After expressing their apologies, the two parties also exchanged names.
The man's name is Ryuubi Kei, and the woman is his wife, Ryuubi Ayaka.
Long Weijing said that he has been coming here every day to practice archery in the past half month.
Because of some minor friction with people from the next village, I just mistakenly thought that the three new faces, Ye Genichi, Hattori Heiji, Toyama and Ye, were here to provoke me, and I accidentally acted rudely.
However, Long Wei Jing did not elaborate on what the 'little friction' meant.
Dragon tail? What a coincidence?
Hearing this last name, Hattori Heiji was startled.
Before coming, he specifically asked Officer Otaki if this village was the kind of clan village where half the surname was 'Ryuubi' and the other half was 'Torada'.
After getting a negative answer, he breathed a small sigh of relief. After all, it was really difficult for him, an outsider, to find out anything about the symbiotic family relationship.
As a result...unexpectedly, while wandering around, I met someone from the Tatsumi family.
And why does the other party seem to have never heard of my name...
Well, Officer Otaki’s senior is at least 50 years old. What is the relationship between the man in front of me and the client?
Hattori Heiji was a little confused. He didn't know for a moment whether he should say goodbye to the two of them first and go somewhere else for a while, or directly explain his intention.
At this time, I heard Ye Gengyi continue the previous topic by asking: "From what you say, it seems that the people in the next village are a bit difficult to get along with. If we meet... will we be embarrassed by them? "
Eh? yes!
You can ask him about the situation in the village next door first. It really makes me stupid... Hattori Heiji got the best of him.
He had just been thinking about how to get some clues from people outside the 'Longwei' or 'Torada' families, but he actually ignored that even if it was the same thing, he could ask the other way around.
"Well... they are really not easy to contact."
Ryuubi Jing hesitated slightly and explained: "Actually, our village and the village next door hold a festival every year to select the most powerful Yabusuri horse shooters. Because I have always been in good condition, among them Some people are not very popular, so they occasionally come to the shooting range to do some tricks, but in short, you still have to be careful when encountering them."
Yabusame originated from equestrian skills on the battlefield and later developed into a competitive sport. In Yabusame, contestants need to ride a specially trained horse, use a specified number of bows and arrows, and compete at equal distances. Shoot at the target, and the final hit rate will determine the outcome.
As for time, since there is no way to accurately control the running speed of the horse, as long as it is not as extreme as riding a horse for a walk, the contestants and the organizer will not care too much about the difference of more than ten seconds.
"King has been the Yabusame archer at the festival for six consecutive years, and he should be elected this year as well."
Tatsuo Ayaka whispered in a low voice: "If you ask me, just don't have any campaign at all, just ask Akei to be Yabusuri's shooter every year."
"Linghua..."
Long Wei Jing looked at his wife and said with helplessness: "Don't say such things. If I become slack and don't practice more frequently, my riding and shooting will definitely deteriorate... After all, whether it's my perseverance or my strength, I They are much better than their predecessors."
senior? Still a lot worse?
Strange, didn't this person say that he had been elected as the 'Raybussa Archer' for 6 consecutive years...
Hattori Heiji asked in confusion: "Excuse me, who is the senior you just mentioned?"
"Um...this."
Dragon Tail Scene was about to speak but stopped.
Just now, just to strengthen his belief, he blurted out the person he admired most in his riding and archery skills to spur himself on.
But this does not mean that he is willing to follow the topic and satisfy the curiosity of three passers-by who have only known each other for less than a few minutes.
"The criminal police officer of Nagano Prefecture, Kai Renjin." Ye Gengyi said the name in his heart without hesitation.
"How...how do you know?" Long Weijing's expression changed slightly.
It would be fine if they were villagers from a nearby village, but... weren't these three people tourists from Osaka?
Um? This reaction... It seems that they really don't know Hattori Heiji...
After a little testing.
Ye Gengyi said in a way that seemed to answer the question, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed like he didn't say anything:
"Officer Kai is such an easy-going person, so it's not surprising that I would know him."
"Yes, that person is Kai-senpai."
Ryūbi Kage took a breath and said sincerely: "My practice is not enough. If the senior is still alive, he should always be the shooter of the Ryusei Horse."
The atmosphere was somewhat silent for a while.
Hattori Heiji took the opportunity to pull Ye Sarai a few steps aside, lowered his voice and asked several questions, saying: "Brother Sarada, how do you know that police officer Kai? According to Ryūbi Kage's rhetorical analysis, that The person should have died six years ago, right?"
"I don't know him." Ye Gengyi also lowered his voice.
"Ah? Then you just..."
Hattori Heiji was startled, as if he remembered something, and asked, "Is it possible that he has something to do with the case we are here to investigate this time?"
"maybe."
Ye Gengyi had no intention of explaining, so he took out Matsumoto Kiyonaga's notepad and waved it in front of Hattori Heiji's eyes.
Hattori Heiji:"……"
How could I forget this...
It's not really his fault for being careless. He was just driving on the road.
In addition, he has seen a lot of notepads used by criminal police. It can be said that in addition to the names and locations, it has certain reference value, such as those records including but not limited to time. In addition to being readable by the recorder, To others, it looks like an encrypted codebook.
If there weren't any clues at all, this thing could only play a supporting role at best.
Hattori Heiji originally planned to wait for some clues to be collected and then borrow it from Ye Gengyi to take a look.
This does not conflict with the plan they made at the beginning. It is just a pretense of finding a way, but in fact, they first walk around to observe the atmosphere and environment of the village.
】
result……
The relationship between the two villages seemed to be somewhat incompatible because of the festival, and they happened to meet the son and daughter-in-law of the suspected Tatsuo family.
Ye Gengyi's side will not be affected at all.
But Hattori Heiji is different. He just revealed his identity now, and he can also explain it by explaining that the other party did not recognize him after informing each other's names at the beginning. If he delays it any longer, unless he does not plan to see the client, he will only leave a name for the other party. The impression of mutual distrust is really not worth the gain.
"Brother Geng Yi, just tell them that I was entrusted by Mr. Ryuubi Shi to investigate Ryuubi Koji Yuko."
Not only did this kid not have the effect of a 'Strange Events Electronic Card', he even met the family members of the person involved in the secret investigation. It was really a shame...
Ye Gengyi shook his head and reminded:
"Remember, I'm just a friend who came here with you, don't let it slip."
Hearing this, Hattori Heiji said, "Don't worry." He couldn't wait to run to Tatsuo Kage and Tatsuo Ayaka and introduced his identity in detail.
