After hearing Karasawa's words, Koshizui Nanatsuki also reacted: "Indeed, this seems to be off topic."
"Since ancient times, the death and disappearance of people are no small matter, so whenever something bizarre and unexplainable happens, people will contact ghosts and gods."
Tang Ze smiled when he said this and said: "But the rumors are also based on reality. For example, everyone in this villa has disappeared. Logically speaking, it should be called the "Shenyin House" or the "Man-Eating House" or something like that.
And if it's a haunted house, it means seeing ghosts, or curses killing people, or monsters killing people."
"No wonder I feel like I'm off topic." Koshimizu Nanatsuki suddenly said: "It turns out it's because reality is different from the legend."
"That's right."
Tang Ze smiled and said: "This also makes me more convinced that this rumor is man-made.
I’m afraid the person who spun this legend didn’t even realize that he had made a mistake in a small detail.”
"However, for many people, the distinction is not so clear." Koshizui Nanatsuki said: "And there are also people who say that Mrs. Miura's ghost is causing trouble."
"Legends are always full of mystery, and investigations require down-to-earth research."
Tang Ze watched the busy people walking out: "Let's go, we are not needed here for the time being, go and investigate elsewhere."
"Then where should we go first? To Miura's house, or to investigate the news about the missing Mr. Kanai Shoji first." Koshizui Nanatsuki asked.
"We originally came to investigate missing cases, so naturally we gave priority to the latter."
Tang Ze selected the target and started the car: "Before, you only talked about the continuous disappearance of that house. Now tell me the specific reasons why the other party disappeared."
"Mr. Kanai went to the Miura family's abandoned villa for work."
As a famous southern detective, Koshimizu Nanatsuki's memory is a basic skill. He quickly sorted out his memories and recounted: "As for the person who entrusted him with the investigation, it was the company's superiors."
"The boss reported the disappearance?" Tang Ze heard this and said: "But generally, disappearances should be reported by relatives, right?"
"Senior, you really like to pay attention to details."
Hearing this, Koshizui Nanatsuki said: "I think it doesn't matter if his boss reports the crime. After all, it is the work he entrusted to Mr. Kanai."
"Well, let's ask the boss first and see what he says."
After driving to the club where Kanai Shoji works, the two revealed their identities and were personally entertained by the other party's boss, Moritani Kazuhiro.
Tang Ze also asked the question that he was concerned about before and got the answer from the other party.
It turned out that Shoji Kanai had no family or relatives, so his boss called the police when he saw that he had not come to work for several days and could not be contacted.
"That's it, senior." Koshimizu Nanatsuki shrugged: "You care too much about details, so you can easily become neurotic."
"Are you neurotic?"
Tangze smiled and did not answer, but looked at the boss and said: "When you reported the crime, you said that Kanai went to that house to investigate. What exactly did he do?"
"do what..."
Hearing this, Moritani Kazuhiro explained: "Actually, that room is now under our management, so there are regular inspections."
"I see there are a lot of evil-proofing charms and other things stuck in there..." Koshizui Nanatsuki looked at Moritani Kazuhiro and hesitated, "Those are..."
"That's what we posted."
Hearing this, Sheng Gu and Hong directly admitted the matter: "Actually, because someone disappeared there two years ago, we thought it would be bad if there were any strange rumors again."
Speaking of this, Sheng Gu and Hong leaned on the sofa with a look of helplessness on their faces: "After all, that house has been difficult to sell since it was entrusted to us..."
"Is it difficult to sell?" Tang Ze asked after hearing this: "Is it a ghost?"
"No, no, it's a more realistic problem."
Sheng Gu and Hong waved their hands and explained: "Isn't this very close to the nearby library?
A little further away is Didan Elementary School, so it is rumored that this place will be included in the scope of the Education and Educational District."
"Education Department?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki said blankly: "What is that?"
"When educational institutions such as schools are concentrated in nearby areas, buildings that are not conducive to educational development will be restricted."
Sheng Gu and Hong said: "Many entertainment facilities will not be allowed to be built. It can be said that more than half of the land use has been restricted."
"I see, thank you for clarifying my doubts." Tang Ze nodded suddenly and then changed his voice: "But because of the rumor that the house has not been sold for so long, will the owner of the villa be very distressed?"
"Well, you said he is the owner of the villa..." Sheng Gu and Hong smiled and said, "Although he is definitely angry, he is not very short of money."
"I see."
Karasawa nodded understandingly: "We will continue to investigate Mr. Kanai. In addition, do you have Mr. Miura's contact information?
We have something we want to talk to him about."
"Mr. Miura is hospitalized."
Hearing this, Shenggu Hehong shouted outside and asked his secretary to bring over the client contact book. After reading it, he said: "He is currently being treated at Mihua Private Hospital."
"Is that so? Thank you very much."
The questions were almost finished, and Tang Ze and the other two drove directly to the hospital without much entanglement.
"I didn't expect that I was hospitalized. The boss said that visiting hours are from 10 to 11 in the morning. It's now 10:30. We can still make it in time if we go quickly."
Koshimizu Nanatsuki put the siren on the roof of the car and turned it on. After sitting down, he quickly urged: "Senior, I have turned on the siren. Please drive faster."
"I think this speed is fast enough in the city. Are you sure you want to go faster?"
Karasawa looked at Nanatsuki Koshizui with a strange look on his face: "If you go faster, the comfort will not be guaranteed."
"Oh, we race against time when investigating a case. If we can't visit today, it will be postponed until tomorrow."
As he spoke, Kishui Nanatsuki stood ready and said: "You speed up, I'm sure I'll be fine."
"Well, I hope you won't regret it."
Tangze's face showed a smile of success. The next moment, he put the gear into gear and stepped on the accelerator. The whole car shot out like an arrow from the string.
"ah!!!"
Seeing that the car was about to hit the rear of a truck that was moving normally in front of him, Koshimizu Nanatsuki screamed: "Bring the brakes quickly, we're about to hit you!"
However, Tangze, who was in the driver's seat, did not panic at all when faced with such childish behavior. He easily overtook the car at this terrifying speed, and then used every opportunity to continuously overtake the vehicle in front of him.
He hasn't driven a car for a long time, and the people in his car have always asked for stability, so since this is Meng Xin's request, he naturally has to fulfill his wish.
So the originally 20-minute drive took only 10 minutes at Karasawa's extreme speed to reach Miurao's hospital.
"vomit..."
Koshimizu Nanatsuki stumbled out of the car with a pale face, covered his mouth, and breathed in the fresh air.
"Oh, that's good, I didn't vomit."
Karasawa looked at Koshikoshi Nanatsuki and patted the other party on the back, then handed him a bottle of mineral water: "Yes, it seems that young people have good adaptability. I went to the amusement park to ride roller coasters and the like, and I gained resistance.
?"
"I...I should have vomited on your car!"
Koshizui Nanatsuki seemed to have recovered after drinking some water, and glared at Karasawa fiercely.
"You had no chance to vomit at that time."
Tangze shrugged and said, "It's just like riding a roller coaster. By the time your body reacts, you'll already be off."
"I'm in trouble!" Koshimizu Nanatsuki said fiercely: "Let's go! Hurry up and ask questions!"
She did not settle the score with Tang Ze again. After all, she was the one who asked Tang Ze to drive faster, and she could only bear the consequences.
After asking at the front desk of the hospital, everyone came to the single luxury ward where Miura was located.
"It seems that all your decisions are in vain."
Karasawa looked at the "No Meetings" sign hanging in front of the ward, smiled and looked at Nanatsuki Koshimizu, who was looking a little crazy.
It was already painful enough, but what made me even more devastated was that all I had done was useless. How could this not make me crazy?
"A body found!?"
Just when Koshimizu Nanatsuki was about to speak, a strong male voice suddenly came from the ward.
Koshizui Nanatsuki's eyes lit up when he heard the sound, and he went straight forward and knocked on the door.
"I told you to sell it as soon as possible. It's been three years and you haven't sold it yet, you idiot!"
The shouts and curses in the room were heard again, and Koshimizu Nanatsuki's knock on the door was ignored.
"That's enough, just sell it to me quickly!"
Listening to the old man's irritable words inside, Koshizui Nanatsuki and Karasawa looked at each other and directly opened the door to the ward.
An old man with gray hair who had his back to them hung up the phone and turned around when he heard the noise.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing Karasawa and Koshimizu Nanatsuki standing at the door, Miura seemed very rude: "Didn't you see the sign saying "No Meeting"?"
"Yeah... We feel relieved when we hear your energetic voice, old man."
Koshizui Nanatsuki didn't show any anger in the face of Miurao's shouting. He gave full play to his youthful advantage and got close to him with a playful smile.
"who are you!"
Facing a young man like Koshimi Nanatsuki, no matter how bad Miura's character was, he couldn't drive out this smiling girl.
Although the other party's words were still rude, they were obviously not as strong as before.
Tangze on the side took out his criminal certificate and showed his identity.
"Criminal?" Miura's attitude softened a lot after seeing the criminal certificate: "Is it about the corpse in my house?"
"I'm not jealous." Tang Ze smiled and nodded: "I wonder if I can ask you a few questions."
"Sit down." Miura raised his chin, agreeing with the two people's questions.
Tang Ze glanced around before sitting down and found a picture of a gentle-looking middle-aged woman on the bedside. Considering the previous rumors that his wife had committed suicide, Tang Ze said, "Is this your wife?"
"Yes." Miura nodded, his tone still a little impatient and said: "What's wrong?"
"When did she die?" Tang Ze asked.
"Three years ago." Miura walked to the bed and sat down and said impatiently: "Why do you ask this?"
"Three years ago?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki heard this and said, "It was the same as when the haunted house appeared."
"Haunted house!?"
After hearing Koshimizu Nanatsuki's words, Miura said angrily: "I don't know who the foul-mouthed guy sent the message, letting me know that I will never spare them!"
"Master, don't be angry."
Tang Ze saw that the other party had such a bad temper, so he quickly expressed relief: "You have such a strong body, it's not good if you are angry."
"Stop saying such compliments. Even if I do this, I'm still close to death."
Miura cursed when he said this: "Damn murderer, the villa couldn't be sold in the first place, and now the body is actually found."
"We have already investigated this matter."
Tangze listened to the other party's curse and said at the right time: "The corpse buried in the ground has completely turned into bones.
In other words, the body had been buried in the soil for at least three years.
As the owner of the villa, do you have any clues?
For example, was there anything weird or worth paying attention to at that time?"
But unexpectedly, after hearing Karasawa's question, Miura's face suddenly changed: "Don't talk about corpses in front of a patient, idiot!"
Then Miura got angry and kicked them out, refusing to talk to them anymore.
"I've gained nothing." Koshimizu Nanatsuki said depressedly, "All my previous sins were in vain."
"The result is basically certain that you suffered in vain." Tang Ze shrugged and said, "From the moment you asked me to drive faster, that was the outcome."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go find the nurse who is taking care of him and ask about the situation."
Koshimi Nanatsuki decisively changed this depressing topic: "This old man should have children. Let's get some information and ask about his children's villa."
Because Mihua Private Hospital is a high-end hospital, the service is also first-class, and the nurse lady knows the condition of the patient in charge.
According to what the other party said, Miura had a daughter, but she had never seen him.
He once received a call from his daughter, urging the other party to come and see him, but his daughter did not come, and he has not contacted her since.
However, as the only family member, the hospital still kept the contact number of the other party. After Karasawa asked to call and identify himself, they made an appointment with the other party at a compromise coffee shop to meet the Miura family's daughter.
Although the two of them came to ask for information about the case, Tang Ze was a little concerned about what the nurse said about the relationship between father and daughter, so he asked it as part of a casual conversation.
"Because I'm angry."
Miura Aya said that there was no atmosphere but only sadness on her face: "When my mother passed away, my father didn't even come to see her for the last time.
He was a guy who put his career first. Now before he died, he came to pursue family love. Isn't it a bit ironic?
I don't go to see him because I'm angry about my mother."
"Um, did your father commit suicide?"
Before, the old man who was difficult to communicate with didn't ask any questions, but when he got here, Nanatsuki couldn't help but asked: "I don't know what is the reason that made your father-in-law choose to commit suicide?"
"ha?"
But what she didn't expect was that after hearing what Koshimizu Nanatsuki said, Miura Aya had a look of surprise on her face, as if she had heard something ridiculous.
