The night was dark.

Mana played with a lighter and stood in the shadow of the street corner. This position happened to be able to see the brightly lit police station opposite.

From time to time, uniformed policemen came out to smoke in the alley next to the building. After blowing the cold wind for a while, Mana saw a little girl in pink plaid and hakama with double ponytails wandering around the gate of the police station with a huge lacquer box.

The wind at night was so cold that the thin little girl seemed to be a little unsteady when blown by the wind.

The coat on Mana's body was also fluttering in the wind, and she grabbed the little girl's arm before she wandered around the gate of the police station for the fifth time.

The little girl who was originally thinking and fighting crazily in her head was taken aback, and she was relieved when she noticed that it was a girl older than her who was holding her back.

Mana noticed that the smoking policeman was coming back, so she forcibly pulled the little girl away.

"What do you want to do?" The little girl wanted to struggle, but she was very careful not to break the lacquer box in her hand.

"Kyoda Sakurako, right." Mana raised her hand, her tone was indifferent: "I'm here to save your life, poor lady."

As soon as Mana's words fell, Sakurako Kyoda exploded as if she was stabbed by her: "What do you know? Are you sent to persuade me to shut up? The police station is next door."

"I know that your brother is missing. I also know that you find that strange things often happen in the place where you work. I also know that after a long ideological struggle, you finally want to go to the police station for help."

Mana pointed to the direction of the police station: "I also know that if you go in, you will never be able to get out again." Mana said and lit a cigarette to relieve the backlog of emotions in her heart.

"You, what do you mean?" Jingtian Yingzi, who was dressed thinly, was taken aback by the words of this unknown woman. Her low voice coupled with the biting cold wind made her shiver.

"I mean, you were suspected after your brother disappeared. Just like now, it's both a temptation and a trap." Mana couldn't help shaking her head as she spoke, looking at the lacquer box protected by the little girl.

"When you came out, you must have been assigned a task by someone like a housekeeper, saying that you were going to send the contents of this lacquer box to a certain officer in the police station." Mana said and looked at the lacquer box: "You just Have you ever wondered what is in it?"

"The housekeeper Miyoko said that this is a precious medicine for Chief Mina Naka at the police station, and it will cure Chief Mina's illness." Sakurako Kyoda said confidently, and at the same time she was still very vigilant against this guy who appeared out of nowhere.

"I know you don't believe me, why don't you open the lacquer box and see for yourself." Mana persuaded softly.

Jingtian Yingzi was also moved by the persuasion, she struggled for a few seconds, and then opened the lacquer box.

There were no healing herbs in the well-crafted lacquered boxes, but rolls of pristine Japanese yen.

As expected, Mana couldn't help showing a sarcastic smile.

With so much money, it seems that the treatment is for the poor disease of Chief Mina.

And the medicine will be very effective when the disease is cured.

Seeing the money, Jingtian Yingzi was stunned.

She watched the housekeeper Miyoko put the medicinal materials in with her own eyes, and when she recalled the mother-in-law who kindly patted her on the shoulder and told her to deliver the things safely, Sakurako Kyota's head swelled.

She let go, and Mana caught the lacquer box before it fell to the ground.

The price of such a lacquer box is definitely not cheap, and it's not something that big families can't afford.If there are traces caused by bumps, then everything she's doing now will be in vain.

"If you go in with such a box of banknotes to report the crime, do you think Chief Minina will believe you as a servant?" Mana patiently arranged the messy banknotes, and then smiled at the girl whose eyes had already wavered.

She lowered her voice, as if coaxing the child: "Now you should trust me, I am the only one who can help you."

Kyodo Sakurako hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Good boy." Mana glanced at her watch: "Now, I want you to do the first thing. Pretend you didn't find anything, and go to the police station to deliver medicine as usual."

Cafe.

Kyodo Sakurako looked at the reflection in the coffee cup and said with a heavy heart: "My brother and I were introduced to Sakuragawa's house by the neighbor's aunt three years ago as helpers. My brother was in charge of cleaning the stables. I am in charge of taking care of the young lady's daily life."

"A week ago, my brother and I were preparing for the upcoming celebration of the Sakuragawa family. We had made an appointment to go home together at night, but my brother didn't show up. I asked the housekeeper Miyoko and the servant in charge of the stable, but everyone said that my brother was Because of his hard work, he was appreciated and went to a distant place with a caravan selling medicinal materials, and he would not come back until a month later."

Jingtian Yingzi bit her nails, her face pale: "But I know that's not the case, they are deceiving me. My brother is definitely not the kind of person who will leave without saying a word, without leaving a note."

"And, and I found this in the stove pit." With tears in her eyes, Sakurako Jingtian took out something wrapped in a handkerchief from her arms: it was a piece of linen cloth soaked in blood, and it could be seen from the edge of the unburned side. Irregular marks are seen.

The blood is also concentrated on the irregular edges, and it can be seen that it should not be caused by cropping, it is more like being bitten by a wild animal.

"I dyed the cloth of this color, and weaved the cloth myself. So I recognized it at a glance, it was my brother's clothes." Big tears fell on the table, and Mana sighed. Hold her chin to make her look up.

"You just want to take this evidence to the police station to call the police. You want to use the power of the police to find your brother, right? Then what if your brother has been killed?"

"I will make the murderer pay the price." The little girl choked up, and cried even harder after hearing what Mana said.

"Aristocrats like Sakuragawa are powerful and powerful. Even if you find solid evidence, the law will not let them go to jail, and the police will not let them pay the price. You should know." Mana patted her head affectionately .

In the next second, her arm was tightly grasped: "Please find my brother, please punish those who hurt my brother. I am willing to pay any price, please help me."

"Don't cry anymore, otherwise people will be suspicious if your eyes are swollen tomorrow." Mana took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away her tears: "Your brother still needs you now, calm down, I have something to ask you. "

Mana has tried many professions, but it is the first time to be a thief.

Her head was firmly pressed against the cold metal cabinet door, and she kept trying to twist it with her good hearing. After a subtle and crisp click sound appeared, Mana opened the door of the safe.

Yen, gold nuggets, land deeds, house deeds, jewelry, everything. Mana continued to search and found a pill wrapped in moisture-proof paper and packed in a glass container.

The glass containers that held the medicines looked ancient, like something you'd see in a brochure at an antiques auction.

And it has lettering on it.

Mana wasn't sure if this was what Onimai Tsuji wanted, and when he was still hesitating, an excited male voice sounded in his head: "Mana, bring this thing back."

"This bottle, this bottle is indeed the doctor's thing. I have seen this thing, and it is his name engraved on it. Totsuji Sakuragawa, I said that the doctor Totsuji Sakuragawa has not prepared all the prescriptions. Yes!" Gui Wu Tsuji was so excited that he was a little crazy, clutching the bottle and shouting up to the sky.

Mana knelt at his feet, her eyes glazed over.

At this time, she realized that she seemed to have found something extraordinary, but due to the distance that could completely expose all her thoughts, Mana forced herself to empty her mind and think about other divergent thoughts.

So after Guiwu Tsuji fell straight to the ground, she began to look shocked.

Mana quickly stepped forward to help Oni Wu Tsuji Mumi, she knew that Oni King's body decomposes toxins very quickly.

After waiting for 5 minutes, Onimai Tsuji, who had gradually recovered from his body stiffness, murmured in disbelief, "Why, why did Sakuragawa Touji's medicine not work!"

The sharp knife-like gaze fell on her, and in order not to splatter the blood on the spot, Mana knelt down on the ground again, with her forehead tightly pressed against the tatami mat, and said hesitantly: "Master Wu Mi, you know that there is something in this world Is it called the shelf life?"
