Chapter 17: 1 hour and 22 minutes

"Police investigation confirmed."

"This man is the co-chief of the Hokkaido Coal Mine Local Authority, the former technical chief engineer of the Kita-Tan-Shimizusawa Coal Mine, and the former chief engineer of the Kita-Tan-Shimizuzawa Coal Mine."

When Kifu Taro saw this news content, his face was gloomy.

Nobunaga Hatoshi lit a hand-rolled cigarette. Rough cigarettes, smoke rising from the burning, blurred his countenance.

Co-chief of the Hokkaido Coal Mine Municipality, former Chief Technical Engineer of Kita-Tan-Shimizusawa Coal Mine, Kamiyama and Uemon.

Suicide by lying on the rails?

…………

According to the time node announced in the news.

Nobunaga Hatoto, with a cigarette in his mouth, took out a piece of paper, and wrote notes on the table.

Push back the timeline.

Inspectors along the railway line found the body, and the headquarters of the Yubari City Police Department, dozens of kilometers away, came to investigate, concluded suicide, issued a written report, and released a police message......

In just 1 hour and 22 minutes?

At this distance, it takes more than 40 minutes to drive to the scene from the headquarters of the Yubari City Police Station......

…………

The investigation of this case was carried out by the Yubari City Police Station, which is dozens of kilometers away from the railway where the incident occurred.

Nobunaga remembered that there was a police station near Awayamacho Station in Yubari City.

The police station within a few kilometers was not dispatched. Dozens of kilometers away, the headquarters of the Yubari City Police Department intervened in the case......

…………

"I'm going to kill that bastard!"

"Yoshida Tzota! He must have done it! ”

Kifutaro rushes to the kitchen in a rage and takes out his twin scythe.

His sudden outburst startled Nobunaga.

Twin Lock Scythe, stimulated by Gifu Taro's anger, like two poisonous snakes ready to hunt, actively cling, wrapping around his waist, the scythe shining cold.

"Calm down!" Nobunaga grabbed Gifu Taro: "Let's go find Goro." ”

While drinking, Mr. Kamiyama Mataemon handed over a backup document to Goro.

Probably because of the "capture", Gifu Taro did not continue to be impulsive, but changed his clothes and covered the twin scythe with his coat.

Nobunaga took Holland's double-barreled short-handled shotgun with him.

He changed into a loose suit and hurried to Goro's house with Gifutaro.

…………………………

The Kamado Goro House is located in a super miner's living area near the Kitantan Shimizusawa Coal Mine, which is a gathering area for the miners' families, and at its peak was inhabited by more than 4,000 people.

Today, with the depression of the coal industry in Yubari City, there are only more than 300 people living in this living area, and it is a depressed scene.

The family originally lived next to Takigami Station, but after serving as the head of the coal mine production workshop, the family moved here.

…………

When Nobunaga and Kifutaro rode their bicycles to the workers' quarters.

An ambulance passed by.

Nobunaga had a sense of foreboding.

The Kamado Gorou House is a traditional Japanese-style one-family building.

During the period of rapid economic growth in the past 30 years, single-family houses were the first ideal model for RB private houses.

In Japanese, it is called "δΈ€ζˆΈε»Ί".

It consists of a small courtyard, a parking lot, some private roads, and a small wooden building with 2 to 3 floors, with an area of about 100 to 300 square meters.

…………

Beginning in the 70s, apartment-style, or unit-type housing, became popular in major cities such as Tokyo and Osaka.

However, the houses of ordinary families are still mainly built by "one household".

Although there are many different shapes of this "one-family building", in fact, the building materials are all made of wooden structures.

Houses built with wooden buildings are earthquake-resistant, durable, and have a short construction period.

Even a 300-square-meter wooden house can be built in just a month.

…………

Timber houses were built so quickly.

This is mainly due to the standardized production of timber components.

In the RB wooden house production workshop, the logs can be accurately processed into walls, doors, windows, roof beams and other components after processing on the operating table, and then transported to the construction site in an orderly manner......

It only takes a few weeks to assemble a house.

Through industrial production, the construction speed, labor time, including the health problems of later decoration, this kind of one-family construction has an absolute advantage over the traditional brick-concrete structure of the house.

…………………………

Goro's wife and two children were crying and weeping, receiving transcripts from the local police station.

In addition to the two police officers at the police station, surrounded by a circle of coal miners, Goro Kamado is a well-known member of the community, and in addition to being the head of the production plant, he himself holds a key position in the local coal miners' body.

Nobunaga and Gifutaro stepped forward to inquire and learned that Goro Kamado was on his way home when he was dragged into the alley by a group of mobsters, and more than a dozen people beat him together, and after Goro was knocked unconscious, the gang snatched his briefcase.

"Excuse me, is there anything else that has been lost?" The young police officer, who was in charge of the record, asked.

"No, the briefcase is missing. Goro, he was also beaten unconscious...... Woo woo woo ...... "Lady Goro Kamado cried and cried.

"Isn't the wallet lost? And Mr. Kamado's watch? Nobunaga asked.

People in this era carry cash with them. Especially the character of Goro Kamado, who is righteous and squandering money, usually has a lot of money in his wallet.

The watch brought by Goro Kamado, the crown blue lion under Seiko.

This was given to him by his father-in-law after he became the director of the coal mine production workshop.

Nobunaga was very impressed with this watch.

At the beginning, Goro Kamado showed off the gifts given to him by his father-in-law in the restaurant.

The blued steel hands of this watch are very eye-catching, and the polishing of the hands has reached an almost demanding level.

There is really nothing to say about the workmanship and polishing, and the details are very well handled.

At that time, a group of people in the restaurant looked with a magnifying glass, and they really couldn't find a single flaw.

The price of this crowned blue lion is 400,000 yen.

Wallets and watches.

According to the style of the rioters in Hokkaido, these are the two things that must be grabbed.

…………

"No...... I didn't lose my wallet or watch. Goro's wife, sobbing, replied.

"I only grabbed the briefcase...... "Nobunaga Hato" understood.

Two names popped into his mind.
