!

…………………………

Turning the clock three days ago, the shogunate’s magistrate set up at Shendaiji received an urgent report from the people to rule, and found a female body on the Tama River south of Shendaiji.

It is different from the later generations where Shendaiji is considered to be the Tokyo metropolitan area and is quite prosperous. Today's Shenda Temple, and the surrounding area, are vast rural fields and some small hills. The place above can be called a simple folklore, and there have been no major cases for many years.

Let alone murder, there are not even a few thefts!

Coming here to serve as a magistrate has the benefits of a deep temple, and there is nothing to worry about. Although it is not good enough, there is nothing wrong with it. It's good to be a **** and foolish officer when you are together.

But now that there is a murder case and it is reported to the official, it is annoying. The generation official took a few subordinates and hurried to see that the body had been salvaged by nearby villagers. Depending on the situation, it is obvious that he died not long ago. After a simple check, the acting officer discovered that the woman was actually about five or six months pregnant.

Good guy, big case, one corpse and two lives!

In this way, the generation official did not dare to neglect. On the one hand, he reported the news of such a vicious case, and on the other hand, he mobilized the villagers on the left and right to identify the corpse.

The nearby villagers didn't know each other, but there was only one person in this place. Everyone knew each other. It is very unlikely to want to cheat or something.

So the acting officer expanded the search to let the villagers on the left and right, two miles from the front and back to identify. Finally got a clue that could not be said to be a clue.

Workers picking ice in the upper reaches of the Tama River have seen this woman!

Nowadays, most of the ice blocks are mined in winter and transported to caves on the top of mountains or cellars in cities for preservation. For easy use in summer. It's a pretty good business. In summer, rich people are happy to spend money to buy ice cubes in order to cool off the heat.

So while the winter is still there, the upper reaches of the Tama River can still fetch ice, and the workers are naturally hardworking day and night. After all, when the ice is stored until summer, at least 50% of it has melted. It takes more ~lightnovelpub.net~ to save more.

According to their confession, the woman acted with a young man in her twenties. And the place they saw was in the upper reaches of the Tama River, which was more than five miles away from Shendaiji.

Upon hearing this, the acting official was overjoyed and very happy. Five miles out, then it's not my jurisdiction. Meizizi, report it quickly. A homicide occurred outside of his jurisdiction. He has no authority to investigate overseas matters. Please coordinate with Shangguan.

Of course, in order to prevent any excuses, the acting official immediately pulled a few carts of ice over and saved the woman's body. In addition, the weather is still not hot, and when Edo dispatches personnel to investigate, there will be no problems with the corpse.

The rest is nothing to do with me!

Since it was not an urgent matter of military affairs, the memorial report of the acting official took a day to go from the Shenda Temple to the enlistment and enlistment of the commanding officers. I think I am in charge of finances, how can I handle homicides, I think I will continue to report it.

The old Naka Mizuno is thinking about building the Edo Tianshu, while Abe Masahiro is holding back the water, thinking about killing Mizuno. Both of them didn't care, and they were sent directly to the head of the Edo Town Minister. As the penmanship practiced by Zhumachi, you quickly send someone to Shendaiji Temple to check it out.

The newly appointed Edo Minami Town was called Ikeda Yoshikata. He received this hot potato and just wanted to throw it away. As a temporarily promoted Qiben, he has never done anything to try and settle a case. How could he handle such a big case? After thinking about a little bit in his mind, he thought that he still had a big baby under his command, so he wrote a text immediately, and those who can do more work.

"My lord! Ikeda-sama came over and said that there was a murder case and you need to handle it together!" The little official looked at Zhuliu's face, for fear that Zhuliu who was in the process of finding the case would be unhappy.
