Just as the Dugong Festival was about to begin, two figures quietly slipped into the house behind the shrine, where Shimabukuro Kimie lived, and where the longevity woman lived at the same time.
At this moment, because of the dugong celebration, the doors and windows in the house were closed, and there was no one else in the house.
And these two figures were Gin and Vodka, all dressed in black.
Looking at the old Japanese-style wooden sliding door of the house in front of him, Gin showed a sly smile: "It's really a place with simple folk customs."
With that said, he opened the sliding door of the house with his gloved hands and walked in, followed closely by Vodka.
There were no lights on in the room. To be on the safe side, Gin and Vodka did not turn on the lights. Instead, they took out their flashlights and began to search for something in the various drawers in the room.
The two of them searched very carefully. After checking a drawer, they would put the contents of the drawer back to their original places. Soon, the two of them found what they wanted in the cabinet drawer of the living room - "Come to buy".
Roster of number plates!
"It's really easy, boss!"
Seeing that he had found the roster, Vodka said excitedly, "The people on the island are really right, all the rosters from past years are here!"
"Don't worry about unimportant things."
Gin said coldly, "We only want the roster from last year."
As he said that, he reached out and picked up a roster and began to check the names written on it. Then, when he turned to a certain page, he showed a smile:
"Former Foreign Minister, Interior Minister, Bank of Japan President..."
Gin murmured a few words and put the roster in front of Vodka, "That's it! Take a photo of all the names on it!"
Vodka said "Okay" and took the list. He held a flashlight in one hand and a camera in the other. He began to take pictures of the names on the list page by page. Soon, all the names on the list were taken.
, then Vodka put the roster back and everything was restored.
"Brother, it's ready."
Vodka said, "Then let's leave quickly."
But Gin had no intention of leaving. Instead, he held a flashlight and illuminated the surrounding environment while showing a cold smile and said: "Speaking of which, this is also the residence of the legendary longevity woman. Hum.
, let me see what’s special about it!”
"But, brother."
Hearing Gin say this, Vodka felt a little strange, "This is that guy's mission, right? Why don't we call her here? Besides, is it okay to just leave her alone?"
"What's this? It's just a little girl."
Gin said coldly, "On such an isolated island, she can't do anything good. Anyway, since the man fled back to the United States last year, the fate of the two sisters has been determined."
The words were divided into two parts. At this time, Miyano Shiho, who was walking in the woods, looked at Gao Yuan in front of him, but kept a certain distance from Gao Yuan.
Starting from the shrine and slowly moving towards the seaside, Miyano Shiho was a little curious and didn't know what this man wanted to do.
However, after following him for so long, he didn't seem to notice that he was being followed at all - thinking of this, Miyano Shiho couldn't help but reveal a smile on his lips, looking at Gao Yuan's back with a hint of amusement.
But, if it was really him, why would his gait be so different!
But soon, Miyano Shiho saw Gao Yuan stopped at a place.
Through the moonlight, Miyano Shiho could see that in front of where Gaoyuan stood, there was a tomb that looked like a pile of stones. There was a stone standing on the tomb, and there seemed to be no writing on it.
But who would build such a tomb in the wilderness?
Seeing this, Miyano Shiho suddenly remembered that the corpse without the lower body found in the fire two years ago was said to be the skeleton of a mermaid! Could it be said that the corpse buried in this tomb was the same?
?
Could it be that the man in front of me also came here for the mermaid’s bones?
But soon, Miyano Shiho saw that Takato was just standing there, looking at the grave, and then sighed before continuing to move forward.
Looking at this scene, Miyano Shiho hesitated. After seeing Gao Yuan's back gradually disappearing from sight, he slowly came to the tomb. Looking at the unmarked tomb, Miyano Shiho couldn't help but frown.
If this is the burial place of the mermaid's bones, then he should indeed investigate it now - but what does that man's sigh mean?
He just sighed and left without lingering any longer. Could it be that he knew something? He knew what was buried here.
So, why did he leave the celebration? If he remembered correctly, his number should have drawn the Dugong Arrow, but he left without waiting to receive the Dugong Arrow.
Standing in front of the grave, Miyano Shiho sighed helplessly - even if this was really the burial place of the mermaid's bones, it would be impossible for him to dig them up and take a look at it. Do you want to call those two people?
After thinking for a moment, Miyano Shiho rejected this idea and walked further in the direction Gao Yuan left - that man should know something about this island! Moreover, he unexpectedly met you here.
, then there is something that I really want to find out now!
At this time, Gao Yuan had already walked out of the woods and came to the house near the seaside.
There are a few scattered houses built here. Not far from the houses is the beach, and you can see the sparkling sea under the night sky.
Relying on the memory of the day, Gao Yuan slowly approached the house where Kadowaki Saori and the others lived.
However, before he even approached the house, Gao Yuan saw from a distance that the lights in the room were already lit. Seeing this, Gao Yuan knew that his guess was correct, so he quickly came to the edge of the house.
I saw two motorcycles parked outside the house at this time, and the sound of rummaging for something could be heard in the room.
It seems that they are planning to come in and steal the "Red-faced Mermaid" when no one is around Kadowaki's house. However, there are two motorcycles outside the door, which shows that there must be more than two people in the house. He now only has
What should a person do?
Hiding outside the house, Gao Yuan found a window, hid under the window sill, and looked tentatively into the house.
At this time, I saw three strong men inside, rummaging through various cabinets and drawers in Kadowaki's house, looking a little anxious.
"Damn it, I couldn't find it no matter where I looked!"
At this time, a man in the room said this with a very angry tone.
"Is that man playing tricks on us? He actually didn't find the gem at all!"
Another man said.
"Probably not. That man came with a photo."
The third man spoke at this time.
"Damn! Then why can't I find it?"
The first man said, "Speaking of which, why hasn't that guy from Nakagawa arrived yet? Didn't he say that he is responsible for the affairs on the island?"
"Yes, it stands to reason that he has arrived a long time ago. How come he just ordered us to do it after the celebration started, and then there was no news!"
said the second man.
"Really, I don't know what the superiors are thinking, why would they let a person who has just joined the group be the person in charge of this matter?"
said the third man.
"That's right. The three of us have done so much for the group, but we have always been at the bottom. That guy became the person in charge when he came here, and ordered us to do things, but he didn't show up. When the action failed, we had to do it right.
You can’t teach him a lesson.”
said the first man.
At this time, Gao Yuan heard that one of the people's cell phones rang, and then there was a brief silence in the room. Then, the first man roared like a roar:
"What are you doing! He actually asked us to restore the scene and then retreated! Who does he think he is? Is it because his father provided funds to the group?"
"Forget it, don't be angry."
This was the voice of the second man, "He is the person in charge anyway. If anything happens, he will be the one to take the blame. All we have to do is follow the instructions."
"However, speaking of that guy's father, I have heard something."
It was still the voice of the second man, "It is said that not long ago, that guy's father seemed to have committed suicide. It is precisely because of this that that guy joined our group."
"Is that so? But doesn't it mean that the guy's father sold the company and made a lot of money to enjoy himself?"
This is the third man's voice.
"It's not that simple."
With a slightly playful tone, the second man continued, "It is said that because the equipment was delayed in delivery, all the previous orders of their company were unable to be completed. How could such a large amount of liquidated damages be obtained by selling the company?
return?"
"However, speaking of it, what is the relationship between that guy's father and the group? I haven't heard it mentioned before in so many years. It was just this time that the group's capital chain in Japan suddenly broke, and this incident suddenly appeared.
thing."
said the first man.
"I don't know."
The second man's voice said, "Okay, let's hurry up and restore this place. It has been delayed for a long time. By the way, you all took photos of the scene when we first came here."
"Of course, this is not the first time we have done this."
These were the voices of two other men, and then the sound of things being turned over came from inside the house.
After hearing this, Gao Yuan quietly left the room and began to think - based on the conversation just now, it can be known that they did not find the "Red-faced Mermaid", and the Nakagawa Great Zang was not inside either.
Since this is the case, there is no need for him to stay any longer. After all, if he cannot find Nakagawa Dazang, then the purpose of this trip will fail. However, it is not completely without gain. Now Gao Yuan knows one thing,
It was Nakagawa Dazang and their father, who had probably committed suicide.
Thinking like this, Gao Yuan planned to go back to the shrine first. When he walked to the higher mountain, Gao Yuan looked back at Kadowaki's house and saw that the lights in the house went out. Then, two motorcycles carrying three people drove away from there.
.
However, since they have turned the Kadowaki family into such a state, why haven't they found the "Red-faced Mermaid"? And why did Nakagawa Daizang, who was directing them behind the scenes, suddenly ask them to retreat? Could it be that Nakagawa Daizang was actually monitoring him all the time?
Looking at them? Seeing that they couldn't find anything after searching like this, they chose to give up?
Thinking of this, Gao Yuan suddenly stopped and frowned.
I overlooked one thing. If Kadowaki Saori's father really discovered the "Red-faced Mermaid", he could hide it from other people on the island, then how did he hide it from his daughter Kadowaki Saori? Unless
He didn't even take the "red-faced mermaid" home!
He is a fisherman. Although the "Red-faced Mermaid" is a gem, the "Red-faced Mermaid" at this moment should be stuck on the back of a pet turtle. It is alive and moving! As a fisherman, he wants to take such a piece of jewelry.
Hidden moving gems, where will they be hidden?
Thinking of this, Gao Yuan immediately started running towards the seaside - in the incident of Masajo Omura, if all the plans were provided by Nakagawa Daizang, then it is obvious that Nakagawa Daizang is a very smart person, and such a person is responsible for this
How could this "red-faced mermaid" incident end in an anticlimax and just let those three people leave with nothing to gain!
Well, thinking about it this way, the possibility, the high probability is that Zang Nakagawa has already found the location of the "Red-faced Mermaid", so the actions of the three people are no longer necessary, so they can retreat!
If you think about it this way, if your guess is correct, now that you have found the place where Kadowaki's father actually hid the "Red-faced Mermaid", you can meet that person, Nakagawa Daizo!
Thinking of this, Gao Yuan rushed to the place where the fishing boats were parked on the island, and found the fishing boat of the Kadowaki family. Just as it happened, there was a car parked on the land next to the boat, similar to the one parked in front of Kadowaki Saori's house just now.
Yes, the same model of motorcycle!
Seeing this, Gao Yuan showed a smile and stepped onto the fishing boat.
Then, I saw a man in the cabin, shining a flashlight, holding a pet turtle in his hand, and gluing a gem necklace to the turtle's back. Next to the man, there was a
The same gemstone necklace.
I see!
Seeing this scene, Gao Yuan understood what the man in front of him was going to do - not only did he want to steal the gem, but he also forged a gem and planned to replace the real gem with a fake one!
From this point of view, the gem beside the man now is the real "red-faced mermaid"!
Seeing that there was only one person in the other party at this time, Gao Yuan slowly walked over, picked up the gem necklace placed next to the man, and then looked at the man in front of him who was concentrating on sticking to the gem, but the man did not realize that Gao Yuan was at this time.
Watching from the side.
"Mr. Nakagawa Dazang, right?"
Gao Yuan finally spoke out after seeing the man in front of him finally sticking the fake gem onto the back of his pet turtle.
When he heard these words, the man was shocked and looked at Gao Yuan aside with a pale face - "You! Who are you!"
"Let me introduce myself, I'm a detective."
Gao Yuan said, "Someone entrusted me to investigate the matter about your brother, Nakagawa Shuzo. But during my investigation, I accidentally discovered a strange thing. Counting you and your younger siblings, they all committed crimes.
.Therefore, I am very curious, what is your reason for doing this?”
Hearing Gao Yuan's words, Nakagawa Dazang frowned slightly and said in disbelief: "Just because of this? You can actually find out here!"
"I'm also surprised by this."
Gao Yuan lamented that it was originally just a letter of entrustment, but he didn't expect that it would feel like connecting all the cases he had solved recently. However, looking at Nakagawa Daizang's attitude, it seems that we can continue the conversation.
"Who is the other party!"
Zang Zang suddenly asked, "Who entrusted you with this task?"
"kindness……"
Hearing Nakagawa Daizang ask this question, Gao Yuan thought for a moment and replied: "The other party's signature is Furukawa Yuji."
"What! Youji! Where is she!"
Hearing this name, Nakagawa Dazang suddenly jumped up in shock, rushed to Gao Yuan, grabbed the collar of Gao Yuan's windbreaker, and asked with some urgency.
Seeing this, Gao Yuan hesitated to use the "Hanged Man", but seeing the look on Nakagawa Osamu's face, Gao Yuan chose to use it first, and asked instead: "Do you know Furukawa Yuki?"
"How could I not know him?"
Nakagawa Dazang said even more excitedly, "She is my fiancée! She told me last month that she would come and marry me after she finished one thing, but since then, I have been unable to contact me anymore.
Her! Tell me how she found you!"
Last month? It happened to be the time when I helped Mr. Nishikawa find an illegitimate daughter.
Gao Yuan thought like this, and did not answer Nakagawa Daizang directly, but asked: "What about you? As far as I know, Nakagawa Entertainment Co., Ltd. was sold at about the same time, and then you disappeared! This
What have you been doing for a while?"
"this……"
Hearing Gao Yuan's question, Nakagawa Dazang's excited spirit calmed down, and he loosened his hand on Gao Yuan's collar, sat down on the ground with some loss, and murmured: "You can't blame me, if I don't do this, we will
The whole family is finished!"
"But the reality is, including your younger brothers and sisters, they are all in prison now. Your whole family is finished!"
Gao Yuan asked.
"Why are you doing this! For money?"
"Yes, it's just for money."
Suddenly, Nakagawa Dazang said with some relief, "If I had money, none of this would have happened."
After a pause, Nakagawa Dazang continued: "Since Mr. Detective has found out to this extent, you should also know that my company has a series of subsequent problems caused by a problem in the development of a game device that simulates reality. This
It’s the beginning of everything.”
"That's right."
Gao Yuan nodded.
"Actually, that's not a development problem."
Nakagawa Daizang said, "It was the developers who had a problem. The entire concept of the simulated reality game device was conceived by one person. He completed the design and feasibility simulation experiments of the device alone. Because our company was developing
I helped him in the early stage, so we obtained the exclusive right to operate the equipment. Originally, about two months ago, the design of this equipment could be completed perfectly, but at that time, the person lost contact. My father
Therefore, he deliberately went to the place where the man lived, but when he came back, he chose to sell the company - he said that the man was dead, the house was burned down, and there was no information left!"
"Then the three of you brothers and sisters chose to commit crimes because the money was used to pay off the liquidated damages caused by the contract signed by the company for this equipment?"
Gao Yuan asked.
"Not only that, there are groups."
Nakagawa Dazang said, "This is an international criminal organization. My father has been a member of this group for some time..."
Before they finished speaking, Gao Yuan and Nakagawa Daizang suddenly heard the sound of a motorcycle coming from outside the fishing boat, as well as the voices of the three men they heard at Kadowaki Saori's house!
Hearing this, Gao Yuan felt something bad, turned around and ran out of the fishing boat immediately. When Nakagawa Dazang heard the three of them coming, his attitude that he had planned to confess immediately became fierce and he got up immediately - "
catch him!"
Nakagawa Dazang yelled, and as soon as the three men got off the motorcycle, they saw Gao Yuan, who was wearing a blue windbreaker, quickly running out of the fishing boat. While the three men were in a daze, they immediately got on a motorcycle.
After starting the car, drive away!
At this time, Nakagawa Dazang also ran out. When he saw the three people in front of him and Gao Yuan who had already left on his motorcycle, he said fiercely: "What are you doing standing there here! Why don't you chase after him! He took the real Red Face
Merman' took it!"
Hearing this, two of them immediately got on another motorcycle and prepared to pursue him. Nakagawa Dazang also immediately started his own car and asked the remaining one to get on and start chasing Gao Yuan.
Gao Yuan, on the other hand, was riding a bicycle with a serious expression on his face - originally, he had almost told everything about himself and Nakagawa Dazang, but those three people actually came over!
Fortunately, I walked decisively, grabbed a motorcycle and left. If I had hesitated a step, I would have been faced with members of four international criminal organizations at once, and I might have lost my life!
Fortunately, I also have a special skill - "Chariot", which can perfectly operate any vehicle within ten minutes!
Originally, Gao Yuan didn't know how to ride a motorcycle, but because of using the "chariot", he mastered all the knowledge about motorcycles and driving techniques the moment he got on the bike!
However, limited by the terrain and vehicle power, Gao Yuan could not get too far away from the four people who were following him. Feeling helpless, Gao Yuan could only believe the word "perfect" said by "Chariot" and chose to drive the motorcycle.
Into the woods on the mountain!
Because the terrain is complex, we have the opportunity to use technology to throw people away, and then find an opportunity to call the police!
Sure enough, after Gao Yuan rode the car into the mountains, it was obvious that he left the two cars behind him - perfect control, not only of the vehicle, but also of the terrain. In the "Chariot"
With the blessing of , many incredible driving skills can be perfectly realized in these ten minutes!
But the problem is that this perfect time is only ten minutes!
Just when these ten minutes were about to pass, Gao Yuan suddenly saw a figure standing in front of the route he was riding. It was at this time that the effect of the "chariot" passed - about motorcycles
The knowledge of cars and driving techniques did not disappear with the disappearance of the "chariot" effect, but the body's control over the vehicle immediately became unfamiliar.
Now, Gao Yuan knows everything about motorcycles, but his body cannot perfectly apply the knowledge in practice. What's more, there is a figure standing in front of him!
Miyano Shiho originally wanted to continue chasing in the direction of Gaoyuan, but unfortunately, after walking for a while, he unknowingly lost his way in the woods because he had no clear direction.
At the same time, because it was getting dark, Miyano Shiho walked around in the woods for a while, and finally got out. Then, he saw the man wearing that style of windbreaker riding a motorcycle.
, coming in your own direction.
Then, just when the vehicle was about to reach him, the man fell down!
Suddenly at high speed, the vehicle lost control. The man, the car and the other passengers fell in front of him, and seemed to have suffered considerable injuries.
Although he didn't know what happened, Miyano Shiho was immediately ready to go and see him.
"Run away!"
At this time, Gao Yuan, who was lying on the ground, saw someone unexpectedly appearing here. Although he couldn't see clearly who it was because of the darkness, he saw the other person walking towards him and subconsciously shouted to him to run away quickly - after all
Behind him are four members of international criminal organizations!
Miyano Shiho listened to Takato's words and at the same time heard the sound of the motorcycle following behind him. He squatted down, looked at Takato's injured area, and then looked at the motorcycle that was not seriously injured. Suddenly, he showed a smile.
