Damuheiling, the place indicated by the blood letters this time, although an investigation was conducted in advance, there were very few clues, and no specific situation could be found out.
Yeshen Village is located in the hinterland of Damuheiling Mountain, and it is also the only place on the mountain where there are people.
"This village has existed since the early days of the Showa era." The old man Hirata said as he walked, "Therefore, there are still many very old buildings left. If you are interested, you can take a look. Well, in front of it is the Matsuda Hot Spring Hotel gone."
Kamiya Sayoko glanced at the front door of the hotel. The hotel was a big three-story house, and the area was not very large. However, the residents had no idea of enjoying it at all, and they were content to have a place to live.
Opening the sliding door of the hotel, at the front counter, a middle-aged woman wearing a purple kimono and heavy makeup immediately bowed and said with a smile, "Welcome."
It seems that there are often tourists here, and the woman has no doubts about the strange faces of Kamiya Sayoko and others. In fact, Ye Shen Village is indeed introduced in the nearby travel brochures, but it is not a particularly famous tourist place.
"Gentleman." The old man Hirata said with a smile, "How many tourists here are from China, huh? Where's Goro? Is he not here?"
The middle-aged woman named Junzi smiled and said, "Wu Lang? I don't know, I didn't see him this afternoon. You just said, these are guests from China?"
Sayoko Kamiya walked to the counter and said in Japanese: "Hi, lady boss... My name is Kamiya."
"Huh? Are you Japanese?"
"Yes, but these are all from China."
The gentleman looked at Pei Qingyi and the others curiously, nodded, opened the record book on the table, and asked, "So, how many rooms do you want?"
After choosing the room, the proprietress warmly took them to the room on the first floor. Because considering the convenience when escaping, the first floor is the most convenient.
Open the door, and inside is a room covered with tatami mats. The room is not big, with a rectangular tea table in the middle and a cushion for sitting on the four sides. The outside is directly connected to the courtyard, and there is a large goldfish pond in the courtyard. When the breeze blew past, several wind chimes hanging on the door kept ringing.
Frankly speaking, the air here is really good, much better than in big cities.
"How about this room?" The proprietress smiled and said, "Because there are a lot of vacant rooms in the hotel now, if you are not satisfied, I can change it for you."
"No need." Sayoko Kamiya nodded with great satisfaction, she paid for the accommodation alone.
After moving the luggage into the room, Kamiya Sayoko walked into the courtyard and took a deep breath. She raised her head to look at the setting sun, her eyes gradually dimmed.
The contact between Li Yong and her has been completely severed. Because what Li Yong is going to do next does not require her, the detective, to intervene, so after remitting a sum of money to her account, he sent an email to her, stating that her work has ended, and in the future any The occasion will not admit any contact with her, and also said that he has found out the truth of Ying Qingli's death, and she does not need to continue the investigation.
Sayoko Kamiya walked to the goldfish pond, and when she lowered her head to look down at the pond, she saw Pei Qingyi's reflection.
"Is it time to be in a daze now? Ms. Detective?" Pei Qingyi said in fluent Japanese: "We are here to find a way to get tips on how to survive. Go and contact the villagers. Also, Yizi whose mother is missing, We must focus on the investigation."
"Well, you're right..." Sayoko Kamiya rubbed her temples a few times, and said, "Time is precious now, and it is necessary to find the clues to the way of life as soon as possible before the supernatural phenomenon occurs."
"Then let's go."
After leaving the Matsuda Hotel, the five decided to split up. Sayoko Kamiya and Sima Zhen were in a group, Pei Qingyi, Sui Wenbin, and Wu Xuanlin were in a group. After all, someone who can speak Japanese was always needed.
Ye Shen Village is actually quite large. Although the village has already used tap water, wells can still be seen from time to time. This village has a large proportion of elderly people. Many villagers are older than 60 years old, but you can often see some teenage children.
When Pei Qingyi and the two new residents behind him walked in the village, they attracted many villagers' attention. After all, the population of this village is less than a thousand, so it is easy to recognize new faces. However, it did not cause much reaction. It seems that Ye Shen Village often has foreign tourists.
"Tourists, right?" A refined-looking young man said to a short-haired girl beside Pei Qingyi more than ten meters behind him, "Did you hear what they said just now? They seem to be Chinese, right?"
"Really?" The short-haired girl said in surprise: "I really didn't see it. By the way, Kazuya, Yiko seems to be acting strange recently? She has become very nervous, and she dare not talk too much when she sees us .”
"It's a little weird." The young man called Kazuya shook his head and said, "Harumi, I actually wanted to tell you something, so I asked you to come out."
"What's the matter?" The short-haired girl named Harumi asked with her big bright eyes shining, "Speak quickly if you have something to say, don't hesitate."
"Actually, Yizi... she told me a very strange thing last night. Although I didn't pay attention to it at first, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that she was not lying. She told me..."
After Kazuya finished speaking, Harumi's eyes widened, and it took a while to realize, "No, no way? That kind of thing..."
"Maybe." The elegant young man named Kazuya said, "However, Yiko doesn't seem to be lying. Anyway, be as careful as possible."
Kamiya Sayoko and Sima Zhen came to the door of Yizi's house at this time. On the door plate, there is a nameplate of "Mu Nei".
"Really want to go in?" Sima Zhen shrank a little: "No, there must be ghosts hidden inside..."
"Ghosts will appear anywhere in this Great Twilight Ridge." Kamiya Sayoko said with a calm expression, "The apartment will not leave us with any safe dead corner, so give up. If you are afraid, stay outside .”
Sima Zhen gritted his teeth and said, "Where is this going? Let's go in together."
Just as Kamiya Sayoko stretched out her hand and was about to ring the doorbell, she suddenly heard a voice from behind: "Excuse me... are you here to find Yizi?"
Sayoko Kamiya turned her head, and what she saw was an exceptionally handsome man with outstanding temperament. The man was tall, with a handsome eyebrow, eyes like dark blue lake water, a tall nose bridge and slightly pursed lips. No matter how you look at it, he is a standard handsome boy who can make any girl crazy.
"Are you..." Kamiya Sayoko also stopped her hand in the air, and asked, "Are you also Miss Kiuchi's friend?"
"Well, who are you?"
Sayoko Kamiya immediately replied: "Hello, my name is Sayoko Kamiya, and I am...a detective."
"Sayako Kamiya?" The handsome man showed a surprised expression, looked at Sayoko Kamiya in a daze, and said, "Is that the famous female detective in Kyoto?"
"You know me?" Sayoko Kamiya immediately showed a joyful expression: "That's great, I didn't expect someone here to know me..."
"Of course." The handsome man showed a lonely expression: "Before my wife died, I always admired you. She is from Kyoto."
"This, this way..."
"However, you are such a famous detective, why did you come here? To investigate a case?" The handsome man asked suspiciously: "And how did you know Yizi?"
Kamiya Sayoko immediately replied: "Actually, I don't know Ms. Kiuchi yet. I came here because I wanted to find out something. Are you a friend of Ms. Kiuchi?"
"Well, we have been playing since we were young. My surname is Kamihara, Kamihara Masami."
Masami Kanbara walked to the door and rang the bell. After a while, the door was slowly opened, revealing a very tired face with deep dark circles and fear in the eyes.
"Masaomi..." Seeing Masato Kamihara, Kiuchi Yoshiko felt at ease, but suddenly saw Sayoko Kamiya again, and said tremblingly, "You...is that you?"
"What? Have you guys met?" Masato Kamhara turned his head to look at Sayoko Kamiya, and said, "Miss Kamiya, didn't you say you don't know Yiko?"
"When I first entered Ye Shen Village, I met Miss Kiuchi once."
After listening to her explanation, Kamihara Masami finally understood. But now Yizi looks like a frightened bird, her face is full of fear.
"She... came from outside the village," she said suddenly, "Yachen, don't let her in, don't let her in!"
"No." Kamihara Masami quickly explained: "Listen to me, Yiko, Ms. Kamiya is a detective from Kyoto, do you remember? The detective Miyo admired the most during her lifetime."
"You mean..." Upon hearing this, Yizi began to look carefully at Sayoko Kamiya, and the guard on her face gradually melted away. But even so, she still didn't fully open the door.
"What are you afraid of?" Kamiya Sayoko said straight to the point, "Did you see something incredible?"
Sima Zhen on the side, because they spoke Japanese, couldn't understand what they were saying at all, so he didn't understand why Yoshiko Kiuchi seemed so scared. Although he watched many Japanese cartoons before entering the apartment, he could understand at most a few words, and it was impossible to understand a large dialogue.
He immediately interrupted and asked: "Miss Kamiya, what are you talking about? Please translate it for me..."
"Are you... Chinese?" Masami Kamihara was a little surprised.
"Yachen, come in. But I don't want to talk to them." Yizi's guard still remained undiminished, and she said, "I, I don't want to..."
Sima Zhen barely understood this sentence, and immediately said to Sayoko Kamiya: "Miss Kamiya, doesn't it mean she doesn't want to see us? No, I..."
By this time, the sky had completely darkened. The entire Great Twilight Ridge fell into silence.
"Yiko doesn't seem to be in a good mental state."
Masami Kamhara and Sayoko Kamiya were walking on the road near Yoshiko Kiuchi's house. He deliberately looked at Sayoko Kamiya a few more times and sighed, "If my wife Miyo is still alive, I will be very excited to see you..."
"That's really a pity..."
"What exactly do you want to investigate?" Masami Kamhara stopped suddenly and asked, "You just asked Yizi about the incredible thing, which means..."
"Well, I can't go into too much detail. It's just..." Sayoko Kamiya couldn't go on anymore. She suddenly took out a pen, tore off a piece of note paper, wrote down her mobile phone number, and handed it Gave it to Masami Kamihara, and said, "Mr. Kamihara, if you notice something weird and incomprehensible, please call me."
Then, she looked at the house of Kiuchi Yiko's family, with a hint of depth in her eyes.
"Anyway, please..."
