Coroner Coroner

Finally... behind the cover of the heavy trees in the distance, a figure slowly appeared.

Holding a shotgun with an extremely long barrel in his hand, squinting his eyes, with a cold face, he stood still under a tree tens of meters away.

And this is...

Lin Xinyi and the others met before they went up the mountain, the owner of the B&B hotel.

"Don't get excited, folks."

The hotel owner held a shotgun in his hand, but his tone was very gentle:

"I was just idle and bored and went hunting in the mountains."

"It just happened to meet you here."

"There's no need to be so rude to me, is there?"

"correct…"

He also asked quite curiously:

"When I was just approaching, I just heard you say...'The murderer has been found'?"

"So you are all the policemen here to investigate this case?"

The tone of the homestay owner was very subtle.

Between the words, there is still a bit of innocence and curiosity.

But neither the police officer Jianggu nor Belmode would be so foolish as to believe that the homestay owner happened to be carrying a shotgun and happened to "pass by" when they were investigating the scene.

And Lin Xinyi directly tore off the mask of the homestay owner:

"Stop pretending."

"Yes, we've found the murderer—"

"Because you are the murderer!"

Lin Xin knew from the beginning that the murderer was in this mountain at this time.

And there is usually no one in this deep mountain.

Now the hotel owner suddenly appeared with a gun, almost clearly writing the word "murderer" on his face.

So Lin Xinyi can be sure that he is the murderer.

And this can explain a lot of things at the same time:

"It should be you who peeped at Chris and me outside the door yesterday?"

"I think when you checked in at the front desk yesterday, you already recognized me as Officer Lin of the Metropolitan Police Department."

"Because my fame makes you nervous."

"You are worried that your crime will be exposed because of my investigation."

"That's why you sneaked out of my room late at night, trying to eavesdrop on my conversation with Chris and see how much we know about the truth of this case."

"But because of Caesar's obstruction, you failed to get any information from me."

"So today... after seeing us going into the mountain for investigation, you put on your shotgun again with great anxiety, and followed you to the scene of the crime."

"But your concealment skills are too bad."

"Just got a little closer, didn't hear anything, and was picked out by Caesar again!"

Lin Xinyi reasoned and restored, and made the hotel owner's face ugly.

He finally had to tear off the disguise completely:

"Hehe... That's right."

"As expected of Manager Lin of the Metropolitan Police Department—"

"I don't even know where I made a mistake, but you have already caught me."

"But, you made a mistake..."

The homestay owner sneered and picked up the shotgun:

"I came back here today not to eavesdrop on the progress of your case."

"You..." Lin Xinyi looked strange: "Are you trying to kill us here?"

"Hahaha...that's right!"

This seemingly simple and honest middle-aged man laughed grinningly:

"If you want to blame it, blame yourself for being too famous, Manager Lin."

"It's like seeing a cockroach disappear under my bed, and just thinking about a guy like you watching this case from the shadows makes me uncomfortable."

"So I was thinking all night last night—"

"Whether you find me out now or not, I will get you out of here!"

"And now it seems that I made the right decision."

"You actually found me."

"Hehe, since that's the case..."

He looked coldly at Lin Xinyi, Police Officer Jianggu, and Belmode from a distance:

"Then I can only invite you to die!"

"..." There was a strange silence.

Officer Jianggu sighed helplessly.

The corner of Belmode's mouth curled into a taunt.

Lin Xinyi couldn't hold back and asked back:

"Hey Hey hey…"

"You know that the three of us are policemen who are here to investigate the case, yet you still have the guts to fight us with guns?"

"Don't forget, our police also have guns!"

"So what if you have a gun?" The owner of the homestay still had an inexplicable confidence.

He stood in the distance and looked over with disdain:

"The policemen in the forensics section, how good are your spear skills?"

"I am the hunter with the best spear skills within a few hundred miles."

The owner of the homestay is not an ordinary man, so he is so confident:

"The hunting circle said that Gunma County's 'Sharp Spear unparalleled' is here!"

"And the three of you... hehe."

"I'm afraid the trigger hasn't been touched a few times?"

Before he started the fight, he taunted Lin Xinyi, Jiang Gu Ling, and Belmode in terms of marksmanship.

And Lin Xinyi couldn't stand criminals pretending to be in front of him:

"Oh, don't think too highly of yourself, uncle."

"Do you think we are those ordinary police officers?"

"Let me tell you... I, Chris, Police Officer Jianggu, the marksmanship of the three of us combined, the team shooting medal in the Olympics is not a problem!"

This criminal has boasted that he is "the best shot in the world".

Lin Xinyi simply named himself an Olympic-level shooting master.

This dealt a severe blow to the opponent's arrogance.

Perhaps it was for his courage to take the next action of one against three, only to hear the owner of the hotel disdain to shout:

"Even if your marksmanship is really good enough, so what?"

"The pistols that the police are equipped with are nothing more than some New Southern M60 revolvers, this kind of garbage that can't kill people more than ten meters away."

"And now we are at a distance of more than 40 meters. Even if we use a professional military pistol, we can only rely on luck to hit the enemy at this distance."

"Manager Lin..."

"Are you sure that the broken revolver equipped by your Metropolitan Police Department can be more accurate than the Remington M870 shotgun equipped with a slug in my hand at this distance?"

A slug is a shotgun that does not contain a dozen small lead pellets, but only one "big iron lump".

The long-barreled M870 shotgun is equipped with a slug, and the effective range can be increased from 40 meters to 90 meters.

Not only does it have a long range, but it also has high accuracy, and the damage is extremely terrifying. It can kill a rhino with one blow.

Compared with ordinary police firearms, the hotel owner has an absolute advantage in weapons and equipment.

"Oh." Lin Xinyi scoffed at this, "It's just a shotgun."

"Your gun is sharp, but my gun is not bad!"

As soon as the words were finished, Lin Xinyi opened his suit jacket and took out a truncated Remington M870 from his pocket.

That appearance, that momentum, is quite like a thug in a suit in a mafia movie.

This startled the homestay owner.

He didn't expect that the Japanese police didn't bring their broken police revolvers when they went out, but started to bring such violent short-barreled shotguns.

But he calmed down and thought for a while...

"Ha ha ha ha."

The homestay owner couldn't help laughing out loud:

"It seems that you really don't know how to play with guns, Manager Lin."

"Although we all use the Remington M870, my Remington 870 is an ultra-long model with a barrel of 762mm."

"And your Remington 870 is a pocket item with the barrel shortened to the limit."

"Just such a small barrel length... I am afraid that if the distance exceeds 20 meters, the bullet will have no power at all, right?"
