Conan reborn as a detective

Chapter 689 The Fatty Died Without Watching
In the riding and archery practice field in the mountains and forests, there is a row of targets erected by the side of the road. Long Weijing gallops on horseback. After hitting several targets one after another, the last arrow misses the target and lands on the mat tied to the tree behind.

Long Weijing was stunned, stopped and was about to turn around to check, Hattori and Takashiro walked along the road, and together with Torita Yui who was in a complicated mood.

"Mr. Ah Jing," Hattori yelled, "Go back early, everyone is worried about you, and besides, your wife just passed away, so it won't be effective if you practice restlessly..."

"No," Long Weijing got off his horse and walked towards the archery target, "The celebration is approaching, so we can't neglect our practice. Archers on horseback must try our best to protect them. We all swore in front of the tomb of Senior Kai. This is also my wife Aya. Hua's wish...

"And I didn't miss the shot because I was distracted. You see, the tree is facing the ground of the target, and the target has been moved..."

Gao Cheng followed and approached, and saw a hollow next to the arrow target in front of the tree, which was obviously where the target was originally inserted. According to the situation, it should have hit the bull's-eye.

"Who would do such a thing?"

Gao Cheng searched in the woods, and found many messy footprints, it seems that a group of people left not long ago.

"Probably someone from the next door village," Long Weijing said with no surprise, "It should be to make me lose confidence..."

"why?"

"Because it is related to the reputation of the village, this celebration has been co-hosted by the two villages for generations, but there is only one person in the riding and archery performance that is the climax of the celebration..."

Hu Tianyuyi clasped his arms and explained: "That is to say, as long as Ajing, who won the preliminaries and became the representative of our village, is defeated before the final, the protagonist of the celebration will become a member of their village and become the most popular villager of the year. beautiful people...

"Counting from Mr. Kai, our village has been engaged in riding and archery for more than ten years."

"Is there such a thing?"

Gao Cheng checked the footprints carefully, and they were quite unfamiliar, at least they seemed to have nothing to do with the Hutian Longwei family.

I didn't expect that there were outsiders involved...

"Is the preliminaries held in the village?"

"Yes, the same shrine is used as the venue for the celebration, and 10 targets are placed at equal distances. The hit rate of the game will determine the winner." Yui Hutian looked at Longwei Jing, "Six years ago, Mr. A Jing Both Mr. Kai and Mr. Kai hit all goals, and the result was that it was impossible to tell the winner until dark, so we had to re-compete the next day, but Mr. Kai disappeared after that..."

Long Weijing's face darkened slightly: "After the tie that day, Senior Kai said that he would continue to practice sweating. Compared with him, I was too tired to move. If I continue to compete the next day, I must be the loser... ..."

"It's already dark and you still go out to practice?"

"Yeah, as long as you accurately grasp the position of the target, senior can hit it even with your eyes closed. This is also the goal of our training..."

Gao Cheng looked at the place where the target was missed. It would be fine if the target did not shift. It seems that the training is indeed about the touch, so only people want to destroy it.

After a pause, Gao Cheng asked, "I heard that the Kai patrolman missed a shot at the previous celebration, didn't he?"

"It was a previous celebration," Long Weijing said angrily. "I investigated afterwards, and the position of the target moved during the celebration. It must be because of the conspiracy of those guys in the next village. They moved their hands and feet in order to embarrass the seniors, just like before. !"

Seeing Longweijing's performance, Gao Cheng lightly pressed the notebook on his body.

Six years ago, it seemed that only Longweijing and the people from the next village had conflicts with Jiafei Patrol. Longweijing was even more suspected, after all, the game was not over yet.

The content of the notes also refers to this part.

In order for the exhausted Longweijing to win, the four planned to use flames to frighten the horses while Jiafei was practicing, so that Jiafei fell off the horse and was injured, but they did not expect that the horses were more frightened than expected, and ran away. The four then chased after him and found that Jia Fei had fallen off the cliff with his horse and man.

Of course, six years later, Yoshiro, among the four, felt that something had happened after the horses ran away, and the murderer might be someone else.

Gao Cheng was still thinking, and Hattori next to him couldn't wait to ask: "Mr. A Jing, when you came out to find Miss Linghua in the morning, did you and Mrs. Darong come out together? Is Mrs. Darong there for anyone else?"

"Well," Long Weijing said in a daze, "Because I was too anxious, I rode directly into the woods... Mrs. Darong should be alone, right?"

……

"Boom!"

In the evening, the sky changed again in the mountains, and the thunder sounded like it was about to rain at any time. Officer Yamato's subordinates covered the murder scene with bamboo mats and ran to Hutian's house again.

"The police still have to come to the house to investigate? It's been a whole day of investigation today, isn't it enough?"

"That's right," Tariyo Torata dissatisfied, "Mr. Police Officer is too much, even suspecting that we killed Ms. Linghua..."

Facing the accusations of everyone in the Hutian family, the police officer explained helplessly: "Because there are still doubts, we plan to check every corner carefully, and Officer Yamato... He said that starting tomorrow, he will bring more than a dozen people from the identification department and search personnel. I personally live here to investigate, Mr. Fanci is also very dangerous now, isn't he?"

Hutian Fanji was full of resentment because he couldn't walk away. He heard the words and muttered: "I've said that I have no problem. Compared with this, why don't you go to the next village to investigate?"

"Of course we have to investigate, but it's too late now, and Officer Yamato has to go to Longwei's house to check the situation..."

"When will the investigation last?" Hutian Darong said worriedly, "We don't want to live with the police all the time..."

"Officer Yamato said that at least we have to wait until the end of the celebration, because those people in the next village might make trouble for the celebration..."

"why is it like this?"

The Hutian couple were not very happy.

"Do you mean to stay for three or four days?"

"It won't take so long." Gao Cheng approached Xiao Ai to ask about the situation of Hutian's house, and took out his notebook and smiled when he saw this, "I have almost figured out the cause of this serial killing incident. The police officer is very calm, I believe the murderer will be found out soon!"

"Ah!" Hutian Fanji exclaimed, "Isn't this the notebook we use for treasure hunting? Why is it here with you?"

"I happened to find it when I passed by in the morning," Gao Cheng turned to Torata Shigeji and said, "There is not only the treasure hunting process, but also the clues to the murder of a policeman in Kai six years ago, Mr. Let's talk."

This fat man is too dull, and he might have been killed by the murderer at other times. As for the possibility that the fat man is the murderer or an accomplice, if that is the case, Ayaka Ryuo could not have waited until now to be killed.

And if the fat man wants to make a profit... This is really overestimating the fat man. Gao Cheng can see that this fat man has never thought about anything other than treasure hunting.
