Rebirth of Conan as a Detective
Chapter 1108: Winemaker
Chimi Village.
Gao Cheng stopped in front of the village chief's mansion.
He has already run around, no matter whether it is the village chief or ordinary villagers, everyone has denied the existence of the person in charge of the department store, and they have not even admitted to seeing the female tenant of the Crane Room in the hotel.
The hotel owner has always insisted that the female tenant checked out the room early, but the identity is unknown.
However, after various exchanges and contact, it seems that because of the short time, not all the villagers have unified the caliber, and only the village cadres and the group promoting the special wine project have the same rhetoric.
Obviously those who were in charge of the reception yesterday.
Last night, the village chief's house definitely held a banquet for the "person in charge".
The basis is the smell of alcohol on the woman's body when she returned to the hotel from outside at around 8 o'clock in the evening, and the lights of the village chief's house late at night. Last night, after returning to the room from the bar, he watched TV for a while, until the alcohol was strong before going to bed. Around 10 o'clock, the village chief's house was lit.
It stands to reason that the banquet would not last that long, after all the protagonists of the banquet had already left.
If you think about it this way, it might be the second meeting later, and the woman went to the village chief's house again for some reason.
Gao Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and returned to the hotel under the vague attention of the villagers.
If he was right, the woman was not simply missing, she might have been killed.
As for the motive, it might be something caused by a woman posing as the person in charge of a department store...
The village is not too big, but it is not easy to find the whereabouts of women, especially when the whole village is full of prisoners.
Gao Cheng stood by the balcony to check.
Ordinary villagers' homes should not be able to hide corpses, but the village head's home is more suspicious, but these people will definitely not let the corpses stay there.
The best place to dispose of dead bodies...
The pond in front of the village came into Gao Cheng's eyes.
After all, it was just a rural village, and the easiest way to dispose of the corpse was of course to sink it into a pond.
If he wasn't here, there wouldn't be any problems at all, and even if the police came to track him down, he wouldn't think too much about it.
After all, all traces of the murdered woman's existence have been erased.
...
"What? Nagano prefectural police?"
"Yeah, salvage over the pond now!"
In the village office, several cadres ran out of the village in a panic. When they saw several police cars by the pond, their minds went blank.
The police have already discovered the abnormality, and the body wrapped in black plastic bags was quickly salvaged ashore.
"Come up!"
"It's a woman!"
The hands and feet of the veteran cadres watching from the shore trembled, as if their strength had been taken away from them, and their faces turned pale.
I don't know what's going on. I heard from the hotel owner that the famous detective is going back to Tokyo. At this time, the police came to salvage the body.
Why?
Why would the police come?
How do you know the body is in the pond?
No... who the hell called the police? !
At the village head's house, Gao Cheng found the old man again.
The old man who is respected by the villagers does have a unique charisma of a leader, but at this moment his face still can't see much change, but his eyes are closed, and his brows look very tired.
"When I heard about a famous detective, I felt like I couldn't hide it," the old man said flatly, "I know you, the ghost detective who solved the case 100%, but I didn't expect it to end so soon... What went wrong? ?”
"All the villagers, including the village cadres, are very nervous and want to protect something from the bottom of their hearts," Gao Cheng and the old man sat under the eaves together, "the only one in this village who deserves to be treated like this by the villagers is you, old man." right?"
"That's right."
The old man sighed, took the wine bottle and two wine glasses and poured wine.
"In the end, I still caused trouble for everyone. I killed someone, and I planned to use a rope to tie it myself... Have a drink, the wine brewed in the village, it is ten years old."
"I don't drink." Gao Cheng didn't take the glass.
"Oh, I almost forgot your age."
The old man was stunned, and he didn't force it anymore. He drank alone and looked at the familiar village in front of him.
"It was my idea to cooperate with a department store in Tokyo. Everyone pooled their money and invested 15 million... It's fine if you don't get the money back, but the village cannot be charged with bribery, so I drew my sword and killed people."
Gao Cheng glanced at the old man who confessed to the crime: "Tokyo's giving money to a private company is not considered bribery. There is no such thing as a crime of bribery. You can sue the other party, and the chances of getting the money back are very high."
The old man was stunned, and after a while he shook his head as if he was a few years older.
"Forget it, this is fate, right? That woman is right, 15 million is useless, there is no way to sign a contract, and it is impossible for a department store to cooperate with us..."
"It's too early to say these things. I'm afraid there won't be a market for such a good wine?"
Gao Cheng knew it was good wine just by smelling the aroma, and he also tasted the sweet wine in the village yesterday, so he had no problem signing a contract with the department store.
"There is a saying that the fragrance of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley."
"I wish I had met you sooner."
The old man felt lost.
"If the people in the village...will they also be guilty?"
"There should be some," Gao Cheng met the old man's concerned gaze, "There are still concealments in handling the corpse..."
"No, they want to help me too much... Can you save them? The villagers can't do anything. In exchange, I will surrender and plead guilty, please!" the old man asked anxiously.
"I just informed the police to go to the pond to salvage the corpses." Gao Cheng saw the Nagano police officers coming, got up and said goodbye, "If the people in the village can use the solidarity you have helped you in the right place, the village will be able to recover sooner or later." Revitalization."
Under the blood sucking of Tokyo, it is not surprising that this kind of small mountain village will decline. There are almost no young people, but it does not mean that the village has no hope.
"yes?"
The old man breathed a sigh of relief, a smile finally appeared on his old face, and he watched Gao Cheng go to meet the police.
"I hope there will be such a day. I really want to see the day when the village gets better again."
"Mr. Guan!" The old brewer hurried over, choking with excitement, "News from Tokyo, the contract has been established!"
"what?"
"It is said that a big shot asked our Hina Hitomi in particular, and we succeeded!"
The old man was not too excited, and nodded to the winemaker while thinking silently: "Thank you for your hard work, go and tell everyone."
It's ironic. If I knew it, I should have believed in the wine I brewed.
At noon, the Chumei Village incident came to an end as the village head left the village in a police car, and Gao Cheng also started his return journey, driving back to Tokyo.
According to the police investigation, the scene of the crime was indeed the village chief's house, and the murder weapon was an enshrined Japanese sword.
It was almost the time when he returned to the room from the bar. Kaorko Kusakabe, who was found to have a fake identity, received a call and went to the village chief's house for the second time. The light he saw was also the light of the last moment of Kusakabe's life.
Open the system light curtain, and a new card has been drawn after the settlement is successful.
It's the "Brewing" card.
