"Okay, now move it out of the way!"
Mochizuki stood up from the ground. Her clothes were completely ruined, but the two people standing opposite were not much better. All the clean clothes on their bodies had been forced to contribute.
"Is this okay?"
Morofuku Gaoming put on his navy blue suit jacket and looked at the Kai patrolman who was tied up like a mummy.
"Well, I have already taken care of the fracture, and the body temperature is gradually recovering. The rest of the minor wounds can be treated in the clinic. However, he has lost a lot of blood, so it is better to send him to a big hospital."
Mochizuki flicked his wrist, and the three of them each stood in a position, and at the same time, they used force to gently move the dead horse down.
"So, if Kai-senpai's wounds are not treated for the time being, his life will not be in danger?"
"It should be fine until the ambulance comes."
Mochizuki looked at the two silent people and immediately understood their plan.
Kai Gento can only make the murderer nervous by staying in the village openly.
A few of them came here to look for someone in a big way. There is no reason that the murderer wouldn't know.
Maybe he is hiding in some corner and peeping.
All four people who were watched by Uehara detectives have been called in, and they all said they heard gunshots. Now Nagano Prefecture detectives are searching for murder weapons in the village.
The murderer may have begun to become unable to sit still.
"If there is blood transfusion equipment in the ambulance, it doesn't matter if he doesn't go to the hospital for the time being. However, he has not had any water for three days, so it is best to prepare some nutritional supplies."
"He can't eat anything like this now, so he can only drink water to survive."
"learn!"
Zhufu Gaoming responded softly, turned around and started to contact his colleagues at the police station. Patrolman Kai's condition could only be carried out on a stretcher.
At the Torada family and the village's suspects, the police have called them here, and Uehara Yui is questioning them one by one.
Mochizuki stretched and followed the team at the end, carefully observing the expressions of the group of people when they saw Kai Gento was still alive.
"Uehara, what did you find?"
Yamato Kansuke and Morofuku Gaoming carefully moved Kai Gento to the bed, and sent two police officers to guard it.
"Only the Torada family in the whole village has a shotgun, but almost all the elderly people in the village have used it, so there is no way to check it out."
Yui Uehara looked at the dark figures in the yard with a headache. During the riding and shooting competition two days ago, these people all played with this shotgun.
"Humph, I had expected this to happen."
"After the investigation, let these people go back. When Kai-senpai wakes up, we will know who the murderer is."
Yamato Gansuke deliberately shouted loudly and drove out the irrelevant people watching outside.
Tomorrow is the time for sacrifice. There will be a celebration dinner in the village tonight. Everyone will attend the event, and that time is also the only chance for the murderer to take action.
"The trap is so obviously laid out, what if the murderer doesn't come?"
Mochizuki sat on the chair a little bored. Yamato sent all the criminal police from Nagano Prefecture back for various reasons. If she were the one, she would never be fooled.
"Traps are called traps because there is a reason why the prey has to come."
Zhu Fu Gaoming replied calmly that the murderer was at the end of his rope.
After Patrolman Kai fell off the cliff, if he had not appeared again or killed someone directly, he would not be in this deadlock now.
Late at night, everyone at the celebration had left, and the whole village fell into silence.
Mochizuki lay on the edge of the bed and dozed off. Yamato Kansuke and Morofuku Gaoming had left long ago. The reason was that the car escorting the prisoners in the police station broke down on the road and they needed to go to support.
As for Yui Uehara, she had just been sent to a small clinic to pick up detoxification drugs.
"Who is it, come out?"
Mochizuki touched her sore neck and sat up directly from the bed. She lay at the door and stared for a long time but refused to come in. Is it so difficult to decide?
"You are indeed prepared."
The wooden sliding door was slowly opened, and a middle-aged woman with a sinister smile on her face walked in.
"I know you're still here, wouldn't you be stupid?"
Mochizuki laughed disdainfully. Who doesn't know how to talk?
"Humph, you are dead today!"
Tarei waved his hand, and a group of men holding torches suddenly appeared at the door. They all looked at Mochizuki and Yamato Gansuke who were lying on the bed pretending to be sick with cold eyes.
"Is the title of Glazed Horse Archer worth so many of you grabbing for?"
Mochizuki picked up the fan placed next to the bed and fanned it casually. The room was already very hot on a hot day, and with such a group of savages coming in with torches, it became even more uncomfortable.
"Of course it's for money. Who made him shoot for six consecutive years? Shouldn't he die if he blocks other people's way of making money?"
Torada Darei was arrogant and looked confident.
"The money you make is too unskilled. It's not like Mr. Gento Kai is the only one in the village who can hit the target with perfect accuracy. If one dies, the next will naturally appear. Can you kill them all?"
Mochizuki sneered. This group of people were confused at first glance and couldn't even understand such a simple truth.
"You don't have to worry about this. I specially prepared this house for you. The outside is already filled with gasoline."
"Even if there are people guarding you outside, by the time they find out, you will have been burned to charcoal."
"It's up to you!"
Mochizuki rolled her eyes and pushed open the window of the room. She wanted to see how the fire would start with her here.
Zhufu Gaoming and Uehara Yui came out from behind the screen and looked at Mochizuki helplessly.
I have long heard that Officer Mochizuki handles cases in an eclectic way, but I didn't expect him to be so sharp when it comes to attacking criminals.
They had secretly replaced the gasoline outside, but the group of big men holding torches in the house still had some deterrent effect, so there was no need to anger them so much.
"Kill them."
Torada Darei was so angry that he almost lost his temper. He didn't care about being discovered by people outside, and directly asked those people to come forward and prepare to kill Mochizuki, the culprit.
Yamato Gansuke and Zhufu Gaoming took the lead and rushed forward, while Uehara Yui took the enshrined long knife from the desk and stood vigilantly in front of Mochizuki.
The people who gambled with Tatsurō were all nearby villagers. Although they held murder weapons in their hands, they were no match for professionally trained criminal police officers.
After a while, all these people were lying down together, and the few remaining people were locked in the back and did not dare to come forward.
"I'm going to shoot."
Torada was so angry that he pointed the shotgun directly at Mochizuki, but before she could shoot, he was hit in the head by a fan thrown from the air, and he fell to the ground uncontrollably.
"Done!"
Mochizuki walked to the door, picked up the whistle he had prepared in advance and blew a whistle. The police officers who were lying in ambush in the distance immediately rushed forward and surrounded the entire yard.
They had not expected the large number of prisoners this time. Now they had to guard the entrances and exits and must not let anyone go.
