Ye Gengyi quickly sorted out the investigation direction of the incident.

Change to ten minutes ago, when I didn't see that look.

He will definitely use this as a reason to revisit the suggestion to bring Kudo Shinichi back to Mihua Town for treatment as soon as possible.

But now... the case is not important anymore, he needs to confirm the identity of the other party, and at this moment, who is hiding in the forest and peeping here.

"In other words, Makoto Yada really disappeared for half a year..."

Beside him, Hattori Heiji was still thinking about the identity of the person who sent him the letter, and Kudo Shinichi's wrong reasoning.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman in her early 40s, wearing rimless glasses, professional attire, and bun hair, stepped on high-heeled shoes that made a 'click' sound, and came here for no reason. in the room.

See everyone's doubts.

Her eyes lingered on Mori Kogoro, Ha Genichi and Kudo Shinichi successively for a while, her lips with bright lipstick slightly curled up, and she introduced herself:

"I'm Kawachi Fukasato, a reporter from Dongdu Newspaper. Forgive me for coming uninvited, but...you don't seem to be very clear about the motive of the village head's suicide."

Why do newspaper reporters come here?

Hmm... It's been enough time since this Kudo Shinichi was picked up from the lake to drive to the village.

In terms of conspiracy theory, it is not ruled out that people who don't like Kudo Shinichi want to expose the other party's amnesia.

Ye Gengyi walked a few steps forward, came to the newspaper reporter, checked the signal wave frequency on the opponent's body at close range, and asked at the same time:

"Could you please explain in detail?"

"Oh, of course..."

Kawachi Fukasato said: "A year ago, Kudo Shinichi's reasoning was that the former village head, Hihara Takitoku, was diagnosed with cancer during a physical examination in the hospital, so he gave up on himself and finally broke down emotionally and killed his wife. He also committed suicide by jumping off the building."

"Is there any problem with this?" Hattori Heiji frowned and said, "You don't mean to say that cancer is fake?"

"That's right. I was right, but the cancer is not fake, but it is a benign tumor that can be cured. It can be cured with surgery. I heard that the village chief was very happy when he heard the news..."

The female newspaper reporter showed an expression of "discovering big news", and said with a "hehe" smile: "Do you think such a person would choose to commit suicide?"

"how so?!"

When everyone heard this answer, they were more or less puzzled and astonished.

A suspicious point that can be thought of casually, but it turned out to be a fatal reasoning flaw on Kudo Shinichi's side?

Things are out of the ordinary, and don't even need too much scrutiny...

Assuming that was all there was to it, it was impossible for the police to adopt Kudo Shinichi's reasoning when the clues were so obvious.

"Hey! Kudo, what the **** is going on!"

Hattori Heiji was very excited, grabbed Kudo Shinichi's shoulder and kept shaking it.

He couldn't believe that the other party would make such a stupid reasoning.

"I don't know, I really can't remember anything." Kudo Shinichi covered his head with a particularly gloomy expression.

"Now I understand why this kid is not welcomed by the villagers." Mori Kogoro curled his lips.

"That's right," the female newspaper reporter's tone was full of amusement: "After all, in the eyes of the villagers, Kudo Shinichi is a **** who can neither solve the case nor embarrass the reputation of the village chief."

"We'll talk about Kudo Shinichi's name later. But since everyone thinks there's something wrong with the case, won't anyone want to track down the real murderer in a year's time?"

Ye Geng stopped the topic of condemnation, looked at the short-haired girl, and said, "With all due respect...it doesn't seem like the people here will be influenced by Kudo Shinichi's fame, or your hatred for Kudo Shinichi , and the respect for the Japanese village head, is it just on the surface? In fact, you don’t intend to find the real murderer?"

"Yes, yes..."

Yuan Shan and Ye Xisi were terrified, and their voices trembled: "If the village chief didn't commit suicide, where is the murderer hiding?"

Talking about this matter, the short-haired girl trembled all over, couldn't help lowering her head, and her voice became extremely low: "That's because we are all guessing that maybe the one who killed the village chief and his wife in Japan was the one who lived in the forest. That guy..."

"Death God?" Ye Gengyi read out the name.

"Ah... you, how do you know?!" The short-haired girl instinctively took half a step back.

"Shira God? Then what?" Hattori Heiji was even more puzzled.

"That's a story that the village has passed down a long time ago."

Police officer Chengshan explained: "When I was very young, I also heard from my elders that you must not stare into each other's eyes when you meet in the forest, otherwise you will bring bad luck and be taken away by the God of Death."

when you were a child

Is the story at least thirty or forty years ago? Can't look directly into the eyes... Well, although it feels very mysterious, and I can't be sure if it is the "Death Luo God" hiding in the forest and peeping here, but if I can find it, it is best to use a sneak attack from behind to solve the problem quickly. Strategy…

Ye Gengyi thought about it, and then asked: "Since a murder case is involved, is the death **** a rumor or is there any basis for it?"

Mori Kogoro looked helpless, "Oh! Zengichi, how could such a folktale be true?"

"It's just..."

Hattori Heiji looked at his childhood sweetheart who ran to warm up with Mao Lilan when he heard the supernatural rumors, "Why are you afraid of becoming like this?"

"But…"

Mao Lilan looked sideways in the direction of the balcony.

From the very beginning, she really felt that someone was standing in the shadow of the forest...

"Xiao Lan?" Yuan Shan and Ye's expressions were a little stiff, "You, what are you looking at?"

"No, nothing." Mao Lilan shook his head.

"Hey, let me tell you guys..."

Hattori Heiji was very helpless, and was about to explain the scientific view, when Ye Gengyi took over the topic and said: "Although the rumors will become more and more outrageous according to time and the scope of spread, the possibility of artificial pretense is not ruled out."

"Indeed, the legend of the **** of death is just a folk tale of ghosts and monsters, but you'd better not be careless and run into the forest to take risks."

Police officer Chengshan reminded: "Because 9 years ago, a missing girl was found dead inside."

"Oh, so that thing is true, I have heard of it."

The female newspaper reporter added: "At that time, it seemed that all the villagers were mobilized and ran to the forest to search for it. For three days in a row, no trace was found. Then the girl's father also disappeared, and then two days later, everyone was in the lake. found the drowned body of the girl in ... I remember ..."

She thought for a moment, then muttered, "That girl seems to be called Yada~lightnovelpub.net~Yada or something..."

"That girl's surname is also Yada?" Hattori Heiji grasped the key point, "What's the relationship between her and Yada Makoto?"

"She is Chengren's younger sister." The short-haired girl said, "It was also that day that Chengren's father disappeared like that."

"Hey, why is it getting more and more outrageous."

Mori Kogoro couldn't help but said: "Even if someone is missing, you can't conclude that it's that or something...Shira God did it?"

That's right, if it was done by 'Reaper', everything would be much more reasonable... Ye Gengyi commented in his heart, looked at the girl with short hair, and asked:

"So, you think that since father and daughter are in danger in the forest, maybe Makoto Yada is also in danger, right?"
