Chapter 2104 2112 [Bourbon's Serial Disasters]

The missing Saruhiko Senda was a brutal killer who chopped off two heads and kidnapped two innocent passers-by.

This incident made everyone shudder.

Things are often not the worst, but only worse - the maid with a low sense of existence came trotting over in wooden clogs, and she said in horror: "The gun... the shotgun is gone!"

“…”

Shancuncao's eyes went dark.

If he had known that keeping the secret would allow a gunman to escape, he would have thrown his own face to the ground and stepped on it rather than let it happen.

Yamamura Cao: “…” Why, why is it so easy for a detective to have his highlight moment, but it is so difficult for him to solve a case!

The unfortunate police inspector cried bitterly in his heart while being forced to ask his superiors for reinforcements.

…

In the woods.

Toru Amuro didn't expect that in just two days after he stopped surveillance, an incident occurred in Nagasaki where an organization cadre was trapped in a high-altitude hot air balloon.

Thinking about the benefits he might get from this incident if he followed, Amuro Toru regretted it deeply. At the same time, he condemned himself in his heart: How could he let go of such an important opportunity just because of a vague event?

It shouldn’t be like this. It really shouldn’t be like this.

Therefore, as a competent undercover, Amuro Toru learned from his mistakes and did not dare to neglect them. When Jiang Xia and the others came to Xun's house this time, he also followed them quietly.

The first two days after arriving, the surveillance life was very pleasant. And because it was too far from Tokyo and the signal was not very good, Amuro Toru had to turn down some work.

This made his days more relaxed, and he turned the dangerous surveillance into a kind of happiness like camping. Amuro Toru even had a hope that time would last longer.

However, happy days are always so short. Not long after, he found some police cars driving into the village, and the police began searching in the woods - they heard that a guest staying overnight was beheaded at Xun's house, and the suspect may have escaped into the dense forest.

The police search made Toru Amuro feel that things were starting to become a little troublesome, but fortunately, it was easy for him to hide from several detectives in the vast woods.

He hid like this for a while, as if playing hide-and-seek, trying to have fun in the midst of suffering.

But this happiness was even shorter-lived - gradually, the number of people searching not only did not decrease, but increased.

Moreover, they have changed from ordinary criminal police to fully armed special forces. Everyone is carrying a gun and the level of vigilance is incomparable to the former.

Toru Amuro: "..."

It actually attracted so many people. What on earth did Wuzo’s new subordinate do in this village?

Could it be that he killed the police inspector who came to investigate the case? ... Well, that stupid police inspector who was afraid of ghosts did look like he would not live long.

Toru Amuro continued to hide while trying to find out the news. This time he had to be extremely alert and he quickly became exhausted.

…

Jiang Xia brought a ghost to the woods to help the police search, and harvested a few pots of coffee by the way.

When we returned to the resting point and were happily counting our harvest, we suddenly heard a gunshot in the woods.

Curacao looked in the direction of the voice and raised an eyebrow with interest: "..." She hoped that Bourbon, who was hiding inside, was discovered and had a conflict with the police while escaping, so he used his gun - there was no reason why she looked haggard after being tortured by Uzo, but Bourbon could play house leisurely in the woods.

However, Curacao was disappointed.

I rushed to the place where the gunshots were heard and saw the search teams forming a circle.

Following the excited Yamamura Cao as he rushed to the front, he saw Senda Saruhiko lying lifelessly on the ground in the center, his head resting on a pool of blood.

He was holding a freshly fired shotgun, with a bullet piercing his head, leaving a horrible bloody hole - it was such a serious injury that there was no need to call an ambulance.

…

"The cause of death of Senda Saruhiko was probably caused by the accidental discharge of a hunting rifle."

Half a day later, the group gathered at Xun's house and listened to Shancuncao's haggard explanation of the situation: "I didn't expect that this cruel guy died so easily. Maybe God also felt that he was deeply sinful... But why did he kill those two people?"

Yamamura Cao touched his chin and suddenly looked at Tatsumi Ryunosuke: "Could it be someone instigated this?"

Xun Longzhijie Peng slapped the coffee table: "What do you mean!"

Shancuncao shrank back again: "No, it's meaningless."

Jiang Xia, a good helper of the police, tried to smooth things over. He pointed to a long and narrow cloth bag next to Shancun Cao and asked, "What is that?"

"Oh, this." Yamamura Cao put on gloves and took it. "It's a relic that Senda carried with him."

He untied the cloth bag and pulled down the opening, revealing a heavy and ancient samurai sword.

Jiang Xia looked at the hilt of the knife, where there was something like a copper button embedded.

Tatsumi Ryunosuke was stunned: "The family crest of the Hiiragi family?! How could Senda have this thing?!"

"Hiragi?" Suzuki Sonoko, who was sitting next to Jiangxia eating melon, suddenly remembered, "Isn't this the surname of the samurai who was killed four hundred years ago!"

"So that's it!" Shancuncao suddenly realized, "I understand, I understand everything!"

Jiang Xia was almost hit by the handle of his knife and tilted his head back: "Don't be impatient, speak slowly."

Yamamura Cao stood up excitedly and said, "Xiantian is the descendant of the murdered general. In order to avenge his ancestors, he sneaked into Xun's house and became a servant here.

"He lay dormant year after year, waiting for the best opportunity to take action. His efforts paid off, and he finally waited for the 'Xun Family Heir Dispute'!

"Sendian then referred to the curse left by his ancestors and gave himself the nickname 'Cursed Samurai', and then killed the next generation of the head of the Xun family, hoping that this family would have no successor!"

Tatsumi Ryunosuke was stunned. "Tatsumi Seimaru is dead, but I am still here. How can this be called no successor... Wait, could it be that my father knew about Senda's conspiracy a long time ago, and in order to protect me, he passed the position of the head of the family to Tatsumi Seimaru, that unlucky guy who has no blood relationship with him?"

He suddenly became excited and turned to Curacao: "Hurry up and bring out the other will!"

Curacao: "...What will?"

Tatsumi Ryunosuke clicked his tongue. “Of course it’s a will that makes me the head of the family if Tatsumi Seimaru can’t take the throne—Dad must have left that, right?”

Curacao: "I'm sorry, I only have one will here, the one I read earlier."

Tatsumi Ryunosuke was annoyed: "You are not having an affair with Tatsumi Seimaru, so you hid the will!"

“…” Curacao’s fists hardened.

Jiang Xia picked some aloe vera and interrupted, "What about Chi Numa who died in the secret room?"

Yamamura Tsao scratched his head and quickly filled in this small loophole with his active mind: "That Akanuma is mysterious, and we can tell a lot about him at a glance - it must be because he accidentally knew the identity of Sendada's 'Cursed Samurai', so he was silenced by Sendada!"
