Chapter 81: The Secret of the Black God Island: Revisited
Who exactly sent me the letter?
On the way out of the stalactite cave, Nao has been pondering in his heart. 『』
It wouldn't be Yumi Matayoshi, because thanks to her training in the Shoyu class, she was already able to tell if a person was lying by his heartbeat, breathing, and pupil contractions, which was clearly the latter, or either Akisei Aragaki or Kumama Sueyoshikawa, who didn't even know anything about Yuto sending a letter to lure Soji Higa back to the island, let alone the identity of Yuichiro Iwasaki.
If they knew the true identity of the treasure hunter...... I am afraid that this secret investigation will develop into a well-known Cheng dù.
Because that Yuichiro Iwasaki is the ignorant fire who disappeared in the tragedy ten years ago.
According to Yuruto, Shiranui was lucky not to die after being pushed off a cliff by Higa Soji that year, but he temporarily lost his memory due to the impact, and was rescued by a sightseeing boat after drifting at sea for a day and a night. He grew up in an orphanage on the main island of Okinawa as "Yuichiro Iwasaki", and it wasn't until he accidentally hit his head three years ago that he gradually remembered his childhood memories......
Recalling that he had investigated the newspapers of the past and learned that the murderer of the tragedy was still at large, he boarded a ship bound for Kurosami Island - and happened to meet Yuto Matachichi, who was beaten to pieces by Nao during the siege and was about to return to the island to recuperate.
Yuren was a little embarrassed when he talked about the events of the year, as if he realized that he had bullied a girl for the first time, but the most embarrassing thing for him was that he was beaten by a girl three years younger than him and had to go back to his hometown to recuperatereads(); Military marriage is difficult to disobey -- wives meet opponents. Looking at the side face of the girl beside him without any extra expression, he sighed in his heart without knowing whether to be happy or regretful.
"What's next?" asked Yuto, retracting his gaze from Nao.
"Let's move on to the next step. ”
Nao looked at his watch, it was still early, enough to go to the cliff where Yuto's father, Higa Kenichi, "committed suicide".
"Take me to the ...... of the year"
However, when she raised her head, the sight she saw forced the words behind her to be silenced.
――In the shopping street not far from the cliff where they were, three teenagers were looking left and right with high interest, and one of them was the full-body* Heikoba Rin who had been warned by Nao not to follow.
Nao narrowed his eyes, grinned, and shouted to the three of them, "Hey, little brother over there, come and talk a little!"
It sounded quite cheerful, but it made Yuren, who was standing behind her, suddenly feel an indescribable coldness.
Rin Hirakoba heard the familiar tone and didn't turn his head to look at the person who came, and his body shivered honestly, and although he didn't know the beginning and the end of the wooden hand and Kai, who didn't recognize her, he had become keenly aware of the inconvenience of the comer since he was a child—the former silently raised his glasses that shone white, and the latter showed an excited expression of eagerness—and the two walked towards the cliff together.
"It's worthy of an island full of bad boys, and there are people who find fault so soon?"
"That's not right, Kai-kun, now this is not the location of the bad boss who dominated Naha back then, it should be called the island where the lost dogs gathered—do you say yes, the watchdog of the Ryukyu East, Yoshi-san?" Kite Eijiro kept a perfect honorific and looked up and down at the calm Yuto and Nao, whose smile was getting deeper and deeper, "Oh, can't help but change the new owner after only a few years? ”
Listening to the singing and harmony of the two, Rin Pinggu stumbled under his feet. Except for Youto Mataki, who has always been a sudden move with a paralyzed face, he knew Nao's fiery temper and the so-called "evil ghost smile" when he was angry, and he hurriedly stopped before the two sides could kill each other, waving his arms to block the line of sight of the confrontation between the two sides.
"-Wait a minute, wait a minute!!"
"Ahh
Nao pulled up Rin Hirakoba's collar, and under Bai Sensen's lenses was a strange grin that almost turned into a crescent moon. Although he was smiling, his words were so serious that there was no smile at all, and the not very loud Okinawan dialect seemed to have a tropical depression, and everyone only felt that even the air around them seemed to have become viscous, making it a little difficult to breathe.
"I think the moment you set foot on this island, you already chose the way to die, right?"
The young police officer smiled and bared her teeth, but her eyes were as sharp as a blade, "Don't feel ashamed - don't worry, no matter how ugly your howl is, I will treat it as if I didn't hear it, this is a special treat limited to this time! Kneel down and weep bitterly in thanksgiving, Yellow Haired Boy!"
"Don't, don't be so serious, and I'm not a yellow-haired boy anymore haha......"
Looking at Rin Pingguba, who was sweating but motionless and only smirking, Mu Shou was stunned for a moment, and stretched out his arm to stop Kai who was about to come forward to help but also suddenly froze (); The baby's urban idyll. Yujiro Kofi also seemed to understand something, and stepped back and whispered in Kite's ear: "What a strong aura!
"After all, she used to be a famous bad girl in Naha, so it's natural to have this kind of Cheng dù. Mu Shou looked at the murderous Nao, and there was some approval on his face.
And after hearing Nao's description of "Yellow Haired Boy", Yuto who finally recognized Rin Hirakuba relaxed his muscles and looked at the girl police officer with a nostalgic smile in his eyes that he didn't even know.
"Save the special treat for next time, Shao Dongjia, this is not a good place to catch up. ”
Hearing this, Nao snorted coldly and restrained his expression, and suddenly let go of Rin's collar, pushing him to a stumbling back. Although the threat was half-true and half-true, the worry in her heart was out-and-out, and Rin Pingguba, who grew up with her as a child, saw her thoughts, and showed a bright smile that was a little embarrassed but still firm.
Facing the familiar smile of Rin Hirakuba, Nao took a deep breath and deliberately did not look at him, but crossed his shoulder to greet Kite and Kai.
"Come with me first. ”
It was the middle of the day, but the weather that had just been sunny was cloudy again. Large dark clouds paced through the sky, illuminating the entire Black God Island in a wonderful state that was half bright and half dark.
The Kurosami Shrine, located on the hill near the shopping street, is now shrouded in dark clouds, and the vermilion torii gate in the shadow seems to be covered with dried blood. A gust of mountain wind blew, and the cool feeling made the soaked Hirakuba Rin sneeze.
Nao, who was walking at the forefront, stopped.
"What's the matter with your clothes?"
"Well...... When I came ashore, I pushed the boat. ”
Rin rubbed her nose and approached her with a smile, "Not angry?"
"What's the use of being angry, can I blow you back?" Nao glanced at him, "You guys are so bold, it's the rainy season, and if you drive a boat to such a far place without permission, you're not afraid that you won't be able to go back?"
"It's okay, it's okay, Yujiro is an expert in this area! He grew up on a fishing boat with his father, and he knows exactly what kind of wind and waves blow in what season, and he can tell if it will rain with his nose!"
Rin Hirakuba ostentatiously punched his thumb, and the latter lowered the brim of his hat in some surprise.
"Forget it...... Now that you are standing here, there are some things that you should know. ”
The young police officer took off the flat glasses on the bridge of her nose and turned to look at the three of them seriously, "As you can see, I didn't use my official identity when I came to Black God Island this time. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I am currently using the pseudonym 'Matsuda Uchizosuke' as a second-year junior high school student who came to the island for sightseeing. This island may not look unusual on the surface, but it is actually full of dangers, so it is best to leave it tomorrow morning with the regular boat to the main island of Okinawa. ”
The brief words couldn't help but make the three teenagers look at each other. Because of the publicity of the Metropolitan Police Department and the Minor Education Division, several people learned more or less from the newspapers about Nao's usual behaviors, most of which were vicious cases involving human lives, so no one questioned her description.
But no one wants to give up. Even completely against Nao's wishes, several people have a strong interest in this strange world that is not known to ordinary people, and "want to see it with their own eyes".
Yes, I want to take a look, that's what I'm here for- I don't even have to listen to the answer, the three pairs of burning eyes have already let Nao know their choicereads(); Fight the demons.
“…… I wanted to say that, but it didn't seem to work. ”
Putting the glasses back in place, Nao had an unsurprisingly flat expression, "But for your personal safety, you must maintain a poker face that knows nothing in front of anyone for the rest of the day, and don't be too curious, otherwise even if your identity is revealed, I will forcibly send you back - by the way, visit the detention cell of the Naha Metropolitan Police Department." ”
Except for the wide-eyed Hirakuba Rin, this remark made Mu Shou, who had always threatened others and had never enjoyed such treatment, show a rather surprised expression.
"It's a new feeling. Kite Eijiro raised his eyebrows, "Don't worry, I don't have the idea of asking for hardship, and my members must not be fools who don't know the severity." ”
"I hope so. ”
Nao suppressed the foreboding feeling that welled up in her heart and glanced deeply at a few people.
As if to match her mood, there was a sudden rumbling thunder in the sky, and the group had to pause their conversation and hurriedly walk past the torii gate in the direction of Akanehama-tei.
It's a real problem. Nao thought to herself as she hurried. The arrival of the three of them has become an established fact, and even if they are annoyed, they can't change anything, but in this way, it makes the investigation that has not made much progress in the first place become more difficult - two days later, it will be the "night of the three days and moon" mentioned in the puzzle, and the actions of Higa Soji and others are about to begin, so the fewer people who know their true identities, the better, and if they leak out, this qiē effort may be in vain.
But that's not the most important thing.
A haze crossed Nao's eyes - according to the current clues, there is a 100% chance that Higa Soji was the main culprit in the case ten years ago, not to mention that there are other accomplices hiding underwater...... With such a vicious criminal by her side, how can she ensure the safety of several people?
But if they were told the truth, would these untrained ordinary teenagers be able to show no surprise in front of the suspects?
One qiē can only resign himself to fate.
The young police officer looked up at the gloomy sky, and for the first time lost his confidence in strategizing in the case.
The clouds came to a halt at the edge of the woods. Compared to the dark woods like evening, the road leading to Akahama Pavilion is full of sunshine, and the warm sun shines on your body very comfortably. If it weren't for the image, Rin Pinggu would even want to roll a few times on the spot.
Akane Hama Pavilion was empty, not even Mrs. Mieda, who barely left the house, which made the preoccupied Nao really breathe a sigh of relief. As soon as he entered the door, the shivering Heikoba couldn't wait to take a shower and borrowed Yujin's clothes to wear, while Kide and Kai picked their favorite room after checking in the check-in information. Including Yuto, the expressions of several teenagers were much more relaxed than when they talked in the woods before.
"If you want me to say, it's all Nao's fault. Rin Hirakuba rubbed his hair and complained, "The weather is gloomy enough, and you still have a stinky face, so I haven't warmed up yet, it's just a low-pressure demon king." ”
"Do you need me to welcome me - and from now on, please call me 'Matsuda Uchizosuke'. ”
"Yes, yes, Neizo Suke-san—" Hirakuba lazily lengthened his voice.
"So, what are we going to do next? What is the general situation of the case you are investigating, can you tell us?"
Kai leaned on the table with his face propped up, staring at Nao, who couldn't see his expression, "Don't say anything about secrecy or anything like that, since we keep a poker face that we don't know anything about in front of anyone, which means that there are suspects in a very close place, right, don't you think it's safer than taking precautions and taking the initiative?"
"Take the initiative...... reads(); Lord Shenhu has a lot of peach blossoms. Nao laughed.
"It seems that Uchizo Suke-kun still has great doubts about our abilities. ”
Kite, took a sip of tea, "According to what you said before, can I understand it this way - the suspect in this case is too dangerous, and if he is involved in the case, he may be threatened with his life - so whether it is the intimidation in the restaurant a few days ago or the threat in the woods just now, it is all to keep us from approaching." ”
He put down his teacup and lifted the frame with his index finger, one side of the lens reflecting a blinding white light.
"But Uchizo-suke--are you underestimating us too much?"
"It's Sa~ In terms of Okinawa martial arts, Yongshiro is much more powerful than Rin and Zhinian. You should know their Cheng dù, right?"
"That's right. And it's not just Okinawan martial arts, it's insidious, and Eishiro is also at the national level!" Rin said with a grin as she put her hand on Nao's shoulder.
"Pingguchang-kun - if you talk nonsense, you will be punished for eating bitter melon. ”
"Ah, bitter gourd will spare me!"
Rin Hirakuba exaggeratedly raised his hand in surrender and signaled, and the appearance of playing treasure made Nao, who was strained in face, couldn't help but smile. She looked sideways at Youren who was leaning against the door, the other party's indifferent appearance made her feel that she was a little too nervous, although the case was tricky, but it was not a poison that could be touched and killed, if a suitable method was found, it could still be solved relatively safely.
It is better to pay more attention to the other person's mind than to the suspect's violence - and if she wants to compete with her mind, she can be as confident as others.
Moreover-
The girl raised her face and met the eyes of the head of Higa's junior tennis department.
"Insidious at the national level. She curled the corners of her lips, "Then please advise." ”
"Each other, each other. ”
Kite Eishiro also smiled meaningfully.
