stalker
After Hui Lijing confirmed this idea, her eyes lit up.
That kind of radiance is like a substance, even with long and thick bangs as a cover, it is useless.
Jason also noticed a change in the female detective.
Subconsciously, he looked at the female detective.
At this moment, the female detective raised her lips excitedly.
For a female detective, she never worries about accidents.
All she was worried about was the 'unremarkable' of the whole 'case'.
Any accidents represent 'clues'!
Grab such clues, and then kill them—this may be the easiest way to solve the whole 'case'.
This is what her teacher told her when she became a detective.
Hui Lijing always remembers it in her heart.
So, while driving the car, Hui Lijing stretched her hand under the seat.
next moment-
A submachine gun appeared in her hand.
This is the weapon that Hui Lijing re-equipped after discovering that the simpler conventional weapons could not cope with emergencies.
Not just micro punches in the hands.
In the trunk, she also prepared a bazooka.
As Jason said, 'Small caliber doesn't work? Then try the big ones! 'She kept it firmly in her heart.
"Let's give them a good look!"
As Hui Lijing said this, she was about to turn around and shoot, but Jason stopped her with his eyes.
"What's the matter, Jason?"
Hui Lijing asked puzzledly.
She knew that Jason was not a mother-in-law. Since he stopped her, there must be a reason.
"Put a long line and catch big fish."
Jason replied briefly.
"Understood."
Hui Lijing nodded.
Although she didn't think it was necessary, she respected Jason's opinion.
After all, she is just a rookie and rookie in the "inside world" of the 'mysterious side'.
Professional things are left to professional people to do.
Hui Lijing immediately put away the micro punch, and looked forward again.
Of course, Hui Lijing would glance at the rear car mirror from time to time.
The stalker is very professional. If she hadn't discovered the trace of the other party in advance, it would be difficult to find out that she was being followed.
How did Jason find out
perception
intuition
Or skill
Thinking about it, the female detective became excited again.
Because, if it's a skill, it means she can learn.
Ask Jason well afterwards!
After making up such an idea, the female detective began to concentrate on driving.
Jason, on the other hand, sat peacefully in the back row, also without any intention of turning around.
Because Jason knew where the stalkers were coming from.
Blooming home!
The taste of the food 'blessing stone' is too obvious.
If there is only one blessing stone, Jason is still not sure.
However, when the three people in the car were all carrying blessing stones, Jason could already conclude that the other party was from the family of Huakaiyuan——Huakaiyuanqing once said that the "Praying Stone" is a century-old temple that received incense and prayed for blessings. The stone can effectively avoid malicious peeps, and can also scare away most ordinary monsters. Even, if the fate is suitable, it will also bring good luck to the wearer.
Therefore, it has been welcomed by most people from the "mysterious side" and "inside the world".
However, 'blessing stone' is not easy to get.
In the island, apart from the Huakaiyuan family, Tongshou Temple is the only organization that can own a large number of "blessing stones".
These are the original words of Huakai Yuanqing.
The latter, Jason has already confirmed that it is fake.
But the former
Jason was sure it was true.
Because, the old monk of Tongshou Temple also said so.
As for the 'blessing stone' of Tongshou Temple
Master Tongshou Temple of the previous generation was really kind.
Not only to help others survive the crisis, but also to send a "blessing stone" from time to time.
Simply put, it's gone.
In fact, it is not just a 'blessing stone'.
Tongshou Temple's huge family business was also bestowed by the master of Tongshou Temple.
If it wasn't for the instruction of the previous Tongshou Temple master, the previous Tongshou Temple master would definitely be able to send the entire Tongshou Temple away.
Jason declined to comment on this.
Everyone has their own way of life.
However, he was really distressed.
If Tongshou Temple was still the original Tongshou Temple, he would probably accept the title of 'Tongshou Temple Master' calmly, definitely not because of the 'food' that Tongshou Temple has preserved for hundreds of years, or because he just likes this background.
And now
Tongshou Temple, which has no heritage, should be handed over to a talented old monk to guard it.
he
There is no such ability.
There is no such talent.
He is just an ordinary, ordinary person.
Not only love to eat, but also eat.
He can't manage such a huge industry.
He didn't want to prove his idea like Huakai Yuanqing did.
There is no 'ambition' of other branches of Huakaiyuan family.
As long as no one interrupts his meal, he's fine.
Jason thought so honestly.
The two cars are in front and the following car is behind.
Soon, when Uesugi's car turned into a block, the following car stopped.
The sign on the side of the road clearly states—
Private property, please do not trespass.
"hiss!"
"Is this area owned by the Uesugi family?"
Hui Lijing looked at the endless buildings and gasped.
The female detective never knew that there was such a huge private property in the urban area.
When she parked the car just now, she thought she had come to a new block.
"It's all the shadow of my ancestors. I, a guy who lacks ability, never expanded a bit of property. I can only guard these properties and leave them to the people who come later."
Uesugi sighed with regret.
"It's not easy."
It is difficult to start a business, and it is even more difficult to keep a business.
Jason once again thought of the previous Tongshou Temple master.
"No, it's a question of my ability."
"I dare not innovate."
"I can only accept the tradition left behind, just like at this time, I still follow the rules left by my grandfather. After entering here, I choose to go on foot. When I was young, I was scolded by my father once when I was riding a bicycle here. I've stuck with it ever since."
Uesugi said that he once again expressed his apology to Jason and Hui Lijing for the future journey and walking.
"it does not matter."
"Mr. Uesugi, your house is really big!"
"Hey, there is also a gate here?"
After going around a bend and stepping into an uphill arc, Hui Lijing was about to say something when she was suddenly taken aback.
In front of the female detective, another door appeared.
Compared with the iron fence door on the outside before, the door in front of you is taller and taller. The outside is wrapped with iron sheets, and the inside is made of solid wood. More importantly, the wall inlaid with this door...
Is it the city wall
The female detective couldn't help thinking while looking at the 'wall' that was big enough for three people to charge on horseback.
"The family ancestor had some fame in the Warring States Period, so the current ancestral house is the former 'city'—of course, only some buildings in the 'Honmaru' are left, and more buildings have been destroyed."
"Including the former 'castle tower', there is only one floor left."
"Afterwards, it was repaired by our descendants."
"Otherwise, you will be able to see the five-layered 'Tian Shou' on the road just now."
"However, times are advancing."
"Some things, in the past, are in the past."
"We can no longer pursue it."
"At most, it's just a remembrance."
Uesugi sighed.
Obviously, this middle-aged man regretted that the glory of his ancestors was completely lonely.
However, it is also a pity.
And no dissatisfaction.
Coupled with the gentle temperament of this middle-aged man, the communication between the three of them was very pleasant.
Of course, the female detective was communicating with the middle-aged man the whole time.
Jason looked around without saying a word.
This is his habit.
And the female detective cooperated.
As an assistant, it is natural to attract attention.
leftover
Just leave it to Jason.
With this thought in mind, Hui Lijing asked more vigorously.
On the way to the 'ancestral house', she almost inquired about the Uesugi family.
However, there was one thing that she was curious about.
"Mr. Uesugi, why do I see so few servants along the way?"
asked the female detective.
In this huge building complex, apart from the entrance just now, where two young and strong men stood guard, there were very few servants, waiters and the like along the entire journey.
What can be seen are also some elderly uncles and aunts.
This is very rare among rich people.
At least, the female detective has not seen it.
Those families who are a little richer can't wait to hire a class of servants and waiters to show their status.
"They're all at work!"
"There is something special about the Uesugi family. These servants have followed our family for generations, so we are already part of each other-they will start to give a part of the money from the family's 'fund' from birth until they graduate from high school. So far, the family is in charge. Afterwards, if they are admitted to university, the family will also reward a large sum of money for tuition fees for the next four years. When they graduate from university, they will join the Uesugi family business. Most of them are, and even if a few don't want to, it won't make any difference."
"And when you are old, you are naturally retired. The people you just saw are all retired from the family business."
"They will spend their days here, just like their grandparents did."
"And I, like my grandparents, will be responsible to them to the end."
Uesugi explained.
After hearing such words, the female detective was secretly speechless.
Although she hasn't understood it in detail yet, she has inexplicably felt the so-called 'family' atmosphere.
Just when the female detective was about to say something—
"Father!"
A gentle greeting came.
At the corner in front of them, a girl was standing there pretty.
The female detective looked at each other in surprise.
Not only because the other party stood there and she didn't notice it before he spoke, but also because of the other party's height.
The other party was only slightly shorter than her!
Although at a certain stage, female detectives are quite annoying about their height, but female detectives are also inexplicably quite confident about their height.
Even compared to taller men, she stands proudly.
The girl in front of me is only slightly shorter than her, and her height can be imagined.
Moreover, even wearing blue and white sportswear, you can still directly see a trace of muscle lines on the opponent's shoulders, thighs and other positions.
Not only tall, but also has considerable muscles.
Unconsciously, the female detective felt that she was looking in a mirror.
If it wasn't for the fact that the other party's temperament was too mild and his stature was a little shorter.
The female detective was surprised, and so was the girl opposite.
She stared blankly at this girl who was taller than herself, and it took three or four seconds to recover.
Suddenly, the girl's face turned red.
"Sorry, this is my daughter."
"Usually, I seldom be rude. It should be because I haven't had a good rest these days."
"Tora Chiyo, quickly apologize to the two guests."
Aware of his daughter's rudeness, Uesugi apologized repeatedly.
"I am sorry."
The girl named Tiger Chiyo also apologized.
It can be seen that this girl is as well-educated as her father.
"Tora Chiyo why are you here?"
"Didn't I say, wait in the lobby?"
Uesugi asked.
"I'm just curious about the exorcist you found, father, so come and see."
Tiger Chiyo replied like this.
The eyes also turned from Hui Lijing to Jason.
However, after just a glance, he looked at Hui Lijing again.
Although Jason's height and sturdiness amazed her, compared with Hui Lijing, Hui Lijing was still more attractive to her.
Because, she always felt as if she had seen Hui Lijing somewhere.
There is an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Maybe it's height
wrong.
Where should we have met
Tiger Chiyo thought so.
And just when Tiger Chiyo was thinking this way, Hui Lijing spoke directly.
"Where have we met?"
"ah?"
"Sorry, I was thinking the same way, so I exclaimed unconsciously."
"Are you from Echigo High School?"
After Tiger Chiyo exclaimed, he began to ask in a low voice.
"no."
"I'm from 'Yamanashi' High School."
The female detective shook her head regretfully.
However, the communication between the two girls did not end there.
They talked about clothes, movies, songs, even desserts and food in a low voice.
In short, there is nothing but a 'package' like chatting.
When the topic of chatting inexplicably entered "bao", the friendship between the two began to heat up rapidly.
Seeing this scene, Uesugi couldn't help shaking his head.
Women's friendship is so strange.
The middle-aged man sighed.
Then, the other party looked at Jason.
"Tora Chiyo rarely meets friends who can chat well..."
There was a slight embarrassment in the voice, but the meaning couldn't be more obvious.
Uesugi hopes that Hui Lijing can talk more with her daughter.
Jason didn't object to this.
"Is the ancestral house just ahead?"
He just asked like this.
"It's just ahead, I'll take you there."
Uesugi immediately nodded.
Then, the rest of the journey became Jason, Uesugi in front, Hui Lijing and Hu Chiyo in the back.
Jason, who was walking in front, said nothing, and Uesugi couldn't say anything.
Hui Lijing and Hu Chiyo, who were walking behind, chatted more and more passionately.
At this time, Hui Lijing had already told Tiger Chiyo how she used cow dung to teach those boys who bullied her.
"Hey, they must be very afraid of you."
Tiger Chiyo said in a low voice.
"Hmph, guys like that should scare them."
"What's 'Master Bachi', it's not as nice as my baby name."
Hui Lijing said angrily.
"Akira's baby name?"
"What is it?"
Tiger Chiyo asked curiously.
"Well... Katsuchiyo."
"Isn't it weird?"
"Don't laugh, if you laugh, I will get angry."
Hui Lijing emphasized.
Because, this baby name is too boyish.
"Katsuchiyo?"
"very good."
Tiger Chiyo comforted the friend he had just met.
Just when Hui Lijing said her baby name, her sense of inexplicable familiarity became stronger.
We really seem to have met somewhere.
She couldn't help thinking.
Hui Lijing felt similarly.
Jason, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and disappeared in place.
When Jason reappeared, he was already standing behind Hui Lijing and Hu Chiyo.
At this time, a long knife cut out from the shadows just came to the front, the long knife did not stop at all, even though the target of the attack had changed, it still went straight forward.
Just like that, it slashed at Jason's neck.
Then-
clang!
Sparks fly.
The long knife broke.
