   On Wednesday, August 11, at around four in the afternoon, the old house in the house of Dr. Aka’s uncle.

  In a forest, after getting off the car, looking at the big villa covered with vines, Lan asked, "Doctor, is this villa yours?"

   "This is not true, I am just a witness." Dr. Aka said.

   "This seems to be not far from the golf course in front of the good mood." Mei Daizi looked around.

   "It's really not far away," Dr. Aka said with a smile, "I really want to say, there is a part of the land that used to belong to my uncle."

   "I turned out to be a rich man, this should be a good visit." Yuanzi laughed.

   "This may disappoint you." Dr. Aka smiled, "Please come in, I will show you around."

living room.

   There is an oil painting on the wall with a man and a woman. The background is the living room. The man in the painting is about fifty years old. The eyebrows and the eyes are similar to Dr. Ari, especially the big nose.

   Yuanzi said, "At that time, I could invite an artist home to paint oil paintings. It seems that your uncle is indeed a rich man."

   Dr. Ari smiled and said, "Of course, this house and a large area of ​​land around it belonged to my uncle."

   Lan asked, "Doctor, is this your uncle's family?"

   Dr. Ari said, "This is my uncle, followed by my aunt. At that time, my uncle was in poor health and my aunt came to take care of him."

   Mei Daizi smiled and said, "Fortunately, your aunt is not like you."

   "That's true, otherwise it would be difficult to get married." Yuanzi laughed.

   Lan changed the subject, "Doctor, where is your uncle's family?"

   Dr. Ari said: "My uncle is not married and has no children. After his death, the inheritance was given to my aunt who was also single."

   "Ah, sorry." Mei Daizi and Yuanzi said embarrassedly.

"It's okay." Dr. A Li said, "After my aunt has paid the inheritance tax, this house and a small amount of land are left. My aunt is an elementary school teacher. She didn't live here because of work, but came here occasionally for vacation. , By the way, clean up. After more than ten years, my aunt passed away due to illness. Before she died, she made a will and gave the house and the surrounding area to the town. The condition is that it will be kept until the house is aging and demolished. As it is." Then he said with emotion, "I was already an adult at the time, so I was allowed to be a witness, and after this, it has been more than 30 years, and this house will reach its end of life."

   "Always remain the same, as if your uncle is still living in it." Mei Daizi said, "Let your uncle live another fifty years."

   "Unfortunately, it will be demolished." Lan said sadly.

   "Then put up a sign." Yuanzi said.

   "Machigami is going to do this." Dr. Aka smiled.

   "Okay, let's hurry up and bury things." Mei Daizi said.

   "Wait," Yamazaki asked while looking at the oil painting, "Doctor, I have a question, how often do you clean the room?"

   "Clean the room?" Dr. Aka said, "I have never come to clean, but after I answered the notification call from Machi, I came to remove the spider web."

   "Oh?" Yamazaki smiled, "That's interesting."

   "Brother, what's the problem?" Mei Daizi asked.

   wiped the table with his finger, Yamazaki smiled and said, "The dust collection here is obviously not more than thirty years old."

   Dr. Aka said, "The town should have sent someone to clean it."

   "Then why didn't you send someone here?" Yamazaki said, "Cleaning this place is not a burden for Machigami."

   "This," Dr. Aka thought for a while and said, "This is indeed a problem."

   "Then someone came to clean it," Lan asked, "Who would it be?"

   "Are there any valuable things missing here?" Yuanzi asked, "For example, candlesticks, tableware, wooden tables and chairs?"

   Dr. Ari said, "No, in order to avoid thieves, the property appraisal was done back then, and the valuables were taken away."

   "Will it be a safe house?" Mei Daizi asked.

   "Safe house?" Dr. Aka asked.

   "It's a Tibetan place, like a fugitive or something." Mei Daizi said.

   "No way?" Lan was taken aback.

   "I think it's possible," Sonoko said, "Maybe there was a murderer in hiding, and he left after the prosecution period expired."

   "Also," said Yamazaki, "oil painting can be said to be a delicate thing. Even if it has been mounted and left unattended for more than 30 years, it has long been broken, not to mention that it is still in the woods and it is very humid."

   "So, he is someone who can maintain oil paintings," Lan said.

   "This is regarded as paying the rent." Yuanzi laughed.

   "By the way, Doctor, how about water and electricity? Is there any here?" Mei Daizi asked.

   "That's not true," Dr. Aka said.

   "Want to check, Doctor?" Yamazaki asked.

   Dr. Aka asked: "Can you find out?"

   "Of course." Yamazaki said, "Call the water and electricity company first and ask when the water and electricity were cut off here."

   "I'll call." Yuanzi called and asked on his mobile phone, only to find out that he was disconnected about five years ago because he did not pay.

   "Someone has lived here for about thirty years." Lan said in surprise.

   "Maybe not a group of people." Mei Daizi said.

"Whether you live here alone, or have some people here one after another, go to a nearby convenience store and so on to find out." Yamazaki said, "The 30-year old customer is not so easy to forget. , And if it’s not, it’s the latter. Then, in this place, it’s best to let the police deal with it to see if there is any fingerprints of the wanted criminal. Of course, you can also ignore him, after all, it has passed. "

   "Well," Dr. Aka thought for a while and said, "Then go and ask, I'm so relieved."

After that, everyone went to a nearby family-style convenience store to inquire, and the result was that a man lived there before and lived for a long time. He seemed to be a painter who made a living by painting, or the children nearby. Painting teacher.

   "So, boss, do you know where he went?" Dr. Aka asked.

   "I don't know." The convenience store owner said, "A few years ago one of his brothers came to him, and then he didn't show up. Maybe he went home for retirement."

   "Thank you, boss," Dr. Aka said.

   "You're welcome, it's nothing." The convenience store owner said.

   After exiting the convenience store, Dr. Ari smiled and said, "Don't worry now, it shouldn't be a bad person."

   "Okay, go back to the villa to deal with the treasure, I have to go back to work." Mei Daizi said.

  On the way back to the villa, Yamazaki found an elderly man in his seventies walking behind them, until the last corner, the old man walked into the woods.

   After a while, everyone returned to the villa. After entering, Yamazaki put his finger on his mouth to signal everyone to be quiet, and then whispered: "We are being followed. It is an old man. He should be outside."

   "Are you sure?" Yuanzi asked in a low voice.

   "There are no other houses around here," Yamazaki whispered.

   "Who would it be?" Lan asked in a low voice.

   "Not a good person anyway." Mei Daizi whispered.

   Yamazaki asked in a low voice, "Doctor, are you sure that your uncle did not leave any legacy?"

   "This," Dr. Aka thought for a while and whispered, "I don't know anyway."

   "Is that painter staying here to hunt for treasure?" Yuanzi asked.

   "That might really leave a treasure." Lan laughed softly.

   "So, how about we come to hunt for treasure?" Mei Daizi asked in a low voice.

   Yamazaki looked at the time, "Half an hour."

   "Just kidding, people have been looking for 30 years, how can half an hour be enough?" Yuanzi asked in a low voice.

   "Just like Yuanzi you said earlier, the dark rooms of the basement and the attic, and the wall mezzanine." Meidaizi whispered, "Just look for these invisible places. Other places must have been investigated inch by inch."

   "Well, just start looking in the basement and attic." Yuanzi whispered, "Take us, Doctor."

   "This," Dr. Aka scratched the back of his head, "There seems to be no basement or attic here."

   "There is no underground or attic?" Lan whispered, "This is too strange."

   "You said, would it be like Swan Castle?" Yuanzi asked in a small excited voice.

   "In this way, you look for the basement, and I will look for the attic on the roof." Mei Daizi whispered.

   "I'll go with you, the roof might be corrupted." Yamazaki whispered, and then whispered to the three Dr. Akas, "Don't act rashly no matter what you find."

   "Understand, maybe there will be harmful substances." Yuanzi laughed softly.

   "Go," Yamazaki said, "Pay attention to the sound under your feet, and knock on the wall by the way."

   "Understand, solid and hollow are different." Lan chuckled softly, and the three of them acted.

   Mei Daizi asked in a low voice, "Brother, what shall we do?"

   "Just take a ladder up," Yamazaki thought for a while and whispered, "Pretending to be cleaning."

   "Understood." Mei Daizi whispered.

   After a while, Yamazaki and Mi Daiko went out with a ladder and then went up to the roof.

   looked at the skylights on the roof, Yamazaki asked Mei Daizi, "What do you think?"

   Mei Daizi smiled and said, "There is a raised area without a skylight, there may be a hidden space there."

   "Go try, be careful, don't step on it." Yamazaki laughed.

   "I see." Mei Daizi moved slowly step by step, feeling that her feet were not right in the meantime, and she changed directions twice.

After walking to that area, Mei Daizi chose a leeward place and squatted down, then picked up the tile and hit it on her side. Listening to the hollow voice, she turned her head and smiled at Yamazaki: "There is really room." Then asked, "Do you want to continue?"

   "Go ahead, it's going to be demolished anyway." Yamazaki smiled.

   "That's good." Mei Daizi threw down the tile, punched her fist on one arm, and punched a hole about 20 centimeters in diameter.

After waiting for a while, a gust of wind blew, Mei Daizi quickly raised her hand to cover her nose and mouth and stood up, then stepped back to the wind and let go of her hand, "There is a rotten smell." She said she walked back from the same road, "but Would you like to be human, the scene might be ugly."

   "I hope," Yamazaki said, and then took out his mobile phone, but just about to make a call, he immediately felt danger.

   "Don't move, you two." An old man's voice sounded downstairs.

   "I won't move." Yamazaki raised his hand and said, and at the same time motioned to Mei Daizi to raise her hand, then turned to face the old man with Mei Daizi.

   "What did you find?" The old man raised his pistol in one hand and climbed up the roof with the ladder in the other. Then he looked at the hole and asked, "Damn it, why didn't I expect to demolish the house? What's in there?"

   "A lot, what do you want?" Yamazaki asked.

"Template, where is the twenty-dollar template?" The old man said excitedly, "I have been looking for a full 30 years, and now there is finally news. I'm going to make a fortune, I'm about to make a fortune. Now." He laughed.

   "Uh, uh, sorry, excuse me," Yamazaki said.

   "Don't talk nonsense, give me the template quickly." The old man exclaimed excitedly, "Give it to me quickly, hurry up."

   Yamazaki said, "No, I just want to tell you that the 20-dollar version 30 years ago seems to be out of circulation, so..."

   "You, what did you say?" The old man suspected that he had heard him wrong.

   Mei Daizi smiled and said, "It means that your dollar template is useless if you get it, and the money you make will never be used."

   "No, no." The old man was stunned.

   Taking this opportunity, Yamazaki and Mei Daizi came forward together. Yamazaki grabbed the left arm, Mei Daizi grabbed the right arm, and took the gun.

   "Let go of me, let me go quickly." The old man exclaimed excitedly, "You lie to me, you also want that template."

   "I really didn't lie to you," Yamazaki said, "I asked you to come up for fear that you would hurt the people in the house."

  " I caught you because I was afraid you would fall from upstairs~www.readwn.com~ Mei Daizi smiled.

   "What's the matter?" The three of Dr. Aka heard the movement coming out of the villa.

   "Is he the one who followed us?" Yuanzi asked.

   "Yes, let's talk about it more specifically." Yamazaki said, and then grabbed the old man's right arm and asked Mei Daizi to climb down the ladder with the gun.

   "Please, old sir." Yamazaki said, "We will not call the police, as long as you answer some questions, of course, the gun will not be returned to you unless you have a gun license."

   "I have." The old man let Yamazaki let go, and then came out with a gun license.

   Yamazaki looked at it, and said dumbfounded: "Mr. Okuda Rumaki, this thing has expired."

"It's over? No?" Okuda said, "I'm here." Then he frowned and thought, his face turned pale, and he muttered, "It turns out that it's been so long." Fall back.

   Yamazaki hurriedly held Okuda's neck, then he touched his neck, and found that there was still a heartbeat, and there was no obvious abnormality, it seemed that he had just passed out, so he was relieved.

   "What's wrong with him, brother?" Mei Daizi asked.

   Yamazaki said: "It seems to have passed out. Call Dr. Asai and ask her to send an ambulance and an epidemic prevention vehicle."

   "Anti-epidemic vehicle?" Dr. Ari was taken aback.

   "It's not an epidemic, it's a rotten remains." Yamazaki sighed, "I hope it wasn't human." After finishing speaking, he carried Okuda on his back, then carried him up and down the stairs. ...
