A group of three walked on the way to Hutian's house.

Hattori Heiji briefly recounted the incident mentioned by Tatsuo Weishi during breakfast, and wanted to hear Ye Gengichi's opinion:

"Sagaichi...do you think Officer Kai's death was an accident?"

"No." Ye Gengyi said.

"Eh? Really," Hattori Heiji's eyes lit up, "Sagaichi-san, what did you find!"

After he finished asking, he was startled again.

No, a few minutes ago, didn't Brother Gengyi say, 'It's been so many years, the traces are long gone'?

"route."

Ye Gengyi said: "Matsumoto's administrator's notebook records that Kai Gento died after the festival six years ago, and he was not elected as the Yabusame shooter that year."

"Um…"

Hattori Heiji nodded, "It is said that he missed the target during the competition, but the result can still participate in the rematch the next day, but he disappeared like that that night..."

"Isn't that obvious? Calculating the distance from the ceremony site to the shooting range to Hutian's house, for the next day's competition, the last place he should go is next to the cliff where he fell." Ye Gengyi said.

This is true. When I came here, I found that the canopy of this road is very low. Unless someone pruned the branches and leaves of the trees on this path 6 years ago, it would not be convenient to come here on horseback and then go around Hutian’s house. …

Hattori Heiji was distracted in thinking, seeing that Ye Gengichi didn't speak like this, he suddenly asked in doubt: "Uh...Brother Gengichi, is there any more?"

"What?" Ye Geng asked.

"It's just a clue or evidence..."

Hattori Heiji gave an example: "Without that, we wouldn't be able to prove that Officer Kai's death was not an accident, right?"

He also planned to compare the clues, if he could find out the common ground with Longwei Kangsi, wouldn't his commission be resolved smoothly?

As a result, I heard Ye Gengyi say:

"No evidence."

"Eh???" Hattori Heiji was a little confused.

Yuan Shan and Ye originally thought that they could not join the conversation between the two, so they kept silent all the time, but they were stunned when they saw Heiji, and immediately cast a surprised look.

no, no proof...

Hattori Heiji came back to his senses, a little anxious: "Please! Brother Genichi, if there is no evidence, what you just said can't be regarded as reasoning at all!"

"Your previous question was 'Do you think Officer Kai's death was an accident', but after seeing the scene, I don't think he died by accident."

Ye Geng summed up the conversation between the two before, and then calmly asked, "Is there a problem?"

Ah, this... seems to be no problem...

Hattori Heiji scratched his head, "However, if there is no evidence, others can also say that Officer Kai missed the target, so he couldn't stand the blow and jumped off the cliff."

"That's not important." Ye Gengyi said.

"Ah? What..." Hattori Heiji didn't understand.

"You are a detective, and you just debated with me just now in order to get the truth, but the people in the village are different..."

Ye Gengyi said: "People have been dead for 6 years, instead of 1 week and 1 month. Non-participants will not be so persistent in refuting. For them, Kaixuan is already a deceased person. Hearing After the 'homicide', we will be eager to find the murderer, after all, no one wants to live with the murderer forever."

"Makes sense."

Hattori Heiji blinked, and added: "Especially recently, Koji Tatsuo died. Regardless of whether the two incidents are related or not, we only need to investigate the two cases together, and the real murderer will definitely feel guilty. Subconsciously paying attention to us."

"It's also possible that the murderer has strong willpower and will not expose any flaws."

Ye Geng poured cold water on it, looked at the Hutian family's villa not far away, and reminded: "Okay, put away the excitement on your face."

"Um…"

Hattori Heiji took a deep breath and adjusted his breathing.

…

Shigeji Torita is an obese man in his early 30s who doesn't pay much attention to his appearance.

The reason why Ye Gengichi, Hattori Heiji, and Toyama and Ye could recognize each other so easily was because as soon as they entered the yard, they saw Shigeji Torata sitting on a pony to clean up the soil on the shovel.

】

Hattori Heiji stepped forward, and after a brief self-introduction, he went straight to the point and asked about the centipede beside Yoshiro Torada who had suffered a tornado accident.

"I did see the centipede, but don't know anything else..."

Shigeji Torata put the shovel aside, "At first, my father and mother said that people from the Tatsuo family did it, but recently, didn't their family's Koji die too, as if a centipede was placed beside him .”

"Then, is there any relationship between your Hutian family and the Tatsuo family and the centipede?" Hattori Heiji asked.

"Probably not," Shigeji Torata hesitated for a moment, "But if it's a centipede pattern, I seem to have seen it in the festival."

The festival he mentioned refers to the event for the selection of Yabusame shooters.

At that time, the contestants in the village will wear armor made of plastic from the Warring States period.

With that said, Shigeji Torata brought a few people to the front of the main house, and opened the shoji door to show off the armor of the Torada family.

Ye Gengyi didn't know much about this, so he gave the time for the inquiry to the two of them.

Hattori Heiji poked his head and looked inside, and after confirming that there was no centipede pattern on the armor, he continued to ask:

"Then where did you see it at the festival?"

Shigeji Torata recalled for a moment: "Sorry, I can't remember it for a while..."

Yuan Shan and Ye thought for a while, then said, "If it's a dragonfly, I remember that some Warring States generals painted it on their helmets."

"Eh? Speaking of generals..." Shigeru Hutian looked at the three of them one by one, and said, "Besides you, there were other detectives who came to me to ask questions after talking with my father and mother not long ago. Same problem."

During breakfast, Tatsuo Yushi also said ~lightnovelpub.net~ I suspect that someone asked Tatsuo Koji about Police Officer Kai before he was killed...

Now, are those people coming to Hutian's house again?

Hattori Heiji frowned, "Detective? Are you sure it's a detective?"

"Yeah," Shigeji Torata said 'hmm', "They're from Tokyo, they're very famous...the last name is the same as a general..."

Tokyo? Very famous?

Hattori Heiji had a mustache detective in his mind, and guessed: "Could it be Mori?"

"Ah, yes, yes!"

Shigeji Torata hurriedly nodded, "The surname is Mori!"

Ye Gengyi: "..."

what's the situation? Why did the **** of plague come?
