Ke Xue: I picked up a bottle of sherry at the beginning

Chapter 95 The murder happened.

Machida locked the door, and everyone boarded the car and drove along the road at the edge of the swamp,

At the foot of the mountain, there is a small courtyard, nestled by mountains and waters, hidden in the shade of trees, quiet and peaceful like a landscape painting. Machida finger courtyard said, “That’s my home, and now it’s just me, and I live there.” ”

The car stopped at the gate of the courtyard. Machida ushered everyone into the living room, which was spacious, bright and quaint, and all the furnishings had a strong rural rural flavor. Machida asked Maori to sit down, poured tea again, pointed to a photo of a woman on the offering platform, and said, “That’s the portrait of my wife, who tragically passed away five years ago, and I’ve been living alone in this house ever since.” ”

Bai Quanyi drank a few sips of tea, attracted by the white crane specimen in the house, he stood up and walked over to watch it for a while, and couldn’t help but praise: “It’s really well done, what is the difference between it and living!” ”

“It was a specimen I made from an injured and sick red-crowned crane, and I plan to donate it to a school or museum.”

“Mr. Machida, you are such a warm-hearted person for protecting the environment.”

As he was talking, the door was pushed open with a “creak”, and a tall, rough-eyed, middle-aged man with long hair walked in, and when he saw that there were guests in the house, he hurriedly smiled and greeted: “Hello, welcome!” ”

Machida introduces you to the visitors,

“This is my brother Abao, a nameless painter who came here 10 days ago.”

“The unknown painter…”

Machida Ho was not satisfied with the introduction of his eldest brother,

“How can you say that? Eldest brother! ”

“I’m talking about the truth, the lack of observation that a painter should have is the Achilles heel of not being famous.”

Machida saw that his brother was silent and introduced him to the guests again

“Guys.”

Conan was very energetic when he was still Shinichi, especially as a child, no matter where he went, and his previous curiosity did not diminish at all. He saw a piece of tempered glass standing against the wall of the window, felt very strange, and couldn’t help but ask the reason again.

“Grandpa, what is this tempered glass for?”

“Look.”

Machida pointed to the window and said,

“I want to remove the glass and put the tempered glass on, and then even if you sit in the hall, you can see the red-crowned crane in the swamp, how beautiful it would be!”

“Dad!”

“Dad!”

With two shouts, two young men, a man and a woman, hurriedly broke down the door, and before they could stand, the young man shouted at Machida without anger.

“Dad, I heard that you are going to donate all your property to the village, are you kidding? Father! ”

“No, it’s true.”

Machida replied with some displeasure,

“I will use this money to take care of the red-crowned crane and all the migratory birds that live here forever.”

“What?”

The young man’s eyes were about to burst,

“Are your sons and daughters inferior to those birds in your eyes?” Dad, you’re so underconsiderate! ”

“Daddy!”

The young woman helped to coax,

“You have to help me, my boutique is short of funds, and it is about to be transferred to someone else, you can’t watch me go bankrupt!”

“Hey, are you finished?”

Machida got up from the sofa in annoyance and yelled at his children,

“You know what? It’s rude to have guests here now! ”

After roaring, he hugged his hands to his chest and sighed,

“It’s so annoying, how can everyone only know money money! Isn’t there no other topic besides money? ”

“This is also normal, who calls us father and son? Hey, Dad, how can you not make a fire in the stove on such a cold day? I kind of can’t stand it. ”

The young man pulled out his lighter and went to the stove to make a fire.

“Stop, don’t make a fire, Ah Hao!”

Machida Ho shouted, rushed forward, and reached out to “snap” the lighter in Ahao’s hand.

“What are you doing? Uncle! ”

“Hun boy!”

Mr. Machida rushed up,

“There are migratory birds that nest on this chimney and lay eggs. Although there are no birds now, spring will come! How many times have I told you that whether it is the stove or anything else in this room, you are not allowed to touch it more! ”

“Hmph! Regard those birds as more important than their own children, and I am afraid that such a good father will not be able to find a second one in the world! ”

“Presumptuous!”

Machida shouted, and turned to Machida Ho,

“Abao, did you old boy call them to make trouble?”

“This… I called them on my own…”

Abao paused, nodded and acknowledged,

“Maybe it’s me wrong, but in order to have no disputes in the future, it’s better to come to you to discuss this matter and say it clearly, and I’m also for your good!”

“Dog scratches rats, nosy!”

Machida gave Machida a blank look, and then taught Aholai a lesson,

“I think you have already heard Uncle Abao say, at five o’clock this afternoon, the lawyer will bring the relevant donation documents, as long as I sign and seal the documents, then, after I return to heaven for a hundred years, the property of 300 million yen will belong to the village.”

“Dad, I absolutely disagree with you doing this!”

Machida’s daughter screamed,

“I’ll go to that lawyer right away, it’s ridiculous to spend 300 million yuan for these beasts and red-crowned cranes!”

“What is a beast!”

Mr. Machida blew his beard and glared angrily,

“Zezi, I tell you, it’s useless to go to see a lawyer, he is just my agent, and he can’t influence my will!”

At this point, he changed to a tone of lessons,

“I have already given you the legal inheritance part of the two of you, only blame you for not cherishing it, not using this money well to develop yourself, even if all my property is distributed to you, how long can you squander it, spend it, I am also dead, who do you go to inherit the property?” A bunch of useless stupid stuff! Zezi, Ah Hao, listen to me, you haven’t been here for so long, you should go to your mother’s grave, otherwise you will be punished. ”

After Mr. Machida had finished teaching his children, he went out the door with a grunt and waited for the wounded red-crowned crane he had locked up in the pen. Zezi and Ah Hao, who remained in the house, looked very embarrassed, especially Ah Hao, after arguing with his father and being taught such a lesson by him, he had lost confidence. He wavered and looked at his sister: “Sister, let’s go back, there will be no results here, this old man is too stubborn!” ”

“I must go to the lawyer and tell him to stop this no matter what!”

Noriko shouted angrily,

“That’s so unfair!”

It is difficult for Qing officials to break off family affairs, and Bai Quanyi is embarrassed to say more about other people’s family affairs.

Bai Quanyi signaled Belmode to go out to find, Belmode agreed, so he walked out one after the other, the two walked around casually, enjoying the scenery of the lower northern country, such a quiet trip, in fact, is quite good, there is no need to go to any tourist attractions.

In a room outside the door, there is a large wooden railing, inside which is closed a large red-crowned crane, the crane’s leg is injured, Mr. Machida is carefully dressing and bandaging it, wrapped it, and said like a child: “It doesn’t matter, your injury will be fine in a few days, you have to endure, when you are injured, you can fly into the blue sky again and sing freely…”

Machida Ho came over and said to Shiraizumi, “My brother’s car company in Tokyo is booming.” But eight years ago, my sister-in-law had a terminal illness, and my eldest brother took care of his company and brought his sister-in-law to this place to retreat, and he loved his sister-in-law more than his own life! ”

“What about his two children?”

“Both Ahao and Noriko found life in the countryside boring and refused to leave Tokyo, so my brother gave them the property they should legally inherit at that time, hoping that they would develop well. But these two children are indisputable guys, and they quickly squandered that money, so they came to fight for property again! ”

At this time, a sudden episode interrupted their conversation and also set off a storm. Ah Hao flashed out of nowhere, holding a crossbow in his hand, he walked to the door of the side room, saw his father facing away from him, carefully cooking red-crowned cranes, couldn’t help but be angry, aimed at his father and pulled the transmitter.

With a “click”, the string played out, but Mr. Machida did not fall. It turned out that there was no arrow on his string, and his behavior frightened the people next to the house. The children rushed over. Ahao pulled in again and aimed at his father.

“Hey, what are you doing?”

Bai Quanyi stepped forward to organize,

“It’s too dangerous, it will kill people.”

“What are you nosy about? Fuck off! ”

Ah Hao pushed Bai Quanyi away with his hand,

“I didn’t get an arrow, can’t you see it?”

“You can’t do it without an arrow, my profession is a criminal policeman, you do such a dangerous thing, of course I have to stop you!”

Bai Quan Yiyi said solemnly.

“Nasty! Get out of the way! ”

Ah Hao glared at Bai Quanyi angrily, threw away the crossbow, pushed Bai Quanyi away, and left angrily.

Belmod said leisurely: “Bai Quanyi, you really love to be nosy!” ”

……

Bai Quanyi said: “Can’t you watch him kill people?” I’m a police officer. ”

At this time, Machida Ho opened the sketchbook and showed it to the children one by one, Abao drew a variety of forms of red-crowned crane activities, some spreading its wings and flying, some playing, some perched, and the form was also realistic, and the children couldn’t help but marvel.

“Wow, it’s really worthy of being a painter, what you painted is no different from the real white crane!”

Conan found that there were several mistakes in the painting, but he was embarrassed to point it out, but he just thought secretly in his heart: It seems that Grandpa Machida is right, as a painter, his observation is indeed a little worse, no wonder he can’t become famous at such an age.

“Oh, the lawyer may be almost there, I’ll go first.”

Abao said hello and left first.

As soon as Abao arrived at the house, he saw a jeep driving up behind, the car stopped at the door, a tall thin man with a bald head, and a little old man wearing myopic glasses opened the door and shouted.

“Mr. Abao, good night! Am I late? ”

When Abao looked back, he recognized that the person who came was Mr. Ryu Yamagami, a lawyer invited by his eldest brother, and greeted him very warmly.

“Mr. Yamagami, please, my eldest brother is waiting for you at home, follow me, please here.”

Abao led Mr. Yamagami to the gate of Machida through the snow, and they shouted a few times without anyone agreeing. Almost at the same time, Po and Yamagami discovered how the glass in the window had broken a big hole. When they got closer to see the scene in the house, they were almost out of their minds. It turned out that the old man Machida was sitting on the sofa facing the window, hanging his head, his eyes closed, and a sharp arrow was shot deep into his chest, and blood stained his entire chest. Judging from that demeanor, he must have died.

“Big brother!”

“Mr. Shuzo!”

Abao and the mountain lawyer shouted and ran to the door, wanting to open the door and enter. But the door was locked from the inside, and it couldn’t be twisted open. At this moment, Zezi, who was sulking in the room, ran out of his room when he heard the sound.

“Uncle, what happened?”

Noriko asked anxiously.

“Zezi, it’s not good!”

Abao said,

“Your dad, he was shot with an arrow!”

“Wouldn’t you? How is that possible? ”

Noriko’s eyes widened in fright.

Panicked, Po didn’t have time to pay attention to Noriko, took a few steps back, and slammed the door hard, and with one “bang”, two times, and three times, the door was knocked open. ”

When Abao entered, Zezi and Shangshang also wanted to enter, but Abao stopped them from the door: “Don’t rush in, I’ll take care of the affairs here.” ”

“Dad…”

“Zezi, where is Ah Hao? Where did Ah Hao go? ”

“I don’t know… Dad….”

“Zezi, calm down, you go to Ah Hao right now. I’ll go to the bath to find Officer Bai, Mr. Yamagami, you hurry to the door and call the police with that phone! ”

“Yes!”

Zezi and the mountain obeyed, and Abao hurried over…

After Bai Quanyi learned the situation, he immediately came to the scene. He found that the windows and doors were closed, the door was locked from the inside, and the murderer shot an arrow from the window to break the glass and then shoot Mr. Machida Shuzo into the chest.

Bai Quanyi asked Abao: “Mr. Abao, how can this door be locked?” ”

“Yes, every afternoon at one o’clock, the eldest brother locked the door and watched the life video recorded by his sister-in-law here until four o’clock, not allowing anyone to disturb his meeting with his sister-in-law, I think he didn’t want others to see him sad. This is almost the homework that the eldest brother must do every day. ”

Bai Quan Yi turned on the video player on the low cabinet, and the picture of Mrs. Shi Yi feeding and feeding the crane appeared on the TV screen. Bai Quanyi suddenly realized, turned off the TV, he looked at the grounded glass with a hole,

“No wonder he wants to put wool in the window…”

But now he finally came out of his grief, determined to buy tempered glass, planning to replace the previous frosted glass, and enjoy the red-crowned crane from the living room… I didn’t expect that…”

“Uncle Abao…”

Noriko “Dadada” barged in as he walked.

“What about Ah Hao?”

Abao asked seriously.

“I… He couldn’t be found anywhere. ”

Noriko said breathlessly,

“Moreover, the car we drove is gone…”

“Miss Noriko.”

Belmode walked over and said,

“I just saw that at almost five o’clock, Ah Hao drove down the mountain to Zero.”
