Chapter 109: A night of terror filled with the smell of rust
The time has to go back to the evening of late summer and August fifteen years ago, the evening breeze rustles the plane tree in front of the apartment, Zhu Fujingguang, who shares a room with his brother, closes the homework book, and he has a good tutor, he habitually finishes the homework assigned by the teacher, and goes to play with his brother.
But today is different, because his brother Takaaki Zhufu went to the school's summer camp, he had to hold his mother's freshly cut chilled watermelon, sit cross-legged on the sofa and blow the fan, while enjoying the refreshing watermelon to quench his thirst, while watching the hit "Mobile Suit Gundam".
After watching it for less than half an hour, he smelled the scent of curry coming from the kitchen, he quickly picked up the remote control and turned off the TV, ran quickly to the kitchen and said with a smile: "Mom, I'll help you serve the meal!" ”
"Then please Xiaojing." After turning down the heat, Zhu Fu Shengmei walked to the entrance and picked up the eldest brother placed on the shoe cabinet, dialed her husband's number, and asked aloud, "Husband, why haven't you come back today?" Your favorite curry is ready. ”
"I'm already downstairs at home, and on the way home, I saw that the blueberries were very good, so I wanted to buy some back for the children." Zhu Fu Shisheng smiled and looked upstairs, he was very much looking forward to seeing his lovely son and beautiful wife after work, which also made him more and more positive towards life and yearning for the future.
After the sensible Zhu Fu Jingguang placed the spoon neatly, he did not forget to pour iced chocolate milk into his small mug, and when he heard the movement at the entrance, he also put the slippers neatly for his father as soon as he heard the movement.
"I'm back."
"Welcome back, Daddy!"
"Jingguang, this is the blueberry that Dad bought for you! If it's delicious, I'll buy some for Gao Ming tomorrow. Zhu Fu Jingguang happily took the blueberries, and through the transparent plastic shell, he could see that each round blueberry was plump, and it looked very delicious.
He thought it must be delicious, so in order to save some family expenses, he would put it in the refrigerator and enjoy it together when Brother Gao Ming came home.
The ordinary dinner of a family of three began at about nineteen o'clock in the evening, and Zhu Fu Shengmei did not forget to take out the cold beer that had been prepared from the refrigerator, she knew that her husband would come to the first half bottle every night to celebrate the alcohol.
But as soon as dinner began, there was a loud doorbell at the door, followed by a quick knock on the door, and I don't know what the urgency was, so that the people outside the house were not willing to wait patiently.
"You eat first, I'll go see who's coming." Zhu Fu Shisheng got up and walked towards the entrance, but he never thought that when he opened the door, he would lose the opportunity to have dinner, and he would never be able to fulfill his promise to buy the blueberries that the children liked to eat.
Zhu Fu Jingguang, who was caught in the memory, folded his hands together, clenched his teeth and said: "The man who came to visit seems to be an acquaintance of my father, although I can't quite know the specific content of their exchange, but from the tone, I can hear that the atmosphere when they first talked was still very good." But it didn't take long for the man's voice to get louder and louder, and the mother went to the door to check on the situation. His father's painful voice came to mind, and Zhu Fu Jingguang was tormented every time he remembered it, as if the memory could drag him into that terrifying night filled with the smell of rust, and he even remembered that he was so surprised that he couldn't make a sound, and he didn't know when the iron spoon in his hand fell on the table.
"Soon my father groaned in pain, and when my mother came running back to me, her expression was clearly frightened, but she still locked me in the closet and went to face the man alone, and told me 'you can't come out until I call you out.......'"
"But then came the sound of my mother arguing with the man, but eventually her voice disappeared, and the smell of rust gradually spread, and I could smell it even hidden in the closet." The smell of rust, the smell of blood, and the main component of hemoglobin in red blood cells is iron.
Fujiwara Yu frowned and thought about the pictures of the scene he had seen on the news at the time, if he remembered correctly, there was indeed chaos on the floor, even if the police put a mosaic on the public photos, they could still determine that the large amount of dark red flooring on the ground was not the original color of the floor, but a sign of blood staining.
"Do you remember what happened after that? Didn't the murderer look for you? You know, there are three people's cutlery on the table, and if the goal is to destroy the door, there's no reason not to look for you. Matsuda Jinpei looked at Zhufu Jingguang with a serious face and asked out loud.
"After this I heard the singing, not the voice of Mom and Dad, but a deliberately sharp, seductive voice, singing the same sentence over and over again with rhythm." Zhu Fu Jingguang took a deep breath to calm his mood, but he didn't expect his expression to be still frightened here, he tried to restrain his voice from trembling, and continued: "So I looked out through the crack in the wallcabinet tremblingly, and I saw a man holding a blood-stained kitchen knife in his hand, humming words like 'It's okay, come out quickly'......" Matsuda Jinpei heard this and hurriedly grabbed Jingguang's shoulder, and said in an excited tone: "Where's the face?" Didn't you see his face?! ”
"No...... Because I was scared at the time, I didn't care about it at all. Yin Dahang stretched out his hand to support his chin and made a state of thinking, his mouth repeatedly chanted the content of the hum, and after reaching a conclusion, he raised his eyes and asked: "Na, I said that the person he is looking for will not be Zhufu?" But someone else? ”
"Someone else?" Zhu Fu Jingguang tried to recall the scene when he heard this, and the fragments of memory were gradually pieced together, and he closed his eyes and recalled: "Yes...... He wasn't looking for me, because it was a girl's name after 'come out'. That's right, it's the girl I used to play with when I was a child, and the girl who looks very similar to this girl named Endo Aina, her name is Yuri! ”
"Wait, are you saying that this missing girl looks a lot like your childhood playmate? And the murderer was going to look for her at that time, so what about Youli, where is she now? After Kenji Akihara sensed that something was wrong, he hurriedly grabbed the key point and asked.
"She died of illness at the beginning of August." Zhu Fu Jingguang frowned, he covered his forehead and said in annoyance: "Actually, just now Ah Yu has deduced that the murderer is likely to be part of the Youli family, but I really can't remember what the name of the Youli family is...... I feel like I can only find another breakthrough. Matsuda Jinpei stretched out his hand and pointed to his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Isn't there another breakthrough?" The man with the goblet tattoo, if we find him, we can catch the murderer too! ”
"But according to the clues we have so far, there are no qualified people at all." The atmosphere in the bedroom instantly became silent, and everyone silently began to sort out the existing clues, obviously they were infinitely close to answering, but they always felt that something strange...... But there is no way to capture the strange place.
Just when Matsuda Jinhei was feeling irritable, Yin Dahang suddenly noticed the wardrobe behind Shizutani, and a light flashed in his mind, and he suddenly realized: "Wait a minute, what if the place where Zhufu was at that time was not a wallboard?" ”
"Huh?!"
