Guardian of the Goddess of Conan

"It's a pity that it didn't take long for those of us who are in the silent film industry to..."

That's it...

Qingchi Lijia just sighed deeply and didn't go on. There was a trace of sadness on her cheeks, but even if you think about it, they will know that when the sound film became popular, their silent film professions People will lose their jobs...

Chapter 1816 Suspicious Points in the Case Twenty Two Years Ago

"In those days, if it weren't for the popularity of sound films, Genjiro and I would not have lost our favorite silent film jobs, let alone go back to settle down in Guishou Village in Okayama Prefecture due to unemployment. Genjiro would not later Death is so miserable..."

"So, I hate movies with sound."

In the lobby of Kamenoyu, when the proprietress Rika Aoike said here, Yunfeng and Yukiko Fujimine both couldn't help but sigh secretly. After all, the times are progressing and science is developing, not just silent movies, but many industries are in it. The gradual elimination in the increasingly developed life is a kind of inevitability of survival of the fittest, but the two can still understand her mood very well.

At this moment, Taro Fujimoto suddenly came to the lobby and looked at Aoike Rika with a hesitant expression.

Seeing this, Qingchi Lijia thought he had some secret police work to discuss with Yunfeng and others, so he left quickly.

However, after seeing the proprietress closing the door and leaving, Fujimoto Taro couldn't help sighing, and whispered with a complicated expression: "Officer Yun, Officer Fujimine, I... my subordinate thought of a very possible suspicious point and wanted to follow You two will report..."

"Oh? Inspector Fujimoto, have you found any clues to the disappearance of Taro Rafangan and the death of Yura Yasuko?"

Hearing Yunfeng’s curious question, Fujimoto Taro shook his head and said solemnly: “What I want to report to the two police officers is actually about the murder of the big liar Onda Kizo many years ago. Let’s not hide it from you. In the past 22 years, I have always had a kind of doubt, that is, was the person killed in the village chief’s public house really the husband of Lijia Genjiro Aoike?"

Hearing this, not only Yunfeng, but even the sensitive Fujimine Yukiko, understand what Fujimoto Taro's words mean.

After all, according to what they know, on the night 22 years ago, Genjiro Aoike went alone to find the big liar Onda Kizo, who was staying in the village chief’s public house by the same person. After the killer was killed, the corpse fell face down on the brazier in the room. The entire corpse's cheeks were burned beyond recognition, and it was hard to see what it looked like.

In addition, Genjiro Aoike's figure seems to be similar to Onda Kizo's figure...

And when the first witnesses, Aochi Lijia and Dororo Fangan arrived, the murderer Onda Kisan had already slipped away...

Therefore, what happened in the village chief’s public house that night can only be analyzed based on the dead body of Aoike Genjiro.

The reason why it is believed to be the corpse of Aoike Genjiro is because the corpse is wearing the clothes he wore when he left "Kame no Yu".

But you know, the clothes...that can be changed, and the deceased was burned by the brazier beyond recognition.

In many typical cases, this can be regarded by the murderer as the best advantage for "stealing the situation and crossing the sea".

Come to think of it, this is the doubt that Fujimoto Taro said.

Sure enough, I just listened to the old inspector's careful analysis word by word: "Officer Yun, Officer Tengfeng, do you think the people who were killed in the village chief’s public house that night 22 years ago, Is it true that Genjiro Aoike is undoubtedly?"

"No...no, this argument is not unique, because the face of the deceased has been burned beyond recognition by the brazier."

"Therefore, there is another argument, that is, the murderer was not the big liar Onda Kizo, but was actually Aoike Genjiro, the owner of "Kame no Yu". After killing Onda Kizo in turn, he took clothes with the corpse. Swap, and then press the corpse's cheeks into the brazier at the scene of the house. Then, wouldn't a "dead ghost" be created easily?"

"After that, the real murderer Aoike Genjiro fled with the large amount of money that Onda had defrauded?"

After hearing Taro Fujimoto’s analysis, Yunfeng nodded involuntarily, because there was indeed a possibility, but he added in a low voice: “Inspector Fujimoto, if this is the case, then the lady boss of Kamenoyu is very May be suspected of not knowing it."

From the previous understanding, Aoike Rika and Aoike Genjiro had a very good relationship back then, so if logically speculating, if Aoike Genjiro was going to flee after killing Onda Jinzo, he would secretly tell his wife to know.

"No...no...no! Officer Yun, I believe Lijia must not know about this!!!"

As soon as Yunfeng’s voice fell, Fujimoto Taro said excitedly: “You and Officer Fujimine should have also learned from these two days of contact that Rijia really misses her late husband very much, and that kind of true feeling is a deception. Innocent, she is innocent!"

"As the saying goes, people die for money and birds die for food. If the murder was really reversed, then Genjiro Aoike must have done it himself, and then carried his wife and children with him from Onda Kizo. The ill-gotten gains that came, ran away!"

In response to this, Yunfeng waved his hand and smiled: "Guide Fujimoto, don't be so nervous, I just talk about it casually."

It seems that Taro Fujimoto, the old inspector, is really interesting to the surviving Rika Aoike, and he will protect her in this way.

However, what the other party said was also quite right. Even if Yunfeng used his micro-expression skills to see, Qingchi Lijia's miss for her late husband was true.

After hearing Yunfeng’s words, Fujimoto Taro sighed a little bit of relief, and said again on the matter: "Oh, it’s a pity that I was just a little kid back then, no one would listen to my opinion, and Genjiro Aoike didn’t. Photos and other things, even after I went back, there was no way to investigate. In the end, the murder incident 22 years ago became a big regret in my heart."

After hearing this, Fujimine Yukiko, who has been sitting quietly with Yun Feng, couldn't help but ask curiously: "Hey, I heard the boss’s wife say that Genjiro Aoike was a very famous silent film narrator in Kobe and Osaka. How come there are no photos?"

"It is precisely because of this that there are no photos left..."

Hearing Kiko’s question, Fujimoto Taro couldn’t help but shook his head and sighed: “Back then, Genjiro Aoike’s parents were very decent people, but to put it bluntly, he cares about his own face, so he is very opposed to his son’s silent film commentary. A member of the clown profession that was considered by most people at the time to be grandstanding. Therefore, after Aoike Genjiro and his wife Aochi Lijia returned to settle in the Guishou Village, his parents burned all the photos so that his son could inherit Kame no Yu, live honestly."

Chapter 1817 the identity of the skinny old woman

Today's "Kame no Yu" dinner time is very early, because after dinner, Aoike Rijia will go to the funeral of Yura's family.

Yura's family is one of the two major families in the Guishou Village. After the unfortunate death of Yura Yasuko, a grand funeral ceremony will naturally be held.

Tonight, basically every household in the village will attend the funeral at Yura’s house. Naturally Aochi Rika will be no exception. Yunfeng and Fujimine Yukiko also decided to go together. After all, the people in this village are very enthusiastic. , They can't lose courtesy.

...

At more than eight o'clock in the evening, in the mourning hall established by the Yura family.

Yunfeng and Youxizi, like the villagers around to attend the funeral, wore a black and white coarse linen. This is the standard clothing for funerals held in Guishou Village. They naturally have to go to the village to do the same, but the two just put on linen. It's only on the body.

Ahead, a monk wearing a monk's robe is earnestly doing rituals for Yura Yasuko in the coffin, which once again made Yunfeng secretly feel that Guishou Village is just a small wilderness village that is almost isolated from the world, but it is There are all kinds of characters.

In addition to monks, there are also many professional villagers who spontaneously help Yura’s family to hold funerals. For example, Kamenoyu’s proprietress Aoike Rijia is responsible for pouring wine for the guests who come to the funeral. Drinking sake seems to be the same in the village. One of the customs.

During the dinner, Yunfeng and the others heard the most talk about the death of Yura Yasuko and the disappearance of Tara Fangan...

"Taizi... she seemed to be taken away by a strange old woman..."

"Really... terrible..."

"What, Lilin?! Didn't she have died long ago?! Why would she still appear in our village?!"

"Did Officer Yun and Officer Fujimine see it with their own eyes? Ah... Could it be wrong? After all, the two of them have never seen Lilin..."

Hearing some villagers even talk about himself and You Xizi, Yun Feng couldn't help but shook his head. It seems that because of the two consecutive incidents, Guishou Village has been in an uneasy and tense atmosphere. Can't be quiet and peaceful anymore.

At this moment, the sliding paper door of the mourning hall slowly opened, and an old woman with gray hair, probably at least 80 years of age, short and skinny, and trembling even walking, walked in. Is struggling to get to the upper position.

Looking at Yunfeng’s weird look, Fujimoto Taro on the other side thought he did not know the old woman, so he quickly introduced in a low voice: “Officer Yun, the old woman’s name is Yura Goyoko, and she belongs to Yura Yasuko. grandmother."

Yura's five hundred sons?

Hearing this, Yun Feng nodded slowly, but he was quite surprised, because this Yura Five Hundred Sons was exactly the one standing at the entrance of the village that he and Yu Xizi had just arrived in Guishou Village that night. The skinny old woman singing handball songs under the tree.

When Yunfeng quietly told Fujimine Yukiko about this matter, Yukiko was also very surprised. He didn't expect that the first person they met when they came to Guishou Village turned out to be the Yura family who has been living in their old age. Madam, think about it, it should be Yura Wubaizi who usually can't bear to be alone in the house, so he went to the village at night to remember his childhood.

After all, according to the words of Duoruo Luo Fang'an, that weird handball song should be a very early nursery rhyme. People under a certain age don’t know how to sing it. As far as Yunfeng knows, it seems that there is only the old village at present. Nagato Yura 500 will sing.

Because of the respect for the guests in the village, Yunfeng, Yukiko, and Fujimoto Taro are all sitting in the upper position, and Yura Wubaiko, as the elder of the Yura family, naturally sat next to them, looking at this. Like an old woman with a dead oil lamp, Yun Feng couldn't help but tentatively asked: "Old lady, do you know that there is a kind of flower called'village killer' in Guishou Village?"

First, Yunfeng and Fujimine Yukiko squinted with muddy eyes, and then Yura Wubaizi nodded and said kindly:
