"As for these local elders, I specially invited them here."

Lin Xinyi simply explained the situation.

"You..." Shimabukuro Junhui's expression changed for a while.

In the end, she quietly became calm and natural: "Mr. Lin, what do you want to say?"

"Call the police and these uncles here, is there something to do with Heijiang?"

She pretended to be silly in a calm tone.

And Lin Xinyi didn't point it out.

He just sighed slightly, then turned his head to look at the brightly lit Heijiang house in front of him:

"Don't be nervous, Miss Shimabukuro."

"I asked everyone to come here just to be a witness."

"Witness?" Shimabukuro Junhui's eyes moved slightly: "Witness what?"

"Witness the truth."

"the truth…"

Junhui Shimabukuro murmured out these two words.

But this time there was no question mark.

Because she already knew in her heart what the "truth" Lin Xinyi wanted to tell would be.

"It all started with the fire three years ago."

Under the witness of those local elders and county police officers, Lin Xinyi slowly began to "sing":

"Three years ago, a fire broke out in the warehouse of the shrine, and a middle-aged woman died in the fire."

"Because the body was found without a calf, the legend of the 'mermaid corpse' that later became a sensation throughout the country was detonated."

"But Miss Shimabukuro..."

"You should be very clear that the deceased is not a 'mermaid' at all."

"She's just an ordinary middle-aged woman, and... your mother."

Lin Xinyi told the truth back then.

Junhui Shimabukuro was a little surprised.

She was not surprised that Lin Xinyi would know the truth, but that when Lin Xinyi told the shocking truth, the local elders present were not shocked at all.

Did they already hear from Mr. Lin in advance?

Or…

The fact is just the other way around?

"Mr. Lin's news came from us."

"We already knew."

Those local elders sighed deeply.

They looked at Junhui Shimabukuro with shame on their expressions:

"We knew earlier that the longevity mother-in-law was played by your mother."

"And after the shrine fire three years ago, when we heard the information from the prefectural police that 'the deceased was a middle-aged woman', we also realized that something may have happened to your mother."

"Jun Hui, we originally planned to announce the truth and build a grave for your mother in a dignified way."

"But seeing you try so hard to play the longevity mother-in-law, we..."

These elders hesitated to speak.

Because no matter what high-sounding reasons they find, others can see the real reason why these people hide the truth at a glance:

They hope that the "longevity mother-in-law" will continue to exist.

The island of America also needs this characteristic tourism industry.

Junhui Shimabukuro is helping everyone in the village to make money.

However, Junhui Shimabukuro still volunteers.

No wages, no dividends, selfless dedication.

Of course, the villagers are happy to see such a good thing like a pie in the sky.

Moreover, if an ordinary master and witch earns the title of "Longevity Mother-in-law", it is estimated that she will have made a lot of money and amassed countless fortunes.

Immediately afterwards, he ran around the village to enclose land, build houses and build mansions, and become a tyrant in the village and a wealthy country gentry that everyone respects.

If the master himself has a bit of business acumen, then there must be some basic operations of entrepreneurs:

First use its own financial advantages to buy the land and hills and restaurant houses on the American island, and then expand the commercial territory step by step, gradually monopolizing the island's catering, accommodation, tourism, and transportation.

In the end, the island of America became the private territory of the "Shimabukuro family", and the legend of the mermaid became the copyright IP of the "Shimabukuro group".

Let yourself be promoted from an ordinary person to a Brahmin, and also let the villagers change from "partners" to stinky workers.

At that time, everyone in the village will have to work hard for her.

After selling my life, I have to thank Master Shimabukuro for the meal.

It's not like now...

All the money was earned by the villagers.

Not even a word of thanks.

After a long time, some people even got used to Shimabukuro's dedication and took her dedication for granted.

"Sorry…"

Several elders bowed and apologized to this junior in shame:

"We have made you suffer too much all these years."

"Miss Junhui, we all owe you...thank you!"

"..." Shimabukuro Junhui was silent for a while.

It turned out that everyone knew the truth, but kept it secret.

A word of thanks was three years late.

This made her a little hard to accept.

But Junhui Shimabukuro quickly adjusted back.

Thought she had volunteered to serve her hometown from the very beginning, without expecting anything in return.

Although the responses of the villagers over the past three years were a bit chilling, Junhui Shimabukuro finally chose to accept it.

Because good people should be pointed at guns.

Human nature has always been like this.

It has always been so.

She understands, and...

"That's not the point today."

Junhui Shimabukuro looked at Lin Xinyi with complicated eyes:

"Yes, the deceased three years ago was my mother."

"I also played the role of the long-lived mother-in-law."

"Mr. Lin, I lied to you before and obstructed your investigation."

"so…"

She paused for a moment, and took the initiative to point out the topic:

"So you're starting to doubt me, aren't you?"

"Yeah." Lin Xinyi also nodded calmly.

He continued unhurriedly:

"Since then, I have begun to suspect that there is something hidden behind the old fire case three years ago."

"And the line of blood in Saori Kadowaki's house also mentioned 'fire of sin'."

"Add to that the extremely abnormal performances of Shanghai Laoyuan Sumi and Heijiang Naoko."

"After some trials, I can basically confirm:"

"The three of them are related to your mother's death that year."

After Lin Xinyi said these words, he looked at Junhui Shimabukuro with deep eyes.

But this witch lady was not nervous.

She even continued Lin Xinyi's words with a calm demeanor:

"So you suspect that the three of them killed my mother."

"And in order to avenge my mother, I killed Kadowaki Saori and Ebihara Sumi one after another."

"But I didn't expect that Saori would send you a distress letter to Mr. Lin before he was alive, so that he invited the best police officer in Tokyo, my Mr. Idol, to come to me."

"So you easily saw through my plan."

"And judge my vengeance will not stop there."

"So Mr. Lin, you called these policemen to squat secretly at the gate of Heijiang's house, waiting to catch me when I do something—"

"Right?"

Shimabukuro Kimie spoke unhurriedly.

The tone is flat and natural, but it doesn't make people feel provocative.

She just thought about it, and then asked very puzzled:
