"It's here!"

The agent of the real estate company, Mr. Manakura, stopped in front of a courtyard that was built one by one, and waved to Lin Xiuyi who was behind him.

"Ah... it looks really desolate!"

"Yes, it's been looking for new buyers since the suicide. However, until now, no one has been willing to buy here. So we've spent very little time taking care of it. , I brought you here without cleaning, it's really rude!"

"No, no, I'm the one who delays your work time and bothers you to bring me here. I should say that the rude person is me!"

Lin Xiuyi hurriedly replied to the other party.

"Hey, back then, this house was sold to Professor Noguchi through my hands. I didn't expect Professor Noguchi to end up with such a thing, what a pity!"

While sighing with emotion, Mr. Masakura pushed open the courtyard door and walked in with Lin Xiuyi. The signs for sale at the entrance of the courtyard have been washed away by the rain and have faded a little. At this time, a thick layer of fallen leaves has accumulated in the courtyard, and the flowerbed is full of weeds. It seems that no one has been here for a long time. look.

"It's a pity that such a large courtyard is abandoned like this!"

"Hey, Professor Noguchi finally decided to buy this place because he liked the layout of the courtyard. Now it's so sad to see the situation here!"

Lin Xiuyi stood in the courtyard to observe, then pointed to the house in front of him and asked:

"Can we go in and have a look?"

"sure!"

While speaking, Mr. Manakura took out an envelope, and then took out the key to the house from the envelope.

"It's been a long time since no one has been here, and it should still look like it was after Professor Noguchi's death!"

Mr. Manakura opened the door with the key, and a dull breath suddenly rushed towards his face. Indeed, as Mr. Manakura introduced, it does look like no one has been here for a long time.

"I'm so sorry, the breath inside is too turbid, I'd better open the window to ventilate before you go in!"

"Ah... No, don't bother, I just need to go in and take a look!"

As Lin Xiuyi said this, he squatted down and started to untie the laces on his shoes. Seeing this, Mr. Makura let Lin Xiuyi go.

After the two took off their shoes, they stepped on the floor of the room and walked into the interior of the house. This is an oversized one-story villa. The interior decoration looks a little old-fashioned, but it has a classic atmosphere. The overall look reveals a rustic and heavy style. There is not much furniture in the room, so it looks a little empty, and I don't know if some furniture has been disposed of.

"It looks really big inside! Such a big house, it must be hard to clean up!"

"That's true, but Professor Noguchi seems to have hired a lady to clean her room on a regular basis. Oh, yes! It seems that this lady was the one who discovered Professor Noguchi's death!"

"Oh...that's right! Did you know that Professor Noguchi died in that house?"

"It's the study, the house facing the courtyard. I'll take you there."

As Mr. Masakura said, he led Lin Xiuyi through the living room to a door. He hesitated for a moment, then gently pushed open the sliding doors on both sides for Lin Xiuyi.

After the door was opened, a spacious study came into view. This is a veritable study. The room is full of books, and many books are mixed with some paper. At a glance, you know that these books have been carefully read and not used for decoration.

Lin Xiuyi was about to lift his foot to enter the room, but suddenly noticed a burnt yellow mark on the tatami.

"This is where the carbon basin was placed!"

Mr. Masakura saw that Lin Xiuyi noticed the trace, and hurriedly explained to Lin Xiuyi.

"So where was Professor Noguchi lying there?"

"Is this, I don't know!"

Lin Xiu looked around at the furnishings in the study. Although there were books everywhere, they were all neatly arranged. It could be seen that the owner of the study was a very well-behaved person.

"May I ask what kind of people does Professor Noguchi come into contact with every day? How is his relationship with his neighbors?"

Lin Xiu turned around and asked Mr. Manakura, the real estate agent standing at the door again.

"I'm sorry, but I only met Professor Noguchi a few times during the real estate transaction! After that, I didn't have much contact with him except for the return visit of the client. But I think Professor Noguchi is a very kind old man. Although he is The University of Dongda asked the family, but he didn't speak at all. By the way, after he signed the sales contract, he also asked me what kind of gifts should be suitable for the neighbors. I feel that he is a A very kind and considerate old man!"

Mr. Manakura recalled the experience of interacting with Professor Noguchi little by little, and his expression couldn't help but feel a little more sad. It can be seen that he seems to miss this client of his own.

"Your evaluation of Professor Noguchi is really high. By the way, can I take the liberty to ask you about it. You just said that Professor Noguchi hired a lady to clean the place regularly. Do you know some of this lady? What's the situation?"

"Ah... I really don't know about this! I just met someone coming to clean the place during my return visit. At that time, Professor Noguchi and I were sitting in this study. I heard someone calling Professor Noguchi, Professor Noguchi. At that time, I sat by the window and let the other party in. Not long after that, I heard the sound of a vacuum cleaner coming from the window. At that time, Professor Noguchi came to me..."

"So you haven't seen the face of this cleaning staff?"

"No, but I can tell from the voice that it should be a woman who is not too old, and her voice sounds very gentle. But I don't know what else!"

"It's very good, you can recall so many details~lightnovelpub.net~ has helped me a lot! However, I still have a question to ask you, after the death of Professor Noguchi. Have the police asked you about Professor Noguchi?"

"I did, but it seemed that it was determined to be suicide at the time, so I just asked me a few questions and didn't come to me again..."

Lin Xiu nodded, and then according to the details the other party said, she sat in front of the window and looked at the courtyard entrance. It was indeed as Zhenkura said, you can see the situation beyond the courtyard entrance.

"It seems that I still have to go to the police officer in charge of this case and ask about the situation!"

Lin Xiu thought about it, then stood up from the tatami.
