Chapter 295 Where is My Part?
Jiang Xia glanced behind Keiko Yuuchi, revealing a complicated expression with a hint of worry, and asked in a low voice: "Are you going to look for that 'Uncle Yoshifusa?' I just saw him and his bodyguard walking this way."
Right in the heart.
Keiko Yuuchi denied in panic: "No... I didn't look for him, I just wanted to go back to my room to get something, yes, to get my coat, that... it's too cold in the yard at night."
Jiang Xia didn't say anything, but looked at her thoughtfully.
Keiko Yuuchi was exposed to his gaze, her expression became more and more stiff, and she always felt that her dark thoughts had been seen through by the other party.
However, unexpectedly, Jiang Xia did not suddenly say something like "Are you going to attack him?"
Instead, after looking further into the corridor, he lowered his voice even lower: "I'm actually here to remind you not to contact him alone."
Combined with the gloomy atmosphere of the late night and the cold wind in the suburbs that occasionally brushed across the back of the neck, Jiang Xia's voice was so low that it seemed as if he was worried about being heard by the mastermind behind the scenes, which made Keiko Yuuchi shiver uncontrollably.
"Although there are still some doubts, the one who killed Madam Machiko Yarouchi should be the 'Uncle Yoshifusa'."
She heard Jiang Xia say worriedly: "...I always feel that he has a strong intention to kill, but he has an alibi. If we can't find all the evidence, we may not be able to arrest him."
Keiko Yabuuchi was shocked. The one who killed his second wife was actually Yabuuchi Yoshifusa? ! !
For a moment, she felt as if a fine electric current was flowing across her back, causing goose bumps. She felt the fear of suddenly discovering that the prey she had been chasing for a long time was actually the boss behind the scenes who would kill her if she touched him.
With Jiang Xia's reputation in mind, she believed this answer without much hesitation. And if it was Yoshifusa Yanai who killed the man, the only conflict between him and his second wife was that his second wife wanted to kill him and seize the inheritance... Thinking of this, Keiko Yanai felt that the terrible butcher knife seemed to be on her neck - she, she also thought about attacking Uncle Yoshifusa! If Yoshifusa Yanai noticed this...
Just as I thought of this, there was a sudden silence around me. As the sound disappeared, the moonlight in the courtyard seemed to become cold and gloomy.
Keiko Yuuchi was startled, and in a flash she suddenly realized what sound was missing - before that, there was always the ticking sound of clocks around her.
The sound is not obvious through several layers of wood and walls, and because it is extremely regular, it will become a familiar background after just a few seconds of listening, just like the air floating around, the silent pine trees in the corner, the closed shoji beside you...
Only when the "ticking" sound stops abruptly does it give people a sudden feeling of being too quiet.
And this means...
Buzz——
The taut bowstring was released, and the crossbow arrow that had been loaded long ago shot out from the Buddhist temple, piercing through the shoji screen, passing over the instep of Keiko Yuuchi's foot, and with a bang, it pierced deeply into the floor beside her feet.
The tip of the arrow plowed a deep groove on the instep of her foot. The cut flesh turned pale at first, and then a large amount of blood gushed out. Keiko Yarouchi let out a horrifying scream and staggered to the ground.
Jiang Xia, who was standing next to him, didn't seem to expect things to turn out this way. He grabbed Keiko Yuuchi's arm and threw her aside. He hid behind the wall himself, then pushed open the punctured shoji: "Who?!"
Keiko Yuuchi sat on the ground, holding her feet in pain, with a lot of dirty words stuck in her heart. She knew that there was no one in the temple, only a crossbow with a timer. What frightened her most was that the arrow should not be fired at this time, why...
The figure of "Uncle Yifang" just now suddenly appeared in her mind.
Keiko Yarouchi's heart skipped a beat and she felt like she understood - if the bow wasn't malfunctioning, then it must be that Uncle Yoshifusa had discovered her tracking and the arrows in the Buddhist temple, so he went in and fiddled with them, hoping to randomly stab whoever was following her!
Just as Jiang Xia said, he had a strong murderous intent... When Keiko Yuuchi thought of the horrible corpse of her second wife who died with her eyes open, her pupils trembled a little.
Jiang Xia observed the Buddhist hall and found that there was no one inside, so he pretended to go in and take a look.
At this moment, Keiko suddenly caught a glimpse of two figures running from the depths of the corridor, one in front and one behind. In that direction... was Yoshifusa Yamauchi and his bodyguards!!
When Keiko Yuuchi saw the mastermind approaching, she was so scared that her soul almost left her body. She hugged Jiang Xia's legs and held them tightly: "Don't go! Don't go! He wants to kill me, they want to kill me!!"
Jiang Xia silently lowered his head to look at her, and saw that as the fake Yoshifusa ran closer, the murderous aura on Keiko Yuuchi seemed to be frightened and rushed to leave and slowly fell to the ground.
Jiang Xia stopped his steps to enter the Buddhist temple, first rescued his legs from Keiko Yuuchi's hands, then half squatted down and patted her as if to comfort her.
By the way, pick up the murderous aura when no one is paying attention.
Then Jiang Xia also turned around and looked at the fake Yoshifusa Tadao and his Brazilian "bodyguard" with a wary look on his face.
The Brazilian boy was confused, and so was Yoshifusa Yabuuchi. The two of them ran over following the screams.
However, when Kake Yoshifusa saw the arrows on the ground, the location of the Buddhist temple, and heard Keiko Tarouchi muttering "Don't kill me", he vaguely guessed the current situation.
Seeing Jiang Xia's alert look, Fake Yifang snorted in an ambiguous tone: "The police here are really getting worse and worse. They can't even beat a school kid."
Jiang Xia: "..." It seems that Brazil doesn't have this kind of high school student detective culture...
The fake Ayauchi Yoshifusa looked at the frightened Ayauchi Keiko, thought for a moment, walked around her and went towards the group of police officers.
Although he said that just now, as a Japanese, Kajitsufusa actually knows a lot about the detectives of the island country.
Now that his true identity has been seen through, it shouldn't take long for Jiang Xia to find evidence. He might as well explain everything now. The police might, in recognition of his honesty, let him stay until the next morning when the will is announced.
Even if he couldn't keep them, he had already found the two most dangerous people. If the police were involved, the other family members would understand that if anything happened to the Brazilian boy, they would be the biggest suspects and would stop threatening him.
...After so much trouble, everything is finally coming to an end.
…
The next morning, in the warehouse of the Yanai family.
Yusaku Kudo climbed up from the concrete floor with a sore back, rubbed his neck, was confused for a moment, and suddenly remembered what had happened before.
Finding the environment relatively safe, he subconsciously began to think about who had attacked him. Many speculations flashed through his mind, but he could not be sure.
At the same time, Kudo Yusaku took out his cell phone and checked the time.
