The hostility between the Torada and Ryūbi families has lasted for who knows how many years. Every child will be taught to be hostile to the other by the elders in the family from the time they are born.
It's just that now the two families can't even remember why they were hostile to each other, only the habitual hatred left for the two families to criticize each other.
Of course, this is just the previous generation, and now the younger generation of the two families seems not to be interested in the grudges between the previous generation.
There are only two big families in the village, Hu Tian and Long Wei, and the children from the two families naturally play together.
It's a pity that there are five young people in the two families. One of them died in an accident and the other was murdered, so two of them have gone away.
The people of the Torada family knew that their relationship with the Ryuubi family was not harmonious. When Ryuubi Linghua hid in the bathroom and couldn't scream no matter how hard he screamed, they had no choice but to contact the Ryuubi family and ask them to give their family to him.
Take it back.
After receiving a call from the Torada family, the entire Ryuubi family arrived, including Ryuubi Linghua's husband Ryuubikage, the head of the Ryuubi family, Ryuushi Shi, and the nearly eighty-year-old Shi's mother, Ryuubio Mori.
All the generations were present and not a single one was left behind.
When Ehara and Koshimi Nanatsuki came out of the room, they happened to see Tatsuo's house because no one responded in the bathroom, and they were about to use the backup key to force the door open.
After getting the information he wanted to know from Ehara's mouth, Koshimi Nanatsuki looked satisfied.
"Huh? Haven't Miss Ling Hua been called out by them yet?"
Koshimizu Nanatsuki looked puzzled at the old lady Ryuubi Moriyo who was having a one-on-one argument with the Torada family. Even though the old lady was about to turn eighty today, she still had a sharper tongue than many young people.
The two of them have been in the room for a while, but they didn't expect that Longwei Linghua was still in the bathroom and wouldn't come out... So the bathroom is a safe zone?
"Here's the key!" A maid hurriedly ran to the bathroom door with the key in hand. After getting the instruction from Naobu Torada, she used the key to open the bathroom door.
The wooden door was slowly opened by the maid, but the scene inside shocked everyone present - Longwei Linghua, who was supposed to be shivering in the bathroom, was now missing!
There was only a solitary pair of slippers left on the floor in the bathroom.
"Where did you people from the Torada family take my daughter-in-law?!" This situation suddenly broke out for the old lady Moriyo Ryuubi, and the good-looking person disappeared in such a short time!
The Nagano Prefecture Police Detective Captain and Gansuke, who came to the Torada family to investigate the case of Tatsuo Koji (the one who was buried in the ground and beaten to death), the Nagano Prefecture Police Department's detective captain, and Gansuke's expressions darkened.
After Yamato Kansuke arrived, he heard about the abnormality of Ryuubi Linghua. He was experienced and immediately realized that Ryuubi Linghua must know some unknown clues.
Originally, he wanted to wait for Ryuubi Linghua to come out of the bathroom and stabilize his mood before questioning him, but what Yamato Kansuke didn't expect was that in just a short time, a living person disappeared out of thin air!
"That's..." Yamato Gansuke, who only had one eye left, looked up at the ventilation window in the bathroom. This was the only place in the bathroom where he could not leave through the front door.
If you are a woman, you can leave through the ventilation window.
"Where does that window lead to?" Conan and Hattori Heiji also noticed the window in the bathroom, so Conan took the lead in asking Torada Shigeji next to him.
"Because the bathroom is built against the wall...if you climb out of the window, you should be on the back mountain..."
"Back mountain..." Yamato Gansuke's heart thumped when he heard this, and a bad premonition came over him. He hurriedly gave orders to everyone: "Everyone who can move, hurry up to the mountain to look for Longwei Ling."
Hua! In addition, inform the people of the Longwei family that if Longwei Linghua comes home, let them know as soon as possible!"
After saying that, Yamato Gansuke took the lead and walked up the mountain.
"What should we do? Should we also go up the mountain to look for Miss Ling Hua?" The Hutian family was suddenly deserted, leaving only a few maids to stay at home to ensure that someone could inform everyone on the mountain when Dragon Tail Ling Hua returns.
Koshimizu Nanatsuki looked at Ehara who was looking at him with little interest. She didn't understand that if he were a detective, he should be very motivated at this moment. Just like Kogoro Mouri, Heiji Hattori or Conan just now.
Why doesn't Jiang Yuan seem interested at all...
"Let's go, let's go look for it in the mountains. Maybe we can find Miss Ling Hua if we're lucky~" Jiang Yuan waved his hand and led the way.
Of course he was not interested, although when he first arrived, Ehara Ehara didn't know what the case was this time. However, when the restaurant owner mentioned the priest and Hattori Heiji, Ehara immediately understood.
The murderer of this series of murders was Naobu Torada's second wife, Tatsuei Torada.
As for the motive of killing, it's not that complicated, it's just about profit.
Gambling is a very popular form of entertainment in rural areas where there are few forms of entertainment. The form of gambling does not necessarily require gambling equipment.
The riding and archery performance held during the annual sacrifice in the village is the best vehicle for gambling.
However, the previous village patrolman Kabi Gento who performed horseback riding and archery in Ryuubikage was very skilled in bow and horse, and had never failed to perform at the festival for many years.
The most important thing about gambling is uncertainty. Kai Gento always hits the mark every year, even if the villagers participating in the gambling are stubborn, there is no way that he will not win.
That's not because I tried my best to turn my bicycle into a motorcycle, it's simply because I have a bad mind.
Because of Kai Gento's relationship, Torada Tatsuei's gambling can no longer proceed.
In desperation, Tatsuei Torada had no choice but to find a way to have Kai Gento injured before the sacrifice, so that a new person could be put on stage to perform horseback shooting, and the betting could continue as usual.
So Torada Tatsuei took advantage of Kai Gento's horseback shooting practice in the mountains and suddenly fired a shot at the foot of the horse with a shotgun. The horse was so frightened that it rushed directly towards the cliff!
Just when Torada was shocked and ready to leave secretly, four young men suddenly rushed out of the forest and stood on the cliff looking down, saying that they had killed someone.
Tatsuei Torada never dreamed that someone would take the blame for such a thing as murder... There were four of them at once!
Since someone wanted to admit this matter, Tatsuei Koda naturally would not refuse, and simply left secretly from the mountains, hiding the matter in his heart.
These four people are young people of the Torada family and the Tatsuo family.
Their playmate since childhood, Ryuubikage, is also practicing riding and archery every day, hoping to become a horseman and archer at the festival. However, Kai Gento's shooting is so accurate that Ryuubikage doesn't show up for a while.
Opportunity.
So the four of them decided to use fire to frighten Kai Gento's horse while he was in contact, so that Kai Gento would be injured a little so that his playmate could get on smoothly.
As a result, they happened to collide with Tatsuei Torada when they were taking action...
